Chapter 127 Four men's blood gushed out, the stench of blood sweet and metallic...
The employee in red suddenly shuddered.
Large, transparent tentacles suddenly lashed out, frantically lashing across the damp ground like wet vines, leaving sticky, meandering trails as they dragged.
The sound was like an entire ocean tide being squeezed into a narrow corridor, so intense it made one's eardrums ache.
The tentacles swept across, enveloping the nearest BEAM members almost instantly.
Gunfire suddenly intensified, flashes illuminating the narrow space. Bullets pierced the monster's gelatinous body one after another, splattering thick, transparent fluid. Its tentacles were torn to shreds, the severed ends still writhing wildly, like chopped-up limbs of a sea monster, emitting a stench of rotten flesh and blood.
Sang Li's eyes narrowed.
This monster won't last long.
After all, it was created from his own imagination, so its combat power was definitely not as good as that of ordinary soldiers.
Three minutes later, the tentacles were tattered and torn, like a shredded jellyfish, and could collapse into a puddle of rotting gel at any moment.
However, Sang Li felt alright and wasn't panicked at all.
Because she doesn't only have one.
"baby."
A deep, chuckled male voice came from the end of the corridor, where gunfire and darkness intertwined.
Lu Jin raised an eyebrow and looked up.
A man slowly emerged from the shadows.
The shaky light reflected off him, highlighting his pale skin and slender figure, as if he had stepped out of some bizarre dream.
Qin Ye.
Sang Li's name has been called out in countless otome game scripts.
Her favorite male lead.
"..."
Lu Jin: "Isn't having me enough?"
Sang Li couldn't help but curl her lips into a smile; the prank made her somewhat happy: "I can't help it, I like new things."
Qin Ye's steps were slow.
When he stepped completely into the light, Lu Jin finally saw him clearly and was speechless.
The man was wearing a combat suit made of transparent mesh.
The cold light penetrated the gossamer-thin fabric, outlining the taut muscle lines, the faint collarbone, and the rise and fall of the chest with each breath.
It's simply unbearable to look at.
Lu Jin narrowed his eyes, his finger on the trigger: "You're something else, Sang Li."
Sang Li, however, stared at Qin Ye with a smile, her eyes like those of a cunning cat, dangerously curious: "Look, isn't he very handsome?"
"..."
"You like this one?"
"So, will you wear it?"
"I won't wear it!"
Qin Ye raised his hand, shouldering the heavy weapon, and sparks flew. Bullets rained down, shaking the corridor. Casing shells clattered to the ground.
But soon, Lu Jin noticed something amiss.
The firepower was fierce, but it was as if it were seen through a curtain of water, lacking a sense of weight and realism.
In reality, they couldn't stop BEAM's firepower.
phantom.
It was all just an illusion in the end.
Sang Li: "..."
Look at how smug you are.
Although Lu Jin could certainly take on three opponents at once, BEAM had brought all sorts of new weapons to capture him, and he was worried that Sang Li would get hurt. Moreover, the number of BEAM squads gathering was increasing, and they were outnumbered, so it was better to play it safe and needed more firepower support.
Lu Jin watched coldly, then turned his head and whispered, "Sang Li, can't you let him fight properly?"
Sang Li blinked, rested her chin on her hand with a look of amusement, and replied with a smile, "He's fighting, isn't he cool?"
Lu Jin scoffed and gave a cold laugh: "Handsome? Didn't you see? He's flirting with you."
He had already seen it clearly: in the brief moment between pulling the trigger, Qin Ye actually turned his head and smiled at Sang Li.
nausea!
Seeing Qin Ye steadily drawing the fire, Lu Jin had an idea. He leaped like a cheetah and charged directly into the barrage of bullets.
It points directly at Qian Rujun!
"Tell him not to leave!" Sang Li shouted.
At the same time, it surged towards Qian Rujun's back like a raging sea.
Qian Rujun's pupils contracted, not expecting that Sang Li could control the monsters in the painting. These monsters were supposed to be controlled by the "person in the painting," but now they surged like a tidal wave, blocking his path.
Do all the monsters in the rules listen to Sang Li?
Seeing Lu Jin take down three BEAM members and charge towards him, he realized for the first time how terrifying Lu Jin's physical strength was.
Mingming, just a moment ago she felt that she had the advantage.
How did you do that?
No, retreat first, then retreat!
Without hesitation, Qian Rujun threw a black smoke grenade, instantly filling the narrow corridor with thick smoke. The BEAM team immediately provided cover, creating an escape route for him.
Lu Jin's vision was cut off by the thick smoke, and his eyes burned with pain.
This smoke... is no ordinary stuff; it seems to have been specially developed for him.
They specifically target their own senses to create disturbances.
He paused, leaned back slightly, and forced himself to regain his balance.
At this moment, Sang Li's figure emerged from the darkness. She gave a low shout, commanding the monster in the painting to press closer step by step, while simultaneously supporting Lu Jin's back.
The twisted tentacles, fish-headed monsters, and dried-up shark afterimages all rushed towards Qian Rujun and the BEAM team, making a series of yelping noises.
Qian Rujun's expression changed drastically.
Can something that's been smashed to pieces be restored?
Although it won't cause any harm, it will definitely be dangerous if it drags on for too long!
No matter how powerful the BEAM team is, they can only squeeze out a way to survive. These awful things are just too disgusting!
Dodge, cover, dodge again, and the monsters swarm in from all directions.
Lu Jin followed behind, the muzzle of his gun flashing coldly.
Sang Li jogged quickly, her fingers tracing lines in the air. The monster in the painting moved with her.
With a sweep of tentacles, the fish-headed monster flipped over, and the withered shark afterimage chased after it like a ghost, blocking all escape routes.
However.
I just caught up with them outside.
The sky suddenly split open!
The blinding light pierced the darkness like a knife, cutting directly into the aquarium.
BEAM's reinforcements have arrived.
A flash of light shone on the mist and the monster's afterimage, shattering the aquarium's magical spell and instantly transporting the aquarium from a nightmare into reality.
Sang Li immediately stopped, turned back to the prince statue, and kicked it twice.
She whispered, "Slo, stop pretending to be dead."
The statue swayed slightly, its golden hair fluttering, and its azure eyes slowly opened, revealing a cold and stern expression like that of a noble young man: "What is it?"
Sang Li: "Your painting is going to fail."
Slo's eyes flashed, a hint of surprise appearing in them: "It's you..."
He had obviously just woken up.
Sang Li raised her chin: "I need time."
Slo shook his head: "Didn't you know that once someone breaks through, there's nothing you can do? And they even developed a lot of weapons specifically targeting me." His eyes turned to surprise and delight. "But Lu Jin really didn't lie to me. You came to find me. I thought I was going to die here."
His fingers traced patterns in the air, as if touching an invisible painting: "However, we can only change the painting. After all, I am not invincible."
The light flickered slightly around him, as if the world was about to turn upside down at any moment.
Above the aquarium, the sky seemed to have been torn open by a sharp blade, and fragments of deep blue sky appeared to be sucked into the void.
Then, a thick cascade of seawater poured down, instantly submerging the ground and creating huge waves that crashed against the glass.
"I have to go."
Sang Li clenched her fists. She didn't want to leave, but she was outnumbered.
She called out, "Lu Jin!"
At this moment, however, Lu Jin charged toward Qian Rujun like an arrow released from a bow, his water splashes and tentacles swirling and blending into the battle.
Sang Li's eyes turned cold, and the tentacle monster surged in response, rising up like a tide and rushing over quickly. Its rough tentacles wrapped around Lu Jin, pulling him back from the pursuit and dragging him directly to Sang Li's side!
"Sang Li!" Lu Jin was angry, but he didn't struggle.
Sang Li: "There will be a next time."
Lu Jin was displeased.
The painting began to collapse from the inside out due to the violence.
***
The motorboat cut through the waves, creating white spray on the surface.
Sang Li wrapped her arms around Lu Jin's waist, pressed her face against his back, her heartbeat drowned out by the wind and waves.
Sloe crouched at the stern of the boat, his golden-brown hair blown around like a big golden retriever.
However, the pursuers were hot on their heels.
Several black speedboats sped up from behind, gunshots rang out in the night, bullets grazing the water and sending up a series of cold splashes.
"Have you forgotten how disheveled you were just now?" Sang Li rolled her eyes. "Aren't you afraid of falling into the painting again?"
Slow raised his hand: "I can also draw."
After leaving the painting, the new painting did not linger for long.
BEAM's reinforcements are everywhere, which is annoying.
Sang Li was so tired of being chased that she felt like throwing up.
If this continues, they'll definitely get caught.
Just then, a huge wave suddenly surged up from the sea.
The waves surged high, like the hand of the sea god lifting up from the abyss and crashing down on the pursuers!
The speedboat capsized, and screams were drowned out by the sea.
A silver ray of light, like the moon melting into the seabed.
Amber emerged from the crest of a wave, her fishtail shimmering in the water, her eyes sharp.
Around Him were countless other unorthodox entities that had been released.
Just as Sang Li was about to breathe a sigh of relief, a crack suddenly appeared in the water.
Chi Du emerged from the void, suddenly grabbed her wrist, and pulled hard.
Sang Li was forcibly pulled off the motorboat: "...Hey!"
Before she could struggle, she had already fallen onto another white speedboat.
The warmth behind Lu Jin disappeared. He turned around unhappily and glared at Chi Du: "Sang Li!"
Chi Du's expression was indifferent, as if he had planned everything all along: "Let's go."
Amber flicked her tail, and another giant wave crashed into the pursuing BEAM team, completely blocking their path. Slo was half-pushed, half-dragged onto the speedboat by Chi Du. He looked somewhat surprised, then started sniffling, "You guys finally came, boohoo."
“I’m here to deal with you. I haven’t settled the score with you for dragging Sang Li into the painting yet,” Chi Du said.
Sloan: "...Is it too late to go down now?"
Finally, the bow of the boat cleaved through the sea, and the group stood side by side, except for Lu Jin, who was left alone on the motorboat.
The sea breeze howled.
Chi Du turned around, his voice cold and sarcastic: "Go home by yourself."
There's no point in keeping it anyway.
Lu Jin: ?
Is this a case of discarding a donkey after it has served its purpose?
Lu Jin did not immediately retort, nor did he get angry because of Chi Du's rudeness.
The wind howled, but he only looked up at Sang Li on the boat.
His eyes were calm, yet like an undercurrent that could not be suppressed in the deep sea.
"be safe."
The voice was low and hoarse, carried away by the wind, yet it clearly reached Sang Li's ears.
Sang Li was taken aback, her heart tightened suddenly, and she was about to say something in response.
The next second.
Fresh blood gushed out, its sweet, metallic scent carried away by the sea breeze.
Lu Jin swayed, barely managing to steady himself by holding onto the motorboat, but he still couldn't help but lower his head, his shoulders trembling violently.
“Lu Jin!” Sang Li’s pupils shrank suddenly.
Sang Li's breathing became erratic, and she frantically tried to climb over the ship's side and jump off.
What's wrong?
It was fine just now?
Her mind went blank; she couldn't recall when Lu Jin had been injured. Why had he suddenly vomited blood? Why had it only become apparent now?
Come on up!
What else?
She couldn't possibly leave him alone at sea, much less stand by and watch the BEAMs take him away.
Just as Sang Li was about to jump, Chi Du grabbed her and whispered, "Are you crazy?"
"Bring him up here!"
"He was a member of BEAM, and he hurt you."
But in his heart, Chi Du cursed Lu Jin to the point of being furious.
How could someone like Lu Jin possibly get hurt? He just had to play the victim at a time like this. He really knows how to pick his timing! This man has become smarter this time. If he were to argue with her, Sang Li wouldn't be so agitated.
Amber frowned as she stood beside him: "You can feed it to the fish."
"Bring Lu Jin up now."
Chi Du cursed.
"OK."
He turned around and maneuvered the ship to pull Lu Jin aboard.
