Ning Yu could clearly see that the barrier was becoming weaker and weaker under the impact of the explosion, and the ripples were becoming more and more obvious.
She was even ready to use [Blood Mirror] to bounce the explosion away, but Ning Xuan's barrier was not broken in the end.
"What's going on?"
Ning Yu frowned. Although she was very familiar with this method of self-destruction, the man clearly had a desire to survive, but he seemed to be suddenly controlled by something and exploded directly.
If he really wanted to die, he could have just self-destructed the moment Ning Yu pierced his chest.
"Someone must have done something to him in advance."
Ning Xuan also had a solemn expression. The man was clearly about to say that someone else would come and capture Ning Yu, but it seemed that some mechanism was triggered, causing the man to enter the self-destruct program.
Ning Yu probably guessed this possibility.
"Is this the price you have to pay for being cybernetic?"
She asked casually, although one can gain supernatural powers similar to awakening through cyborgization, the fact that it is a mechanical and programmatic structure also gives people more opportunities to take advantage of.
"It's generally difficult to do this kind of thing because it requires very high permissions."
Ning Xuan summoned out the probe that was glowing with white light again and burned the man on the ground into powder.
Ning Yu saw that during the process, a prosthetic device integrated with the man's flesh and blood appeared inside his body.
They seemed to have replaced most of the man's internal organs, which were particularly difficult to melt, while his hands, feet and head retained their original appearance.
She was somewhat curious about how prostheses replaced the functions of internal organs and how they provided nutrition and energy.
But soon, Ning Xuan's high-temperature probe burned the man's prosthetic organs into black liquid.
"Sister, we should leave here as soon as possible."
"I suspect his final explosion will spread a signal, and the people who come to arrest you may use this signal to find you."
A big hole had been blown open in the small hotel. Ning Xuan was the first to walk through the hole to the door and looked up at the sky.
The early autumn sun fell on her silver bangs, casting a shadow on her forehead.
Ning Yu followed closely behind her and walked out from here.
I originally planned to rest here for a night, but now it seems that this place is not safe.
But the rewards here were quite rich. I earned a lot of points and weapon experience points, and also got rid of a small group of troublesome guys.
"If I'm not mistaken, the guy coming behind me will be a more difficult one. It's very likely that this guy behind me made him self-destruct because he didn't want to expose his identity."
Ning Yu made a reasonable inference.
"But the strange thing is, I think this is totally unnecessary, unless the person who came to capture my sister doesn't want others to know who captured my sister."
Ning Xuan also followed Ning Yu's logic and thought about why the other party did such a thing in advance.
The two of them cleaned up traces of the battle along the way. Some of the traces that could not be cleaned up had to be abandoned. They intended to do their best to prevent the other side from knowing their own combat effectiveness.
"It's simple. As you said, you are here to kill me."
Ning Yu shrugged indifferently.
"It's okay if you come. If you want to kill others, you must be prepared to be killed."
"That's what I think."
Ning Xuan nodded.
"Let's go, we're heading to the other side of the city."
Ning Yu opened the watch on her hand and a map of City A popped up. The wetland park where they were was only a few dozen kilometers away from the Ark base.
She didn't want the battle to affect Shen Yiyue, so she wanted to move the battlefield as far away as possible.
On the map on the watch, the light spots representing Shen Yiyue and Shen Qianqian were still in the old position, and their vertical height had not changed much, indicating that they were still in the apartment.
Seeing this, Ning Yu also breathed a sigh of relief.
The two had already arrived at the entrance of the runway. Ning Xuan had used a high-temperature probe to burn the bodies of the soldiers, along with their uniforms, into ashes, and then dumped them into the mud in the wetland.
After doing all this, Ning Xuan walked to Ning Yu's side, looked at the map on Ning Yu's watch and said, "Sister really cares about her."
Ning Yu put away his watch, glanced at Ning Xuan silently, and said nothing.
Shen Qianqian was reading comics in the living room as usual, but for some reason she couldn't concentrate.
She looked at the empty apartment. Ning Yu was not there and her sister was also out. Now she was the only one left and felt lonely.
“Knock, knock, knock.”
Hearing a familiar knock on the door, she quickly threw away the comic book she was not reading seriously and ran to the door to open it.
When I opened it, it was Shen Yiyue.
There was no expression on her face, her hair was still a little wet, and her clothes were obviously wet by the rain. She had a weapon box given to her by Ning Yu on her back, and a hook device on her arm.
"Where have you been, sister? I'm a little scared being home alone."
Shen Qianqian saw her sister getting caught in the rain, and ran over to get a tissue to wipe her face.
Ever since Ning Yu disappeared this morning, she always felt that her sister seemed to have become a different person, and even she herself became melancholy.
Originally, I must have stood up and laughed at my sister, but I just didn't feel like it.
A smile suddenly broke out on Shen Yiyue's face. She took the tissue handed to her by her sister and gently wiped her bangs that had become tangled due to the rain.
"My sister will be going out a few times recently. Can Qianqian help my sister look after the house?"
Shen Qianqian was a little hesitant. She originally wanted to act coquettishly and ask her sister to stay with her more at home, but when she saw her sister's expression, for some reason, she agreed.
"good."
She nodded obediently, and then added: "Sister, go take a shower quickly, or you will catch a cold later."
She pointed to the bathroom over there and motioned Shen Yiyue to go there quickly.
Shen Yiyue took off all her equipment, rubbed her sister's head, and prepared to take a shower.
She had just taken out her change of clothes when she noticed Shen Qianqian, who had sat back on the sofa, had been staring at her.
"What's wrong?"
She asked, looking at her dazed sister in confusion.
"Sister. Will Sister Ning Yu come back tomorrow?"
Shen Qianqian's tone was a little hesitant. After all, Ning Yu had just left today, and it seemed a little silly to ask such a question.
"Why, are you thinking about your sister Ning Yu?"
Shen Yiyue came over, put her hands on the sofa, leaned forward, and looked at her sister with a teasing look.
"No, I always feel that after Sister Ning Yu left, Sister became unhappy."
Shen Qianqian lowered her head and played with her nails, muttering softly.
"How could that be?"
"Sister Ning Yu will be back in a few days. She told me in advance~"
Shen Yiyue promised her sister, then turned around and went to the bathroom with the clothes.
