Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable Chapter 178: The Apocalypse - I Am Not the Holy Mother 85

Lin Shuangshuang turned around and realized that Li Wenbo was sitting cross-legged beside her, with a large iron basin filled with fruit placed in front of him.

The loud thud she heard earlier was the sound of Li Wenbo heavily placing the basin on the ground, using so much force that it made a noise reminiscent of sothing heavy falling, shocking Lin Shuangshuang.

She watched as Li Wenbo, with a sullen expression, stabbed randomly at the peeled fruit in the basin with a knife, causing juice to splash everywhere.

Feeling a bit sorry for the fruit mush, Lin Shuangshuang glanced at Zhang Ling, who was chatting happily with Jia Shuyi, and suddenly had a flash of insight, saying to Li Wenbo, "Wenbo, are you jealous?"

Li Wenbo imdiately reacted like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, but he managed to keep his voice low, indignantly retorting to Lin Shuangshuang, "Who said I have a secret crush on her! She smiles all day yet is like so kind of alternative stone-faced person, with a mind as scattered as a sieve. It’s impossible to tell what she is thinking or if she likes you or not, and she loves to sche. Anyone who falls for her is a masochist, and I won’t do such foolish things!"

Such a strong reaction, yet so much in denial! Lin Shuangshuang was speechless. Speaking of which, she was also rather expressionless, as was Chi Shaolong, a true ice-cold statue, and then there was Zhang Ling, another kind of stoic. Suddenly she realized their team was teeming with stone-faced people!

Lin Shuangshuang coughed as she looked at the fruit that had been turned into mush by Li Wenbo, "I think you’re already being a masochist! Also, don’t waste the fruit; rember to extract the juice and chill it. Xiao Ling loves it!"

Having said that, she didn’t care about the almost erupting Li Wenbo and stood up to leave. Left behind, Li Wenbo glared at the basin of fruit mush for a long ti before, in frustration, using his superpower to extract the juice into a glass bottle and found Chi Shaolong for so ice cubes to chill it!

Song Yuhang looked at Lin Shuangshuang, who sat beside him, in a good mood and couldn’t hide her smile as she picked fish bones from a piece of grilled fish. He asked curiously, "Shuangshuang, did sothing good happen to you? Why are you so happy?"

"Nothing, it’s just that spring has arrived!" Lin Shuangshuang improbably displayed a smile and took a big bite of the grilled fish, tasting its deliciousness.

Her reaction left Song Yuhang completely puzzled, full of question marks. Spring has arrived? It’s so hot now, isn’t it already sumr? What has gotten into her head!

Lin Shuangshuang paid no mind to Song Yuhang’s confused look and exchanged a knowing smile with Li Wenxuan, who was multitasking between grilling fish and keeping an eye on his younger brother, perplexing Song Yuhang further. What are these two up to?

After dinner, during rest ti, Li Wenxuan took so movable fortress components out from his space to construct a smaller one for Li Man and Jia Shuyi, so they could have a conversation if needed. anwhile, Monkey was already sent by Zhang Ling to monitor Li Man and Jia Shuyi.

As for Lin Shuangshuang’s group, they all sat around together, drinking chilled fruit juice to cool down while listening to Zhang Ling recount her day’s findings.

Earlier, when Zhang Ling had been chatting with Jia Shuyi, she had deliberately guided him to talk about many thrilling combat experiences he had since entering here, focusing mainly on his own martial prowess and fun anecdotes about interactions with his teammates.

Even though Jia Shuyi was utterly devoted to Li Man, it didn’t an he had no desire to show off in front of other won, especially one who seed harmless and displayed complete admiration for him.

Zhang Ling subtly guided the conversation, leading Jia Shuyi to inadvertently spill all the beans about his teammates through casual bragging. At this mont, Zhang Ling was sharing the information she had pried from Jia Shuyi’s mouth with the group.

"Li Man’s superpower is a wind ability, quite powerful, but still likely not as strong as Brother Song. Jia Shuyi is a water ability user; I intentionally had him create many small, lively animals out of water for to see—his manipulation was agile and varied, lasted a long ti, and demonstrated strong superpower control, possibly a notch above Brother Wenbo. He harbors a fervent admiration for Li Man, which likely makes him the least likely to betray her." Zhang Ling said.

As soon as Zhang Ling finished speaking, Li Wenbo’s face turned unsightly, and he childishly poured out and downed what was left of the glass bottle ant for Zhang Ling alone to drink!

The group...

Zhang Ling...

Lin Shuangshuang facepald; Li Wenbo’s jealousy went too far! And he was so childish about it; no wonder soone as clever as Zhang Ling never considered that Li Wenbo might have feelings for her.

But it’s also possible Zhang Ling knew and just pretended not to, because she didn’t want anything with Li Wenbo—a realization Lin Shuangshuang reached, concerned over Li Wenbo’s immaturity. With an emotional intelligence this low, how could he win over Zhang Ling?

Rembering when she had first t Li Wenbo, he hid his true character well, appearing cultured and smart, but once familiar, his true nature was completely exposed—not only violent and belligerent but increasingly childish, especially when it ca to Zhang Ling.

Moving past this interlude with Li Wenbo, Zhang Ling continued, "Besides Jia Shuyi and Li Man, their team includes two power ability users. Although this ability is common, being valued by Li Man suggests their power is much higher than ordinary users’, likely able to defeat high-level superpower users. Other teammates have gold, earth, fire, wood, and space abilities."

Zhang Ling, feeling parched, drank her glass of juice quickly before continuing, "The gold, earth, and fire ability users are probably regular advanced superpower users. Among them, the space ability user is the weakest, with only storage capacity and no attack skills. Li Man probably intentionally chose a low-level, non-combat space ability user to carry energy stones without being able to escape alone with them."

"Finally, about the wood ability user, I tried several tis to get more information, but Jia Shuyi wouldn’t go into detail. He didn’t seem to bear any personal grudges against this wood ability user, which implies that this person is quite important, so he doesn’t want us learning about them," Zhang Ling noted with serious concern.

"Upgrading with a wood ability is as difficult as with the space ability, but when reaching high levels, it becos stronger in areas with more trees. We are now in a location filled with potential weapons for a wood ability user, so we must be particularly cautious of this person—they could be Li Man’s hidden trump card."
