TSIAGBICATMWI Chapter 188

Chapter 188: The Little Iron Ball

Gu Tangyue was doubled over with laughter at the antics of the father and son. It was too funny.

Luo Shuyou’s reaction was indifferent. He hated everything that the people he disliked did. He patted the laughing Gu Tangyue on the back, “Stop laughing, it’s over. Let’s go take a look.”

“Ah! It’s over already?” Gu Tangyue hurriedly followed Luo Shuyou. She had only been distracted for a few minutes, but when she looked over again, she found that the three people had already been tied up and thrown together. She didn’t know which of the three had captured the others first.

Luo Shuyou walked to Xie YunChuan’s side, opened his innocent big eyes, and asked, “Why are they tied up?” The unspoken meaning was that they were here to kill and rob, not to fight and capture prisoners.

Gu Tangxi said sullenly, “Didn’t find the thing.”

Gu Tangyue was puzzled, “Isn’t it on them?”

Gu Tangxi spread his hands, “We’ve searched everywhere, but we didn’t find it.”

Gu Tangyue: “Could it be that you didn’t search thoroughly enough?”

Gu Tangxi gave her a strange look, “What else? Should we strip them naked?”

“……”

Gu Tangyue stroked her chin thoughtfully and said, “It’s not like we can’t.”

Gu Tangxi moved two steps away from this pervert in disgust, “If you want to strip them, you can do it yourself.”

Gu Tangyue smiled and leaned over, “Hehe, I’m kidding. I don’t have a fetish for stripping people and looking at their naked bodies.”

“Is that so?” Gu Tangxi’s disbelieving eyes seemed to say – Yeah right, as if I believe you!

Luo Shuyou saw Xie YunChuan twirling a delicate black sphere in his hand. His curiosity was piqued and he asked, “What is that?”

Xie YunChuan handed it to him to show him the whole thing, “An energy storage device.”

“Hmm?” Luo Shuyou took the thing in his hand to study it. Xie YunChuan reminded him, “Be careful, it might be dangerous.”

“Okay, okay, I know. I’ll hold it gently.” This thing looked like a lump of iron on the outside, but it had hidden secrets inside. “Such a pure and rich energy aura. Does it absorb the energy inside like a crystal core to replenish depleted abilities?”

“Probably not.”

“Yeah, there’s no need.” Luo Shuyou thought, it would be redundant to go to so much trouble to extract the energy from the crystal core and concentrate it into such a small container if it was only for absorbing energy.

Xie YunChuan analyzed, “It should be some kind of explosive weapon with considerable destructive power.”

“Oh, so if he threw it at you and you caught it, does it explode wherever it lands like a firecracker?”

“More or less.”

In fact, it was instant kill. Xie YunChuan had been wary that Wu Zixiao might have some backup plan because Su Qingshan and the others had not acted all along. When he was forced into a desperate situation, his eyes showed a fierce look, and he deliberately widened the distance between them, Xie YunChuan was particularly vigilant. The moment the black sphere appeared in Wu Zixiao’s hand, Xie YunChuan snatched it away in an instant. To do this, Xie YunChuan also exposed his ice ability.

Su Qingshan and the others came up. Su Nanle glanced at Luo Shuyou, who was holding the dangerous object that his father said could blow them all to smithereens. He had seen what this thing looked like, but he had never witnessed its power. Su Nanle stammered, “That…that, Brother-in-law, be careful. People who don’t understand this thing can easily set it off. It can blow up all of us.”

“Even zombies with such strong bones can be blown up?” Luo Shuyou’s eyes sparkled with excitement. He was very interested in the fact that this small thing could have such great power.

Xie YunChuan frowned. What the hell was “Brother-in-law”? He should be calling him Brother’s Wife! Shuyou is my wife… He turned his head and glanced at Su Nanle. Seeing his silly look, he decided not to argue with him about the title. He was secretly happy. It’s fine as long as it’s a husband and wife relationship.

Su Nanle was completely unaware of his cousin’s dissatisfaction with him. He enthusiastically began explaining the power of that thing to Luo Shuyou, “Yes, of course! Let me tell you, they did a special experiment when they made this weapon. It can kill level six zombies within five meters, and level five zombies can’t escape within ten meters.”

Luo Shuyou enthusiastically asked, “What about closer, higher-level zombies?”

Su Nanle pouted, “……!” He looked up at Luo Shuyou, and said expressionlessly, “You really know how to grasp the main points.”

“Hmm?”

“The main point is – the guys in the base’s research institute have no ability to capture a level seven zombie king for experiments, so, I don’t know, and no one dares to actively seek death by taking such a small iron ball to blow up a zombie king to see if it can be killed.”

“Oh!” Luo Shuyou’s expression was indifferent, and the light of inquisitiveness in his eyes disappeared.

Su Nanle tried to make up for it, “Don’t ‘oh’ me! Let me tell you, this thing is very precious. It has great destructive power, a wide range, and a fast detonation speed. It’s a treasure that’s hard to come by. Except for my aunt’s Second Research Institute, which can produce such an effect, the other three research institutes can only look on in vain.”

Luo Shuyou asked curiously, “Your aunt made it? Then why does Wu Zixiao have it but you don’t?”

“Who said I don’t have it?” Su Nanle’s voice unconsciously rose a few decibels, as if he was right as long as his voice was loud enough.

Luo Shuyou gave him a complicated look, “Isn’t your performance obvious enough?”

Su Nanle’s aura suddenly weakened, and he touched his face uncertainly and asked, “Am I…am I being obvious?”

Luo Shuyou nodded very fairly, “Yes.” His eyes sparkled, he boasted, and from time to time he stole glances at the iron ball in Luo Shuyou’s hand with a greedy expression. Ask, who would look at something they often have in their hands with such an expression?

Su Nanle said weakly, “Hey, it’s not that I can’t afford it, it’s that I can’t use it.”

Luo Shuyou was confused and asked, “Is there a difference?”

Su Nanle retorted loudly, “Yes, of course there’s a difference, a big difference. Not being able to afford it means you can’t own it, not being able to use it means you can’t use it even if you own it.” At the end, the bitter expression formed a sharp contrast with his initial loud voice.

Luo Shuyou added fuel to the fire, “Then it seems like not being able to use it is even worse.”

“Ugh, don’t mention it, misery is the norm in life!”

“Don’t judge others by yourself, that’s the norm in your life, not others’. Wu Zixiao is your peer, only a few years older than you. He can not only afford it, but also use it.” Luo Shuyou didn’t agree with Su Nanle’s tragic view. Misery was not Luo Shuyou’s norm, his norm was happiness, joy, embracing all the good things!

Su Nanle covered his chest and acted pitiful, “That hits hard, old friend.” Before Luo Shuyou could say anything, he immediately regained his confidence and raised his head, “Being a few years older is still being older, who says I won’t be stronger than him when I reach his age?”

Luo Shuyou kindly reminded him, “Brother, have you forgotten something?”

“What?”

“The end of the world broke out about a year ago. Everyone only awakened their abilities after the end of the world. I see that your level is not low, …it’s just not high, that is to say – the difference between the time you two awakened is at most one or two months, you can’t catch up with him no matter how hard you try.”

Su Nanle stiffened his neck and rolled his eyes, “There’s no need to tell me this truth so bluntly.” Damn it, too much, no social morality, not even giving others a chance to deceive themselves.
