"Is Miss Tang alright?"

Actually, Yu Sen felt that his question was nonsense.

Half an hour ago, Yu Lin, who had excitedly called them back, seemed to have seen something exciting. He suddenly closed the car door and stopped them outside, saying that Boss and Teacher Tang were undergoing special treatment and told them not to disturb them.

Everyone instantly understood.

According to their daily treatment efficiency, they thought that they would have to stay outside for two hours, so they simply cleaned up the exotic beast meat outside and separated the beast blood.

They didn't expect it to end so quickly this time.

Although they didn't smell anything suspicious, they saw that Boss's clothes had been torn into rags and thrown on the ground, and there were a few hickeys on his neck. It was obvious that Teacher Gou hadn't done anything serious in the past half an hour, and their Boss had been ravaged.

On the other hand, Gou Liang's rosy complexion and affectionate eyes were leaning against Shi Buyu's chest with a satisfied smile on his face. Compared to them, who were so worried that they didn't dare to sleep the entire night, he looked like he couldn't be any better.

Gou Liang nodded and said, "I've awakened my second ability."

Everyone was surprised and happy, and hurriedly asked what ability it was.

Gou Liang rubbed Shi Buyu's arm. Even though time had been reversed and they had missed the time when they were surrounded by exotic beasts, the hidden danger in Shi Buyu's body still existed.

He could totally imagine how Shi Buyu and the others had been wiped out in "The End of the Era". With their abilities, it was only a matter of time before they would inevitably be injured and bleed to death against the high level beasts in Shanghai. And once Shi Buyu bled, the pure soul power in his blood would cause the Rank 6 and 7 exotic beasts, or even higher, to chase after him.

It was as if the ending was destined.

However, Gou Liang naturally wouldn't allow history to repeat itself in this space-time.

Since he had slept for twenty-four hours for no reason, wasn't this the best time to awaken his ability?

After Gou Liang used his Level-4 Stillness ability, the happiest person was Shi Buyu.

He had always been worried that Gou Liang would be at a disadvantage if his special ability didn't have any offensive properties. Although the special ability he awakened this time wasn't a direct offensive one, it wouldn't be easy for exotic beasts or superhumans to bully him.

Although there had never been a case of a second awakening before, this kind of good thing was, of course, the more the better. The team was so happy that they had a big meal to celebrate.

The next day, Gou Liang and Shi Buyu encountered the Level Six Four-Winged Dragon at the seaside again. This time, they weren't in a sorry state from being chased around. With Gou Liang's Stillness ability, Shi Buyu didn't have to spend too much effort to obtain his first Level Six Exotic Beast Pill.

Three months passed just like that. The world was heading towards the unknown.

Ju Bei, who was far away in Kyushu Base, asked the superhumans a few times about Shi Buyu. He was so shocked that he nearly lost his composure on the spot when he learned that not only was Shi Buyu alive and well in the south, he was even slaughtering exotic beasts.

-How is this possible?

-How did this world become so twisted? -

Ju Bei couldn't accept the fact that other people loved and respected Shi Buyu like a god of war, and respected Gou Liang like a national treasure. Then, he looked at himself and Jia Nanzhu who were treated like dirt by the ignorant survivors.

Ju Bei was deeply affected by the fact that he had fallen from being the main character to a supporting role. He was depressed for a long time, and no longer blindly worshipped Jia Nanzhu like before.

Until half a month later, Jia Nanzhu made a shocking move that turned their passive situation around.

— — He robbed and killed the supply team that was escorting the Beast Pills back to the base!

That day, the ten-man team of Rank 2 superhumans he was in met with an accident while carrying out a hunting mission outside the base.

It wasn't easy for a Rank 2 superhuman to hunt a Rank 1 exotic beast alone, but it wasn't too difficult either. The ten of them were invincible when they worked together. As such, everyone in the team felt that their hunting speed was too slow. Someone suggested using the Beast Pills to lure the exotic beasts, and using traps to kill them.

Although the plan was good, they were too careless in the end and attracted a group of Giant Ants, almost wiping out the entire team.

Jia Nanzhu was lucky enough to survive because he happened to encounter the supply team of Beast Pills on their way back to the city, and received their help.

They suffered heavy casualties in the fierce battle with the Giant Ants, and three members of the supply team were heavily injured.

Jia Nanzhu and the other Rank 2 superhuman who survived thanked them profusely. However, they didn't manage to send out a signal for help after boarding the transport plane. It turned out that the communication and navigation equipment on the transport plane had malfunctioned on their way back to the city. They searched in the air for a long time but still deviated from their route, which was why they met Jia Nanzhu's team outside the base.

Looking at the hundreds of Rank 2, Rank 3, and Rank 4 Beast Pills stored on the transport plane, Jia Nanzhu had an evil thought.

After killing the four heavily injured people, he casually threw the transport plane away and used his Earth Attribute ability to create a scene where the transport plane exploded when it fell from a high altitude, before burying the Beast Pills in another place.

Ju Bei's Space Attribute ability became his only option to smuggle these Beast Pills.

He told Ju Bei that he rescued these Beast Pills from the transport plane. However, Ju Bei wasn't an idiot. Looking at the Beast Pills buried in the ground with their serial numbers and packaging, he knew that things weren't as simple as Jia Nanzhu said.

However, he didn't know if he still had a trace of hope for Jia Nanzhu, or if he was still brooding over the protagonist's aura. He played the fool and willingly became Jia Nanzhu's accomplice.

Gou Liang, who had lost the system's real-time monitoring, only found out about this five months later.

During this time, his whole heart was devoted to Shi Buyu. Ever since he found out that his boyfriend was actually the King God above all things, Gou Liang still couldn't get used to it.

He didn't know if it was because of uneasiness or something else, but he turned into a clingy little minx and used his own methods to repeatedly confirm the fact that he belonged to him. He didn't restrain himself even when Yu Lin and the others made fun of him for being even more thirsty due to his hunger disorder.

Shi Buyu enjoyed his closeness. The two of them were busy being sweet, so how could they have the time to watch other people's fun?

However, when Lieutenant General Yao explained the situation, Gou Liang immediately locked onto the suspect.

Lieutenant General Yao: "In the past six months, there have been four crashes of transport planes. All of them were caused by the navigation and communication equipment on the planes failing to connect and then crashing, causing heavy casualties and loss of beast cores. I've sent people to investigate the areas where the accidents happened, but they didn't find anything suspicious. "

He couldn't find any evidence of human activity, but he was more worried that an alien beast with the ability to disrupt magnetic fields had appeared in the north. This was why he wanted to ask them to come back to Kyushu Base.

Shi Buyu naturally didn't refuse.

After the call ended, Yu Sen said, "The detection of alien beasts with abilities has never stopped. Although the line of death has moved a little further north, it shouldn't have appeared in a place as far away as Kyushu Base."

"Everything is possible. It's not impossible that the alien beast has been living in the north since the beginning." After a pause, Yu Lin said, "But why do I feel like it's more likely that someone is behind this?"

Gou Liang, who had already reviewed the recent monitoring data of Kyushu, said, "It's not a possibility, it's a fact."

*

"Zhu Ge, the base has been investigating this matter. Do you think they'll call Shi Buyu and the others back?"

"Why are you mentioning them?"

After the midnight show, Jia Nanzhu was sitting on the edge of the bed smoking. When he heard Ju Bei mention Shi Buyu, he immediately frowned and flicked the ash from his cigarette.

Ju Bei was very uneasy. In his opinion, Shi Buyu — no, Fatty Tang, who had changed everything, was his nemesis. Ever since he appeared, the trajectory of the world had changed. The glory and glory that should have belonged to him and Jia Nanzhu had been snatched away by Shi Buyu and the other cannon fodder supporting roles.

He was unwilling, but there was nothing he could do. When he thought of them, he felt more fear than hatred.

"Zhu Ge, I know you don't like to hear this, but I don't know how strong their abilities are now. I'm worried …"

"Worried about what? You're worried that my ability will be weaker than theirs? "

Jia Nanzhu sneered and said, "I'm now the only level 4 ability user in the base. Even Yao Sanjun is no match for me. How can they be stronger than Yao Sanjun?"

Ju Bei didn't use a single one of the Beast Dans that he had stolen. Instead, all of them were given to him. This allowed Jia Nanzhu, a Rank 2 Metahuman who relied on the base to level up slowly, to become a Rank 4 Metahuman within half a year.

In the entire Kyushu Base, his ability level was the highest.

Jia Nanzhu judged others by himself. He didn't believe that Yao Sanjun would allow someone stronger than him to threaten his position. He believed that Shi Buyu and the others were at most level 3 ability users. Although he was afraid of Shi Buyu's lightning ability, Jia Nanzhu was also very confident in his own level 4 ability. He didn't take those low-level ability users seriously at all.

"Zhu Ge, don't forget about that Tang Tang's ability." Ju Bei wasn't as optimistic as him. "What if he sees the residual energy of our abilities at the scene of the incident? Also, I heard that he can see through the level of ability users. If he finds out your level … we only have you now. It's not safe for us to go up against them. "

He couldn't explain his anxiety.

The feeling that things were completely out of control made Ju Bei feel afraid of Gou Liang.

"You're right."

Shi Buyu took a deep drag on his cigarette. His eyes were full of ruthlessness. "If that's the case, then let them accompany those transport personnel and never return to the base."

What a bold statement.

Seeing this, Gou Liang sneered.

The next day, Gou Liang and the others packed up and drove the armored vehicle to meet the Kyushu Base's team of ability users in the Death Zone. They borrowed a helicopter to return to Kyushu Base.

When they passed through a certain section of the road outside Kyushu Base, the navigation and communication devices were indeed disrupted.

Gou Liang curled his lips and said, "Let me have a taste of the electronic technology of that exotic beast."

His fingers flashed across the keyboard like a thousand shadows, and a string of characters scrolled across the screen at an amazing speed. Ever since his ability had been upgraded to Level 5, Gou Liang's physique had changed again. Although he was still unable to break through the 169cm height limit, his speed and strength had increased by another level. Well, the best proof of this was Boss Shi's clothes, which were the most frequently scrapped.

Zhou Gao laughed. "I also want to know which exotic beast is so awesome that it can actually challenge our Miss Tang."

They looked at the dazzling screen with great interest. Although they couldn't understand what was going on, they were all waiting to see Gou Liang beat the crap out of the other party.

Yu Sen said, "Captain, should we …?" He pointed at the ground below the helicopter.

"Relax, we won't be able to escape."

Shi Buyu patted his shoulder. Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, the computer screen in front of Gou Liang suddenly lit up with fireworks, followed by the sound of machines exploding on the ground.

Gou Liang touched the space between his eyebrows. When he turned around, the navigation and communication devices on the screen had already returned to normal. He said, "Level 4 earth ability user, he's destroying the evidence."

"Level 4? Looks like all the beast cores Kyushu lost went into this bastard's stomach! "

Qin Bei cursed.

Shi Buyu said, "Don't dawdle. Old Qin, follow him and see if he has any other accomplices. There's no need to rush."

"Yes!"

Qin Bei saluted and jumped out of the helicopter. He glided with the wind and chased after the Level 4 earth ability user according to Gou Liang's instructions.

The Level 4 ability user who committed the crime was very cautious. Even if he entered no man's land, he didn't move above ground. Like a burrowing rat, he burrowed through the ground and returned to Kyushu Base. The route he took was very circuitous. It was obvious that he had already figured out the underground route and was a habitual offender. If it weren't for Gou Liang's vision ability, which was more accurate than a detector, he might have really escaped.

Qin Bei chased after him all the way to Kyushu Base. Only then did he realize that it was an old acquaintance!

If it weren't for Shi Buyu telling him not to do anything in advance, he really wanted to drag this stinky rat out and give him a good beating!

On the other side, Shi Buyu brought Gou Liang's group of six and Lieutenant General Yao to meet with the higher-ups.

Both sides were very excited to meet after two years.

Compared to the time when they met through the electric current, when the hope of survival for mankind was slim and the atmosphere was heavy, the meeting this time was much more relaxed and pleasant.

Now that the development of Kyushu Base had stabilized, and the ability users didn't head north, they already had the strength to contend with Level 1 beasts. In the long run, generation after generation of ability users would be nurtured, and they would be able to survive even if they had to face Level 1 beasts.

Lieutenant General Yao said emotionally, "Major General Shi, it's all thanks to you! If it weren't for your generosity, the survivors would probably still be struggling, and would be forced to hide in the basement by Level 1 beasts without seeing the light of day. "

Shi Buyu smiled and said, "Chief, you're speaking more and more like an instructor now."

Lieutenant General Yao laughed heartily, "Kid, you don't know. Only after taking charge of this matter did I realize that just practicing martial arts isn't enough. If I'm not good at talking, it's really hard to move forward."

While they were talking, Qin Bei walked over on the wind.

"Boss, so it's that grandson Jia Nanzhu — —" Seeing Lieutenant General Yao, Qin Bei suddenly stopped in his hasty footsteps, saluted on the spot, and said loudly, "Huaxia's First Army, Major Qin Bei reporting! Salute to the chief! "

"Salute!"

Lieutenant General Yao returned the salute, then smiled and said, "Seeing you young people so energetic, I'm relieved."

Shi Buyu smiled and said, "Chief, there's still a lot of things for you to worry about. Oh right, you said before that you were going to preside over my and Xiao Kener's wedding. I don't want to wait any longer this time. "

"Look at how impatient you are. Even Miss Tang feels embarrassed for you."

"I'm impatient too."

Gou Liang put his mouth together.

Lieutenant General Yao hadn't stopped laughing since he saw them. Hearing this, he laughed even more happily.

It was obvious that he had sacrificed a lot for the survival base, and the pressure he had to bear was also extraordinary. He had aged very quickly in the past two years, but the long-lost smile on his face now made him look ten years younger. He said, "Okay, you guys have delayed this for long enough. I also want to do it as soon as possible. My hair is turning white from waiting for this wedding."

The group of people talked and laughed as they walked into Lieutenant General Yao's office. Then, they started to talk about business.

"Major Qin, did you just say that the person who robbed and killed the transport team was Jia Nanzhu?"

Speaking of this matter, Lieutenant General Yao's expression was only left with a serious expression.

Qin Bei nodded and said, "Lieutenant General, Major General, I followed them all the way and saw that grandson come out of the ground with my own eyes. Ju Bei was there to meet him. They already knew that they had been exposed when they failed this time. Now, they are probably planning to escape. That grandson is very cunning and knows the way underground very well. We have to make a move as soon as possible. "

After Lieutenant General Yao understood the level of Jia Nanzhu's ability, he specially asked the volunteer Zhou Gao and Qin Bei to follow the base's disciplinary team to arrest Jia Nanzhu.

Unexpectedly, they were still one step too late. Jia Nanzhu and Ju Bei had already disappeared without a trace.

However, their neighbor, Ji Guangyuan, found the disciplinary team and said, "I want to report Jia Nanzhu and Ju Bei for stealing beast pills!"

Ji Guangyuan noticed that Jia Nanzhu's ability level had changed. It had risen in a very strange way. He didn't connect this matter with the destruction of the transport team. He only thought that the other party had used Ju Bei's spatial storage ability to smuggle out the beast pills. Seeing that the disciplinary team had come to arrest them, he thought that Jia Nanzhu's theft of the beast pills had been exposed. He immediately reported it, but unfortunately, no one remembered his contribution.

Zhou Gao and Qin Bei soon came back with bad news. "That grandson escaped!"

"Miss Tang, can you still find him?"

Yu Lin didn't have much hope when he asked the question. With Gou Liang's current Level 5 vision, he could only see within a radius of 15,000 meters. At this juncture, with Jia Nanzhu's Level 4 Earth Drilling Technique, he would have already escaped without a trace.

However, Gou Liang, who had been watching them for a long time, told everyone a piece of good news. Not only did they not escape, they were less than 2,000 meters away from them.

"It's the location of the base's beast pill warehouse!"

Lieutenant General Yao's face became even uglier.

Zhou Gao counted with his fingers and sneered. "Looks like they still want to do something big before they leave. Hmph. Boss, let me go and roast him into a rat jerky! "

Shi Buyu said, "Xiao Kener and I will go and arrest them. You guys guard all the exits of Kyushu Base and listen to the situation at all times. Don't let them escape."

"Yes, sir!"

On the other side, Jia Nanzhu and Ju Bei had already successfully broken through the foundation of the Beast Core Storehouse after nine and eighteen twists and turns in the ground.

Completely ignoring the sharp warning from the infrared monitoring system of the beast pill warehouse, Jia Nanzhu asked Ju Bei to store as many beast pills as possible into his space. Ju Bei, who was participating in an actual operation for the first time, felt his limbs go weak. He just wanted to leave as soon as possible. Several times, he tried to persuade Jia Nanzhu to stop, but the greedy man wanted nothing more than to empty the beast pill warehouse and didn't listen to him at all.

Jia Nanzhu only stopped when his space was filled to the brim and couldn't be stuffed anymore.

At this time, the ability user in charge of guarding the beast pill warehouse had found them.

"Who is it?! Stop right there! "

Bao Zi shouted and used her Rank 3 Fire Ability to attack Jia Nanzhu and Ju Bei who were about to dig into the ground.
