Chapter 87 Clash



On the other side, Mao Liu felt a little embarrassed after seeing Xu Qing's reply. He rubbed his nose and then felt a burning gaze.

Looking in that direction, he saw Zhang Qiuwen staring at him with bloodshot eyes as if he were an enemy.

"cut!"

Mao Liu wasn't intimidated at all and rolled his eyes at Zhang Qiuwen.

You little punk, my leg is right here, you dare to touch me and see what happens!

Zhang Qiuwen suddenly yanked at his lab coat, tearing the already tattered garment in half.

He gritted his teeth and said viciously, "...You scoundrel, you thieving scoundrel!"

The confrontation here is relatively mild, but over there it's already a full-blown brawl! If we weren't in the air, a full-blown fight would probably break out immediately.

Jason made no attempt to hide his gaze as he scrutinized Xiao Jin, but no matter how he looked, he couldn't find any flaws in Xiao Jin's demeanor.

The seemingly casual sitting posture and position are actually a perfect balance of offense and defense, leaving one with no chance to achieve anything.

As for Mao Liu beside him, aside from the ability to make things disappear from a distance, Jensen didn't take him seriously. Mao Liu had too many flaws and was overjoyed; Jensen could easily take him down with a single, unexpected move.

But Jensen couldn't; he couldn't guarantee that he could find the secret code box Mao Liu had hidden after Mao Liu's death.

Jane could sense Xiao Jin's scrutiny, but she wasn't worried at all. Even if Xiao Jin wasn't there, she wouldn't be afraid, let alone if the other party had reservations now.

but……

Before, Xiao Jin hadn't had a chance to properly observe his surroundings because of the chaos. Now that he had some free time, Xiao Jin could sense that he was sitting around a large furnace, and at the center of the furnace was the Slo Laboratory.

The lab was originally air-conditioned, so she didn't feel the heat. But after the killings and explosions, Xiao Jin's clothes were soaked with sweat.

Although the [Scale Armor Protective Suit] was good, Xiao Jin took it off and put it into her space. After all, it was difficult for her to feel the changes in the outside temperature while wearing the protective suit.

I thought the high temperature was due to the latitude and longitude, but looking from the sky, why are there glaciers in front? This is not something that would happen in tropical waters.

Once they were far from the laboratory, Xiao Jin realized that there was actually an island beneath the Slow Laboratory, and the surrounding sea surface was full of glaciers, but the closer they got to the island, the fewer glaciers there were.

The Sloan Laboratory was like a sun that was constantly radiating heat, and this heat seemed to be spreading outwards every second, trying to melt away all the coldness around it.

Mao Liu saw it too, and he immediately remembered the type of this world.

Extreme heat disaster? Could this be the source of the extreme heat?

Mao Liu suddenly became a little excited. If they could block this heat dissipation pathway, could they end the game earlier?

The main storyline update for Xiao Jin and the others in the previous world had already been widely discussed among players, so Mao Liu immediately thought of this.

Jason observed their actions and became suspicious. They were clearly researchers from the lab, yet they seemed to know nothing about the area around Slow's lab.

Were they captured as experimental subjects? That's why they wanted to escape.

This was the only explanation that Jason could think of, and he stared at Xiao Jin, gradually becoming lost in thought.

"I don't like people always staring at me." That was the first thing Xiao Jin said since she came up.

It seemed very hot. She took off the blood-stained lab coat, revealing Ash Feather and an ordinary white shirt underneath.

Unlike when he was wearing black, Xiao Jin's fair face looked rather innocent against the backdrop of his shirt, making him look nothing like a murderer who would wield a knife without hesitation, and also revealing the fact that the original owner had just come of age.

However, Xiao Jin himself seemed completely unaware of his own limitations, and what he did was not something an eighteen-year-old handsome young man should do.

Suddenly, she drew her recurve knife from her waist, the tip piercing Jensen's ear and going straight through the chair.

"Captain! What do you want to do?"

The plane beneath them seemed to drop a few meters, and then a soft exclamation came from the side of Jensen's team. Xu Qing's helicopter was right behind them, so Jensen's walkie-talkie also came through with a question.

"What's going on? Captain, is everything alright on your end?"

Immediately, a furious and gruff voice rang out: "Damn it, kid, you dare touch our people? Believe me, I'll throw these two down here."

"Waaaaah, Boss Xiao, help me! He's pointing a knife at me!" The one crying was Pan Peng.

The next second, Xu Qing shouted angrily, "Can't you be a little more dignified?"

Xu Qing was furious. There were some words he couldn't use to describe the people around him. And these people were supposed to be players? He really had never seen anything like it.

A moment later, a calm voice came through the walkie-talkie: "I'm fine, continue following the route."

After speaking, Jensen looked up and stared directly at Xiao Jin. The recurve blade stopped at the tip of his ear, and the faint cold light stung his skin, but he remained calm because Jensen did not see any killing intent in Xiao Jin's eyes.

"Is there something you need?" he asked calmly.

"Heh~" Xiao Jin suddenly chuckled, and for a moment the dim cabin was dazzled by the smile. Mao Liu, who was holding Zhang Qiuwen's arm, slipped down and opened his mouth wide like a fool.

Oh my god... did he... did he just hallucinate?!

Unfortunately, this sudden splash of color only lasted for a moment before Xiao Jin immediately returned to her original aloof demeanor.

She parted her lips slightly and asked, "What's your name?"

Jensen, who was also startled, paused for a moment before answering, "Jensen." His eyes, however, involuntarily fell on Xiao Jin's long eyelashes.

Can I ask you a few questions?

"My surname is Jian!" After repeating the name to himself several times, Xiao Jin pondered for a moment before continuing.

Jensen pointed to his ear: "Do you usually ask questions like this?"

“Yes, usually I get a high accuracy rate of answers this way, and the person being asked rarely says anything unnecessary.” Xiao Jin emphasized the word ‘nonsense’.

Jensen's lips curled into a smile, then he leaned back as if he had completely let down his guard: "Ask away! But let me make this clear: even if you threaten me, there are things I simply won't say."

"Where is this place? What time, year, and season is it? What kind of experiments does the Slow Labs conduct? And who are you?"

Hearing these questions only strengthened Jensen's belief in his own judgment.
