Chapter 172 – Another Way to Use Wisdom Species

There was a lot of blood on the stairs too, but at the same time, Su Lifeng noticed signs of damage in these places. He compared his hand against one dent. If he manifested his Exoskeleton, he might be able to achieve the same effect, but relying on his fist alone was probably impossible. Details like this did not seem especially useful, but they allowed him to estimate his opponent’s strength in advance.

Weiliao walked at the very front, her expression extremely tense. Behind her, Su Lifeng was thinking with some confusion. He had killed so many Xenospecies already, so why did Precognitive Visions of death keep appearing on these people?

And for someone like Wang Chuan, he had not seen how the man died at all. This gave Su Lifeng a faint feeling that something was not quite right. If it really was only an E-class or higher Xenospecies appearing here, then that would be one thing…

The rapid evolution of the Xenospecies had always filled Su Lifeng with a kind of fear. After absorbing Earth’s lifeforms, these outsiders had rapidly gathered and fused together the most useful traits of those creatures, and this was still only the beginning.

When those two Xenospecies attacked earlier, they had clearly cooperated with each other. In terms of intelligence, they were likewise no worse than humans. It was just that after losing the command of the Wisdom Species, their intense desire to evolve made their actions even more frenzied than before.

As he was thinking, another Xenospecies suddenly sprang out. Weiliao was startled, then immediately shouted, “There are three in total!”

The moment she shouted, the gaze of that Xenospecies immediately shifted onto her. Another Xenospecies also walked out from behind them.

“Where’s the other one?” Wang Chuan and the others asked nervously.

Su Lifeng could not help thinking that they were clever. These Xenospecies also knew that after their number had been exposed in advance, hiding one away to increase the psychological pressure on this group would be more effective than having all of them show themselves.

“There are two of you. Which one do you think I should eat?” The Xenospecies at the back had the appearance of a woman in uniform and looked very seductive. She licked her lips as she spoke to the two boys standing at the rear.

But her alluring display failed to produce any reaction in those two. Both of them shuddered all over and did not dare answer.

The Xenospecies in front, the one staring at Weiliao, slowly shifted his gaze onto Su Lifeng. He suddenly asked, “You carry the aura of a Wisdom Species. Was that your doing?”

Su Lifeng froze for a moment. What had he done?

Strictly speaking, he had come here looking for opportunities. Apart from the deaths of Xenospecies, everything else should have nothing to do with him. He did not think the Xenospecies would be stupid enough to ask whether he had killed their own kind. Mutants and Xenospecies were already in a relationship of devouring each other.

But before Su Lifeng could ask any further, the two boys could no longer bear the psychological pressure. One of them suddenly screamed, shoved the companion beside him to the side, and ran toward what looked like a relatively open area.

The moment he moved, the female Xenospecies moved as well. Her mouth immediately split into four pieces like mouthparts as she lunged at the other boy, while the male Xenospecies suddenly whipped a long tail from behind him and stabbed it toward Weiliao.

Su Lifeng had never expected much cooperation from these people to begin with. Although the timing was somewhat wrong, his reaction was still very fast. At this moment, he was closest to the female Xenospecies, but her attack speed was also extremely fast. After biting off the boy’s head in one mouthful, she pounced toward Su Lifeng.

Weiliao let out a startled cry and instinctively ran in Su Lifeng’s direction.

She knew that only Su Lifeng could save her right now, but on the way, Wang Chuan bumped into her.

Wang Chuan was also running in the boy’s direction. When he knocked Weiliao down, he did not even look at her. In fact, he had done it on purpose.

The fallen Weiliao could almost hear the whistling of the tail behind her. A sharp needle emerged from the tail’s tip and was about to pierce into her body. At the same time, her eyes were fixed only on Su Lifeng, who had just hurled the female Xenospecies violently to the ground.

It was this man who had humiliated her and left her in her current situation. Staring at Su Lifeng, Weiliao made no sound at all. Just as Su Lifeng turned his head, the floor beneath his feet suddenly split open. A sharp claw stretched out from below and grabbed his ankle.

So the third Xenospecies had been hiding here…

Pffft! As Weiliao’s body was pierced immediately afterward, and as she stared at him with a venomous gaze, Su Lifeng’s expression hardly changed. Before she could be drained dry, Su Lifeng’s pair of spear-like Bone Wings stabbed downward fiercely, driving straight through the crack and into the body of the Xenospecies below. At the same time, he said to Weiliao, “Actually, I could have made it just now.”

“If your first reaction hadn’t been to drag me down with you.” As Su Lifeng spoke, his Bone Wings suddenly pulled upward. The sharp claw immediately loosened, and fresh blood dripped continuously from his Bone Wings.

After draining Weiliao, whose face was filled with unwillingness, the male Xenospecies immediately retreated without hesitation. The direction he rushed toward was the same direction Wang Chuan and the others had fled. Su Lifeng remembered what the Xenospecies had said, and he also found it strange that he still had not discovered any E-class or higher Xenospecies, so he followed.

Wang Chuan ran wildly ahead, but after running for a while, he came back to his senses through the panic. Why the hell was he running along with it? Did running mean he could escape alive? Following Su Lifeng was the proper choice!

But the moment he looked back, Wang Chuan heard the sound of that Xenospecies chasing after him. His soul nearly flew out of his body. After glancing left and right, he rushed into a shop beside him.

“Go after the one in front, go after him!” Wang Chuan kept running toward the interior of the shop, then hid inside a changing room and prayed without stopping.

The changing room was fairly clean, but it was pitch-black. Hiding here, Wang Chuan’s body was still trembling, yet he felt somewhat excited that he had gotten Weiliao killed.

At this moment, Su Lifeng was still chasing that Xenospecies, his mind turning over what it had said.

“Connected to the Wisdom Species? But there shouldn’t be any Wisdom Species left in Ningnan…” As he thought this, he manifested his Exoskeleton.

In fact, he had absorbed two Wisdom Species in total, and the two Wisdom Species had given him different mutations. One was the Exoskeleton. The other was the Red Thread on his Bone Wings.

But judging by what the Xenospecies meant, could absorbing a Wisdom Species have some other effect besides mutations like these?

The male Xenospecies had already sensed the change in aura behind him. He sped up again, but the distance between him and Su Lifeng was still shrinking rapidly.

“What did you mean when you said that was something I did?” Su Lifeng asked.

The male Xenospecies glanced at Su Lifeng’s hand and snorted coldly. “That disturbance just now wasn’t caused by you?” Seeing that Su Lifeng was still frowning, the male Xenospecies suddenly came to a realization. “It really wasn’t you. But you can try.”
