"Looking at this fish now, it feels like Type C Neo-Humans are a bit overpowered."
Lu Xi'an looked back through the rearview mirror and saw the big fish on the reservoir covered in white mist, disappearing soon after, and couldn't help but remark.
"What's overpowered?"
Yao Wei asked.
"It's like being too strong."
Lu Xi'an explained, "Look at this fish, and then think about that brown bear, being stimulated by the pheromones of Type C Neo-Humans, it suddenly displays strength far beyond its usual.
"Moreover, the pheromones can control not just one animal at a ti, and not just humans...
"Imagine pairing a Type C Neo-Human with a Type A Neo-Human; it's terrifying, I simply dare not imagine."
Suddenly, he thought of Anna from "Overwatch", as if hearing Anna shout: "You are empowered, go!"
"Mm."
Yao Wei nodded and said, "It's strong, but not good. It makes people lose rationality and beco uncontrollable."
In Yao Wei's view, power that one can control is the real strong and good power. She had no problem saying that.
The sky was getting dark again, so Lu Xi'an found a parking area on the side of the mountain road and parked the car.
The pressure above started appearing again, and the two of them got out of the car, chewing jerky, while looking at the sky.
The night sky was filled with stars, seemingly very high and far, yet this very high and far sky made one feel a strong sense of oppression.
Where does this sense of oppression co from? Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei still felt puzzled.
"We'll leave early tomorrow morning, but keep eating jerky. I just feel we can't stay here long."
He said, chewing jerky, to Yao Wei.
"Mm."
Yao Wei also bit into the jerky, nodding in agreent.
The jerky required no preparation, ready to eat directly, and they even planned to pass through the heart of Jianshan City relying solely on jerky for the next few days.
This way they could save as much ti as possible, using their ti on the road.
But the heavens wouldn't cooperate; when they woke up the next day, it unexpectedly got colder.
This ti there was no snow, or maybe a little fell while they were sleeping at night, forming a thin film on the road.
This road covered with an ice film was particularly terrifying; if it snowed heavily normally, being cautious, the car could still manage to move on flat ground, now on this road, a slight oversight would cause it to skid.
Even being cautious didn't help, even if you idled slowly, when stepping on the brake, the car couldn't stop in ti, sliding forward on the ice film.
And the ups and downs of this mountain road needn't be ntioned.
"My jinxed mouth!"
Lu Xi'an couldn't help but ridicule himself.
Yao Wei was a bit puzzled: "But you didn't say anything." She had heard the term 'jinxed mouth' from Lu Xi'an before, understanding what it ant. Thɪs chapter is updated by NoveI-Fire.ɴet
Lu Xi'an said, "I thought it in my mind."
For so reason, Yao Wei suddenly felt like laughing.
But Lu Xi'an quickly adjusted his mood, saying, "Forget it, since the heavens want to keep us, let's just stay here honestly.
"We've stayed in this place before, and for quite so ti. It should be okay."
This ti, he forced himself not to think about the negative aspects, naturally not ntioning them.
"Mm."
Yao Wei responded again. Being reassured by Lu Xi'an, she relaxed as well.
Indeed, under this inexplicable pressure before, they had stayed a long ti, doing many things, like creating a shelter in Xiaogang Village, or finding things to make oil pumps in West Fang Village.
Moreover, those places were still in Ox Head County, where the pressure from the night sky was quite intense.
Now they were far away in Liangcheng County, not even past Jianshan City, still far from Ox Head County, so the pressure they felt was relatively small.
Why, encountering this kind of pressure again, did they feel more worried than before?
Having experienced it before, there's no need for this...
Perhaps it's because this pressure inexplicably gives a sense of danger that could lose control at any mont? Leaving a very deep impression.
Thus, after leaving this pressure, the impression left in mory was sohow intensified, and resistance to this impression grew stronger.
Lu Xi'an took out four more jerky sticks from the car, handing two to Yao Wei, keeping two for himself.
Looking at the thin ice on the ground, his playful spirit suddenly arose, taking two steps forward, with one foot in front and the other behind, letting inertia carry his body sliding on the slick ice surface.
Yao Wei watched Lu Xi'an's actions, feeling a bit inexplicable.
But Lu Xi'an turned back to smile at her, saying, "I used to play gas like this as a kid. Want to try?"
Yao Wei shook her head, finding it neither interesting nor necessary.
But Lu Xi'an smiled and said, "Co on, give it a try." He spoke and already walked over, holding Yao Wei's hand.
He pulled Yao Wei forward, and instinctively, she tried to lift her foot to step.
Lu Xi'an said, "You don't need to walk, just like I did, with one foot in front of the other, or squat down directly."
Yao Wei listened to Lu Xi'an and didn't take that step, allowing Lu Xi'an to pull her forward.
The thin ice underfoot caused her to lose traction with the ground, her body pulled forward by Lu Xi'an, so effortlessly.
Yao Wei didn't find such a ga interesting, but after sliding for a bit, she wanted to experience it again.
So she turned around, waiting for Lu Xi'an to pull her again.
After sliding back to the original spot, Lu Xi'an let go, and Yao Wei instinctively squeezed her hand.
