Chapter 1065: Xiao Han's Grass-Type Ability, Facing Huo Jinglin Wakes Up

~7 min read 1,350 words

Being cared for by Xiao Han like this, Ning Chen was somewhat surprised; he raised an eyebrow, did not refute, but also did not leave, simply maintaining his original posture.

"Tsk, truly troublesome."

Seeing Ning Chen remain still, Xiao Han thought Ning Chen was unable to move due to exhaustion, so he reached out and clasped Ning Chen's hand.

A warm current surged into Ning Chen's heart, while a faint green light emanated from Xiao Han's hand.

This is... a Grass-type ability?

Ning Chen looked at Xiao Han, waiting for his explanation.

"A Grass-type ability, but not an attack type; it is more of a healing type. Your light energy should be similar, right?"

Feeling the weakness within his body gradually fill up, Ning Chen also withdrew his hand.

"Mm, thank you."

Xiao Han sneered slightly: "Heh, I didn't want to help you; I just feared that if you died, we couldn't return. Besides, this vehicle only listens to you."

Ning Chen said nothing; of course, he knew Xiao Han's thoughts, but regardless, the other party had at least helped him.

"I obtained my ability during the fight just now, and I also unexpectedly looted some things from a person wearing a researcher's outfit."

Having finished speaking, Xiao Han tossed a notebook to Ning Chen, on which was written "Experimental Log."

Just as Ning Chen was about to open it and look, Xiao Han suddenly spoke.

"It is not safe here; look at it when we return. Coincidentally, that one hasn't woken up yet."

Ning Chen glanced at Facing Huo Jinglin lying on the ground, nodded, then stepped forward, lifted him, and hoisted him onto his shoulder.

Facing Huo Jinglin:... Although I am unconscious, could you at least be gentle with me?!

Carrying Facing Huo Jinglin into the RV, Lin Yi and Gu Yanqi were staring with wide eyes, watching them.

Obviously, these two had woken up long ago; they probably stayed inside the RV waiting, afraid to go out and cause trouble.

Lin Yi helped place Facing Huo Jinglin on the cot, looked at his still tightly closed eyes, and asked worriedly, "Brother Ning, is Facing Huo Jinglin okay?"

Ning Chen said nothing; instead, he walked up to Xiao Han, who had been ignoring Facing Huo Jinglin, and took Facing Huo Jinglin's hand.

Lin Yi's face was full of vigilance, and his voice involuntarily became stiff: "What are you doing?"

"Heh, giving him a checkup. Aren't you worried he won't wake up?"

Hearing Xiao Han's explanation, Lin Yi looked at Xiao Han strangely instead: "You would be this kind?"

It was no wonder Lin Yi couldn't believe it; after all, the current Xiao Han was still the bad one. As the saying goes, a weasel paying respects to a chicken has no good intentions.

Xiao Han, who wanted to do a good deed:...

"Lin Yi, let him check."

Just as Xiao Han was internally cursing himself a thousand times for meddling and about to let go, Ning Chen spoke.

With Ning Chen's words, Lin Yi naturally would not say anything more, except...

Lin Yi looked curiously at Ning Chen; since when did his Brother Ning trust an enemy so much?

Xiao Han held Facing Huo Jinglin's hand, slowly emitting a green light; gradually, the green light wrapped around Facing Huo Jinglin's entire body. After about a minute, the green light dispersed, and Xiao Han also let go of his hand.

"He is fine. If nothing unexpected happens, he will wake up when the sun rises today."

Xiao Han had only just obtained this ability; having treated Ning Chen before and now checking Facing Huo Jinglin's body, he now felt very exhausted.

Given this situation, Lin Yi would not be unaware that Xiao Han had obtained an ability; he muttered, "Really, letting this person obtain an ability... who knows what will happen."

Xiao Han naturally heard Lin Yi's words, but he had no mood to argue with the other party; he stood up and walked toward the passenger seat to lie down.

"His ability is Grass, a healing type." Before heading to the driver's seat, Ning Chen explained Xiao Han's situation to Lin Yi and Gu Yanqi.

This sentence seemed to be an explanation to the two, but in reality, it was to dispel the vigilance in Lin Yi's heart.

Xiao Han, who was closing his eyes, heard Ning Chen's words, opened them slightly, and then closed them again.

Ning Chen sat in the driver's seat and also rested; he actually had not dispelled his vigilance toward Xiao Han.

But in this world, it was clearly not a good opportunity to part ways; just as Xiao Han said, to return, they still needed each other's abilities.

Moreover, Ning Chen felt something strange; regarding this person, Xiao Han, there were too many inconsistencies in him, including this personality of absolute good and absolute evil.

In his thoughts, Ning Chen drifted off to sleep in a daze.

In his dream, Ning Chen was woken by a scent.

He opened his eyes; this scent was clearly that of grilled skewers.

Ning Chen got up and looked at the sofa; only to see that Lin Yi and Facing Huo Jinglin were gone, and the RV door was open.

Arriving at the entrance, he saw Lin Yi busily grilling skewers, Gu Yanqi preparing ingredients nearby, and Facing Huo Jinglin, who had originally been unconscious, eating a skewer of meat.

Seeing Ning Chen come out, Facing Huo Jinglin picked up a grilled skewer from the side and handed it to Ning Chen.

"Brother Ning, Lin Yi told me everything. These past two days have been really hard on you. I, Facing Huo Jinglin, owe you a life."

Ning Chen took the skewer, shook his head, and said, "You are the ones I brought; it is necessary for me to protect you. How is your body?"

"Very good, I feel refreshed and energetic." Having finished speaking, Facing Huo Jinglin opened his hand; his palm filled with electric current, and then he flicked it to the side. The trees nearby were instantly cut in half and fell down.

"Brother Ning, I can fight with you too and protect everyone."

In short, in this apocalypse, obtaining a life-saving ability is a very good thing.

The morning sun rose; Ning Chen looked at the distant sun, feeling the sensation of light on his body.

A new day, also a new beginning.

The meat grilled quickly; before long, there was a large table full of it. Ning Chen came to Gu Yanqi's side and took the vegetables from her hand.

"Go wash your hands."

Gu Yanqi looked at the remaining vegetables: "I want to finish them; there aren't many left."

But Ning Chen said nothing, his attitude exceptionally firm.

Gu Yanqi pouted, looking as if her mood was not very good.

Seeing this situation, Lin Yi hurried over and said, "Sister Yanqi, just listen to Brother Ning; go wash your hands first. I can't keep up with the grilling; if there isn't enough, I'll make more."

Since Lin Yi had said so, Gu Yanqi naturally would not refuse again; she hurried to the RV to wash her hands.

Seeing that Gu Yanqi showed no angry mockery, Lin Yi also breathed a sigh of relief, looking at Ning Chen with the frustration of one who loves steel but cannot forge it.

"Brother Ning, you say you are quite formidable in other respects, yet why do you not know how to be gentle with a young lady? After all, you were once husband and wife with her. Girls must be coaxed; with the few words you just spoke, this could cause the Renwu Society to misunderstand."

After speaking, Lin Yi glared at Ning Chen, then went back to roasting his own things, leaving Ning Chen to ponder on his own.

In truth, Ning Chen was not incapable of coaxing others; it was just that for so long, he had been living by his memories. When the person from those memories suddenly appeared, Ning Chen did not know how to face her.
