Chapter 218.
Because of the time backtracking, the way they came has completely disappeared, especially now it’s still the third month of the end of the world, there are mountain fires, landslides, and meteorite damages and potholes everywhere, and the way back has become difficult.
But this would not affect their good mood, and everyone was smiling.
The road became full of hope.
Autumn Rain joined them.
She already knew the whole process, and at this moment, her expression was a bit complicated.
She had always wanted to be stronger than Sheng An.
Before she was sure that Sheng An had psychic abilities, she had indeed always been stronger than her, and Group A had also taken in many strong psychics after the end of the world.
But this person seemed to be forever telling everyone –
She was immensely powerful.
When she didn’t have psychic abilities, she was powerful beyond measure.
After having psychic abilities, even the psychic abilities were powerful beyond time.
This trip to the Southwest, if it was her who came in, there must be no way to break through the Southwest Maze, much less solve the huge crisis of the Time Fae.
Qiu Yu was once again awake and cognizant of how powerful Sheng An was, not just relying on the power of her powers.
When she sat up straight, her body was taut and both hands were placed on her knees, a standardized sitting posture that made the crowd in the car, who usually didn’t have a sitting form, quite uncomfortable.
It fell into an eerie silence.
In the silence, Qiu Yu twisted his head to look at Sheng An, his voice consistently cold: “Your mission this time was beautiful, and your supernormal ability is also very special, you should return to the capital as soon as possible.”
Sheng An nodded, still careless.
Qiu Yu frowned.
A moment later, she spoke again, “When you told the mutated plants not to move and stuck in the gap, did you not want Qi Lingmu to come out?”
Crowd: “?”
Lai Wan Yun immediately quit and pulled up her voice: “Hey hey hey, what are you doing, Team Leader Qiu? Why do you have a questioning tone? You’re in Special Intelligence Division Team B now!”
Inside their nest, what’s the point of playing rough?
Lai Wan Yun and Long Tianyu, Wu Buye, Li Xin, Gu Qiansheng and the rest of them, all sat up, their eyes on guard.
Qiu Yu frowned again, chagrin flashing in his eyes, then added:
“I wanted to ask if you were aware of the possible outcome.
“In choosing not to let the Time Fae leave, in playing with the Time Fae to get energy that can be manipulated, and in not choosing to let the person inside out, were you already prepared to let him be sacrificed?”
Li Xin and Long Tianyu wanted to say something, and then quieted down under Qi Lingmu’s gaze, only in the end, indignant, staring at Qiu Yu, the eyes as if questioning-
What for? Pick a fight?
Jiang Yu in the front row bumped into Hao Jingye and lowered his voice: “What’s going on? Does Team Leader Qiu really like Team Qi? So he can’t stand it when Sister Sheng puts Team Qi in danger?”
Her eyes went round.
Hao Jingye cast a sidelong glance at her, “Quiet, in addition, less love inside your brain.”
Sheng An still holds Qi Lingmu’s hand as she looks back at Qiu Yu, “If I had been unable to find a way to enter the second time layer, in an emergency, I would have let Qi Lingmu do it.”
Even knowing that he would die.
Autumn Rain pursed her lips for an instant and fell silent.
In the middle of the morning, she murmured, “So you can even give up …… him in front of the mission What other people are there that you won’t give up?”
Sheng An was about to speak.
Qi Lingmu’s hand holding her moved, his fingers gently tickling her palm, his brows gentle.
With that, he turned back to Qiu Yu: “Until the last resort, until the desperate situation, Sheng An will never give up on anyone, if the time comes when you have to give up-”
His brows and eyes were tough, his voice was certain, “That must be for something more important, Qiu Yu, have you forgotten the 0-Team purpose and team motto?”
Qiu Yu’s hand cupped his pants, his knuckles whitening.
[I will swear allegiance to my country, defend my home, and protect my people, I will pour my life and blood on my family’s land.]
Qiu Yu took a deep breath.
She withdrew her sight and said nothing more, patting Qu Yi’s shoulder, signaling him to take her away.
Qu Yi opened the car door and turned into a bat and flew out.
Autumn Rain landed on his back.
The two were about to go far away.
“Autumn Rain.” Inside the car window, Sheng An calmly looked at her, she sat in a lazy and casual posture, very uninhibited, but her eyes were serious and firm, “The game about the country, about all the people’s lives, I must win, and in order to win, I can sacrifice everything, including myself.”
Autumn Rain slightly pause.
Without turning back, the bat took her back to the capital base.
Jiang Yu was annoyed, “What did she mean by that just now? How come I didn’t quite understand it?”
Lai Wan Yun stroked her chin, “It feels like she’s a bit angry?”
Hao Jingye pushed up his glasses and sneaked a look at Sheng An, “Probably this matter just poked at Team Leader Qiu’s sore spot.”
“I am really curious about the relationship between Sister Sheng and Team Leader Autumn, sometimes I feel that they are enemies, and sometimes I feel …… that Team Leader Autumn cares quite a bit about Sister Sheng, it’s weird.” Li Xin was greatly puzzled.
Wu Buye nodded in agreement.
Then, he frowned at Zhuang Fan: “Don’t brainstorm the novel plot, it’s all three settings for a while, it hurts my head to hear it!”
Zhuang Fan’s face was expressionless, looking at him with a high level of coldness.
Sheng An raised her hand, “Alright, gentlemen, stop the discussion, we seem to have seen a refuge ……”
She looked out the window.
There was indeed a shelter diagonally in front of them, they had passed through this area on their way here, and there had been nothing here then.
And now, there were posts and countless people coming out of the ground in front of it, looking curiously.
That one freshly alive person originally didn’t feel anything, but comparing it to the withered bones from before, it made one’s eyes inexplicably wet.
Mostly because they saw the caravan, many of them showed astonishment.
The person in charge of the shelter rushed over, and there were also many other people with different abilities who came out to watch the fun.
The convoy approached.
In the crowd, a non-mainstream teenager suddenly screamed, “Ahhhhhhhhh! I have a fever, I’m definitely awakening my alien ability! Hahahahaha, old me finally-”
A middle-aged man slapped over and scolded, “Who are you talking about Laozi in front of? If you have a fever, hurry up and go lie down, what are you looking at? Don’t you know the dangers of Awakening? Did you not watch the propaganda video carefully?”
“Dad ……” the non-mainstream aggrieved, “I’m going to awaken my powers, you give me some face.”
“Cheng Bai Ruo! You also know that you are going to become an alien, don’t hurry to cut your that messy hair, look at the eyesore, if you don’t cut, your mom and I will mixed doubles you ……”
“Not cut!” Cheng Bai Ruo stalked his neck, “I still want to keep it long, at least to my ankles, when I awaken my super-strong psychic ability, I’ll keep my hair long, handsome to death – Ow, I have a fever and you’re still hitting me?!”
He wanted to jump to his feet, but after the fever, his temperature increased and he collapsed weakly.
His father, although scolding him, was always concerned about him, and caught him with a hand, carrying him down with the two men beside him, full of anxiety and worry.
“Quickly make way, my son has a fever, make way …….”
Jia Guangliang just got off the car, tears streaming down his face.
He was still there, and so were his parents and family.
Cheng Bai Ruo had said that his hair grew out three months after the end of the world, and he didn’t have time to cut his hair at that time, and kept it for a while, very much like a non-mainstream.
It was also at that time that he awakened his supernormal ability and vowed to keep his hair long to look more forced, his parents disagreed and they were stubborn for a long time.
Later, his parents were gone.
He never grew it long again, but he never cut it short either.
He kept his “non-mainstream” hairstyle for two or three years, maintaining the same length, as if he was still in the old days. ……
–But even so, he never saw the parents he missed.
The three years of the time fae forced to pull, Southwest ninety-nine percent of the souls, leaving countless stories of regret to this land.
But now, everything is back.
Jia Guangliang let loose a big laugh and laughed until he cried out.
Sheng An also laughed.
Qi Lingmu stood next to her, holding her hand, his voice soft: “I finally know the meaning of your ability, time, the most precious and truly important thing in this world.”
