I Carry a Game World With Me

Chapter 176: Chapter 162: How Can There Be So Many Ability Users

That’s right, Zheng Lin was an Ability User.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been sent on this mission.

When Lin Gou and his two companions saw him standing on the front of the vehicle, they didn’t panic. Instead, they drew their firearms and waited for the dozen or so people to arrive.

With Captain Zheng, an Ability User, present, all they had to do was provide support by attacking with their guns.

It was only a dozen or so people. They could be dealt with easily.

After all, they had always been this successful in the past.

Besides, with these ten-plus people delivering themselves to their doorstep, they might even be able to use this opportunity to infiltrate Qingfeng Base.

When Lu Feng led his people closer, he was taken aback to see the four of them stopped and waiting for them.

’He’d brought more than ten Ability Users with him, yet these four people weren’t running? They were just waiting for him?’

But then again, they didn’t know he’d brought so many Ability Users with him.

Seeing Lu Feng and his group come to a halt, Zheng Lin frowned. "I’m curious," he asked. "We clearly evaded you. How did you find us? And how did you come straight for us with such accuracy?"

Lu Feng smiled and retorted, "I’m also curious. What business do you have coming after our Qingfeng Base?"

"When an Ability User asks you a question, you should answer first, not ask a question in return. Annoying them will only make things miserable for you." Zheng Lin sneered at Lu Feng. He suddenly raised his hand, and a flicker of flame shot up from his palm, coalescing into a fireball.

"An elemental ability!" Lu Feng couldn’t help but be surprised.

In the game *After the Apocalypse*, Ability Users didn’t just have abilities that boosted basic attributes like strength and speed. There were also other special abilities, like the elemental class: the power to control energies like wind and fire.

Especially as the game was updated, the background lore described an increase in a certain type of energy in the air, which would also increase the probability of elemental Ability Users appearing.

This man’s ability to conjure a fireball was clearly a fire-elemental power.

"So you have some sense after all," Zheng Lin snorted. The next moment, he hurled the fireball at Lu Feng.

Seeing this, Xu Bin charged forward before Lu Feng even had to make a move.

He was already a large man, but after consuming a special Power Crystal Stone, the side effects had made him even fatter.

His massive frame slammed right into Captain Zheng’s fireball.

BANG!~

The fireball and Xu Bin collided, producing an explosive sound. The blast was accompanied by a burst of flame and a powerful shockwave.

The force was considerable.

Xu Bin’s bulky body was thrown backward by the impact, and he slid until he slammed into the hover-truck. He grunted, his expression turning grim.

The sleeve of his shirt had been completely destroyed, burned to a crisp by the flames.

"An Ability User!" Zheng Lin was stunned.

Only an Ability User could have withstood his fireball attack.

He hadn’t expected there to be another Ability User among this group of a dozen or so people. No wonder they had dared to charge right at them.

’Too bad for them,’ Zheng Lin thought. ’They have no idea they’re facing an Ability User, too.’

With that thought, Zheng Lin conjured another fireball. Since the enemy had an Ability User, he had to press his advantage and eliminate him first to be safe.

But before he could throw it, a look of shock spread across his face. Lin Nan had instantly activated his speed ability, charging toward him at an unbelievable pace.

After joining Qingfeng Base and becoming a Speed Ability User, he’d never had the chance to use his power against an enemy who also had abilities.

Now that he was facing one, how could he pass up such a perfect opportunity to test it out?

"Another Ability User?" Zheng Lin was aghast.

That kind of speed was definitely not something an ordinary person could achieve.

He subconsciously hurled the fireball he’d just formed at Lin Nan.

’They have two Ability Users?’

’I have to end this quickly.’

Lin Nan unleashed his speed ability, moving so fast he easily dodged the flying fireball.

Seeing this, however, Zheng Lin clenched his fist.

The next moment, the fireball exploded. A powerful shockwave erupted, slamming into Lin Nan just as he dodged past it, sending him flying and tumbling to the ground.

"Damn it," Lin Nan cursed, feeling a jolt of pain as his body hit the ground. He also felt a little embarrassed.

This wasn’t how he’d pictured it ending.

Clearly, Zheng Lin had mastered his fire-elemental ability.

And his combat instincts were sharp.

Unfortunately for him, he was ultimately outnumbered. Another figure had already closed in on him at an incredible speed—another Speed Ability User—and was swinging a short blade at him.

It was Chen Fei.

Chen Fei was not Lin Nan; he wouldn’t be so foolish as to charge in recklessly. The moment Lin Nan rushed out, Chen Fei had moved to take advantage of the opening, and now was his chance.

Zheng Lin had no time to dodge the descending blade. By the time he reacted, the short blade in Chen Fei’s hand was already pressed against his neck.

The cold steel on his skin made his body go rigid, and he didn’t dare move a muscle.

Chen Fei hadn’t gone for the kill. He knew these four had a reason for monitoring Qingfeng Base, and as an Ability User, this man would certainly know more than the others.

With Zheng Lin held hostage, the expressions of the other three men changed drastically.

Before they could react, Lin Jiao, Chen Tao, and Chen Hao also activated their speed abilities, appearing in front of the three men in a flash.

The three men were dumbfounded. Three more Ability Users.

Before they could even react, they were knocked unconscious by elbow strikes.

Zheng Lin’s eyes went wide as he watched this unfold, cold sweat beading on his forehead.

’He thought that as an Ability User, dealing with this group would be a piece of cake. Who would have guessed that so many of them were Ability Users, too?’
