Chapter 549: A Twist in the Head (Part 1)
The unexpected discovery of Organization X brightened Ruan Qi's mood and made her very happy.
She put on the backpack she had taken from the man, slung her gun over her shoulder, and left the place silently.
The night deepened, and from time to time, faint footsteps could be heard in the pitch-black woods.
Ruan Qi moved his ears, identified the locations of the other men in camouflage uniforms, and then blended into the darkness like a ghost.
Two minutes later, the silver needle flashed.
A man in camouflage uniform fell to the ground silently.
Another minute passed, and two more men fell.
The night was as cold as water, and the surroundings became increasingly silent.
The remaining few men in camouflage uniforms seemed to sense something was wrong and raised their guns vigilantly.
Suddenly, a cold wind blew.
The two men in camouflage uniforms immediately pointed their guns into the pitch-black night.
They held their breath and looked around, but did not find any suspicious people.
"Damn it!" one of them couldn't help but curse, "Why is tonight's operation so unsuccessful? We can't even catch a woman!"
"I didn't expect this Qi Sha to be so fast. If I fail to complete the mission tonight, I'll be punished again when I get back."
"Damn it! What kind of shabby place is this? Why is there such a cold wind blowing?"
Both of them felt a chill on the back of their necks, as if there was a breeze blowing.
One of them couldn't help but raised his hand to touch his neck, but to his horror he felt a cold hand.
The man was stunned for a moment, and a chill rushed from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.
It's the dead of night and it's pitch black, where did this hand come from?!
It can't be a ghost, right?
The man's face turned pale instantly. He trembled and wanted to turn back, but just when he turned his head halfway, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his neck.
A silver needle with a cold glow pierced his throat at some point.
The man opened his mouth, but without a sound coming out, he closed his eyes and fell down.
His companion standing next to him sensed something was wrong and turned around to shoot.
But Ruan Qi's movements were faster than his. His five fingers formed claws and his hands moved as fast as lightning. In the blink of an eye, he grabbed the man's head and twisted it hard.
Snap!
With a sound of bone breaking, the man opened his eyes wide in disbelief, and then fell down limply.
Bai Li in the system saw this scene and couldn't help but let out a "fuck".
"Ruan Xiaoqi, are you twisting someone's head or a cabbage? Aren't your movements a little too skillful?"
Ruan Qi smiled shyly upon hearing this, "Oh, you found out? When I was little, I often went to the fields to help my grandma pick vegetables, and I got used to twisting cabbages. Uncle Bai Li, you don't know that twisting the cabbages growing in the fields to make a hole is really relaxing. I loved doing this as a kid, and now that I haven't twisted cabbages in over a year, I can't help myself."
Bai Li: “…”
You are such a hard-working little bee. Should I applaud you?
The old man rolled his eyes speechlessly and asked, "Did you kill them?"
"No. Am I the kind of person who would take human life lightly?" The little girl kicked the two unconscious men into the pit and blinked innocently. "I didn't kill them. I just twisted their necks. They can recover in a year or two in the hospital."
Bai Li: “…”
I had so much to complain about that I didn't know what to say for a moment.
Ruan Qi dealt with several people from the X organization in succession, but he didn't feel relaxed at all.
Organization X's methods were too cruel. If they were determined to kill her and Simon, they would never have sent only these few people to find them.
Ruan Qi's heart became more heavy when she thought of the dozen or so off-road vehicles on the road.
Although she had sent a message for help to Baby Barley, distant water could not quench immediate thirst, and no one could tell when the reinforcements would arrive.
Even if she tried to delay time, the people from Organization X might not be able to let her do so.
Especially since she knocked out so many camouflage uniforms, once Organization X couldn't contact these people, they would definitely realize something was wrong.
Ruan Qi was just thinking about it when the Bluetooth headset worn by the man she had hidden in the pit suddenly lit up.
"Group four! Group four, group four!" Ruan Qi took the headset and placed it to her ear. A man's cold voice came from the headset, "Group four, please reply if you hear me."
Ruan Qi remained silent.
The person on the other end of the headset keenly sensed something was wrong and immediately cut off the signal.
Sure enough, the other party discovered it!
Ruan Qi's heart sank.
The people from Organization X have noticed something unusual and they will probably send more people to capture her soon.
She had to find a way to turn passivity into initiative and buy more time for herself and Simon to survive.
"...Actually, there is a way, but it's a bit dangerous. But you should be able to do it with your ability." Bai Li suddenly spoke.
Ruan Qi's eyebrows moved slightly, "Uncle Bai Li, you want to say..."
"Go deep into the Tiger's Bloodline," Bai Li said. "With your skills, although you can't withstand firearms, you still have mental strength. Seventh girl, your mental strength is very strong. It shouldn't be a problem to kill those people quietly. However, there is a drawback..."
No matter how powerful the mental power is, it will eventually be exhausted. An ancient warrior whose mental power is exhausted will become very fragile physically.
If Ruan Qi didn't get rid of all the people from Organization X before her mental strength was exhausted, her situation would be very dangerous.
"I did a rough count on the highway earlier, and there are about sixty assassins sent by Organization X. It's a bit of a large number, but it should be within your mental endurance. Girl, it's your choice whether to go deeper into the Tiger Cave or continue to delay."
Ruan Qi fell into deep thought.
Intellectually speaking, going deep into the Tiger Cave and rashly using her mental power wasn't a good idea. The people in Organization X were all crazy, and if she went there alone, it would be easy for something to go wrong.
The best option is to delay until reinforcements arrive.
However, time waits for no one. Simon Austin is injured.
The gunshot wound on his shoulder was bleeding all the time. If he continued to delay, before reinforcements arrived, the soul-catching Black and White Impermanence would arrive first.
The human body only has so much blood, and Simon Austin, an ordinary person, really can't withstand such a production.
Ruan Qi pondered for a moment and made a decision.
"I use my mental power."
Bai Li: "Have you really decided?"
"Yeah." The girl tightened her backpack around her and pushed her cap down. "Simon's injury won't last long, and I don't know when reinforcements from Big Barley will arrive. Instead of waiting for help from outside, I might as well rely on myself."
Nie Beilou had taught her since she was little that when faced with a desperate situation, one must never passively wait. Only by taking the initiative can one find a glimmer of hope.
Ruan Qi is not a passive person. She has to fight a way out for herself and Simon.
Seeing that she had made up her mind, Bai Li said, "Okay, go ahead and do it. I'm here. As long as you have a breath left, I can save you."
Ruan Qi curved her peach blossom eyes and flew out as light as a swallow.
