Chapter 36

“This… the other party won’t notice me, right?”

Lying quietly in the corner of the observation pavilion, Jiang Yi didn’t dare to move at all…

During the day, Elder Zhao had chatted with him. The smile on his face was very kind and harmless.

However, at this moment, when Jiang Yi saw that smile again, he felt as if he was being targeted by a devil coupled with the strange scene over there.

However, Jiang Yi didn’t panic too much.

If the other party discovered him, with his current strength, he definitely wouldn’t be able to escape.

Don’t forget, there were still more than a dozen D-class martial artists over there!

And if the other party didn’t discover him, he only needed to continue observing.

After that, Jiang Yi temporarily gave up on observing and hid his body behind the pillar.

On the other side, Elder Zhao smiled and glanced over, but he was still muttering in his heart.

Just now, he vaguely felt that someone was staring at him. He originally wanted to alert the enemy and make them take the initiative to appear.

However, his deterrence did not work.

He shook his head indiscernibly. Elder Zhao felt that he was too suspicious.

After all, what he was doing now was a big matter!

With that thought, Elder Zhao bent down and touched the backs of the martial artists on the ground tenderly.

It was as if he was doting on some cats and dogs.

However, Jiang Yi was even more horrified.

One had to know that those were not real pets, but living D-class martial artists!

There were more than a dozen of them!

Qingcheng was only a small city. Even the person in charge of Skynet, Chen Mingxin, was only a B-class.

Moreover, the managers of Skynet were all directly appointed by the higher-ups of the human realm. Strictly speaking, Chen Mingxin was not actually a local. In this way, the strongest person in Qingcheng was at Li Jing’s level, which was also a D-class.

Of course, there might still be some C-class martial artists who had not shown up. In any case, Jiang Yi had never seen them before.

When Elder Zhao did not pay attention to his side for the time being, Jiang Yi continued to focus his attention and observe the situation on the other side.

However, just as he focused his attention, Elder Zhao suddenly turned his head!

“What’s going on?”

Elder Zhao became suspicious!

He was sure that someone nearby was watching him!

However, the night was dark, and Jiang Yi didn’t make any movements, so he couldn’t make a specific judgment for the time being.

When that feeling gradually disappeared, Elder Zhao lowered his head and looked at those martial artists again.

At this time, those things on the ground had been eaten up by them. Elder Zhao knocked the crutches in his hand with satisfaction, as if he was waiting for something.

Behind the observation pavilion, Jiang Yi didn’t dare to breathe loudly. He could only complain crazily in his heart.

“D*mn! This old guy’s strength is absolutely terrifying. I’m afraid he can sense something. Otherwise, it’s impossible for the other party to sense it as soon as I concentrated!”

After the previous two battles, Jiang Yi had also become abnormally calm.

From Elder Zhao’s actions, it could be seen that the other party could easily sense something.

As for the fact that he hadn’t moved up until now, Jiang Yi could deduce that the other party’s senses weren’t clear, and it was just a vague feeling.

Even so, it was still very terrifying!

Jiang Yi didn’t know what kind of strength could reach such an ability. During the previous spaceship incident, Chen Mingxin, a B-class martial artist, had only attacked head-on and hadn’t displayed a similar ability.

After calming down, Jiang Yi did not give up and continued to look over there.

This time he did not dare to openly lean his body out, so he could only use the corner of his eyes to sneak a few glances.

However, just as he took a glance, he was shocked by the scene in front of him!

He saw that the faces of the dozen or so D-class fighters beside Elder Zhao were gradually turning pale. Even through the hazy night, that sickly skin color was extremely glaring.

Under the dim moonlight, those people obediently laid on the ground, their bodies trembling at high speed. Their pale faces coupled with this action made them look like evil spirits that had crawled out from hell!

Immediately after, the muscles on these warriors’ bodies began to rapidly expand!

Their faces gradually became malevolent. Their bodies suddenly began to mutate. Sharp bone spikes, thick limbs, deformed bodies…

“This… genetic mutation!”

In the observation pavilion, Jiang Yi almost couldn’t hold it in!

Those martial artists were clearly undergoing a mutation. The scene was exactly the same as Li Yaoguang’s two days ago!

And this kind of change was definitely because of the things Elder Zhao had given them!

“No wonder this old thing asked me in the afternoon if I wanted to become stronger. Now, it seems that the so-called becoming stronger is to swallow those d*mn things and become this old guy’s puppet!”

Jiang Yi felt a chill in his heart. At the same time, he couldn’t help but guess the other party’s identity.

Where exactly did this person come from? How could he gather so many experts?

D-class warriors weren’t weaklings. In the entire Qingcheng, the only D-class warriors that Jiang Yi knew of were the principal, Wang Wenqing, Li Jing, and the other two team leaders from Skynet, as well as the principals of the various junior colleges.

At most, there would be a few hidden experts among the common people. At best, the number of D-class warriors in Qingcheng could be counted on two hands.

But now, there were more than ten D-class warriors gathered around Elder Zhao alone!

Moreover, Jiang Yi had seen Li Yaoguang mutate. He was only an E-class warrior, but after mutating, he was able to reach the D-class level. Then, how strong would these D-class warriors be after mutating?

Not to mention B-class, C-class was certain!

The more Jiang Yi thought about it, the more alarmed he became. Such a force, the entire Qingcheng would probably be unable to resist!

Just as Jiang Yi was feeling apprehensive, the martial artists on the opposite side had already completed their mutations. Elder Zhao seemed to be satisfied as he nodded his head and left with those mutated martial artists.

Before he left, Elder Zhao once again glanced in Jiang Yi’s direction, as if he wanted to confirm if there was anyone around.

When Jiang Yi saw them leave, he originally wanted to leave immediately, but in the end, he coincidentally noticed Elder Zhao’s glance!

Instantly, Jiang Yi’s heart skipped a beat.

“Could this old b*stard be pretending to leave and waiting for me to make a move, then he’ll immediately come back?”

As he thought about it, Jiang Yi became more cautious.

The other party had tried to probe this place several times, so it was highly likely that he didn’t really leave, but waited for Jiang Yi to appear before killing him!

Thus, Jiang Yi continued to lie low. It wasn’t a big mistake to be careful. He didn’t want to take his life as a joke.

As expected, ten minutes later, Elder Zhao returned to his original spot again. Only this time, he didn’t bring his mutated martial artists.

After circling the spot, Elder Zhao muttered, “Could it be that my senses are wrong? Is there really no one here?”

Saying that, Elder Zhao turned around and left.

Seeing this, Jiang Yi exhaled deeply.

“F*ck! This old bastard really wants to set me up!”

However, he still didn’t dare to act rashly. Since the other party would test him once, there could be a second time and a third time.

Therefore, Jiang Yi simply waited on the spot until it was almost dawn. Seeing that Elder Zhao and those monsters didn’t appear again, he finally relaxed.

At this time, Jiang Yi couldn’t hold it in any longer.

A night of intense hibernation had exhausted his body and spirit greatly.

After confirming that there was no danger in the surroundings, Jiang Yi quickly took out his communication device and sent a message to Li Jing!

“Captain, come quickly! I have a martial artist who is at least B-class here. He has that kind of mutated gene in his hand, and he infected more than a dozen D-class martial artists in one go!”
