Wild Beast Running Around (Chapter 140)

Hearing that it was the Esper Squad, Ye Sheng couldn't help but gasp in shock. She never expected to encounter them here!

Although she hadn't interacted with Esper Squad 1 before, those who could join the Esper Squads were all incredibly powerful individuals... especially the Squad leader!

They must be even more sharp and perceptive!

It was truly nerve-wracking...

Since Gu Luoyu had accepted a mission from the task hall to guard this place, she couldn't just leave without reason. Ye Sheng's heart felt like it was filled with dozens of rabbits hopping around, yet she remained rooted to the spot.

She couldn't help but pray silently, hoping that these Esper Squad mbers would co and go quickly, without lingering!!!

Every ti she went out, sothing seed to happen... If this continued, Ye Sheng felt she might develop a stress response and never want to leave the house again.

---

"That person wearing the eyepatch is Han Lingyue, the leader of Squad 1. As an Esper, she has survived for a long ti and ranks within the top ten in the base's Esper rankings... Although there's no detailed ranking, she's very strong and could probably make it into the top five."

Seeing Ye Sheng too scared to even breathe, Gu Luoyu found it amusing and couldn't help but smile slightly.

At the sa ti, she began explaining.

Those who could make it into the top ten esper rankings were all formidable individuals, with no room for underhanded tactics. Han Lingyue's age, however, was quite mysterious!

When Gu Luoyu first joined the Esper Squad, Han Lingyue had already been in the Squad for over twenty years.

Ti seed to be especially kind to Espers, as they rarely showed signs of aging.

The stronger the Esper, the more they seed to have eaten so kind of fruit that kept them eternally youthful... For example, soone like Han Lingyue, who was actually quite old, looked no more than twenty years old, full of youthful vigor.

Although it was highly deceptive, her strength was undeniable. Even Gu Luoyu wasn't confident she could defeat her.

At least, not now... Although her psychic abilities had improved, there was still a significant gap.

Despite Gu Luoyu's natural talent, she was still too young.

Even if she were to grow rapidly, she still couldn't compare.

However!!! Thinking of this, Gu Luoyu glanced at the nervous Ye Sheng. Now that she had a cheat accelerator, the gap in ti wasn't so important anymore.

From now on, she would improve at an accelerated pace, aiming to stand at the very top of the mountain as soon as possible.

"Esper Squad 1 was the first Squad to be ford. Although over the years, so mbers have died, others have been injured, and the Squad has been replenished with fresh blood, the Squad's internal rules have been passed down."

Gu Luoyu knew a lot.

She usually didn't say much, but when she did, it was always shocking!

Ye Sheng, like a curious hedgehog in a lon field, was initially nervous about encountering the Esper Squad, but now her attention was completely captured by Gu Luoyu's words. Her black eyes sparkled as she looked over.

Her face clearly said, "Hurry up and tell , I can't wait to hear the story, don't keep in suspense!"

Seeing this, Gu Luoyu chuckled, then lightly flicked Ye Sheng's forehead before continuing as requested: "For example, Squad 1 usually lives in the wilderness and only returns to the safe zone to replenish supplies. They drift around outside for long periods, sotis even ignoring missions issued by the base, focusing solely on hunting polluted creatures."

Esper Squad 1 was also a group of lunatics. Gu Luoyu picked and chose, sharing so of the less terrifying and bloody details.

Enough to satisfy Ye Sheng's curiosity.

In fact, Gu Luoyu's initial goal had been to join Esper Squad 1.

But due to various unpleasant interferences, the plan failed, much to Han Lingyue's regret at the ti. Later, despite the base higher-ups' displeasure, Han Lingyue extended an invitation to Gu Luoyu.

She could join Squad 1 at any ti, as the base couldn't control them.

Unfortunately...

Even though Han Lingyue said that, it didn't erase the fact that they were essentially the base's dogs. After seeing through this, Gu Luoyu lost interest in switching Squads.

Fortunately, she had now regained her freedom.

"Ah? Then why are they here?"

"Probably because the base officials drafted them! They ca back to replenish supplies and got caught. The base asked them to stay and complete a mission before heading back to the wilderness."

Gu Luoyu shrugged, offering a very plausible guess.

In fact, her guess was spot on. Squad 1 had been tasked with escorting those who had successfully undergone the transformation to the research institute...

Originally, the base officials hadn't planned for this, but due to interference and threats from other organizations, they had no choice.

A single misstep could result in all the new ability users being wiped out.

The losses would be significant!

The rcenaries patrolling and guarding were no match, so they had to send Espers. Squad 1, having just returned from the wilderness, happened to be available, so they were put to use.

Han Lingyue led part of the Squad here, and the previously absent leader returned.

The round-faced leader bead, bowing and scraping to the Espers, a stark contrast to his haughty deanor when dealing with the punk guys earlier. It was clear he treated people differently.

"Leader Han, you've worked hard. I've prepared..."

Before the station leader could finish, Han Lingyue raised a hand to stop him. Although she wore a faint smile, it carried an eerie chill that made people afraid to look at her for too long.

The station leader didn't dare to continue, sweat dripping from his forehead as he cautiously shut his mouth, afraid of angering the Espers standing before him!

Although the base officials had previously hired other Espers to guard the area, they were just scattered individuals. How could they compare to the Esper Squad?

"Only these people?"

Han Lingyue was efficient, not one to beat around the bush or engage in bureaucratic talk. Once the new ability users from the outer city stations were delivered to the research institute, her mission would be complete.

After that, she would quickly lead her Squad out of the base, avoiding being assigned trivial tasks.

If it weren't for the need to have the base officials reimburse expenses and use so of the research institute's new weapons, Han Lingyue wouldn't have returned to the base at all, sparing herself the hassle of dealing with miscellaneous matters.

It had been over eight months since her last return to the base. This ti, she heard the news of Erensu's disappearance, which left her in a foul mood.

A promising candidate she had her eye on had been lost.

And it was due to a conspiracy, not a battle.

If she had known the officials were so unreliable, she would have risked punishnt to bring Gu Luoyu into the Squad back then.

Now, the promising seedling was gone, and what remained were just diocre talents... Yet the base treated them like treasures. It was truly blind.

As for the Espers, they were barely passable.

Expecting them to deal with increasingly powerful contaminated creatures?

Forget it.

As soone who had long road the depths of the wilderness, Han Lingyue was even more perceptive than Gu Luoyu. She clearly saw that the polluted creatures were rapidly evolving, and a super "earthquake" was imminent.

She only hoped it would co a bit slower.

At least, give them so buffer ti...

Han Lingyue frowned as she looked at the assembled new ability users. Their diocre appearances were truly painful to look at, so she decided to let her Squad handle them.

But as her gaze shifted to the side, her uncovered purple eye blinked in surprise.

Huh?

Isn't that the missing Erensu!
