The First Order Chapter 727 - Wang Yun’s probing

Chapter 727 Wang Yun’s probing

After Wang Yun killed those he wanted to kill, he immediately left the battlefield and waited quietly as the rest fought among themselves.
He made a deliberate observation and realized that only Ren Xiaosu, Yang Xiaojin, Zhou Qi, the Great Hoodwinker, Cheng Yu, and another woman were still conscious and unaffected.
There were very few women in this group to begin with, so it was quite unexpected that other than Yang Xiaojin, she was also able to remain in control of herself.
Before this, the young woman had always kept a low profile and did not even speak much in the group. But now, no one could continue pretending. To remain conscious after passing through this canyon, she had to be a supernatural being!
Among them, it was obvious that Ren Xiaosu and White Mask had the strongest mental strength. Wang Yun’s mind was only affected for a moment, probably four seconds at most. When he came back to his senses, he realized Ren Xiaosu and White Mask were totally fine. Even Yang Xiaojin was OK.
He had already felt that there was a problem with Ren Xiaosu. From the look of it, it seemed like it was even a big problem. But in terms of mental strength, Ren Xiaosu and White Mask were indeed the most powerful among them. He wondered who the stronger one was.
Unlike Cheng Yu, Wang Yun was not prejudiced in his judgment of Ren Xiaosu. After all, with the jumping rope and nursery rhyme incidents, it was really difficult for Cheng Yu to see Ren Xiaosu in a normal way. Therefore, he always had the thought that White Mask was capable while belittling Ren Xiaosu.
However, Wang Yun felt that Ren Xiaosu might not necessarily be weaker than White Mask. After all, those who did not reveal themselves were the ones who were the scariest these days.
At the moment, other than Luo Lan, Zhou Qi, and the Great Hoodwinker, no one in the group knew the names of Ren Xiaosu and Yang Xiaojin. Wang Yun felt there was a need to probe them a little. Perhaps their names had appeared before in that powerful memory of his. In that way, he could find out some clues about them.
The top tier of the group had appeared. It was Ren Xiaosu and White Mask. The second tier consisted of Wang Yun, Yang Xiaojin, Cheng Yu, Zhou Qi, the unknown young woman, and Song Qiao.
These people were the supernatural beings in the group. As for the remaining members, Wang Yun felt there was basically no need to rank them. Luo Lan’s behavior had puzzled him before. He was like a supernatural being, but his willpower did not seem that strong, so he temporarily ruled him out.
This was a coincidence. Luo Lan had just awakened his power, and it was very difficult for him to compare with other supernatural beings in terms of willpower. So he was ruled out by Wang Yun.
Ren Xiaosu finished making “Old Xu” knock everyone unconscious. Next to him, Yang Xiaojin asked softly, “Did you experience any hallucinations throughout all these?” “Oh, I did, I did!” Ren Xiaosu said, “In my hallucination, I was about to raise my saber and slash it at you. However, I had an internal struggle and thought to myself at that time, ‘How can I attack you? No matter who I attack, it mustn’t be you.’ And then I woke up.”
Yang Xiaojin rolled her eyes and said, “Stop being melodramatic. I think everyone here thought they were being attacked, but you’re the only one who’s hallucinating that you’re attacking someone. Alright, stop faking it. So you were really not affected at all.”
Yang Xiaojin remembered what she had said before. “When a disaster comes, mental strength becomes the highest caliber of weapon humanity has in the face of danger.”
Then just how strong would Ren Xiaosu’s willpower have to be?
Even now, no consortium or organization in this world had a clear set of standards that defined a supernatural being’s level.
In fact, who in this world had the ability to define such superpowers? The Pyro Company could categorize their members from Ti to T5 as they only needed to look at their physical fitness, with the speed or strength of a punch or any other overall ratings to determine their levels.
But the superpowers of other supernatural beings were unpredictable, so how could they be defined?
Job roles could be defined, and salaries could also be defined, but how were superpowers supposed to be defined? They could only be classified by danger ratings. Yang Xiaojin knew that someone in the Saboteurs was already coming up with a list to categorize all the supernatural beings that had appeared before. There would be classifications based on different categories. However, she did not know the progress of this, nor did she know what rating Ren Xiaosu had been assigned.
Cheng Yu had a worried frown on his face on the battlefield. There were originally more than 60 people in the team, and this was even the number after the two teams had merged.
In the end, nine people had died in this chaos, six were seriously injured, and 17 others were lightly injured. It was quite tragic.
He did not even know how the Pyro Company did it. They had only just stepped out of the canyon before they started attacking one another.
Cheng Yu looked at the people who were still conscious. “Did you all also experience a hallucination that someone had attacked you?”
“That’s right.” Wang Yun nodded.
“It seems like there’s something strange about this canyon.” Cheng Yu said, “Everyone, let’s help save the wounded first. We’ll talk about it after they wake up.”
“What should we do with the seriously injured?” Wang Yun asked, “Should we continue bringing them with us? Actually, I suggest we don’t even bring along any of those who suffered light injuries. Who knows what else is waiting in the Sacred Mountains? The smell of blood is gonna make us a target in the wilderness.”
“No, I want to go into the Sacred Mountains!” Luo Lan gradually came to. He was the first person to regain consciousness…
Gradually, the people outside the canyon started waking up as well. It wasn’t so bad for those who were not injured, but those who were immediately started wailing in pain when they woke up. They might as well have remained unconscious.
Luo Lan secretly asked Ren Xiaosu for the black medicine before getting him to extract the bullet.
Ren Xiaosu glanced at him. “Bear with it.”
“Don’t worry,” Before Luo Lan could finish speaking, Ren Xiaosu had already used a pair of forceps to clip the bullet out of his leg while he was distracted.
This was to prevent Luo Lan from getting too nervous and having his muscles clamp down on the bullet, which would cause him to suffer even more.
Ren Xiaosu threw the bullet aside and said, “Not bad, you didn’t make a sound.”
Luo Lan broke out into a cold sweat. “I’m not kidding you; I, Luo Lan, am a real man.”
Ren Xiaosu gave him another glance. Usually, Luo Lan would complain about being tired even if he didn’t seem so. He was as frivolous as he could be, and it made him seem like he was extremely unreliable. But during critical moments, some of his true qualities would surface and reveal themselves.
“Then why are you always pretending?” Ren Xiaosu asked, “It’s not like you’re a lazy person either.”
“Aren’t I just trying to strategically confuse my opponents?” Luo Lan chuckled. When the black medicine was applied, his pain immediately went away.
When Wang Yun saw they were conversing with one another in a rather relaxed manner, he suddenly took the opportunity to ask Ren Xiaosu jokingly, “By the way, we’ve been traveling together for so long now, but I still didn’t get your name yet. How should I address you? We’ll still be traveling together for some time in the coming days, so I can’t possibly keep calling you ‘hey,’ right?”
“My name?” Ren Xiaosu was taken aback.
Wang Yun smiled and said, “Yes.”
“Oh.” Ren Xiaosu thought for a moment. “I’m sorry, I was named too long ago, so I seem to have forgotten what it is.”
Wang Yun was surprised. What kind of fucking lame excuse was that?!
