"What...what's going on?!" Fang Yong shouted in fear amidst the fierce gunfire, "Who is attacking us?!"

"Get down!" Song Shuye pushed Fang Yong's shaking head down hard. "Are you trying to kill yourself?!"

Fang Yong: "But... Lin Bing and the others..."

They were still outside before the gunshot!

Song Shuye's expression changed again and again when he heard this, and finally he said in a pained voice: "...Don't think about them, it's important to protect yourself!"

Fortunately, the jeep they were riding in seemed to have bulletproof glass, and it still held up tenaciously even under such a dense rain of bullets. Song Shuye struggled to hold the car door open and raised his voice to the other two, "Don't go out! Get out of this wave first!"

"No," Eve said, "You can't stay in there. Get ready to jump out of the car."

Song Shuye was stunned: "What..."

“Bang!”

The next second, a muffled sound suddenly came from above my head!

"!!!" Fang Yong opened his mouth wide, staring in shock at the car roof that had almost collapsed in half, and stammered, "This...this...!"

Eve: "Get out!"

As her last word fell in the air, Qi picked up Eve by the waist, and Shadow Tail rolled up the other two. He kicked the car door open and rushed out of the car with the three of them!

"boom--!"

As the four of them got out of the car, they heard a loud noise behind them. They subconsciously turned around and saw several flames rising from the ground, instantly engulfing the entire jeep!

"Not good!" Song Shuye reacted, "Run!"

Without Yingwei dragging them anymore, he and Fang Yong took the initiative to run out. Eve didn't understand what was happening. The arm around her waist suddenly tightened. She looked up. Qi's arm passed under her knees and picked her up sideways. He pointed his toes and rushed out like a gust of wind.

“Bang!!!!”

A huge explosion sounded behind them, and a heat wave rushed towards the four people like a tidal wave. Everything it passed was engulfed in boiling flames. If they had not run fast, they would have been buried in the sea of ​​fire!

"Tsk, he's not strong, but he runs pretty fast?"

The four of them stopped in shock and heard an unfamiliar voice with a hint of sarcasm.

They subconsciously turned around and saw a woman walking out from under a lamppost on the side of the road. She was thin, about 30 years old, and her slender eyes stared at the four people with malicious intent.

Fang Yong was shocked: "Her...her skin...?!"

The woman's skin exposed outside her clothes was covered with flame-like tattoos, which were illuminated by the fire behind her and looked like star-like lights, as if they were burning on her skin.

Eve asked directly: "Who are you?"

The woman was surprisingly cooperative: "I am affiliated with the Queen Bee Headquarters, Yan Yan, a Class A psychic, and one of the twelve cadres."

"Cadres?!" Several people were shocked.

Why would Queen Bee's cadres appear here and suddenly attack them?!

"No..." Song Shuye suddenly remembered something and turned to look at the other car, "Lin Bing!"

His breath suddenly hitched.

Lin Bing was lying on his back on the ground, his body full of bullet holes, and some shiny things were scattered around him. Song Shuye looked at them slowly for a while before realizing that they were broken icicles.

Yan Yan hummed and commented, "His reaction is quite fast, but it's a pity that his ability is too weak. Even if he defends, it's useless."

"That's right," another loud voice sounded, and a towering man walked out from Yan Yan's side. "With his weak ability, he's not even enough to take a row of my bullets."

Eve looked at the man coldly. He had two guns attached below his arms. There was no gap between the iron-gray gun bodies and his arms. At first glance, it looked like they grew directly from his body.

The man noticed Eve was watching him and raised his arm ostentatiously.

"Who is that?" she asked Fang Yong softly.

Judging from Fang Yong's expression, he didn't seem to recognize the man either and shook his head in embarrassment, but Song Shuye's face suddenly turned pale.

"Why is he here?!"

Fang Yong asked: "Do you know him?"

"...Tie Feishi," Song Shuye said in a deep voice with a pale face, "He is also one of the twelve cadres. Last year, his ability was promoted to S-level. His strength... is on par with Chang Qingfeng."

Eve's gaze lingered on Tie Feishi's arm for a moment, thinking that the overwhelming barrage of bullets just now must have come from his hand.

"Three cadres?" Fang Yong's face also began to turn green, "Why are there three cadres?" And two of them attacked them!

Song Shuye: "...Wait, where's Shoufeng?!"

The four of them looked around hurriedly, but apart from Lin Bing's body, Shoufeng was nowhere to be found.

"That little girl?" Yan Yan tossed her hair back and smiled. "Her reaction was remarkable. She noticed something was wrong before the flying stone attacked and ran away in an instant. But..." She looked at Lin Bing's body meaningfully. "She's so cold-blooded despite her young age. She abandoned her companions without a second's hesitation."

"You..." Fang Yong said angrily, "If you hadn't launched the attack, how would Lin Bing have died?!" He was actually being sarcastic and sarcastic towards Shou Feng?!

"Fang Yong," Song Shuye held his arm and whispered, "Don't be impulsive."

Fang Yong looked at him angrily: "I..."

Song Shuye gave him a warning look. Even if these two people killed Lin Bing, they could not blame Tie Feishi and Yan Yan - both of them were S-level psychics, and their power was far above theirs. If they rashly angered the other party, they would only suffer.

Fang Yong also understood the crux of the matter and could only unwillingly keep his mouth shut. Song Shuye then turned around and tried to keep his tone calm as he said to Yan Yan, "We are all members of the Queen Bee. Why are you attacking us? Is there some misunderstanding here?"

"Misunderstanding?" Upon hearing this, Tie Feishi burst into laughter. "What kind of misunderstanding could there be? I'm going to kill you!"

Song Shuye: "What..."

"Idiots!" Suddenly, Bai Shuichuan's voice rang out. The young man leaned against the car window and shouted at them angrily and anxiously, "Don't try to reason with these people! In their eyes, human life is nothing! Run while you still have a chance to live!"

"Oh, Xiaobai is here too," Yan Yan laughed. "I haven't seen you for more than half a month. Your temper has gotten worse."

"Get out of here! Bitch!" Bai Shuichuan saw her and his eyes were filled with even more anger. "Don't make such a disgusting face. Who wants to follow you..."

“Bang!”

Before he could finish, he was suddenly slapped hard in the face.

"Kid, watch your words," Yu Kui said coldly. The fake smile on his face had been peeled off, revealing the coldness underneath. "I have tolerated you for a long time in the hospital. If you don't want to suffer, shut up now."

Bai Shuichuan's head was knocked sideways, and a shocking redness and swelling appeared on his fair skin. He turned his head angrily and glared at Yu Kui with hatred.

Yu Kui said nothing and slapped him again.

"You're crazy!" Fang Yong said in disbelief, "Stop it! He's still a child!"

"Instead of caring about others, you might as well think about yourself first!"

Yan Yan's wild laughter rang in his ears. Before Fang Yong could come to his senses, he was suddenly pushed away by Eve: "Get out of the way!"

"boom--!"

A thick pillar of fire suddenly erupted from where he had been standing. Fang Yong rolled three times on the ground and stood up in a panic. His nose and mouth were filled with dust from swallowing. "Cough... cough cough!"

Eve shouted, "Seven!"

Qi pushed the ground hard, and the whole person rose into the air like a black eagle. The shadow tail pierced the air and shot towards Yan Yan!

Yan Yan was a little surprised: "What a fast speed."

Flames shot out from her hands, and with the help of the jet force of the flames, she dodged to the side, brushing past Qi's shadow tail. She twisted her body quickly in the air, and another flame sprayed towards Qi!

Faced with the fierce flames, the Seventh Company did not even try to dodge. Instead, they quickly retracted their shadow tails and swung them at the flames like a knife. The overwhelming heat wave was actually broken in half and gradually dissipated in the air.

"Yan Yan, what are you doing?!" Tie Feishi roared, "Don't destroy the mission target!"

Upon hearing this, Eve, who was originally retreating, paused.

“Mission objective”?

She subconsciously looked at Bai Shuichuan - wasn't he the target of this mission?

Bai Shuichuan happened to look over at the same time. He noticed Eve's gaze and gestured to her anxiously:

“Run!”

Eve was stunned for a moment. Fang Yong ran over and grabbed her arm. "What are you daydreaming about? Come on!"

"Wait," Eve said, "Why did they attack us? Did Yu Kui inform them to ambush here?"

"...Brother!" Fang Yong was so anxious that he almost cried. "Your life is about to end, why are you still hesitating? Run!"

"He's right."

As the man's rough voice sounded in her ears, Eve felt Fang Yong's hand on her arm stiffen little by little.

She turned around and met Tie Feishi's grinning face.

Tie Feishi's gaze stayed on her face for a moment, but then quickly turned to Fang Yong.

"Of course, she'll be fine," he said to Fang Yong with a malicious glint in his eyes, "--the only one who will die is you."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a "click" sound, and the two guns in Tie Feishi's hands were raised, and the black muzzles were pressed against Fang Yong's head.

“Go to hell!”

The moment before he pulled the trigger, Eve kicked Fang Yong away and raised her arms, holding Tie Feishi's guns tightly. She turned her head and said quickly, "Go to Lin Bing!"

"Eve!" Fang Yongcai stood up in a panic, and was stunned again when he heard her words, "...What?"

"Go!" With Tie Feishi behind her, Eve couldn't speak too openly, so she could only say vaguely, "There's no blood around him."

Although he didn't understand Eve's intention, Fang Yong trusted Eve not to harm him, so he immediately turned around and ran towards Lin Bing's body.

Before Eve could catch her breath, she was suddenly hit by a huge force from below, and was thrown to the ground. Before she could get up, a foot pressed down on her body.

Tie Feishi looked down at her condescendingly: "You are quite loyal, little girl. You are actually thinking of helping your companions. Are you relying on the fact that I won't kill you?"

Eve tilted her head, her green eyes looking straight at him through her messy hair.

"So," even though Tie Feishi was increasing his strength, and Eve's hands were already turning a suffocating red, she seemed to be completely unaware of it, staring at Tie Feishi intently, "Does this mean that—we... Qi and I have a special role to play in you?"

In the last few seconds, she suddenly figured out something.

For example, why did Bai Shuichuan warn Yu Kui that "he had already set his sights on them".

For example, why would Tie Feishi and Yan Yan ambush on the road they had to pass?

For example, why did they try to clean up Lin Bing and others, but not Eve and Qi?

Combined with Bai Shuichuan's special abilities, some things have gradually become clear.

"You guys," Eve thought for a moment and changed her address, "Queen Bee is searching for people with special abilities all over the place, and regardless of their wishes, she's rounding them up and bringing them back to Black City?"

And judging by their practice of killing people to silence them, this matter was probably carried out in secret.

Tie Feishi looked surprised.

"Very perceptive," he said, looking Eve up and down. "Did Bai Shuichuan tell you that?"

Eve said, "He didn't say anything."

"Hmph," Tie Feishi snorted coldly, "It doesn't matter even if you know. We are three S-level superpowers. If you don't want to suffer, just go back with us obediently."

"As for your companion," his malicious gaze spread like a shadow towards Fang Yong in the distance, "I'm sorry, in order to prevent the news from leaking... he must die--!"

As Tie Feishi roared out the last word, he suddenly raised the two guns on his arms, and a series of bullets formed a dense net and flew towards Fang Yong's head!

Fang Yong screamed in fright, but there was no shelter around him and no place to hide. The only thing he could do was hold Lin Bing's body tightly and look at the incoming bullets in despair.

"Hahahaha!" Tie Feishi laughed wildly, "Where can you hide?! Whoever I, Tie Feishi, want to kill will never escape..."

He saw Eve's expression and suddenly stopped.

Eve stood behind Tie Feishi, looking at Fang Yong quietly. For some reason, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, forming an upward arc.

"What a coincidence," she said softly, "The person I want to protect, no one can kill him."

Just as he finished speaking, a large shadow suddenly descended over their heads. Tie Feishi subconsciously raised his head, and two thick shadow tails accompanied by a sharp wind slashed down at him!

Tie Feishi: “!”

In a hurry, he jumped aside. Qi Yi failed to hit him and wanted to rush over to protect his master, but Yan Yan roared: "Boy! Watch out for yourself!"

She suddenly spewed out a burst of fire, instantly splitting the venue into two, creating an insurmountable barrier between Qi and Eve.

Eve said to Qi through the wall of fire: "It's okay, you don't have to come over, just get rid of her quickly."

Yan Yan almost laughed out loud: "Little girl, do you know who you are talking to?!"

What a joke! She's an S-rank fire-type esper, one of the top twelve cadres in terms of strength. She was just careless for a moment, allowing that guy to take advantage of her opportunity...

Suddenly, Yan Yan seemed to realize something and turned around abruptly.

——Qi stared at her coldly, the darkness in his eyes almost becoming a reality, drowning her in the bottomless abyss.

Yan Yan couldn't help but shudder and said in shock: "You..."

She had been through hundreds of battles and had escaped death countless times, which had already trained Yan Yan to have a sixth sense that could detect danger in time. But now, facing the gloomy black-haired young man, her mind was screaming wildly:

You'll die! You'll die!

Yan Yan swallowed and looked at Qi in horror.

"you……"

She had just opened her mouth when the young man's figure disappeared in an instant. Yan Yan was stunned for a moment, and suddenly had a premonition of something. She was about to release fire, but before she could take action, she was suddenly hit hard on the head!

——Seven kicked her in the head.

"...Cough!" Yan Yan staggered back. Qi's kick almost shattered her skull. A loud roar echoed in her ears and her mouth was full of blood. She almost lost her balance and swayed, her knees hitting the ground heavily.

The flame that failed to be released in time had already died halfway. Qi turned his head slightly and easily avoided a few scattered sparks.

Yan Yan swallowed a mouthful of blood with difficulty, feeling panic and fear in his heart.

What a fast speed!

She had no idea when he moved or when he attacked!

...will die.

The huge fear gripped Yan Yan's neck, making it difficult for her to breathe. She stared at Qi in horror. It was the first time she had such a strong premonition.

...She will die!

***

At the same time, on the other side of the fire wall.

The bullets that Tie Feishi had just fired were scattered by Qi Yi's attack. Fang Yong escaped the disaster and knelt on the ground with a look of luck on his face.

"Humph," Tie Feishi sneered, "shit luck."

But so what? At worst, he could just strike again. The black-haired young man had already been stopped by Yan Yan, so he probably couldn't escape.

Thinking of this, he raised his arms again, and thousands of bullets flew at Fang Yong in an instant!

But just when the bullet was about to hit Fang Yong, a piece of solid ice suddenly rose from the ground and blocked all the bullets!

Tie Feishi was stunned, while Fang Yong shouted in surprise: "Lin Bing! You are not dead?!"

Lin Bing, who had been lying there in a state of rage, slowly stood up. He rubbed his chin, spat out a mouthful of blood, and said irritably, "Shut up."

"You..." Tie Feishi couldn't believe his eyes, "Didn't you already..."

"Dead?" Lin Bing sneered, "Excuse me, but you're too confident in your abilities, aren't you?"

When getting off the car, Shoufeng realized something was wrong and had informed him in advance, but due to time constraints, Lin Bing was unable to return to the car and had to let Shoufeng escape alone.

He pretended to be shot, but actually covered his body with a thin but solid layer of ice for protection. Fortunately, the bullets were not strong enough to break through Lin Bing's ice layer. He pretended to be dead until Fang Yong escaped.

It was not until this moment that Fang Yong understood the meaning of Eve's words just now.

Lin Bing was not shot, so the area around him was clean and there was not a drop of blood.

Fang Yong also escaped because of this.

"You fucking bitch!" Tie Feishi cursed angrily when he realized he had fallen into a trap. "How dare you play tricks on me?! Do you really want to die?!"

He suddenly swung a punch at Eve, who was unable to dodge and was knocked to the ground. Tie Feishi grabbed Eve's neck and lifted her up with one hand.

Eve: “…Ahem!”

"Eve!" Fang Yong shouted in panic.

"Don't go over there!" Seeing him about to move, Lin Bing quickly grabbed him, "Idiot! Can you help? Run away!"

"But..." Fang Yong said anxiously, "Eve will be strangled to death by him!"

Tie Feishi used great strength, and Eve's fair neck had been pinched red, but he was still reducing his strength, as if he was going to strangle Eve's neck directly!

Eve opened her mouth wide, breathing hard while trying to pry Tie Feishi's hands open.

"Humph, you think I don't dare to kill you?" Tie Feishi laughed sinisterly, "Don't think that just because you have special abilities, you're a big shot. There are a lot of people like you in the organization. Anyone with less strength will only be thrown into the laboratory..."

He suddenly stopped.

From his perspective, he could see that the corners of Eve's mouth curved into a distinct arc.

——She is laughing.

Even though the skin on her neck turned a suffocating red and her cervical vertebrae made crackling sounds, she lowered her eyebrows, with a faint smile on her face, and looked at Tie Feishi indifferently.

There seemed to be a fire burning in those green eyes. Once you looked into them deeply, you would be doomed.

Tie Feishi was secretly shocked: "You..."

"So," Eve began. Due to suffocation, her voice was extremely low and soft, but every word still fell into Tie Feishi's ears clearly. "You captured us and wanted to conduct experiments on us?"

The iron flew and the stone froze.

"Can you tell me - what the experiment is?" Eve tilted her head slightly, her eyebrows curved.

She was smiling, but the smile did not reach her eyes. Beneath her delicate eyebrows and eyes, there was a hint of hostility that could not be ignored, like the undercurrent under the floating ice. If you are not careful, you will be dragged into the deep sea.

Tie Feishi looked at her with fear.

...This person cannot stay.

No matter what Yu Kui wrote in the report he sent to the headquarters, Tie Feishi had already drawn his conclusion after only a few meetings.

This woman is a tough one, too smart and too dangerous. If we covet her special abilities and rashly bring her back to headquarters, who knows what kind of trouble will be caused.

In order to eliminate hidden dangers, it is better to...

Kill her right here!

A fierce light flashed in Tie Feishi's eyes. He had originally reserved some strength, but now he threw away his worries and tightened his grip suddenly. Judging from his posture, he left no room for maneuver!

Fang Yong exclaimed, "Eve!"

Lin Bing clasped his palms together, and several sharp arrows made of solid ice floated into the air and suddenly shot towards Tie Feishi. The latter snorted and laughed, and actually lifted up Eve and used her as a shield!

"...Damn it!" Lin Bing waved his hand quickly, and the ice arrow stopped just in front of Eve.

"Why did you stop?" Tie Feishi asked, "If you don't attack, then I will!"

He let out a long roar towards the sky, raised his empty left arm high, and instantly thousands of bullets were fired at Lin Bing and Fang Yong!

"run!"

Lin Bing pushed Fang Yong away and stomped the ground hard. Several ice screens rose from the ground to block the bullets.

Taking advantage of the moment to catch his breath, he turned his head, and Eve just raised her head. Their eyes met in the air. Eve's neck was still clamped by the iron flying stone, but Lin Bing was slightly stunned. The next second, he suddenly raised his arm, and a barrier turned into an ice spike, stabbing fiercely at the iron flying stone!

"Idiot!" Tie Feishi didn't expect that he would not change his bad habits. He laughed in anger, "Don't you want her life anymore?!"

Lin Bing gritted his teeth but did not change direction. The speed of the ice spike did not slow down at all. In just a blink of an eye, it arrived in front of Eve and went straight through her chest!
