Arc 4: Chapter 35
Everyone else around knew that these people belonged to the Gale Team of power users, and were well known for being arrogant and acting recklessly, doing as they please without any scruples. They looked at Lu Ye and Lin Yuan with pity and disdain. How can just two people go against so many power users, not to mention one of them was a fool?
Who expected that in the next moment, the power users surrounding Lin Yuan suddenly turned around and started attacking their teammates.
Lin Yuan was originally ready to teach this group of people a good lesson, but seeing this scene, he stood still in confusion. “Ah?” Why did they suddenly start infighting?
He belatedly reacted and looked back towards Lu Ye.
The young man stood not far away, his dark hair scattering in the wind, and a shadow obscured half of his face. His eyes that stared at the power users were sharp and sinister, exuding deep killing intent, like a devil that crawled up from hell.
Lin Yuan immediately worried that Lu Ye would lose control of his power like before, and he rushed over and held Lu Ye’s face. His soft palm passed on its warmth to the young man’s icy skin. He said anxiously: “Lu Ye, don’t be angry ah! They’re just a bunch of dummies, don’t pay attention to them!”
But how could Lu Ye not be angry? He was about to go crazy with how much he wanted to kill them, tear off their flesh, and dig out their eyes and tongue that dared to insult Lin Yuan. They even wanted to hurt his Sui Sui, how dare they? How dare they!
Lu Ye’s dark eyes didn’t change, and those power users continued to beat each other up. They even started going feral, biting each other just like zombies.
Everyone around subconsciously took a step back from fear, and even suspected that this group of power users had been infected. But after taking a closer look, there were no obvious signs of mutation, and the staff hurriedly tried to stop them. Unfortunately, it was useless, and it seemed that this group of power users had lost their minds.
At their wits end, the staff could only forcibly tie up all of the power users and notify the higher ups at the base.
During all of this, Lin Yuan single-mindedly continued to coax Lu Ye, saying sweet words.
Lu Ye finally looked back at him, and he suddenly hugged him tightly as if no else was around. Lu Ye whispered in a low voice: “Sui Sui…”
He would always protect Sui Sui.
Lin Yuan patted Lu Ye’s back gently and glanced at the bloody scene out of the corner of his eyes. The eyes of those power users were empty like puppets.
After making sure that Lu Ye was appeased, Lin Yuan walked up to one of the staff members and asked calmly: “Can we check in first?”
The staff member hesitated and didn’t know what to do. Although this gay couple didn’t seem to touch anyone on the Gale Team, those power users indeed went crazy during their conflict with them. If they let them enter the base, then the higher ups on the Gale Team would definitely be unhappy, and maybe even punish the staff.
The staff member said with some guilt: “My apologies, sir, as you can see, something like this has happened, and we need to take care of it before we can continue working. I hope you understand.”
Lin Yuan didn’t think too much of it and nodded: “Okay.”
Twenty minutes later, a group of people arrived. The leader was a tall and buff man, and when he saw that members of his team were tied up and bloody, he roared angrily: “What’s going on? Who did it?”
The staff quickly went over and explained the matter briefly.
The leader looked at Lu Ye and Lin Yuan and sneered: “You two are quite bold to even dare touch the members of the Gale Team. I see you don’t want to live anymore.”
Lin Yuan sneered back: “If you can stand it when someone calls your lover a fool and says that all men can **** you, then I have nothing to say.”
The staff had not mentioned this, and the leader was a little stunned. But he still said disdainfully: “It’s just talk—so what? Kid, aren’t you angry because it’s true?”
He said this purposefully, planning to stimulate Lin Yuan into attacking him and then take the opportunity to kill them.
Lin Yuan snorted and suddenly understood the human saying that birds of feather flock together. The person who said this didn’t exaggerate at all.
Facing a group of 20 power users, most people would be shaking like a sieve, but Lin Yuan didn’t feel intimidated at all. Just his husband’s pinky finger was enough to deal with all of them.
Lin Yuan originally wanted to be low-key when entering the base, but the plan couldn’t keep with reality... Oh well, whatever.
He whispered in Lu Ye’s ear, and then in the next second, green vines suddenly sprouted underneath the feet of the Gale Team, hanging everyone upside down in a blink of an eye.
The leader shouted in shock and looked at the two in disbelief: “You!...”
Lin Yuan didn’t want to listen to him, and told Lu Ye lightly: “So noisy.”
More vines sprouted and covered everyone’s mouth.
Now it was finally quiet. Lu Ye felt like he had done a good job and quietly looked at Lin Yuan, his eyes full of expectation.
His husband looked so cute like this, making Lin Yuan’s lips curve. He kissed Lu Ye as a reward and gently stroked the other’s hair: “So good, you’re the most most powerful~”
Lu Ye was very happy to be praised, and he looked worlds apart from the devil-like young man before.
Lin Yuan still had business to do and couldn’t kiss Lu Ye more. He patted Lu Ye to make him stay, and then walked over to the dumbfounded staff and said indifferently: “Get their boss to come here, and tell them to bring crystal nuclei to free people. And go get the bosses from other power user teams too. As for which ones to call, you decide yourselves.”
The staff members didn’t dare disobey, and walked away hurriedly.
Among the first people to arrive, there was an acquaintance, Song Ting.
Song Ting was obviously surprised to see Lin Yuan and Lu Ye, who had disappeared after the last mission in Nan City three months ago. They were back?
He still smiled and greeted them: “Mr. Lu, Mr. Lin.”
Lu Ye had no reaction, but Lin Yuan nodded back in greeting and asked: “Team Leader Song, are you the leader of the base’s power users?”
Song Ting’s expression sank with a trace of sadness: “Our previous Regiment Leader Zhou unfortunately passed away on a mission a month ago, and I took over this position afterwards.”
Death was common during the apocalypse, Lin Yuan said his condolences and nothing more.
Song Ting was only depressed for a moment. He looked at the people tied up and asked quietly: “Mr. Lin, Nan City base is different from how it was three months ago. These power users are all from the Gale Team, which is the largest independent power user group.”
Even Song Ting didn’t dare offend the Gale Team, but seeing the victims were his old acquaintances and this matter was indeed the Gale Team’s fault, he thought he would try to help as much as he could.
Lin Yuan rolled his eyes and said coldly: “Wow, the largest independent power user group. Team Leader Song, could it be that all of their members are level 3 power users? They can even look down on me, a dual power user, call me a b**** and say that any man can **** me.”
Ruan Qing, who had rushed over, widened his eyes and said angrily: “Those Gale Team people must be sick! How dare they say such things?!”
Lu Ye subconsciously felt that he had this voice somewhere before, and turned around. He immediately recognized this annoying face and his expression darkened. He wanted to cover Lin Yuan’s face again, but Lin Yuan quickly grabbed his hands and stopped him: “Lu Ye, behave.”
Lu Ye whimpered twice, a little aggrieved.
Lin Yuan looked at him and his heart softened. He reached into the storage ring and took out a mask and put it on. His blue eyes gazed at Lu Ye and he said softly: “This is fine right?”
Seeing that most of Lin Yuan’s face was covered, Lu Ye settled down in satisfaction.
Ruan Qing was about to explode when he saw this. This Lu Ye doesn’t even let him look at Lin Yuan now!
Song Ting finally noticed that Lu Ye seemed to be different from before. He asked inquiringly: “Mr. Lu, he…”
He was suddenly interrupted by a gloating voice: “Heh, did Lu Ye become stupid?”
