Chapter 248 Strange Girl



Are none of these true?

No, no, no.

Xu Ling rejected the idea without hesitation.

Although she wasn't as reliable as someone who could directly detect the presence of strangers using infrared scanning, she was quite certain, thanks to her keen senses, that the girl she had bumped into earlier who had screamed was hiding not far away!

Even if her naked eye couldn't detect any trace of the other party!

Time passed silently, and Xu Ling waited patiently for a while longer. When the silence remained, she realized that the other person was completely unmoved by her words.

It seems he's trying to get away with playing dead?!

Xu Ling's eyes immediately darkened. She pursed her lips and deliberately lowered her voice to threaten, "I advise you to come out now! Otherwise... once I find you, I won't be so polite!"

As she finished speaking, her voice suddenly dropped a few decibels, and a chilling aura emanated from her words, lingering in the air.

In an instant, even the temperature dropped significantly.

In this tense atmosphere, Kaopu and Feier couldn't help but exchange a glance. Despite the inappropriate setting, a teasing look appeared in their eyes.

I have to admit that if I hadn't spent enough time with Xu Ling, I would have been intimidated by her imposing manner just by looking at her right now!

And that is indeed the case.

Although Kaopu and Feier were not intimidated by Xu Ling at this moment, some people were genuinely frightened by her words.

The instant Xu Ling finished speaking, the empty space in front of her, which seemed to have nothing there, distorted almost imperceptibly.

Xu Ling blinked.

She knew she wasn't seeing things, but she didn't do anything.

Just in case, Xu Ling pretended not to have noticed anything and patiently waited for the other party to reveal more.

At this moment, April, the brown-haired girl who was openly hiding under everyone's noses, trembled uncontrollably again while curled up in a ball.

She couldn't help it; she didn't want it to be like this, but she was scared!

Unlike Kaopu and Feier, who clearly knew that Xu Ling was bluffing and had no real skills, April, who was knocked away by the other party without even seeing him, was naturally afraid!

Where is this place?

This is the middle of nowhere, deep in the mountains and forests!

Not only is it in the middle of nowhere, but wild animals also frequently roam the area...

In short, April had never seen anyone so calm after falling in such a dangerous place!

In other words, if one wasn't confident in their own abilities, how could they possibly recklessly step into this dangerous place at night?

So, it's obvious without even thinking that this girl who suddenly appeared out of nowhere and is now threatening her must be incredibly powerful!

April was terrified, but despite her fear, she wasn't foolish enough to panic and expose herself based on a few words of threat from the other party.

Although her heart was pounding in her throat, April held her breath, carefully clutching her cloak, silently repeating to herself: They haven't noticed me, they haven't noticed me…

It wasn't that she was confident in her hiding place and thought the other party would definitely not be able to find her, but rather that she was confident in the invisibility cloak that her teacher had specially found for her!

Even if she were right under the other party's nose, her invisibility cloak could still perfectly conceal all her traces and aura, making it absolutely impossible for anyone to find her!

Of course, this is indeed a valid point of view. With the naked eye, Xu Ling and the other two could not find April, but what could they do when one of them had an unusual cheat device?

The human body cannot function without generating heat, so reliable infrared scanning can naturally reveal everything.

However, in this situation, there is no need to waste her talents, because just as April wanted to further tighten her invisibility cloak to hide her aura, she accidentally gave herself away.

April didn't notice the rustling sound of her cloak brushing against the sparse grass on the ground. At the same time, Xu Ling, with her sharp eyes, noticed that the green grass under her feet was inexplicably bent over.

Therefore, it goes without saying where the person is!

Xu Ling couldn't help but smile: "Found it!"

What did you find?!

April was startled. Before the panic in her heart could grow, she felt a tightness around her neck, making her want to cough.

However, immediately afterward, she felt a void above her head as her hood was pulled off.

April suddenly looked up.

It was pitch black all around, even the face above her head was a dark mass, as if swallowed by darkness.

She couldn't see anything, but she clearly felt the other person open a gaping, blood-red maw at her and say, "...Look~ I found you~~"

The malicious voice, coupled with the deathly silence around her, finally made April tremble uncontrollably.

"Aaaaaaahh ...

"quack--"

A crow, seemingly appearing out of nowhere, was perched on a tree branch above Xu Ling's head, continuing its noisy cawing.

Looking at the girl lying on the ground, limp and unconscious, Xu Ling couldn't help but touch her own cheek.

Is she really that scary?

Otherwise, how could he have scared the other party into fainting as soon as he showed up?

However, none of that matters now. What matters is—we can't just leave them here like this, can we?

Xu Ling quickly lowered her hand, then turned to the two people still standing there, asking for help: "She's fainted, what should we do? Do you have any ideas?"

No matter how useless it may seem, there are still reliable ways to wake someone up.

So the crow in the tree watched the golden Abyssinian cat that had been sitting not far away watching the commotion, and tiptoed down to the foot of the tree.

Then, no one knows what it did, but the crow only saw the cat get a little closer, and the girl who had been lying motionless on the ground frowned slightly, as if she had woken up.
