Chapter 188: Backfire
"President Xiong, is this the place you found that is suspected to be the Iron Blood Base?"
Looking at the desolate scene in front of him, Su Ming couldn't help but frowned.
After a brief discussion, because of the sudden joining of Su Ming, a Level 5 awakener, and Song Que's strength was fully exposed, the original method of determining the general person in charge through competition was aborted.
However, because the goal of this mission had been found, Xiong Tian did not object, but readily proposed another method.
That is, everyone was divided into two groups, led by Xiong Tian and Hong Tianba, and began to explore outside.
Whoever finds the Iron Blood Base first will be the general person in charge of launching the attack later.
According to common sense, Song Que and Xiong Tian should be in one group, and Su Ming and Hong Tianba should be in one group, but Song Que, who had been pretending to be a handsome man with ancient style, suddenly proposed.
"Based on the principle of fairness and justice, in order to prevent the other party from cheating, I think we should cross-group the four people to prevent the other party from cheating."
Su Ming, who had no idea about the position of the general person in charge, naturally would not refuse.
Seeing that the other three had agreed, Hong Tianba, although a little unwilling in his heart, could only nod.
In this way, all the awakened people in the Red Star Base were divided into two groups, and Su Ming followed Xiong Tian all the way to start the journey of searching for the Iron Blood Base in the wild.
On the way of searching, Xiong Tian divided his team into 10 groups again.
And now the place where Su Ming was standing was exactly the suspicious place found by one of the groups.
On the desolate land, a puddle the size of a house seemed so eye-catching.
Standing on the edge of the puddle, Su Ming looked down, but could only see endless blue.
After looking for a long time, Su Ming felt as if he was standing on the beach.
It was just that the puddle in front of him seemed to be very deep, but with a hole the size of a house, Su Ming was very suspicious of how the Iron Blood Base was hiding underneath.
"President Xiong, instead of looking for these small puddles specifically, we might as well go to some places with large lakes first."
Along the way, Su Ming always felt that the guy named Xiong Tian beside him seemed to be a bit perfunctory.
This is the third puddle that Su Ming has come to. According to general conditions, even if he doesn't go to some reservoirs to look for the Iron Blood Base, he ignores those big lakes and focuses on the small puddle. Su Ming really doubts whether this guy named Xiong Tian has ulterior motives.
"Hehe, don't worry, brother Su. As long as my two brothers who dived in come back, we will know whether the following is the hiding place of the Iron Blood Base."
Thinking of what Song Que had told him, Xiong Tian looked at the puddle in front of him and said to Su Ming casually.
"I saw that Mr. Su was very concerned about Ms. Cui Wenjing before. I wonder if the two of you have that kind of relationship?"
"Huh?"
Su Ming, who was also staring at the puddle, was immediately shocked after hearing Xiong Tian's sudden question, and then laughed and said.
"Who would be interested in a girl like that unless they are blind!"
"Brother Su has a very high standard. Ms. Cui Wenjing is very good in every aspect."
First, he praised Cui Wenjing's conditions in all aspects, and then Xiong Tian changed the subject.
"And Cui Wenjing's ability to turn her arm into a long sword is very special. I wonder if Brother Su has seen it before?"
Su Ming, who was originally careless, suddenly became alert after hearing Xiong Tian's words.
With a turn of his eyes, Su Ming did not answer Xiong Tian directly.
"Isn't it just turning my arm into a weapon? To be honest, my ability is also very special. If it weren't for the fact that we are friends, I would never tell you!"
After hearing Su Ming's words, Xiong Tian, who was originally just trying it out, suddenly stopped beating his heart, and then the speed of beating became faster.
"Could that person be him?"
"This is my ability. Please appreciate it, Brother Xiong!"
Rows of weapon phantoms spun around Su Ming's figure, leaving behind afterimages.
"Her ability can only turn her arms into long swords, but my ability can summon different weapons. Isn't it more powerful?"
Because Xiong Tian brought the topic to Cui Wenjing several times in a row, Su Ming actually had a little idea of Xiong Tian's previous proposal to divide the team into two teams to find the Iron Blood Base.
In order to test whether Xiong Tian was looking for the Iron Blood Base or something related to Cui Wenjing, Su Ming deliberately used his first awakened ability.
If Xiong Tian was concerned about the aspects of the evolution virus, then when he saw Su Ming's current ability, he would definitely behave differently.
And if Xiong Tian did not show any abnormal behavior, it would only prove that Su Ming was worrying too much.
For some reason, as he came into contact with more and more people, Su Ming always had the idea that others wanted to harm him.
Seeing the weapon phantoms around Su Ming, Xiong Tian's expression froze immediately.
Because Su Ming had previously slaughtered the third-level zombies in the Red Star Base, many awakened people saw Su Ming’s arms turning into claws and blades.
Song Que and Xiong Tian just randomly found two or three awakeners, and after spending two evolution crystals, they got the information they wanted.
However, as the saying goes, seeing is believing, hearing is false.
In order to confirm that Su Ming can also transform his body into a weapon, Xiong Tian deliberately brought up this topic from Cui Wenjing.
This method was actually thought of by Xiong Tian himself. If Song Que knew that Xiong Tian did not ask Su Ming according to his own questions, but designed this series of closely connected questions, he would definitely shout that the boy is not worth discussing with.
Xiong Tian, who did not know that he had exposed his true thoughts, soon showed a surprised expression on his face, and then said.
"Brother Su, your ability is really amazing. With so many weapons, you don't have to worry about the lack of weapons."
Hearing Xiong Tian's somewhat stuttering words, Su Ming remained calm on the surface, but his heart sank.
Although he didn't know what happened, there was no doubt that this guy named Xiong Tian definitely had some special ideas about him.
Lowering his head to hide the darkness in his eyes, Su Ming looked at the puddle in front of him and said in a faint voice.
"President Xiong, have we met before?"
"Ah?"
Hearing Su Ming's question, Xiong Tian was stunned, and then said.
"No, why do you say that, brother Su."
