Chapter 80: The Black-Robed Person
But seeing the unharmed Zhuang Jiayuan, she breathed a sigh of relief again.
“Yuan Yuan~ are… are you okay? I saw that Mutant trying to bite you, so I… I went and slashed at it. After that, I felt like I couldn’t control myself. I would slash at anyone who got close to you.”
With that, tears began to fall, expressing her grievance.
Seeing her like this, Zhuang Jiayuan also breathed a sigh of relief. She was afraid that she would remain immersed in that emotion and not be able to come out. She didn’t find her crying and acting cute so annoying anymore.
After calming down for a while, Ke Yajun lowered her head and walked to Zhang Can’er, apologizing in a low voice, “Sister Can, I’m sorry. I might have had an episode just now. I’m sorry.”
“It’s good that you’re okay. Why don’t you stay in the military base in the future? You’re a bit too dangerous like this,” Zhang Can’er said. She had thought about it for a long time before she could say these words. If Ke Yajun continued to be like this, it would not be of any benefit to the team.
Even if Zhang Can’er didn’t think for herself, she had to think for Wan Feng. What if Ke Yajun had another episode during a battle? Wouldn’t Wan Feng be in a miserable situation? Having to deal with Mutants on one side and her own people on the other, just thinking about it was very tiring.
Hearing her words, Ke Yajun became extremely anxious. “Sister… Sister Can, I won’t be like this again. I promise. Don’t leave me, okay? I… I will control my emotions. I won’t be like this again.”
As she spoke, her tears couldn’t be controlled and fell one by one.
Wan Feng looked at her with cold eyes and said, “Don’t think that we’ll soften our hearts just because you’re crying. When you get back later, just stay at home. Don’t come out again in the future, so as not to harm others.”
Wan Feng’s words were merciless, and could even be said to be a bit harsh.
Mainly, she was really scared. If she hadn’t noticed in time just now, all she would have seen would have been the scene of Zhang Can’er’s head and body separated. She was terrified and afraid. She didn’t dare to take the risk, to bet that Ke Yajun wouldn’t have another episode.
Zhuang Jiayuan did not speak from the side. She didn’t know what to say. Ke Yajun had indeed almost killed Zhang Can’er just now. It wasn’t something that could be resolved with a simple “I’m sorry.”
She would not plead for Ke Yajun either. No matter how Zhang Can’er and Wan Feng dealt with it, she would accompany Ke Yajun.
Zhang Can’er sighed. Looking at the tearful Ke Yajun, she was actually the only one who knew that Ke Yajun’s blade was actually held back. If she had really slashed down with all her strength, even if Wan Feng had noticed in time, she would have been injured by the blade qi.
This showed that she had some consciousness but just couldn’t control her body. It was probably a stress reaction. For people who were afraid of losing someone, when they saw their most important person in danger, they would automatically block out some things, and there would only be one thing in their eyes, and that was to protect the most important person in their heart.
Thinking of this, Zhang Can’er looked at Zhuang Jiayuan. Perhaps she could cure Ke Yajun. But as for how to cure her, she still had to find a doctor. This psychological illness was very likely related to her previous experiences. In short, it was not easy to cure.
“Let’s not talk about this for now. Take out your sensing drone and see if there are any fish that have slipped through the net. Didn’t those ability users say that there was a two-meter-tall advanced Mutant? Let’s see if it’s hiding somewhere.”
Ke Yajun wiped her tears, nodded, and the sensing drone flew a few circles but didn’t sense anything, which meant that this place was really empty.
After Wan Feng uploaded the video, the group got into the car and went to the next place.
This place was far from the main city. It took an hour to drive there.
The battle just now had made them all a bit tired, and their stomachs were rumbling. Lunchtime had long passed. It was already past one in the afternoon, which meant that they had been fighting from ten o’clock until one, for a full three hours.
If it were before, Zhang Can’er felt that she would have been exhausted to death there.
Entering the Spirit Field Space, Zhang Can’er simply stir-fried some carrots in the kitchen, with chili sauce. It was very fragrant, and she stir-fried quite a lot. She also cooked a large pot of rice and then brought all these things out.
Ke Yajun and Zhuang Jiayuan were a bit dazed. Could they actually eat hot food?
“Eat. Aren’t you hungry?”
“Hungry! I just feel like I haven’t reacted yet. Sister Can, what is your ability? This is a bit too magical, isn’t it? To be able to eat hot food at any time.”
Ke Yajun, who was in a good mood, took a large bite of rice and a chopstick of carrots, her cheeks puffed up as she said.
“Don’t ask. If you ask, it’s a secret.”
Zhang Can’er said with a mysterious smile.
Although the two of them were curious, they also knew that some secrets could not be told. They were not the type to like to investigate, so they didn’t ask much.
But Zhang Can’er had underestimated the appetite of the ability users. The four of them were obviously not full.
In the end, Zhang Can’er directly cooked four pots of rice, then mixed it with chili sauce and ate it just like that.
They were full, and even stuffed.
Wan Feng drove the car. An hour later, they reached their destination.
After the group had adjusted their state, they entered battle mode and walked into the village with their Tang swords.
From the entrance of the village, one could see that this village was very small. The houses were densely distributed, but not many. It was like a village that was still developing.
Ke Yajun’s sensing drone did not sense anything.
Zhang Can’er felt that it was a bit strange. The information from the Federation would definitely not be false. That meant that these Mutants might be hiding somewhere.
The third mission was to clear out the intermediate Mutants in the village, so the mission level was B-level.
She had thought it would be an easy task, but now it seemed that it was not that simple.
The group walked to the center of the village. Suddenly, they all felt the feeling of being watched.
Zhang Can’er quickly signaled for the group to eat the carrots.
Then they stealthily hid in a house. There was no danger in the house, so the group looked outside with peace of mind.
They saw that at the position they had just left, a black-robed person had appeared. And behind her were several Progenitors, dazed and without the feeling of a living creature.
It was as if they were being controlled by something.
The black-robed person just glanced around a few times and then left. The Progenitors behind her also obediently followed.
Zhang Can’er and the others could see each other, but they couldn’t speak, only make hand gestures.
Wan Feng’s meaning was to follow and see. Zhang Can’er felt that they should go back to the base first. The two of them had a disagreement.
In the end, Ke Yajun and Zhuang Jiayuan, one chose Zhang Can’er and the other chose Wan Feng. It was a tie.
Wan Feng pulled Zhang Can’er to a corner and whispered in her ear, “Can’er~ just listen to me this time, okay?”
Wan Feng’s magnetic and charming voice made Zhang Can’er shiver. She looked at Wan Feng angrily. “Why are you still using a honey trap?”
“Just listen to me this one time~” Wan Feng said coquettishly, nuzzling Zhang Can’er.
Zhang Can’er was instantly defeated. How could she withstand such an attack?
Especially after they had crossed the line.
Who would have thought that the person who was as cold as frost on the outside was actually a little fox who loved to act cute in front of her lover?
“Alright, just this once.”
They had just finished talking when the effect of the carrot disappeared.
Before they could react, a group of intermediate Mutants appeared around the house.
At a glance, there were about thirty or forty of them.
