"What did you say?" Upon hearing this, Old Ji's pupils contracted.
"This is impossible!" Before Elder Ji could speak, the chief referee beside him said solemnly, "The dimensional barrier did not send out any alarms, and the dimensional lock given by the Icebreaker has not been broken!"
Linnaeus said, "But what if the other party has the key to the dimensional lock?"
"..." Old Ji raised an eyebrow: "Then unless there is a traitor within the Night's Watch, but that's impossible."
“But the reality is that this really did happen,” Linnaeus said.
Old Ji paused for a moment, then asked him in return, "Then how did you know about this?"
Lin Nai raised his hand and pressed down on the head of the girl next to him: "Because this girl sensed her people."
"Hmm..." Ye Wan'er glanced timidly at Old Ji and nodded gently.
Old Ji looked at her, paused, and said, "This child is even more socially awkward than I imagined..."
Lin Nai: "It's much better now. When she first came, it was even worse than it is now."
"..." Elder Ji said, "Alright, I understand." Then, stroking his beard, he pondered, "A demonic angel of the Myriad Manifestations level... this is no easy task..."
Night bowed slightly and said apologetically, "I'm so sorry to have caused you this trouble... Why don't you try to get me out of here quietly? The other party came for me, and if they find out I'm gone, they won't stay here."
“That won’t do.” Old Ji looked at her. “After all, our Yan Kingdom received benefits from Breaking the Ice, so we still have an obligation to ensure your safety.”
Sending Ye Wan'er away at this time would be tantamount to handing her over to the enemy.
The major companies of the Black Angel Civilization are currently embroiled in a civil war that is escalating rapidly.
Yan Kingdom has already made its stance clear, siding with Po Bing and the others.
This is tantamount to offending the other major companies to the death.
If we hand over the night, we'll please neither side.
Well, once this is over, I'll definitely have to extort a huge sum of money from Po Bing for his hard work...
"How about this," Old Ji said to the girl, "we'll arrange a safe place for you to hide first."
The girl gently shook her head: "For a Black Angel of the Myriad Realms level, with the level of human technology, there is no place that can escape their search."
"Is that so? That's going to be difficult..." Old Ji felt it was a bit tricky.
“Perhaps there is another way,” Linnaeus said.
"What method?" Old Ji asked.
"Take down this invading All-Encompassing Black Angel," Linna said.
Elder Ji: "...Kid, are you still half asleep? Do you even know what the Myriad Manifestations level is?"
“As long as you follow my instructions, it’s possible,” Linna said calmly.
Upon hearing this, everyone in the Sky Eye Room was stunned for a moment, and then many of them couldn't help but chuckle.
Elder Ji was somewhat amused and exasperated: "Lin Nai, I admit you are a rare genius. Judging from the previous matches, you are quite capable in both strength and strategy, and have absolute potential. However, matches do not fully represent real combat. How many battles have you experienced? Not even once, right? Even in high-level dimensional missions, how many times have you experienced them? Your experience in major battles is still too lacking, and this is not something that genius can make up for."
Linnai saw that the other leaders, referees, and soldiers in the Sky Eye Room all had basically the same expression.
That's the expression on the face of someone in a superior position when they see a young person making arrogant and frivolous remarks.
Lin Nai sighed inwardly.
I knew this would happen.
But actually it is.
For these seasoned leaders, the responsibility on their shoulders is immense. How could they easily entrust such important command to a newcomer who has never even been on a plane of combat?
Lin Nai knew very well that if he were in Ji Lao's position, he wouldn't have done this either.
So we can't blame Professor Ji.
Linnai, of course, could not reveal his trump card to them.
“Well, there’s nothing I can do about that then.” Lin Nai shrugged. “If you regret it, feel free to contact me anytime.”
Professor Ji: "???"
Didn't I say that last time?
"Wan'er, let's go." Lin Nai glanced at Wan'er, then turned and left.
At night, Er bowed to Ji Lao again, then turned and jogged to catch up with Lin Nai.
"Young people these days are getting more and more arrogant." A middle-aged leader rubbed his receding hairline: "Good heavens, a freshman actually thinks he can boss us around?"
Mr. Ji remained silent, lost in thought, seemingly pondering something.
......
The sky gradually darkened.
Linnai walked along the road with Ye Wan'er.
“It seems that relying on them won’t work.” Linnaeus paused for a moment before saying, “We can only rely on ourselves.”
In fact, Lin Nai never really expected that Elder Ji and the others would listen to him from the very beginning.
So this time, my purpose in going to see Professor Ji was simply to give him a heads-up.
Looking at Lin Nai's handsome profile, Ye'er cautiously said, "How about..."
Linna shook her head, interrupting her: "No."
Night Child: "..."
"I...I haven't finished speaking yet..." the girl protested weakly.
“I know what you’re trying to say,” Linna said. “So you’d better not say anything.”
Night Child: "..."
"Just listen to me obediently." Lin Nai placed her hand on the girl's head and vigorously ruffled her hair. "Perfect, let me test how well you, this weapon of war, work."
The girl's cheeks flushed: "Then... what do I need to do?"
"Hmm, no rush," Lin Nai said. "Anyway, the other side hasn't made a move yet, let's go back and get a good night's sleep together."
Upon hearing this, the girl stammered, "Again...again??"
“Of course.” Lin Nai said seriously, “Right now you are the enemy’s target and could be kidnapped at any time. You must stay with me at all times, even when you are sleeping. Well, it’s best if the distance between us doesn’t exceed three meters, even when we are sleeping.”
Night Child: "..."
Lin Nai patted her head: "Don't worry, we'll just sleep. No cultivation today."
Night Child: "..."
