Chapter 202: An Unwilling Cang Jian

speaking of which, they had underestimated their enemies. In the past, some of the bases they had encountered did not have any strength to resist at all, nor did they have any powerful superpowered people. Their continuous victories had made them arrogant and condescending.

Cang Jian was at a loss for what to do. He had good brothers with whom he had gone through life and death together. Now, he had suddenly lost more than half of them. This was difficult for him to accept.

“No!” Cang Jian let out a painful roar towards the sky. The other surviving members of the team also had bloodshot eyes and bared their teeth, revealing an extremely terrifying killing intent.

Before they could even see the enemy, more than half of their men had already died.

“Ye Xingchen, I swear that I will kill you myself!” Cang Jian’s eyes were red as he spoke in a vicious tone.

Every member of their team should have been someone who had made a difference in this chaotic world, but now they had fallen to such a tragic end.

However, no one would be merciful to the enemy on the battlefield. No one was in the wrong. If they had to find a reason, they could only blame themselves for following the wrong person.

“Do you guys feel that something is wrong?” Cang Jian gradually calmed down and thought carefully about what the problem was. It was too much of a coincidence that the bomb was detonated as soon as they arrived.

“Yes, the direction we are heading in and the location we are stopping at, they seem to have predicted it. Moreover, the bombs there don’t seem to have been planted randomly, as if they were deliberately prepared for us.” At this point, everyone had a bold guess in their hearts.

“Don’t tell me there’s a spy among us?” Cang Jian interrupted.

“That’s impossible. If that’s the case, why would they wait for a month before they killed Ling Yun and Cang Feng? This doesn’t make sense.”

Cang Jian shot an unfriendly look at the person who had just spoken. Saying such words on the battlefield was undoubtedly disturbing the morale of the army. What was his motive?

The team members felt that it made sense, but they couldn’t figure it out no matter how hard they racked their brains. Could this be a coincidence?

“You guys wait here. I’ll go and check out the situation alone.”

After saying that, he rushed toward Ye Xingchen’s fortress at an extremely fast speed. This place was less than two kilometers away from Ye Xingchen’s fortress, but Cang Jian rushed over in less than five seconds. The speed was so fast that it made one’s hair stand on end!

On the other side, Ye Xingchen was still holding his sniper rifle and looking in the direction they had just escaped. Just now Little Black told him that he saw a person rushing towards the fortress.

“What incredible speed. This acid rain is really a good thing. It can actually allow humans to evolve to such an extraordinary level.

“Bang!” Ye Xingchen pulled the trigger. A bullet hit Cang Jian’s head as if it had hit a steel plate. The bullet split into several parts and scattered in all directions. On the other hand, Cang Jian was not injured at all. He continued to run around the entire fortress. The others also aimed at him, but Cang Jian was too fast. Other than Ye Xingchen, almost no one could hit him.

“This person actually has such a strong physique. It’s unbelievable. If only I were this strong.” Seeing that he couldn’t kill him with his gun, Ye Xingchen stopped.

He knew that this person was looking for a flaw in the fortress, but where was the flaw?

“How can there be such a perfect fortress? It’s so much stronger than our base!”

Cang Jian looked at it in disbelief as he ran.

Cang Jian had originally planned to carefully explore the nearby terrain and provoke Ye Xingchen. Seeing that they did not attack him again, he returned to the team.

“How is it, Captain?”

“I’ve already checked the area within two kilometers of Ye Xingchen’s fortress. There shouldn’t be any bombs. As for us being blown up, it’s probably not a coincidence. However… Among superpowered people, I guess Ye Xingchen belongs to the special category.”

Not long ago, an official organization announced a recent survey and classification of all kinds of superpowered people around the world. They were divided by their physical fitness level (rank 1 to rank 3 was beginner, rank 4 to rank 6 was intermediate, and rank 7 to rank 9 was advanced) and the type of ability.

It was mainly divided into these categories.

Strength. The representatives of this category were Cang Jian, Zhao Hao, and others. Their physical attributes had been strengthened to the extreme. Their speed, strength, body toughness, and other functions had reached tens of times the limit of a human. Their physical fitness was advanced.

Control. Ling Yun could congeal the air into ice cubes of any shape with a thought, and Mo Qi could control lightning for both attack and defense. These types of people usually had low physical fitness.

Spirit. Rumor had it that in the M Nation, there was a superpowered person nicknamed “Spirit Reader.” This person could use his spirit to control weapons and kill enemies. He could even use his spirit to kill people without them noticing. His physical fitness was rated as intermediate.

Special. The representatives of this category were Ye Xingchen with his dimensional space, Qin Tianming with his invisibility, and Little Black with his prophecy power. These abilities were extraordinary, so they were all classified as a special type.

Currently, these classifications are still relatively general. As the officials gradually understood the superpowered people, the classification would definitely become more and more detailed.

There were so many people in the world, and in the future, there would definitely be new people who would awaken to become spirit readers or have more powerful abilities.

However, the scariest of them all were people in the spirit category, who could kill with their thoughts. Fortunately, only one person in the world had awakened this ability, and they would not think that Ye Xingchen had awakened this type. Excluding this situation, they didn’t take Ye Xingchen too seriously.

Cang Jian had experienced countless battles of all sizes, and he had seen all kinds of superpowered people. This time, they were beaten so badly by Ye Xingchen that they didn’t think they would have to go back like this. They were all angry and wanted to take revenge on Ye Xingchen, so they prepared to take action when night fell.

As the night fell, Cang Jian led the seven people in the team and prepared to sneak up to the top of the mountain where Ye Xingchen’s fortress was located. The others were responsible for diverting their attention in front of the fortress.

Ye Xingchen’s fortress had people on duty 24 hours a day. Moreover, the fortress’s defense line had expanded a lot.

■Warning, there is an enemy attack.” A guard on duty noticed that someone was rapidly approaching from a kilometer away from the fortress and quickly pressed the alarm. Ye Xingchen had been waiting for them for a long time. He was aiming at them with a sniper rifle equipped with infrared night vision. These people were all very fast. Although they were not as freakish as Cang Jian, if they were at the 100-meter sprint competition at the Olympics, any one of them could surpass Usain Bolt. Moreover, their continuous physical fitness allowed them to maintain such high-intensity exercise without any fatigue..
