    Chapter 71 Chapter 71: Voting Starts Now!

    Xing Zi Mu was the first to react, taking out a Spiritual Power Restoration Agent from his pocket and handing it to Chu Qi.

    Chu Qi took the agent directly and downed it in one gulp, feeling the dull pain in his heart ease as his spiritual power was slowly replenished.

    Xing Zi Mu looked up at the barrier that had been repaired, his expression becoming even more serious. He shoved all the Spiritual Power Restoration Agents he had on hand into Chu Qi’s hands.

    Chu Qi took a few deep breaths, his complexion improving a lot. He knew that his body wouldn’t last long without the help of Spiritual Power Restoration Agents.

    But he still pushed one bottle back.

    He said, “At least keep one for yourself.”

    Xing Zi Mu didn’t take it, “I’m just an ordinary person without any Spiritual Power, it’s useless to me.”

    Chu Qi knew he was right. He turned his head, his eyes meeting Xiang Li’s through the screen.

    The other had finished smashing, carrying the club on his shoulder, staring at Chu Qi without blinking, the concern in his eyes was not fake.

    Chu Qi shook his head, calming his mind. Now was not the time to think about those things.

    He said, “Summon all soldiers, issue orders, clear out the Polluted Entities within the barrier, and do everything possible to find Wu Kun, Qi Xiao, and others.”

    “Once found, report immediately.”

    Xing Zi Mu and Shen Gui stood up straight, “Yes.”

    Sang Quan Shi Li had the screen snatched away by Xiang Li, and only blinked.

    He said, “My home is gone.”

    Xiang Li carried the club, “I’ll compensate you.”

    Sang Quan Shi Li shook his head outside the screen, pointing at the Polluted Entities that occasionally flashed on the screen.

    Sang Quan Shi Li: “I want them.”

    Xiang Li frowned: “?”

    Sang Quan Shi Li did not explain, just repeating, “I want them.”

    Xiang Li’s club tapped on the ground with a “da” sound. Sang Quan Shi Li blinked subconsciously. He didn’t notice a wisp of black Spiritual Power drilling into his body along the ground from the bottom of the club.

    Xiang Li frowned, the Spiritual Power entering Sang Quan Shi Li’s body.

    The latter only frowned slightly, not showing any resistance.

    The Spiritual Power searched everywhere in Sang Quan Shi Li’s body, finally seeing a chaotic, cocoon-like heart at his chest.

    Xiang Li: “…”

    He grabbed Sang Quan Shi Li by the back of his collar like a chick, taking him towards Yan Zhou Ping.

    He threw him directly in front of Yan Zhou Ping.

    Yan Zhou Ping: “??”

    Chu Qi: “?”

    Sang Quan Shi Li: “..”

    Xiang Li: “Check his physical condition. See if any of the previous experimental data matches him.”

    Yan Zhou Ping didn’t have any instruments on him, and planned to take him home for a look, just to be safe.

    Yan Zhou Ping: “Can you ask your doctor to lend a hand?”

    Chu Qi knew Yan Zhou Ping was talking about Lin Wu, but Lin Wu was currently overwhelmed with work on the Polluted Entity antidote.

    Chu Qi: “I’ll send him a message.”

    Yan Zhou Ping: “Okay, have him come to the lab, I’ll have Ning Le pick him up.”

    Xiang Li took the opportunity to get close to Chu Qi, reaching out to cover Chu Qi’s fingers on the device with his palm.

    He said, “Let me do it.”

    Chu Qi frowned, “No.” He said without the slightest hesitation.

    Xiang Li wouldn’t listen, “I won’t die. If you overexert your Spiritual Power, humanity’s chances of winning will be reduced by another point.”

    Chu Qi gritted his teeth, enduring the pain surging in his chest, still disagreeing.

    “If you really think so, then hurry up and solve Wu Kun and the others.”

    Chu Qi supported his limbs. When Xiang Li wasn’t around, Yan Zhou Ping had told him a lot.

    Xiang Li was a monster of gene combinations, which meant that his gene chains were independently cooperative, not fused.

    If overexertion occurred, parts of his body would collapse due to loss of balance.

    This was why Xiang Li occasionally experienced sensory shutdown.

    It wasn’t just a matter of dying or not.

    This was also why Yan Zhou Ping didn’t want Xiang Li and Chu Qi to become too deeply involved, afraid that Xiang Li would do something reckless because of Chu Qi.

    Chu Qi knew his own strength. He had no chance of winning against Wu Kun and the others, so it was better to let Xiang Li go.

    At least in combat, Xiang Li wouldn’t suffer a loss.

    Xiang Li thought for a second, then disappeared on the spot, the range of black Spiritual Power spreading wider than ever before.

    Chu Qi was right, he could only find Wu Kun and the others as soon as possible.

    Perhaps because the device was destroyed by Xiang Li, the Polluted Entities’ attacks were no longer as crazy as they were at the beginning, but they were still attacking the barrier.

    The dense net of silver-white Spiritual Power wasn’t as hard as the barrier; it was like a trampoline, moving up and down because of the Polluted Entities’ attacks.

    Xiang Li sensed every movement within range.

    Xue Hu Su walked around, the Polluted Entities afraid to approach him.

    A white bandage ran around him, not daring to go near him, but not scared of those Polluted Entities.

    The white bandage encircled the Polluted Entities without hesitation, then squeezed them into paste.

    Xue Hu Su: “Hehe.”

    He could finally vent the frustration of being dragged around to be blown up by Wu Xing, and it felt even better knowing that this was their scheme.

    Standing on the ground, sensing the Spiritual Power fluctuations from his brother, the tightening of the white bandage paused for a moment.

    Xue Hu Su: “What’s going on?”

    He hadn’t seen his brother search such a large area in a long time.

    Xue Hu Su didn’t dare to be careless, and directly told Yan Zhou Ping about the situation, heading towards the center of the Spiritual Power fluctuations.

    Yan Zhou Ping frowned upon receiving the message, which was keenly noticed by Ke Man beside him.

    Ke Man: “What’s wrong, Uncle Yan?”

    Since Ke Man woke up and learned that Yan Zhou Ping had saved him, he started calling Yan Zhou Ping “Teacher.”

    Yan Zhou Ping felt awkward, so the address was changed to “Uncle Yan.”

    Ke Man also saw the message from Xue Hu Su. Just then, Ning Le came in.

    Ning Le: “Old Yan, I brought the person.”

    Yan Zhou Ping called out to Ning Le, “Go help Xiang Li. He’s using his Spiritual Power recklessly again, hurry.”

    Ning Le’s small body stood on the star chart, and upon hearing this, said, “Okay.”

    Ke Man also said, “Let me go too.”

    Yan Zhou Ping looked Ke Man up and down. Yu Han next to him also said, “His body is almost recovered, he can skillfully use his metal limbs. He can help Xiang Li and the others if he goes.”

    Yan Zhou Ping thought for a moment, agreeing, “Okay.”

    Ke Man immediately passed by the panting Lin Wu and chased after Ning Le.

    Before Xue Hu Su could see Xiang Li, he ran into Wu Kun and his group first.

    When Xue Hu Su saw that face, he felt a faint numbness in his heart. The feeling of the other’s fingers rubbing on his heart felt like it had just happened.

    Wu Xing didn’t know what kind of hobby he had, but the first thing he did was confirm the location of his heart, then grab it in his hand from beginning to end, always putting it back in his body at the very end.

    As a result, Xue Hu Su always felt as if his life was being controlled by the other party.

    Xue Hu Su narrowed his eyes, at this moment he was not looking at that annoying face, but at Qi Xiao and Ning Li An behind him.

    Qi Xiao stood next to Ning Li An, the two holding hands. For some reason, Ning Li An’s expression seemed more lively than before.

    Wu Kun: “First time meeting. Are you the ‘Puzzle Man’ that Wu Xing has been liking recently?” he said with a smile.

    Xue Hu Su heard this, and knowing that Experiment Body Number 053 had two souls in one body, he understood that the person in front of him was “Wu Kun.”

    He scoffed, the bandage obediently wrapping around his wrist, raising his chin to expose the body around his neck that was also wrapped in bandages.

    Xue Hu Su’s eyes moved back and forth between the two people behind Wu Kun and Wu Kun himself.

    He was bad at everything else, but he was best at talking trash: “You only dare to appear in the sunlight openly now.”

    At the same time, he cursed Wu Xing in his heart: He’s a godd*mn “Puzzle Man.”

    Wu Kun wasn’t angry when he heard this, he just said, “After all, what we want is different. Compared to you, we do have to work a little harder.”

    As he spoke, he turned his head, his eyes meeting Xiang Li’s, who had rushed over quickly after receiving the message.

    Wu Kun raised his palm upwards, a metal chip floating in mid-air with his movement. Then, a window that couldn’t be closed no matter what appeared in front of all the surviving humans.

    Wu Kun: “We don’t mean to harm humans. I just want a position.”

    As he spoke, he reached out and pointed to a large iris icon hanging on the main base.

    Wu Kun: “The highest authority administrator of humanity.”

    Xiang Li didn’t want to listen to Wu Kun’s nonsense. He opened his hand towards the surrounding air, black Spiritual Power forming a vortex in his palm, then gradually expanding, finally forming a scythe shape.

    Xiang Li skillfully twirled the scythe like he usually did with his club. When the scythe finally stopped, a crack suddenly appeared on it, slowly pulling open to both sides—

    One, golden vertical pupil.

    And behind Xiang Li, the giant Dark Serpent was making a “hissing” sound, its eyes were the same gold.

    The snake head made an attacking gesture, staring at the three people on the ground.

    Xiang Li didn’t hesitate at all, launching an attack on the three of them. He hadn’t forgotten that Chu Qi was still continuously consuming his body to repair the barrier.

    When Xue Hu Su saw that a fight was about to break out, the bandage that had just wrapped around his wrist loosened again, his pair of red eyes slightly narrowed.

    Reaching out, the bandages on his body scattered, revealing the rotten body inside.

    “Fighting? I like it.”

    Xue Hu Su said, “It just so happens that I’ve been unhappy with your face for a long time.”

    Xiang Li wasn’t as talkative as Xue Hu Su, directly making his move.

    The scythe split the air, charging straight at the three of them. The Dark Serpent also began to move at this moment, its tail smashing towards the ground where the three were.

    Qi Xiao took the lead in protecting Ning Li An beside her, but Xue Hu Su’s bandage stabbed towards her, forcing the two to separate.

    Fortunately, Xiang Li’s focus of attack was on Wu Kun.

    Xue Hu Su controlled the bandage to fly past Qi Xiao, heading straight for Ning Li An. At the same time, Xue Hu Su narrowed his eyes, thoughtfully.

    While fighting Xiang Li, he could actually spare the energy to protect Qi Xiao and the others.

    Xiang Li clearly noticed Wu Kun’s actions as well, the black in his eyes becoming even more intense.

    The scythe in his hand transformed into a giant meteor hammer, one in each hand, like a giant lollipop. The heavy ball ends slammed hard at where the other party was.

    Wu Kun seemed to effortlessly dodge, bending his body into an incredible angle to avoid the snake tail sweeping from the side.

    When Ning Le and Ke Man rushed over, the few people were already entangled together, fighting fiercely.

    The two exchanged a look, immediately joining the battle.

    Even with three against four plus a snake, and one on their side who temporarily had no combat ability and needed protection, Wu Kun didn’t seem tired at all, but was becoming more and more relaxed.

    His eyes occasionally swept over the machine overhead that was broadcasting everything, a smile appearing on the corner of his lips.

    The more people who joined, the more their incompetence would be revealed.

    That way, humans would be able to more clearly recognize that they now only had one way to survive: to rely on him.

    In the moment of separation, Wu Kun stood still, Xiang Li’s weapon passing straight through his body, smashing on the ground, instantly cracking a spider web-like fissure.

    Wu Kun: “I only want that position, it’s still a vote.”

    “Five minutes.”

    Wu Kun raised his hands up, as if already welcoming victory, the corners of his mouth raised, his voice filled with excitement.

    “Voting starts now!”
