“Let go of me! Let go of me!” The old man struggled and shouted after his arms were locked by Zhou Chen.

‘This mutant is so weak. Is he hiding his strength?’ Zhou Chen was puzzled by how easy it was to catch a mutant. Although he had seen very few mutants, they all had great strength.

“Old man, tell me, what is your superpower?” Zhou Chen asked.

The old man immediately stopped struggling and asked Zhou Chen in surprise, “Are you really just passing by? You’re not here to catch me?”

“I’ve already answered this question,” Zhou Chen frowned. “Hurry up and answer my question, or I won’t be polite.”

The old man heard Zhou Chen’s unfriendly tone and immediately replied, “My superpower is physical strengthening! It’s the most common kind of superpower!”

“Physical strengthening? Lucy, do you know what superpower this is?” Zhou Chen was not too sure what this superpower meant, so he asked Lucy, who had already picked up the old man’s rifle.

“Captain, physical strengthening usually means that the physique of the mutant is enhanced. This is the most common superpower. Every mutant basically has it, but the strength is varied,” Lucy explained.

Zhou Chen said angrily to the old man, “Old man, looks like you’re unwilling to speak the truth. Then I’ll send you to heaven.”

Zhou Chen had already wanted to kill the old man since he had tried to shoot him, but he had kept him alive because he was interested in what this old man’s superpower was. In the end, the old man was unwilling to say it, so he did not want to waste time. It just so happened that he could test if a passive skill could drop after killing a mutant.

“I’ll talk! I’ll talk!” Perhaps sensing Zhou Chen’s killing intent, the old man immediately shouted. “My superpower is healing! I can heal people who are contaminated by the apocalyptic pollution!”

“Healing? Show me,” Zhou Chen was not sure if what the old man said was true or not and was a little skeptical.

“Okay! Let go of me first!” The old man replied immediately. action

“Alright, I’ll give you one chance.” Zhou Chen released his hand and let the old man fall to the ground.

After the old man was released by Zhou Chen, he immediately took out a dagger from his pocket which made Zhou Chen, who was staring at him, narrow his eyes.

However, he was not stupid enough to try to attack Zhou Chen. Instead, he lightly cut his arm, creating a small bleeding wound. Then, he placed the dagger back in his pocket and pressed his right hand on the wound for a second. When he pulled it away, the wound disappeared and became as good as new.

“Do you believe me now? Can you leave?” The old man said to Zhou Chen.

“It does look like you are telling the truth.” Zhou Chen nodded. “But judging from your reaction earlier, it seems like someone is after you. Does your ability have such value?”

Zhou Chen felt that there was a problem. The healing ability this old man had displayed just now did not seem to have much value for him to be hunted, because some doctors could also do it. Although the speed might be slower, the advantage was that there were many doctors and the cost was low.

“Because my healing ability can completely eliminate mild apocalyptic pollution!” The old man immediately explained, and emphasized, “Some organizations want to study my ability to deal with the pollution, so they sent people to capture me.”

“Capture you? Shouldn’t they hire you with a high salary?” Zhou Chen was puzzled.

“Those are all evil forces! They want to make use of my ability for free!” The old man said agitatedly.

Zhou Chen couldn’t help but frown slightly, thinking about how to deal with this person. However, he realized that two people were approaching from outside with his Bloodthirst perception. Their goal was very clear as they were directly heading here.

‘The people who want to capture this old man are here?’ Zhou Chen guessed.

After some thought, he looked at Lucy who was holding a rifle, “Lucy, watch this person carefully. If he dares to run, kill him.”

“Understood, Captain!” Lucy immediately obeyed.

Seeing that Lucy was already aiming the gun at the old man, Zhou Chen quickly went out to welcome the two guests.

About ten seconds later, he saw a black-haired young man and a short middle-aged fatty walking up the stairs.

The two of them did not show any surprise when they saw Zhou Chen. It was as if they had foreseen his existence. The fatty was the first to speak, “Sir, we need the person in the room behind you. Can you do our Nete Tech a favor and hand him to us?”

Although the fatty spoke politely, his eyes were arrogant and his expression was cold, as if he thought nothing of Zhou Chen.

“Why do you want him?” Zhou Chen ignored their attitude and asked calmly.

“Hehe, you don’t even know this? Then there’s no need to know,” the fatty smiled coldly. “Cut the crap. I suggest you quickly give way. Otherwise, you will know the consequences of offending our Nete Tech.”

‘What Nete Tech? I’ve never heard of it.’ Zhou Chen was a little speechless. Then, he replied coldly to the two of them, “I don’t care who you are, but the person inside belongs to me now. I advise you not to have any thoughts on him.”

After realizing that the old man might be very valuable, Zhou Chen did not want to hand him over, even if the old man was useless to him now.

“Attack,” after hearing Zhou Chen’s reply, the black-haired young man beside the middle-aged fatty said impatiently.

Suddenly, Zhou Chen felt a headache, as if a thin needle had been stabbed into his head, making him nearly faint.

However, he did not faint. He only entered a short daze, allowing the middle-aged fatty to have the opportunity to close in.

The fatty displayed speed that did not match his physique. In the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of Zhou Chen and punched him in the head.

However, Zhou Chen recovered from the piercing pain in his head. He immediately dodged and punched the fatty.

The fatty reacted very quickly and immediately dodged. However, he did not expect Zhou Chen to be able to attack from afar, and was directly hit by the Eight Desolates True Energy.

After sending this fatty flying, Zhou Chen punched the long black-haired young man not far away, making his head explode like a watermelon.

The system’s announcement sounded in Zhou Chen’s mind..
