The Only Spatial Ability User In The Apocalypse-Chapter 74 The Bridge
Only Sylas was driving without rest. Major Kyle wanted to let some soldiers accompany him when they set out from N City, but Sylas rejected it. He didn’t want to risk exposing his secrets. His ability was very different, which made him a little cautious.
And if, like they thought, the apocalypse was man-made, those people behind it would be obsessed with studying human bodies. What if they caught news about his ability and captured him? He would be turned into an experimental subject.
One thing Sylas feared was what if the government was behind it or if some people from the government were involved too?
Sylas didn’t dare to take the risk and tell others about his ability, even if they could be trusted. He first planned to observe other ability users first, especially space ability users. If all the space ability users experienced the same thing as him, it wouldn’t be much of a problem, but if only his ability was different, it would be both good and bad for him.
Sylas looked at his wristwatch and saw it was past midnight.
Since they were in the middle of the forest, there were no zombies, only mutated plants and animals.
Sylas could occasionally hear the sound of gunshots from ahead.
After a minute, Sylas sensed the cars stopping.
Sylas also stopped his car and got out. His senses spread out, checking the surroundings for any dangers lurking in the dark.
Ahead was a river, and Major Kyle and the others gathered near the river.
Sylas sensed that something was wrong, so he immediately went towards them. With his speed, he crossed the convoy of cars within a minute and arrived near Major Kyle.
"What happened?" Sylas asked as soon as he reached.
Major Kyle motioned towards the bridge and said, "There seem to be mutated plants on the bridge, and I don’t think the bridge is stable either."
Sylas’s senses spread out as he carefully observed the bridge. There were several vine plants coiled around the bridge’s suspension cables. Sylas could sense not only one but several mutated plants on the bridge.
There were some wrecked cars on the bridge, and one car was hanging from the bridge with a vine as thick as an arm.
"What should we do?" Leo asked as he also observed the bridge.
"There are cracks on the bridge too," Shuan said as he knelt down and placed his hand on the edge of the bridge. He could sense the condition of the bridge using his earth ability. But he couldn’t sense the whole structure of the bridge since it consumed a lot of energy. Moreover, the bridge was big and long. His ability was not strong enough to feel it all. But he could sense a part of it and immediately spotted cracks in it.
Sylas could also sense the cracks in the bridge.
"This bridge is the only route that connects the northern region to the rest of the country. Only after crossing this bridge can we reach the capital. So we have to come up with a way to cross this bridge," Major Kyle said with a grave expression.
"I can use my earth ability to repair the cracks in the bridge, but it will take time," Shuan said. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺
"Even if it takes time, as long as it can be repaired, there’s no problem. But those mutated plants on the bridge are the main problem," Major Kyle said as he observed the thick vines coiled around the bridge.
"There are several mutated plants on the bridge, not only one," Sylas said.
"What? More than one!" Dylan exclaimed as he looked at the bridge. Everyone present took a deep breath too, not expecting there to be more than one mutated plant.
"Not only that, there are other creatures inside the river too," Sylas said as he crossed his arms and sensed the river.
"Inside the river too!" Major Kyle also exclaimed and used his senses to probe the river, but his senses couldn’t penetrate it.
"What should we do? Fight the mutated plants?" Leo asked.
"We have no choice. If we want to cross the bridge, we have to fight the mutated plants, but we have to be careful. Extra careful when fighting the mutated plants. If we fall into the river while fighting the mutated plants, the chances of survival are very slim. I can sense the presence of strong mutated aquatic creatures in the river," Sylas said.
Everyone understood Sylas’ words and couldn’t help but feel scared looking at the river.
Major Kyle frowned and said, "Fighting the mutated plants is okay, but what I am worried about is what if the bridge gets badly damaged or, in the worst case, collapses due to the impact of our fighting? Then all our struggles in fighting them will be in vain."
Sylas was also worried about that.
The damaged parts could be repaired using earth ability, but if the bridge collapsed, then there was nothing they could do.
Moreover, by looking at the mutated plants’ thick vines, Sylas knew that they could easily damage the bridge.
Fighting the mutated plants on the bridge while also trying not to damage the bridge wouldn’t be easy. They would be at a disadvantage.
"It’s moving!" Leo suddenly exclaimed.
The mutated plant’s thick vine that was coiled around the suspension cable moved slowly like a serpent coiling around the cable.
"Everyone stay alert," Major Kyle said as his fire ability started to surge out, ready to fight at any moment.
Sylas frowned as he observed the vines.
"All of them are very strong. I can feel their energy," Serena said as she got out of the car. She had been looking after Dudu inside the car. After upgrading her strength, she could no longer feel oppression from the mutated plants. Before, when her strength was at a low level, she could barely breathe. But now she could face them and fight the mutated plants without feeling oppressed.
The mutated plants seemed to sense them as slowly all the vines coiled around the bridge started to move, slowly writhing against the bridge and making their way towards them.
