Chapter 245

The group leaned on the handrail, looked down, and witnessed the following scene.

In the path where the player landed, a spatial rift happened to appear, suspended in mid-air.

In order to grab the player, it was as if nothing could stop the Ethereal, even if it meant falling into the spatial rift.

And what the other end of the Hollow rift connected to, that was unknown.

If it was extremely lucky, the other end would happen to be on the ground, allowing it to land elegantly and step out with its toes calmly.

If it was unlucky...

Congratulations, what awaited it was ten thousand meters in the air; if things went smoothly, it could enjoy a one-stop reincarnation service in less than ten seconds.

As the player fell into the spatial rift, the Ethereal followed closely behind, the leisurely music stopped abruptly, and the spatial rift disappeared without a trace.

"Phew—it's a good thing there was a spatial rift below." Ling sighed. "I can't believe this guy would be attracted by music..."

"It seems someone wanted to use the Ethereal to deal with us."

Lycaon looked around and said.

"Did Rein do it? No... that's not right..."

Eous paced back and forth, thinking seriously.

Ye Qingfeng stood not far away, following their train of thought, and fell into deep thought.

Without Ling and Lycaon's reminder, Ye Qingfeng wouldn't have thought in this direction at all; his mind was entirely on that Ethereal.

It was like a mad scientist who had encountered a fascinating subject.

"Bang——!"

With a loud noise, nearly ten shells trailed fire, drawing an arc in the air; the target was just a Bangboo?

Ye Qingfeng couldn't understand this; how was this any different from cutting the support first when fighting in a group...

But Eous's situation was different; it was connected to Ling's senses, and if the Bangboo was injured, she would also feel pain.

Did these three rebels know this... or was it just an accident?

Thinking didn't hinder his actions; he stepped forward, grabbed Eous's scarf, activated bullet time, and dodged among the shells one by one.

He easily avoided the shells that poured out.

Watching Ailian waited for Ye Qingfeng and Eous to escape safely, and her gaze locked onto the three rebels not far away.

They held launchers and, noticing that the first wave of attacks missed, immediately fired a second wave of shells.

Watching Ailian sprinted straight toward them, and a shell came straight at her on the path, which she casually split with the blade in her hand.

The shells that followed were easily avoided by her, and the shells bombarded the ground, emitting thick smoke that obscured the surrounding vision.

The distance between the two sides rapidly closed; she held the hilt of her blade behind her back, waited to get close, and slashed out with full force without mercy.

Seeing this scene, those rebels looked panicked, ignored the launchers in their hands, turned around in unison, and fled quickly along the stairs behind them.

Are these even humans? They're simply superhumans!

These are shells! How can you just split them open like that?!

Are they supposed to wait to be cut in half without running?

But? Can they run away?

Watching Ailian followed them in, Lycaon secretly thought it was bad, pushed aside the smoke, and shouted at the empty stairwell: "Watching Ailian, remember to leave one alive!"

When Lycaon chased in, the scene before him made him sigh.

Watching Ailian was leaning against the wall, having sucked on a lollipop at some point, waiting impatiently, her weapon resting casually by her side.

The three rebels who had fled lay at her feet, looking like they weren't in very good condition...

Lycaon slowed his pace, walked down the stairs unhurriedly, and checked the condition of the rebels.

Ye Qingfeng followed closely behind, carrying Eous, and let out a long sigh of relief when he saw Watching Ailian was safe and sound.

"Q-Qingfeng! Hand!"

Eous struggled violently, its short limbs waving non-stop, trying to break free from Ye Qingfeng's control, which clearly didn't have much effect.

Even so, it attracted Ye Qingfeng's attention.

He looked down to check.

Eous's short legs kicked backward continuously, its arms waved in arcs, seemingly trying to pry open his palm, but each time it was a short distance away.

"I can't breathe, Qingfeng, loosen your hand!"

Ling said weakly.

"Sorry, sorry, I didn't notice."

Ye Qingfeng gently put Eous down; the former showed an embarrassed smile, while the latter rested its hands on the ground and made a panting motion.

After all... the one panting was Ling from the video store; Bangboos didn't have a respiratory system.

"Is Ling okay?"

Wise asked with concern.

"I'm fine, no problem."

Ling panted more than ten times in a row, her breathing gradually stabilized, and she explained:

"I just had some trouble breathing, plus when we were going downstairs just now, Qingfeng was too fast, causing the force of the choke to be uneven."

Noticing Wise's worried gaze, she added another sentence.

"It wasn't the feeling of being choked by a palm, there was no feeling of oxygen deprivation or suffocation,

it was like being choked by a leather strap, the force wasn't too tight, but being pulled from time to time caused me to have trouble breathing, plus Eous being carried around by Qingfeng made me dizzy too."

"..."

Wise was silent.

Isn't this even more wrong? It's best if it's not what he's thinking...

"Besides us, there are actually other people in the building, who exactly are they?"

Ling quickly recovered, controlled Eous to climb up, looked at the three rebels around, and asked while pinching her chin.

"It seems they won't wake up for a while, let's take them out of the Hollow first."

Lycaon suggested.

Getting unanimous agreement from everyone, Lycaon then clamped one under each arm, Ye Qingfeng dragged one, and under Eous's guidance, they left the Hollow together.

Leaving the three rebels to be handled entirely by Victoria Housekeeping, they said their goodbyes.

Ye Qingfeng took the original Eous and walked on the road back to the video store, and as expected, they started making a scene again...

There were no accidents on the road, and they returned to the video store smoothly, learning that the people they encountered in the Hollow weren't rebels, but militants.

Ye Qingfeng was confused for a moment, then reacted immediately.

He really didn't know much about this aspect; when he did Hollow commissions before, he had encountered many attacks from soldiers, and learned from Ling's explanation.

They weren't regular defense forces, but belonged to defecting soldiers.

Therefore, the soldiers Ye Qingfeng encountered in the Hollow were directly linked to rebels; after all, he hadn't seen regular defense forces in the Hollow.

In the final analysis, it had nothing to do with him, he just wanted to rest for a while.

Before he could lie down, he was dragged out by Ling and Wise again, saying they planned to visit Watching Ailian, as they had received a lot of care from her in the Hollow.

There was still a bag of candy left, and they planned to send it to her as a souvenir and return gift.

Ye Qingfeng didn't know what to complain about.

Watching Ailian did like candy, but shouldn't they figure out the order?

She did like candy, for her it was a supply, but she didn't need supplies now, so she must be sleeping in her bed.

Running over to disturb Watching Ailian's sleep now was no different from pulling a tiger's tail; he would die a miserable death!

Besides, Ling and Wise weren't familiar with Watching Ailian either, were they going to run over and stare at each other?
