Global Flood: I Survive on Duckweed

Chapter 258: Chapter 178: Must Study, Mutual Destruction

After taking care of the people on deck, Yu Ren charged into the cabin without the slightest hesitation.

But just then, an earth wall suddenly rose up at the cabin door. Yu Ren kicked it directly, and the wall, seemingly defenseless, shattered under his foot.

’Earth-Type Evolvers seem even weaker than Gold-Types!’ Yu Ren thought to himself.

The soil he had kicked apart suddenly crawled up his body, rapidly covering him from head to toe before quickly hardening!

Yu Ren was horrified. He tried to jump into the water, but his knees wouldn’t bend, and he couldn’t exert any force at all!

He was trapped!

”I had a feeling he was full of it. Just as I thought, he was just trying to distract us!” A burly man with a Western face slowly walked over. ”You must be the Mutant he was talking about. Quite peculiar, indeed!”

”Capturing one Mutant and one traitor... bringing you both back should be quite the achievement!” the man continued with a smile.

When Wu Jin saw the man, he immediately turned and shouted, ”Run! Now!”

But the survivors who had been ordered to guard Wu Jin with guns saw his movement and immediately opened fire.

RAT-A-TAT-TAT!

A steel plate instantly materialized in front of Wu Jin, blocking the bullets.

PING! CLANG!

Using the moment the steel plate blocked the bullets, Wu Jin rushed into the cabin, planning to hijack the boat and escape.

The moment Yu Ren appeared on the opposite deck, there was no turning back for Wu Jin.

No matter how he tried to explain himself, the members of Squad 9 had been wiped out by Yu Ren, all because he had drawn their attention.

It would have been one thing if everyone from Squad 9 had died, but now there was Jim, a powerful Earth-Type Evolver. If Jim reported this to his superiors, Wu Jin would definitely be executed by Bao Mu!

As for getting rid of Jim, Wu Jin didn’t even consider it. Jim’s Mental Energy was far greater than his!

Therefore, his only chance of survival was to flee!

Without hesitation, Wu Jin took out the pilot in the cockpit and started the speedboat himself.

”Trying to run?” Jim sneered. He reinforced the shell restraining Yu Ren, then leaped directly from the deck to Wu Jin’s speedboat!

Because the speedboat had just started, they hadn’t put much distance between them yet. Jim landed smoothly on Wu Jin’s boat.

The remaining survivors, though unclear on what was happening on the other speedboat, still instinctively opened fire when they saw Jim jump over.

Jim curled his lip, raised an earth wall, and then quickly rushed into the cabin, knocking out all the survivors with a single punch each.

’Can’t waste test subjects, after all!’

”Are you still going to struggle?” Jim asked Wu Jin leisurely.

”I surrender!” Wu Jin replied with a sigh.

”Then let’s go. Get on the other speedboat,” Jim said.

’It will be easier to control them if I keep Wu Jin and Yu Ren together.’

Wu Jin, seemingly having given up all resistance, did as Jim asked and jumped over to the other speedboat.

At that moment, Yu Ren’s constant struggling had already caused cracks to form in the earthen shell encasing him!

Wu Jin, who had jumped over first, saw this and immediately used his Superpower to form a small hammer, striking at the joints of Yu Ren’s bindings!

BANG! BANG! BANG!

CRUMBLE!

The dirt fell to the floor, and Yu Ren was instantly free!

Though they hadn’t exchanged a word, the two men acted in perfect sync, turning their attention to Jim!

Seeing him free, Wu Jin immediately spun around and formed several daggers, which he sent flying toward the leaping Jim!

”What’s that saying you people from the Dragon Country have? Something about not shedding a tear until you see the coffin!” Jim said with a look of disdain as soil from the nearby flowerpots flew up to block the flying daggers!

Just then, Yu Ren attacked from the side.

Jim was startled. He immediately controlled the soil to cover his body, forming a suit of armor!

CLINK!

Jim blocked Yu Ren’s dagger with his forearm. Thanks to the Earth Armor, the dagger couldn’t pierce through!

”His eyes!” Wu Jin roared, controlling the daggers he had formed to stab toward Jim’s eyes.

Jim immediately retreated, shielding his eyes with his arms!

CLINK! CLINK!

But Yu Ren ignored Wu Jin’s shout, frantically attacking the spot over Jim’s heart!

With Wu Jin harassing him from the side, Jim didn’t dare use his Earth-Type Superpower to restrain Yu Ren. Doing so would leave his defenses vulnerable, and he’d likely be wounded by Wu Jin!

But cracks had already appeared on the Earth Armor where Yu Ren was attacking!

If this continued, the Earth Armor would soon shatter!

Jim was already regretting his decision. He shouldn’t have been so greedy for the credit; he should have just killed Yu Ren outright and then gone after Wu Jin!

But there was no time for regrets now. Yu Ren was about to break through his Earth Armor!

Gritting his teeth, Jim roared, ”All of you, die!”

The Earth Armor on his body instantly exploded into a volley of Earth Spikes that flew in all directions!

Wu Jin only had time to form a thin sheet of metal, but the Earth Spikes shot right through it, embedding themselves in his body. While none of the wounds were fatal, there were too many to count. Bleeding profusely, he screamed and collapsed!

Yu Ren was too close and had no time to react before the Earth Spikes hit him!

The scales on his body were highly defensive; the Earth Spikes only managed to damage them without harming the body beneath. However, a few spikes struck the unscaled area of his neck!

And in the very instant Jim dissipated his Earth Armor, Yu Ren plunged his dagger into Jim’s chest!

All three of them collapsed!

”Chief, it looks like the fight over there is over!” Lu Jiamei said urgently.

”You keep an eye out for any other speedboats approaching. Haonan, we’re moving in now,” Ren Yuanyang commanded in a low voice.
