Chapter 265
At the same time, on the other side of the crisis-ridden Hollow, Ye Qingfeng rushed forward, moving quickly toward Rina's location according to the map in his mind.
The Ethereals he encountered were inexplicably wrapped in a mass of purple matter, floating in mid-air struggling powerlessly, their bodies constantly being squeezed and deformed.
Finally, with a "Bang—", they exploded, turning into dots of stars and dissipating in the air.
A scene that would be unbelievable in the eyes of ordinary people was actually happening before their eyes; all this was Ye Qingfeng's handiwork.
To prevent Lycaon from catching up too easily, he also deliberately left a few Ethereals to slow down his and Ling's progress.
Ye Qingfeng looked at the corner ahead, and could vaguely hear the bustling conversation; the group of rebels who kidnapped Rina was right here.
He sneaked closer and poked his head out from the corner to check the situation inside.
There were about ten or so rebels, surrounding Rina; the rebel captain in the lead looked anxious, looking toward the corner directly opposite Ye Qingfeng from time to time.
Good, good, caught up!
If Rina were already dead, wouldn't it be a wasted trip? It would be normal, but it's hard to say if it were later; after all, the airship losing control was only ten minutes ago, and it's been so long without killing the donkey after the millstone.
Something's wrong~
It may be because there is still utilization value; Rina's hacking ability was taken a fancy to by the employer behind this group of rebels, so she is still alive and well.
Haven't started acting yet? Are they waiting for news?
Ye Qingfeng rubbed his chin, pondering the next course of action.
Sometimes there is no need to overcomplicate things; rescuing Rina at the fastest speed will inevitably expose the ability to manipulate ether, so wiping out this group of rebels is necessary.
Sss—too brutal, and there is a risk of exposure.
The main goal is to save Rina and let her lift the control of the airship.
Use bullet time.
Just as Ye Qingfeng was about to act, movement came from the opposite corner, and a rebel ran out in a panic, panting:
"Cap... Captain—that Lupine and a Bangboo are about to catch up!"
"Brothers, prepare to retreat—wait, what did you say? Only one person?"
The rebel captain greeted his brothers to retreat, but found something wrong and asked seriously.
"Yes, and a Bangboo."
"Hmph!" The rebel captain sneered and waved his hand, "One person dares to chase; we have more than ten people, the advantage is with me!"
The rebel who sent the letter whispered, "They also have a Bangboo..."
"Bangboo? Can the existence of such cats and dogs affect the battle? Come on, what if there are a hundred Bangboo? Let them pass our firepower coverage first!"
The rebel captain was even more disdainful; how panicked he was when he heard someone chasing just now, he was that arrogant now.
"Oh oh oh—!"
"Oh!"
"Captain is mighty!!"
The surrounding rebels heard this series of victory declarations and cheered one after another; some even fired a burst at the ceiling.
Rina, whose mouth was sealed with tape, was completely desperate; the good news is that someone sacrificed their life to come to the rescue, the bad news is that only one person came, and if nothing goes wrong, he will die in front of her.
She had never hoped so much in her life to be caught by the Public Security Bureau, and at the same time hoped that the person who reported the news had misread it and mistaken a Fox-girl for a Lupine.
In Rina's cognition, if anyone could rescue her alone, it would be Lord Hoshimi Miyabi, the section chief of the Sixth Section!
Tell a joke: in the eyes of ordinary people, an Ethereal called a monster encounters Hoshimi Miyabi's three-stage charged slash; may I ask, who is more like a monster?
Ye Qingfeng took advantage of their cheering to seize the opportunity to activate bullet time; his thinking was incomparably clear, and he could even feel the flow of time around him slowing down.
No matter how many times I use it, it feels so magical.
He took a step and rushed straight toward Rina; the rebels seemed to have been cast with a stasis spell, turning a blind eye to Ye Qingfeng passing by them.
He picked up Rina effortlessly, took her out of danger in a princess carry, and after confirming that the distance was opened, hurriedly closed bullet time.
Ye Qingfeng's breathing was slightly rapid, as if his physical strength had been suddenly drained by a portion.
In just over a minute, how could the physical exertion be so great?
Nearly one-tenth of his physical strength disappeared; he narrowed his eyes and soon discovered the problem.
Number of people and strength problem!
Although their combat power was at most level one, they couldn't withstand the large number of people; it's not strange that affecting more than ten people for more than a minute consumed one-tenth of his physical strength.
Fortunately, they only had level one combat power, otherwise, the physical exertion would probably have risen geometrically.
Unlike Ye Qingfeng's calm thinking, Rina and the rebels reacted differently to what had just happened.
A look of confusion appeared on Rina's panicked little face; for Ye Qingfeng, the task completed in more than a minute was just an instant in the eyes of others.
She only felt her body fall, lying in a warm harbor, and the wind passed by her ears at high speed like thousands of sharp blades, making a sharp tearing sound.
Conversely, in the eyes of the rebels, Ye Qingfeng was like the Flash, flashing by, so fast that afterimages appeared, and for a while, they subconsciously thought they were dazzled, until the place where Rina was originally was empty.
"Captain, that guy is gone!"
A rebel who discovered Rina's disappearance first shouted.
"Nani!! Find her for me!"
A group of people was in a mess, and under the rebel captain's order, they looked left and right to find Rina's figure.
Ye Qingfeng didn't deliberately hide, and soon one of the rebels discovered his trail, pointed his finger over and shouted: "Brothers, he's over there!"
All the rebels cast their gazes at Ye Qingfeng, raised their guns at the person in front of them, but no one pulled the trigger.
The reason is also very simple.
More than a dozen gun barrels pointed at Ye Qingfeng's brow like a snake spitting out its breath; he was still calm, and the smile on his face was even better.
Either he is a fool who doesn't know how to write the word "death," or he is a master of the world who thinks bullets don't pose a threat to him.
Obviously, this group of rebels is more inclined to the latter.
The rebel captain gritted his teeth, knowing in his heart that continuing to consume would not be good for everyone, but the order to fire was stuck in his throat; he didn't want to bet on the possibility of the former, and even more so couldn't take the lives of his brothers as a joke.
"Everyone, I'll give you two choices." Ye Qingfeng's tone was indifferent, "One! Leave immediately, two! Pull the trigger."
The rebel captain looked embarrassed, not knowing what to do for a while; Ye Qingfeng's face suddenly changed, full of impatience, and his tone was quite casual.
"Tsk! Forget it, I guess you won't give up no matter which one you choose, fire! After all, I'm not someone who kills innocent people indiscriminately,
I'll allow you to fire a magazine of bullets, so you can explain it, right?
Besides, you wouldn't be reconciled if you just left like this, right!"
