Chapter 21 The Cicada Awaits
Wang Ce didn't notice the change in Zhang Luoyan's eyes. Seeing the smile on her lips, he assumed that she was probably alright.
After pulling the stainless steel spears off the mudskippers, several workers who had come out with the team immediately stepped forward to process the fish meat.
"Brother Ping An, I'm just a bit stronger in the hands, nothing special in other aspects."
"You said you also underwent a special evolution, do you possess some kind of superpower?"
Wang Ce's casual inquiry was also an attempt to understand the evolutionary direction of the other survivors.
"Including myself, our factory evolved into twelve. At that time, there were two other factories, and the property manager Zhou Jiakun, who helped us discover a fruit tree."
"We each ate a fruit from the tree and then we evolved. Everyone's physical abilities were greatly improved. Even those who didn't train much before experienced a surge in strength."
"The fruit trees have now been transplanted to the factory, and we don't know when they will bear fruit again."
Guo Ping'an's words made Wang Ce nod slightly. He was also a little surprised that even someone like Zhou Jiakun could become an Evolver.
It was just good luck that I got on the coattails of Fuhuakang.
"After we recovered and learned that these fruits could actually cause people to evolve, we must have felt that those three people had gotten the better deal, so we prepared to go and offer them amnesty."
"It was Mr. Guo who first suggested that the fruit was edible. In order to conduct better research, he joined our factory as a technical consultant."
"That Zhou Jiapeng once boasted that he would integrate the northern industrial park and ran off in high spirits. I wonder how he's doing now."
Wang Ce's lips twitched, and Huang Feipeng behind him couldn't help but say, "You mean that idiot? He died halfway through his business, and the first company to challenge him was our Shenghong. Then he ran into a brick wall."
"There's another one, but I haven't heard anyone say it's evolved."
Zhang Luoyan also turned her gaze over. Knowing yourself and your enemy is the key to victory in every battle. Knowing which other evolved beings are in the park is also a good thing.
Because these are the people who are most likely to advance.
After absorbing ten crystal cores to advance her level, she knew all too well just how terrifying her power would be after that advancement.
"There's another guy named Yang Miao. He led about ten people, and he's a really ruthless guy."
"He also contributed a lot when we were pioneering the hunting route, but now we don't know where he is. We haven't seen him for the past two days."
"I don't really like this person. Although he is indeed very efficient, he is too petty."
"Logically speaking, we discovered the fruit trees, and the animals ate our fruit trees to evolve. We shouldn't be grateful, but at least we should help them out."
"As a result, even when I asked him for a hand, he would ask us for payment. After we worked together the day before yesterday, I didn't want to have any more contact with him."
Guo Ping'an's words caused Wang Ce and the other two to slightly change their expressions. Guo Ping'an noticed this and asked with some doubt, "You know this Yang Miao? Do you have a grudge against him?"
Zhang Luoyan shook her head and said in a calm tone, "It's not that we have a grudge. I just kicked this guy out of Shenghong. He's capable and shrewd, but he doesn't follow the rules. I can't tolerate him."
Guo Ping'an raised an eyebrow, swallowed, and said, "I've always heard that Shenghong produces ruthless people, and it's really true. Manager Zhang, you don't need to be modest. It's not that you can't tolerate him, but with his personality, no one wants to work with him."
"All I know of are the fifteen of us evolved beings. Our physiques have all undergone comprehensive evolution. The only difference is that Elder Guo and I possess special abilities."
"My special ability is that I can run faster than others on my two legs. It's as if my legs have evolved to give me a head start over everyone else."
"Old Guo's brain has evolved. I don't know if he's just kidding me or what, but he said his brain's problem-solving algorithms have become stronger."
Wang Ce nodded. It seemed that only a few people could undergo special evolution, while others only underwent ordinary evolution, and Guo Ping'an's evolution was a partial physical evolution.
Huang Feipeng and Zhang Luoyan, for example, have undergone supernatural ability evolution, while I, if I disregard the golden attribute, belong to the category of physical evolution.
"The three of us are all Evolvers. Like you, I evolved with both hands. I possess greater power than ordinary Evolvers. I call ordinary Evolvers Evolvers, while people like us are called Physical Evolvers."
"Guo Lao's kind of person is a spiritual evolutionist. If there are people who have mastered superpowers, they are superhumans."
Currently, 90% of those with superpowers are in the two factories, so the two factories have the right to name them; this is a kind of subtle infiltration.
Guo Ping'an nodded. He was young, but not stupid; he understood Wang Ce's intentions.
After Wang Ce and Guo Ping'an returned together, they said goodbye in front of the Hummer. As soon as they got in the car, Huang Feipeng couldn't help but say:
"Brother Ce, why didn't you tell them that we are—"
Huang Feipeng was halfway through his sentence when Wang Ce glared at him, and he swallowed his words back.
Because besides the three of them, there were four other workers on the vehicle, and at this stage, everyone needs to be on guard.
"The four of you have been running around with us all day. When you get back, you can tell the other people in the factory what you saw and heard, but you have to be objective and not embellish it."
"Let's go back and grill mudskippers tonight. Maybe if we eat more grilled fish, you'll have a chance to evolve."
Wang Ce still reminded the four workers that, because they had come into contact with evolved beings, the workers below might inevitably have some ulterior motives.
There was no way to hide it, so they simply let things fester. They had already done enough; people in other factories couldn't have food every day without having to go out.
"Don't worry, Brother Ce, we understand."
The four nodded in agreement. After all, they had chatted with the people from Fuhuakang Electronics Factory and knew that Wang Ce and Guo Ping'an had murdered more than fifty people from Xinke Plastics Factory.
This guy is a real killer! Who would dare to mess around in front of him?
As the Hummer passed the factory gate, Wang Ce glanced at the neighboring factory and raised an eyebrow. Huang Feipeng couldn't help but say:
"Holy crap, Ce-ge, look! The boss's wife from Xinke Plastics Factory is hugging Yang Miao!"
Yang Miao walked into the factory with the owner's wife of Xinke Plastics Factory, glancing back as they went. His eyes swept over the Hummer, and he nodded slightly, his expression somewhat complicated.
"I knew Zhao Erde was so stubborn. He dared to come and ambush me without knowing anything. It turns out he's never played Yang Miao before."
"Now that Yang Miao has evolved, we need to find an opportunity to deal with him."
Wang Ce had always thought that he had used Zhao Erde to kill someone, and that he was the one lurking in the shadows. But now it seems that Yang Miao, who took over Xinke Plastics Factory, is the real lurking in the shadows.
"Pfft!"
Wang Ce pulled a crystal core from the mudskipper's head and then said to the worker:
"We've got a piece of wood on the truck. Let's clean this fish; we'll have grilled fish tonight!"
This sentence completely ignited the passion of the production line workers. Even though they weren't lacking in food, no one could truly eat their fill.
No one objected to Zhang Luoyan's decision to give food; everyone knew that at this stage, having anything to eat was already a blessing.
People are dying every day at the neighboring Xinke Plastics Factory; they've seen it all.
