47 Global Evolution
Zhuang Yao crushed the gecko’s corpse all the way and drove the road bully to the side of the warehouse. They had already disassembled and secured the generator last time. Liu Fengyu and Cong Xia provided cover for Cheng Tianbi all the time. Cheng Tianbi rushed into the warehouse and dragged the generator out. However, the components of the generator were too heavy, and he couldn’t lift them alone. Liu Fengyu had to go and help him.
The gecko swarm kept pouncing on the two of them. Every time they stopped, they were entangled by countless geckos around their waists and legs. Cheng Tianbi swung his Wind Blade, cutting off more than ten tongues. Liu Fengyu secreted digestive fluid from his pores, burning through those tongues, but his own clothes were completely ruined.
Liu Fengyu cursed, “This thing is so heavy. How do we lift it onto the car?”

The Gatling gun had run out of bullets, so Cong Xia could only crawl back into the car. As soon as he opened the car door, several small geckos crawled in. Cong Xia endured the soreness all over his body and kicked those geckos out, closing the car door heavily, then slumped onto the seat.
His swollen muscles shrank back, and Cong Xia could hardly feel his own arms.
Without turning his head, Zhuang Yao shouted, “Don’t stop, continue absorbing and quickly repair the damaged muscles.”
Cong Xia struggled to sit up and absorbed all the attributeless energy within his surroundings without a moment’s rest. He absorbed energy while repairing his arm muscles, and finally, his hands began to regain some sensation.
“They can’t hold on much longer. Can we try enhancing their physical strength?”
Cong Xia tried, “No, it’s too far.”
The range of his energy absorption was only five meters, but the range of energy output didn’t exceed half a meter, so he couldn’t reach those two people at all.
Zhuang Yao shouted, “Both of you, get in the car quickly!”
Liu Fengyu cursed, “Get in my ass! How do we get in?” Liu Fengyu had already fully bloomed, transforming his entire body into a huge and splendid Corpse King Flower. Everywhere he went, geckos were either dissolved into bones by digestive fluid or directly suffocated to death. But even so, there were still countless geckos swarming towards them from a distance. Perhaps it was because the big gecko was injured, and its descendants had gone mad. However, Liu Fengyu’s fully bloomed form couldn’t be sustained for much longer. He was on the verge of collapsing.
Cheng Tianbi’s physical strength had also declined, and his movements slowed down.
Cong Xia anxiously said, “Let me go down.”
“No, enhancing their abilities was just our speculation. We’ve never practiced it before. This is a battlefield. If you go down and can’t come back up, we’ll lose. They will definitely make it here. Liu Fengyu, continue spreading the foul odor. It must be effective!”
Liu Fengyu cursed, “Don’t mention that word again!” Finally, the spreading putrid smell had an effect. The geckos in close proximity almost lost their ability to move, and those at medium and long distances developed a physiological aversion. Their steps noticeably slowed down, directly hindering the geckos from crawling over from afar.
The two of them had a chance to catch their breath and climbed onto the car roof.
Zhuang Yao nudged Cong Xia’s foot, saying, “Give the gun to Cheng Tianbi and then try your ability.”
“Okay.” Cong Xia grabbed a submachine gun, loaded the magazine on his back, and climbed out of the car after opening the door. As soon as he opened the door, he caught a whiff of a strong stench that even penetrated his nose despite wearing a protective mask. His vision darkened, and if it weren’t for the mask, he would have surely fainted.
He climbed onto the car roof and handed the gun to the exhausted Cheng Tianbi, who skillfully reloaded the magazine and chambered a round. He targeted the larger geckos in the vicinity, but his speed was noticeably slower.
Cong Xia grabbed Cheng Tianbi’s shoulder from behind. “Tianbi, let me try.”
Cheng Tianbi didn’t turn his head, unaware that he had entrusted his back to Cong Xia.
Cong Xia gathered all his energy and continuously transferred it into Cheng Tianbi’s body. Cheng Tianbi, who had almost depleted his energy, suddenly revived. The non-attributed energy intertwined with him, gradually restoring his strength and mobility. Cheng Tianbi turned his head to glance at Cong Xia, and Cong Xia looked back at him with bright eyes. Both of them saw astonishment and excitement in each other’s eyes.
After delivering energy for a full minute, Cheng Tianbi said, “That’s enough.” He stood up and kept shooting the geckos blocking their path.
Cong Xia climbed back to Liu Fengyu’s side, holding onto his arm and transferring energy. Liu Fengyu exclaimed excitedly, “Cong Xia, you’re amazing! I really want to kiss you.”
Cheng Tianbi’s ears twitched imperceptibly, and with a shot, he burst a gecko’s eyeball.
Liu Fengyu quickly regained half of his energy, flipped and jumped off the car, spreading out massive petals from his arms, sweeping away the obstacles on their path.
Cong Xia had almost depleted the absorbed energy, so he simply lay on the swaying car roof and continued absorbing. There were countless dead geckos around, and he didn’t worry at all.
The two people observing them from a distance fell into a long silence again. Finally, it was the young man who spoke first, “Brother, do you understand?”
“No.”
“What’s going on? Where did they get those things from? They look like grayish machines. And how did that Wind Boy and Big Flower revive when they were almost out of energy?”
“As soon as that power-type evolved human came up, they had energy. Could they have taken some kind of medicine?”
“I don’t know, it’s not clear, but… it’s too strange. It shouldn’t be like this. After depleting their energy in excessive combat, they should at least rest for two or three days to recover.”
The man shook his head. “We can ask.”
“Should we go down now?”
“Alright.”
The four of them finally broke through the encirclement with great difficulty. Zhuang Yao kept revving the engine, dragging the generator forward. In reality, their speed couldn’t go any faster, but they had reached the highest speed achievable under these road conditions, around 40 miles per hour. However, this speed was enough to leave some smaller geckos far behind.
On the road, Liu Fengyu released a large amount of foul odor, acting as a natural biological barrier, discouraging most geckos from pursuing them. They finally escaped the encirclement of geckos.
Zhuang Yao didn’t dare to relax. They drove for another two kilometers before the speed slightly slowed down because of the rough road. When they drove fast, the entire car shook, and the four of them were on the verge of vomiting.
They hadn’t had a chance to feel excited about their victory when suddenly, without warning, a large group of dark figures appeared on the road ahead. The four of them widened their eyes and saw that it was a large group of bats, with a handsome young man in the middle, looking very eerie.
Zhuang Yao stepped hard on the accelerator, wanting to charge through.
He didn’t care if they would collide with someone; this group of bats was definitely up to no good. He wouldn’t let himself fail at this crucial moment.
The young man smiled, “Oh, quite fierce. If you dare to come at us, you’ll regret it.”
Zhuang Yao’s gaze turned cold, without any hesitation.
But when they charged into the swarm of bats, the front of the car was suddenly halted by a tremendous force. No matter how hard Zhuang Yao stepped on the gas, the car could only move forward inch by inch, with the engine emitting a harsh roar.
Cheng Tianbi said coldly, “Stop the car.”
Zhuang Yao had no choice but to stop the car.
The bats gradually separated from the young man, slowly transforming into a human form. Eventually, they turned into a tall and stern man.
The young man smiled and said, “I told you that you would regret it. It’s not easy to build a car like this, and you’re about to damage the engine. But, I really didn’t expect that you would let such a young kid drive. Do you even have a driver’s license, little boy?”
Zhuang Yao replied, “A good dog doesn’t block the road, get out of the way.”
The young man raised an eyebrow. “Are you really just a kid?”
Liu Fengyu sarcastically remarked, “We’ve had our doubts too, but he really is. What are you guys? Bat mutants?”
“My brother is, I’m not.”
The group led by Cong Xia had never seen animal mutants before, so it was quite fascinating for them. This kind of ability looked so cool and inadvertently made them think of vampires. The man in black clothing with a serious and stern expression perfectly matched his mutant ability.
At the same time, the four of them could feel the powerful energy fluctuations from the man. The young man beside him had weakened significantly, but he couldn’t be underestimated.
Cong Xia asked, “What do you want?”
The young man smiled, “We’re curious about you and want to be friends.”
“If you want to be friends, then don’t block our way.” Zhuang Yao had no good impression of these two individuals. As a cerebral domain evolver, he was highly sensitive to the brainwaves of others. If someone harbored ill intentions or hostility, he could sense it. Although these two individuals didn’t show obvious malice or hostility, they certainly didn’t seem well-intentioned.
The young man blinked his eyes and carefully observed the four people in the car through the front windshield. “Tsk tsk, impressive. Four mutants… Huh? Wait a minute, why are there only three types of energy fluctuations?” The young man furrowed his brow, a hint of confusion flashing in his eyes. He looked at the four individuals again. “Oh, right, there are indeed three. You control wind and nature’s power, you are the Corpse King Flower mutant, and you… are you a power-type evolver?” The young man pointed at Cong Xia, asking with uncertainty.
The three of them understood instantly that Zhuang Yao had manipulated the brainwaves of both the young man and the man, concealing his own energy fluctuations while creating a false impression of energy fluctuations on Cong Xia. This ability could only actively conceal individual energy fluctuations but couldn’t truly hide one’s own. However, in special circumstances, it was incredibly useful. At least for now, Zhuang Yao had successfully concealed himself and Cong Xia. Otherwise, these two individuals who had observed them for so long would have definitely discovered that Cong Xia was not an ordinary person. The absence of energy fluctuations on Cong Xia would have made the situation very difficult to explain, and they didn’t want to invite trouble.
Cong Xia said, “Yes, with the three of us against two of you, we have the advantage. If there’s nothing else, please move aside quickly.”
Author’s Note: I’m going out to play today, so this will be the only update~~=3=
Red flowers are truly magical.
It feels uncomfortable to have one missing. I can’t afford to have OCD…
