Chapter 105 Despite the tension of the previous battle, Nangong Qi was unable to concentrate...
Despite the tension of the battle ahead, Nangong Qi couldn't concentrate on watching, her gaze occasionally drifting to the junior director beside her.
Eight hundred episodes of melodramatic soap operas flashed through Nangong Qi's mind. It's hard for Nangong Qi not to overthink things when faced with something like this: a body double? Amnesia? Time travel?
But the director kept ignoring her, so she had no choice but to start watching the first time the two of them worked together to fight the enemy.
This made her feel extremely emotional, as this was the first time the protagonist and the second male lead in the novel had teamed up together. By this point in the novel, the two were already close friends, forming a trio with the female lead.
Now, even before their first collaboration, it was extremely rare to see them together; it really was a rare sight.
Watching the tense fight between the two, Nangong Qi noticed something was wrong. It seemed that the two didn't actually want the monster to die; they were just drawing fire.
They delayed as much as possible, their cooperation so seamless that they seemed to know each other's thoughts without words or even eye contact.
Suddenly, Nangong Qi saw Aji glance at them from afar. Just as Nangong Qi made eye contact with Aji, she noticed his gaze drift towards the director, lingering for a while before shifting away, his eyes filled with determination.
Then his abilities suddenly surged, and he entered a berserk state, clearly turning the tide of the battle. Nangong Qi was astonished. This... this could be the power of love!
In fact, these two vests are two vests that have a synergistic effect when put together, which allows Aji's vest to unleash 200% of its power.
That one glance was just to confirm whether the distance on both sides was safe for Nangong Qi and her main body.
Compared to Nangong Qi, her main body was closer to the battlefield, so she used her eyes to assess the distance between the two for a while, and once she confirmed that the distance was about right, she unleashed her ultimate skill.
However, it won't go very far, since this devouring ability is quite difficult to deal with.
Aji transformed into a giant wolf, while Huji silently moved behind him to observe, analyzing the situation while keeping an eye on the surrounding area.
This time, things were a little different when Aji bit down. Instead of being swallowed, the monster was bitten open with a large gash.
Aji's mouth started hissing and smoking as if he had eaten sulfuric acid, but he didn't let go of it and instead quickly swallowed.
Then they continued their attack, neither of them gaining an advantage. The fight was bloody, and only Aji's wounds were healing. Once the monster swallowed something, it would never return.
But later on, the monster realized it shouldn't give him another chance to bite it, so it would take advantage of the gaps to hit Aji's hands, feet, or body.
But suddenly the monsters, which no longer resembled humans, began to move to other places.
With just one action, Hongji understood why. He frowned, turned around without hesitation, and immediately rushed to the director, taking him away. Sure enough, the monster also changed its target.
Nangong Qi was left alone, bewildered in the wind. Was I not in danger just because I feared for him?
Why did you only take him away? And you've been carrying her around so much, I feel like I have marks on my neck, but he just hugged her! And he was so careful! It's not that she doesn't deserve it, it's not that there's a reason!
Of course, the real reason is that the monster's target is the director. As long as the main body is taken away, Nangong Qi can be avoided from being accidentally hurt. The reason for mentioning Nangong Qi is simply because men and women should not touch each other.
Hu Ji carried his main body and began to flee into the distance. He could no longer launch a wide-range attack as before, and he had very little energy left in order to conserve it.
But the monster behind him kept chasing relentlessly, even abandoning Aji's attacks and choosing to ignore them as the monster bit off a piece of flesh from him.
Huji could only continue to flee, and the monster began to devour its surroundings, making it even larger.
He had only one goal left: the director.
He roared and became even larger, pressing down completely, his enormous shadow blotting out the sky.
Bang! It was too late. Without thinking, Huji lay down and held his main body tightly in his arms, forming an egg shape with his main body underneath him.
Soon, Aji stepped forward, and in less than a second, she opened her mouth wide and bit down, tearing the contents off.
With great difficulty, Huiji stood up. Most of his body had been corroded. He touched the oil-leaking areas on his body, checked for a while, and breathed a sigh of relief. It wasn't a big problem.
Fortunately, there's still time; it's almost time.
The monster suddenly felt a pain and looked around in confusion, but saw nothing. What was going on? Why was it in pain?
Suddenly, another pain shot through him. Before he could even react, he vomited a large amount of random stuff. What was this? He stared blankly at it. What happened to him?
Then suddenly, my whole body started to shrink, and my whole world began to crumble.
The director breathed a sigh of relief. This thing was really not easy to deal with at all. Why was it written so easily in the novels?
Nangong Qi felt as if the place had changed in the blink of an eye, and looking at them, it was as if she had returned to the real world.
Upon closer inspection, the person who resembled the director had also become the director. Well, perhaps that was the director, so it's understandable.
They looked at the place where they came out, and Shao Ji was standing there with blood on her hands and blood all over her mouth. Seeing them, she finally fainted in relief.
Shao Ji appeared from the very beginning, and the two sides proceeded simultaneously. After searching for a long time, she finally found where that person had died.
Upon opening the door, a stench assaulted the senses. Shao Ji, without batting an eye, reached into the corpse's chest. How could it still be alive with a knife wound running through its heart?
After stirring for a long time, I finally found it. I took it out and absorbed it without hesitation. Time was of the essence, so I had to speed things up.
However, having just been stripped of his divine status, he was now forcibly absorbing too much divine energy, and he couldn't digest it, so he fainted.
Fortunately, nothing bad happened and everyone returned safely.
Back in reality, Jie Mao and the others were still waiting, and as soon as they saw them, they immediately surrounded them.
Jie Mao caught Shao Ji, panicking, "Lady Shao Ji! Lady Shao Ji! Are you alright?! What happened to you?!" Looking at the others, he roared at them, "What's wrong with you all! Why is only Lady Shao Ji injured...?"
Before he could finish speaking, Aji's body was instantly stained red with blood. He coughed a few times with difficulty, and the other flesh and blood body, Huji, immediately stepped forward to support him.
The body of the deceased was so corroded that he could barely walk and was supported by a robot.
The only ones who hadn't yet lay down were Nangong Qi and the director.
That's terrible, three people were injured after just one trip inside.
Nangong Qi was somewhat indignant; she had died so many times already!
The director managed to calm Jie Mao down a bit, saying, "Xiang Shaoji just absorbed the divine spark; she's just having some indigestion right now."
"Hmph! You're smart to know what's good for you!" Then, still feeling indignant, he helped Shao Ji away without making things difficult for them anymore.
After they left, it became quiet for a while.
The director spoke first, "Who are you with?" He looked at Nangong Qi.
Nangong Qi was a little confused, not quite understanding what was happening. "Me?"
"Yes, do you want to go with Hongji or Aji?" the director asked good-naturedly.
Nangong Qi hesitated for a moment, then finally made up her mind, "Can I come with you, Director!"
"Huh? Why?" The director was genuinely puzzled. What could he possibly do by following him? He was penniless and had nothing.
"Because..." Shao Ji looked around to make sure no one else could hear her before speaking, "Are you Ye Shuoyan?"
The director stared at Shao Ji for a long time, but he didn't expect that her first question would be this.
But he still answered her question seriously, "Yes, you guessed right, I am Ye Shuoyan, not just in that fake world."
"So...you and I are from the same place, and we were even classmates?" Nangong Qi asked cautiously.
"Yes." The director looked at the little girl with amusement.
"Then...then we're from the same hometown!" Nangong Qi said happily, but she was also a little scared, for some reason.
"Yes." The director nodded in confirmation.
"Wuhu!" Suddenly she realized something. "Wait, you're actually from the same world as me. Why are you the director? A character from a novel? Could it be... you've transmigrated! You've become the villain in the novel!" Nangong Qi fully unleashed her imagination, her mind always wandering wildly.
Seeing the joy in Nangong Qi's eyes, he didn't want to expose her, so he remained silent, which Nangong Qi interpreted as tacit agreement.
"No wonder you're different from the one in the novel! How could someone as good as you be a villain!" No, he's just the same person as described in the novel, he hasn't changed.
"No wonder you've been missing for a year! It's because you time-traveled! Oh no, I wonder how long I've been in reality. My parents must be so worried." No, the cause and effect are reversed. He time-traveled because he "disappeared".
"Then let's find our way back together!" The director smiled as he looked at Nangong Qi's sparkling eyes. He couldn't go back.
"Keep going, you'll come home." The director finally said something, and Nangong Qi didn't notice anything unusual for a moment.
"Chief!" a warm and enthusiastic voice rang out. For a moment, the chief was a little dazed; he hadn't heard that voice in a long time. At the same time, his assistant, whom he hadn't seen in a long time, also came down.
It seems the doctor has called in outside help. The assistant timidly greeted them, seemingly aware that the director wouldn't allow her to help the doctor.
"Director, it's been a long time."
"Long time no see, how was your time?"
Turning around again, I saw the doctor, who came over panting. The first thing the doctor did wasn't to question me, but to look the director up and down and ask, "Are you alright? Is everything over?"
The director looked at the doctor and smiled. "It's almost over."
