Chapter 147: Where did this wild boy come from?

~5 min read 808 words

Gan Jiang's long blade fell with the sound of wind. Lin Chen and Xia Nuan closed their eyes, waiting for the excruciating pain to arrive.

But the expected attack did not come. Instead, they heard a crisp "clang," followed by Gan Jiang's angry shout.

The two opened their eyes to see a man in a black windbreaker standing in front of them, holding a silver short blade in his hand, Gan Jiang's long blade lying on the ground.

"Where did this wild boy come from,

daring to meddle in my business?

" Gan Jiang stared at the man in the windbreaker with ferocious eyes. The man in the windbreaker did not speak, turning to squat beside Xia Nuan,

raising his hand to release a golden light toward her bleeding wrist. The golden light wrapped around Xia Nuan's wrist,

and the wound healed at a speed visible to the naked eye. A moment later, the bleeding stopped, not even leaving a scar.

"You guys run quickly,

I'll block here.

" The man in the windbreaker stood up, holding the short blade horizontally in front of him, and said to Lin Chen and Xia Nuan. Lin Chen wanted to say more, but Xia Nuan pulled his arm, signaling him to run quickly. The two had just run out the door when they heard Gan Jiang's roar and the sound of metal clashing behind them. They dared not look back, running all the way toward the base.

They hadn't run far when a scream suddenly came from behind. Lin Chen and Xia Nuan stopped in their tracks,

looking back to see Gan Jiang picking up the long blade from the ground and slashing fiercely at the back of the man in the windbreaker.

The man in the windbreaker was instantly split in two, fresh blood and internal organs spilling all over the ground. The two were stunned, their legs going weak, and Xia Nuan even couldn't help but cover her mouth, almost vomiting.

"Quick... run quickly!

" Lin Chen reacted, pulling Xia Nuan to continue running until they rushed into the base gate,

stopping only when they saw the guards. Both of them were panting heavily, their faces pale. Returning to the Firmament Villa,

Lin Chen immediately shouted to the system: "System, who was that man in the windbreaker just now? Why did he suddenly appear?"

【Detected that the man in the windbreaker was a supporter temporarily called by the system based on the host's current crisis, with the purpose of assisting the host in escaping danger.】 The system replied. Hearing this, Lin Chen was instantly furious: "Why didn't you tell me in advance when you called the supporter? He was split in two by Gan Jiang! Do you know that?"

【The supporter is a temporary data generation body with limited existence time and will automatically dissipate after the task is completed.】 The system explained. Lin Chen was even angrier: "Dissipate? He was clearly split in two! What kind of support do you call this? It's basically sending him to his death! Why didn't you find someone stronger? Why didn't you discuss it with me in advance?"

Lin Chen questioned several times in a row, but the system never answered again. No matter how he shouted,

there was only silence. Xia Nuan sat beside him, looking at Lin Chen's angry appearance, and gently patted his shoulder: "Don't be angry anymore, at least we are fine.

The system might have its own considerations." Lin Chen took a deep breath, but still couldn't suppress his anger.

He looked at the empty system interface, feeling both angry and helpless, and could only smash a fist into the sofa to vent the emotions in his heart.

The base guards heard about Gan Jiang and all strengthened their vigilance, some even taking the initiative to come to the villa to ask about the situation.

Lin Chen said a few simple words and let them go to strengthen the defense to prevent Gan Jiang from breaking in again.

Xia Nuan poured a glass of water for Lin Chen and handed it to him: "Drink some water to calm down. Now is not the time to be angry. Gan Jiang is still outside, we have to think of a way to deal with him and cannot let him hurt others again."

Lin Chen took the water glass and drank a sip, the anger in his heart calming down slightly.

He looked at Xia Nuan and nodded: "You are right. The most important thing now is to deal with Gan Jiang and not let him succeed again. As for the supporter just now, the system won't answer, I will find out sooner or later, but now I must first do a good job of defense to ensure the safety of the people in the base." ===== CHAPTER 148 =====
