Sili was scared, and Zhang Moli next to her was scared too.
Her personal terminal was also bombarded with calls, and you could tell from the calls that they were all asking her gossip!
Over the past few days, she has completely failed to comprehend how the Fifth Prince has gone from being a celestial being to being half-buried in the ground!
The coming-of-age ceremony at eighteen is truly toxic!
What was supposed to be a righteous live stream turned into a public announcement that her father had been cuckolded for over twenty years!
Who's more miserable than him!
"Stop answering!" Zhang Moli advised Si Lili. "Let the Emperor keep attacking. Anyway, he can't fly over anytime soon. Let's just play it safe."
***
Sili and others chose to lie low and do nothing, but some people were unwilling to choose that option.
Lou Renyu, puffing on his cigarette, exhaled a puff of smoke ahead: "Come out, brother. I know where you are. Is it fun watching me smoke while you're hiding like this?"
Duan Lie appeared.
Lou Renyu pointed to the chair in front of him: "Sit."
Seeing Duan Lie sit down, he smiled again, "I remember this student's special ability is X-ray vision, so what is the invisibility you've demonstrated...?"
Back then, on the starship, he not only paid attention to those with outstanding abilities, but also focused on those who didn't come to fight the wild beasts.
Duan Lie possesses the ability to see through objects, which he also studied in detail.
"Same as you," Duan Lie asked directly, without mincing words, "What kind of superpower do you have in your head?"
"Interesting, really interesting."
Lou Renyu stopped smoking, stood up, and went to the coffee machine to pour two cups of coffee. "I suspected there must be others like me, but I didn't expect you to discover me first. What's your reason for coming to find me?"
Duan Lie didn't accept the coffee, nor did he answer Lou Renyu's question first. Instead, he persistently asked him, "What kind of superpower is given to your mind?"
Lou Renyu laughed and said, "You should have guessed it."
"Mental strength?"
"Hmm." Lou Renyu didn't try to hide anything either. His gaze fell on Duan Lie's left hand and clothes. "It seems that you went through a great battle before you came here, and even lay in the treatment pod."
Duan Lie's gaze fell on his clothes.
The place was covered in blood.
He had encountered the spider beastmen with Shu Yan and the others. Shu Yan discovered his invisibility and protected everyone present with his mental energy, except for him.
He fell to the ground along with the spider orc. Facing the spider orc alone, losing an arm was the safest way for him to retreat.
"I came here to show you that even without the Fifth Prince and Luo Zilin, this world should still be able to function..." With that, he got up and left.
[Host, what does Duan Lie mean?] The system in Lou Renyu's mind was bewildered by this quick and easy operation.
Lou Renyu: "He also believes that someone deliberately manipulated him, and that the so-called completion of the plot was actually just to make him work for the Fifth Prince or Luo Zilin for free!"
[Host, aren't you going to cooperate with him to find the mother insect?]
"Let him test the waters first," Lou Renyu lit another cigarette. "Didn't you notice? He came to me specifically so that I would collect his body out of consideration for our shared plight?"
The system fell silent.
Many truths are indeed revealed through risking one's life.
However, Duan Lie had a different idea.
As Duan Lie headed towards Hall 1, the system in his mind was also asking him the same question.
[Host, now that you've found another host with a system, why not cooperate with him?!]
Duan Lie: "He doesn't need my help."
The system wants to know, host, how did you figure that out?
Duan Lie said, "But I need his help."
The system had to change the question.
[Host, what are you going to do now?]
"Take advantage of the chaos and kill the male and female protagonists!"
System [w(?Д?)w! ! ! ]
*****
Hu Tiantian seemed to have had a terrible nightmare. In the dream, she was afraid of being alive, afraid of dying, and afraid of losing things, but when she woke up, she forgot everything.
Her head was spinning, and when she opened her eyes, she discovered what seemed like a terrible problem.
Who is she hugging right now?
And in whose arms is she now!
Hu Tiantian suddenly opened her eyes, and Qin Han, who was alert even in his sleep, also opened his eyes at the same time.
Their eyes met.
Hu Tiantian wrapped her arms around Qin Han, sat on his lap, and nestled in his arms.
Then, she felt the sensation of a normal man waking up in the morning...
"Ah!" She sprang up, her head hitting Qin Han's chin. Because she was in his arms, she lost her balance and lurched forward while still holding onto Qin Han.
"Watch out!" Qin Han saw that she was about to fall, and before he could even regain his footing, he quickly reached out to stop her.
The end result was that both of them fell onto the makeshift bed in an embracing position.
Qin Han was still worried about whether the person was hurt: "Are you alright?"
Hu Tiantian blushed. She had plenty of experience with "Yamete" in the world of anime, but she had no practical experience at all. She lowered her head and stammered, "Let me go."
Young Master Qin finally realized the changes in himself.
If Qin Shao were a master of romance, he could seize the opportunity, claiming it was a normal male reaction, and then proceed to flirt with his beloved.
If Young Master Qin were an innocent child, he could pretend to be ignorant and try to find a topic to ask about. What's wrong? I don't know why I'm like this either.
However, Young Master Qin is also a virgin with zero practical experience!
"I...I...I..." His face was full of bravado, but he couldn't get anything out of his mouth despite his rapid speech. Then, he hardened his heart, put on his usual expression from the military, and said, "This is a normal morning reaction for a normal man!"
Hu Tiantian: "..."
Why would someone so ready to die tell me this?
Qin Han released the person, stood up, and straightened his clothes with his ears turning red.
Suddenly, he remembered something, turned around, and reached out to touch Hu Tiantian's forehead.
Hu Tiantian was startled by the sudden touch, her face turned pale, all her blushing and heart-pounding emotions vanished. She was sitting up and straightening her clothes when she was touched like that, and she froze there.
Seeing that the person did not have a fever and had a normal body temperature, Qin Han breathed a sigh of relief and picked up a bottle of water next to him: "You had a fever last night, but it's gone now. Drink some water. This is energy mineral water that Miss Tao brought."
Hu Tiantian took the water and looked up.
From her angle, she could see Qin Han's chin, which had grown some stubble overnight.
His clothes were completely crumpled, probably from scratching them last night.
"Thank you," Hu Tiantian said softly, clutching the water bottle. "Thank you for yesterday too."
"No need, it's my duty." Young Master Qin was usually stern and unsmiling in the army, but faced with such a soft thank you from his beloved, he was at a loss for words.
