Listening to Wang Jue's story, Xu Xiaoxiao's face was full of seriousness.

"So, becoming an enhancer means you have nine card slots, and the foreign genes you injected into me earlier were the first card set inserted into my card slots."

"Well, that's right, but there are two things I want to remind you."

Wang Jue nodded and continued.

"First of all, before you awaken your ability, you are always just an enhancer. Don't think that by injecting foreign genes, you can become a first-level ability user;"

"Second, after awakening your ability, try to keep the information about your ability secret as much as possible. Don't reveal it easily until the critical moment."

"Um... I can understand the first point, but what does the second point mean? Do I still need to hide my abilities after I awaken? Being a first-level ability user, doesn't it mean that I am better than others? Are you strong?"

Xu Xiaoxiao said doubtfully.

In fact, it’s not surprising that a girl would have this idea. Just imagine, an ordinary person suddenly one day possesses superhuman strength or a special ability only seen in movies. How can his heart not expand?

It would be nice if you don’t walk sideways!

But Wang Jue warned Xu Xiaoxiao to keep a low profile as much as possible after awakening his ability, and not to reveal his ability easily until the critical moment.

Why is this?

Faced with the girl's question, Wang Jue did not answer immediately, but thought for a moment, seemingly arranging his words.

But after organizing for a long time, a look of giving up finally appeared on the woman's face. After a short sigh, she spoke straightforwardly.

"Can you please stop asking? Anyway, if you are asked to keep a low profile, just keep a low profile. I will definitely not harm you."

Due to her special status, this woman with short gray hair knew too much information.

She also wanted to tell the girl in front of her why she did this, but it was too early now.

Secrets must always be told at the right time to highlight their special meaning.

Otherwise it is just a weak message.

"Then don't ask, don't ask, you saved me, I just listen to your advice."

Seeing Wang Jue's troubled look, the girl stopped asking further questions, blinked her bright almond eyes, and refocused her attention on the food next to her...

After eating all the food that Shao Xiuqi brought, Xu Xiaoxiao was finally sixty full.

Seeing that E Qiu Qianjun was in stable condition on the hospital bed, and Wang Jue seemed to be concentrating on his own affairs, the girl saw that there was no place for her to help, so she left the carriage.

Since the large army swapped the convoy head to tail when they came out of Yunlong Town, the black Tesla that was originally at the end of the convoy is now at the front of the convoy.

Walking calmly to the front of the motorcade, Xu Xiaoxiao moved quickly and skillfully got into the Tesla.

It was ten o'clock in the evening, but none of the survivors in the car had any rest.

When Xu Xiaoxiao opened the car door, he happened to hear a few people chatting about something.

"Xiao Xiao is back?"

Shao Xiuqi had actually noticed Xu Xiaoxiao's approach a long time ago. After a hasty greeting, she continued to discuss with Uncle Ni and Yan Hanben.

There seemed to be differences in the opinions of the three people. Although the atmosphere in the car was harmonious, there seemed to be a touch of unfamiliarity in their words.

"Yan Hanben, you shouldn't have let Captain Zhang go out in the first place. It's okay now. Ma Long is missing and Zhang Jike is missing too!"

"Can you blame me? Xiao Xiao went out at that time. Captain Zhang saw that she didn't come back, so he went out."

Yan Hanben argued in a low voice with a look of grievance on his face.

"Then you should stop him, Captain Zhang is still injured!"

Shao Xiuqi refused to give up. This young woman's tenderness seemed to be engraved in her bones, but she was the only one who treated her...

When her husband spoke, his attitude seemed casual and forceful.

"You and Uncle Ni didn't stop you either... I thought if I just went out for a while, there would be no problem, but I didn't know that after I went out, it turned out like this..."

"It's your fault anyway!"

Yan Hanben's feeble defense seemed to make Shao Xiuqi's anger grow stronger. The young woman crossed her arms and tilted her head after saying a word, no longer looking at the man in the driver's seat.

"Okay, okay, now that things have happened, there is no point in us arguing here. We can only pray that God will keep Captain Zhang and Ma Long safe..."

Uncle Ni tried to smooth things over and calmly persuaded the quarreling couple.

"Actually, it's all my fault..."

Xu Xiaoxiao had remained silent since entering the car. After listening to what the three discussed, his mood became depressed again.

Ma Long's disappearance may have nothing to do with her, but Zhang Jike was indeed tricked by her.

If she hadn't been too impulsive and rushed into the crowd thinking she was invincible, Zhang Jike would not have put himself in danger, let alone disappear.

As soon as these words came out, the car fell into silence.

In fact, no one really wants to shirk responsibility, but the loss of Ma Long and Zhang Jike made their team of survivors instantly lose their backbone.

In times of panic, there will be scenes of shirking responsibility.

"well……"

Shao Xiuqi looked away from the window and sighed softly.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. The only thing I'm worried about now is whether the remaining few of us can reach the Siming Mountain shelter safely."

"Just follow the big army. We should be able to arrive tomorrow. Although we have taken a bit of a detour, the distance between Yunlong Town and Siming Mountain is not that far."

After being depressed for a while, Yan Hanben recovered his mood and spoke.

"But, without Zhang Jike and Ma Long, can we still follow the large army..."

Shao Xiuqi obviously thinks more than Yan Hanben, and has a more pessimistic attitude towards the future than the other party.

Because in her memory, the large army did not intend to take the initiative to rescue survivors.

Being able to follow the large army before was, in a sense, thanks to the relationship between Zhang and Ma, two soldiers.

But now that the whereabouts of Zhang and Ma are unknown, does it mean that the large forces may drive them away as survivors at any time.

"It's definitely possible. They are all soldiers, and we don't put any burden on them. We just go along with them..."

Yan Hanben had a strong trust in the soldiers and answered with an affirmative look.

"If we just follow and don't cause any trouble, they will definitely not drive us away; but if we encounter some danger on the way, they will also not take care of us..."

Uncle Ni pointed out the problem to the point.

Judging from the current situation, without the presence of Zhang Jike and Ma Long, the priority of protecting their team of survivors has been invisibly lowered to the lowest level.

Maybe if necessary, they might be abandoned or used as bait.

Situations that were sensational before the disaster may become commonplace after the disaster.

After all, once the superficial veil of human nature is removed, it becomes a rather ugly monster.

The car fell into silence again. Everyone felt that what Uncle Ni said was too absolute and wanted to speak out to refute, but found that they could not find a suitable reason.

Just when several people were silent again, the rumble of a car engine came from far away and came closer.

Looking out the window, I saw a military jeep with an aggressive look.

After the large group swapped heads and tails, the jeep that was originally at the head followed behind. Now it drove up, probably to adjust its position.

Sure enough, the jeep quickly crossed the black

The beautiful Tesla stopped at the front of the queue.

The car door opened, and a relatively thin soldier walked out.

With just one glance, Xu Xiaoxiao recognized this person.

When Qiu Qianjun was dragged back to the carriage by Wang Jue just now, most of the soldiers had expressions of intolerance and sympathy on their faces, except for him who had gloating on his face.

This person is none other than Dugu Po.

I saw him whispering a few words to the soldiers beside him, as if giving some orders.

However, the soldier who obeyed the order did not immediately turn around and carry out the order. Instead, he showed a troubled expression on his face.

After repeated exchanges for a while, the soldier finally walked towards the back of the convoy with Dugu Po's increasingly gloomy expression.

"Look, the leader seems to have given some order..."

Shao Xiuqi pushed Uncle Ni beside her with her arm and whispered.

The young woman didn't know Dugu Po's identity, but she only knew that his military rank seemed to be the same as Qiu Qianjun's. They were both leaders of a large army, so they used the title "leader" instead.

Uncle Ni looked through the window for a while, with a worried expression on his face.

"This man's face doesn't look very kind..."

I don't know if Uncle Ni was right, but Dugu Po, who was still checking in private before, turned his head to where the car was in the next second.

"Fuck, he's coming over!"

Yan Hanben, who was sitting in the cab, saw the other party moving his eyes towards them and whispered in fear.

Since the Jeep was at the front of the convoy, it was only a few steps away from the Tesla.

While he was talking, Dugu Po had already walked to the car.

But before he could lightly press the window, Xu Xiaoxiao opened the door and walked out.

"Hello, I'm Dugupo."

Dugu Po did not expect that the survivors in the car would come out on their own initiative. Before he could sort out the gloomy expression on his face, he was mixed with a smile that was forcibly lifted up.

The skin smiles but the flesh does not smile.

Xu Xiaoxiao snorted in his heart, but his face didn't show too much unfriendliness, and he responded in a formulaic manner.

"Hello, Captain Dugu, do you have any plans for coming here so late?"

"Oh, that's it. Zhang Jike and Ma Long stayed with your survivor team earlier. I felt relieved to have them take care of them, so they didn't come over."

Dugu Po quickly cleared up the expression on his face and said hypocritically.

"Now the whereabouts of the two of them are unknown. The large army has suffered huge casualties before, and some people are panicking. So I came over to take a look and see if your survivor team is in trouble and may need our help."

After Dugu Po finished speaking, the girl's face didn't look strange, but the expressions of the people in the car changed.

On the surface, this seems to be a thoughtful condolence to see if you have any difficulties.

But understood from another perspective, it can also be regarded as a warning.

Warn them that these survivors need to know their place.

"Oh, thank you, Captain Dugu. We don't have any difficulties here for the time being."

The carefree Xu Xiaoxiao naturally didn't think so much, and just answered the other party's question literally.

"It's fine if you don't have one. If you have any difficulties, don't be afraid. Just come to me directly."

Dugu Po smiled, seeming to be very satisfied with the girl's answer.

But there was a subtle hint of fear in his eyes.

"If there's nothing else, I'll leave first. It's midnight after twelve o'clock, and the density of patrols will be strategically lowered. It's better for you to stay in the car and not come out. It's safer this way."

After saying this, Dugu Po immediately turned around and walked towards the back of the motorcade...
