We're Not the Same!

After giving the two little Beast a few head pats, Chen Mo withdrew his hands amidst their disappointed gazes and strode towards the withered tree trunk lying across the road in front of the carriage.

Seeing this, Victor and James thought Chen Mo was going to move it, so they quickly ran over to help.

Chen Mo stopped in front of the withered tree. It was a maple tree that had long since died. The thickest part of the trunk was more than a person's width. Although all the leaves had fallen, the branches were still intact, completely blocking the road.

Victor and James ran over, only to find Chen Mo standing there motionless. They assumed Chen Mo didn't know what to do.

This dead tree weighs at least one or two tons. It must have taken five robbers a lot of effort to move it. It would not be easy for just three people to move it.

What the two didn't know was that Chen Mo wasn't unsure what to do, but rather that he had too many options and didn't know which one to use.

Should he just carry it? With Chen Mo's strength, which is eight times that of an ordinary person, it would be incredibly easy, but it would inevitably get his hands dirty, and he would have to wash them, which would be troublesome.

Use the King's Sword to cut it? Even if you cut it into pieces, you still have to move it; it's the same thing.

Burn it with an energy gun? There are fallen leaves all over the ground. If you set them on fire, it will cause a forest fire, destroying the environment. That's not good.

Iron Man suit? Batmobile? Putting aside whether such a huge thing would scare the two little ones if it suddenly appeared, using their strongest weapon for such a small tree is like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut.

Chen Mo went through the weapons and equipment in the space in his mind, and at noon he found something.

To Victor and James's astonishment, a cool silver gun with a thick, long barrel, about the same length and thickness as their arms, appeared out of thin air in Chen Mo's hand. The next moment, Chen Mo aimed the weapon at the dead tree lying in the middle of the road and gently pulled the trigger.

A low hum followed, and a string of light blue light started to appear from the base of the barrel and quickly spread towards the muzzle. In the blink of an eye, the entire barrel was lit up with Lan Guang.

Seemingly having accumulated enough energy, accompanied by a somewhat piercing whistling sound, a hazy, light blue ball of light shot out from the thick muzzle of the gun and flew at an extremely fast speed toward the tree trunk in the middle of the road.

All of this happened very quickly. In the blink of an eye, accompanied by a vibration in the air and a low explosion, the section of the withered tree in front of them that was hit by the light blue light, along with a section of the tree more than two meters wide around it, suddenly exploded into a pile of wood chips and debris, which scattered in all directions.

The two little ones stared wide-eyed in disbelief as the once sturdy tree blocking their path suddenly exploded like quicksand, turning into powder that scattered on the ground.

What kind of weapon is this? Its power is so great that it can pulverize a tree as thick as a person. Also, where did the gentleman take this powerful weapon from? Given its size, it's impossible for him to hide it on his person without being detected. Moreover, they saw it with their own eyes just now; the weapon appeared out of thin air in his hand.

Does the gentleman also possess some magical special ability, such as conjuring up this super weapon out of thin air?

They were now Chen Mo's followers, and because of their status, they didn't ask Chen Mo any questions. However, Chen Mo could tell from their expressions that they were deeply puzzled.

Looking down at the two of them, Chen Mo smiled slightly and said gently.

"Actually, I am just like you, a person with special abilities."

Upon hearing this, Victor and James both showed expressions of "I knew it!" The two, who were already regarded as outcasts and monsters because of their special abilities, looked at Chen Mo with even more kindness and trust, as if they had found kindred spirits.

"Compared to ordinary people, we possess powerful special abilities that they lack, and strength far surpasses theirs. In their eyes, we are monsters, but in reality, we are the true powerhouses!"

Chen Mo's words made their eyes light up.

"As for my abilities, you will find out later."

Chen Mo hadn't figured out how to explain his abilities either: physical enhancement? Spatial Ability? Precognition?

So he decided to keep it a secret for now. Anyway, he didn't intend to completely hide it from the two of them. He would inevitably reveal his various abilities to them in the future, so let them experience them gradually.

After Chen Mo finished speaking, ignoring the incredibly curious expressions on their faces, he strode towards the carriage.

As they walked, Chen Mo's voice drifted over.

"We've already wasted a lot of time, let's get going!"

Still immersed in the immense power of the Sonic Cannon Chen Mo had just unleashed and the surprise of discovering that Chen Mo was one of their kind, the two little ones heard Chen Mo's command and quickly composed themselves, jogging to catch up with Chen Mo. This time, James took the initiative to run to the driver's seat and drive himself.

However, James' performance in the battle just now did impress Victor. In terms of numbers, James had killed more enemies than him. While feeling proud of his little brother, Victor also realized that James was not as fragile as he had imagined. So he didn't fight with him, gave James an approving smile, and then Victor into the carriage.

Having received his brother's praise and approval, James proudly raised his round little face, gave the reins a sharp jerk, and shouted a clear and powerful shout.

"Drive!"

Through this battle, Chen Mo not only gained the complete approval of the two children and deepened their relationship, but also learned about their current strength through their performance in the battle.

At first, Chen Mo was worried that the two were still young and their abilities had not been fully awakened. Their self-healing ability had not yet reached its peak, so they could be attacked by bullets without any problems.

Chen Mo wasn't sure if they could survive being shot in the head and heart, so he kept a close eye on the battlefield from the beginning. When the two were under deadly threat from guns and axes, he fired in time to eliminate the threat, allowing them to train in combat under safe conditions.

Ultimately, based on the two's combat performance, the results confirmed Chen Mo's guess.

James's abilities were only awakened after his adoptive father was killed. Apart from being able to extend bone claws from his hands, his physical abilities have improved only slightly. He is much stronger than his peers, but still lags behind a robust adult. However, his stamina, endurance, recovery speed, and self-healing ability are much better than normal.

Although he was a little out of breath after the intense battle, he still had plenty of energy, and the damage he had suffered from the continuous heavy blows had mostly recovered after the battle.
