Doomsday Traveler

Chapter 364 Strength Beyond Imagination
Lu Xi'an lunged at the Type A new human—the enemy that Yao Wei had recognized.

As for the other Type C new human, that's Yao Wei's target, Lu Xi'an doesn't need to worry about it.

At this moment, what Lu Xi'an needs to do is use all his strength to restrain this Type A new human, so that this Type A new human cannot spare even a little bit of attention to consider anything else.

So his attack was swift and fierce, like Old Tom's peregrine falcon, rushing towards the Type A new human at a speed too fast for the naked eye to catch.

This collision was devoid of any fancy moves, nor did it need any fancy moves; it was simply a sudden burst of terrifying speed.

The speed was so fast that even the Type A new humans were caught off guard, let alone the other person next to them.

"Get out of there, get out of there..."

The Type A new human hurriedly raised his hand to defend himself, while speaking to another person.

But before he could finish speaking, Lu Xi'an had already pounced on him and collided with him.

The speed and impact were terrifying, sending him flying backward, and he couldn't withstand it at all.

The other person, a seasoned veteran, was alert and pounced on the Type A new human before he could even warn him, while simultaneously giving the Type A new human a pheromone boost.

—He is indeed a Type C Newtype, and his strength is not weak. He enhances people's pheromones very discreetly, without emitting much scent. Moreover, the direction of the enhancement is very precise, and the magnitude of the enhancement far exceeds that of ordinary Type C Newtypes.

But no matter what, he is still just a Type C New Human. His reaction speed and reaction time are far too slow for a Type A New Human, so much so that there is a gap of no more than one second between his reaction and action, which is less than a second for a Type A New Human.

Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei wanted this window of opportunity.

They had practiced this situation many times when they were on Caiyang Mountain.

At that time, Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei deliberately suppressed their strength, while Chou Nu and Liu Hua also gave powerful and accurate responses to simulate actual combat.

Therefore, Yao Wei accurately predicted the movements and landing point of the Type C Newhuman in advance, and fired the second shot before the Type C Newhuman used its ability on the Type A Newhuman.

"boom!"

Gunshots rang out again, deafeningly loud.

The enemy's Type A new human reacted first, breaking out in a cold sweat. He immediately tried to help, but found that Lu Xi'an was chasing after him, throwing a punch.

The fist emitted a sharp whistling sound as it hurtled towards the vital points. Even before it struck the face, the force of the punch already made the face sting.

The Type A new human instantly realized that if he went to save the Type C new human at that moment, this punch would land on his face and he would die instantly.

So he could only hastily parry Lu Xi'an's second attack, watching helplessly as his companion's head was pierced by a bullet.

"puff……"

With a muffled thud, the Type C New Human collapsed, his face filled with disbelief.

Still not reassured, Yao Wei immediately put down her sniper rifle after firing the shot and pounced forward, rushing over in the blink of an eye.

The Type A new human was startled, not expecting that there were two Type A enemies hiding here. Distracted for a moment, he dodged a tile that Lu Xi'an swung, but he couldn't dodge the next punch.

But he didn't expect that Yao Wei's target wasn't him at all, but his companion who had already been shot.

"boom!"

The Type C new human, who had already fallen to the ground, had his head smashed by Yao Wei's punch.

The Type A new human was struck in the face by Lu Xi'an's fist and flew backward.

He was filled with regret. The enemy wasn't even coming for him; why had he been so flustered and distracted?

Run first! Damn it, I'll...

His mind raced, thinking about going back to get reinforcements and making those two pay. Then he saw another fist coming toward him from behind as he flew backward.

Not just one, but two!
A man and a woman, one in front and one behind, attacked him from both sides with their fists.

Moreover, both of those punches were incredibly fast, and even with his skills, he couldn't dodge them.

"boom!"

With their fists clashing, even the head of the Type A new human couldn't withstand the impact and exploded instantly, whether from being squeezed or punched.

After confirming the effect of the punch, Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei separated at lightning speed to avoid getting any more filth on themselves.

"Pfft."

The headless corpse lay motionless on the ground.

There were two fewer living people and two more headless corpses.

"call……"

Lu Xi'an let out a soft breath and said, "Unfortunately, we need to finish this quickly, so we can't leave any survivors."

"Ah."

Yao Wei nodded.

The enemy has the ability to mark the new humans. If the enemy survives for a little longer, they are more likely to be marked by the enemy.

Therefore, we must eliminate the enemy as soon as possible in order to maintain the advantage of the enemy being in the open while we are in the dark.

"It's okay, they still have other people."

Yao Wei added in a somber tone. This was the first time Lu Xi'an had seen Yao Wei look so sinister and terrifying, and he couldn't help but shudder inwardly.

He hurriedly said, "Let's leave quickly and get out of here. Those people must have already heard the commotion."

"Ah."

Yao Wei responded again, her expression softening slightly.

Lu Xi'an searched the two men for a while but found nothing of value. He quickly got up, picked up the things they had placed in their hiding place, and left.

Both of them had been marked before, but now they were certain that they were not marked. The success of the operation eased their tension somewhat.

They planned to return to the place where Luo Ping and the old tree had once hidden, and then see how things went.

As they retreated cautiously, Lu Xi'an remarked, "Why do they seem so weak?"

"Ah."

Yao Wei felt the same way.

The enemy was indeed very strong, much stronger than they had been four years ago, but in battle, the power they displayed far exceeded that of these two enemies.

Was Luo Ping and his team mistaken in their judgment, or did the enemy possess other unique attack methods, or perhaps their current strength far surpassed that of the enemy?
Lu Xi'an leaned towards the latter; when they sparred with Luo Ping and the others on Caiyang Mountain, they could sense their growth.

However, the area at the top of Caiyang Mountain was a bit small, which limited their strength. Moreover, Luo Ping and his group were not mortal enemies, so they never used their full power.

Even when the two of them are sparring, they will hold back a little.

Even if they fight with all their might, it's not a life-or-death struggle.

Lu Xi'an could still sense the difference between the sparring on Caiyang Mountain and the actual fighting at this moment.

Perhaps, my and Yao Wei's strength has already exceeded our imagination?

Yao Wei must be the same.

However, they could only keep their current assessment to themselves. With so many enemies suppressing Luo Ping and the rest of them, Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei had to remain vigilant to avoid any unforeseen events.

If their judgment fails, then charging in at this point would be tantamount to suicide.

The two returned to the place where Luo Ping and Lao Shu had once hidden, connected the dog to the resonance gene scanner, and turned on the resonance gene scanner to take a look.

They had assumed that the enemy lingering near the 923rd base would come to check and confirm what had happened.

After all, the place where Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei ambushed the enemy was the site of gunfire. In this place and environment, how could two gunshots not attract attention?
However, the two were surprised to find that none of the red dots had come down the mountain; they were all still concentrated at the 923 Institute base.

Moreover, some of those red dots were still, while others moved extremely fast, even twitching on the map as if they were convulsing.

What could cause the red dot to react this way?
Lu Xi'an frowned immediately, glanced at Yao Wei, and saw that Yao Wei was also looking at him with a serious expression.

"It looks...like they've started fighting?!"

Lu Xi'an said in a deep voice.

"Ah."

Yao Wei nodded and stated her judgment, "Luo Ping and the others... should have heard our gunshots as well."

"Furthermore, they have resonance gene scanners, which can also confirm our identities through the number of people and our previous travel history."

"Perhaps they were worried that we couldn't handle the enemy, so they came out."

She rarely talks a lot, but when necessary, she doesn't mind talking more.

Now is naturally the time when it is necessary.

Lu Xi'an disagreed with this view, saying, "But Luo Ping and the others shouldn't be such reckless people. They've already fought the enemy; if they were to move out again, they should be very methodical."

"We eliminated two enemies so quickly that Luo Ping and his team should be able to see it on the resonance gene scanner."

"He should be able to confirm our temporary safety through the resonance gene scanner, so why would he suddenly appear like this?"

Both of them fell silent for a moment, unable to ascertain the specifics of the situation.

Perhaps something else happened during this time that Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei didn't notice, or didn't have time to notice.

Anyway, looking at the map, the red dots in the 923 base also changed, and soon overlapped with the red dots on the outer perimeter.

From this perspective, it seems that the 923 Institute has indeed engaged in a fierce battle.

The situation didn't give Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei much time to hesitate or think. The two quickly made a decision to go over first and see how things went before taking action.

We can't just sit here and wait, no matter what.

The two immediately set off, carrying all their belongings, and headed up the mountain.

They ran at breakneck speed, but remained vigilant to avoid being ambushed.

Fortunately, the resonance gene scanner showed no problems; the enemy had been at Institute 923 all along and had not set up an ambush elsewhere.

As Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei made their way up, they soon heard shouts of killing, the sounds of bodies colliding, and the clanging of metal coming from afar. Interspersed among these sounds were howls of wolves, crowing of chickens, chirping of birds, and inexplicable rustling sounds, which must be the Type C new humans exerting their strength.

Suddenly, Luo Ping's desperate cry rang out: "Big brother, big sister, I'm so sorry!"
