Chapter 280 Running for You

Chen Xiao'er stayed where she was without moving.

She had no ill will towards Xinnaya, and even felt a little embarrassed: she had just blamed Xinnaya for the driver's stomachache.

She initially thought about stopping the fight, but then thought, "Is this too much? Xinnaya has beaten me more than once!"

Even if the purpose was to get money from the financiers, the damage caused cannot be easily erased.

Since I can't beat you, I'll let Ling and Sister Lan teach you a lesson.

But she suddenly saw the grin on Xinaya's lips. That smile was so bright and completely sincere.

What's wrong with this guy? Does he like being beaten? No, Sister Lan used a metal bat. Could she have been beaten stupid?

Many strange images flashed through Chen Xiao'er's mind. An old man and an old woman with blond hair came over with Xinnaya shouting "Aba Aba" to ask for an explanation, and there were people holding banners behind them.

She swallowed and said in a vague voice, "Sister Lan, Ling, please stop fighting. Beating him silly will cause a lot of trouble. What if someone claims compensation?"

"Claim? Huh?" Lan weighed the baseball bat and swung it with a dashing flourish. "Don't worry, I'm not planning on letting her go back alive. I'll force her to drive first, and then I'll kill her once she reaches her destination."

"Eh? Wait, wait a minute!" Chen Xiao'er gestured for a long time and stammered, "What about the body?"

"I can take charge of burying it." Ling lowered his hands and answered seriously.

"Stop joking like that." Chen Xiao'er tried to stop them weakly, not even bothering to move her feet.

[There shouldn't be any surveillance here, right?]

She suppressed a slightly dangerous thought: No, I can't instigate Sister Lan and Ling to do this. Killing people will lower their bottom line. And...

She glanced at Xinaya's supercar, then at the van with its front end broken after crashing into a tree, and didn't want to give up this great opportunity to change cars.

With this sports car as a relay, we can at least keep chasing until late at night, then rest in the town we arrive at, and continue chasing along the road the next day.

Even if you still can't catch up with the hot air balloon, you can get to a place with people faster and ask the locals about the hot air balloon's movements. The bad guys can't sleep all the time, they always have to come down to eat and sleep.

During the ten seconds that Chen Xiao'er was thinking, the three of them twisted together and fought for several rounds.

Their moves were incredibly fast, none of them displaying the same martial arts mastery you see on TV, one move after another. They all danced like game characters with unlimited stamina, moving with vigor and energy.

Seeing Chen Xiao'er turn her gaze towards them, the three of them slowed down their movements.

Lan took advantage of the situation and put her arms around Xinnaya's neck. Xinnaya grabbed her other arm and pulled hard without any hesitation.

Stay a little further away from them and block Chen Xiao'er tightly first.

Xinnaya paused first. Lan clamped her neck and said to Chen Xiao'e, "Don't worry, I'm not planning on killing you right now. We're still short of a driver. After all, someone must be very well behaved lately. He's a little puppy who signed a contract, right?"

"Who will be your driver?" Xinnaya slapped Lan's hand away in disgust, preventing her from rubbing her hair with her claws.

Chen Xiao'er walked to the side of the sports car and twitched her lips weakly: "We would like to borrow your car, is that okay?"

"Okay, get in." As soon as the words fell, Xinnaya had already sat back in the driver's seat, with the passenger door wide open.

[You must express your affection for her and your willingness to help her in a calm but powerful way.]

Xinnaya supported the steering wheel with one hand.

She followed the advice on the internet, striking a pose that seemed natural but had actually been practiced countless times, and said with emotion, "For you, I even bought an extended-length sports car."

"For you, I always use energy to increase my carrying capacity."

Who told you to always bring those annoying humans along? I have to leave enough room in the back for them. Humph, there's just one Lan and one Apostle, so you two should just sit in the back and get out of here.

"Oh, thank you."

Your voice is really flat, but you actually said thank you to me? That's really good progress.

The corners of Xinnaya's mouth rose wildly, and then fell down with a click after hearing the movement behind her: Wait, Chen Xiao'er, why are you sitting in the back row?

She turned her head suddenly and her eyes met Chen Xiao'er's.

The human girl tilted her head innocently, and after a few seconds, she slowly relaxed the corners of her mouth. Her eyes were red, as if to say, "Isn't it possible?"

"Hold on tight," Sinaya instructed dryly, straightening herself up again.

Let’s sit in the back row, so Chen Xiao’er can admire my graceful figure all the way.

rustle.

The devil was just thinking about something beautiful when a shadow suddenly fell beside her. She belatedly realized something: Chen Xiao'er was sitting behind me, so who was sitting next to me?

Thump thump thump.

Lan glanced at her sideways, and very pretentiously pushed the sunglasses back onto his face, expressing his attitude of "I don't want to see you" with practical actions.

Uh, why Lan? Never mind, the Apostle is also a joker. With these two valuables in the car, it's better to replace it with someone else.

Sinaya gasped and stepped on the accelerator. The sports car roared through the rows of trees on the roadside, kicking up a dark purple cloud of dust.

At the same time, meteors in the sky continued to crash towards the ground. They fell into the zero-effect range and then disappeared like sugar balls melting into coffee.

The meteor was attracted into this bottomless black hole.

Some of the energy was directly poured into the abyss through the strange connection between Lan and the abyss, while some of the energy swirled around Chen Xiao'er and her companions endlessly like an electric circle, continuously nourishing their bodies.

Even the train lying on the platform couldn't help but open its mouth and eat a big meal while suffering from indigestion: Are you kidding me? I have to wait for thousands of years to miss the great opportunity for the birth of the new world?

The evening breeze blew against her face, ruffling Chen Xiao'er's hair. She held Ling's hand tightly, tilted her head to look up at the sky, and took a deep breath in the brilliant light.

The night sky wasn't completely black. Her cheeks were lit up by the overly bright starlight and fireworks. The school was still setting off fireworks. Even the commercial district was lit up in a white night by the twinkling lights.

It looked like everyone was celebrating together. A false smile appeared on her face, then quickly dropped.

Chen Xiao'er looked up. In her impression, meteors could not light up the night sky like fireworks.

Even with a massive meteor shower, not many stars fall in an hour. Furthermore, the sky is so vast that even tiny stars falling on it are barely noticeable, requiring careful observation to spot.

But today is different. It seems that even the dust in the air is shining with moving brilliance.

One, two, three, four... The falling meteors are not only as numerous as children just out of school, but each one is so bright.

They didn't seem to be running far away, their tails dragging, but rather flying towards her head on. The approaching points of light grew larger and brighter, turning from golden dots into vast masses of pure white.

Fortunately, the probability of being hit in the face by a meteor was still too low. As expected, they would extinguish when they became bright enough and fall into the distance where she could not see.

"Ling, actually...actually I really want to watch the meteor shower with everyone." Chen Xiao'er's voice was hoarse, and the tears in the corners of her eyes fell as soon as she opened her mouth.

Ling softly put his arm around her shoulders and let her lover lie in his arms. She whispered softly, "There will be another chance in the future."

"Is there really still a chance?" But Zheng Xiuli has already...

Chen Xiao'er bit her lips, tears streaming down her face, causing her eyes to sting.

"Really, I promise."

The scene of the apostles' cluster training and coordinated combat flashed through Zero's mind. Although her memory was partially lost, the most important combat data was still retained.

When the time comes, I just need to hold a glowing wonder and fly into the sky. I don’t know how I can convince those people to fly with me.

...Use a shared memory pool to influence their emotions?

Chen Xiao'er was so exhausted that her crying gradually stopped. She poked her head out of Ling's arms like a wronged kitten and looked at the twinkling stars in the sky.

"Oh, at least, at least I have you guys with me..." Her voice was weak but still firm. The two of them slowly tightened their clasped fingers and gradually clasped them together.

The corners of Xiao'er's eyes are swollen, it must be very painful.

Ling leaned over slightly and kissed away her slightly sour tears. The girl in his arms froze for a moment, and her body suddenly moved.

Chen Xiao'er wiped her lips and turned her face away, then raised her head again after a brief separation.

The soft lips touched gently, and the strength suddenly deepened after a few seconds.

Pain, worry, regret, sadness... a chaotic and overwhelming feeling urged the girl to open her arms and tightly wrap them around her lover's neck. She wanted to soothe her mind with passion, and let her body continue to move forward under the coaxing.

When Xinnaya heard "you guys", she smiled and wanted to say a few words to Chen Xiao'er, but her smile disappeared as soon as she turned around.

"Hey, you guys..."

Bang!

Lan knocked her head hard: "If you don't want to look, don't look."

"Who wants to see it?!" Xinnaya turned back and continued driving in anger, almost rubbing the steering wheel to burn.

The positive emotions bubbling in the car catalyzed the surrounding energy. The cement road surface became smoother and smoother, transforming into a long highway.

Lan leaned against the car mat and said slowly, "Remember to stop and find a hotel after driving for a few hours."

"Looking for shit!" Xinnaya gritted her teeth.

The driver's intense negative emotions propelled the sports car forward. The tires hissed, emitting white smoke, and then it whizzed away like a phantom.

If there were a traffic police at that time, they would definitely fine it for flying too low.

......

The sports car on the screen gradually disappeared into the distance, and the observer in the seat muttered to himself, "So that inconspicuous purple light is the Devil Hunter."

The large screen in the center flickered, a dazzling, chaotic backdrop of interwoven meteor showers like fireworks. Aside from a clear area around Chen Xiao'er, the rest of the area was filled with a dazzling, chaotic flow of energy.

[Guanghui: Energy flow is disrupted, and I've temporarily lost contact with Chen Xiao'er. I'll continue to pay attention.]

Guanghui was just giving a routine report, and the observers had no intention of disturbing the god.

After about half an hour, the sequence of beings reached an agreement with the expert group.

An announcement flashed across the screen: "The First and Third Knights are dispatched. Follow Chen Xiao'er at a distance as instructed."

They didn't list any specific orders, but most of them would focus on protection first. As for whether there would be any changes later... everyone could see that Despair had suffered a series of heavy blows and was at the end of its strength. It would be great if they could find a chance to obtain such a powerful power.

[The following is a list of bishops participating in this action...]

The archivist was writing down the names of about a dozen people as he read the notice... His pen paused when he wrote down Milo.

There seems to be a strange... sense of incongruity.

Huh? I'm in a daze.

The recorder shook his head after a few seconds and continued writing.

【Milo】?

Bishop Milo has always been the sole person in charge of the Apostle Project, and she indeed participates in every mission related to Chen Xiao'er.
