The two of them turned their heads almost simultaneously toward the amusement park. Because they were standing on a tall building, they could clearly see the dark green color bursting outwards from a central point.
Ning Jue's expression changed. The color was much darker than he had expected. They had actually concentrated their energy in one point.
Those lunatics!
Noticing that he wanted to get down, "Lian Han" raised an eyebrow and pulled him back, "Uncle, be good and stay put."
Ning Jue frowned, ignoring her coaxing tone, her expression grave, "Do you know what that is? That..."
"I don't know why the toxins broke out so quickly, and I don't want to know, but everything will be alright here."
The girl's confident demeanor actually gave Ning Jue a sliver of trust. He looked down, his hand resting on the ring containing Yu Ting's mecha. If the explosion reached the vicinity, he would act immediately.
Lian Han's certainty was not without reason; the dark green circle had not yet fully erupted when it surged toward one place at an eerie speed.
Ning Jue noticed that it was the place they had just been.
What is that?
Lian Han replied, "Guess."
Ning Jue smiled slightly, "You'll find out soon enough."
Lian Han looked outside again, not wanting to pay attention to him, since General Ning's image in her heart had been completely ruined anyway.
The light didn't last long before disappearing. At the same time, Ning Jue received a message from his adjutant—the source of the poison had vanished!
Ning Jue looked at the girl beside him. An ancient gray mask obscured her appearance, but he still felt she resembled Lian Han a lot—their temperament, their eyes, everything was similar, and they even had the same cards.
Lian Han's eyes suddenly lit up, and he waved to Ning Jue, "Uncle, I'm leaving, this time I'm really not going anywhere!"
Then she jumped off the roof and it rained. Well, a rooftop of over a hundred stories is really nothing for someone with 2S constitution. That's how she just jumped up.
She wanted to leave? Ning Jue hurriedly tried to catch up, but the special prompt from the AI sounded at that moment. He was stunned, and when he looked again, she had already disappeared. Even with his 3S mental power fully activated, he couldn't find a trace of her.
Ning Jue frowned, and could only order his adjutant to check the surveillance footage while simultaneously making contact, "Xiao Han?"
"Uncle, mission accomplished, I'm off. I can still make it back in time for graduation. Just wanted to let you know. Also, if anything happens to the starship again, I'm going to pilot my own spaceship and travel the stars!"
"Are you still in the North?"
"You're not..."
"Hey boss, who are you talking to? The starship is about to do a space jump, so communications should be down by now. You can turn on video after the space jump is over, no problem." Ruan Zhenyue's cheerful voice came through.
"Okay. I'll talk to you later, take care."
Ning Jue frowned, but then suddenly noticed the box on the ground; it was a card box.
Upon opening the card, he saw dozens of intermediate-level antidote cards, and the fluctuations in mental energy emanating from them... Ning Jue felt he needed to go online and have a serious talk with the girl...
[We will return to the time and space the host left before. Please sit and prepare.] Holding the card, Lian Han closed his eyes and waited for the system to teleport him.
As she felt her body being slowly peeled away, Lian Han silently recalled the words of advice she had given herself at this time over the past few days: protect Ye Ying, be careful of the Han family, be careful—who else was she supposed to be careful of? She couldn't remember. How could this be?
Protect Ye Ying, beware of Han... Han what? Han Ningshu or who else?
In my imagination, protecting the night... night what?
In a daze, Lian Han felt a sudden darkness before her eyes, and then she saw the ancient-clad man who called himself Cangming. The effect of the Butterfly Shadow Card she had been using disappeared, and instead, the No. 1 card in her hand turned into a dark green blob and pounced on the man.
"Watch out!" Lian Han panicked. That person was even more terrifying than 3S!
[Survival mission complete. Talent attribute #1 - Purification - unlocked.]
Then she saw a burst of white light emanate from the dark green scorpion. Cangming, who had been quite interested, melted away as if he were snow encountering fire. His expression changed. "Interesting. Little beauty, I will come to find you again."
After saying that, the man gave Lian Han a deep look and disappeared.
The entire space began to collapse and break apart. Lian Han recalled Number 1, resigned himself to taking out the defense card from the newbie gift pack. He had to use up his absolute defense card again.
I feel sorry for her.
However, the next second she fell into a man's arms, and the man said softly, "Using high-level cards against me, are you out of your mind, girl?"
Oh, 3S should have used a special-grade card, otherwise it could have broken free. Lian Han thought to himself, and then withdrew the defense card.
A vast spiritual force enveloped the two of them. Lian Han quietly called out as the space outside tore and reformed, and began to recall what had happened before. The system took her through time and space to help upgrade Card No. 1. During this time, she met Ning Jue and another version of herself. What did she say to her?
Seeing her furrowed brows, Old Man Xing wanted to speak up to remind her, but he found that whenever he tried to say something, his voice would be automatically muted. Was this to prevent precognition from causing a temporal distortion?
With this thought in mind, Old Man Xing calmed down. Even at his peak, he couldn't defy the rules, let alone now. He could just remember those things; it would be better to remind the girl at the right time to keep her alert.
"Are you calm now?" Under the protection of their mental energy, their voices were not muted.
The girl looked down at the back of her hand and said, "Very calm."
She remembered that she had made a deal with the system, exchanging the ability to feel pain for the removal of the bloodworm mark.
"Are you sure?" Ning Jue looked down at her. The girl's resolute demeanor earlier didn't seem like that of someone who was usually calm at all. Suddenly, he noticed a green leaf on her shoulder. "What's this?"
