Chapter 216: Chapter 216: Unconscious
Han Yi frowned upon hearing that, his spiritual power undulating outward like ocean waves! Everyone saw a blurry figure emerge just a few dozen centimeters away from Chen Guo, which was then forcibly dispersed by the spiritual power!
If it weren’t for Han Yi using his spiritual power to shake him off, I’m afraid that figure would have latched onto Chen Guo!
The figure that was shaken off rolled on the ground, then sprang up very agilely, finally revealing its true face!
——It was a face that seemed both human and non-human, with eyes that were exceptionally large, almost occupying half of the face! Moreover, the eyelids were thick, the eyeballs protruded, and the pupils moved independently, looking quite spine-chilling at first glance!
Just as Zhu Chengzhi had said, it was like a chameleon!
Pepper began clucking urgently!
The chameleon man emitted a strange laugh from his mouth, the cracks at the corners almost extending to his ears.
"Chen Guo, you’re really foolish. Having escaped, why did you come back?"
Chen Guo seemed to be very afraid of this man named Li Jian, and couldn’t help but take two steps back.
Li Jian’s gaze shifted to Pepper on Han Jiaojiao’s shoulder, his mouth splitting even wider with a smile, "Coming back is good too, it really is like delivering me a big gift..."
Han Yi’s expression didn’t change, he pulled Han Jiaojiao behind him, ready to release his spiritual power to crush the person in front of him, but his face suddenly changed!
Li Jian’s figure unexpectedly carried a double image! Then, it split into two people?!
Zhu Chengzhi trembled as he shouted, "Be careful! He can split into clones!"
The clones were not illusions but actual separate bodies, with consciousness and volition, new bodies!
Li Jian’s clones immediately split again! Perhaps to avoid being attacked, the clones rushed into the crowd! Then looking up, that face had turned into one of their teammates!
The situation went out of control instantly! Suddenly there were many Xiao Jians, many Yan Xiaos, many Chen Guos!... Familiar faces flashed before their eyes, causing everyone to hesitate in their shooting, for fear of accidentally hitting their own teammates!
"Yan Xiao!" Han Yi suddenly shouted!
Yan Xiao quickly turned his head, only to see Han Yi send a dark and threatening palm strike toward him! Boom!——A surge of spiritual power burst forth, yet just as it was about to touch Yan Xiao, it split like a diverging river, instantly strangling the two other "Yan Xiaos" standing behind him!
It was a revelation for everyone! They immediately started calling out each other’s names, observing the reactions to determine if it was the actual person.
Realizing this tactic was ineffective, the clones all turned and pounced towards Han Yi!
Han Yi let out a cold laugh, his spiritual power directly seizing hold of six or seven clones! One of the clones suddenly opened its mouth wide, a lizard-like tongue shooting out swiftly!
Han Yi immediately scooped up Han Jiaojiao and rolled on the ground!
A white light flashed before their eyes, charging straight towards Han Jiaojiao! Han Yi hugged Han Jiaojiao and did a side roll, taking a hit in the process!
Everything happened too fast, Han Jiaojiao didn’t understand what was occurring, only feeling very clearly Han Yi’s body tensing up in an instant. Before she had time to think further, she saw another long tongue lashing towards them!
A purple vine shot out abruptly! It tightly wound around the tongue, directly pulling the tongue’s owner in front of Han Jiaojiao! Han Jiaojiao activated her Ability, her bright, red blood exploding like fireworks!
The clone was like a blood bag being sliced open, its blood spurting out non-stop, its body rapidly withering until it turned into a dried-up corpse!
Seeing his clone turn into a dried corpse, Li Jian wore a horrified expression, muttering "Space-Time Beast" a few times and turned to run away, but Yan Xiao threw a fire-dragon to burn him into cinders! The couple of remaining clones were also shot dead amidst the chaos.
Han Jiaojiao helped Han Yi up, only to discover a long, thin needle stuck in Han Yi’s back!
"Brother?!"
Han Jiaojiao’s face turned pale, and she hastily pulled out the needle! However, the entire dose from the syringe had already entered Han Yi’s body, and Han Jiaojiao panicked instantly, her eyes brimming with tears, "Brother... Brother!!"
Han Yi felt something was very wrong with his body, experiencing a slight numbness, and even opening his eyes became a struggle.
"Brother is okay... Baby don’t be scared..." He tried to lift his hand to pull Han Jiaojiao close, but lifting his arm was like hoisting a thousand pounds.
He completely lost his balance, his upper body leaning forward, resting on Han Jiaojiao, weak and powerless.
Han Jiaojiao, with tear-blurred eyes, held him and placed her palm on the injection site on Han Yi’s back, attempting to use her Ability to extract the medicine. However, the medicine had already mixed with his blood and spread throughout his body; it couldn’t be completely removed no matter how much she tried.
Han Jiaojiao only managed to extract the surrounding blood, then she could go no further. Looking at her brother with his eyes tightly closed, Han Jiaojiao felt powerless and vulnerable for the first time, breaking down in uncontrollable tears.
The atmosphere was tense, everyone’s face showing the panicked look of losing their pillar of support.
Zhu Chengzhi hurried over, picked up the syringe to check it, and said anxiously, "It’s an Ability-suppressing liquid!"
Xiao Jian grabbed him by the collar, bellowed, "Where is the antidote?!"
"No... no, I don’t know! This was specially prepared by Li Jian and his team to capture Superpower Users, made outside before being delivered to the base, and there is a designated person in charge!"
Xiao Jian was so angry he wanted to hit someone but was stopped by Zhu Changfu and Chen Guo.
Chen Guo said, "Hitting him won’t help! Professor Xiaozhu has been in charge of testing the drugs, he has no idea about the formulation and production!"
Zhu Changfu pulled Zhu Chengzhi to his side and said sternly, "Chengzhi, these people came here to save you; think hard, what can we do to save Han Yi now!"
Zhu Chengzhi was so anxious he was about to cry, "Dad! I really don’t know, maybe... maybe Professor Luo knows, but he is still inside the base!"
Lu Changyuan, who had remained silent with a stern face, raised his head and took step after step towards Han Jiaojiao. no𝚟𝚙u𝚋.c𝚘m
Han Jiaojiao sat on the ground holding Han Yi, tears welling in her eyes, lips tightly pursed, still stubbornly trying to separate the medicine from the blood inside Han Yi’s body.
However, the molecules in the medicine were like constantly dividing and growing microbial spores. Han Jiaojiao kept separating and extracting them, but they continued to multiply and wrap tightly around every cell of Han Yi, stiffening and solidifying them.
It was like a race, but sadly Han Jiaojiao’s speed was far behind her opponent. Large tears rolled down from her eyes; she was so anxious that she did not know what to do.
"Jiaojiao, you take good care of Ayi, we’ll go get the antidote," Lu Changyuan’s voice was deep and strong.
With her face streaked with tears, Han Jiaojiao held Han Yi tightly and nodded firmly.
Lu Changyuan instructed two people to stay and protect Han Yi and Han Jiaojiao, then waved over Tian Xinyue and ordered, "Stay with her, and if you hear anything wrong, drive off immediately."
Tian Xinyue knew the gravity of the situation, set her face in a determined expression, and nodded in agreement.
Lu Changyuan pulled out the gun he carried with him, knocked on the car to create a noise, and proclaimed loudly, "Everyone grab a weapon! Let’s go!"
"Snap!——"
Xiao Jian opened the truck’s cargo door, and one after another, glossy black guns passed through his hands to each person; some of the heavy machine guns weren’t even assembled yet, and just by looking at those hefty components one could sense their power.
Zhu Chengzhi, who had never seen such a display of force, was stunned speechless, and Chen Guo, not expecting to find so many weapons stashed in the car, had an indefinable expression of changing colors on his face.
The armory at Qingyang Base was very limited, and ammunition had been almost depleted. Recently, they had depended on coal mining to trade for weapons and ammunition with other bases, but that was highly restricted. Nowadays, ammunition was the most practical commodity, and nobody was willing to give away any extra.
Zhu Chengzhi, wide-eyed and tongue-tied, tugged at his father, who was stuffing hand grenades into his pockets, and stuttered, "Dad, what... what are you all going to do?"
