Tang not only raised his hands but also jumped off his horse.

Lu Xi'an slightly widened his eyes. Is this guy really so decisive? He still has ants and eagles he hasn't used.

Lu Xi'an could see another peregrine falcon flying in the sky, along with a bald eagle. There should be others too, lagging behind, not yet visible.

Not to mention the slight rustling in the weeds and dirt around, could be ants.

Tang said, "Brother, you should have said you have so many helpers! If I'd known you have Type A Neo-Humans and Type C Neo-Humans, why would I fight you?

"I lost, I surrender. Two Type A Neo-Humans paired with Type C Neo-Humans, I'm definitely no match. Let's talk this out!"

Lu Xi'an: "..."

Yao Wei: "..."

Luo Ping: "..."

Seems this guy thinks there's a Type C Neo-Human hidden behind Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei.

"Big brother, big sister, impressive!"

Luo Ping whispered to Lu Xi'an.

Lu Xi'an modestly replied, "Thanks to that booklet, with proper training, you can do it too."

Luo Ping said, "I'm a B-type, no matter how much I train, I can't exhibit abilities like yours. I'm just different, sigh..."

Lu Xi'an said, "Nonsense, I've seen the B-type booklet, train well and you can be strong too."

The booklet's guidance on B-types, overall, may not be as strong as Type A, but its use of abilities is unique.

The most important aspect is managing and deploying one's own energy.

Before a fight, replenish enough food, then learn to manage and control one's energy, enabling rapid recovery of body parts during battle.

Additionally, employing some self-hypnosis techniques or relying on external forces like Type C Neo-Humans can block out pain perception. With enough physical training, the power leveraged is exceptional.

Furthermore, as the body repeatedly experiences damage and recovery, as long as food is sufficiently supplemented, the body's strength gradually increases, not reaching Type A level, but paired with B-type recovery ability, can exert strong power.

Lu Xi'an knew Luo Ping trained diligently. After mastering the methods in the booklet, he used every available moment to harshly train himself, even resorting to self-harm.

Back at the Institute 923 base, watching Luo Ping's training made Lu Xi'an flinch with phantom pain, thinking, "Lucky I'm not a B-type Neo-Human, this training method is too brutal!"

At the time, Yao Wei heard Lu Xi'an's words and couldn't help but nod in agreement, showing how terrifying Luo Ping's intense training was.

Thinking of Luo Ping's training scenes always made Lu Xi'an wonder: this forever cheerful Sharp Brother, what strong belief supports him to reach such levels?

At this moment, hearing Lu Xi'an's words, Luo Ping just grinned modestly, saying, "Can't compare to big brother and big sister, far behind."

After saying this, he sighed, "What a pity... this guy surrendered too quickly, didn't get to show him my current prowess."

"..."

Lu Xi'an was silent for a moment, then said, "You didn't seem eager to attack. Weren't you planning to negotiate peacefully?"

Luo Ping grinned, "I actually intended to launch a sneak attack."

Lu Xi'an: "..."

Yao Wei: "..."

Luo Ping said, "This person is stronger than other Neo-Humans, but he's no good. Big brother, big sister, let me handle the negotiation with him."

Lu Xi'an said, "Up to you." He was holding a short needle, ready to throw it at Tang from a distance.

Tang probably hadn't expected Luo Ping's team to have Type A Neo-Humans, now within range of Type A Neo-Human's hidden weapon.

Otherwise, why would he get off his horse and surrender? Running away should be his first choice.

Luo Ping finished talking with Lu Xi'an and went over to speak with Tang, pointing at the dead peregrine falcon Lu Xi'an had thrown onto the vehicle, asking, "Tang, you surrendered, what's with this bird?"

Tang answered, "Consider this bird a gift for you, can roast and eat it, or make soup."

Luo Ping said, "Do you think it's enough?"

Tang forced a smile, "Enough... I guess?"

Luo Ping grinned, showing his teeth, like he wanted to bite Tang, "This amount of meat is too little, not enough for one bite for our big brother."

The smile froze on Tang's face, he retracted it forcefully, "Then what do you want?"

Luo Ping asked, "The one you're riding, what's it called?"

Tang: "..."

Seeing Tang fall silent, Luo Ping immediately bluffingly said, "Big brother, shoot him dead!"

But as he spoke, he gave Lu Xi'an a wink and hid his hand behind his back, gesturing to Lu Xi'an.

Lu Xi'an didn't perceive Tang as a threat, hadn't planned to act immediately anyway, and noticing Luo Ping's moves, naturally didn't act either.

He chuckled to himself, but he still played along with Tang, raising the hand holding the short needle slightly. The movement was a bit exaggerated, enough for Tang to see from afar.

That Tang wasn't sure if Lu Xi'an would really make a move, but in this situation, uncertainty brings fear, doesn't it? As soon as he saw Lu Xi'an's movement, he raised his hands high and quickly shouted, "Don't shoot! I'll give it to you!"

Luo Ping, taking advantage while feigning humility, said, "I was asking you what this thing you're riding is called, not asking for it. What are you doing?

"Forget it, forget it, since you said you want to give it, I can't refuse and waste your good intention, can I?

"Just stand there and don't move, let that thing you're riding come over by itself. I know you can make it happen."

Tang: "..."

Lu Xi'an felt the guy opposite was about to lose the look in his eyes that said he wanted to cut someone up, and he reminded Luo Ping: "That's a horse!"

Luo Ping realized, "Ah, so that's called a horse! You're impressive, brother, knowing even this!"

Lu Xi'an: "..."

Beside Lu Xi'an, Yao Wei glanced at Luo Ping with a faint look, as if to say: Lu Xi'an obviously knows!

There was a hint of small pride in her look. She seemed to think it's only natural for Lu Xi'an to know everything.

What Lu Xi'an didn't expect was, the person afar also had a "ah, now I understand" expression, even though he had grabbed a horse as a mount, he didn't know it's called a horse.

Tang and Luo Ping reached an agreement, patting the horse, which immediately galloped towards Luo Ping.

Because the distance was a bit far, the horse ran rather fast, and took a moment before it got there.

When it got close, Luo Ping suddenly noticed something wrong—the horse's eyes were blood-red, snorting loud and fast as if panting heavily, and something under the horse was swelling and bobbing intensely.

Lu Xi'an noticed it as well, dumbfounded, wondering why do Type C Neo-Humans love this trick?!

Lu Xi'an saw it, Yao Wei saw it too. She furrowed her brows, thought a bit, then glanced at Lu Xi'an again and relaxed her brow.

"Neigh, neigh—"

The horse snorted and panted as it approached Luo Ping, who was so anxious his teeth almost shattered, retreating repeatedly: "Tang, what did you do to this horse?! Be careful or my brother will make a move!"

In his panic, he couldn't hold onto the microphone, which slipped back into the car pulled by its cord, leaving him no choice but to shout as Tang did, trying loudly.

The shout, tinged with desperation, was hard to listen to.

Thankfully, his threat had worked, the horse immediately stopped, the bloodshot eyes quickly faded, and the entire horse became dispirited, that bobbing thing also went limp, losing its threat.

Lu Xi'an went over and grabbed the horse. With no harness on it, he could only hold its neck, ready to grab its mane if needed to prevent its escape.

"Phew..."

Luo Ping finally took a long breath of relief.

Tang shouted from afar: "I had no choice! Being this far away, it's the only move I have to get the horse obediently to your side.

"The horse didn't reach you, why are you panicking? Is it okay now? The horse is yours, can I leave?

"I only have this one horse, giving it to you means I have none left. Let me go now, we can stay peaceful from now on, what do you think?"

The measure word for horse is "匹," but in this world, where nobody knows the name of a horse, using the wrong measure word is understandable. Lu Xi'an found it awkward but didn't bother correcting.

Luo Ping sneered, whispering to Lu Xi'an: "Don't believe him, brother, not a word of truth comes from his mouth, he surely has more stock in Henan County's town."

After speaking privately to Lu Xi'an, Luo Ping picked up the microphone from the car again, used the loudspeaker to talk to Tang:

"Of course, we're supposed to stay out of each other's way originally, it's your own issue trying to provoke us as we pass by. Pay attention next time."

Tang saw Luo Ping's words and knew he could leave, breathing a sigh of relief, he said: "Alright, alright, I promise I won't stop you next time you're passing through!"

After finishing, he turned and left. The things flying over his head also turned southward.

Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei heard slight noises in the grass and mud, seemingly retreating like tidewaters.

There might have been ants controlled by Tang in the ground, but Tang certainly believed they wouldn't be useful against two "Type A Neo-Humans enhanced by Type C Neo-Humans," so he didn't command the ants to attack.

Luo Ping watched Tang disappear in the distance, then put the microphone back in the car, grinning as he came to talk with Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei.

He said: "Brother, sister, thank goodness for you two! Otherwise I might have suffered, might have had to tangle with that guy."

Lu Xi'an laughed: "Weren't you just about to trade blows with him?"

Luo Ping chuckled awkwardly: "Just kidding! Just kidding!"

Then he continued, "Sigh... though that guy isn't really good, compared to others, he indeed isn't too bad.

"At least he sympathizes with ordinary people, even hooked up with one as a lover, which led to a conflict with the south, forcing him to flee here.

"He had fought with me several times back then, eventually stayed in Henan County, gathering a group of regular folks.

"I thought with him living here, it would help me guard the southern entrance. If anyone comes from the south, they'd have to deal with him first, lightening my load, so I didn't bother him and agreed to stay out of each other's way.

"Back then he had no horse, less ants, maybe now he feels mighty again, saw me coming, and wanted to wrestle with me once more.

"Brother and sister, thanks to you, I feel heightened! This time scared him off, he's settled down, and relieved me greatly."
