Chapter 652: Survivors (II)
Chen Geng walked ahead, with Zhou You following behind.
It had to be said that this guy truly had some skills. No wonder he had been selected for the assault team. With several firefly-like sparks flickering between his fingers, he could discern the right direction amid the maze-like paths.
Zhou You found the sight familiar and could not help asking.
"Old Chen."
Chen Geng looked slightly baffled.
"...Old Chen?"
"What else should I call you? Brother Chen?"
"...Then Old Chen it is... By the way, does Mr. Zhou have a question?"
Zhou You pointed at the firefly lights between his fingers.
"That thing of yours looks pretty useful. Where did you learn it?"
Since it involved his own secret, Chen Geng truly did not want to say—but his life was now entirely in Zhou You's hands. After thinking for a while, he had no choice but to answer.
"I traded for it from an anomaly once. It doesn't have much combat capability, but it's exceptionally convenient for scouting."
"Can I take a look?"
"...Take a look?"
Chen Geng was reluctant, but he still instinctively handed it over.
Then, before his disbelieving eyes, Zhou You lightly flicked with his index finger and plucked that wisp of firefly light onto his own hand!
...How was that possible?!
His flame truly had little offensive power, but that only meant it could not be thrown or flung about—its temperature was still extremely high. An ordinary person who touched it might not die on contact, but losing half a hand to the burn would not be a problem.
Even he had to be extremely careful when using it, yet this man... had simply caught it so easily?
Ignoring Chen Geng's changing expression, Zhou You raised the tiny light before his eyes.
