My Ability Pool is S Chapter 85: None Of My Business

Squeak~

A police motorcycle stopped in front of the empty lot at the Fertilizer Processing Plant. Lu Bai took off his helt and hung it on the rearview mirror.

“The address is definitely here.”

He dismounted, looking around.

This factory area was in an abandoned state.

The barrier arm at the entrance guardhouse was covered in a thick layer of dust, clearly not having been raised for a long ti, making normal use unlikely.

Remote, quiet, and rarely visited by people.

He wasn’t surprised at all that parasitic organisms were using such an out-of-the-way place as a stronghold.

“So what happened?”

Lu Bai muttered to himself as he walked toward the factory.

Along the way, he also saw several corpses; before death, the flesh balls on their necks were still in attacking posture.

It didn’t look like the work of death fighters.

Monsters fighting among themselves?

Realizing he couldn’t earn points, Lu Bai imdiately thought of turning around and leaving.

However,

Forget it.

He conveniently sent Xu Qiang a ssage calling for backup, deciding to go check it out anyway.

Relying on the information from the corpses, he followed along, gradually approaching a large warehouse.

There wasn’t much movent from inside, but judging from the tattered roller shutter door and the several parasitic organisms guarding outside, all the doubts should be answered inside that warehouse.

……

The fierce fight had already ended.

Blood flowed all over the ground, with so of it completely dried into heavy dark brown.

In the vast warehouse, severed limbs and arms were scattered everywhere, but even more were broken flesh strips, like harvested wheat ears strewn across the floor.

The pot-bellied man stood with hands behind his back, gazing at Peng Dan gasping her last breaths at his feet.

“You, you shouldn’t… do this.” Peng Dan had reverted to her normal human appearance, lying on her back on the ground, her gaze fixed on the warehouse ceiling.

“Don’t say things that affect unity.”

The pot-bellied man shook his head: “I am now the Mayor of Jiangyu City. I can continue to advance until I enter the decision-making level at the very center of this nation.”

Peng Dan seed to have recovered a bit, or perhaps it was a last burst of energy; in any case, she spoke much more smoothly: “Have you thought about it? Once you expose yourself, it will be a catastrophe for our tribe.

Since you claim to understand humanity, you should know that humans at this stage haven’t gone all out against us; they’ve only used one finger.”

“Of course I know that. To be precise, humans just blew a breath at us, and it left countless kindred exhausted from running.”

The Mayor of Jiangyu City smiled: “So only by grasping this overbearing power in our own hands does our tribe have a future. Rest assured, I will climb to the top step by step.”

Clang!

Boom!

After the crisp sound of tal collision, so heavy object smashed onto the tattered roller shutter door, creating a piercing roar.

This series of noises ca from the warehouse gate. The nurous parasitic organisms present all turned to look.

On a collapsed steel plate lay a parasitic organism with an exaggeratedly long katana impaled in its chest.

Gripping the hilt was a handso young man exuding an innocent aura—if not for the corpse under his foot…

Ssch~

Lu Bai pulled out Long Fang, flicking up a spray of blood.

He tilted his head slightly and said with a chuckle: “Sorry, did I interrupt you?”

Seeing this, a flash of joy appeared in Peng Dan’s eyes: “Save !”

“A human?”

The mayor’s gaze switched back and forth between Lu Bai and Peng Dan, his tone inscrutable whether surprise or sarcasm: “To think you’re colluding with humans.”

“I told you, we can peacefully coexist with humans, just like him.” Peng Dan said firmly.

The mayor gave a look to his subordinate. The burly parasitic organism beside him imdiately split off a bone blade, aiming at Peng Dan’s neck and slashing down, silencing her completely.

The distance was a bit far; Lu Bai couldn’t provide aid in ti.

Besides, he hadn’t said he had to save Peng Dan.

Watching the splashing blood, he didn’t even blink, joking: “Didn’t expect to see kindred killing each other.”

“You’ve seen sothing embarrassing.”

The mayor said reservedly: “But since you’re here, why not stay?”

At these words, the nurous parasitic organisms present imdiately moved, surrounding Lu Bai in an instant.

However, Lu Bai allowed himself to be encircled without showing the slightest fear, even seeming overly relaxed.

His arms hung naturally, with only his right wrist exerting a bit of force to lift Long Fang, keeping the blade roughly parallel to the ground.

The mayor walked forward unhurriedly: “That uniform—is it the Special Affairs Bureau? If I rember correctly, isn’t the Special Affairs Bureau the departnt responsible for clearing out our kind?”

“What, you want to say that Peng Dan’s group used the Special Affairs Bureau’s power to secretly harm kindred?”

Lu Bai raised an eyebrow and said casually: “Since you’ve wiped out this faction, why fra them? Are you trying to assuage your guilt this way?”

“Assuage guilt?”

The mayor sneered: “Only those who do wrong feel guilt. We aren’t hypocritical creatures like humans.”

Without waiting for Lu Bai’s response, he answered himself: “What is right? What is wrong? What is good, what is evil? It’s just definitions humans apply to others based on whether they benefit from them.”

Lu Bai neither confird nor denied, quietly staying vigilant against the surrounding parasitic organisms to guard against sudden attacks.

“We are a superior race. We don’t impose good, evil, right, or wrong on people or things. Our actions emphasize ability, motive, and gain.”

The mayor spread his arms; rather than explaining to Lu Bai, it was more like a speech to his kindred.

Lu Bai unconsciously smiled and casually refuted: “Most of what you said can be attributed to natural sciences like biological evolution and physical laws.”

“Isn’t that good?”

The mayor raised his voice: “Without emotion, coldly observing and understanding the world’s operations, not the hypocritical human nature from social developnt—we are far superior to you humans.

Moreover, even the individual power that decides survival of the fittest in nature—we hold an absolute advantage.”

Hearing this, many surrounding parasitic organisms shouted excitedly.

Lu Bai sighed faintly.

“I think I get what you an, but I used to be a Taoist priest. When sothing happens, I only have two perspectives: none of my business or none of your business.”

His eyes gradually narrowed.

“Whether you’re superior to humans or not is beside the point. I just want to correct one thing: your individual power doesn’t have the advantage in front of …”

Before he finished speaking, he instantly vanished from the spot.
