Chapter 77: Chapter 77: The Hastily Sounding Pellet Drum! (Seeking recommendations, rewards, comments, and collections)
Translator: 549690339
At an altitude of ten thousand meters above Luo An City, three fighter jets armed with missiles cruised back and forth in a triangular formation.
Their radar systems were constantly scanning the ground using thermal imaging to detect human figures.
“Report from Unit 25688! ”
“Reporting in. According to infrared radar detection, the eight figures in the forest have reached the area of the bizarre forest…”
Clearly, the command center didn’t entirely trust Jingyuan and his team, hence they had dispatched three jets for high-altitude monitoring, equipped with missiles ready to assist at any time.
A few seconds later, the fighter jet reported again, “Report, the number of heat sources on the ground has decreased from eight to seven…” “It’s Jingyuan, he has gone in!”
The people in the command center immediately became vigilant.
Although they couldn’t see for themselves, they sat up straight, waiting for real-time reports from the jets.
About two minutes later, the jets reported again, “Report, the seven figures on the ground are moving, running back the way they came from…”
Wang Dezhen quickly reacted. “They are retreating, the mission has failed…”
“Unit 25688, cool down the missile and stand by!”
In the forest, Chu Zixuan led a few people to run quickly.
Thankfully, he had agreed with the rest beforehand that when he says run, they run, ensuring that they would move together at the first moment…
“What’s going on?”
“What’s chasing us?”
People were at a loss, not knowing what Chu Zixuan had seen, but from the fierce shaking of the ground, they knew that something big was coming! They were also puzzled by the roaring sound they had heard earlier.
In this apocalypse, could there still be tigers alive?
At this moment, Chu Zixuan was speechless.
In his mental detection, the giant tiger was rapidly closing in with an astonishing speed, he didn’t have time to calculate how fast it was, just knowing it was much faster than the fastest high-speed train! Eight kilometers, seven kilometers, six kilometers…
Damn it.
He shouted anxiously, “Everyone, keep your superpowers active, don’t stop…” But it was too late.
The giant tiger was incredibly fast despite its heavy weight. Every step caused the ground to shake violently.
Xuan Qiao, unfortunately, slipped and fell while crossing a trembling tree trunk.
At that moment, the faint light shield around the team instantly disappeared.
Chu Zixuan realized… the shield has failed…
Everyone, hearing the thunderous sounds from afar, were shocked and hurriedly fled back the way they came!
“Don’t run!”
Chu Zixuan yelled, but the other five people didn’t listen to him and ran even faster.
Damn it!
America!
Upon seeing this, Chu Zixuan quickly ran to Xuan Qiao, who had fallen and couldn’t move his legs, and pulled him up, slapping him back to his senses with a resounding smack.
He scolded angrily. “Turn on your aura shield and run with me!”
Xuan Qiao, already panicked and indecisive, did as he was told and quickly activated the aura shield.
Seeing this, Chu Zixuan pulled him along and quickly fled in a slightly different direction.
Simultaneously, he continuously adjusted his direction based on the intel from his mental power.
“Unit 25688, report the situation quickly!”
“Reporting in, the seven individuals on the ground have dispersed; five are running back the way they came, while the other two are fleeing in a different direction…
“All fighters lower altitude; once the giant tiger appears, attack immediately with missiles!” Wang Dezhen commanded.
At this time, he could only hope that these missiles could once more scare off the giant tiger, giving the superpowered people a chance to escape!
Upon his command, the three fighter jets immediately folded their wings and rapidly began to descend, simultaneously activating their radar to intensely scan the perimeter of the dark forest.
Soon, as they descended to an altitude of 5000 meters, the giant tiger appeared.
“Target has appeared…”
“Launch the missile for interception…”
“No way!”
Subject 25688 anxiously said, “Based on the simulation of the missile’s impact, the aftermath of its blast will kill everyone else once it’s launched!”
“Damn it, why didn’t you say so earlier!”
Wang Dezhen was furious at this point. Despite acting second, his effort was useless.
“All fighters lower altitude by two thousand meters, use light weapons to distract the target…’
Wang Dezhen could only hope that this would work somehow!
In the forest, Chu Zixuan, who was running at high speed, heaved a sigh of relief after getting some distance pulling Xuan Qiao.
Because, the giant tiger was chasing the others now.
However, judging by the way the tiger looked at the direction they were running to, danger still existed!
Thinking of this, Chu Zixuan a no longer held back his power. He took out a skateboard from his backpack, put it under his feet without saying a word, pulled Xuan Qiao, and the two jumped on it promptly.
Then, something incredible happened.
The skateboard, which could only slide on flat ground, took off into the air, carrying them at a speed three times faster than before, fleeing southwards.
“Ratatat-
The fighter’s built-in 27 mm rotary cannon began firing instantly.
This ammunition could penetrate a wall ten centimeters thick. But for the giant tiger, it didn’t even bother to evade the attack and showed not the slightest damage.
“Report, the giant tiger is chasing after the five fleeing people…”
“Report, the five escapees are separating…”
“Report, one person is dead…” “Report, another person is dead…”
The command center fell silent
Chu Zixuan, while witnessing people dying one after the other, calculated that even if he ran at full speed, it would take him at least ten minutes to exit the forest.
Thinking of this, he paused, stood still, and closed his eyes tightly.
“What’s wrong?”
Xuan Qiao who initially felt relieved of their airborne escape asked anxiously.
But, Chu Zixuan didn’t have time to respond.
When his superpower reached orange level, his mental power became much stronger, and more importantly, his telekinetic power enhanced.
He intended to keep this power a secret, but he had to expose it sooner than expected.
Without revealing it, he would be done soon!
Theoretically, the farther he could ‘see’ with his mental power, the farther his telekinetic power could control.
But in reality, the consumption of telekinetic power depends on the weight and size of the object being moved, and the greater the object’s distance from him, the more power it consumed!
However, the strange thing is, even though he could lift weights of several tons, he couldn’t lift himself, so he still had to use something like a skateboard as a medium if he wanted to fly.
He guessed this might have something to do with the fact that even the strongest man couldn’t lift himself up!
The moment he closed his eyes, his mental power burst forth again, stretching all the way to Luo An City, thirty kilometers away.
In an instant, he covered the entire city, and found Du Gang’s room – Du Gang was still sleeping.
So, he quickly used his telekinetic power, swiftly found an old cluttered rattle in a pile, controlled it to fly slowly to Du Gang’s side.
“Dong, Dong, Dong, Dong, Dong, Dong…”
The drum’s rapid sound woke Du Gang, and the Ancient God’s spear instinctively appeared.
When he looked closely, he saw a rattle drum floating before his eyes.
Just then, a piece of paper and a pen flew over, hastily wrote the words “Save me”, and the pen pointed in a direction!
Du Gang immediately understood that this was Chu Zixuan’s telekinetic power, he was in danger!
Without a moment’s delay, he quickly jumped out of the window and transformed into a 23-meter tall giant, rushing towards the North without hesitation..
