My Apocalypse System Arrives 10 Years Early

Chapter 295: Chapter 214: Testing Abilities with 2 Girls (Part 2)

Once inside, it was surprisingly a two-story space. The lower level, in particular, was very spacious. It even had a three-bedroom, one-living-room layout. There were stone beds in the rooms, and with ventilation shafts, it didn’t feel stuffy. On the contrary, the air inside was quite fresh.

”Let’s do the demonstration here,” Li Xiang said, beckoning the three of them into the living area.

Zhao Xueqing and Lei Xiaohui exchanged a glance, and Zhao Xueqing said, ”Xiaohui, why don’t you go first.”

”Alright.” Not one to refuse, Lei Xiaohui was eager to try. She took a few steps back, then said to the others, ”You guys should back up a bit, too.”

The other three moved farther back.

Leaving about four meters of space in the middle, Lei Xiaohui let out a sharp cry. With a pulling motion of her hands in the air, a Flaming Long Spear materialized in her grasp.

Gripping the Flaming Long Spear, she performed a few moves—thrusting, stabbing, flicking, deflecting, blocking, seizing, twisting, and lifting... The movements created a whistling wind.

The fiercely burning flames brightly illuminated the cave, casting a reddish glow on everyone’s faces.

Li Xiang asked, ”Can you change it into other forms?”

Lei Xiaohui said, ”I can.” She then switched to a Flaming Blade, a Flaming Palm, a Red Fire Whip... and various other forms.

Their power was quite impressive. The only issue was that using them could easily start a large fire.

Of course, in a frozen Apocalypse, that wasn’t a concern.

”That’s also very good.” Li Xiang thought for a moment and asked, ”Can you attack from a distance?”

Lei Xiaohui shook her head. ”Not really. It dissipates after leaving my hand for about three meters.”

Yao Yao asked, ”Brother, how would you counter a skill like hers?”

’Lei Xiaohui is really amazing,’ she thought to herself. ’To awaken such a strong Superpower... If I had to fight her, wouldn’t I just be burned to death? I was careless before. When it comes to actual combat ability, I’m no match for her.’

Zhao Xueqing was also very curious about how Li Xiang would handle it. If it were her, she felt that Lei Xiaohui’s abilities were a perfect counter to her own.

Li Xiang said, ”For you, Yao Yao, it would probably be difficult to deal with. You’d have to create distance and use firearms. But as for me, Xiaohui can’t break through my defenses. Besides, I have ranged attacks.”

He raised his hand, and a blast of Cold Ice Sword Qi shot out, embedding itself in the distant stone wall. It was incredibly sharp.

Lei Xiaohui was full of admiration and said, ”Brother, with a preemptive strike like that, I’d be dead before I could even make a move.”

As for Li Xiang’s claim that the Flame Spear couldn’t break his defense, Lei Xiaohui naturally believed him. There was no need to even ask. ’Brother has plenty of tricks up his sleeve.’

”Xueqing, you’re up,” Li Xiang gestured for Zhao Xueqing to come forward.

So, Zhao Xueqing began her demonstration.

Her beautiful hair danced, moving without any wind. After gathering her power for a moment, she suddenly spread her arms. Countless vines surged out with a RUSTLE, wrapping around the living area several times.

Vine Technique!

Yao Yao exclaimed in surprise, ”Are you some kind of Forest Queen?” She and Lei Xiaohui shone their flashlights all around. They felt as if they were now completely surrounded by Zhao Xueqing’s vines.

A moment ago, it was a bare stone chamber. Now, it was as if they were in a green jungle.

Li Xiang had his Night Vision Superpower, so he could see even more clearly. These vines were lush and leafy, and very sturdy. Moreover, hidden beneath the emerald leaves were small, sharp thorns.

So, Li Xiang asked, ”Are the small thorns on your vines offensive?”

Zhao Xueqing nodded and said, ”Of course they are. I can bind enemies with the vines, and then the thorns will dig into their flesh, making them afraid to struggle. The more they struggle, the more it hurts.”

Yao Yao couldn’t help but suck in a cold breath, subconsciously touching her own smooth arm. ’I’d better not mess with Zhao Xueqing in the future,’ she thought. ’Who would’ve thought she was so powerful. It seems like this Vine Technique is a perfect counter for me. If she tied me up and the thorns dug into my flesh, no matter how I changed my body, I wouldn’t be able to escape.’

’Oh man, Xiaohui can burn me, and Zhao Xueqing can tie me up. I can’t beat either of them. This is so frustrating!’

Lei Xiaohui fell into deep thought, pondering to herself, ’My abilities seem to counter hers, but it’s not a sure thing. If she has enough vines, I might not be able to burn through them all.’

’As for Yao Yao, before I could even burn her, she’d have me burning up. My fire can scorch a hillside, but she could set an entire mountain aflame.’

Li Xiang nodded, also quite impressed. Wanting to test the power of Zhao Xueqing’s Vine Technique, he said, ”Try to bind me. Let me feel its strength.”

”Huh? I’m not sure that’s a good idea...” Zhao Xueqing hesitated.

Yao Yao heckled, ”What are you afraid of? Are you worried Brother can’t handle you? If that’s really the case, haha, you restrain Brother, and the three of us will jump him and have our way with him.”

Li Xiang stumbled, nearly fainting. ”Yao Yao, can you please try not to be so completely unfiltered in the future?”

’Sister Yao really is something else,’ Lei Xiaohui thought. ’She almost had *me* burning up. Those wild words of hers really make your heart race.’

Zhao Xueqing’s cheeks turned scarlet as a torrent of thoughts ran through her mind. ’Yao Yao is so brazen. Even if my Vine Technique is powerful, I’m no match for her at all. Brother is going to be conquered by her flirtatious tricks sooner or later. Sigh, but I’m not so sure about myself. I’m at a disadvantage for being so thin-skinned.’

Yao Yao laughed sweetly and said, ”There’s no one else here anyway. It’s the middle of the night, so what’s wrong with a little private talk? Besides, I wouldn’t say things this explicit when outsiders are around. It’s just the four of us, we’re all close.”

Li Xiang couldn’t be bothered to deal with her. He said to Zhao Xueqing, ”It’s fine, don’t hold back!”

Yao Yao clapped her hands and cheered, ”Brother’s about to play a bondage game!”

Li Xiang shot her a glare. ”One more word out of you, and watch out for Xueqing tying you up with her vines!”

Yao Yao touched her smooth arm and shrank back. ”I’m just part of the hype squad. Why are you being so mean?”

Zhao Xueqing then made her move. Suddenly, WHOOSH~, the vines seemed to come alive. Like slithering spirit snakes, they coiled toward Li Xiang.
