Doomsday: Humanity shrinks 100 times

Chapter 211 Ending and New Beginning

There are still many Xinghuo psychics at the scene, but in Lu Yuning's opinion, this fight is almost over.

It's mainly due to the opponent's ability, it's difficult to cause substantial damage to them.

Whether it is the ground armored forces, the air forces flying in the sky, or this mutated mantis, none of them can be fought against by Starfire's ability users.

Although this mantis Xu Qi is still difficult to control, it is enough for him to come out and shake up the situation now.

The only variable now is the symbiote, but both sides knew from the beginning that its ability was ineffective against the people of Weiguang.

However, there is a problem. It is still difficult to completely destroy the spark, as the opponent can simply go underground.

From the sudden assassination of two key psychics to the appearance of this mutated mantis, the Spark camp has completely lost its morale.

Although there are still many abilities that have not been demonstrated, it is meaningless. The rest will either go underground or be slowly besieged and defeated by the enemy.

I thought we were the strongest force in the park, but now it seems that reality is a bit cruel.

Weiguang's development has steadily surpassed them.

This is actually foreseeable, as Spark's development depends on the inherent capabilities of the Symbiote Tree.

In the early stages, they developed the fastest in base construction and equipment manufacturing, and they also had a great advantage in the number of psychics.

However, as time went by, this advantage gradually disappeared and even became a burden.

There are actually two important nodes in the middle. One is that Han Yingying was rescued by Lu Yuning.

In the early stages of development, the president of Xinghuo had already discovered the disadvantages of their development model.

Based on information from the outside world, he believed that they should transition to other development directions as soon as possible before the advantages brought by the symbiont were exhausted.

So they have been recruiting survivors, especially construction talents.

Han Yingying was also discovered at this time, but unexpectedly, she was rescued by Lu Yuning, and several high-intensity psychics were lost.

Although he really wanted to get her back, problems suddenly arose with the symbiote at this time. President Starfire had discovered that the mutant tree spirit's consciousness was fighting with him for control of the body.

In the end, Han Yingying's case came to nothing.

This is also the second key point. As the two sides continue to fight for consciousness, the development of the entire Spark organization has actually been stagnant.

Although the abilities of each psychic have improved somewhat, their overall strength has lagged behind.

Although Spark still maintains its advantage in small-scale fights, in collective battles like this one, Weird Light is already a crushing force.

With the appearance of the mutated mantis, the morale of all the Starfire members has dropped to the lowest point, and the symbiote was unwilling to give up and finally used its own superpowers.

Suddenly, everyone on Xinghuo's side was pulled into the illusion. This was the greatest ability it had demonstrated.

This all-out move still scared Lu Yuning. He didn't expect that the opponent's ability could pull everyone into the illusion. It seemed that its ability had improved recently.

Lu Yuning had experienced this kind of illusion attack several times, so she was somewhat familiar with his routine. As long as she didn't have too much emotional fluctuation in her heart, it would be fine.

However, other people obviously don't know about this ability, and this illusion has several layers. When you think you have escaped from the illusion, you are actually still in another illusion.

"Everyone, don't be nervous, stay where you are and don't move."

At this moment, Xu Qi's voice sounded in everyone's mind at the same time.

Although the symbiote's abilities were somewhat unexpected, everyone was actually prepared for his illusionary attacks.

Thanks to President Xinghuo's efforts last time, Xu Qi has finally become immune to this kind of illusion attack and can detect it.

Lu Yuning finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Xu Qi's voice. This proved that President Xinghuo had not lied to her before, and Xu Qi was indeed the nemesis of this symbiote.

The illusion in front of Lu Yuning gradually dissipated.

At this moment, a person with special abilities was suddenly thrown out from the crowd opposite by Wu Dongxi.

The man quickly drew a curve in the air, and his target was Xu Qi who was not far from the mantis.

Obviously, the other party also knew the importance of Xu Qi, and the illusion attack just now was probably just to temporarily trap the others.

And this attack is the real purpose.

Lu Yuning reacted and quickly ran towards Xu Qi, but the other party was also prepared.

The flying mutant from before flew towards Lu Yuning quickly.

This person also knew a little about Lu Yuning, and would not approach him easily. He would only suddenly bump into him when Lu Yuning was about to squat down and prepare to launch himself towards Xu Qi.

The purpose is obvious, which is to delay Lu Yuning.

The person thrown out in the air by Wu Dongxi quickly flew in front of Xu Qi, and suddenly a black light appeared on his body.

Before this man fell, two more people were thrown out from the Spark crowd, this time towards the ground armored vehicles.

As three figures flew out, the entire Xinghuo team was divided into two parts and quickly ran in two directions.

The two people who flew towards the armored vehicle arrived first and landed first. Then one of them reached out and pressed on the armored vehicle.

Then only a few screams were heard from the armored vehicle.

"Be careful, there's electricity!"

This person's ability seems to be able to emit electric shocks, but the power is not very strong, otherwise the people in the armored vehicle would probably be seriously injured before they could react.

This attack was obviously intended to make people afraid to make any further movements. As long as he continued to deliver electric shocks, the aluminum armored vehicle would become a cage and the people inside would be completely trapped.

On the other side, the psychic flying towards Xu Qi was about to land.

The only thing that was not threatened was the hot air balloon floating high in the sky, because it was too high and it was difficult to throw people over.

Things seemed to be taking a turn for the worse.

At this moment, the mutated mantis finally moved. It swayed its body and quickly appeared in front of the psychic, accurately blocking his way.

Then he swung his arm and slashed directly at him.

The psychic's face was pale. He only had time to release his superpowers before he was hit.

However, his ability seemed to hit the mantis, and its forelimbs that had been chopped out quickly shriveled up at a speed visible to the naked eye.

It seems that this person's ability is the ability to oxidize organic matter, which is somewhat similar to the ability of the newly awakened people in the branch.

Lu Yuning was shocked. They had spent a lot of effort to tame this mantis. How could it be killed by this man?

A large area of the mantis's forelimbs shriveled up, but fortunately it finally stopped.

It seems that the opponent's ability is still very strong. Anyone who is hit by this blow will basically die.

In the end, he underestimated Xinghuo's psychic and almost suffered a loss.

Fortunately, this mantis is strong enough. Although it is not easy to command it, it seems to know how to protect Xu Qi.

After the battle with Fuxing just now, plus the two psychics that Xia Fei and Lu Yuning just dealt with, there are only a dozen or so psychics left in Xinghuo, and defeat is basically inevitable.

The goal now is to minimize casualties.

The other side attacked in two directions at the same time. The psychic who attacked Xu Qi died, but the armored vehicle had some effect.

But just as they were about to continue besieging the armored vehicle, a huge creature suddenly descended from the sky.

Faced with this mutated spider that was covered in red, the people of Xinghuo finally showed despair. They really didn't expect that Lu Yunnan and the others had so many abilities.

The mutated spiders that became the insects' food grew extremely fast. In just ten days, they had grown larger than them and were extremely ferocious.

It was fully capable of engaging in combat. Unlike the mantis, this mutant spider was easy to command and was actually more practical than the mantis used to shock the scene. After the mutant spider landed, it lifted its abdomen and quickly shot out silk, completely enveloping the two psychics who had just approached the armored vehicle.

"puff"

In addition to the mutant who could discharge electricity, another person made a strange sound after being attacked by a spider.

Then a light yellow smoke rose from around him.
"What the hell does it smell like!"

"It stinks"

"vomit"

At this moment, the armored vehicle was in chaos, and a strong smell of rotten eggs came in from outside.

They were trapped in the armored vehicle and dared not run out. The biological weapons caused tons of damage to them.

Lu Yuning understood that this person's ability seemed to be to release irritating gas, that is, fart.

He felt a little sympathy for the person in the armored vehicle, but fortunately that person had been controlled.

The remaining psychics of Starfire were about to take action, but when they saw the appearance of the mutated spider, they immediately shrank back.

"You have no chance, give up"

Lu Yuning said in a deep voice.

He didn't look at Starfire and the others, but at the symbiotic plant behind them.

It seemed that most of the remaining psychics had been assimilated by him. Even if this group of people really wanted to surrender, there was probably nothing they could do.

So in the end, it is still the symbiote that must be defeated.

However, they didn't have any good way to destroy it completely.

The tree itself is quite strong and has strong self-healing ability, so the best way is to let it give up on its own.

Otherwise, if it drags on until the end, Xinghuo and his group of superpowers may have to be killed, which is what Lu Yuning least wants to see.

They want to establish a foothold in this park in the future, and this group of people with special abilities will be of great use to them.

The outsider had to be killed because his abilities were too strong to be controlled.

However, every kill of the remaining people would be a heavy loss for them.

"It told us to retreat, or else the remaining mutants would commit suicide."

At this moment, Xu Qi behind him said to Lu Yuning.

Lu Yuning was stunned. It was obvious that the other party already knew what he was thinking and wanted to threaten him with the lives of all the superpower users in Xinghuo.

"This guy"

"What should we do?" Xu Qi asked.

Lu Yuning thought for a moment, then his eyes flickered, and he slowly shook his head and said, "No, we've finally reached this point. If we can't do anything else, we can only sacrifice these people. If we don't completely destroy the Spark, we will never be able to gain a foothold in this park."

The symbiote seemed to have heard his words, and suddenly a roar of anger was heard.

A large number of the remaining psychics in Xinghuo suddenly turned into zombies, standing there blankly with dilated pupils.

Including Vision, about three-quarters of the population is controlled by the symbiote.

This group of people seemed to have known their fate for a long time. They had hardly spoken to each other since the confrontation began. I had to feel sad for them.

Xu Qi felt a little bit reluctant. She frowned and wanted to persuade Lu Yuning, but she was no longer a newbie who had just encountered the end of the world. In the end, she kept silent.

This emotion seemed to be transmitted to her bound partner through supernatural powers. The mantis actually showed a rare look of flattery. Its terrifying body lowered and it rubbed its head towards Xu Qi in a somewhat scary way.

This incident scared Lu Yuning quite a bit.

At this moment, several controlled psychics in the Spark camp seemed to wake up.

Xu Qi's ability seemed to be suddenly forcibly enhanced at this moment, causing interference to the symbiote.

This symbiont is actually related to Xu Qi. It is the final mark left by President Xinghuo after he tried his best. It's just that Xu Qi's ability was insufficient before and he couldn't produce any practical effect.

Xu Qi's ability is somewhat related to her own emotions, so her desperation and unwillingness to let the Starfire people die still had an impact on the symbiote.

“It seemed to waver.”

Xu Qi said in surprise.

Things finally seemed to be turning for the best.

Beads of sweat kept falling from Xu Qi's head. She seemed to be trying her best to communicate and comfort the other party, but looking at her shaky appearance, it seemed that her ability was not enough.

Lu Yuning reacted quickly and ran towards the armored vehicle, then called out Liu Rui who was still in dire straits.

Xu Qi seemed unable to hold on any longer and needed Liu Rui's help for half of his life.

...

With Liu Rui's help, Xu Qi quickly recovered.

The people from Xinghuo had just regained consciousness, but they were tactful enough not to move.

In fact, they had already lost the desire to fight, but they were unable to surrender due to the influence of the symbiote.

Xu Qi communicated for a long time and finally there was some movement.

She opened her eyes and looked at Lu Yuning, a smile that was hard to conceal appearing on her face.

"Success?"

Xu Qi nodded: "But..."

"Ok?"

"It's still somewhat hostile towards you," Xu Qi explained.

Lu Yuning was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. It seemed that most of the companions Xu Qi had won over had some opinions about him.

Only the chipmunk has a good relationship with him, while the bee and the mantis are both indifferent to him.

Now there is this symbiote, but it doesn’t matter as long as Xu Qi can control them.

He now roughly understood why his split consciousness had forced him to change the timeline in order to save Xu Qi.

It now seems that her ability plays a crucial role in her future development.

With the symbiote's compromise, the fight in the park basically came to an end. No one in Weiguang was even injured in this battle. Except for Xia Fei who was almost killed instantly, no one else was even threatened.

Even the air force didn't play much of a role.

It can be said to be a crushing victory. This battle represents the complete rise of the glimmering forces.

However, after dealing with the park forces, they still have a lot of things to do. At present, their technological means have basically reached their limit.

If the park wants to continue to develop, it must go out. They need more materials and more talents.

But before that, he had to integrate the current psychics. Except for those familiar psychics, Lu Yuning currently knew nothing about the abilities of other people, including the talents from Fuxing.

Lu Yuning thought about it and thought that when there are more people, they may need to be divided into several groups. One is the logistics group for production purposes, the other is the reconnaissance team for going out for exploration, and the core management, etc. It seems that Xinghuo’s previous grouping can be used as a reference.

However, they are short of manpower and the team is too small.
