What's wrong with being a little arrogant in the apocalypse just to support my wife?

There were no fewer than ten sixth-rank and three seventh-rank members. All the strange beasts and sea creatures present changed their expressions.

"Damn...who exactly are they?"

Morse paced back and forth. Xian Wenrui thought he was scared, but when he looked up, he found Morse with barely suppressed excitement on his face. This fanatical warmonger was a real freak.

Xian Wenrui often feels that he is out of place because he is too normal.

"I don't know, but they don't seem to communicate with language, but with a power that's similar to a psychic ability."

Upon hearing this, Morse suddenly stopped and pointed to the location of his mental sea.

"When Zhang Wenjing's superpower entered my mind, I felt a special power, but I can only sense it and cannot control it at present."

Lu Yize knew they were talking about mental power, meaning those people were already able to skillfully control their mental power. The concept of mental power only appeared in the tenth year of the apocalypse in his previous life.

In the early stages of this model, these people are still exploring it, while the people in that lab are already proficient in using it and applying it to dialogues.

Lu Yize had never revealed that he could use his mental power, which was a trump card he had left for himself. That's why he was able to deceive Fan Jian's mental power detection right under his nose and do so many things.

Although he didn't want to expose himself, he didn't mind letting others learn more about his mental abilities and make use of them as soon as possible.

Lu Yize's mental energy enveloped Jiang Yue and guided her to use it. Jiang Yue was originally a mental ability user, so she could control her mental energy much more easily than others.

For a moment, Jiang Yue's face went blank. Then, everyone felt the force deep in their minds, like a drop of water, being stimulated and spreading outwards. Their senses were amplified, and everything around them became extremely clear.

"This is...spiritual power?"

Xian Wenrui uncertainly voiced the doubts in everyone's minds, and all their eyes were focused on Jiang Yue.

The one who first released this power that stirred their minds was Jiang Yue, and she was also a psychic.

And as Morse previously mentioned, the existence of this power becomes even more apparent under the guidance of psychic ability users.

They were certain that the reason they could suddenly sense and use this power was because of Jiang Yue. In fact, Jiang Yue herself had only just learned to use mental power, and mental abilities and mental power are not the same.

Jiang Yue, who had just learned to use her mental powers, inexplicably found herself burdened with a scapegoat.

No, it's not exactly the fault of anyone. Anyway, someone is taking advantage of the fact that the zombie only has half a brain and can't figure out the intricacies of the situation.

Just now, Lu Yize used Jiang Yue's mental ability as cover to leave a mental guidance on everyone. With this mental guidance, they can master the use of mental power more quickly.

The strength of one's mental power is determined at birth; some people have strong mental power while others have weak mental power. However, generally speaking, the faster one advances, the stronger one becomes, and the higher one's mental power level will be.

However, there are some special cases. Some people have high mental strength, but because their special ability core is congenitally damaged, their advancement speed is slow.

This does not prevent the opponent from having strong mental power; they can still crush their opponents with their mental strength.

Whether they are zombies or strange sea monsters, none of the people captured by this laboratory have weak mental strength.

The first person to ask this question, Xian Wenrui, although his superpower level was not high, was clearly a special being whose superpower advancement speed was not fast, but whose mental strength was particularly strong.

Therefore, under the influence of his mental power, the world he perceived was the most different, and his feelings were the most obvious.

This is why, despite being neither a psychic nor a brain-enhanced individual, Xian Wenrui possesses an exceptionally keen sensitivity to supernatural abilities.

As Xian Wenrui and the others were getting used to the presence of mental energy, Zhang Wenjing looked at Jiang Yue, then shifted her gaze to Lu Yize. As a fellow mental ability user, she sensed something amiss.

However, she was a smart woman and said nothing, pretending not to know.

Xian Wenrui felt that his five senses had been amplified countless times. After his superpowers were awakened and upgraded, his five senses were much better than before, and his nearsightedness was even cured.

Now it's magnified countless times, you can see clearly how many legs an ant has as it passes by, and you can even detect how many people are standing within a 360-degree radius without turning around.

"You psychic beings usually experience this, right? It's too...too strong."

Zhang Wenjing only learned to use this power at this moment. Although she had just come into contact with it, she keenly realized that the effect of mental power was far more than that.

“Psychic abilities and mental power are not the same concept. Take Jiang Yue and me for example, her ability is more about manipulation, while mine is more about searching and presenting memories. As for mental power... I feel it's more like expanding one's perception within one's own radius.”

"Of course, this power should have more than just that effect. Just like what Xie Hongyang said, those people can probably communicate using mental power, and there should be other effects besides that."

While there is some overlap between psychic abilities and mental power, their focuses are vastly different. Lu Yize, however, remembered one particularly important point.

High-level mental energy cores or high-level mental crystal cores can be absorbed and have the potential to change one's own mental power level.

They actually found a way to break through the mental power that was originally destined to remain unchanged. This is why, after Jiang Yue's fourth-tier mental zombie was exposed in her previous life, those people chased after them like madmen.

After all, who would want to pass up an opportunity to improve their talent? Let alone a zombie that can be killed legitimately, even if it were a so-called fellow ability user, many people would probably try to kill it.

At least in the later stages of the apocalypse in his previous life, Lu Yize had hardly seen any psychic ability users. Even if there was a shortage of psychic ability users, it shouldn't be this severe.

Who knows whether those psychic ability users died at the hands of zombies, in laboratories, or were killed by other human ability users?

Whenever Lu Yize thinks about his past life, his mental state tends to become somewhat out of control.

Now that more people are using mental energy, Lu Yize has also calmed down his restless and tense nerves.

There's no need to expose these things to others. Jiang Yue, who's right there in the open, is already an obvious weakness; we can't expose any more.

In the space carved out of the crevice, they temporarily replenished their supernatural abilities and rested for a while before planning to visit the laboratory on the first floor that Xie Hongyang had mentioned.

Meanwhile, Fan Jian, who was bandaging his wounds, was mocked by his fellow seventh-ranked peers.
