Chapter 236: Investigation
Hearing this, Ye Qingfeng didn't hesitate, held Eous and ran all the way, with the Victoria group following behind him.
After observing all the way, the main force of Victoria Housekeeping was Ellen and Lycaon, both of whom had the strength to kill Ethereals of elite level and below in one hit.
As for Corin and Rina, although they were a bit worse, they could also easily handle the lowest-level Ethereals.
After safety was sufficiently guaranteed in the Hollow, the rest was the route problem. Belle and Wise, who happened to have a Fairy, perfectly solved this problem.
Ye Qingfeng ensured Eous's safety and followed Belle's instructions all the way forward.
I have to say, lying down and winning is really cool!!
Even so, many Ethereals along the way rushed toward him one after another. I really don't understand!
Five people in a group, as if they knew in advance that he was the target to be protected, all attacks were locked on him.
Fortunately, they were all blocked by the Victoria group. Ellen rarely cheered up, moved~~!
As Ye Qingfeng stepped out of the stairs, the iron door not far away was slowly closing.
It would close completely in about five seconds. He could catch up with his speed, but the key was what was the use of him rushing in alone?
He couldn't leave them outside.
He was weak and helpless alone, and there was a small Bangboo with no power to truss a chicken.
Lycaon didn't know Ye Qingfeng's thoughts. The machinery on his feet began to emit cold air, his soles stepped on the ground fiercely, and he ran toward the iron door with a fierce face.
"Eh! Wait——don't be in a hurry!" Ye Qingfeng shouted hurriedly.
Lycaon is worthy of being a wolf-person, his execution is really full.
Before Ye Qingfeng finished speaking, Lycaon braked his steps fiercely, just avoiding an attack from an Ethereal. It was clearly stunned for a moment, noticed his back, and decisively attacked him.
This wave of advantage is with me!
Lycaon's furry ears seemed to hear the wind behind him, shook slightly, and without looking back, he gave a back kick behind him.
The Ethereal was seriously injured and fell to the ground......
"Lord Qingfeng, why......"
Lycaon was just about to ask the reason, noticed the crowd falling behind, and the completely closed iron door.
"I understand."
Lycaon agreed with Ye Qingfeng's proposal and turned around to say:
"I suggest a temporary withdrawal. Please let the Rope Master rest for a while. Victoria Housekeeping will investigate the cause of the power outage and the way to pass through here."
"Understood." Belle said.
After simply saying goodbye to several people and Ye Qingfeng, she cut off the connection with Eous.
"Alright, while the Rope Master is resting, let's start the investigation." Lycaon ignored Ye Qingfeng on the side for the first time and directed the Victoria group to start acting.
"Corin will work hard!"
"I know."
"Tsk! So troublesome......" Ellen complained, then changed the subject, volunteering, "Since Qingfeng is a guest, I'll take him to rest!"
"I think you just want to take the opportunity to be lazy. Hurry up and investigate with Rina and the others. I will take care of Lord Qingfeng."
Lycaon punctured Ellen's true intention without mercy and said mercilessly.
"Fine, fine......"
Ellen muttered impatiently and left to investigate with Rina and Corin. After the three left completely, Lycaon put his gaze on Ye Qingfeng.
"Ellen has this kind of personality, please don't mind."
Ye Qingfeng noticed Lycaon's polite attitude and twitched his mouth.
When talking to Belle, it was, ah ah~ Rope Master, go rest, blah blah.
When it came to him, it became this polite appearance... and it was an overly polite attitude.
Clearly Lycaon wasn't like this before; it seemed that since knowing about his relationship with Ellen, his attitude toward him was like a drop tower, falling to the bottom instantly.
As far as he knew, Lycaon and Ellen shouldn't have anything; a shark-person, a wolf-person, could it be a wolf-shark?
"It's okay." Ye Qingfeng revealed a fake smile, "During the few days I lived in Ellen's house, I already understood her lazy and impatient personality very well, not to mention......"
"This is also one of Ellen's cute points. I hope she can trouble me more."
A tic-tac-toe sign rose on Lycaon's forehead, his toes exerted force unconsciously, the ground finally couldn't bear the pressure, and it shattered with a loud noise.
He couldn't remember when he was last angry, but if he were younger, he would have kicked him already.
"Lord Lycaon shouldn't let a guest stand here all the time, right?"
Ye Qingfeng looked at Lycaon breathing deeply constantly, feeling a bit surprised in his heart. He didn't expect that the words he said would have such great lethality to him.
However, he just intended to retaliate a few words simply; it wouldn't be fun to tear his face with the other party, so he immediately put away his smile and said kindly:
"Ahem! If you want to chat, how about after this commission is accepted? Standing here all the time is not a thing, find a place to rest for a while?"
Lycaon saw Ye Qingfeng put away his playful face, and the anger in his heart dissipated instantly.
In the end, it wasn't a big deal. If it were Ellen's choice, he would support it.
However, before this, he needed to understand it well. After all, Ellen was still young, maybe she was a love-brain in terms of emotions; it was reasonable to check for her.
"Lord Ye Qingfeng's words are reasonable, follow me."
Lycaon turned his body and made a gesture of please this way.
"You are too polite, let's go together."
"I understand, please this way."
The atmosphere that was tense a second ago was now exceptionally harmonious.
It's really strange......
Lycaon led the way in front, Ye Qingfeng followed behind carrying Eous, and quickly found a room to rest. After sitting down in turn.
After the two sat down and chatted for a few words, Lycaon claimed to go help with the investigation and got up to leave.
"Please."
Seeing Lycaon leave, Ye Qingfeng was happy to be idle, lay down and took out his phone, intending to browse the internet to pass this time.
Just after opening the page, the screen popped up with network unavailable.
Remembered! There is no signal inside the Hollow!
What to do? The phone can't be played, and in order to save power, he turned Eous off.
Isn't there nothing to do!
Can't sleep, can't say when the Ethereals will sneak attack......
Ye Qingfeng sighed helplessly. Fortunately, he was prepared for this situation and took out a few things that could pass the time from his spatial backpack.
Lying on the sofa and yawning, he passed this boring time.
After about an hour, footsteps approached gradually. Ye Qingfeng subconsciously raised his eyes, and a big shark pushed the door and walked in.
With a face full of exhaustion, she swayed as she walked toward him.
"Move over~ Let me rest for a while!"
