The more Lina read the intelligence report, the more alarmed she became.
Black Flag City has many extraordinary beings. If they can win over the Sun God Cult to march south together, Qin Che and Li Xin will face enormous danger.
"This... is too much of a challenge. There are too many of them, they are superhumans. Don't try to fight them head-on."
Qin Che laughed and said, "You underestimate me?"
"No." Lina shook her head, her pretty face slightly flushed, but she couldn't hide the worry on her face.
“Apart from the superhumans in Black Flag City and those that city lord could find, including their Northern Territory Lord, they are all only first-stage superhumans. Unlike me, if they all attack me at once, I might deal with them cautiously, but I will never let that happen.”
Even a fool would know to defeat them one by one.
Qin Che's strength lies in his ability to appear and disappear without a trace, making him impossible for anyone to catch.
Furthermore, they have a stronger control over psionic particles.
Even if he were to stand in front of a superhuman, if he truly wanted to conceal his identity, the other party would never discover his presence.
The enemy is in the open, while we are in the shadows.
They attack, we defend.
They still have an advantage, but given the large number of extraordinary individuals on the opposing side, they can only manage a draw at best.
If they don't want to lose these forces...
As for the Sun God Cult, we need to be careful about that leader. Although Wei Tuozhi has not been confirmed in the documents, some information can be proven through indirect inquiries and testimony.
This person is very likely a second-stage transcendent being.
Qin Che hadn't expected that there were so many powerful individuals in the north; in comparison, there were far too few extraordinary individuals in the desert.
The scarcity of resources is a very important point.
Add to that the suppression by the psionic core...
These past few years have truly wasted a lot of talent.
Those old men in the old parliament deserve to die; they should be sentenced to death.
In short, you need to be careful.
Lina put down the documents, her gaze gentle, and softly reminded everyone that every time news of the battlefield at Tiger Leopard Peak came back these past few days, it made her heart tighten.
One after another, extraordinary individuals appeared.
They were afraid that one day Qin Che would be beaten so badly that he would be carried back.
Or perhaps, they can never come back.
Faced with Qin Che's ambiguous smile, Lina lowered her eyes, gently turned her face away, and avoided eye contact.
Suddenly, a hand reached out from in front, covered the back of her hand, and gently held it: "Don't worry."
Lina blushed, her whole body trembled slightly, and she felt a warmth in someone's hand, as if she were melting.
"What's wrong? You seem to have a fever?"
Qin Che reached out again, covered Lina's forehead, brushed aside her bangs, and sensed her temperature.
Lina's boil is almost done...
"Otherwise... I can go to the front lines with you. I'm also a psionicist and can help you."
Qin Che laughed and said, "You've neglected combat these past two years. Come to think of it, you've rarely fought since you left Sandcastle with me, right?"
Lina gave a wry smile and lowered her head, saying, "There were a few times, but as you said, I've really become rusty. Things have piled up, and I've been busy with paperwork, which has made me feel completely useless."
"That would be good. Li Shuai would be at ease, and so would I."
Lina's heart skipped a beat, and her gaze softened as she looked up at Qin Che: "You...you know why I brought you here. Princess Sa asked me to protect you. She sent me here on purpose. She knows everything."
Seeing that Qin Che remained silent, Lina asked in a trembling voice, "You...do you know?"
Suddenly, Qin Che pulled her into his arms. Although Lina was athletic, she was petite, and when he hugged her, it was like he was holding a figurine.
She wasn't as tall as Safanyin, but she had a great figure. Although she didn't have the same soft and supple curves as his wife, she had her own unique physique.
Before Sa Fanyin could react, she seemed to freeze in Qin Che's arms, her eyes glazed over, feeling as if Qin Che was holding her face in his hands.
"You... bastard."
Qin Che patted her on the back: "You don't have to worry anymore, right?"
Lina's pretty face flushed red. She didn't say a word, not knowing what to say, and turned around and left quickly as if fleeing.
Qin Che leaned against the table and shook his head.
He had just pounced on her without thinking.
Of course, this is not a big problem.
If he wants to pounce, Lina can pounce on him anytime.
...
It seemed like in the blink of an eye, everyone knew that war was about to break out.
Qin Che left Tiger Leopard Peak and went to various front lines to inspect the troops, check whether the supplies were complete, and whether the defense lines were well-constructed.
Li Xin was stationed in the southwest to prevent further invasions from the southern raiding tribes.
Qin Che personally went to the northern route to survey the terrain.
The two could only communicate with each other via telegram.
"I'm leaving the backpackers to you. They won't be of much use in fighting Black Flag City. It would be a shame if they all died here."
"Then I'll gladly accept it. After you killed two transcendent beings in the southern tribes, they've become much more obedient now, but who knows if they'll come to launch another sneak attack?"
"Logically speaking, they suffered extremely heavy losses in the last battle. Their extraordinary beings were killed, and even their military units were almost wiped out. What ability do they have to come and fight us again? Unless all those tribal chiefs are idiots. Anyway, you just need to keep an eye on things for me."
In his telegram, Li Xin expressed his concern: "We have too few superhuman abilities. Alas, in the entire desert, there are only the two of us. But in the Garden of Gods, any tribe could have a superhuman. I really feel unbalanced."
"I asked the academics at the research institute and the highest university about this, and they all had different opinions. But the conclusion that most of them came to me was that Lingbi has controlled the core of spiritual energy for many years, and the desert is so poor in resources that it is difficult for powerful awakened people to emerge. I think that our desert may be a rather special place."
