Chapter 208 Ice Ladder
Chapter 208 Ice Ladder
Following Miao Yin's instructions, the people behind exchanged glances and automatically separated.
Yan Shuzhou followed Miao Yin as usual, while Yao Yue followed along to guard against Xia Tang's psychic abilities. The rest of the group continued forward.
The four of them went ahead and left through the burned exit, waiting for them outside.
Song Qiming touched the stone wall with a gasp in amazement: "Amazing, they managed to break through such a thick wall. I wouldn't dare to blow it up. Who are these people?"
"Why don't you ask me in person?" Miao Yin appeared on the other side of the door.
"Hello, my name is Song Qiming! I'm from Yuecheng, I'm twenty years old, I like playing games and eating snacks, and my favorite dessert is chocolate! What's your background?"
Clearly, a day and a night of confinement had not diminished his energy; the red-haired boy remained as passionate as ever.
His teammates: "..."
Xia Tang and Tan Ling exchanged a glance, both seeing the speechlessness and disdain on each other's faces.
shameful……
“I told you we should freeze him into a block of ice and throw him into the river, but no one listened to me,” Tan Ling said.
The aloof and dignified young woman was amused: "You're really funny."
"My name is Miao Yin, I'm from the ancient capital, and my hobby is... to mess with people."
Song Qiming: "Haha, you're quite interesting too."
Bai Wendong couldn't stand it anymore, so he pulled Song Qiming back: "Alright, let's go to the back."
Miao Yin: "You're from the Moon City base, what are you doing here?"
“This is our mission,” Bai Wendong replied.
"Have you been to the base? Those who have should know that people with superpowers can team up and go out on missions."
"You're here to find supplies for the base." Hearing this, Miao Yin knew why they were here.
Some large bases with official presence will recruit powerful individuals with special abilities into their city defense teams to guard the base alongside the military, or to carry out resource and rescue missions outside the base, in order to maintain its operation.
However, some people with special abilities dislike the strict rules of the official system and prefer to travel freely and form their own teams.
So the base set up a job board, where they would assign small tasks to people with special abilities or ordinary people with great skills to take on. Once completed, they would be given some rewards, such as currency or crystal cores.
Most of these tasks involve finding resources or clearing out nearby mutants.
The four of them have come to the Sunrise Shopping Mall only to look for supplies.
The base probably never imagined that a simple exploration mission would unleash the Crimson Catastrophe.
Bai Wendong: "Yes, it's getting hot, and the situation at the base isn't very good, so we took on a mission to find supplies. After confirming the supplies, we reported it to the authorities, and they sent more people to deliver the supplies back."
Xia Tang touched her forehead and sighed, "We thought it was just an ordinary exploration mission, but we didn't expect that the mall's doors were sealed off and that the mutants were raising Gu inside. Each one was more powerful than the last, so we had no choice but to be trapped in the secret room."
Miao Yin glanced at them: "They don't seem to be seriously injured."
Song Qiming said excitedly, "Because we escaped quickly! We hid!"
Tan Ling slapped him on the head again: "Shut up, you shameless bastard."
"boom!"
A huge commotion came from the secret room, indicating that they had encountered a mutant of considerable power.
"Speaking of which, I overheard you fighting with that cat in the secret room just now?" Tan Ling asked.
"Yes, it can also change shape."
"Yes, yes, I just blew it up, and it grew this big, it's terrifying!" Song Qiming said, spreading his arms wide to express his shock.
"Why didn't we see the body?" Tan Ling asked casually.
Miao Yin said, "It's behind you."
Tan Ling subconsciously turned her head and saw a white snake as thick as an arm clinging to the armrest behind her, its head tilted back, its cold, inorganic eyes staring at her.
"!!!" Tan Ling immediately broke out in a cold sweat.
The group took several steps back and moved away from the handrail.
"Tan Ling, your special ability," Bai Wendong reminded her.
At this moment, ice flowers had formed under their feet, and the surrounding temperature was dropping rapidly.
Startled, the superpowered individual instinctively assumed an attack stance, several sharp icicles forming on their hands.
The ice-type ability users had obviously frozen the passage to climb out of the corrosive liquid.
"Hiss hiss hiss..." Lady White Snake flicked her scarlet forked tongue, the blood at the corner of her mouth not yet completely congealed.
"Don't panic, it's my pet," Miao Yin said calmly.
"This is a mutant animal, and you actually kept it?" Bai Wendong's voice was filled with barely suppressed shock.
"I keep a lot of things, so what are mutant animals? It's your teammates who seem to have very special abilities. So, as the captain, what abilities do you have?"
The tall, serious-looking man composed himself and said, "My abilities are inferior to theirs; they're just ordinary..."
Boom!
The plaque behind Miao Yin suddenly slammed into her!
"go!"
Bai Wendong shouted.
The four of them took off running. Suddenly, a section of the handrail in front of them exploded, revealing a gap. Tan Ling activated her superpower, and an ice ladder led straight to the bottom from the gap!
Xia Tang was the first to slide down, followed by Tan Ling and Song Qiming, with Bai Wendong bringing up the rear.
When they were halfway down the ice slide, Song Qiming blew up the upper half of the slide, completely blocking their path.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Miao Yin grabbed the huge plaque with her bare hands and crushed it.
The wooden plaques were scattered and broken.
"Object manipulation, and it's a special type of superpower."
“They actually dared to attack you… Sister, at least break a few of their bones,” Yan Shuzhou said cruelly.
Miao Yin patted his head: "Don't worry, they can't escape. I'll go down first."
After saying that, she jumped off the building.
The four of them quickly went down to the first floor and ran towards the main entrance.
"So why are we running?! Are you even paying attention to me?" Song Qiming shouted in confusion as he ran.
"Idiot, is that all you've got? Do you think we can mess with those people? Let's run first!" Xia Tang said.
boom!
The white snake landed in front of them, its body suddenly growing larger. Its body, several meters long, blocked the mall's entrance, trapping the four of them inside. Such a colossal creature was enough to make anyone feel insignificant.
"hiss--"
"Wow! It's so big!" Song Qiming exclaimed, his mouth agape in shock.
The three men's expressions changed drastically, and Bai Wendong shouted, "Qiming, can we blow it up?!"
"Um...it's too big. At most, I can only injure it," the red-haired boy said with a troubled expression.
The white snake raised its massive tail and, to their horrified gaze, slammed it onto the ground.
The terrifying force shook the entire mall violently, as if the sky and earth were shaking. A strong wind swept in, and the four people fell directly to the ground.
