Chapter 164.

Li Xin had complicated eyes.

Hao Jingye puffed out his chest and waited for him to praise him.

He could clearly feel that the emotions in Li Xin’s eyes were worship and awe.

–This was the admiration of a school slag for a school god.

Sure enough, Li Xin complimented him, “Assistant Hao, I realized that Sister Sheng is right, you don’t need proof of your strong powers, even if you didn’t have an awakening, you’re still better than countless otherworldly people, and you’re an indispensable existence for our team.”

Upon hearing this, Hao Jingye’s originally serious face instantly collapsed.

He showed his teeth, “Can you not poke at my sadness?”

Not having an alien ability had always been his sadness.

This Li Xin, really can’t talk!

Jiang Yu consoled, “Think about it lah, your own strength is already valuable, even if you awakened your alien ability, you might still be doing the same thing you’re doing now.

“Besides, awakening after the end of the world can’t be stronger than awakening before the end of the world, since you’re already destined to catch up with them, don’t care.”

Hao Jingye’s face was expressionless: “……”

This Jiang Yu, even less able to speak!

Song Linwei patted the shoulders of the “Crouching Dragon Phoenix” left and right, sighing:

“Comforting is good, next time don’t comfort.”

After saying this, he looked at Hao Jingye: “How long has it been? Lai Wan Yun’s last life was the second year after the end of the world before awakening the supernormal ability, and once awakened it was very powerful, you still have a good chance, your brain is so good, awakening the supernormal ability is certainly not bad.”

This is what effectively comforts.

Hao Jingye let out a breath, “I don’t ask for strong xeno abilities, I just ask not to become a fae.”

He sat up straight violently, pounded his hand on his knee, and gritted his teeth, “Just wait, I’m sure I can awaken an incomparably powerful xeno ability that will make you all call your father!”

He was never one-dimensional, it was rare for him to be so childish.

Sheng An listened to their gags and revealed a smile, looking out the window.

At this time, it was already dark, but it wasn’t pitch black outside, on the contrary, the fires around made the darkness of this scorched earth world have light.

On the mountains in the distance, mountain fires reflected the sky red.

If it was before the end of the world, it should already be in the process of fighting the fire, but this was the end of the world, and the whole world was like this.

According to the experience of the previous life, this time the fire would be extinguished inside the heavy rain a month later.

But–

That’s the second cataclysm.

And they had to return to the capital base before the heavy rain.

Sheng An looked at the earth-type alien in front of him who was driving the road, and let out a soft breath.

The car continued to move forward.

It was getting closer and closer to the C9 base, and could already faintly hear movement ahead.

Inside the communication car, Yuan stood up.

Qi Lingmu instantly sat up straight.

Sheng An frowned, “What’s wrong?”

She inquired under her breath, but she was staring closely at the C9 base ahead, already sensing that something was wrong.

In their anticipation, C9 was in good condition and in order, but now before they even got close, they could already hear noisy sounds, and the air was faintly tinged with the smell of blood.

Something has happened!

Qi Lingmu’s foreign energy was fully open, and his expression was grave: “The C9 shelter was attacked, there should be a fae attack.”

Hao Jingye frowned, “It shouldn’t be, C9 is in a good situation, the armed forces are well preserved, the number of xenos is not small, and the vigilance is high, how could it be?”

Wu Buye’s nose twitched and suddenly said, “There is the smell of gunpowder.”

Sheng An’s face sank.

The car sped up and soon drove to the C9 shelter, while Yue Ming, who had received the news, had already brought people to welcome him.

He had a grave expression, and the Alterans following behind him all had blood on their bodies, and even the soldiers with guns were all solemn and murderous.

Originally, the shelter was building a base, the progress was not as fast as the capital city base, but the foundation had been laid, but at this time, no one was working, all of them were terrified and noisy.

Yue Ming’s face was ugly, “Team Leader Sheng, I’m sorry, the C9 refuge was attacked, we weren’t able to defend the shard and it was snatched by the fae.”

“What the hell is going on?” Hao Jingye looked serious.

Yue Ming took a deep breath and slowly said:

“They used a bomb, the Fae infiltrated into the shelter and directly detonated it, taking advantage of the chaos to snatch the shards, if Tian Fang hadn’t noticed in time and didn’t let them detonate all the bombs, the situation in C9 would definitely be worse now.”

Tian Fang, the owner of “Monitoring Ability”.

Long Tianyu changed his face.

Wu Buye was equally shocked: “They actually used bombs? This is well-planned!”

Another well-planned operation.

With the help of a bomb, the fae managed to snatch the fragments from the tightly guarded C9 refuge.

“Where’s the source of their weapons?” Zhang Kun wrinkled his brows.

Yue Ming shook his head, not really sure.

Sheng An asked, “How long has it been?”

“Less than an hour, one batch of Fae grabbed the shards and left, the remaining batch stayed behind to pad out and fight us, and they were all dealt with just now.” Yue Ming looked at the time.

Wu Buye looked at Sheng An and asked, “Chasing after them now? It’s still not too late.”

Sheng An nodded, “Team Qi and you go.”

“Yes.”

Wu Buye’s wings perked up and his body turned into a bird and flew into the sky, Qi Lingmu jumped onto his back and the two of them immediately disappeared into thin air.

Yue Ming froze.

So strong!

Was this the strength of the Special Intelligence Service?

Sheng An looked at him, “I want to see all the surveillance.”

Yue Ming hurriedly led the way.

Ten minutes later.

Hao Jingye, Song Linwei, Wan Yuan, and the entire communication team, each looked at the surveillance.

Sheng An was conversing with Tian Fang, the “monitoring” alien.

Her fingers tapped on the desktop, “You mean, this time, the fae didn’t want to kill many people, but only grabbed the fragments?”

Tian Fang nodded, “Yes, they are very purposeful.”

After thinking about it, she added, “Creating chaos, grabbing the shards, and leaving the fae behind to break the back, while the fae behind the back can’t ask anything, and don’t know anything …… It’s as if these fae knew that you guys would be coming, and chose to get rid of them quickly.”

“Tick-tock-”

The communication rang.

Wan Wan looked flabbergasted, “Sister Sheng, Team Qi and the others have encountered other sanctuary xenos who are being hijacked by the fae!”

“Are they sending meteorite fragments over?” Hao Jingye asked busily.

Wan Wan nodded, “Yes, they were hijacked by the fae.”

At these words, everyone’s hearts tightened.

Yue Ming sucked in a mouthful of cold air, his face became even more ugly, “There were six shelters that were going to send meteorites over, no wonder we only received one and the rest all didn’t come on time, so it turned out that they were hijacked and killed by the Fae.”

Jiang fish opened his mouth, and only said after a long time, “This action …… is also too organized, right? Could it be that M did it again?”

Song Linwei looked grave, “We still have to find a way to interrogate the fae.”

“But they won’t say anything, fae are different from ordinary people, even if they are mind readers, they can only read blood and chaos, they know nothing.” Hao Jingye shook his head.

They had tried it long ago.

But those fae, no matter how much they interrogated and exhausted their methods, would not tell the answers they wanted to know, as if their consciousness was controlled, some answers, impossible to say.

And the mind-reading technique can’t read out, seize the fae to interrogate, it’s no use at all.

So when they encountered the fae, they were all killed directly.

Gu Qiansheng looked like he thought of something, and busily said, “They are so planned, can they catch up with Team Qi?”

Hao Jingye had anger in his eyes, “Dig three feet into the ground and find them.”

This was considered snatching the meteorite fragments from in front of them.

How could he not be angry?

Sheng An suddenly asked, “There is a methodical connection between the fae and the fae and not to mention, how do the fae differentiate between humans and other fae?”

All of them were hidden amongst humans, how did they differentiate?

Only fae killed people, but they had never heard of fae killing fae by mistake.

Hao Jingye nodded, “This point has long been under study by the institute, and currently tends to be – humans are a unique ‘food’ to the fae, and predators can smell the food.”

And as a Fae, it probably won’t emit the “food scent” anymore.

This point was also one of the current research directions, and if the difference could be found, there would be a way to find out all the fae.

Sheng An raised his eyebrows, “Food? Scent? The fae like as if it’s human blood ……”

Hao Jingye: “Yes, it’s human blood, that is to say, as long as the person has blood, the fae will be able to recognize it, and if they don’t have blood, they might-”

The voice ended abruptly.

Song Linwei and Gu Qiansheng were also stunned.

Immediately, they looked at Li Xin in unison.

Li Xin: “??”

He looked confused, “Why are you looking at me?”

Sheng An revealed a smile, “Wan Wan, contact Team Qi, look for the fae but don’t rush to kill them, let’s change the scenario.”

Li Xin: “……”

Although he didn’t know what to do, there was always an ominous feeling.
