Chapter 41 Performers (8) Jinjiang exclusively authorized the first release, protecting...
His body was illuminated by a strong light.
Ani didn't need light reaction to see things clearly like the Vine Tribe, but she didn't pay attention to the details of the injuries on Ling Xiao's body. After turning on the light and turning back, the other person's snow-white body suddenly came into view.
He is a slender but soft vine. The emerald hair was slightly curled, and the torn acrobatic costume had a big tear in it. The parts that did not need protection were covered by the fabric, and the parts that should be covered were exposed.
Clear juice with the scent of grass and trees seeps out of the cracks on the skin. Is this the blood of the Fuji clan?
Annie reached out and wiped the liquid on his snow-white skin with her thumb, paused for half a second, then brought it to her lips and licked it.
Ling Xiao suddenly looked up and stared at her in the blinding light. Ani tasted it and said, "It's a bit bitter."
"…That's blood," he said.
Mimics can analyze a lot of things through blood, and licking it directly is a way to obtain information. She couldn't secretly take out the tentacles under the supervision of the angel. If the tentacles were to merge with his vine tail and reach into his "possible" organ, Annie would definitely be able to become familiar with this mimicry immediately with only Ling Xiao as a sample.
Ani had no intention of understanding it further. After she made this overly aggressive, frivolous and teasing move, she turned around and searched the warehouse for some intact new clothes, opened the packaging, and put them on Ling Xiao, muttering as she untied the whip that bound him: "Is your body okay? Can you hold on? I think if you want to fight back, you'd better do it right away. It must have taken a lot of effort for them to not be able to find you and capture you."
Ling Xiao gathered his coat and pulled the colorful circus clothes to cover the pale pink spot on his chest. He said, "Now? Sure."
He looked at Ani: "I can lure them here so you can set up the trap in advance."
"That's great." The girl who had just interrogated him maliciously hugged him and thanked him happily. "Thank you for your hard work. Let's make a plan. Don't get caught."
Ling Xiao let her hug him stiffly.
-
Dawn was breaking in the sky, and the morning light was seeping through the clouds.
A ray of sunlight shone into the grand and majestic entertainment building. At the same time, Ani stepped out of the territory of the Crown Circus and stepped into the "isolation buffer zone" composed of several streets and alleys. She quickly blended into it like a fish entering the sea.
She was hiding on the platform of a low building without a railing, and in the morning light she saw the figures of two transformed warriors walking back side by side. Annie approached silently, lowered her heartbeat and breathing, and entered a state similar to hibernation of arthropods, carefully analyzing the prosthetic parts of the two people.
It is highly modified, with half of its body made of metal, a row of electromagnetic gun muzzles installed on its abdomen, most of its organs converted into metal, and its heart seems to be a power pump.
Annie stretched out her hand to estimate the distance and judge the diameter of the gun muzzle. Through careful observation and perception, he estimated the weight, gravity system, and metal model of the two people's legs when accelerating at full speed, and then turned into the narrow path agreed with Ling Xiao.
This is a dead end street with a high-hanging drainage pipe and brand new outdoor heating equipment about five meters high on both sides. Ani made all the arrangements and squatted above the equipment, as light as a leaf falling from a tall tree.
She touched the second joint of the middle finger of her glove and used a specific finger code to open the communicator. The communicator not connected to the Internet displayed the local time.
Northern Corona region, M359, sidereal time 6:30 am.
Annie listened silently for two seconds. The second hand moved and there was a planned noisy noise in the area where the two transformers passed - that was the sound of the two discovering Ling Xiao's trace.
This blood-sucking vine did not betray and run away.
Annie casually pulled the spider silk on her fingertips, and skillfully braided a hairband to tie up her loose hair again.
The injured trumpet owl exudes the scent of grass and trees. Annie moved the tip of her nose, and her sense of smell detected the other party's approaching figure before her vision...it was no exaggeration to say that it was approaching.
Green silk vines grew wildly and rushed through the streets, as if they were being chased in a panic. But if you look closely, you will find that each thin vine drills through the bricks and stones as it moves rapidly, and some even leave concave white marks on the embedded metal structures.
Ling Xiao is far from being as desperate as he looks. He climbed quickly and wildly, with the instinct of a plant taking root and absorbing everything. The flowing silk vines scraped across the ground, like laying another layer of emerald green carpet for the exaggeratedly colorful streets.
Behind him, electromagnetic bullets swept in rows, penetrating some branches and leaves, but most of them just fell on the colorful ground of the planet. Lingxiao turned into the alley, where a rich green gathered and countless flower vines entangled and turned into human shapes.
He glanced down at the ground, and when he looked back he inadvertently glanced at the heating device above his head. The entrance to the alley has been blocked by two tall modified cyborgs.
The two men approached slowly, with smiles on their faces.
"Escape? Run again?" The tall and strong man laughed, "There is a road to heaven but you don't take it, there is no door to hell but you break in. Where can you run to, huh?"
The other person had a thin body, but the assembled prosthesis was exceptionally strong. The transformed warrior made a clanging sound when walking: "A sneak attack from behind is courting death—"
Ling Xiao retreated all the way to the wall.
He raised his hand to button up the new dress, and Fujio gathered around him and said calmly, "Isn't this enough? Miss Ani."
The two were stunned for a moment. After the budding night, this name became well-known. The transformer suddenly turned around and looked behind him, but there was no one. The tall and strong man laughed sarcastically: "Ms. Annie? You are dreaming. When other hunters see their injured colleagues, they won't kill you as decisively as we do. Maybe the female hunter will enjoy you before killing you..."
The highly modified warriors have a very distorted concept of sex. The two men have no interest in the Fuji tribe, but they intimidate their prey with a grin, trying to see some stimulating expressions on his face.
"She is a mutant. Most mutants are deformed. That woman looks pretty on the surface, but who knows what she looks like without her pants. You should say thank you for dying in our hands—"
Ling Xiao is a hunter famous for his hidden assassinations.
He ranks high among the few, but almost everyone is not afraid to fight the Fuji Clan head-on. One of the skinny man's arms opened and turned into a chainsaw, rushing forward with a loud bang.
The mechanical chain saw was rolling and hissing, making my ears hurt. Ling Xiao's back was pressed against the wall. The thought of "transforming into vines and discarding part of my body" flashed through his mind. Just as the chainsaw was raised high and was about to chop down from above his head -
The chain saw stopped moving. The saw teeth made a terrible noise as they ground against each other, hanging in the air as if frozen.
The familiar girl's figure fell from the sky, five meters, which was as easy for an acrobat as walking down stairs. She landed lightly on the transformer, her feet firmly on his shoulders, and grasped the energy tank at one end of the chainsaw with one hand. Those slender fingers tightly grasped the huge metal weapon, making the skinny man unable to move. Her fingertips were suddenly covered with biological armor, and the dark poisonous stinger pried into the energy compartment, gouging out the energy block like opening a lock.
Ani patted the Transformed Warrior's head with her other hand and said with a smile, "Is that brain tissue in there? 6513."
This is his ranking. Ani didn't know his name, so she could only call him according to the ranking provided by Ling Xiao. She asked with a smile and in a friendly tone, but as she spoke she twisted her wrist and poked into the last human bone in his skull.
Click.
The bone cracked, and Ani reached in to find the integrated panel that connected the body and brain of the transformed warrior. The skinny man who was caught let out a miserable howl: “Ahhhhhhhhhh!!!”
He shook his body wildly, but there was only the sound of liquid and semi-solid being stirred in his cochlea. She searched his brain, among the metal, circuits, and various integrated chips. The Transformer seemed to be held by a strong monster on his head, and no matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't get out.
Until the end, he swung the chainsaw with a startled scream, and cut his own prosthetic body without knowing the direction. In the final frenzy of the prey's fight for its life, Annie was finally thrown out.
She found her balance in the air, tiptoed gently to the other side of the dead end, and shook her hands.
Between two fingers wearing blood-stained white gloves was a connection integrated circuit board that had lost power. Ani's eyes passed through the two cyborgs and flicked towards Ling Xiao, smiling: "Look, I finally found it."
Her voice was answered by the sound of one of the transformed warriors completely collapsing.
Now, the only person in front of her was the tall and strong transformer.
Sweat dripped down his forehead as he struggled hard to escape. But the ground in the alley was covered with dense white silk threads, which restricted his ability to run to almost zero. Just like being in a quagmire, the harder you push, the deeper it appears.
No different from captured insects.
Ani walked towards him.
As she approached silently, the skinny man's body completely lost all life, with only the few remaining muscle groups twitching physiologically. One step, two steps...
The psychological pressure she brought was too great.
The tall and strong man went crazy. Two rows of electromagnetic gun muzzles lit up on his abdomen, and he released his firepower recklessly. The electromagnetic bombs are quiet but as dense as rain.
When this kind of bullet hits biological armor, it will be bounced away immediately without leaving even a white mark. Annie hooked her hand around her waist, and the long metal whip wrapped around her body swept down large amounts of electromagnetic bombs like a ferocious python.
The whip wind carried a trace of electric arc, and the arc light followed the long metal whip to weave another layer of web. She kept moving at the same pace, not caring if a few fish slipped through the net and brushed against the ends of her hair or burned the corners of her clothes.
"Don't kill me, don't do it...ah!" The tall and strong man's face turned pale, and all the electromagnetic bullets were used up. He stepped back in horror, trying to pull his feet out of the spider web.
Followed by a scream. Annie pinched the cyborg's throat with one hand. She raised her eyebrows and said softly, "Trachea?"
The delicate face came closer and asked curiously, "Didn't you modify this place as well?"
"Ms. Ani." He forced a smile that was uglier than crying. "I don't want to become completely crazy. Please let me go. From now on, I am yours. This life is yours. You treat me like a dog--"
"No." Ani said with disdain, "There are many people who want to be my dog. You are too ugly."
Too ugly...
When hearing this comment, Ling Xiao suddenly realized the truth that he would be "interrogated".
It is because of her good looks that she is qualified to be interrogated.
The tall and strong man stared with his eyes wide open. His last plea for mercy failed. He was on the verge of collapse. Instead, he laughed twice, "Hehe". The two laughs came out of his throat strangely, and at the same time, the beeping alarm sound of the self-destruct system being activated was also heard.
perish together? !
Ani's eyelids twitched. Amid the rapid explosion alarm, the man roared madly: "I will kill all of you! I will kill this world, I--" The shouting stopped abruptly.
She twisted off the noisy pipe, and her first thought was to determine whether she had time to dismantle it. Her dismantling skills were at a high level taught by a university.
After Annie concluded that there was no time to stop the explosion, she immediately pulled up Ling Xiao, grabbed his collar, and pulled them both up with a spider silk tied to a high drainpipe.
The extremely tough silk thread suddenly stretched straight in the air, and after it flipped over the drain pipe and heating equipment, it was too late to dodge, and the rapid alarm sounded to the limit.
Boom!
The ground shook and everything around was shaking.
Annie pressed Ling Xiao under her arm with her backhand, and used the arm covered with biological armor to protect his head and shoulder near his heart. The fire wave hit, and everything behind him flickered in the huge vibration. The equipment under his feet was licked by the flames and the drain pipes melted in the high temperature.
But something else took their place, supporting her. Annie glanced and saw flower vines climbing on the wall. The skin on her back was not burned by the explosion. She turned her head and saw green everywhere.
Countless branches and leaves come together to form a flower wall.
Ani was stunned for a moment and looked at him in surprise: "Uh, you..."
Ling Xiao lowered his head and spat out a mouthful of blood.
It is human blood, bright red. The vine family is very similar to plants, but not entirely. Ani raised her hand and wiped his red lips: "Is the vitality of plants really that strong? Why do you dare to stop them?"
"You are so light." His flower vines seemed to have no weight. Ling Xiao said these words without any context, and then asked, "Then why did you block it?"
Ani took it for granted: "If you die, where can I find the pair of genetic warrior sisters?"
Ling Xiao said: "If I don't show my worth, you will get rid of me too in a little while."
Ani's eyes widened: "Are you going to use the emotional capital of comrades and friends and helping me to kidnap me?!"
Ling Xiao looked up, their eyes met, and their noses brushed against each other: "Is it not possible? Miss Annie, you don't care about feelings at all?"
"Please, it was you who was chased for eight hundred miles because you backstabbed your ally. You want me to talk about friendship with someone like you." She complained in a low voice, "Unnecessary sacrifice is very troublesome. I can heal myself, but you can only spit out a mouthful of blood weakly and fall into my arms."
Ling Xiao's face darkened and his voice turned cold: "I haven't fallen yet."
"I think it's almost time. Listen," said Ani.
He listened attentively and heard the alarms going off all around him - the noise was too loud, and the disturbed Omnics were on their way. Those infected Omnics were best at "eliminating the virus" and "clearing faults", but they were too lazy to determine what a virus and a fault were.
Before he could react, Annie had already pulled him up, along the balcony of another floor, over several guardrails, and quickly fled the explosion area.
The two fled wildly across the city's heights. This is a city made up of countless circuses of all sizes, with performance venues, ribbons, festive salutes, colorful ground spray paint and exaggerated murals everywhere. The hydrogen balloons in the amusement park flew high into the sky, shining in harmony with the countless red alarm lights.
The morning breeze is like a surging wave.
Ling Xiao opened his eyes against the wind. His eyes were cold and tears were streaming down his face, but he stared at her flowing hair intently.
He had been on various bloody hunting missions, and most of the time he had no time to think about anything else. His mind was spinning like a clockwork puppet, but in the moment when he was caught and running for his life, just this moment, everything seemed like a gorgeous and empty dream.
Ling Xiao's mind was blank, and his body was losing all its strength during this high-intensity escape. Annie pulled him off a high platform and hid in a robot factory. The injured vines could not support him and he fell down because his legs went weak.
Fallen into the huge machinery of the factory.
Falling into an embrace that exudes a certain fragrance.
Ani hugged him with one hand, with an expression of "I knew it" on her face. She pointed at the rumbling machine below and said, "If you fall down, you'll be crushed into mud. Be alert."
Flower mud...what...
His lack of reaction made Ani think that her voice was too soft, so she leaned close to his ear and said seriously, "It will turn into sticky flower jam."
Flower sauce?
Ling Xiao's empty mind finally came back to his senses, and he turned back into a battle-hardened, rational hunter. His expression changed slightly, and his tone was clearly patient: “Thank you, next time don’t say that while saving someone… I will be more grateful to you.”
Annie didn't realize his implicit meaning: "Anyway, if I fall down, I will turn into a ball of crushed jelly that gets mixed up. Well, you won't understand even if I tell you." No one would understand except Imorius, who had seen her prototype. Imorius was probably busy making money. How could a tycoon have time to watch the live broadcast of a B-level hunting ground?
There is no advanced intelligence in the factory, only a few programmed AIs and simple machines performing operations. A Ni found a place for Ling Xiao to sit down and let him rest for a while, then said, "Such a big thing has happened. What do you think the two sisters will do?"
"They were still chasing me last night, and today they killed two of them." Ling Xiao said, "They probably guessed that I had external help."
"These omnics only follow their own programs. They have their own logic. It's hard to get help without some effort." Ani thought for a while, "Do you think they will escape?"
"No." Ling Xiao said, "Song Zhen and Song Shuang's strength ranks among the top in this match. Moreover, this pair of sisters have a very good tacit understanding. Since their debut, no one even knows Song Shuang's ability. They will be enraged and manic, thinking this is a provocation and want to kill you."
Ani sighed and muttered, "Why do you have to pick on me? Is it because my performance was so wonderful?"
Ling Xiao was silent for a few seconds, then said: "Yeah."
After the night of budding, her ranking was the highest among the hunters.
"Okay." She calmed herself down quickly and said to herself, "A man who is not envied is a mediocre person. This old proverb was taught to me by my teacher. I am a genius and hardworking. Well, being excluded is my fate, I know..."
Ling Xiao thought to himself that the audience would not like you if you were so narcissistic. Just as he thought of this, a light screen rose up next to him, and the Angel's Eye gently rotated on the screen.
The synthesized male mechanical voice was pleasant to the ear, but cold and emotionless: "Thank you for the gift."
"Oh." Ani looked at the screen, and she came over to do business obediently. On it is a huge paid bullet screen with a gold border, which reads "Ah, Ani, baby is so cute, I love you, you must always be so confident, baby... "
Ling Xiao saw the content: "..."
Ani made a heart shape with her hands towards the center of the screen. This time she was much more skilled in her job and said sweetly, "Thank you for the gift from the sponsor, Pink True Love. Bobo, mommy."
For some reason, she felt much more relaxed when she heard the audience's endlessly pampered nonsense in the comments. Unlike the strong and aloof Lady Wenhong, calling her "Mom" makes you feel like you have been incorporated into the Archon's territory and are under her rule.
The light screen paused for two seconds and slowly disappeared.
After the death of the two transformers, the number of surviving hunters has now dropped below fifty.
-
"There are so many people who want to be my dog. You are too ugly."
When this sentence was broadcast on the huge screen, the atmosphere in the Night Owl suddenly changed.
The Star Pirates are a loose organization. From the second in command, the third in command... all the way to the fifteenth brother, none of them is not a loyal viewer of the hunting live broadcast. Ever since the second-in-command followed the boss to meet the "sister", he searched for Ani's video clips on the Star Network - and was once again amazed by her beauty!
A group of burly cyborgs, so burly that the ground trembles when they walk, squat beside the largest virtual light screen of the Night Owl on time, and serve as Annie's loyal audience when she is bored in her spare time.
When the eldest brother passed by for the first time, he took a step back with a lollipop in his mouth, glanced at the screen, and said in a cold tone: "Oh, so cute, I am fascinated by you all."
The stubborn cyborg was completely unaware: "That's right, the boss's sister is our sister!"
Ling Yi San bit off the stick of his lollipop and tortured a truckload of pirates to death under the pretext of training. He didn't have time to watch the live broadcast for three to five days.
The second time he walked into the cabin where the live broadcast was being broadcast, he looked up and saw the picture of Ani.
Ling Yi San paused and was unable to come back to his senses for a long time. Until the words "There are many people who want to be my dogs" sounded on the screen... the pirates wailed and used the smooth metal surface as a mirror.
It seems like they are competing to see who is qualified to be their sister's dog.
He pulled the corners of his mouth, unable to smile, and fiercely kicked the nearest cyborg, speaking in a voice so cold that ice chips were falling off his face: "You are still taking photos when you are like this, you idiot. If I didn't know it was a cyborg, I would have thought it was someone's crushed tomatoes."
Ling Yi San has this kind of temper. The pirate who was kicked didn't realize that he was really unhappy. He pretended to cry a few times and said smugly: "The boss is still qualified."
"Psycho." He was silent for a long time, and then cursed out a non-aggressive sentence, "What's wrong with your brain?"
The second in command came over and pulled the man away. He consoled him, "Chief, we just had a little quarrel, didn't we? My sister is so precious, what's wrong with giving in to her? Can we really never see each other again? Just give in. What's there to be angry about—"
Zero One Three said sinisterly, "I can't swallow it."
The second in command was speechless. He was so worried that he wanted to light a cigarette, but he didn't dare to smoke in front of him, so he said, "We can't just stand here, Boss. You locked yourself in the room and didn't say a word. What are you thinking about? We haven't worked for half a month. There will be hunting missions in a while, and we have to work for the Freedom Alliance... Oh, by the way, this target is close, you see."
Zero One Three glanced over.
The new bounty on Rednet was posted anonymously, with the target's star location and several possible locations marked. The name was -
"Mo Wan?" Ling Yisan paused, then suddenly smiled, "Tsk, I was just about to find him. I wanted to ask him if he was really that good at serving women."
"..." The second in command looked shocked, "What? Did he serve our sister-in-law?!"
Before he could finish his words, he was kicked far away by his boss. Ling Yi San gritted his teeth, his face full of depression, and said, "Shut up and go to hell."
