"How come you can also be forcibly teleported?" The scene before him suddenly changed, and Lian Han was surprised.
“They’ll basically all be able to do it after 3S,” Ning Jue said. “Lian Han, do you understand what it means to have self-respect and self-love?”
"Take care of yourself and respect yourself."
"Did you manage to do it?"
"I didn't lose."
Lian Han retorted, but his weak tone clearly lacked confidence.
What if we lose?
"That's impossible."
I mean, if.
After Ning Jue finished speaking, seeing that she didn't say anything, he said, "Before fighting you, Bing Mo also thought he wouldn't lose."
Lian Han pursed her lips. "Then kill him. I said I'd be his woman, not that I had to obey his every word. He bought a strange beast pet, and then it bit him to death. Can you blame the beast for that?"
Why are you comparing yourself to a mythical beast? Ning Jue raised an eyebrow. "Nonsense."
"The assumption was flawed to begin with. With my 2S strength and so many cards, how could I possibly lose to that idiot?"
"That's too hasty. Are those three people really that important?"
Lian Han looked up at him and said seriously, "Is it that important?"
“Over the years, I’ve met and seen a lot of people, but in the end, I’m all alone. Well, not entirely alone, because Xiao Mei is still here. But An and the others are my second, third, and fourth. If I can’t even protect my friends, what else can I do?”
The girl looked at him and calmly stated her thoughts, but Ning Jue couldn't bring himself to say anything harsh. She was still a child at heart, most afraid of loneliness, and therefore cherished her few friendships.
"This will not be repeated."
Lian Han nodded.
"Then let's talk about the next question. What's wrong with your mental strength? Don't even think about lying. Others might not be able to tell, but do you think I can't see that your mental strength is fluctuating unstablely?"
"I was mentally exhausted the day before yesterday, but I'll be fine in a few days."
Ning Jue looked at her, and suddenly activated his mental power, instantly enveloping Lian Han!
Lian Han's expression changed, and she immediately wanted to log off, but she was too close to Ning Jue. Before she could even touch the smart device, she was grabbed.
Feeling the immense spiritual power surging into his sea of consciousness, Lian Han asked in a harsh tone, "You don't believe me?"
"Let me check."
It wasn't that he didn't trust her, it's just that this girl had a criminal record. And if she wanted to lie, she could actually get away with it. Last time with the surveillance network, he saw Lian Han beat up Han Ningshu; she was injured then too, but in the end, she still managed to fool him.
Lian Han looked unwell, but he was extremely anxious.
The old man should have hidden the system well, right? He should—but if it's discovered, how will she explain it? She'll definitely be sent to the lab and dissected!
“My mental energy is indeed just exhausted,” Ning Jue said.
Just as Lian Han breathed a sigh of relief, he heard the other party continue, "I see several cards in your sea of consciousness, one of which seems to have the aura of rules?"
Lian Han's heart tightened. "That's my business."
Ning Jue seemed to be deep in thought. That aura seemed somewhat familiar; he should have encountered it somewhere before.
"Aren't you going to let go? I have class this afternoon!"
Ning Jue's gaze swept across her face. "Let me see the God-level card."
"On what grounds?"
"Because I'm off today, I have plenty of time to waste with you."
After Ning Jue finished speaking, her tone softened, "I'm just taking a look. You won't lose anything by taking it out."
He remained silent, even in the cold.
"Then let's just wait it out." Ning Jue opened his smart device, first setting his birthplace to be permanently offline, and then released his hand.
Lian Han: ...
[Old man~]
The girl's tone was almost plaintive, "[Ahem, who knew he'd suddenly attack your mind? The rest of us who survived could only hide ourselves. You have at least five or six cards in your mind, who remembers that little butterfly card?]"
[What should we do then?] Lian Han looked at Ning Jue, who had sat down, with a headache.
[This kid still has doubts. Even if you run away this time, he'll definitely ask again next time. Why don't you confess and get leniency?]
[The thought of my mother sharing a bed with him for over a month makes me sick.]
Judging from Lian Han's tone, Xing Yucheng knew she wasn't afraid to speak, so he encouraged her, "[Now it's your turn to annoy him. Be honest.]"
That's true. What's he going to do to her now? Lian Han thought for a moment, then took a deep breath. "Let's make this clear first. No matter what you think after seeing the card, you can't come after me."
What can I possibly want from you?
"Just to be on the safe side. Surely the General wouldn't go back on his word."
"Okay, I promise you."
Lian Han nodded, summoned the Butterfly Shadow Card, and handed it to him.
As the card appeared, Ning Jue felt an increasing sense of familiarity with the aura. This wasn't—seeing the figure on the card, General Ning's face turned from white to red to black, a rather striking sight. It took him a long time to find his voice, "She's a card?"
"Mm." Lian Han nodded.
General Ning: ...
"Give it back to me when you're done reading it."
Lian Han reached for the card in his hand, but saw him with a complicated expression, pouring his spiritual energy into the card.
Lian Han: !?
"What are you doing?" A flash of blue-purple light appeared, the card disappeared, but Lian Han changed, gradually transforming into the appearance in the card.
Ning Jue felt that even the King Insect's desperate attack hadn't had as much of an impact on him as this. "What is this?"
"Ahem. The shadow cards in the god-level cards affect their master, so I've already told you not to cause me any trouble."
I won't cause you any trouble.
Lian Han put away the Butterfly Shadow Card and returned to his original state. "Then hurry up and grant me access. I'm leaving."
I absolutely must never go to someone else's birthplace again.
Where are you going?
"Go to class. Uncle, calm down."
"You're sleepy."
"What? I slept for a whole day and night, I don't..."
Before the words had even faded, Lian Han felt an irresistible wave of drowsiness wash over her, and she collapsed. She vaguely sensed someone catching her.
Xing Yucheng: ...
This kid's really got some skills using his Word of Power talent!
Ning Jue was unaware that someone was watching. He looked at the sleeping girl with a complicated expression, then picked her up and walked to the control panel at the birthplace. He pressed a button and appeared in a bedroom.
After placing the person on the bed, Ning Jue lifted Lian Han's left wrist and activated the AI. The AI's iris recognition authentication was completely ineffective in front of him. Then, Ning Jue found the communication panel.
Lian Han's contact list only had a dozen or so people. Ning Jue skipped over the few whose contacts were all family members, pausing for a moment at "Ling Xiaozhe." Then she looked at her usual friends: An He, Jing Yuan, Xiao Ye Ying, Sister Mu Xue, Xiao Mei, Xiao Rui, Fatty, Han Er, Han Yuqi, and Uncle?
Ning Uncle Jue: ...Is he that old?
Then, remembering that it was he who had made her call him "uncle" in the first place, General Ning sent a message with mixed feelings.
Then he looked at the contacts on the communication panel again, wrote down their nicknames and real names, and turned off the AI.
Turning to look at the sleeping person, Ning Jue remained silent for a long time before gently tapping her forehead and standing up.
He shouldn't have knocked her unconscious; he acted impulsively. He should find a quiet place to calm down right now.
