Chapter 331 - 329: This Thing Is Way Too Poisonous

Chapter 331: Chapter 329: This Thing Is Way Too Poisonous

From over a meter and a half away, Chen Xing took one sniff and knew something was wrong. "It’s covered in some kind of tranquilizer!"

The moment she gave the warning, she had already entered her space and chugged a few mouthfuls of spring water.

Instantly, her mind cleared.

By the time she paid attention to the outside world again, all the Superpower Users had collapsed, one by one, except for Song Yiguo and Vice General Du.

But even Vice General Du and Song Yiguo weren’t faring much better.

’This stuff is way too potent!’

Chen Xing could also sense that something had happened to Meng Hu.

’There shouldn’t be any immediate danger, for now!’

So, she had no choice but to feign dizziness and collapsed before Song Yiguo.

Song Yiguo: "..." ’What are you playing at?’

’Giving up?’

He fought to stay conscious, refusing to succumb completely.

The Poodle, which had looked so adorable, suddenly took on a ferocious expression and began barking madly at the house it had come from.

Chen Xing had fallen facing Song Yiguo. Using her body to block the line of sight, she pressed a mineral water bottle to his lips.

Only then did Song Yiguo realize she was faking it. He immediately drank the water and his mind cleared considerably in an instant.

’Let Vice General Du and the others stay out for now.’

’Any big movements would get us discovered.’

Before long, people emerged from the house.

Not many, just twenty-some men.

Another twenty or so men entered from the outskirts of the town.

They were pushing several carts, which held all the Superpower Users and Meng Hu.

These men were a group of rough brutes, every one of them looking like a bandit.

"This tiger is nice and meaty. It’ll definitely taste better than these people!" one of them said, drooling as he looked at Meng Hu.

The moment the words left his mouth, he felt a wave of malice, but when he looked around, everyone had their eyes closed.

’How dare he touch my Meng Hu?’

Although Chen Xing’s eyes were closed, she had already mentally eviscerated the man who spoke.

’Just you wait!’

As it happened, Meng Hu’s cart was pushed right next to Chen Xing. Her fingers brushed against him, and she took the opportunity to pull him into her space and toss him into the spring water pool.

"..." The townsmen were all dumbfounded.

After a long moment, someone finally shouted, "Where’d the fat tiger go?"

"It was right here a second ago! How did it just vanish with a WHOOSH?"

"Did we run into a Devil?" As they spoke, the men split up to search.

But of course, there was no sign of Meng Hu.

"Forget the tiger! Let’s get these people inside!"

These men were surprisingly strong. Song Yiguo’s team of two hundred was carried underground by just a few dozen of them.

They were separated and thrown into iron cells.

"When this woman wakes up, send her upstairs," the leader said, pinching Chen Xing’s cheek.

Chen Xing was a hair’s breadth away from crippling his hand.

Fortunately, he didn’t violate her any further.

After the men had all left, Chen Xing was a bit puzzled. ’Why is their security so lax?’

’They’re all Superpower Users. A normal iron gate can’t hold them.’

"I can’t use my superpower!" Song Yiguo suddenly exclaimed.

He hadn’t been able to sense his superpower for a while now.

"What’s wrong?" Chen Xing was in the adjacent cell and couldn’t see him.

"I don’t know if my superpower is gone for good, or if this is just temporary." Either way, the fact he couldn’t use it made him panic.

Chen Xing passed through the bars of her cell and then entered Song Yiguo’s.

He wore a grave expression, trying over and over again.

Seeing Chen Xing use her Gold Attribute Superpower to get in, he was stunned. "Your superpower still works?" It was unbelievable.

Chen Xing: "..." ’Could she tell him her superpower wasn’t exactly natural, but one that was converted through her space?’

"Yes!"

She ignored Song Yiguo for the moment, took out the spring water, and started by giving some to Vice General Du.

Soon, all the Superpower Users had woken up.

However... they all found that they couldn’t use their superpowers.

"What do we do now?" It seemed they had underestimated the enemy this time.

The drug on that dog must have a power-neutralizing effect.

The thought that they might never be able to use their superpowers again weighed heavily on their hearts.

"Take out all the weapons!" Song Yiguo remained relatively calm.

It wasn’t like they were completely unprepared.

The Space Ability User still had weapons stored in his space.

"Young Master Song, I can’t open my space!" the Space Ability User said weakly. "But I can still feel that it’s there!"

Song Yiguo: "..." He then remembered that a space couldn’t be opened without the use of one’s superpower.

Chen Xing, however, didn’t think it was a big deal.

The fact that the Space Ability User could still feel his space’s existence proved that their superpowers hadn’t completely vanished. They were just temporarily suppressed and would recover sooner or later.

She handed two bottles of spring water to Song Yiguo and Vice General Du. "You two rest first. I’m going to go check things out. If you feel dizzy, drink some water immediately!"

After that, she turned invisible, removed the iron door from the outside of the cell, and then put it back in place.

To prevent getting ambushed by the little dog again, she even put on a gas mask.

The basement where they were being held was just a converted underground parking garage, split into two sides.

Chen Xing remembered they had been pushed in from the right, so she chose to head left.

Through a simple little door, she found a large warehouse of several hundred square meters.

It was filled with supplies, with only a single narrow path leading forward.

Without Song Yiguo and the others to worry about, Chen Xing used her Jiezhi Space to quickly pass through the large iron gate.

It was extremely noisy inside. A group of men were drinking and carousing.

It was the same group from before.

On the other side of the door, the little Poodle started to get agitated after Chen Xing entered.

It barked furiously at the drinking, celebrating men, as if trying to warn them.

But... with bellies full of alcohol, the men completely ignored its warning. Seeing that it wouldn’t stop barking, one of them simply gave it a vicious kick.

The little Poodle was knocked to the ground and struggled for a long time before it managed to get back up.

The little thing was resilient, though, and tried to approach them again to warn them.

Chen Xing simply stretched out her hand and pulled it into her space.

The little thing was quite resistant right after entering the space.

It was clear that its spiritual power was very strong.

Chen Xing handed it over to Meng Hu and his companions, then left the space without a second thought.

Under Meng Hu’s intimidation and a round of bullying from the Little Black Cats, the little thing finally started to behave and slowly accepted the space.

Outside, the rough brutes hadn’t yet noticed their precious little dog was missing and continued to drink.

Chen Xing went to the next room and found a staircase leading upstairs.

So, she returned to the room where the men were drinking and making merry. With a sweep of her hand, she began to absorb their superpowers.

The first few men only felt their bodies being drained, and didn’t have time to react.

By the time all forty-plus men had lost their superpowers, they dropped their cups and scrambled to their feet.

But... it was obvious they had no strength left.

Chen Xing then unleashed two consecutive bolts of electricity, finishing them off directly.

Just then, the door on the warehouse side opened.

A young, voluptuous woman walked in carrying a tray of food and wine. Upon seeing the floor littered with dead bodies, she was so frightened she dropped the tray.

Chen Xing, still invisible, noticed the iron chain around the woman’s ankle.

After a moment of near-total panic and confusion, the woman pulled open the door behind her and ran out.

Chen Xing immediately gave chase.
