Chapter 78 Superpower Evolution
After Lin Yun and Qin Yuan finished taking hot showers, Gu Nanfeng had almost finished preparing lunch. Du Wenqing was still unconscious, so Qin Yuan thought for a moment and moved him to one of the beds so he could rest.
Seven people sat around the dining table, ready to start lunch. Although everyone was wearing warm clothes, except for Qin Yuan and Lin Yun, the others were still shivering from the cold. So they turned on the air conditioners in the RV, and Lu Yuan even took out two heaters to set them up. Only then did they feel that the RV was finally not cold.
"Captain Qin, tell me, what kind of superpowers have you evolved?" After drinking a bowl of hot soup, the group felt revitalized. Zhong Qiang couldn't hold back any longer and asked first.
"Haha, I knew you'd be most interested." Qin Yuan immediately became proud when the topic of superpowers came up. He took a big bite of food, stretched out his right hand and snapped his fingers. With a "snap," a small flame shot up between his fingers. Then he opened his palm, and the small flame turned into a small fireball.
"Is this real fire?" Pei Sihao stretched out his hand and swept it over the small fireball. Sure enough, his palm was immediately burned by the scorching flames. He felt that Qin Yuan must have controlled the heat of the fire, otherwise his palm would probably have been blistered.
"Are you alright?" Gu Nanfeng tilted his head slightly, glanced at Pei Sihao's withdrawn hand, and then turned to look at Lin Yun, "Captain Lin, what kind of superpower did you evolve?"
“It’s wind.” Lin Yun said, spreading out his left hand and placing the paper ball he had just prepared on it with his right hand. The paper ball suddenly floated up and, with Lin Yun’s control, rose and fell, as if someone was blowing on it from below.
"Is it because of the meteor shower?" Lu Yuan remembered that Fei Wen and the others had said that on the day of the meteor shower, Du Wenqing and the other soldiers who returned from T City went crazy.
"Old Du might be affected by the meteor shower, but Old Qin and I weren't." Lin Yun tossed the crumpled paper into the trash can and began recounting his and Qin Yuan's trip to T City...
That day, after Qin Yuan and his team switched to the 11 G-Class vehicles provided by Lu Yuan, they set off quickly. Because the vehicles were in good condition, although they encountered some accident vehicles blocking the road, they were, after all, forty or fifty soldiers, and clearing obstacles quickly and in an organized manner was one of their essential skills. So they arrived in T City without any delays and arrived in the afternoon.
When they arrived in T City, they first connected with the city's security base. In fact, they hadn't encountered any large-scale zombie or frenzied animal attacks yet. However, their base was just an ordinary university in T City. Because there weren't many survivors, they hadn't built any reliable defensive facilities.
The provincial military region troops that came to the rescue left behind some troops, but there were not many survivors to begin with, so they were unable to carry out any construction work. Moreover, a few days ago, another group of the troops left behind went to the border to meet up with the survivors from Y Province. Therefore, the commander of the T City security base command decided to transfer to the G City security base together with the survivors from Y Province.
Seeing the situation at the base, Du Wenqing and his team realized that in the later stages, the base wouldn't be able to withstand even large animals, let alone zombies. They could also see that the soldiers who stayed behind had indeed had a tough time over the past three months. So, after discussing it, they decided that the soldiers who stayed behind in T City would take the survivors from T City back to G City first, while their two squads would go to the border to meet up the survivors from Y Province, and then return to G City directly from there.
Things progressed as they had anticipated. The next day, Du Wenqing and his team received a message from the G City command center that the T City team had arrived at the safe base. Their journey into the border region between the two provinces also went unexpectedly smoothly; they encountered no animal attacks along the way within G Province.
However, on the third day, when the survivor team from Y Province reached the border between the two provinces, they were still surrounded and attacked by animals and zombies. Most of these animals were venomous snakes, but there weren't many large beasts. Among the zombies that followed them, Qin Yuan didn't see any second-generation zombies. He even complained about it to Lin Yun at the time.
After all, the first-generation zombies are pretty much like those in movies and TV shows; they're just ordinary people. If they wear slightly thicker clothes and protect themselves, you can smash their heads off with two blows.
Perhaps it's because ordinary people these days are so well protected by the country and the government that they don't even know how to resist. Moreover, this group of survivors from Y Province must have gone through something along the way, and most of them are in a state of panic and have no power to resist at all.
At first, Qin Yuan and his group were firing from both sides of the highway at the border of the two provinces. However, one of the supply trucks from Y province, which was full of survivors, broke down. The truck was quickly surrounded by a swarm of venomous snakes. The snakes began to crawl onto the truck, and the people on the truck started to jump off.
The car breakdown had already blocked one lane, and the people who got out and fled in all directions forced the two cars behind to stop. Out of fear, the people frantically climbed onto the two cars behind them. Du Wenqing and his team had no choice but to work with the other soldiers to help these survivors and try to get them into the vehicles that were waiting for them in G province.
Just as the number of venomous snakes increased and the crazed survivors became increasingly unruly, the enraged Qin Yuan waved his hand, and a burst of flames erupted, instantly igniting the stranded supply truck. The truck then exploded with a "bang," stunning all the irrational survivors and even startling the battle-hardened soldiers.
At that time, Qin Yuan himself didn't know that he had evolved a superpower. He just thought that the broken-down car had malfunctioned and exploded. Taking advantage of the fact that the survivors were stunned by the explosion, Du Wenqing directed everyone to be redistributed to the vehicles. Then he left only his two squads to cover the rear, and let the soldiers from T City who came to pick them up take the team from Y Province and leave first.
Qin Yuan and Lin Yun naturally stayed behind to cover the rear. Not long after the car in front drove off, the zombie horde hidden behind the animals appeared. There were even several second-generation zombies among the thousands of zombies, but Qin Yuan clearly remembered that he had not seen any second-generation zombies among them before.
Teams 0922 and 0419, totaling 45 people, were suddenly surrounded by zombies and animals. Previously, a single zombie in a suit had already given Qin Yuan and Lin Yun a major headache; now there were more than one second-generation zombie among them…
In the eyes of these second-generation zombies, it was these dozens of people who had let those others go, so they had to kill them. They wanted to kill them, not turn them into zombies. Therefore, the zombies didn't move, but simply surrounded them in layers, while the swarm of poisonous snakes on the ground pounced on them.
When a large python lunged at him to strangle his neck, Lin Yun reached out to block it. Unexpectedly, the python, which was over ten meters long and as thick as a bowl, flew off in the opposite direction.
Unlike Qin Yuan, Lin Yun immediately realized that he felt a strong wind in his palm. He turned around and raised his hand again towards a small green snake that was pouncing on Du Wenqing. Sure enough, the small green snake that was about to bite Du Wenqing's arm also flew away.
At this moment, Lin Yun looked at his palm in surprise. He could feel that some kind of power seemed to have awakened within him...
