Chapter 1213: Chapter 551: Fanshan Island
This mountain peak doesn’t seem high; the part exposed above the water is estimated to be about a hundred meters tall.
Rather than calling it a peak, it looks more like a small island now.
Perhaps even a very small island.
Clearly, within one and a half months of Liang Yuan entering the Floating Island of the Dark Abyss Mouth, the flood had already risen to the point of submerging most buildings.
This type of low hill has now become even smaller.
Liang Yuan passed by without seeing any tall buildings.
It’s not that there are no tall buildings, but most of them have been submerged underwater.
The Flood World has completely come.
Human modern facilities have completely faded into the distance.
"Bang!"
In the snowy ridge, a sharp sound exploded.
A white flying squirrel fell from the treetop.
Scarlet blood immediately stained the white ground red.
In the woods, a young girl rushed out quickly, grabbing the flying squirrel on the ground.
She was dressed in thick fur, about 1.7 meters tall, with delicate features and lively eyes.
Her black hair was tied in a ponytail, holding a black hard bow.
Oddly, she didn’t have an arrow.
Yet she moved swiftly, as fast as the wind, and came to the flying squirrel, her face showing joy.
"There’s food for the next few days."
Wham!
Suddenly, several people emerged from the woods, one flashing, disappearing into the ground instantaneously, dragging the flying squirrel underground before vanishing.
The young girl’s face changed drastically, shouting angrily: "Stop, that’s my prey!"
The men in the woods immediately laughed mockingly.
"Nie Xin, we’ve been watching this flying squirrel for days, haha, who snatched whose prey, that’s worth discussing."
"Nonsense, Di, I’ve been watching this flying squirrel these days, it’s impossible others were watching, give it back!"
"Ridiculous! You weren’t aware we were eyeing it too, and now you’re saying this? Think we won’t dare touch you on Fanshan Island?"
The man named Di laughed coldly, while the other men stepped forward, showing threats.
The girl called Nie Xin, with a sullen face, angrily said: "You dare to act? Aren’t you afraid of Officer Li?"
On mentioning Officer Li, Di Hu and others’ expressions slightly changed.
Di Hu suddenly sneered: "Everyone gathered on Fanshan Island to escape disaster; we listened to Officer Li back then because he had a gun."
"What time is it now? Everyone has awakened Superpowers; what’s the use of a gun?"
"Stop using him to intimidate me; I, Di Hu, am not easily scared. Report to him if you want, let’s see if I’m afraid."
A nearby bald man coldly laughed: "Nie Xin, better pray you always stay on Fanshan Island and don’t go out."
The others immediately laughed aloud, with a hint of malice in their expressions.
Their looks towards Nie Xin carried ill intentions.
Nie Xin felt a chill in her heart.
"This can’t continue; Fanshan Island is not safe anymore, these people are mad. Officer Li probably won’t be able to control the situation here for long."
Nie Xin thought to herself, after the great flood, Officer Li brought people to the mountain because he had a gun.
Later, people gradually awakened Superpowers, and some questioned Officer Li’s ways.
But they dared not act out due to Officer Li’s gun.
Officer Li also awakened a Superpower, but it’s the most common Strength Superpower; despite having a gun, some Elemental Ability Users began to disdain him.
Because they gradually gained the ability to deal with firearms.
If not for Officer Li being the longstanding leader of Fanshan Island, someone might have rebelled by now.
"I need to find a way, quickly get my parents out of here, luckily outside is frozen, we can leave."
"Staying longer only spells trouble sooner or later."
Nie Xin watched helplessly as the group stole her prey, angry but unable to retaliate.
The opposition was numerous and were Superpower Users.
It’s not her first time having prey snatched.
With winter arriving, ice formed on the water’s surface, heavy snow, reducing chances to get food underwater.
Many had to hunt to survive in the forest.
However, lacking food, the Mutant Beasts in the forest became vicious.
The whole winter brought scarcity.
Under these circumstances, safety on Fanshan Island naturally declined.
"Hey girl, is this Fanshan?"
A voice suddenly came from behind, startling Nie Xin.
She instinctively turned, raising her hand, sending a gust of wind to cut behind her.
However, the person behind didn’t evade, and the Wind Blade exploded in front of him, as if hitting a Telekinesis Wall.
Liang Yuan smiled, saying: "A Wind Attribute Superpower User, quite rare indeed."
"Who are you?" Nie Xin exclaimed, retreating three steps from Liang Yuan.
Although she acted hastily, Wind Blade Slash was always her strongest skill.
However, her skill couldn’t even brush the man’s clothing edge!
She immediately realized the person is a terrifying expert!
Liang Yuan chuckled, saying: "Don’t worry, I’m just a passerby lost, hoping you could tell me where this place is."
Nie Xin incredulously frowned: "Lost? Where did you come from? It’s snowy, how did you get here?"
She didn’t quite believe the man, mainly because the island had patrols; ordinary people couldn’t ascend.
Liang Yuan smiled: "I’m from Linjiang City, called Liang Yuan; you may call me Mr. Liang."
"As for how I came, I floated here."
His body slowly levitated, standing in mid-air.
Nie Xin’s pupils shrunk instantly, flying through air!
This person is a Spirit Ability User!
Nie Xin immediately showed a trace of reverence, asking: "Is this Telekinesis flight?"
"Haha, yes."
"Amazing, my name is Nie Xin."
"Oh, it’s Miss Nie."
"No, no, don’t call me Miss, just call me by my name." Nie Xin quickly said.
Liang Yuan couldn’t help but chuckle, saying, "Alright, Nie Xin girl, do you know where this is?"
"Fanshan, this is Fanshan, oh, before the Great Flood, it used to be a mountain, now it’s an island, we call it Fanshan Island."
"Did you really come from Linjiang City? Linjiang City is at least over a hundred kilometers away from here."
Liang Yuan raised his eyebrow: "Over a hundred kilometers, so this is Baoshan City?"
"Yes, it’s Baoshan City."
Upon hearing this, Liang Yuan couldn’t help but laugh.
Baoshan City and Linjiang City are separated by Linjiang, but geographically, Baoshan City is indeed downstream of Linjiang City.
Fortunately, after drifting for half a month, the [Dark Abyss Mouth] was finally very close to Linjiang City.
"What a coincidence."
Liang Yuan laughed, wasn’t Xu Haoyang just the leader of the survivor camp in Baoshan City?
Liang Yuan immediately asked, "Are there many survivor gather spots in Baoshan City?"
Nie Xin slightly shook her head: "Baoshan City has a much lower altitude than Linjiang City, plus it’s downstream of Linjiang City, when the Great Flood arrived, it was the first to be flooded by upstream water."
"Now, except for a few mountain tops, there is basically no place to stand."
Liang Yuan asked, "Where is the largest survivor camp in Baoshan City now?"
"The largest survivor camp, I heard someone say, should be on Yang Baoshan."
"Yang Baoshan?"
"You don’t know? Yang Baoshan is the largest peak in Baoshan City, and it’s also where the city’s name comes from."
"I heard that Yang Baoshan was a great general in ancient times who defended the city with all his might, sacrificing himself and ultimately saving all the city’s people."
"The locals buried him on the highest mountain and built temples and ancestral halls to offer incense to him. That mountain then became Yang Baoshan."
"Yang Baoshan is considered a very famous scenic spot here; you don’t know it?"
Liang Yuan slightly shook his head; he barely visited Linjiang City’s landmarks, let alone those in downstream cities.
"Looks like Xu Haoyang is indeed the expedition leader of Yang Baoshan shelter."
Liang Yuan just slightly sensed the location of the parasite species left in Xu Haoyang’s body, and he could roughly detect its position.
However, he did not intend to look for the other party; the most urgent thing was to return to Yangshan first.
Boom!
Liang Yuan was about to ask something when suddenly, from a distant mountain forest, there came a violent explosion sound.
Liang Yuan and Nie Xin both instinctively looked up.
Only to see thick smoke billowing in the distance, accompanied by wretched cries.
Nie Xin’s face changed dramatically: "What’s going on!"
Liang Yuan was also a bit surprised, only to see Nie Xin’s figure flash, a whirlwind gathered under her feet, rapidly carrying her towards the place of thick smoke.
Watching this scene, Liang Yuan thought for a moment, and his figure flickered, following suit.
The two moved quickly; soon they passed through the forest and arrived at a village gathering place.
There, it looked like it had collapsed, and a large amount of flames were burning.
In the billowing smoke, many women and children were screaming in terror.
A group of men wearing fur coats, wielding various superpower weapons, charged inside, directly carrying away beautiful women upon sight.
Children were also grabbed single-handedly, causing laughter.
And there was another group of people, fiercely fighting the intruding men.
The scene was about hundreds of people, a chaotic mess.
The most eye-catching were those men in the air.
These few men were hovering in the air, standing in mid-air, scanning around with smiles.
"You beasts! You bunch of beasts!"
In the forest, a middle-aged man in thick fur charged out.
He was covered in snow, holding a pistol aiming at the sky, and directly fired!
Bang bang bang!
Several bullets pierced through the air; the three men above coldly laughed upon seeing this.
One of them said, "I’ll handle it."
He pressed his hand into the void, and immediately, the void condensed into a Telekinesis Wall.
Those bullets instantly entered the Telekinesis Wall, automatically stagnating in the void.
"A bunch of superpower users without genetic species daring to fight us? What a joke."
"Hahaha, capture them all. Kill the men, bring the women back and share them with the brothers!"
The bandits below burst into cheers, acting more mercilessly and ruthlessly.
The screams around never ceased for a moment.
Nie Xin rushed into the crowd, seeing a collapsed wooden house, and her eyes turned red.
"Dad, Mom!"
In the collapsed house, Brother Liang’s old body lay on the ground, lifeless.
Nie Xin angrily raised her head, looking around: "You beasts, you beasts, I’m going to kill you."
She waved her hands, a few wind blades slashed out rapidly.
Thud thud thud!
A superpower user among them dodged the wind blades, turned to see Nie Xin, and his eyes lit up.
"Such a beautiful chick! Hahaha, she’s mine."
He leaped, his speed was lightning fast, he reached Nie Xin in an instant.
Nie Xin’s face changed, wanting to fight back; however, the other’s speed was too fast for her to withstand.
In a flash, the man grabbed her neck and lifted her up.
Nie Xin’s face flushed red, glaring angrily at the man.
The man chuckled, raising his hand to knock Nie Xin unconscious.
At this moment, a figure appeared behind him.
Bam!
Liang Yuan casually pointed with a finger, and the man’s head exploded in an instant.
This scene immediately attracted a lot of attention, causing many nearby to turn their heads to look.
