Chapter 144

…

"Little idiot, this time it's up to you."

Mu Jiao was enveloped in a transparent protective ball, looking dizzy as she watched the "snake-faced man" in front of her with his mouth opening and closing, a somewhat "sinister" smile on his face.

This time she heard clearly what the other person said, but before she could understand what the man meant, the next second, the world spun around and she was thrown out of the mecha cabin.

As soon as she left the warehouse, a huge mechanical claw attacked her. Mu Jiao instinctively closed her eyes tightly...

The mechanical claw stopped above the protective ball wrapped around Mu Jiao and did not move.

Fortunately, she wasn't going to be beaten to death. Mu Jiao heaved a sigh of relief. She didn't want to die again.

The mechanical claw lifted the protruding hole above the protective ball and slowly rose up. The protective ball containing Mu Jiao was then firmly hung on the mechanical claw.

That's right, it was hooked. The slightest movement of the mechanical claw would cause the protective ball to sway non-stop. This was simply adding insult to injury for Mu Jiao, who was already dizzy. Not only did she feel even more dizzy, but she also didn't know if her head couldn't handle this level of dizziness at all, as it began to swell and ache...

When the mechanical claws finally stopped moving, Mu Jiao forced herself to open her eyes, swallowing the headache, to observe the surroundings. As the mecha's dim light blurred, she saw two mechas not far away, clearly restrained, moving cautiously, not daring to attack. Inwardly, Mu Jiao cursed "Snake Man" a thousand times. Damn "Snake Man," he was using her as a bargaining chip to threaten Brother Qi and Yin Jiuyuan!

The mechanical claw was raised high. Huo Qi and Yin Jiuyuan, who were about to attack again, saw the person hanging on the mechanical claw almost at the same time, and then they had to stop the attack.

"Let him go, and I'll let you go." Yin Jiuyuan looked at the person with frowning brows in the protective ball, broke the deadlock first and spoke to Jing Li.

"Chief Yin, are you kidding me? I think you should understand better than me. Ever since you withdrew your men from this area, the initiative has been out of your hands. Otherwise, you can just take action now, one particle cannon, bang - I will disappear from your sight, but... I'm afraid you won't be willing to let this little idiot hanging on my mecha be buried with me." Jing Li sneered and replied in a somewhat indifferent tone.

Yin Jiuyuan listened to the other party's provocative words, his eyes fixed on Mu Jiao, whose eyes were misty in the protective ball. His heart trembled violently, his thin lips were tightly pursed, and he did not answer Jing Li's words.

If he hadn't seen the person before, Yin Jiuyuan could still harden his heart and completely resolve this problem, just like he had ordered during the negotiation. But now, seeing that little thing...

The other party was right. He really couldn't...

Yin Jiuyuan's silence also made Jing Li feel relieved. He had made the right bet. He had been keeping a close eye on this little idiot since Yin Jiuyuan brought him back. Yin Jiuyuan had a special way of treating this little idiot.

I'd said it was ruthless before, but the truth is, I still couldn't bear to let this little idiot go. I wouldn't even go so far as to violate my principles...

As an undercover agent who had been lurking on Han'e Star for so many years and had infiltrated the enemy, Jing Li had a better idea of ​​what kind of person Yin Jiuyuan was. This young leader always put the interests of the orcs as his highest goal, and he was quite decisive and principled in doing things.

But this time, I broke the rules for this little idiot.

In Jing Li's opinion, if they could deal with Yin Jiuyuan, Huo Qi Rex would not be a threat. After the series of battles, if they could delay for a while, the Second Prince's body would not be able to withstand it. The power of genetic collapse disorder was not just talk.

In the previous fight, the opponent's natural strength was clearly unstable, fluctuating between strong and weak, clearly due to his genetic breakdown disorder. This was also the reason why he couldn't defeat the Second Prince, yet was able to fight under him for so long. Wasn't it because of his genetic breakdown disorder and the other party's concern for the little fool?

At hundreds of thousands of meters in the sky, despite the low winds in the cumulus clouds, the temperature was incredibly low. The three mechas were now in a standoff. Huo Qi hadn't participated in Yin Jiuyuan's conversation with Jing Li, remaining silent.

Now the three stations didn't make any moves, just standing there in a stalemate...

The current situation is a quiet and long physical and mental torture for Mu Jiao who is in the protective ball.

Needless to say, she felt physically cold. Although the protective ball had a certain warming effect, it was much lower than the temperature in the warehouse. She now felt as if she had suddenly arrived in the Arctic from a warm spring place. It would have been better if she had not enjoyed the warmth in the warehouse, but she had enjoyed it, and this feeling was really worse than staying in an ice cave.

In addition to this, she was more worried about Brother Qi's physical condition. She recognized the dark gray mecha that emitted a faint light in the dark as Brother Qi's "Kong" at a glance. When she was on Chengtong Star, she was curious about what the advanced biological mecha looked like, so Brother Qi personally summoned his mecha for her to admire.

During that time, she spent her free time admiring the various mechas in the collection. Then, the appearance of "Kong" instantly eclipsed all the other "treasures" she had seen. Its streamlined design and majestic, dark gray body weren't at all dull, but rather imbued with a unique, high-end feel. The entire mecha exuded a unique aura that was meant to be admired from afar, not touched.

Therefore, when she saw "empty", even though the surroundings were dim, Mu Jiao recognized it immediately. However, she was not happy at all, but was very worried.

A biological mecha can only be driven by its owner, so the person driving "Kong" is Brother Qi himself.

Brother Keqi suffers from gene collapse disorder. Mu Jiao knows about this disease as she has been studying it for some time. People with gene collapse disorder cannot drive mechas, otherwise there is a risk of sudden death. They are also not allowed to use their innate powers, otherwise it will induce the disease and the risk of sudden death will be even greater.

Brother Qi not only drove the mecha himself, he even used his innate power to fight with the "snake man". He was risking his own life to save her.

As time ticked by, Mu Jiao grew increasingly anxious. The longer she delayed, the more likely Brother Qi would suffer a relapse. This wasn't the situation she wanted to see, but now, she could only fret. The protective ball was wobbling, and it was difficult for her to even stand. She had no other options. Mu Jiao felt a wave of frustration.

"Jiaojiao, Jiaojiao, can you hear me?"

"Brother Qi, is that you? Am I hallucinating?" Just when Mu Jiao was feeling depressed, she suddenly heard Huo Qi's voice echoing in her mind.
