Chapter 18 I am the brother
The people walking beside her today were Lei Xingyi and Lei Xingxu. When they heard her question, they just rolled their eyes and glanced at the black bracelet on her wrist.
Bai Han and Bai Yan, who were walking behind, saw clearly that the brothers Lei Xingyi and Lei Xingxu did not intend to say much, but they knew in their hearts that this question from their prince was not meant for them, so they also remained silent.
After half a minute of no response, Zang Ye lowered his voice and briefly explained, "Most mutant plants are very good at hiding their crystal core energy. In fact, many mutant animals only emit strong crystal core energy when hunting, which can be captured by the bracelet."
"So, if the detector on your hand goes off, you need to be alert, but if it doesn't go off, you still can't let your guard down."
"Oh." An Nuo nodded seriously, like a student who had learned new knowledge.
After walking in the woods for a whole day, the few people did not encounter any danger. As it was getting dark, they could only find a relatively open place to camp and rest.
An Nuo slept alone on the raised stone in the middle, which was specially flattened by Zang Ye with a weapon. The five sentinels were scattered around her, each leaning against the vines to rest.
The faint chirping of insects rang in the ears of several sentries. This most natural white noise made several sentries unconsciously begin to relax their minds. As the night deepened, the faint fragrance of flowers also drifted to the noses of several people.
Comforted by the most natural and quiet sounds of insects and the fragrance of flowers, Lei Xingyi, who had not yet fully recovered from the battle yesterday and was assigned to keep watch today, yawned unconsciously and felt a little sleepy.
"A-choo!"
A soft sneeze sounded in the middle of the quiet forest symphony, like a thunderbolt breaking through the darkness, waking up all five sentinels.
Bai Han, Bai Yan, Zang Ye and Lei Xingxu opened their eyes at the same time. They first looked at the expressionless Lei Xingyi, and then the five of them looked at An Nuo who sat up.
"What's wrong with you? Are you cold? I'll go light the fire now."
Zang Ye, who had originally decided not to start a fire because he thought it was unsafe in the woods, stood up at this moment and waited for An Nuo to nod before he went to collect firewood and start the fire.
It is the sentinels’ job to be alert to danger, and our guides just need to be comfortable and healthy!
"It's not cold, it's the fragrance of flowers!" An Nuo shook his head. "There was clearly no floral scent before I went to bed, but I didn't expect it to suddenly become so strong!"
"Maybe I'm a little allergic to this scent? My nose is itchy and I couldn't help but sneeze."
As he spoke, Annuo sneezed twice in succession.
"Flower scent?"
Zang Ye frowned and began to concentrate on smelling the scent in the air.
“Something’s wrong!”
"Something's happening!"
After just a few breaths, Lei Xingyi and Zang Ye spoke at the same time.
When they heard Lei Xingyi, who was on guard, say that something was happening, the rest of the people immediately turned their eyes to him.
"What did you find out?" Zang Ye, who just instinctively sensed that something was wrong, looked at Lei Xingyi with a serious face, waiting for him to tell him about the discovery he didn't know about.
"I didn't find anything." Lei Xingyi shook his head. "I just suddenly remembered that I might have fallen asleep just now!"
"I just feel like I'm conscious, but also a little blackout."
Hearing Lei Xingyi say that he had just "pretended to sleep", several sentries immediately realized the seriousness of the matter.
According to the physique of a Level 7 Sentinel, even if he does not sleep for three days and three nights, he can still stay awake and carry out his mission. It is impossible for him to fall asleep or even become confused.
"What's wrong? Is there any danger?" An Nuo's dark eyes reflected the moonlight. He swept over the few people and finally fixed his gaze on Zang Ye. "Should we leave here now?"
"Tsk!" Lei Xingyi, who had already made a mistake, couldn't help but become irritated when he saw An Nuo's stupid look, not knowing what had happened. Although he didn't say anything, his originally beautiful black eyes turned into vertical pupils.
Zang Ye and Lei Xingxu frowned and looked at Lei Xingyi, sensing very keenly that something was wrong with him.
Zang Ye, Lei Xingxu, Bai Han and Bai Yan looked at each other, and after confirming that they were all on alert, they slowly walked to An Nuo and took her into his arms.
"Lei Xingyi, how much is your pollution value?" Zang Ye said in a calm voice, attracting Lei Xingyi's attention.
Lei Xingyi, whose attention was successfully drawn by Zang Ye's question, was stunned for a moment before answering his question, "84, what's wrong?"
Zang Ye frowned, his face full of suspicion, but An Nuo directly refuted him: "You are already showing very obvious signs of being irritated and daydreaming. Your pollution value cannot be only 84."
"It was already 84 before I got here. We've only been in the contaminated area for less than ten days, so it can't possibly have gotten any higher." Lei Xingyi licked his fangs, his vertical pupils staring coldly into An Nuo's. "Why? Are you attracted to my face? Or are you attracted to the fact that we look like twins?"
"I'm telling you, I don't need you to comfort me mentally. Hide those disgusting thoughts in your heart!"
"otherwise……"
"If your beautiful face were to be stained black and purple by my venom, with black blood dripping all over it and swelling up into a ball, that would be a scene..."
As he spoke, a fanatical light appeared in Lei Xingyi's cold vertical pupils, and the speed at which his long crimson tongue licked his fangs became faster.
"This picture seems... quite beautiful? I think it should be much more beautiful than you are now. Do you want to try it?"
"If you dare to..."
"Lei Xingyi!"
Before Lei Xingyi could finish his words, Lei Xingxu and Zang Ye called out his name at the same time.
Lei Xingxu's tone was full of worry for him. Although there was also worry in Zang Ye's tone, there was more anger.
Although you are in poor condition, you deserve a beating if you dare to threaten my guide in person like this!
Zang Ye clenched his fists, gently raised his right leg, and prepared to step forward and teach the sharp-tongued Lei Xingyi a lesson.
"It's okay." An Nuo patted Zang Ye's fists, slightly turned sideways to block Zang Ye in front of him, stopping him from teaching Lei Xingyi a lesson.
"Did you bring the detector?" An Nuo looked at Lei Xingxu. After seeing him nod, he tilted his head slightly towards Lei Xingyi and said, "Go test your brother. If my estimate is correct, his pollution level may be over 88 now."
"I'm the older brother!"
Lei Xingxu looked at An Nuo seriously, corrected the mistake in her words, then turned around and took out a palm-sized square detector from his backpack. He walked to Lei Xingyi, raised the detector, and prepared to test him.
