Chapter 1238 Assassination

The appearance of the shrimp holding the ball reminded Zhou Wen of the shrimp tail ball that Ouyang Lan once treated him to.

The Star Sea Armored Dragon held the jade ball motionless, as if it was dead. Zhou Wen summoned it, but it did not respond to Zhou Wen's call and return to his body.

Seeing the Star Sea Armored Dragon in this state, Zhou Wen simply put it into the Chaos Pearl.

"Anyway, I don't know what the jade ball is used for. If the Star Sea Armored Dragon can evolve once with it, it would be a great deal." Zhou Wen thought to himself that if the Star Sea Armored Dragon could be promoted to the disaster level, he would make a lot of money.

Although the Star Sea Carapace Dragon is not as powerful as the Dragon Turtle, its absolute defense is also a very powerful Wheel of Destiny. If its level is increased, it will also be a very powerful helper.

Zhou Wen also knew that it would not be easy to advance to the natural disaster level.

However, if it can be promoted to the Fear Level, it will be very useful. If the Absolute Defense can be turned on all the time, the defense will be so strong that it should be ranked among the top in the Fear Level.

Zhou Wen looked into the Chaos Orb again and saw that the armored dragon holding the jade ball looked like it was dead. There was still no movement and no special changes. He didn't know whether it was evolving.

Seeing that the situation would not change for a while, Zhou Wen simply ignored it and found a place with a mobile phone signal to see what the current situation was.

Upon seeing this, Zhou Wen was immediately happy.

Liuyun has now become a rat crossing the street, and everyone is shouting at him. All major forces are looking for his whereabouts. Someone even posted a public reward online. Anyone who can provide clues to the whereabouts of the Thief Saint can get an epic companion egg as a reward. If they can lead them to find the Thief Saint himself, they can even get a mythical companion egg.

This is just providing clues, there is no need to take risks yourself, and the reward is already so generous, which shows how great the temptation of the disaster-level companion egg is.

It is estimated that the entire world is looking for Liuyun now. If the Thief Saint is not careful, he will be ruined and may even die.

This was a consequence Zhou Wen had not thought of before, but Liuyun had already been promoted to the Fear Level and was good at space teleportation, so it was not easy to catch him.

As long as he hides in the endless sea of ​​stars, few people will be able to find him.

"When can I learn the Star-Stealing Hand skill from Senior Brother? It's so useful." Zhou Wen was also a little helpless because he couldn't get the Star-Stealing Hand skill crystal.

Even if it can be dropped, the skill level of Star Stealer is not high, and it is not easy to practice it to the level of Liuyun.

At the An family's old house, Yaer was squatting in the garden, lowering her head to watch the ants scurrying through the grass.

"Miss Yaer, the governor asked me to take you to eat something delicious." A man who looked like an officer came to Yaer, squatted down and said to her with a smile.

Yaer ignored the officer and didn't even raise her head, still looking at the ants on the ground.

"Miss Yaer, let's go quickly and don't keep the governor waiting anxiously." The officer urged again.

Yaer stood up at this time and turned to look at the officer.

The officer smiled and said, "The governor has prepared a lot of delicious food for you. Let's go quickly."

"You are lying." Yaer said slowly.

The officer's expression changed slightly, but he immediately returned to normal and said with a smile, "Ms. Yaer, stop joking. The governor is still waiting for you."

Yaer said calmly, "Uncle always brings things over, or takes me there himself. He won't ask others to do it for me, and he certainly won't ask a stranger I don't know to pick me up."

"I'm the governor's staff officer. Adjutant An happened to have something to do today, so he asked me to pick you up." The officer explained.

"That's even more impossible. If you were really sent by the uncle, you should know that the uncle will never rush me. He will wait quietly until I want to go on my own." Yaer said.

The officer's expression turned grim, but he still forced a smile and explained, "I've already said today is a special situation. The governor has an important meeting later, so time is very tight..."

"If that were the case, uncle wouldn't have let you come over. He is the kind of person who is gentle enough to tolerate everything and won't let anyone feel embarrassed for him." Yaer said.

The officer was already a little panicked. He didn't have that much time. While An Tianzuo and An Sheng were out and Ouyang Lan was not at home, he had to take Yaer out. He couldn't wait any longer.

Gritting his teeth, the officer reached out to grab Yaer's arm, trying to take her away by force.

But just as the officer moved his hand, he heard a gunshot, and his arm was shot through, with blood spurting out.

The officer turned around, covering his wound, and his face turned pale.

He saw the slender An Tianzuo standing at the garden gate, wearing a military uniform and a military coat, holding a pistol in his hand, with smoke coming out of the muzzle, and looking at him coldly.

"General...General..." The officer's legs were shaking, as if all his strength was gone at once, and he could hardly stand steadily.

"Why?" An Tianzuo asked the officer.

"General, I'm sorry, I was forced into this. If I hadn't been desperate, I wouldn't have done anything to let you down... Please, for the sake of my having been with you through thick and thin, give me another chance." The officer knelt down with a thud.

"If I spare you, can you survive?" An Tianzuo said expressionlessly.

The officer froze there. If he was forced into a corner, then even if An Tianzuo spared him, he would still die.

If An Tianzuo spared him and he still had a chance to survive, it would mean that he was not forced into a desperate situation.

An Tianzuo walked towards Yaer. When he passed by the officer, he put the gun in his hand in his hand and said lightly, "It's up to you whether you live or die." Then he continued to walk towards Yaer.

The officer raised the gun and pointed it at his head, but the moment he pulled the trigger, he turned the gun and aimed it at An Tianzuo's back.

Bang bang bang!

The officer fired three shots, but the gun did not fire, only the sound of the firing pin, and there was no bullet in the gun.

At this moment, the officer's face was filled with complex expressions of astonishment, confusion, shame, and embarrassment.

An Tianzuo didn't even turn his head, hugged Yaer gently, turned and walked towards the garden gate.

After walking past the officer, An Tianzuo said calmly, "You've followed me for so long, when have you ever seen me let Yaer see blood?"

The officer stood there, his body trembling, his lips quivering, unable to speak. He knew that he had ruined his last chance with his own hands.

After An Tianzuo carried Yaer out of the garden, he covered her ears with his hands wearing black leather gloves. A gunshot was heard in the garden, and then everything returned to calm.

"How many times has this happened this month?" An Tianzuo released his hands that were covering Yaer's ears and asked Ansheng beside him.

An Sheng, standing by, replied with a helpless expression, "This is the eighth time, and it's also the most dangerous. I never thought that even Staff Officer Zhao, whom you personally trained, would be bribed by the enemy and even attempt to attack Ya'er. They really are using every possible means."

"It's time to do something to let them know that I, An Tianzuo, am still alive." An Tianzuo said as he walked while holding Yaer.

"General, just tell me what you want me to do." An Sheng stood up straight, and a terrifying murderous intent flashed across his eyes.

"Don't be so fierce, you'll scare Ya'er." An Tianzuo said with a smile: "Killing is not the goal, nor is it a necessary means. I just want to make them unable to cry."

Good night.
