In such a creepy, gloomy and terrifying atmosphere, suddenly there was a shrill baby cry! Regardless of whether the place we are in is appropriate or not, just the sudden sound of a baby crying without any warning in this empty and lonely environment is enough to make people feel creepy and terrified, right?
Before everyone could react, Nan Rongni ran towards the direction where the baby's crying came from without hesitation.
Zizhou on the side had a look of astonishment and confusion on his face. He stared at Ai Jiangtu with wide eyes and asked him in disbelief.
"Are you sure that woman is from the Nanrong family? You know, her family is a famous marine family!"
Not to mention Zizhou who found this unbelievable, even Ai Jiangtu himself was full of suspicion and felt that Nan Rongni's behavior was simply incomprehensible.
"Perhaps... maybe it's because she has a kind nature? That's why she rushed forward without caring about anything."
Ai Jiangtu gave this explanation hesitantly, but even he felt it was a bit far-fetched.
Ai Jiangtu was unsure of what to say, because he really didn't know what to say. Any normal person would know that the sound of a baby crying here was strange, but Nan Rongni quickly went to find the baby when no one else could react. This could only mean that Nan Rongni knew what it was, and she was sure that nothing would happen in the end, or she had some plan.
Everyone else present heard the conversation between Zizhou and Ai Jiangtu. The originally anxious expressions on their faces revealed complexity. Even Mu Tingying, who usually got along well with Nanrong Ni, couldn't help but look down on him.
There was obvious surprise in Mu Ningxue's beautiful eyes, and her delicate face was slightly moved by this sudden situation. Obviously, everything that happened before her eyes was completely beyond her original expectations. You know, before this, she had never thought that Nan Rongni would be like this!
Mu Ningxue's hands, which had been tense and ready to deal with any emergency, slowly relaxed. As the muscles in her hands relaxed, the tense atmosphere around her seemed to ease slightly.
At this moment, everyone present had quietly changed their opinion of Nan Rongni. However, it is difficult to accurately judge from people's expressions whether this change will be directly reflected on their faces. Some people may be able to hide their true inner thoughts very well, making it difficult for others to see; while the expressions of others may appear a little subtle, but not enough for people to see at a glance what they are really thinking at the moment. In short, although everyone’s impression of Nan Rongni is different from before, how each person views this new cognition is still as elusive as a fog.
Nan Rongni saw the wrapped baby not far away, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and the smile on the corner of his mouth seemed to brighten a little.
Nan Rongni went up and picked up the baby, but who knew that it was not a baby at all, but a white weeping demon, which disguised itself as a baby's cry to attract people to come forward and kill the wizard.
“Ah!~”
Nan Rongni panicked and dropped the monster in her arms, screaming as she dodged the White Weeping Demon's attack.
The people who saw all this from a distance began to prepare to rescue Nan Rongni. Even if they disliked Nan Rongni's plan, Nan Rongni was the healing mage of their team, and they would not give up Nan Rongni no matter what.
"Ice lock!"
Just as Zizhou raised his arm slightly, a mysterious and powerful force gushed out from his hands. In the blink of an eye, a chain of ice shining with cold light appeared beside Nan Rongni like a spirit snake. The ice chain seemed to have life. It quickly wrapped around Nan Rongni's body and tied her up tightly at an astonishing speed.
As Zizhou waved his arm, the ice chain dragged Nan Rongni, like a meteor across the sky, rushing away in the direction away from the Baiqi Demon. However, how could the White Weeping Demon easily let its prey escape? Its blood-red eyes flashed with anger and greed, and several thick and sticky tentacles suddenly stretched out, trying to catch the retreating Nan Rongni.
However, Zizhou's reaction speed far exceeded Baiqiyao's imagination. His figure flashed, and he shuttled through the air like a ghost, and the strength and direction of the ice chain in his hands were controlled with exquisite skill. Facing the tentacles extended by the White Weeping Demon, Zizhou was not afraid at all. He skillfully avoided their entanglement and did not give the White Weeping Demon any chance to take advantage.
In the end, with Zizhou's full efforts, Nan Rongni was successfully pulled towards them and out of the control of the Baiqi Demon. The whole process is like a thrilling life-and-death battle, which makes people's heart beat faster and their breathing quicken.
"Li Kaifeng, go ahead!"
Zizhou didn't want to catch Nan Rongni at all, so he asked Li Kaifeng who was a little further away to catch him. Nan Rongni's rapid movement made Li Kaifeng nervous. What the hell was going on? It is true that he can catch Nan Rongni by himself, but he is a little weak at this speed!
Kailifeng used the wind system to assist in relieving the momentum, and only then was he able to catch Nan Rongni.
Mu Tingying stepped forward to check on Nan Rongni, and after confirming that Nan Rongni was not injured, she nodded to Ai Jiangtu to indicate that there was no problem.
Ai Jiangtu looked forward at Nan Rongni, feeling a little conflicted. He didn't know what to say to Nan Rongni. If he told her not to act like a demon, but she was a girl, it would be detrimental to the future development of the team if he didn't say anything.
Ai Jiangtu hadn't said anything yet, but Zhao Manyan didn't suppress his sharp tongue.

"Nan Rong Ni, what's wrong with you? Don't you have common sense? How can there be a baby on a naval battlefield like this?"
Nan Rongni's face turned pale instantly, and she didn't know how to answer, because she had sensed from just now that Mu Tingying and the others' attitude towards her was not right, as if they knew something.
"If a baby really does this, wouldn't that be too pitiful!"
Nan Rongni, who thought she was being righteous, waited for them to acknowledge her kindness, but after waiting for a long time, no one spoke for her.
With doubt, Nan Rongni looked up at the others, but all she saw were the indescribable expressions on their faces. Feeling increasingly uneasy, he asked weakly.
"What's wrong?"
Zizhou sighed, thinking that it was not appropriate to continue this topic in the current situation, so he spoke meaningfully.
"We need to have trust in each other as a team, but we are fine with some scheming. However, some things depend on the situation. If you really don't want to be in the team, we won't force you. Our country is not short of powerful healing mages."
Zizhou said this and walked away without waiting for Nanrongni to react.
Seeing this, Zhao Manyan followed Zizhou and left. Seeing that there was nothing for her to do, Mu Ningxue also left.
Ai Jiangtu looked at Nan Rongni and expressed his attitude.
"Don't think that this team is full of idiots. You are eroding everyone's trust in you!"
After saying this, Ai Jiangtu no longer paid attention to Nan Rongni. Now he needed to keep an eye on the situation of the mermaid after this high tide.
At this moment, Nan Rongni's heart sank suddenly, because she clearly realized that these people actually saw through her deeply hidden little thoughts. How is this possible? She couldn't help but wonder to herself. You know, she always felt that her performance was flawless and extremely realistic. Even if it was not flawless, it would definitely not reveal any obvious flaws! What went wrong? Do they have extraordinary insight, or did they inadvertently make a small but fatal mistake? Countless questions flooded into Nan Rongni's mind like a tide, making him feel anxious and uneasy.
The others no longer cared about Nan Rongni. Anyway, Nan Rongni was safe now, and they didn't have time to care about these things.
