Chapter 370
he stopped,
preparing to gather some information.
【Are you looking to take a star-skiff?】
Seeing Seeing Jiaoqiu walk over,
a taxi-skiff pilot stepped forward and asked enthusiastically.
Meanwhile,
not far from the pilot, a Foxian's gaze
was locked onto Seeing Jiaoqiu.
This made Seeing Jiaoqiu's heart sink; he understood this was a Borisin monitoring his movements.
【Yes, but not just me...】
【How many guests can you seat?】
After deliberating for a moment,
Seeing Jiaoqiu answered the pilot.
【Yo, my little star-skiff can't seat that many people...】
【But I have a larger star-skiff; if the guest needs it, I can be at the port in less than a quarter of an hour. Where are you planning to go?】
【No matter where you want to go, you'd better hurry.】
【The Wardance ceremony is about to begin.】
【The Sky-Faring Commission is regulating the airspace, giving priority to star-skiffs heading to the Exalting Sanctum.】
The pilot smiled and urged him.
【I want to go outside the Jade Gate; is that convenient?】
Seeing Jiaoqiu glanced at the person monitoring him,
and asked the pilot again.
【Ah? Are you joking? How could this tiny star-skiff fly outside the Jade Gate?】
Stelle: "Damn, how come Hoolay's people are everywhere?"
Stelle: "They've completely infiltrated all sorts of places!"
Mualani: "I have no doubt that if Mr. Seeing Jiaoqiu asked this pilot for help, that person would be dead."
Seeing Jiaoqiu: "Of course I wouldn't do that."
Seeing Jiaoqiu: "This is clearly a trap set by Hoolay."
Seeing Jiaoqiu: "He wants to use this to beat me down."
Seeing Jiaoqiu: "He wants to tell me that if I don't behave, innocent people will die miserably."
Seeing Jiaoqiu: "Heh, beastly behavior."
March 7th: "Truly despicable!!"
March 7th: "It makes me grit my teeth!"
Furina: "When will General General Feixiao discover Hoolay's tracks?"
Furina: "I already want to see Hoolay hunted down."
Paimon: "That probably has to wait until... little Hearing Yanqing is full?"
Hearing Yanqing: "Uh..."
Hearing Yanqing: "I really didn't want to eat that meal..."
The video continues.
Seeing Jiaoqiu didn't continue talking to the pilot,
but continued walking toward the port.
On the way, he encountered people from the Balance Commission,
and wanted to ask for help,
but also discovered someone monitoring him nearby,
so he had to dismiss the idea.
Afterward, he encountered patrolling Cloud Knights,
but there was still someone monitoring.
Thus, he finally had no choice but to arrive at the port honestly.
【Don't ask, not leaving, find someone else.】
Just as he arrived at the port,
before Seeing Jiaoqiu could speak,
the ferryman here directly refused with an impatient face.
【What if the Warhead says he wants to leave?】
Seeing Jiaoqiu had already seen it;
this person was actually a disguised Borisin.
【.....】
【You are not one of us, but you have a familiar scent on you.】
Hearing Seeing Jiaoqiu mention the Warhead,
this ferryman began to look at Seeing Jiaoqiu suspiciously.
【The Warhead told me to come and check the situation.】
【The Warhead asks if we can leave yet?】
Seeing Jiaoqiu asked.
【Not yet; my little boat here can't escape the Luofu Xianzhou at all. Only the ships at the Scalegorge Waterscape have a chance to break through the Jade Gate.】
【Mudu said there would be an insider to pick us up, but I haven't received any word at all.】
The ferryman shook his head,
looking anxious.
Miss Yunli: "It would be a miracle if there was word!"
Miss Yunli: "Those insiders at the Scalegorge Waterscape have long since become research specimens!"
March 7th: "It's a good thing the three of us accidentally uncovered their conspiracy; otherwise, now that the ships are in place, Hoolay would have already escaped by boat, right?"
Miss Qingque: "Without ships, they can only be honestly trapped here."
Miss Qingque: "The problem is, how can we capture Hoolay without civilian casualties?"
Stelle: "Unless we can lure Hoolay to a place where there are no people."
Stelle: "But that's obviously very unrealistic."
Stelle: "Hoolay won't be foolish enough to fall for it."
Furina: "If only the former Luofu Sword Champion Jingliu appeared again."
Furina: "In that case, I think Hoolay would be attracted."
Dan Heng: "But Jingliu is not on the Luofu now, and even if she were, given her state, letting her fight Hoolay might not be a good strategy."
Stelle: "Indeed..."
Stelle: "Don't let it happen that Hoolay isn't captured, and Jingliu goes mad, enters Mara-struck, and starts a massacre without recognizing anyone; that would be a joke."
The video continues.
【The port isn't blockaded... what on earth is going on?】
【It seems delaying is meaningless; it's time to face Hoolay.】
【Let me see what kind of game he wants to play...】
Seeing that the port was still unobstructed,
Seeing Jiaoqiu was completely baffled,
but now was not the time to consider this.
Seeing Jiaoqiu thought for a moment and decided to go back to find Hoolay first,
to see what on earth he was up to.
【You've returned, Seeing Jiaoqiu.】
A moment later, Seeing Jiaoqiu returned to the courtyard,
and Hoolay walked up.
【You've been monitoring me the whole time; if I asked anyone for help, your people would kill them...】
【I'm right, aren't I, Lei?】
Seeing Jiaoqiu looked at Hoolay,
and said with a cold laugh.
【You are correct.】
【So, did you wait for the Cloud Knights to blockade the port?】
Hoolay asked in return.
【...No.】
Seeing Jiaoqiu shook his head after a moment of silence.
【It seems they don't wish to make my escape public.】
【That's not surprising; fear is more lethal than claws and teeth...】
【Especially during a festive moment like the Wardance ceremony.】
【What's here right now isn't a group of prisoners hiding in the shadows, but a wolf that has walked into a flock of sheep.】
【My wolf cubs are hungry; they crave to feast on flesh and blood, using your fear as a side dish.】
【Seeing Jiaoqiu, your shell of feigned calm is fragile in my eyes, just as I can tear through your skin and flesh at any moment to reveal the pathetic white bones beneath; before me, you have nowhere to escape.】
Boothill: "What the hell, why does this thing talk so much crap?"
Boothill: "He's just a stray dog, what is he barking about here?"
Boothill: "Hey, it's a good thing I'm not in front of him, otherwise I'd definitely let him know how tough I am!"
Stelle: "Buddy, you need a draft even for bragging, right?"
Stelle: "Although your body is quite hard, Hoolay's teeth are so good; I think biting through your steel plate would be more than enough."
Boothill: "Tsk, then I'd at least knock out one of his teeth!"
Boothill: "To suppress his arrogance!"
Hu Tao: "I have to say, listening to this Hoolay talk is truly infuriating."
Hu Tao: "Clearly he's fleeing in a sorry state, yet he puts on the appearance of a high-and-mighty hunter."
Silver Wolf: "It's completely inverted."
Silver Wolf: "Probably hasn't woken up from his sleep in prison yet."
Lumine: "He's just bullying the captured Mr. Seeing Jiaoqiu."
Lumine: "If Hoolay were really as brave as he says, wouldn't he have broken out long ago?"
Lumine: "Would he still be here, disguised as the Foxians he looks down upon, hiding cautiously?"
Seeing Jiaoqiu: "The so-called proud Borisin Warhead is now using his tongue to attack others."
Seeing Jiaoqiu: "This actually makes me breathe a sigh of relief."
Seeing Jiaoqiu: "It shows that even he himself thinks he has reached the end of his rope."
The video continues.
【You can certainly harbor luck, thinking you can use your quick wit to escape the current situation.】
【But remember, being in a bustling city, we have more than just you as a hostage.】
【Any unusual movement from you will cause innocent people to die because of you.】
