This herb has no lingering effects, so Lu Manman isn't worried about being exposed at all. Even if he goes to the hospital for a checkup now, they won't be able to find anything wrong with him.
Qi Xiuyuan was about to say something when he was interrupted by the notification sound from the quantum computer.
It was a notification sent by the person in charge here, instructing us to go and welcome His Highness the Prince.
Regardless, we must still give face to the royal family, and it wouldn't be appropriate to bring a companion robot and offend His Highness.
"You stay here, I'll go out for a bit and be right back."
"Okay, Xiuyuan!"
Let's go, let's go quickly, the road is long, but I can already smell the breath of freedom.
As the door closed, Lu Manman quickly got up, pressed her ear to the door and listened for a while. Once she confirmed that Qi Xiuyuan's footsteps were getting farther and farther away, she breathed a long sigh of relief.
Lu Manman walked to the window and quietly glanced at the surrounding surveillance cameras. Tsk tsk tsk, no wonder it's Hope Base, the surrounding area is covered with surveillance cameras, even a fly flying out would be detected.
Lu Manman looked worried. Suddenly, she noticed a man sneaking towards her.
Judging from his attire and actions, he doesn't look like a good person at all. So, is this a robbery?
Lu Manman's eyes lit up, afraid that the person wouldn't notice her, and she pretended to be dazed as she walked past the window again and again.
Snap!
Sure enough, the door opened, and Lu Manman, suppressing her tears of excitement, pretended to look at the person who came in with a blank expression.
The person was wearing something on their face, making it impossible for her to see their facial features.
Suddenly, the man took out a square object and pressed it against Lu Manman. Lu Manman was a little confused. What was this?
The man pressed it a few more times, but there was still no response.
As the man pressed the buttons faster and faster, Lu Manman felt she should react.
So everything went black and he collapsed to the ground.
"Phew! Luckily it still works. I thought the robot's circuit breaker had malfunctioned."
Although the person mumbled very softly, Lu Manman, being an ability user with sharp ears, heard every single word.
Looks like the gamble paid off.
After a rustling sound, Lu Manman felt as if she were trapped in a bag. She cautiously opened her eyes and found it was pitch black.
Lu Manman couldn't help but smile; it felt so good to have her wish fulfilled.
After a bumpy ride, Lu Manman felt herself being thrown into a box.
Then came a dizzying spin, and Lu Manman was moved again, seemingly having been fought several more times. After an unknown amount of time, it finally stopped.
Then a sudden feeling of weightlessness came over her. Lu Manman quickly used her superpower to try to open the box, but found that the box was very sturdy and she didn't know what material it was made of. She couldn't open it no matter what she did, so she could only use her superpower to wrap herself up.
Oh no, oh no, oh no! I barely survived the apocalypse and arrived in a high-tech future, even making hundreds of millions of dollars, and now I'm going to die from a fall like this? I'd rather not have been robbed at all.
*Thud!* Lu Manman landed on the ground, but it seemed as if something caught her. Then, a foul smell made Lu Manman dizzy and almost vomit.
The surroundings were very noisy, and before Lu Manman could react, a sharp, black object pierced through the top of the box.
At that moment, Lu Manman, who was curled up in the box, felt something hard brush past the front of her stomach.
The originally sturdy box developed cracks as a result. Lu Manman quickly used her wood-type ability to conceal her presence and then broke the box open along the crack.
What came into view was a huge black insect, its black, scythe-like forelegs constantly stabbing at the box where Lu Manman had just been sitting.
Strange, it smelled really nice just now, why has it suddenly faded?
The black bugs were still poking at the box, and the bugs next to them saw this and started dragging the box along. Before long, the box had become a pile of broken and tattered wood.
Lu Manman shuddered involuntarily. Luckily, she had some special abilities, otherwise she would probably be nothing but ashes by now.
Looking up, all I could see were insects, in enormous numbers.
Good grief, they've dumped her on Zerg territory.
Most insectoids have poor eyesight and rely mainly on their sense of smell and touch. Fortunately, she was clever and used her wood-based abilities to conceal her presence beforehand; to the insects, she was just like a tree in this place.
The insects that hadn't found their target went back to doing their own thing, while the big insect that had raised its sickle high lowered its leg and left.
The crisis is over.
Lu Manman looked around and saw insects all around him, each at least a meter long, densely packed, and everywhere he looked, there were insects.
Not knowing where she was, Lu Manman turned on her personal computer, wanting to go online to check, but there was no signal.
Unconvinced, Lu Manman took out the personal computer that Ru Feng had given her—the one that represented Yunku—but it still showed no signal.
This is troublesome. Her wood-based ability won't last long; at most, it'll only last a day.
Sitting and waiting for death was out of the question, so Lu Manman randomly chose a direction and started walking. As a result, her matching red high heels fell off when she lifted her foot.
Looking around, the ground was all sticky and wet, and my shoes were stuck to it.
Ugh, that's disgusting!
Lu Manman instantly got goosebumps, took off her shoes, and carefully walked along, trying to stay on the large rocks nearby.
Wearing a formal dress was ultimately inconvenient, so Lu Manman found a slightly drier place, took off her clothes, and changed into men's clothing that she had prepared beforehand.
They continued forward, encountering all sorts of insects along the way. The insects were not only irritating to the eyes but also had a strong stench. Some of the insects were so smelly that Lu Manman couldn't help but splurge on using her superpowers on her mouth and nose.
Perhaps because the insectoids prefer damp and shady conditions, as we walked towards the sunlight, there were far fewer insects and the ground became much drier.
Just as she felt a little better, suddenly, the ground shook violently, and a swarm of insects rushed past Lu Manman.
Lu Manman quickly dodged left and right. To avoid being trampled, she could only try her best to run faster than the insects.
Lu ran all the way, finally catching up with the Zerg and becoming the leader of the Zerg, or rather, the leader.
However, this was too tiring. Lu Manman glanced behind her and saw ferocious-looking giant insects on both sides, swarming towards her like a black giant wave, terrifying and seemingly endless.
The thought of trying to dodge to the side vanished instantly, and all that remained was to muster all strength and keep running.
What's even more amazing is that no matter which way the road leads, the insects will chase after it.
Lu Manman once doubted whether there was something wrong with her superpower, but her superpower could clearly even fool zombies.
Although life-or-death tests can unleash a person's infinite potential, that potential will eventually be exhausted. At this moment, the road ahead seems endless, and my legs feel as weak as noodles. I'm running forward solely on my strong willpower.
Finally, Lu Manman couldn't hold on any longer. She tried to calm herself down, and her eyes instantly sharpened.
Since we can't shake them off no matter what we do, we might as well fight them head-on rather than exhaust ourselves to death.
The moment Lu Manman turned around, a suction force came from above and pulled her away.
