"What's wrong with these chickens, why do they each seem to have undergone nuclear radiation or something?"
Geng Yan’s expression was solemn. "It seems that during the apocalypse, we will not only need to face fear-inducing zombies but would also need to compare our strength with these mutated animals."
Moreover, who knows whether plants would mutate as the time passes by. If it really turns out that way, then the situation of human beings will become even more difficult.
Ji Anran’s small hand became tightly clenched. "Bad news, they’ve found us!"
Because that group of mutated chickens had been chasing to attack the previous group of ability users, they had now broken out over the wall surrounding the farmhouse. And as the original group had already slipped away in their van, the chickens have now set their sights on Geng Yan’s group.
It was just like how humans would look at insects. Though you knew that every bug might have some minute differences, however, if you were running after some insects, trying to smack them, yet they managed to slip away... In this situation, if you ran into the same kind of insects, where would you have the time or patience to tell what their differences were?
There was also no need to distinguish the differences, it wouldn’t be wrong to just keep attacking!
“Cluck-cluck-cluck!” The big rooster clamored and was the first to pounce over to launch an attack!
"Leave the car!" Geng Yan shouted.
Hearing this, Gao Xun immediately stomped on the brakes.
Everyone quickly opened the door, unfastened their seat belts, and left the car.
They all responded quickly and immediately started throwing out their abilities to bombard this group of chubby chickens.
The big rooster - who had initiated the attack - has already been shocked by Geng Yan's electricity into convulsing, there was even smoke was emitting from his feathers.
When Gao Xun had also gotten out of the car, Geng Yan quickly pulled the car into his space as well.
Gao Xun was very excited as he threw out fireballs one after another, seemingly as he was planning to make roast chicken.
“Cluck-cluck-cluck!”
The feathers on these chickens were very flamboyant and eyecatching, but they also burned very well. Gao Xun completely overpowered them, giving them a beat down. The chickens - which were on fire - were so scared that they began to scurry and flee everywhere. Some of them even directly rushed back into the farm.
"Let’s just eat chicken tonight!" Wei Yanhua stared at the stout chicken legs, then with a wave of his hand, a line of iron nails flew over, nailing several chickens to the ground.
One of the chickens flew up and managed to avoid Wei Yanhua's nails but was shot through by one of Ji Anran's arrows!
The tacit understanding between these two people was also quite alarming.
Meanwhile, Geng Yan was still fighting. Because he couldn't rest assured about Ji Anran, he had always kept an eye on the other.
But then... He saw the wonderful performance displayed by Ji Anran and Wei Yanhua as they stood side-by-side, cooperating with each other as they fought!
There were dozens of chickens in the flock. If they really were to fight them, it was estimated that Geng Yan's team would consume quite a bit of stamina. So they didn't chase and only kept a few of them behind.
"Ah, Gao Xun, this ability of yours is precisely a bother. With all the chickens on fire, the meat is almost all burnt, then what meaning would there be to even take them away?" The water-type ability holder, Zhong Rushui, complained.
Gao Xun was momentarily tongue-tied. "Then, next time, I'll do it more gently?"
When dealing with zombies, Gao Xun's ability was very lethal. But when it gets used against their fat and lovely supplies, then it was a bit troublesome.
"Fortunately, these chickens didn't have any abilities with high attack power but just had a bit of a thicker skin and flesh." Ji Anran wiped the sweat on his forehead as he gratefully sighed.
Gao Xun looked at the various holes on the ground that were formed after being pecked by the chickens’ beak, where the remaining pieces had even become gravel, and his mood became unprecedentedly complex.
These chickens were so ferocious, they could even fly, and their speed also wasn’t poor... If someone got pecked, their hand would probably become wasted, okay?!
What fuss are you trying to make using such a light and easy tone after all that? Take a look at that group of people who ran away in their vans as fast as they could. The strength of this group of chickens when they attack together is very terrifying, it’s just that our team is too strong, okay?!
Geng Yan's newly formed team of ability users was very strong. Such that, aside from the weather forecaster, Ji Anran, any one of them could go out independently to form a team, becoming a team leader themselves.
En… At least, it seemed that way on the surface.
"Anran, you did a good job just now. When we cooperate, we’re just truly impeccable." Wei Yanhua laughed, appearing completely incomparably beautiful.
And even when Zhong Rushui - a girl - saw, she couldn’t help but feel ashamed.
This demonically-beautiful man was just too handsome! If this wasn’t the apocalypse, she’d really want to sign him, or so thought the former agent - Zhong Rushui.
Seeing Wei Yanhua's eyesore of a smile, Geng Yan felt that his chest felt stuffy and blocked up, very uncomfortable.
So he just stared at Ji Anran, remaining extremely vigilant in his heart, afraid that his little lamb would be caught and stolen away by this cunning fox.
After quickly storing away all the gathered supplies, Geng Yan took out a bottle of water and handed it to Ji Anran. "Tired yet? Drink some water."
"I'm still okay."
Ji Anran, the “weakest” in the team, still appeared very relaxed, such that those not in the know might even assume he was here for an outing
Geng Yan brought out some benches, placing them down on the ground.
"Everyone had fought just now. Take a rest first and recover some of your ability."
Ji Anran chose the nearest bench and directly sat down. Geng Yan originally had already made sure to stand near Ji Anran, so upon seeing that the other had sat down, he immediately sat down on the other end of the bench.
One bench was only enough for two adults to sit. If three were to sit together, it would be a bit crowded.
When Wei Yanhua saw this, he only smiled slightly and went to sit beside Gao Xun.
Zhong Rushui was a woman, so it wouldn’t be right for him to sit with the other.
Seeing that bewitchingly-handsome face close that was such a short distance away, Gao Xun's heartbeat even missed a beat.
Gao Xun shifted his gaze back onto Geng Yan and did his best to completely ignore and forget that strange feeling.
"Geng-ge, are we going to continue and go inside to look for supplies? We don't even know whether we can eat these mutated big chickens. If we end up searching the entire day, only to find that we can't eat them as food, then wouldn’t it be a waste of effort?"
“Let's still go in and look for supplies. These animals had still been in good condition at the beginning of the apocalypse, and we also haven't heard of such occurrences after having stayed in the base for so long. So it is estimated that these animals had recently mutated. A farmhouse would have a lot of food inside, so there should still be some unaffected supplies.”
Geng Yan replied after thinking about it for a moment. He then took out a clean towel, stuffing it into Ji Anran's hand.
"Wipe your sweat."
Ji Anran held a towel, the smile on his lips couldn’t be hidden even if he attempted.
The meat of mutant animals could also be eaten, but he wouldn’t reveal that. He won’t expose the fact that he has been reborn for such a small matter.
