Chapter 217 Opening
When the red beam of light finally hit the marked position, the instantaneous burst of light ignited the sky of Jianghuai City. Everyone present closed their eyes, and then after feeling a shake under their feet, they took out the special glasses that had been prepared long ago from their pockets and put them on. Only then did they dare to look forward again.
The energy that was ejected previously had already hit the invisible barrier, making a deafening noise.
The intersection of the barrier and the beam of light began to turn red, as if it was a red-hot iron, emitting a fiery breath. As time passed, the red-hot area became larger and larger, and the surrounding space began to distort. A huge energy barrier slowly appeared in front of everyone. This barrier was like a mirror, reflecting everything around it clearly.
If you look closely, you can see that with the impact of energy, a large amount of fluorescence appears on the mirror surface and keeps flowing. These fluorescences keep flowing on the mirror surface, which makes people dazzled. Every time the fluorescence flows, it will bring a slight fluctuation, but it is this fluctuation that disperses the energy.
Everyone looked at the scene in front of them with astonishment in their hearts. They had never seen such a powerful and strange defense mechanism that could easily withstand the light beam attacks from so many people.
They had used these combos many times before, and even the S-level infected had to avoid their sharp edges when they encountered them, but the energy of this barrier seemed endless, and as the beam of light gradually entered, it showed no signs of breaking.
At this time, Wang Shun and Zagros were each holding half a watermelon inside the barrier, and it looked like fireworks were being set off outside, which was quite beautiful.
"Boss, how long do you think they will stay?"
"I don't know. It looks like they won't leave tonight."
"Ah, will it be open tomorrow? I'm a little scared of so many people!"
"Don't be nervous, what are you afraid of when I'm here to protect you?"
"No, I think this is an unmanned supermarket. Pan doesn't manage the cashier. Our supermarket doesn't even have a door on any side. If someone wants to steal something, I won't be able to keep an eye on them!"
"Don't worry, I've already thought of it for you. Take this thing. With this thing, I can kill anyone who tries to buy for free with me. I'll leave the supermarket business to you. I'm going back to sleep. Don't call me if there's nothing wrong, and don't call me if there's something wrong!"
Wang Shun took the thing thrown by Zagros and instantly knew its use. He looked at the people gathered outside again, took a deep breath, turned around and entered the supermarket.

"Commander Lu, this place is a bit weird, how about we retreat first?"
Lu Zhou looked at the transparent barrier in the distance. Even the combined attacks of so many people were useless. Just when he was about to ask everyone to retreat, he suddenly felt like he was being spied on.
"Who! Get out here!"
Lu Zhou roared, and a powerful mental force swept out like a storm, instantly stirring the surrounding air and solidifying it. A hunched figure suddenly flashed among the crowd, and before everyone had time to react, he rushed out of the city at an astonishing speed.
The other people immediately wanted to stop him, but the hunched figure seemed to have figured out the whole situation and instantly slipped into the street next to him. The figure moved so agilely that the others could only see a gray line running in a Z shape on the street.
"Hmph! Want to run?"
Lu Zhou sneered, looked at the man's fleeing back, lightly tapped the air with his index finger, and a ball of golden flame suddenly appeared from his fingertips. As his finger waved, the ball of golden flame rushed towards the man's back at an astonishing speed like a burning bullet.
Everyone only saw a flash of golden light, and then the man who was fleeing in the distance had his abdomen pierced by flames, and the whole person staggered by the force. However, to their surprise, the man did not seem to be affected too much. After stabilizing his body, he ran forward again and was about to rush out of the city gate.
"what happened?"
Lu Zhou frowned, and his figure turned into a streak of fire and disappeared. The next second, he came behind the man, grabbed him up, and returned to the crowd in a flash.
"Don't kill me! Don't kill me!"
Everyone then realized that Lu Zhou had actually captured a skinny old man! His skin was wrinkled and drooping, as if it had lost all moisture and elasticity. However, when the old man raised his head, everyone involuntarily took a few steps back.
They stared with wide eyes, looking at the old man's face covered with black lines in amazement. Those black lines were like twisted snakes, winding on his face, which was creepy, especially his black eyes, which were lifeless and deep like two black holes, revealing an unspeakable weirdness.
"Infected body!"
"kill him!"
Someone wanted to attack immediately, but was stopped by Lu Zhou. He threw the old man to the ground and asked condescendingly: "Who are you? Why don't I sense the breath of an infected person on you? If you don't tell the truth, I will kill you now!"
Everyone reacted upon hearing this. Not only did they not sense anything, but even the surrounding detection machines did not respond. Could it be that the infected body has evolved to such an extent? If so, humans are in danger.
"Stop, stop, stop!" The skinny old man saw that others were about to take action and hurried to stop them.
"I'm not here to cause trouble to you humans, I'm here to seek refuge!"
"Surrender? Who are you going to surrender to as an A-level expert? And how did you hide your aura and blend into the city? Tell me! Is there anyone to pick you up!" The old man's strength has reached A-level, but none of them has ever seen him on the battlefield. With his strength, he is a top fighter even among the infected. Now, such a master has sneaked into the city. Is there a traitor?
"I am already old, and I just want to find a place to retire. I have never interfered in the affairs between you and the infected. I am no longer an infected. All these abilities were given to me by an adult. He promised me that as long as I survive, he would take me in as his subordinate."
"Sir? Do you think there is the sir you mentioned among us?"
After Lu Zhou finished speaking, a powerful aura emerged from his body, shocking the group of A-level people behind him in place, leaving them no chance to even speak. He wanted to see if there was a traitor among humans.
Who knew that the skinny old man said without even looking at them, "Impossible, you guys are not even as good as one finger of the adult. I know you are the leader of the human side, including the other two S-levels. Don't worry, there are no spies. It seems that you don't know the existence of that adult. I have said so much to you in vain. It's really a waste of my saliva."
