Chapter 54: Pisces City of the Sea Empire 02



The space beside Lu Zhi was distorted with a tiny fluctuation. She keenly sensed something and barely dodged the dagger that was heading for the carotid artery in her neck by turning sideways.

The distorted space was like a big net. The dagger controlled by him left a residual shadow in the air. Lu Zhi could only dodge by capturing the waves.

He failed to dodge in time and his neck was scratched with several cuts.

"Bitch! It's not too late to hand over the space now!"

Li Yongkang folded his arms complacently and leaned against the wall, his words revealing contempt and sarcasm from his eyes.

Unfortunately, Lu Zhi never waits to die.

He didn't seem to have mastered the essence of the space distortion technique. Lu Zhi vaguely grasped some patterns while dodging.

She tested it again and it proved it.

There was a playful smile on the corners of her lips, and the timidity that was constrained by others disappeared. She curled her lips confidently and even stretched out her hand to Li Yongkang in provocation.

The man's self-esteem and machismo were frustrated, and an invisible slap hit him hard in the face. Li Yongkang was so angry that his face turned red, and he stepped up his speed again in a rage.

...

...

The only martial arts in the world that cannot be defeated is speed. He just doesn’t believe that he can’t kill this woman today!

After figuring out the rules of space distortion and the sliding trajectory of the dagger in the air, Lu Zhi dodged calmly, looked at the man who was so angry that he gritted his teeth, and raised his middle finger.

"ah!"

When Wang Qiang, who was squatting beside the curb, heard the scream, he curled his lips in good spirits.

But then the smile on his lips faded, he stood up with a gloomy face, and ran quickly into the dark alley.

At this time, the smell of rust wafted in the dark alley. The calm and composed woman walked out of the 1.8-meter-tall aura, playing with the dagger on her fingertips, and playfully slashed at the man who covered his hand.

Li Yongkang's back teeth were clattering as he bit them, and his eyes were full of resentment and anger as he looked at Lu Zhi.

The emancipated serfs, who were not taken seriously by him, sang and turned to approach him. If this were to be told to others, it would surely lead to a lot of jokes.

Wang Qiang didn't expect that such a vase woman could hurt Li Yongkang.

He didn't think much about it and thought that Li Yongkang just underestimated his enemy.

Different from Li Yongkang's innate skills, Wang Qiang prefers speed.

A sharp wind blew in front of him, and Lu Zhi's eyes flashed. Before he could dodge completely, a large cut deep into the bone was made on his left arm, and blood gushed out.

An inexplicable faint light flashed in the dark beautiful eyes. Lu Zhi tilted his head to look at Wang Qiang who raised his chin, and rushed forward while throwing the dagger in his hand.

The shrill scream was suppressed by the bully before it could even get louder. There seemed to be something disgusting blocking the sobbing voice. Passersby turned their heads and curled their lips when they saw the woman walking out of the dark alley, then hurried back home.

The two men with bruised faces and noses cried with tears and snot, their mouths were stuffed with smelly socks, and their saliva soaked the fabric.

Lu Zhi rubbed his sore wrists, stretched, and then straightened his slightly messy clothes.

She simply bandaged her scarred neck and held her left arm tightly. The pulling motion ripped the torn skin and flesh, causing her to gasp in pain.

Now the destination is undoubtedly the pharmacy.

Aquarius City has advanced medical technology, and pharmacies are scattered throughout the streets and alleys. There is a chain pharmacy almost every few hundred meters.

After pushing open the door and walking in, the pharmacist who had just taken a break in front of the counter was forced to smile to greet the customer.

Lu Zhi simply sorted out the necessary medicines.

There were not many masks and gas masks in stock, so Lu Zhi took a quick look and bought them all with a wave of his hand. He had no shortage of money.

The sun did not rise from the west today. The clerk was tired physically but extremely excited mentally. He looked at Lu Zhi with shining eyes. After a light cough, he started selling in a rhythmic manner.

Lu Zhi: ...I have enough money, buy it!

As he walked away carrying large and small bags of medicine boxes, the clerk behind him couldn't help but count on his fingers happily as he calculated the commission.

Lu Zhi dodged into the telephone booth, cleared his hands, and continued to stroll around the city with ease, observing as he walked.

The love of Pisces City for the giant squid has reached the point of fanaticism. The plastic billboards on the streets, the portraits rolling between the high-rise buildings, and even the balloons dangling in the hands of children all have the image of the giant squid.

Perhaps it was a breakthrough, so Lu Zhi decided to go to his "birthplace" again, the strange offline prayer hall.

The prayer hall is close to the seaside. The whistling sea breeze carries a faint smell of sea and sea salt and blows towards the asphalt road. The seagulls fly away, leaving their excrement behind. The lucky ones who are hit by them stiffen their necks, blush and curse.

The door of the prayer room was closed. Lu Zhi did not choose to rush in, but walked slowly in the courtyard.

She noticed a stone tablet engraved with golden characters among the stone statues in the garden. She concentrated her attention and just walked forward to take a closer look, but before she could get a clear look, she heard a voice of expulsion from behind her.

Lu Zhi, who was driven out, stood blankly on the street. Not far away, a middle-aged woman with her hands on her hips, who was guarding against her fiercely, waved the big broom in her hand when she looked at her.

Although he didn't see it clearly, Lu Zhi also took a general look.

The reason why the giant squid is so sought after is that it can bring shelter to the maritime empire Pisces.

Looking around, there is endless inky blue sea all around. The weather is unpredictable, with strong winds and waves, even sea storms and seabed whirlpools that come unexpectedly.

The giant squid is a spiritual species developed by the Pisces Research Institute. It combines multiple genes, including those of humans.

The experimenters injected human memory and knowledge into the giant squid's brain, allowing it to possess human consciousness and emotions and think independently.

Walking all the way to the nearby toy stores, Lu Zhi browsed around with great interest and bought a soft keychain in the shape of a Q version of a giant squid, which was very lifelike.

Lu Zhi randomly found a dessert shop and sat down by the window. He raised his eyelids and glanced at the various figurines and peripherals pinned on the photo wall, all of which were related to squid.

After ordering a cup of hot cocoa and a small plate of delicious Matcha cake with bursting pearls, she opened her phone to search for more detailed information about the giant squid.

A flood of information popped up all at once, and the software was stuck at one point, which is a clear example.

One of the essential differences between humans and animals: complex emotions and cognitive abilities. The giant squid escaped.

The research institute was attacked, and the most successful experimental product Tao Zhiyao disappeared in the vast ocean, becoming the overlord of the sea.

It happened that the sea tide was coming, and they didn't expect that the escaped giant squid would take the initiative to block them and negotiate with them.

As for the content of the negotiations, Lu Zhi looked through most of the discussions and posts but couldn't find anything. All he saw was praise and admiration.

As a result, the giant squid became the patron saint of the empire, protecting the oceans around the empire from any maritime disasters.

The cold white screen was dim, and finally the phone went dark, leaving the woman's face in deep thought.

However, if everything were as beautiful as written, there would be no infinite flow game.

A small metal spoon scooped a corner of the cream and put it into the mouth. The lightly fishy and sweet cream spread between the lips and teeth.

Unaccustomed to the taste, Lu Zhi frowned slightly and silently put down the spoon.

Less than two minutes after the woman paid and walked out of the dessert shop, the door was pushed open by someone.

The curved glass door pulled the wind chimes hanging on the ceiling. The woman blinked her bright eyes and looked around, then smiled and greeted the man following behind her.

Qiao Bo suppressed the inexplicable joy and flattery that welled up in his heart, walked forward quickly, and said softly: "Yaoyao, order whatever you want to eat and I'll pay for it."
