I’m A Wasteland Giant Chapter 33

Chapter 33: This is the Counterattack of Earthlings!

Thirteen police officers, including Su Qi, swallowed a crystal each. After a full 10 minutes, 10 of them had long opened their eyes and waited helplessly. They already learned from Chu Zixuan that their talent wasn’t great, so they didn’t awaken any supernatural powers.

On the other side, the remaining three police officers still had their eyes tightly closed. One was Su Qi, who was cultivating her supernatural power. The others were He Yongjun and an ordinary police officer named Zhang Peng.

At that moment, the crowd looked at them with envy, knowing that these people were more talented and they would become supernatural beings after they woke up!

Chu Zixuan had already discovered the anomaly at that moment.

He found that an area that couldn’t be peered into had sprung up in all of these people’s minds.

All the supernatural beings, including him, had such an area in the center of their brains. As for the unawakened beings, he could see their brains very clearly as long as he scanned them…

However, there was one exception!

Chu Zixuan glanced at Du Gang and found that the latter’s brain was, surprisingly, like that of an ordinary human’s. Chu Zixuan’s spiritual power could easily see through him.

But the problem was that Du Gang was indeed a supernatural being!

Could it be that he has upgraded, so I can’t see through him?

At that moment, this was the only reason Chu Zixuan could find.

He made a mental note and waited to check on Du Gang again after his own upgrade.

Before he pondered any further, He Yongjun and Zhang Peng woke up.

“How is it? What supernatural powers have you guys awakened?”

As soon as they opened their eyes, the other police officers hurried over to them.

The faces of He Yongjun and Zhang Peng were overflowing with joy.

He Yongjun raised his hand and three sharp claws resembling Wolverine[1]’s shot out of his hand.

“Holy hell! I’ve become Wolverine!” He exclaimed in exhilaration.

It could be seen that he was very satisfied with this supernatural power.

On the other hand, Zhang Peng put his hands together and a huge metal shield appeared in place of his hands.

“I’m able to turn my hands into a shield like this, as well as one shield in one hand!”

He said, quickly splitting the shield into two smaller ones.

“Zhang Peng, you’re gonna be a meat shield from now on!”

“Hahaha!!

The crowd went up to congratulate and tease him.

On the other side, Du Gang and others bade farewell after seeing that they had awakened supernatural powers.

“Are you really not staying with us?”

He Yongjun was still hoping that Chu Zixuan would stay. After awakening his own supernatural power, he realized how powerful Chu Zixuan’s was.

Not only was he able to scan things and places with his spiritual power, but he could also use psychokinesis to manipulate objects, which was very practical and powerful.

After getting a unanimous shake of the head from Du Gang and the others, He Yongjun stopped persuading him and could only give his blessing. “All right. I wish you guys a safe trip. If you can’t stay over in Luo An City, you can come back to Nan Yuan City. We will definitely establish a survivor base here!”

“Sure, we will. Also, we are students of Experimental High School and there are still a dozen students in the boys’ dormitory. One of the girls has also awakened her supernatural power!”

Chu Zixuan, under Du Gang’s gesture, told the situation about their schoolmates.

After all, there wasn’t a big feud between them, so there was no need to leave them to their demise. They wouldn’t see each other in the future, anyway.

“Don’t worry, we’ll make time to go over there today!”

With that, the two groups finally parted ways in front of the police station.

At that moment, there were finally some people on the streets.

Of course, there weren’t many of them. These people had either separated from their loved ones and were rushing to meet them, or looking for food after starving for one night.

After seeing He Yongjun and other people in police uniforms, these people ran toward them in excitement.

Seeing this, Du Gang and others quietly bypassed the crowd and left the place.

After arriving at a place where there was no one else, the group discussed again.

Chu Zixuan continued to play his role as a wise man and analyzed: “There is a total distance of more than 500 kilometers from Nan Yuan City to Luo An City. There are three routes for us to go by: plane, train, or highway!”

“We can rule out traveling by plane. You should have seen the situation overhead yesterday. All the planes are gone, so there’s no hope for us even if we get to the airport.”

“The news has also reported that the highway is entirely choked. After last night, it is estimated to have crumbled!”

“So, our only choice is to head to the train station and see if we can board a train to Luo An City!”

The crowd nodded and looked at Du Gang. After all, they needed him to make the decision.

After giving some thought for a while, Du Gang spoke: “You have a point. How about this? Let’s head to the nearest train station first to check out the situation, before deciding what to do next!”

Nan Yuan Military Zone.

Command Center.

“Our troops witnessed some bizarre phenomenons during their patrol…”

“Some plants and animals seem to have started to change. Some saw a dog that was more than a meter tall and two meters long. Others found normal trees starting to grow like crazy, becoming very tall…

“In addition, the Ministry of Scientific Research has sent out the latest information regarding those insects: their flesh can be eaten and will induce a strengthening effect on the body…

“Also according to them, ordinary people may also awaken if they consume more insect meat; it’s just that the effect isn’t as good as swallowing the red crystals…”

Wang Dezheng nodded and asked with puckered brows: “Have the troops that went to Nan Yuan City returned? How is the situation there?”

“Not yet…”

“We can’t wait anymore. Let’s set off right away to Nan Yuan City!”

“Won’t this be too hasty of us?”

The advisor of the brain trust was hoping that the army would play it safe and put together a sufficient war regiment of supernatural beings first, before heading to the city.

“It’s fine. When the time comes, we’ll station our main forces outside of Nan Yuan City. If worse comes to worst, we’ll send supernatural beings into the city to rescue civilians…”

He knew that the brain trust didn’t want to go over so early because they were worried that no one dared to use weapons of mass destruction, and that would be equivalent to tying their own hands.

However, there also didn’t seem to be many problems with his command. In the first place, the Nan Yuan Military Zone was located in the deep mountains and wasn’t too far from Nan Yuan City, with just a distance of more than 100 kilometers.

Arctic Circle, Chinese military command center.

Lu Zhou walked in with a gloomy expression and an experiment report in his hand.

“What’s wrong?” Yao Zhenguo’s heart sank again when he saw that depressing expression.

“Through research, we found that this dark matter can drive biological evolution…

“The bodies of those insects, which are precisely made up of dark matter or similar material, are also able to enhance their physical strength and even cause the awakening of supernatural powers once consumed…”

“Isn’t that great news?!” Yao Zhenguo said with some doubts.

Lu Zhou shook his head and sighed. “If humans consume them, most of the energy will be absorbed by our brain or ‘soul’. On the contrary, animals are instinctive, which means that their physical bodies will be strengthened and enhanced after consumption!”

Saying that, he released a set of pictures showing some tigers, lions, dogs, and cats.

“The bodies of these animals have all been enhanced to varying degrees, and a northeastern tiger that is ten meters tall and nearly thirty meters long has now been discovered…”

“Great! This is the counterattack of earthlings! The end of those insects is here…” Yao Zhenguo clenched his fists cheerfully.

However, the next sentence from Lu Zhou left him dumbfounded.

“Ahem. In the eyes of predators, humans are the same as insects. We are all food to them!”

“…”

Yao Zhenguo’s smile froze.

“In the daytime, those insects in the wild can’t defend themselves, so they are basically free meat for all. This means that the carnivores on Earth basically have no shortage of food, so the speed of their growth and evolution will be insanely fast!”

This time, Yao Zhenguo’s smile completely disappeared.

“This is really bad news…”

“Who are we fooling…”

“Yes, I know!”
