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

These words made Old Zhang and Chu Tian's hearts tighten.

Although Lu Yize had used up a lot of his superpowers on the starship, he wasn't so exhausted that he collapsed. He clearly had more important things to do now.

Old Zhang was worried about Chu Tian, ​​so he shamelessly followed along. Lu Yize glanced at him but didn't pay much attention. Even after entering the laboratory, Chu Tian was still tense all over.

Lu Yize didn't like to waste words, so he simply tossed Chu Tian an unknown stone. Upon closer inspection, it seemed to be the outer layer of that meteorite from before.

"Take it, you'll need it."

Neither Chu Tian nor Elder Zhang understood what this was, but Elder Zhang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Lu Yize had no intention of harming Chu Tian. Then, thinking that they were already here, they might as well resolve the matter.

So after hesitating for a few seconds, he spoke up, "Leader, it's like this, after thinking it over, I feel that Xiaotian is still too young and might not be suitable to go to the insect planet with you, so as not to cause trouble for the team..."

"Because of dual-elemental abilities?" Lu Yize directly exposed what they were trying to cover up, watching with great interest the shock on the faces of the master and disciple.

Startled, Old Zhang raised his voice and retorted, "You know?!"

Jiang Yue, who was sitting in a chair with her chin resting on the back, glanced at Chu Tian and then asked in confusion, "Isn't it obvious?"

"You know that too?!" Old Zhang exclaimed again, making a big fuss.

Jiang Yue didn't understand why they were so excited, and nodded, "I know, that's why his ability has grown so fast, that's why Lu Yize used his ability as a cover, otherwise anyone with a higher ability level than him would have seen through it long ago."

"And the stone that Lu Yize gave him can affect other people's ability tests. Even if the ability level of other ability users is much higher than his, they will not notice anything unusual. So it is not a big problem for him to go to the ability competition together."

The Superpower Competition is a kind of training, and Lu Yize not only plans to bring Chu Tian, ​​but also any talented individuals from the base who are over ten years old.

As for the little niece of the Ren family, she is too young. Lu Yize does not have the patience to take care of a baby, and it would be troublesome to be distracted by protecting her. So it is better for her to stay at the base.

Zheng Lin, Chen Si, and Chang Jiamu are all training hard recently because their superpower levels are not particularly outstanding, hoping to secure a spot in the competition.

However, Lu Yize had already planned ahead. Even if they didn't join the team, he would still bring them along and give them a chance to grow.

Zheng Lin and Chu Tian, ​​who became one of the strongest in the apocalypse in the later part of their previous life, are still only teenagers. As long as they can be trained well, Lu Yize wants to hand over the responsibilities on his shoulders to them as soon as possible.

Chu Tian and Elder Zhang were clearly shocked by Lu Yize's words. Chu Tian had a vague idea of ​​what was going on, but he couldn't believe it. In this apocalypse, the thing you dare not gamble on the most is human nature.

He dared to tell Elder Zhang because he could solve it himself, but if someone like Lu Yize, whose superpower level was far higher than his, knew about this and became greedy, he really didn't know how he would die.

Chu Tian gripped the stone in his hand, looking at Lu Yize, whose eyes remained indifferent. He wondered when his disguise had become so good; it turned out that someone had been handling the problem behind him all along.

"Thank you..." Chu Tian bowed his head and thanked him.

Lu Yize didn't react to this. He had only called him here to give him that stone. The stone wasn't very big, only about the size of a fingernail, but it was enough to block out supernatural abilities.

He knew about this because he found out by chance in his previous life. Chu Tian also had dual-elemental abilities in his previous life, but his luck was much worse than in this life. He was being hunted down, and someone even wanted to dig out his two ability cores.

However, I heard that he later killed all those who were chasing him and even found fragments of the Black Crystal Meteorite, which could prevent his dual-elemental abilities from being exposed.

Since he had received a favor from this person in his past life, Lu Yize naturally wanted to repay it. That's why he went to the trouble of obtaining this meteorite fragment and extracting the relevant substances, which allowed him to develop his unusual abilities.

Chu Tian initially put on the tiny stone, no bigger than a fingernail, with a somewhat distrustful attitude, but the moment he actually put it on, he could clearly feel as if there was a barrier around him.

Those who felt it even more clearly were Elder Zhang and Lu Yize, who could clearly sense that Chu Tian's supernatural abilities had returned to calm, and there was nothing unusual about him.

Old Zhang was first surprised, then happy, "It's alright, it's alright! It's really alright, good, good, good, good, good that you can't tell, good that you can't tell."

Old Zhang pulled Chu Tian back and forth to look at it, and only after confirming that the concealing effect was better than his big pill did he breathe a sigh of relief.

Lu Yize looked at Chu Tian, ​​who was still standing there in a daze, and said, "You don't need to suppress your abilities anymore. Go back and focus on advancing your cultivation level."

Chu Tian only came to his senses after hearing Lu Yize's words. He wasn't brainless; on the contrary, he was quite intelligent even before the apocalypse. He immediately thanked Lu Yize, who used his superpower to stop him from kneeling down.

Where did you learn this bad habit? The Qing Dynasty has been gone for so many years, why are you kneeling?

"Improve your superpowers as soon as possible, and learn medical skills from your teacher properly. The base will need your help a lot in the future." Lu Yize didn't like lecturing, which was too much trouble, and he sent the person away after only a few words.

Even after waiting for a while, the master and apprentice were still in a daze. After a long silence, Chu Tian suddenly burst out laughing.

Chu Tian is a thoughtful and calculating child. It was rare for Old Zhang to see him laugh out loud. He knew that Chu Tian had let go of his last bit of concern. He reached out and patted Chu Tian's shoulder, saying, "The leader is a good person. You can focus on improving your abilities from now on. Once you become stronger, you won't have to hide it like this anymore."

Chu Tian nodded. He would become stronger, and then he could protect all those who had ever been kind to him. He would also use his special abilities to integrate into medical skills and do something practical for the base.

Having resolved Chu Tian's matter, Lu Yize wrote down a list of personnel to be taken along, excluding combat personnel: Chu Tian, ​​Sheng Xue, Xian Wenrui, and Zhang Wenjing.

There were also some other people. Thinking about it, the number of people would probably be no less than fifty. He remembered what the little weekly leader had said and suddenly felt that it wouldn't be a bad thing to just board his starship.

He allowed those people into his space without revealing his true strength, and then he traveled to the insect planet aboard their starship.

This way, they can save a lot on fuel. There's no other way; everything is just starting out, and they need superpowers everywhere. They're very poor.

However, this starship still needs further research. It may not be used, but it must be present. If he can ultimately save this large amount of superpowers, he can offer the other party some benefits in exchange.
