Chapter 1205: Recapturing the Infected
Upon learning that Ning Chen and his team had accepted and completed an SSS-rank mission, a trace of malice flashed in the eyes of the man injured by Ning Chen.
He looked at the roof of Ning Chen's vehicle, narrowed his eyes, and then feigned an expression of extreme fear.
"There, there are infected! You actually brought infected with you!" the man shouted while extending his hand to unleash flames.
Before anyone nearby could react, the flames were already surrounding and burning the infected one.
Gu Yanqi hurriedly unleashed her ability to extinguish those flames, but unfortunately, it was too late; the infected one had already been burned to a crisp.
And the man kept muttering in his mouth: "Kill them, kill them all!"
"Hey! What are you doing! You actually killed the infected we caught!" Lin Yi rolled up his sleeves, ready to rush forward.
Having witnessed Ning Chen's performance earlier, the man's teammates hurried to his side and began to explain: "Look, his mind isn't quite right; he didn't mean it. Please don't be angry."
Lin Yi was about to explode with rage; it wasn't just him, everyone else had also stepped forward. This infected one had been captured with great difficulty, representing everyone's hard work, yet it was destroyed like this.
Even Huo Jinglin, who rarely got angry, now had eyes filled with fury.
Tianze did not stop Ning Chen's people from confronting the other side, after all, what the other side had done was truly excessive.
"Um, he, he really didn't mean it, can you please not be angry?" the only female on the other side stepped out and said cautiously, though her words sounded full of guilt.
Lin Yi was furious: "Didn't mean it? What do you mean didn't mean it?"
Both sides were deadlocked; the man's teammates still felt full of fear facing Ning Chen's group, but since that was their teammate, they couldn't just ignore him.
Just as Lin Yi was about to use his ability to drag them into his own space for torture, Ning Chen walked over and patted his shoulder.
Lin Yi stepped aside, just about to whisper something in his ear, when he saw Ning Chen's eyes, cold to the extreme; at this moment, Ning Chen radiated coldness, clearly enraged.
Lin Yi swallowed hard and decisively shut his mouth; he rarely saw Ning Chen like this, but at times like this, the other party usually ended up in terrible trouble.
Thinking of this, Lin Yi suddenly felt a sense of schadenfreude; let him act, now Brother Ning is angry, isn't this just asking for death!
At this moment, Ning Chen was indeed very angry, so angry he could barely contain it; just as Lin Yi said, this infected one was captured by Lin Yi and the others through combined effort, holding great significance, yet it was destroyed by someone like this.
Ning Chen walked directly to the front of that group: "Heh, didn't mean it? Whether you meant it or not, you all know clearly in your hearts."
Ning Chen's words were like a demon's whisper, making everyone dare not move a muscle; they did not doubt for a second that if they made any move, they would be dead with no place to bury themselves the next second.
Ning Chen passed them and went straight to the man, kicking him directly in the knee.
The man instantly fell to his knees, letting out a muffled groan.
Ning Chen looked down at the man, his low, hoarse voice sounding in the man's ear: "Since you don't want to live, I'll send you on your way."
The man trembled all over, even his teeth couldn't help but chatter; having witnessed Ning Chen's terrifying appearance, he already regretted it.
"I, I was wrong, I was wrong." Tears streaming down, the man completely abandoned his dignity for the hope of life.
The man clung to Ning Chen's pant leg, begging Ning Chen.
Ning Chen stepped back, leaving the man's range, then turned and walked toward the vehicle.
Just as the man thought Ning Chen had let him go, he heard words that filled him with despair.
"Xiao Han, tie him up and take him back."
Xiao Han's vines instantly covered the man's entire body; with a sudden force, the vines flung the man to the spot where the infected one had just been.
Beneath the man lay the already burned infected one, a foul stench emanating from it, causing the man to retch uncontrollably.
Ning Chen pulled Gu Yanqi back into the vehicle, and Lin Yi and the others followed closely behind.
Seeing the situation resolved for the moment, Tianze got into the vehicle, started the engine, and prepared to leave.
The girl from the tied-up man's team, upon realizing what was happening, hurriedly urged everyone to get into their vehicle; they still had to follow the other vehicle back!
What the few of them did not expect was that Ning Chen and his group did not return immediately, but instead drove around the infected gathering spot several times.
The man on the roof shivered in fear, seriously suspecting that Ning Chen intended to throw him into the infected.
And as if to confirm the man's thoughts, the vehicle suddenly stopped.
The man closed his eyes in despair.
But what the man did not expect was that he was not thrown down.
He opened his eyes and saw only Ning Chen and Xiao Han walking out from inside.
Ning Chen's target was simple: the intermediate-level infected in the middle of this group of infected.
The infected, completely unguarded, attacked Ning Chen and Xiao Han.
Ning Chen and Xiao Han simply stood where they were, seemingly completely unaffected by them.
The few people in the other vehicle were dumbfounded seeing this scene.
And what made them even more stunned was that Ning Chen, standing there, extended one hand, and white-gold light emanated from his palm, enveloping the infected rushing toward him.
They instantly stood still, motionless.
Ning Chen simply clenched his hand slightly, and those infected instantly turned into fragments, falling to the ground.
All around, only that one intermediate-level infected with a yellow crystal on its forehead remained.
Vines suddenly appeared from the ground; Xiao Han waved his hand, and the vines wrapped around that intermediate-level infected, even binding its mouth shut.
The two of them resolved the battle very easily, and moreover... they bound that intermediate-level infected, leaving the opponent with no chance to fight back.
Is this human power?
The few people in the other vehicle were all dumbfounded.
Xiao Han threw that intermediate-level infected onto the vehicle as well, lying next to the man.
The scent of humans made that intermediate-level infected extremely excited; it drooled, staring fixedly at the man.
The vehicle started; they were returning.
The man on the vehicle, stared at menacingly by that intermediate-level infected, not only fainted from fear but even wet his pants.
The vehicle drove steadily on the road; catching another intermediate-level infected improved the atmosphere in the vehicle considerably.
Tianze was thinking about how to report today's events; naturally, he would tell the truth, but he still wanted to add some embellishment.
That man definitely could not be allowed to stay; otherwise, there would be endless trouble later; he still had to think about how to tell Noah, after all, this person belonged to his team.
