I thought that even if the camp was not as well built as the base, the villa area would at least be similar. After all, when I went to the administrative center before, the nearby commercial streets and shops were dazzling, and the consumption level was no lower than the base. It can only be said that there are rich people and poor people everywhere, and the gap between the rich and the poor is still unimaginable.

But it is indeed inconsistent to call this place a villa area. Not to mention that the villas need to be luxurious and unique, but at least the difference can be seen at a glance compared with other low bungalows. But the buildings around here are basically two-story buildings with a uniform gray-blue color, and there are not even yards. The gates are open facing the road, and both sides appear lonely and deserted.

"Is this place really a villa area? Did we get the wrong place?" Liao Yunyun withdrew her gaze in disbelief and turned to look at Xu Xuesong, who was sitting in the second row with Yan Fan.

Xu Xuesong had expected their reaction, so he could only explain helplessly: "Actually, this is the outskirts of the camp. It's called the villa area because there was a plan to move the administrative area here, but later it had to be shelved due to the impact of the beast tide and the acid rain period. Several projects to build small villas here were temporarily cancelled and converted into ordinary residences. But because this is the farthest place from the back mountain, the safety factor is relatively high, so the housing prices are high. Therefore, not many people can afford to live here. The rich people dislike it because it is far away from the administrative center, so it gradually became deserted."

Chen Yanxi drove the car to a crooked tree in front. The crooked tree had obviously lost its vitality after being washed and corroded by acid rain, and now there was only one trunk.

"The car is too conspicuous, and it's not convenient for us to move in a large group. If we really want to act, we must make a comprehensive plan." Chen Yanxi held the steering wheel with both hands, tapping his slender fingertips. This was a small habit he had when thinking about things. Gu Tongwan, who was sitting in the passenger seat, did not speak. Instead, he waited for him to lean back slightly before saying in a low voice: "You, Yan Fan and I will go in. The others drive the car to the nearby area. There is a rice noodle shop to the east. We can meet there."

"Okay, then you guys be careful. Brother Xu, Tutu and I are waiting for you over there." Liao Yunyun took the initiative to step forward and pull Tutu's leash, so that even if outsiders think Tutu is huge, at least they know that it is a pet with an owner.

Xu Xuesong wanted to say something but stopped himself when he saw that Liao Yunyun seemed to be used to it and didn't show any worry on her face, so he could only hold back his words.

It was not until they disappeared at the intersection ahead that Liao Yunyun smiled and said, "Don't worry too much. They are all fine."

"Chen Yanxi and Yan Fan should not be just D-level psychics, right?" Xu Xuesong couldn't help but think after holding it in for a long time. Although he had had some suspicions before, he thought that they might have concealed their levels in order not to attract too much attention. Therefore, even though he had told Cai Min many of his doubts in this regard in bed at night, Cai Min believed that as long as the other party didn't say anything, they must not ask. Everyone has privacy, and as long as it doesn't cause any trouble, they will pretend not to know about it.

"Brother Xu, it's OK if you know the whole story. I can't tell you anything else. Anyway, you have to believe that they can handle it. And it's most important to find out the current situation of the leader of the [Against the Wind Guild]. Many accidents in the camp during this period seem to be related to this guild. It would be strange if this could be a coincidence. There must be something fishy. Don't blame me for being nosy. Although the current environment and atmosphere in your camp seems to be okay, if the person in charge of the camp becomes the vice president of a guild, we don't know what will happen next."

Although Liao Yunyun didn't say everything, Xu Xuesong understood what she meant.

In fact, in the past two years, Xu Xuesong and Cai Min have traveled to many places for business, including several nearby homeless bases and black market camps. Among the homeless bases they have visited, there is a hierarchy system, and even some camps still have damn slavery. It is said that those in power are some high-level superpowers who suddenly rose after the emergence of superpowers in the apocalypse. These superpowers may have been extremists or criminals before the apocalypse, and some of them even have selfish and narrow-minded thoughts. The camps they established are just to satisfy their own selfish desires. The atmosphere in these camps is generally heavy and depressing. Even when delivering goods, you can always see a lot of ragged or even naked homeless people on the streets. These homeless people even have at least ten kilograms of iron chains under their feet. They can move within a certain range but cannot escape from the camp.

The atmosphere in their camp also began to change in the past few months. A group of people who claimed to be high-level psychics suddenly poured into the camp, with a number of at least one or two hundred people. After these people came in, the wind direction in the camp seemed to have changed. First, the "wars" between camps began to become more frequent, and several times even camps took the initiative to provoke other camps. In particular, the vicious competition between guilds was gradually increasing, and the camp chief was no longer able to cope with it.

Secondly, Chen Ni began to participate in the decision-making power of the camp as the vice president of the [Against the Wind Guild]. After all, the main leaders of large guilds can attend the weekly high-level meetings of the camp.

Now Chen Ni is not only the vice president of a guild. It is said that in several high-level meetings before, Chen Ni joined forces with several other guilds to veto several proposals from the district chief.

It is impossible to say that the district chief did not take any action, but Chen Ni was a very smart man. He did things very carefully and did not leave any clues for others to catch. Even though people knew Chen Ni's ambition, they could not do anything to him for the time being.

"If it's really not possible, you can move to the base. By the way, the underground city of Jiangcheng base will be open after April, and it is expected to absorb 20,000 to 30,000 permanent residents. It will be open for only 20 days. I got this news from an acquaintance. If you are interested, you can ask Wanwan to contact me later." After this period of contact, I feel that Cai Min's family is quite simple, otherwise Liao Yunyun would not easily tell him this inside information. After all, after the opening of the underground city, the base is expected to absorb about 50,000 people in the early stage, but it will be divided into two time periods like last time. When the news is announced on the forum, I am afraid that the area near the base will usher in an unprecedented peak of crowds.

Xu Xuesong remained silent and did not answer Liao Yunyun's words. In fact, Cai Min had discussed this matter with him, but considering the current situation of Cai's father, Cai's mother and Cai Xing, he could only put this idea aside for the time being. However, in the future, the camp will gradually become hierarchical, and even implement a hierarchical system like other camps. Perhaps that will be the time for the Cai family to move out.

Gu Tongwan, Chen Yanxi and Yan Fan have successfully arrived at the villa where Liu Feng, the president of the [Nifeng Guild], is located.

Sure enough, there were people with special abilities guarding outside the villa, and two sentry booths were set up.

The setting of the sentry box is also very subtle, one in front and one in the back, one high and one low, the two places are about 30 meters apart. It is said that the high one is also used as a lookout, about five stories high, and you can glimpse someone leaning against the side with a gun and stretching.

The short sentry box was the closest to the iron gate. There were two people outside. One was squatting on the ground smoking, and the other was talking to the squatting person with one hand on his waist. The two people were not very focused on the work at hand, otherwise they would not have been unaware when Gu Tongwan and others came nearby.

"Before, there was a top-level C-level hunter guarding it, but now it seems that they have relaxed their defenses recently. The hunters guarding it are only D-level." Chen Yanxi's voice was so calm that there was no fluctuation at all, but at the same time he quietly released his mental power.

Gu Tongwan and Yan Fan instantly felt a chill spreading rapidly around them, but in just a blink of an eye the chill disappeared completely.

Yan Fan couldn't help but look at Chen Yanxi with admiration.

In addition to being able to perfectly conceal their own aura, high-level psychics can also cover the aura of others if they have perfect control over their mental power. However, under normal circumstances, some psychic aura will still leak out. But now Yan Fan feels that his psychic power is completely suppressed by this aura, so no psychic will be aware of their presence for the time being.

Of course, this is only a method used against other psychics who use their mental power to detect the psychic aura nearby. This does not mean that they are completely invisible now. They still need to find a way to get rid of the few people in the sentry booth before they can sneak into the villa.

Yan Fan thought for a moment, and said to the two of them, "I can take care of the man up there, but it will take some time."

"How long will it take?" Chen Yanxi asked.

"About three minutes." Yan Fan answered without any hesitation. It was obvious that he was confident in what he was going to do.

Gu Tongwan glanced at the sentry box about thirty or forty meters away from them, and thought that the first thing to be dealt with should be the watchtower. After all, the field of vision at a high place was wider and there were fewer blind spots. It was a suitable place for observation. As long as the people above could be dealt with smoothly, the two people below should not be difficult to deal with.

"Do you need our assistance?" Gu Tongwan asked seriously.

Yan Fan shook his head and showed a determined smile: "No need, I can handle it." After he finished speaking, Yan Fan closed his eyes slightly. When he opened his eyes again, he found that the air flow around him showed faint signs of fluctuation.

Yan Fan just waved his hands up and down, and then heavy snow started to blow in a small area.

Gu Tongwan was a little surprised. When she was about to ask Chen Yanxi beside her, he had already noticed her question, "Use the water vapor in the air flow to condense into frost. When the water vapor drops, it creates an illusion similar to snow. This requires high-intensity supernatural energy to achieve. The Swallow Return can last for about a minute."

"Being able to change the surrounding environment and control it for one minute, although it is a qualitative change reaction, in the eyes of ordinary people it seems like being able to control the weather changes. Yan Fan has actually already reached Class B or may even be close to Class A supernatural powers?" I have known Yan Fan for less than a year, and Yan Fan has gone from Class D at the beginning to Class B or even Class A now. If people in the supernatural world knew about this speed, he would definitely be the object of competition among the major guilds.

"By the way, what was your level of superpowers at the beginning of the apocalypse?" Gu Tongwan was quite curious about Chen Yanxi's experience. After all, it had only been five years since the apocalypse, and Chen Yanxi's level of superpowers was already above S-level. It was not ruled out that he was originally a high-level superpower user.

Chen Yanxi told the truth very frankly: "Grade A. The first time I knew the level of my superpowers was when I used frost and directly froze an entire building. Later, after I had [Cold Frost], I could concentrate my superpowers on the blade." As he spoke, his long fingers clenched the long sword at his waist.

[Leng Shuang] It is said that he got it by chance from an antique dealer in the second year of the apocalypse. The blade of this beautiful Tang sword is pure white without any cracks, and there is only a five or six centimeter long thorn flower engraved on the handle.

I don't know if Chen Yanxi's supernatural powers have gradually influenced this Tang sword. Ever since it was named [Leng Shuang], it has been fighting its way through countless corpse seas and beasts, using blood as bait, and gradually [Leng Shuang] has responded to supernatural powers, and it is even very likely to have become the [Spiritual Weapon] currently rumored in the supernatural world.

The so-called [Spiritual Weapon] refers to a weapon that is born or later contains supernatural energy. It can be a knife, a sword, or even a whip or any other handy weapon.

However, among the millions of weapons, only a few can be developed into [Spiritual Weapons]. Their rarity is no less than that of a dozen S-level mutant beasts.

Gu Tongwan had only seen the so-called [Spiritual Weapons] in some videos posted on the forum before, and most of them were captured from candid angles, and the users were almost all S-level psychics. Because the use of [Spiritual Weapons] consumes a huge amount of superpowers, it requires the superpower energy in the body to reach a certain threshold, otherwise the [Spiritual Weapons] will be destroyed due to insufficient superpowers during a long battle.

"So it only took you a few years to break through to the S-level, or even the SS-level? What I'm curious about is that the most powerful psychic announced by the world right now is a fire-type psychic from Country G. It is said that he can turn a building into a sea of ​​fire in an instant, and can even control all fire sources within a radius of dozens of kilometers." Gu Tongwan was looking at him while saying this. From Chen Yanxi's perspective, he could even see his own face reflected in those cold pupils.

“I don’t deny that talent is important, but luck, strength and hard work are sometimes indispensable. Talent only helps you win at the starting point, but it won’t always put you first.”

He neither denied his luck and strength, but was not overly arrogant either. He had a kind of calm and peaceful demeanor.

The swallows returned very quickly, and heavy snow fell on the high sentry box. The man stretched his neck out of curiosity to see, but he didn't expect an icicle to pierce his neck directly. The man covered his neck and struggled for only half a minute before he died.

When we came here, Xu Xuesong mentioned that all the supernatural people in the villa area were hunters who later joined the [Nifeng Guild]. Cai Xing had investigated the origins of these people before. They were all criminals who were expelled from other camps and had a history of burning, killing and looting. They did a lot of evil even when they were in the camp. Therefore, killing them at this time can only be regarded as the retribution of the evildoers.
