Lantern Sister is still very capable.

The greenery along the street kept receding into the distance. Liang Wufan drove quickly through one green light after another. Because there were very few people and vehicles on the streets at night, he glanced at the personal terminal on his wrist. Nearly half an hour had passed since they parted ways with Yu An. They should have arrived at the Haishi base, but they were still on the road.

"Watch out, someone's there." He Feiquan sat steadily in the back seat, using the wind to sense enemies in the shadows while warning Liang Wufan, who had just realized something was wrong.

Upon hearing this, Liang Wufan, who was only at the second level, felt somewhat powerless as he looked around to observe what seemed amiss.

No way, what did he, a mere level two, do to deserve this?

I thought I was just here tonight to be a webcam, but I ended up accidentally stumbling into the battlefield of the big shots!

"We've been exposed. You go attack, I'll figure out a way to get the stuff back." A voice came from the shadows, and a figure darted out, heading straight for He Feiquan in the car.

"Major General!" Hard work pays off. Finally, he caught sight of the enemy before they could make a move, and Liang Wufan shouted loudly.

By the time you realize I'm already dead.

He Feiquan was speechless. He kicked the door open and leaped out. It wasn't easy to fight inside the car, so it was much more comfortable to fight outside!

The attacker kicked the car window and smashed it. He saw He Feiquan get out of the car through the other door, then withdrew his leg and stood by the roadside.

Liang Wufan bent over, keeping his head down to avoid being injured by the shards of glass from the car window. After the two left, he drove the car to a safe distance and made a phone call to arrange for the traffic department to cordon off the area to prevent pedestrians from accidentally crossing the road.

"Who are you?" He Feiquan asked coldly.

He sensed that there were two enemies, but only the one in front of him came out to confront him head-on, along with a lurking rat.

The man dressed in black remained silent, as if he couldn't hear He Feiquan's question. A jet of water shot up from the ground, and the man stepped into the water jet and entered the air, level with He Feiquan who was flying in the sky.

He Feiquan tried to sever the water column supporting the enemy with a wind blade, but the water column automatically repaired itself in the next moment, with water surging continuously as if it were alive.

This move was clearly not at level three, and He Feiquan determined that the opponent was a level four water-type.

He was underestimated. He Feiquan's first thought was, "How could a level 5 wind-type be no match for a level 4 water-type?"

Quick fight.

Instantly, a fierce wind arose, and an invisible wind enveloped the area. If anyone could see the flow of elements, they would see that the bluish-white elements symbolizing wind covered the earth, forming an isolated forbidden zone.

Invisible vortexes of wind swirled erratically in this realm of wind. To avoid the tornado, those standing atop the water columns could only maintain their high position by continuously spewing water along their own path.

Water-type attacks against wind-type attacks will be dominated by wind-type attacks, which have the advantage of high altitude. However, water-type attacks are not without their advantages.

"Crash-"

The water column where the man had stood did not disappear, but continued to merge, forming a huge water dragon that swam through the air with its claws outstretched, rushing towards He Feiquan, intending to swallow him whole.

The oppressive feeling of the colossal object suddenly arose. A second before being swallowed up, He Feiquan stopped the wind from supporting him and descended in a straight line to avoid the attack. Like a hummingbird that had stopped falling in mid-air to avoid its predator, he took flight again before falling.

"Roar--"

But what happened next made He Feiquan's eyes sharpen. The water dragon that was supposed to bypass him appeared behind him and enveloped He Feiquan completely in its water-formed body.

The hidden turbulent currents in the water swirled He Feiquan around, as if he had been thrown into a washing machine. The wind shield around He Feiquan formed a protective layer, which could only protect him from the attacks in the water, but could not stop him from being rolled around.

In a moment of haste, a massive wind sword formed from the sky, severing the water dragon's body in one strike and freeing He Feiquan from the wind shield.

Feeling slightly dizzy, He Feiquan shook his head. Just as he was about to focus his attention and search for the enemy's whereabouts to trap and kill him, he discovered that after the water dragon disappeared, the person had also vanished without a trace.

His expression changed, and he raised his hand to touch the medicine placed on his chest.

Empty.

Fell into a trap!

In the distance, a person pinched a glass test tube between their thumb and forefinger, gently shook it twice, and stared at the blue liquid inside with shining eyes.

"So this is the potion that's supposed to enhance superpowers! I wonder if it will help the Doctor's experiments—" He grinned exaggeratedly, his eyes darting to the man beside him who was wrapping his wound with bandages.

"Hey, if I give you that, will you become a level five?"

After bandaging the wounds, the man who had been cut by the wind blades drank a few mouthfuls of water he had conjured to quench his thirst, and then remained silent.

The person who was ignored curled his lip and muttered to himself, "Forget it, why would I tease you, you battle maniac? I'm so bored. I'll go back and play with Huihui."

No sooner had they finished speaking than the two of them vanished in the blink of an eye.

At this moment, Liang Wufan, a lowly henchman with nothing to do, was eating snacks in the car when He Feiquan, who had no expression on his face, arrived.

"Major General, would you like some?" Liang Wufan chewed on a piece of beef jerky and handed it over.

You can't take your anger out on me now that you've eaten beef jerky! Your face is so dark, like you've lost.

No way! We can't really have lost? If we couldn't even beat a level 5 enemy, what level would the enemy be? Level 5? Level 6?!

While observing He Feiquan's expression, Liang Wufan let his thoughts wander.

Although He Feiquan was in a bad mood, he wasn't the type to take his anger out on his subordinates. He was also hungry after working all night, so he took the beef jerky, ate a couple of bites, and then said, "They're not the same group that attacked the base. Their target is the potion given by Fire Butterfly. It's a level four water-type and an unknown level space-type. Sigh, it's impossible to defend against."

"Another space-type?" Liang Wufan asked in surprise. There was one at the base, and now another space-type was attacking them.

He Feiquan also said helplessly, "Rare abilities are often the key to victory in battle. Unfortunately, the space in our country is mostly for storage and transportation. Only a few people can teleport, let alone those combat-type space talents."

Upon hearing this, Liang Wufan paused in his chewing of beef jerky, and chuckled awkwardly, "We Chinese people regard food as the most important thing, and we all love to hoard food!"

"The research institute said that there is a positive correlation between the awakening of superpowers and personality. I heard that what you want most when your superpowers awaken is very likely to be what you awaken," He Feiquan said.

Liang Wufan exclaimed in surprise, "Doesn't that mean it's possible to artificially manipulate the attributes of people with superpowers?"

"The research institute has made this conjecture, but hasn't had time to conduct experiments yet," He Feiquan said meaningfully.

Ah this...

Liang Wufan didn't dare to think too deeply. He swallowed the last bite of jerky, and after He Feiquan gave him an OK sign, he closed the door and drove off in one smooth motion.

If we don't get back to the base soon, Director Wu is going to yell at us!
