Too Many Reincarnators? I Bring the National Team to the Field - Chapter 143

Chapter 143

The Aberrant did not speak. His body swayed, his eyes dark and gloomy as he stared fixedly at Sheng An and Qi Lingwu.

Wu Buyu shook his head.

His mental voice was a mess, a cacophony of static that revealed no useful information.

They had experimented back at the Core Shelter; an Aberrant’s mental voice was different from that of a normal human. They could only catch a few sentences occasionally; most of the time, all they heard were echoes of “chaos,” “blood,” and “madness.”

This Aberrant was an extreme case.

Aside from chaos, there was nothing.

Sheng An tilted her chin slightly. “Do you want to leave?”

The Aberrant stared at her intensely. When he finally spoke, the words seemed to be squeezed out of a shredded throat.

“You would let me leave?”

Sheng An nodded. “If you cooperate with us, I will let you go. I keep my word.”

-She would let him go, but she never said she wouldn’t hunt him down afterward.

The man stared at her.

After a moment, he suddenly threw his head back and let out a piercing roar. “Hrrr-”

The sound was incredibly penetrating. Qi Lingwu frowned instinctively.

Wu Buyu was an Atavistic Mutant with fully enhanced senses. His ears twitched, and he immediately transformed into a birdman, soaring into the sky before quickly diving back down.

Wu Buyu’s expression was grim. “A large number of Aberrants are heading this way.”

The group’s brows furrowed.

“A Psychic Ability. He can emit mental fluctuations to transmit information. He might be the Leader of this Aberrant operation,” Song Linwei analyzed.

Hao Jingye sighed. “It seems we won’t be getting any inside information from this Aberrant. We’ll have to deduce the rest once we get back.”

He looked down at his communicator. After the Illusion Aberrant died, a intermittent signal had returned, and the Core Shelter had sent them several messages.

He had only received one.

Hao Jingye was a clever man; he could deduce a great deal from just that one message.

He looked up. “The Aberrants were using a diversion. While we were trapped here, the Core Shelter came under attack. Fortunately, the situation has been resolved.”

Even knowing that the enemy had summoned more Aberrants, no one mentioned leaving.

This was the best opportunity to annihilate a large number of them.

They weren’t afraid of Aberrants coming; they were afraid of them staying away.

Li Wanyun stared intently at the screaming Aberrant. That roar had exhausted his entire Supernatural Ability. As the sound died down, he collapsed straight back, his breathing stopping completely.

From the moment they had first surrounded Sheng An’s group, he and the Illusion Aberrant had been continuously draining their energy. Once the Illusion Aberrant died, he had no strength left to resist.

Now, that final roar had cost him his life.

Li Wanyun looked at him, then at the fallen woman, and suddenly cried out in surprise-

“It’s them!”

“Who?” Hao Jingye and the others all turned to look at her.

Long Tianyu frowned. “You recognize them?”

Li Wanyun exhaled slowly. “They were famous Aberrants in the Apocalypse during my Previous Life. In the first year, they didn’t operate around Jing City at all; they were in the south, where they wiped out several Bases.”

Long Tianyu’s pupils contracted as he suddenly realized. “It’s actually them!”

His expression turned dazed as he murmured, “That’s right… the combination of Illusion Realm and Psychic Ability, a man and a woman, killing invisibly…”

Wu Buyu was confused. “What’s the story?”

Long Tianyu’s expression became solemn. “These two were Aberrants who terrorized entire regions during the Apocalypse. Not only were they powerful, but they were also very adaptable. In my Previous Life, rumors said they were the ones who united with the Superpower Users to take down Qiu Yu.”

Qiu Yu had launched multiple suicide attacks on Bases occupied by Aberrants, and these two were the Elite among those who occupied such Bases. Thus, it was ultimately them who contacted the Superpower Users to eliminate Qiu Yu.

Li Wanyun added, “At the end of the second year of the Apocalypse, when I died, they were still alive.”

Hao Jingye and Song Linwei exchanged a look, seeing the same suspicion in each other’s eyes.

Song Linwei said, “He and the Illusion Aberrant are two more Aberrants who appeared ahead of schedule, just like Zhang Jialiang and Ms. Xu.”

Hao Jingye nodded. “That explains why their strength far exceeds the norm. They orchestrated the gathering of Aberrants in Shi City to seize the Meteorite Fragments, used a diversion, and attacked the Core Shelter to steal more Fragments…”
Qi Lingwu asked, “They’re from the south. Why would they show up here?”

This was a critical question.

Even if it was for the Meteorite Fragments, there were some in the south as well.

Hao Jingye’s brow furrowed.

*Bang!*

*Bang, bang-*

Aberrants began arriving one after another, surrounding them.

Aberrants in the early stages of the Apocalypse weren’t overly powerful yet, but in large numbers, they were still a nuisance.

Ji Yani’s scalp prickled. She really hadn’t expected there to be so many Aberrants on the outskirts of Jing City!

Long Tianyu cracked his neck, his body vanishing from the spot as he left behind a single sentence-

“Time to get to work!”

The more that came, the more Aberrants they could clear from the outskirts of Jing City. It would make the city safer, so it wasn’t necessarily a bad thing.

Long Tianyu used Flash to appear beside an Aberrant, slicing its throat instantly.

Li Wanyun gave a cold snort. “We know. We don’t need you to remind us.”

In the next moment, she unleashed a Spatial Blade, reaping lives.

Wu Buyu transformed into a birdman. Every time his sharp talons struck, he crushed a head.

Ji Yani gripped her twin blades, moving with extreme speed as she looked for openings to strike.

Song Linwei provided a buff to Yu Feng, allowing him to join the fray.

Zhuang Fan stood his ground. Whenever an Aberrant attacked him, he stared deathly into its eyes and activated his Supernatural Ability: “Burst!”

With a loud *bang*, the Aberrant exploded.

However, the drain on his energy was too great, and his face instantly turned pale.

Ji Yani appeared beside him and tilted her chin. “You support, I kill.”

Zhuang Fan nodded.

He stopped trying to obliterate Aberrants directly. Instead of “Burst,” he switched to “Stop!”

The moment the enemy froze, Ji Yani had already struck.

Qi Lingwu, meanwhile, controlled the overall situation. His Supernatural Ability covered the area as he fired shot after shot, silently picking off Aberrants.

Only Sheng An, with Shan Hua perched on her shoulder, remained still.

Her gaze was fixed on the two-year-old Doll in the dead woman’s arms. The Doll’s eyes were open, staring blankly at the sky. Despite the chaos, he didn’t cry or make a sound.

This Doll had appeared alongside the Illusion Aberrant and the Psychic Aberrant.

She would not overlook any potential crisis.

At two years old-perhaps not even two-it was hard to determine if he was an Aberrant. Qi Lingwu hadn’t been able to tell, and Wu Buyu hadn’t noticed anything unusual when he walked past earlier.

They couldn’t distinguish it.

It could be a human, or it could be an Aberrant.

Sheng An kept her eyes locked on the Doll and called out, “Li Wanyun, tranquilizer gun!”

In a brief gap between combat moves, Li Wanyun tossed a gun toward Sheng An.

Sheng An caught it and fired without hesitation.

Whether it was human or Aberrant, she would knock it out first.

The tranquilizer needle sank into the Doll’s body. He blinked his clear eyes and then slowly closed them.

Sheng An was about to switch guns to attack the Aberrants.

Suddenly, the heat that had been pulsing through her body turned scalding. A wave of dizziness hit her, nearly sending her to the ground. At the same time, fragmented images flashed before her blurred eyes. Her body could no longer support itself; she swayed as the world began to spin.

Core Shelter.

Zhao Zhicheng reported, “The Scientific Research Team is fine. Many of them are still alive. Rescue helicopters are bringing them back now. Zhang Kun and the others are seriously injured, but the Shelter hospital is ready. We will definitely save their lives.”

Li Xin breathed a sigh of relief. “That’s good. They’re Superpower Users with strong physiques. They won’t die easily.”

Gu Qiansheng nodded, also looking relieved.

Jiang Yu patted her chest, her expression relaxing. “Sister Sheng and the others arrived just in time. Thank goodness. This crisis is finally over. Now we just have to wait for Sister Sheng and the others to return.”

Standing beside them, Zhao Zhicheng nodded. “Yes…”

His hand suddenly shot out. He was three meters away from Jiang Yu-a safe distance-but his arm extended infinitely. Before anyone could react, he grabbed Jiang Yu by the throat and gave it a violent twist!
