Doomsday Traveler

Chapter 330 Sandbags
Luo Ping also had some chocolate hidden in his car, just in case he needed to replenish his energy.

Then he took out all the chocolates and shared them with everyone.

Of course, the main culprits were Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei; they were the ones who expended the most energy in the battle just now.

Next were Liu Hua, Tang Er, and Lao Yao. Apart from Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei, these three contributed the most.

Then everyone else only received a smaller share, and Luo Ping divided the rest between himself and the bottle.

—This thing is an energy replenishment for others after battle, but for Luo Ping and Pingzi, these two Type B Newtypes, it is a combat support tool that they cannot do without.

"Leave the task of strengthening them to me this time."

As Liu Hua was munching on her chocolate, Old Tang suddenly said, "Liu Hua, focus on your ants. You'll perform better that way."

Old Tang was given only a tiny bit of chocolate. He had never gotten his hands on anything like it before. It was absolutely delicious. Apart from the big meal Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei prepared yesterday, this was the best thing he had ever had.

Old Tang really couldn't bear to finish it, so he could only eat it little by little, savoring the taste carefully.

Damn it, if I had known that following Luo Ping and his gang would bring so many good things, why would I have been suffering alone in the south?!

Liu Hua listened to Lao Tang's words but did not answer directly. Instead, she looked at Luo Ping.

After Luo Ping nodded slightly, Liu Hua said, "Okay."

The chocolates given to Liu Hua were something she was reluctant to eat, but she knew she needed to replenish her energy and get herself into the best possible condition.

Moreover, compared to Old Tang, who had just been controlling the flying ants and boosting the power of Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei, she had indeed expended some energy.

So even though she was reluctant, she gritted her teeth and quickly finished the chocolate.

After eating what they needed to eat and saving what they needed to save for later, everyone took another look at the map of the resonance gene scanner.

You can tell from the red dots on the map that the enemy is very close.

The second round of the battle arrived quickly.

The two vehicles from Beifang County stopped at a considerable distance and even drove off the highway, indicating that they valued these important supplies quite a bit.

Of course, Lu Xi'an and the others couldn't see these things either. They could only see nine red dots stopping a little distance ahead on the resonance gene scanner, and then turning off the road.

Meanwhile, Lu Xi'an, Yao Wei, Chou Nu, and Tang Er, the four Type A new humans, heard the sounds of vehicles moving and doors opening and closing.

The remaining people in Beifang County did not try to avoid Lu Xi'an and his group, nor were they afraid of their voices being heard.

Lu Xi'an and the others waited for a while, but only Boss Liang and Sister Xu came over.

They knew, of course, that their opponents had also made preparations for the battle. Boss Liang and Aunt Xu still planned to be the vanguard, with the others in the rear. The remaining Type A new human, as well as Type B and Type D, would be used to protect the two Type C new humans.

Lu Xi'an thought to herself that Boss Liang and Aunt Xu might be planning to rely on Type C new humans again, and then practice with her to improve their strength.

But Lu Xi'an still said, "Why is it just the two of you again, delivering again?"

His single word "send" was concise and to the point, and Boss Liang and Aunt Xu already understood what he meant.

Boss Liang sneered, "Whether you're here to die or not, we'll find out soon enough. As for you, what are you doing standing here all alone, making that woman who was with you hide in the back? Shouldn't you be the one here to die?"

Lu Xi'an chuckled and said, "Guess."

"Guess again!"

Boss Liang's voice gradually became irritable, and Xu Ma's face turned cold, just like his.

Although both of them had only heard "Guess" once, they felt inexplicably as if they had heard it hundreds of times, and were extremely annoyed by the two words.

"Guess your mom!"

With a roar, Boss Liang and Aunt Xu immediately charged at Lu Xi'an.

Lu Xi'an stepped back slightly to dissipate the force, then raised his arms to meet Liang Laoda and Xu Ma.

He knew he had to hold off the first wave of attacks from Boss Liang and Aunt Xu, tying down their attention, so that the others could make their move and have a chance of success.

Otherwise, if they were bogged down by these two people who had eaten the mushroom stone, and a protracted war were to break out, the balance of victory would inevitably tip in their favor.

He didn't even intend to attack. The amplification from the Type C Newtype behind him made him feel his power surging forth again, but he only focused on defense.

If we attack now, we won't kill the enemy; our own fists and feet will only become nourishment for Boss Liang and Aunt Xu to improve their strength.

He didn't want to do something that would aid the enemy.

However, as he blocked the attack, Lu Xi'an suddenly realized something was wrong—

Xu Ma and Liang Laoda suddenly seemed to have more than doubled in strength.

This was definitely not the result of being beaten up by himself and Yao Wei too many times, plus the effect of the Type C new human.

Lu Xi'an was perfectly aware of this.

As a Type A new human, and having just fought against Boss Liang and Aunt Xu, Lu Xi'an knew the details of these two people very well.

He had a general idea of ​​how much their power would increase, and what level they could reach with the support of Type C New Humans. He knew that he could hold out for a while no matter what.

Therefore, Lu Xi'an dared to be so arrogant in the face of Luo Ping's plan, saying that he could hold the line by himself.

But now, when Boss Liang and Aunt Xu swung their fists at him, he had already taken two steps back to deflect the force. When he raised his arm to fight back, he still felt powerless and as if his arm was about to break.

The force of those two punches even penetrated his internal organs, and he felt a sweet taste in his throat, almost spitting out a mouthful of blood.

But he still managed to hold on, staggering back a few steps as he was struck, staring intently at his opponents. The two opposite him did not press their advantage. Lu Xi'an saw that their four eyes had turned completely bloodshot, far exceeding their appearance during the previous fierce battle. Not only were the veins on their bodies bulging, but their muscles were also bulging.

Boss Liang had grown a lot bigger, and Xu Ma's flesh seemed to have tightened up, with the crisscrossing veins on her body looking like chains binding her flesh.

Oh my god, did they take performance-enhancing drugs?!
Lu Xi'an thought to himself.

But clearly, the effects of the type C pheromones far exceed those of stimulants. The changes in Boss Liang and Aunt Xu are even more terrifying. What do stimulants amount to then?
Lu Xi'an couldn't quite figure out Liang Laoda and Xu Ma. The only thing he could understand was that Liang Laoda and Xu Ma were clearly not used to it either, which was why they stopped immediately after one attack.

—This is a state adjustment.

While adjusting his state, Boss Liang didn't forget to banter with Lu Xi'an: "How about it? Did you see how it was about to lead to your death? Do you want to know how we did it?"

"good."

Lu Xi'an said this as if he was being stubborn, which made Boss Liang and Aunt Xu sneer.

However, neither Boss Liang nor Aunt Xu noticed that the fungal stone hidden in Lu Xi'an's sleeve was already taking effect, quickly healing Lu Xi'an's injuries.

Don't think you're the only ones with fungal stones.

—Lu Xi'an has been performing all along.

"Your mouth is harder than your fist."

Aunt Xu sneered disdainfully.

Then Boss Liang said, "It's no big deal to tell you, you can't learn it anyway."

"To be honest, this is something we only recently mastered. Anyone with a body like ours simply wouldn't understand it—"

"We can have the power of two Type C New Humans applied to ourselves at the same time. The effect of this one plus one is far greater than two."

"But you'd better not follow my example, it'll kill you."

Lu Xi'an and Luo Ping behind him both gritted their teeth and remained silent.

They certainly knew this would kill people.

Previously, Base 923 only had one Type C Newtype, Liu Hua, so they had never made an attempt.

But now that they're here, with Old Tang between them, the combined effect of the C-type formula is something they're naturally going to give a try.

However, the results of the experiment were not ideal. The superposition of type C pheromones would turn the pheromones into a highly toxic substance, which even Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei could not withstand. Regardless of which type of hormone the pheromones stimulated, it would cause the body to be overloaded in a short period of time, thus leading to rapid collapse.

They even considered developing attack methods for Type C Newhumans based on this, such as imbuing those with Type C Newhuman enhancements with their abilities again, forcibly causing Type A Newhumans to be overloaded with poison.

However, the development experiment ultimately failed. They discovered that when the same pheromone was applied to people, there was an adverse reaction between the pheromones of different people. If a person wanted to receive the same pheromone from two Type C new humans at the same time, the two people would have to undergo special training to form a tacit understanding and synchronization.

pity……

Otherwise, with Lao Tang and Liu Hua around, Boss Liang and Aunt Xu shouldn't even think about improving their strength by relying on Type C new humans.

Lu Xi'an guessed that the reason why Boss Liang and Aunt Xu were able to accommodate the enhancement of two Type C new humans was probably related to the fact that they had eaten fungal stones.

—Of course, this is based on the premise that Boss Liang didn't lie.

Lu Xi'an guessed that this possibility was still very high, and on this issue, there was no point in Boss Liang lying.

"I think you're all going to die soon. If you can't hold on, then stop."

Lu Xi'an feigned composure and said.

He guessed that Liang Laoda and Xu Ma must still be overloaded in this state, but he didn't know if the fungal stones in their bodies could be replenished in this overloaded state.

If they could recover, then everything would be over. These two don't need him; they can evolve on their own, just like Goku who used a bug to train on Namek.

If not, that's fine. In that case, they definitely wouldn't be able to hold on for long in this state.

"What a joke! We can't hold out?!"

Xu Ma let out a cold laugh. She seemed to have rested enough and rushed forward first, her raised arm swinging as if it were tearing through the space.

Seeing the distorted scene ahead, Lu Xi'an dared not confront it head-on and dodged to the side.

However, Xu Ma moved extremely fast. With her current strength, she was able to quickly change direction amidst such a rapid attack and chase after Lu Xi'an.

This time, Lu Xi'an could not dodge. He was immediately struck in the abdomen and sent flying backward.

"brush--"

In the blink of an eye, Boss Liang was behind Lu Xi'an, grinning coldly, "My turn." With that, he kicked Lu Xi'an towards Aunt Xu.

The two of them treated Lu Xi'an like a ball, taking turns bouncing on him and having a great time.

Lu Xi'an was completely powerless to resist, yet felt utterly at ease.

He also had fungal stones in his sleeve.

Very well, you two can both come at me now.

He didn't look anywhere else, pretending to be panicked, terrified, and about to die, but what he was thinking was—

Now that those two people have completely captured your attention, it's time to look at the others.
