Chapter 1159: Abnormal Humans
āItās already been several minutesā¦ā
In the Corridor on the first floor, Mu Chen was pressed tightly against one side of the wall, nervously scanning left and rightā¦
āI havenāt encountered any attacks so far. Could it be because someone has taken some kind of countermeasure? Hmm⦠Speaking of which, the last thing I heard was from Black Silk. I didnāt catch the whole thing, but the second half of āstand stillā⦠should mean not to move⦠And thinking back carefully, the spot where she was standing was the one closest to the staircase.ā
Mu Chen looked toward the empty staircase⦠In fact, there were still several people between him and the staircase, but the incident happened so suddenly that he couldnāt remember who was in front of him, nor could he figure out their exact positions. The only thing he was sure of at the time was that there was āno one on either sideā of him; otherwise, he wouldnāt have dared to press himself against the wall so easily.
āAs for Yu Shiran, who entered first, she should also be nearby⦠In other words, as long as the Black Silk captain can pinpoint Yu Shiranās position, she can go straight to the second floor⦠This deduction is simple, and Iām sure Iām not the only one who thought of it. Even if the others didnāt, they should still be waiting patiently.ā
Just as Mu Chen thought of this, his expression suddenly turned grim.
āNo, I missed an abnormal humanā¦ā
In the silence, Mu Chen, standing there alone, suddenly felt his scalp tingleā¦
Acting rashly is an opportunity, but also a risk.
Facing an enemy whose species is unknown, itās best to be as cautious as possibleā¦
āBut that madman⦠he probably wonāt take the usual pathā¦ā
Creak-
Yuwen Xuan gently pushed open a door behind him, then slowly backed into the room.
As he entered, he still kept close to the wall, but once inside, he relaxed completely.
āHmm⦠Here, I shouldnāt have to worry about running into anyone⦠And I can better deal with any possible attacks. Ah, if only everyone could hide in a room.ā
Yuwen Xuan closed the door behind him and looked around.
āI happened to stop outside this room; the others probably arenāt so lucky. They should all be in the Corridor now. Unable to move, theyāre no different from stationary targets. If the enemy has a knife, they can easily approach us. But⦠no trap is invincible. So even if the enemy can get close, they might still reveal a flaw.ā
āThe shield on us is also a kind of energy. No matter what kind of attack the enemy uses, it will collide with this force⦠If they use a gun to attack from a fixed spot, it might even directly expose their position.ā šÆĆ„ĪÓ฿Šį¹”
āBut thatās not the key point⦠The main thing is⦠the enemyās primary target is Ling Mo and his group.ā
If theyāre the target, then the attack should have happened as soon as they were caught.
āHmm⦠underestimated⦠Looks like the enemy thinks that as long as they trap us for a while, itāll be enough. By then, even if theyāve spent a lot of energy, itāll be easy to deal with us.ā
Yuwen Xuan took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, then a ball of Flame appeared on his fingertip. He shoved both hands into his pockets and walked further into the room.
āI used to think I could help them a lot⦠but now I realize, even if I helped him guard the miracle, the foundation still came from himself. Although he did use the miracleās power, to be honest, it wasnāt much. On the other hand, this new Base came with all sorts of bonuses⦠like threats from Falcon, internal observation, and restless ambitions⦠My usual absence became a deterrent, but now it doesnāt work anymore. Ling Mo obviously knows this too, which is why he left Falcon alone for now and rushed out to look for food and weapons. Once that batch of food is brought back, at least morale will stabilize. And if he gets this batch, then heāll really be rolling in resourcesā¦ā
āNo matter what, what Iāve helped with is really too littleā¦ā
āJust like back then⦠without power⦠youāll be underestimated⦠theyāll protect me, but wonāt rely on meā¦ā
He stared at the cigarette in his mouth⦠Clearly, he couldnāt see any smoke.
Once the trap was fully activated, all they could see was a fixed scene.
An empty, desolate office buildingā¦
āI know Iām not strong⦠but I still have to prove that Iām not so easily messed with.ā
Only by being strong enough⦠can I roam the world like Ling Moā¦
And only then, might I be able to find herā¦
āI hope that when I find you, Iām stronger than you⦠That way, I can be the one to protect youā¦ā
This was a not-too-large office, divided into an Inner Room and an outer room.
Yuwen Xuan walked straight into the Inner Room, then looked at the window.
Outside the shattered window was nothing but wild grass, and not a sound came from outside. But Yuwen Xuan knew, this was only the scene he could see and hear.
āMaybe Ling Mo and the others have already engaged the enemy.ā
Yuwen Xuan stared out the window for a moment, then took the cigarette from his mouth.
Holding the cigarette, he reached it toward the window.
āJudging from what happened earlier⦠the enemyās shield probably covers the entire granary. But no matter what, there will always be weak spots left behind⦠For example, places left for their own people to pass through.ā
Thereās no such thing as a shield that recognizes people⦠The reason some people arenāt affected is because the superhuman who cast it deliberately weakened the effect on them. The stronger they are, the more precise their control over energy. But if theyāre not strong enough, they can only deliberately leave some loopholes to make sure their own people arenāt affected. And this way, it also reduces some energy consumption.
To cover a granary like this, the enemyās strength is certainly not weak. But no matter how strong, itās impossible to cover such a large area and still take care of all their own people without a single leak⦠Thatās too hard.
Maybe one person could do it, but this time, itās clearly more than one layer of shield.
āSo⦠I have a chance to find these loopholes⦠Thatās what I can do right nowā¦ā
Yuwen Xuanās hand suddenly paused, he sawā¦
On the dimly glowing tip of the cigarette, a faint wisp of smoke finally drifted upā¦
āThe shieldās⦠weak spot⦠is right here.ā
