Chapter 374: Chapter 174 They Can Stand on Their Own Now_3 "Haha, even though Ding Yan said it was an accident, with the mutant cat startling the big-headed monster, I don’t believe it!" "How can there be so many coincidences in this world?" Liang Yuan started talking about their experience upstairs, and how he uncovered Qin Jing’s lies and broke the other party’s conspiracy. Zhao Kai listened with amazement all over his face. "That woman... what a vicious scheme. If it weren’t for you, Brother Liang, being cautious enough, we all might have been tricked to death." Liang Yuan patted her shoulder, sighing, "Your performance also surprised me." "Now, you all have grown. Even without me here, you few can stand on your own and protect everyone." Liang Yuan was genuinely gratified. Back at building 76, he had to do everything himself—killing Liu Erlong, killing Wang Ze, killing Deng Hu—it was all led by him. Today’s battle, with two battlefields, marked the first time he didn’t have to manage Zhao Kai and the others. Zhao Kai and the others won a fight independently without his help for the first time! This battle was definitely not evenly matched; Zhao Kai and the others were clearly at a disadvantage. Yet, in such circumstances, they managed to turn the tables. This was enough to show their growth and progress. He then went to check on the situation with Yang Shenmin. Yang Shenmin could use his superpower, indicating good recovery. He glanced at Yue Feng on the ground, who had lost too much blood and died from shock. Liang Yuan knew how great a crisis he had just experienced. He said, "Dr. Yang, thank you for your hard work." Yang Shenmin gave a bitter smile, "It’s also my carelessness. I was clearly so cautious with these people, who knew that Yu Xinyi could secrete toxins, and Wang Fang could expand the toxin range." Liang Yuan also said, "You can’t blame yourselves. Now that more people are mutating, with all kinds of mutant abilities, it’s hard to guard against every possibility." "Not to mention you, even if I were here, if caught off guard, I’d likely fall into the trap too." Yang Shenmin sighed, then suddenly said, "Do you think Wang Weidong’s phasing superpower can defend against their poison?" Liang Yuan was taken aback; he hadn’t thought about this. He recalled the situation with Wang Weidong’s phasing superpower and couldn’t help but shake his head, "I’m afraid it can’t. According to your description, this toxin spreads through the air, and it’s hard to prevent without knowing it." "If ambushed, Wang Weidong would find it difficult to detect, unless he doesn’t breathe." "Then why did they still lose? Why were they forced downstairs?" Yang Shenmin furrowed his brows. Liang Yuan thought for a moment and said, "If Wang Weidong stayed with ordinary people, the ordinary people’s poisoning rate would certainly be faster than Wang Weidong’s. Wang Weidong would undoubtedly find out first." "As long as Wang Weidong can still use his superpower to phase himself, with Qin Jing’s team’s various abilities, probably no one could stop him." Yang Shenmin nodded, feeling Liang Yuan made sense. For instance, in their group, the ordinary people immediately fell into a coma, but they could still stay awake, and Song Wen could even use her superpower to resist. "This incident serves as a reminder for us not to underestimate any superpower user." "Their superpowers are bizarre and unpredictable, hard to guard against." After Liang Yuan finished speaking, he increasingly felt the importance of improving his all attributes. Actually, if he were in Yang Shenmin’s group, he might not have been poisoned. Because his physical attribute was too high, and high physical attributes bring not only high endurance, high defense, and high recovery, but also high poison resistance. Physical attribute may seem inconspicuous, but it affects many aspects and is the cornerstone among several major attributes. With his current constitution, in terms of recovery power, he might not match Song Wen’s superpower’s inherent recovery. But in terms of poison resistance and defense, Song Wen couldn’t measure up to him. Liang Yuan chatted with Yang Shenmin for a few more moments before looking at Elder Lin, asking, "How’s Daoist Lin doing?" Yang Shenmin glanced at Elder Lin, a look of frustration flashing in his eyes, "He’s good at playing dead. Yue Feng and the others didn’t take him seriously, attacking me first." Liang Yuan looked at Elder Lin, who had already sat up, shaking his head, "His ability, Golden Light Technique, really has no other use? Just to scare people?" Yang Shenmin nodded, "Basically, that’s all it does. It was pure luck that he managed to scare Deng Hu back then." "Then there’s no high expectation for him. Pay attention to the three women around him. If I’m not mistaken, these women used to belong to Deng Hu." "Deng Hu died at our hands. Who knows what these women are thinking." Hearing this, Yang Shenmin looked at the three women beside Elder Lin, his expression tightening, and asked in a low voice, "Do you suspect these women have ill intentions?" Liang Yuan shook his head, "They’re not to be underestimated. Deng Hu died, and they immediately cozied up to Elder Lin." "That shouldn’t be. They were forcefully taken by Deng Hu back then. We saved them. Wouldn’t they be grateful? How could they resent us for killing Deng Hu?" "Don’t they hate Deng Hu?" Yang Shenmin couldn’t help asking. Liang Yuan’s expression deepened, "It’s hard to see through people’s hearts. Maybe they were pressured by Deng Hu initially, but later they might have enjoyed being in a superior position." "Killing Deng Hu inadvertently plunged them back into the mire from another perspective." "What they truly think, no one knows." As Liang Yuan spoke, Zheng Guoqiang’s figure flashed through his mind. He didn’t pay attention to that old man at the time. Who knew the old guy would resent him? Not only did he secretly awaken a mutated ability, but he also gathered some old enemies he had forgotten, secretly plotting against him. That time was probably the only oversight he had after the great flood. So this time, he especially reminded Yang Shenmin. After hearing Liang Yuan’s words, though Yang Shenmin found it hard to believe, he still kept it in mind. He hadn’t paid much attention to those three women usually. Among them, Liang Minru seemed to be quite well-known among the residents. Lately, she had been mingling around those in building 76 intentionally or unintentionally. As they conversed, there was a clatter from the window. Ding Yan jumped in from outside the window.
