Before he could protest, the same ropes that were on Andrei were tied around his body again.
"That's too much..." Xiao He said, dissatisfied.
Xiao Ai ignored his expression, holding a rope in one hand as if she were leading a dog.
"If you have anything to say, come back to the Temple of Life with me and we'll talk about it."
Where is the Temple of Life?
"capital."
"It's too far, maybe next time?"
"I'm not asking for your opinion, I'm informing you."
Just as the two were exchanging questions, Andrei suddenly stood up straight on the ground.
"Whoosh—"
Xiao He instinctively deployed his mechanical wings and flew onto the roof beam, while Xiao Ai beside him swiftly climbed onto a stone tablet. Looking down again, they saw that the ground was covered with sharp spikes, which seemed to be alive as they stretched and contracted.
"Hey, is this Immortal Binding Rope a high-quality fake?"
Xiao He hung from the roof beam like a dumpling, staring at her in disbelief. Had the two not reacted quickly, they would have been riddled with thorns by now.
Xiao Ai remained silent, a hint of apprehension flashing in her eyes as she looked at Andrei.
If Xiao He wants to view his level and panel attributes, he must at least attack or heal him once before the system can collect his relevant information.
"Hey classmate, could you loosen the rope a bit? I'm going to die if you do it again!" Xiao He complained.
Xiao Ai didn't have time to reply before a swarm of Gu worms attacked her.
In contrast, Xiao He, who hadn't incurred any hatred, was much more relaxed, hanging from the roof beam as if watching a play.
Xiao Ai is a traditional priestess whose attack method comes from her mysterious earring, which, like Luo Yan's flute, is a special "life weapon".
She is not suited for direct combat; she is only suited for ambushing from the shadows, like she did just now, and ideally, she can kill with a single blow.
Unfortunately, Andrei's abilities were also quite strange. Even though he hadn't completely broken free of the ropes, it didn't stop him from launching an attack on Xiao Ai.
As the now-deceased Gao Lin said, he could control Gu worms, which was similar to controlling demons.
Xiao He looked around and realized that the only exit was the door behind Andrei.
It's difficult to rush out through the front gate, and if you get caught again, you probably won't be so lucky.
So he made a mark on the earthen wall behind him.
"boom--"
The two were locked in a fierce battle when suddenly a violent roar erupted.
Turning their heads, they saw the last rays of the setting sun outside the temple, piercing through the flying dust, skimming over the shattered bricks and tiles, and silently shining at their feet.
Looking up again, Xiao He, wrapped up like a rice dumpling, flew away through the hole in the wall!
"stop!"
Xiao Ai quickly tried to control the rope to pull it back.
Andrei, standing to the side, was even more nervous than her; his eyes were bloodshot and almost bursting.
"Lord Ikami!"
Countless Gu worms merged together, like a tornado chasing after Xiao He in mid-air.
"Bang--"
Another laser cannon exploded, and the Gu worms fared no better than the shattered earthen wall.
Xiao He, with a "baby's wronged" expression, was caught by Wang Xuefeng in mid-air.
"Sigh, I told you to leave earlier, but you insisted on satisfying your curiosity." Wang Xuefeng didn't know how to scold him.
Xiao He silently turned his head and gazed at the two figures chasing after him on the ground.
Although Xiao Ai also wanted to capture Xiao He, her main target was still Andrei.
After realizing she could no longer catch up with Wang Xuefeng, she turned her attention back to the madman.
As Andrei watched Xiao He walk away, his emotions were already on the verge of spiraling out of control, and he was completely unprepared for Xiao Ai behind him.
"Lord Ikami——"
"Whoosh—"
The black needle pierced Andrei's skull once again.
His movements finally stopped...
Xiao He looked down at the ropes that were gradually disappearing from his body and knew that Xiao Ai had given up.
"Leaving aside Zhu's enemies, there's Wan Anna from the committee, Andrei, the mad believer, Xiao Ai from the Temple of Life, and Sang Maiqui from the Resurrection Cult?"
"How did I, a model student, suddenly become the public enemy of half the continent?"
Xiao He counted on his fingers, completely baffled.
They are currently outside the city. Wang Xuefeng wanted to take Xiao He away from this "restricted treatment zone," but the handcuffs on Xiao He's hands are a big problem.
If these handcuffs cannot be removed, even if healing abilities are restored, no skills can be used.
The underground passage had long been sealed off, and to return to the city, one had to go through the main gate, but the main gate was also closed due to the city lockdown order.
Even the protests from those adventurer groups were ineffective; their presence would likely have the same outcome.
Wang Xuefeng frowned and secretly expanded his perception of the surrounding environment.
“It’s alright. Find a relatively safe place, and I can treat my wound myself,” Xiao He said.
As a qualified intermediate pastor, this simple "operation" was no challenge for him.
"Okay." Wang Xuefeng nodded slightly.
-
The two walked through the mountains and forests and arrived at an inland sea.
Erlan Sea is the closest sea to Flying Dragon City and also the smallest inland sea on the Nuojin Continent.
Before the mutation, this was a prime location for many fishermen. After the mutation, all the marine life died out.
Several nearby fishing villages were also destroyed, and the surrounding forests also withered and died.
Only a patch of ice and snow where the sky meets the earth remains, adding a cold white hue to this gloomy painting.
Looking around, this place resembles a desolate wasteland after the apocalypse...
The last rays of the setting sun disappeared completely, and darkness fell.
Wang Xuefeng led Xiao He to a fisherman's house that was still relatively intact.
