Is she the target? Lian Han wondered. Wasn't this someone who had been chased by the military and had nowhere else to go, so they took a hostage?
Thinking this, she asked. Yi Jun sneered, "The leader of these guys, that guy named Abel, is not someone to be trifled with. It would be strange if the military could find them without his tacit approval."
"It seems you know them quite well. Are they from the heavens? But why am I their target?"
"Because of the adults."
Lian Han was taken aback, realizing that the adult he was referring to was Shen Liang from the medical ward.
Still unable to find Lian Han, Yi Jun temporarily relaxed and began to explain to her: "Another group of people from the heavens believe that you, sir, gave you the treasure that would grant him longevity, and they want to keep it for themselves."
"Wait a minute, when did you give it to me? I didn't know." Lian Han frowned. Shen Liang only gave her a little red flower! Nothing else.
“They’ve already made up their minds,” Yi Jun said helplessly.
"So you want me to take your things back?" Lian Han raised an eyebrow.
“They probably want to tie you up and take you back to threaten us.”
"That depends on whether they have the ability!" Lian Han sneered, then asked, "Wait a minute, aren't these people already involved with the Blood Nether Palace? Why would they still be eyeing your things?"
"Immortality and eternal youth—no matter how beautifully the Blood Nether Palace describes it, nothing beats seeing it for yourself. And the fact that you, sir, have lived for nearly four hundred years is exactly what this 'real' is."
"That's true." Shen Liang is definitely the longest-lived human to date, excluding that monster Cang Ming.
"What do we do now?" Lian Han asked. "Should I just save you directly?"
"No. It's not a good idea to alert these people. You'd better go back and call your father or Master Jingli. You can't handle a 2S-level opponent."
Lian Han: "Thank you for your concern. But I forgot to tell you, I'm currently a 2S-rank, and I have cards. Just tell me what else I need to be careful about here."
Yi Jun: ...
Can a 2S who has emerged from slaughter be the same as a newly broken 2S? But thinking of that top-grade Liz card, Yi Jun fell silent, then said, "Pay attention to their leader. The military hasn't taken any action yet because of the detonator in his hand. That thing is connected to the top-grade explosives on Ling Ze's body."
Why don't you have any on you?
“My dad’s still alive, so they won’t kill me. It’s perfect for threatening him,” Yi Jun said listlessly.
Lian Han: ...
Why does it feel like he's unhappy that the other party didn't plant a bomb on him? Is this guy out of his mind?
"Wait. I'm about to make my move."
"Hey! You still haven't said how to do it. Are you going to leave the explosives on your brother?" Yi Jun tried to call her back, but she had already withdrawn her mental energy and left.
Lian Han certainly wouldn't ignore Ling Ze; he was her cousin, and the reason she had come to the wasteland.
But she had already figured out the specifics of how to proceed. Perhaps out of consideration for the Ling family, the other party didn't dare implant the bomb into Ling Ze's body; they simply tied it to his body, which made Lian Han's current actions easier.
As a ray of light, she easily approached Ling Ze, found the Illusion Card to cover the area around Ling Ze so that others could not see anything unusual, and then used her mental energy to form a blade to silently separate the special bomb.
Having confirmed that the illusion simulation was working properly, Lian Han raised an eyebrow, dragged the bomb away from the two hostages, and placed it near the leader that Yi Jun had pointed out. She also used an illusion card for cover—Lian Han found that setting up illusions seemed quite easy for her in her butterfly state, as the mental energy output of the same illusion was far less than usual. But considering the butterfly god-level setting, she understood.
"Can we walk?"
Lian Han's mental fluctuations reappeared. Yi Jun was taken aback for a moment, then quickly replied, "Okay."
“Very good. When Liz uses her ultimate skill later, you carry Ling Ze and leave, understand?” Lian Han nodded.
Yi Jun's eyelids twitched. "Wait a minute, you want me to carry a human bomb around? Did I offend you?"
"Of course I've taken care of the bomb. Let's begin." Lian Han said, easily breaking Yi Jun's handcuffs, while simultaneously summoning Li Zi and issuing battle orders.
Liz's combat prowess was evident from the time she killed her own kind of insects, and she hadn't fought in a long time, so she was quite excited to hear Lian Han's battle orders.
He kicked a nearby guard away with one kick, and stood back to back with Lian Han, who had retracted the Butterfly Shadow Card.
"Xiao Han, just watch my performance!" Liz's smile was bloodthirsty.
To Abel and his men, this meant that two women had suddenly appeared out of nowhere at their base. Although one of them was their target, their appearance in this way was clearly not a good thing.
Especially after seeing that Yi Jun's handcuffs had been broken, Abel's face turned ugly, and he pressed the button without any hesitation.
Then—"Bang!" After all, it was a bomb that could instantly fake the death of Ling Ze, an A-level, and the unsuspecting Abel and his subordinates nearby met a miserable end.
While Yi Jun was surprised at how Lian Han did it, he didn't slow down either, carrying Ling Ze away like a ghost.
Lian Han said to Li Zi, "Don't kill him, but don't hold back. Breaking arms or legs is fine."
"Okay, Xiao Han." Knowing Lian Han's strength, Li Zi, after confirming that the only 2S was seriously injured, went all out. Her Xiao Han wasn't a parasitic plant; that was clearly a man-eating flower, okay?
There's absolutely no need to worry.
This was a no-signal area in the wilderness, and also the place where Abel and his group were forced to temporarily camp. They only dared to stay at the valley entrance and didn't dare to explore further. But if they didn't run into the valley now, they might die here—they could still tell the strength of those two women.
The group of people didn't care about anything else and rushed into the valley.
But Yi Jun had already returned and blocked their way, looking at them with a leisurely air. "You think you can get away after messing with the wrong person? How naive."
"Where's Ling Ze?" Lian Han frowned when he saw him return.
"They've been handed over to the outside army. We can't let any of these people escape."
Lian Han raised an eyebrow. "I understand."
After all, she had accepted a generous gift from Shen Liang, and these people were after her; she had no intention of letting them go in the first place. In fact, if it weren't for the fact that Die's identity was not easy to expose, she would have kept everyone there from the start.
Seeing that the two of them were taking on each other almost instantly, even Yi Jun, who was used to such situations, couldn't help but feel a twitch in his eyelids. This was too ruthless. He himself was already struggling to hold off these few.
Suddenly noticing Abel dragging his heavily injured body trying to slip away from Yi Jun, Lian Han stopped him without hesitation, saying, "Since you're here on the Imperial Capital Star, don't be in such a hurry to leave. We should at least give our guest a proper welcome!"
Abel's face darkened, but he quickly let out a cold laugh, "You brat, if I can't leave, neither can you!"
"Then you can keep one as a trial..."
To Lian Han's astonishment, a black vortex appeared beneath Abel's feet. Sensing the spatial fluctuations, Lian Han's only thought was "Holy crap!"
The most unlucky one isn't Ling Ze, it's her, okay?
