Chapter 543: Seed Parasitism

Chapter 543: Chapter 543: Seed Parasitism

Wang Liang’s eyes widened as he stared at the image on his phone, and for a moment, he actually began to feel sympathy for the zombies inside.

Thinking about the seed that had just been planted behind his back, Wang Liang couldn’t help but feel a chill run down his spine.

If he displeased the members of the Heart Talk Team, he could end up in the same situation.

"I understand, if I have any news, I will try to communicate it to you or to Wei Junhao’s side,"

Now, Wang Liang was completely honest, with nothing but fear in his heart.

Suddenly, he felt a great relief all over, as the layers of vines wrapped around him had vanished.

"Since you have agreed, you are now one of us. Brother, there’s no need to be too frightened; we in the Heart Talk Team are all good people,"

Lin Xiuyuan also stepped forward to help up Wang Liang, who was numb all over. He patted Wang Liang on the shoulder, and his beaming smile eased Wang Liang’s mind, hoping his choice was not mistaken.

"When you get back, if Han Yue asks, just say that you came back because you heard us say we lent the Mysterious Fire Fan to the base, so you thought you couldn’t get the item,"

Lu Hao spoke, knowing that if they didn’t spread the news about lending the Mysterious Fire Fan to the base, Wang Liang’s return would surely arouse Han Yue’s suspicion.

Thus after consulting with Liang Jiuhui, they decided to "lend" the Mysterious Fire Fan to the base; in reality, they rented it to the base for safety’s sake. Indeed, Lu Hao even had Liang Jiuhui sign a contract, tentatively setting the rent at 8000 crystal cores per day.

"Alright, I understand,"

Wang Liang thought he could leave now, but unexpectedly, Su Jin brought in some piping hot meals from outside.

"It’s all freshly made. Eat before you leave,"

Su Jin continued to urge with a smile.

This smile, however, sent chills down Wang Liang’s spine. Could they have poisoned the food?

"Relax, there’s no poison. Don’t think so poorly of us. We treated you like that earlier because you offended us first, didn’t you? Now we’re giving you a way out and even thought of a way to make it easier for you to explain to your boss. We even let you eat your fill before leaving, isn’t it because we value your abilities?"

Lin Xiuyuan persuaded earnestly, almost as if they were benevolent saviors of the world.

Wang Liang froze, and thought, Yes! It was he who had sneaked into someone else’s house. If it were at the Han Family’s place, he would definitely have been executed on the spot, not to mention being given a way out.

And the Heart Talk Team was actually valuing his skills?

"Thank you, I will do my best!"

Wang Liang said, savoring the aroma of the meals which soon filled the room.

When he tasted the savory and tender braised pork prepared by the Heart Talk Team, this man, who hadn’t eaten for several meals, almost swallowed his tongue, and there were even pickled crisp cucumbers and a large bowl of bone sauce!

Even if the meals were poisoned, he would still eat them all!

Wang Liang felt as if he had come back to life, realizing how easy it was to betray.

"There’s one more thing, don’t underestimate Han Yue, he is a special ability user,"

Lu Hao remembered to mention this just as he was about to walk out the door.

Wang Liang’s piece of braised pork slipped from his chopsticks and fell.

What? Han Yue is a special ability user? He never knew this before.

"What kind of special ability user is he?" Wang Liang asked.

"A Mental Element Ability User, that is what you referred to earlier as the Sixth Sense. But it’s not just the Sixth Sense—he naturally has the ability to perceive. He can sense where there are zombies and dangers nearby, and also detect how many people or zombies there are in places that others can’t see,"

Lu Hao continued to explain, "So your invisibility ability doesn’t work in front of him."

At the same time Wang Liang was shocked, he thought of some things, feeling an extreme chill in his heart.

During a blizzard, when encountering zombies, Han Yue seemed to need protection, but always led them to the most dangerous places. In the next second, the companions with him would be tackled by zombies from the snow, and Han Yue, who had no special ability, repeatedly dodged the danger. If it weren’t for his quick reactions at the time, he might have had to block the zombies for Han Yue.

Moreover, among those special ability users who had died, one was his childhood friend, who had always been working for the Han family. He never expected that this time, they truly gave their lives for them.

"I will be careful,"

Wang Liang nodded in response, feeling somewhat grateful that Lu Hao had told him this. It showed that the Han family members didn’t really trust them; they merely used them as tools.

With this thought, the last bit of guilt in his heart completely vanished.

Su Jin didn’t expect that winning over Wang Liang would go so smoothly. She felt that even without planting the seed, Wang Liang might still have listened to them, but leaving the seed was necessary, just in case.

"Hehe, I did well just now, right? He’s actually quite easy to coax,"

After they went upstairs, Lin Xiuyuan praised himself with a chuckle.

"Hmm, not bad,"

Lu Hao also smiled. He had Lin Xiuyuan follow him to act as a peacemaker, and Lin Xiuyuan clearly had a talent for it.

"All set?"

Xue Wanyi and the others were waiting in the hall, surprised to see the three return so quickly. Had the enemy turned traitor that easily?

"Definitely all set. A carrot and a stick, my brother-in-law speaks the truth,"

Lin Xiuyuan whispered to everyone, his brother-in-law being knowledgeable, always giving advice that worked.

Wang Liang didn’t stay downstairs for long; after eating, he left the Heart Talk Team’s villa in an invisible state, as Lu Hao had instructed.

"He’s gone,"

Mao Qiqi said.

"Can he send any messages? Make sure he doesn’t secretly come back next time,"

Lin Tianhui said worriedly.

They had already discussed it before; it was mainly because she had opened the door when she came back from her promotion that day and hadn’t entered the house immediately, which allowed Wang Liang to sneak in. The thought of being in the house with an invisible person was still frightening to her, fortunately, she had locked the door that day.

"I don’t expect him to send any messages, but killing him would have been troublesome,"

Lu Hao said, referring to Wei Junhao and Lian Zongren who had come with Han Yue and Wang Liang. They didn’t understand Lian Zongren’s character. If they had dealt with both, they couldn’t guarantee B City wouldn’t find out, so they had to downplay the situation.

"Mom, don’t worry, I already scared him off; he definitely won’t dare to come back,"

Su Jin said while sharing with her family the way she had intimidated Wang Liang.

"It can be done like this? A parasitic seed?"

Nie Qing asked with interest, wondering when the girl had figured this out.

"I thought of it while fighting zombies. I also specially treated the seed with the wood element ability, and no wound was left on his back,"

Su Jin said with a smile.

"This skill is great, the wood element is really convenient; it can be used for eating vegetables, fighting, and playing tricks. Xiao Tian, you keep it up!"

Liao Yifan encouraged Yin Chengtian.
