Chapter 229 The most dangerous enemy is the one in the shadows.



"Lorraine, I'm back."

After Azure flew back to the rooftop of the high-rise building, she returned to Lorraine's side with a happy smile of victory, her beautiful eyes... never leaving Lorraine from beginning to end.

Lorraine nodded.

"Thanks for your hard work."

"What's wrong? You don't seem very happy."

Should I be happy?

"Didn't we win?"

"We did win, but we didn't win either."

"They've started saying things that people can't understand again."

Azure rolled her eyes at him speechlessly.

However, just as she was about to take his arm and ask him more questions, a bright red and yellow figure soon appeared in their field of vision in the sky not far away.

It's magenta and sulfur.

After landing, the two of them jogged over here together.

With a smile, Yang Hong said proactively, "Brother Lin, I've got everything sorted out on my end too."

Sulfur stretched its neck and complained, "This is exhausting. I've taken care of things here quickly. They were just some weak monsters. If we wanted to deal with them, it would be a piece of cake."

Lorraine nodded in agreement.

"Thanks for your hard work."

at this time.

Lorraine's solemn expression was also noticed by Magenta and Sulfur. The two first glanced at Azure, who shrugged and said, "Don't look at me. We've definitely handled things perfectly on our side, but even though we've won, Lorraine still keeps frowning and saying things that are hard to understand."

"What nonsense is he spouting now?" Sulfur teased.

"We say we've won, but we haven't really won."

"Haha, I'm used to it now."

The two chatted and laughed.

Yang Hong didn't join in the commotion. Instead, she took the initiative to come up to Lorraine and asked gently and patiently, "Brother Lin, is there something you're worried about?"

Lorraine glanced at her, hesitated for a moment, and then confessed.

"That's strange."

"What's so strange?"

"The frequency of monster attacks in the city has suddenly increased in the past two days, and almost all of them are attacks by weak monsters. Although the individual monsters are not strong, their numbers are quite large. I suspect... this is a very dangerous sign."

"What?" x3

These words were spoken.

Azure and Sulfur, who were standing nearby, immediately lost their teasing smiles and gathered around.

Lorraine said earnestly.

"For the past two days, we have been running around the city non-stop, and even fighting at high intensity everywhere to protect the city's safety. If this is a trap, we may be in danger."

"A trap? A trap set by an evil organization?" Sulfur pressed.

"Yes, I have carefully observed the location and time of each monster's appearance. The intervals between them are generally very short, and the locations are very scattered, which seems to be a strategy of exhausting the enemy."

"So, this is a conspiracy by an evil organization?" Magenta asked nervously.

"I have no evidence, but right now... in order to fight, we need to keep running around, and even split up to act separately, which will greatly increase the risk."

“Even if it’s a conspiracy, and monsters are attacking civilians, we can’t just sit idly by,” Azure said.

“You’re right. That’s why we’re forced to continue doing this even though we know something’s wrong. What if a powerful enemy suddenly appears, waiting in ambush while we’re exhausted? We’ll be in danger.”

Lorraine's words.

The three girls were immediately taken aback and stopped laughing.

Magenta also hoped that this was just a coincidence.

"Haha, Brother Lin, aren't the villains in the evil organization just Magia and the other two? There shouldn't be anything to be afraid of. Even if we really encounter them, we won't give up."

Lorraine did not speak.

Sulfur chimed in, "Hmph, those three guys are nothing to fear. I, Magia Sulfur, will be the first to beat up the Panther armored vehicle! I'll flatten it, beat it until it's kneeling on the ground crying for its parents, begging for mercy like crazy, hahaha!"

Azure also said, "Nero and Alice are still just children, and Magia looks weak and frail. Even if it's a conspiracy, there's nothing to be afraid of, right? Perhaps... it's just a coincidence that more monsters have spawned these past two days. We can just clear them all out."

——

Faced with the three people's optimistic ideas.

Lorraine didn't say much, neither denying nor refuting.

after all.

All of this was indeed just his one-sided conjecture; he has been paranoid for quite some time now.

Lorraine replied.

"No matter what happens, when carrying out a mission, you must always be on high alert and pay attention to everything around you. Even after the battle is over, you must remain vigilant and never let your guard down. If anything happens, you must contact your teammates immediately."

"Yes!" x3

Lorraine hoped that all of this was just her worrying unnecessarily.

——

"Old Lin!"

Just then.

The white portal reappeared, and Waz rushed out, sweating profusely, and said, "It's terrible! It's terrible! The weather forecast headquarters received an alarm that dozens of monsters have spawned again in the city. They're scattered all over the city, scaring countless citizens who are screaming and running in circles. We have to get there to help them as soon as possible."
