Chapter 160: Han Ronggui?
"I'm afraid that's not possible!" As a mere support system, it lacked such authority. The system drooped its head in dismay.
That was fine, but because of this incident, just to be safe, the two of them still arranged for people to wait at the city gates every day.
Four years had passed since the apocalypse began. Her body was fabricated by the system, so there was no need to worry about any connection to those people; she could safely proceed with her mission.
After all, while counter-jungling just now, he had been distracted and saw Gu Chacha crouching in the bushes near the red buff, waiting for something unknown.
Gu Chacha rolled her eyes. Jiang Xianyu was fine in every other way, but he had a habit of becoming lovesick at the drop of a hat, speaking in ways that made no sense.
"Grandpa Zhang once said that before you turn eighteen, you are not allowed to use any sorcery unless you see me. Do you know why?" Lu Qingyi asked again.
Han Shigui and Shandong each held a Type 97 sniper rifle, using the light from the explosions to pick off the Japanese soldiers from a distance.
A red and black fish swam by. Mu Xue moved with agility, lunging forward and catching it in one go.
"So focused, what are you thinking about?" A familiar and pleasant male voice came from beside her.
Now that everything had been integrated, anyone could see that the scale of this factory was extraordinary.
My face was burning, and the air I exhaled felt hot. I felt faint and on the verge of collapsing, struggling only to keep my mind clear enough to see the situation around me.
Eighteen’s brow furrowed deeper, his eyes dark and fierce as he looked at Shang Wu. His hands clenched into fists, his knuckles turning white, producing a cracking sound.
With a dull thud, his body slumped powerlessly to the ground. His eyes, as if finding release, slowly closed. The black ring that had been floating in mid-air dropped as well, finally coming to rest gently on his right finger.
In just half a day, Manla City fell into a panic. A massive exodus of people poured out, all claiming that the city had been cursed.
"High Official Lu, this is my responsibility. I was unaware of the situation. When I return, I will ask my superiors to punish me. Cao Zhanjun is also a brave man."
The Demon King had likely never imagined that the person collaborating with him would actually intend to devour him to bolster their own power. No matter what, he could not let Bai He benefit.
I calculated silently. At this rate, in less than a month, not only would my injuries be fully healed, but my cultivation could return to the realm of a Ghost Duke.
Seeing the celestial aura surrounding me, his expression was filled with excitement; it was clear he was genuinely happy for me.
Lin Jingyi occasionally stayed at Ding Qing's place when she didn't go home; after all, there were plenty of spare rooms there.
Gu Huimin finished speaking in one breath, grabbed her handbag from the sofa, and stumbled toward the entrance.
He worked hard to achieve results at the Rashomon gate, climbing step by step to the position of Hall Master. But Zhao Youting hadn't been idle either; he was also a Hall Master, and the most powerful one in the Zodiac Gate. At this level, even if both sides wanted to settle personal vendettas, it wasn't something they could do on a whim.
Su Ge thought, why go through all that trouble? A blood test? But Gu Shen took it seriously, helped her change her clothes, shoved her into the car, and went straight to the hospital.
It was in the afternoon of that same day. After lunch, He Chuan took Zhou Xiaoling to Xiwang Mountain.
Elder Ming and the others clearly showed a trace of regret on their faces. After all, this sword had been obtained by Zhou Bingshan. Regardless of the means he used to get it, it belonged to him for now, and that was indisputable.
The wood-attribute spiritual energy cultivated through the Five Elements Technique had healing and restorative effects. Zhou Bingshan didn't understand the principle behind it, but it certainly functioned that way.
He Chuan's body trembled. Looking at Wang Haisheng's demeanor, he had already guessed the truth. What did this situation imply? If this matter was confirmed, and they didn't take action, Zhangzhou City would likely fall into chaos once again.
The minister laughed in fury, pushing up his black-rimmed glasses that had slipped due to his agitated movements.
"Are you alright?" Old Liu, who had been laughing along with me at first, felt that something was wrong. He stopped laughing and looked at me with concern, asking solicitously.
"So you three are Relief, Headshot, and Dove? I am the Bureau Chief, Li An. If you have any demands, feel free to tell me. My superiors have already given instructions for me to look after you well." Li An looked at the three and said.
"Hey, aren't you supposed to be able to reach Challenger with a perfect win rate? Logically speaking, your strength shouldn't be too far from his, right?" Cheng Shiyu asked curiously.
They were all dressed in short black outfits, wearing masks, and carrying various weapons. Although the weapons were motley and disorganized, they coordinated with each other exceptionally well.
Ripples in the void undulated layer after layer, their frequency gradually increasing until they nearly touched. A dense, vast amount of spatial energy was emitted, and time itself seemed fixed, standing still at a certain node.
Sun Shilin shook his head. He didn't think that he and Shangguan Shi combined could convince the person coming tonight to throw away so much money.
Yu Xiao and Zhao Menghai were stunned. Previously, when they asked Yu Wei, she wouldn't say a word, just telling them to wait and promising a surprise.
Colin let out a painful grunt, and for a long time, he couldn't speak. The MP3 player also emitted a static hissing sound for quite a while.
At this moment, Zong Bailu suddenly felt something wrong. A cold wind blew faintly behind her. She turned her head abruptly, but it was truly too late; the ring snake had already lunged, its two long, slender fangs gleaming with a cold light.
Yet, if one observed closely, one could see that everything was not actually paused. The long sword was still thrusting forward, and the pressure of the mask was still forcing the stars to hide. It was just that the entire process had been delayed by an unknown magnitude, so slowly that it was almost imperceptible, yet it was still ongoing.
Fan Shuiqing wrinkled her nose. When Wang Tian walked in, he was emanating such a thick stench of alcohol that it nearly knocked someone over.
"Then there is no problem. Not only will I be able to heal your injuries and restore your cultivation, but I can also grant you the right to be a mother once again." Lei Yu said without hesitation, his tone resolute.
Therefore, when Liu Chong claimed he was sending ten thousand troops, if it were anyone else, it would mean tens of thousands. Because to ensure the combat effectiveness of ten thousand men, the logistical support personnel would definitely be several times that number.
"Everyone, please stop clapping; I'm getting shy." Cong Yi scratched his head and smiled somewhat embarrassedly.
Only just after handing the materials to the blacksmith, the system prompted that I had completed the task and obtained the quest item, which left me feeling a bit suspicious.
