Chapter 266
"Brothers, go!"
The rebel captain's face changed from cloudy to sunny, and he gritted his teeth and made up his mind.
In the end, they were just doing things for money, and bringing Rina back was just an additional task, so it wouldn't be worth the loss to lose their lives for this.
Under the captain's order, the rebels turned and ran away without any hesitation.
They were rebels after all, but if they were replaced by grave robbers, the choice might be very different.
Ye Qingfeng saw the rebels leave completely, and only then did he have time to check Rina's situation; perhaps the atmosphere just now was too suffocating, she didn't dare to move, tears welled up in the corners of her eyes, and that pitiful appearance made him feel pity.
He bent down to put Rina down, then tore off the tape on her mouth, and soothed her softly: "Miss Rina, are you okay? I am Ye Qingfeng, a member of Cunning Hares; don't worry, I have no malice."
Rina had short pink hair and a well-proportioned figure, and her overall style had a girlish flavor.
Just after breaking free from Ye Qingfeng's embrace, her legs softened, she knelt on the ground, and her body couldn't stop trembling slightly; obviously, the encounter in the past few days made her have lingering fears,
"Ye Qingfeng? I've heard Nicole mention you..." Rina's expression changed rapidly, revealing horror, and she shouted urgently: "Quick!! Go to the roof of the building! There's no time, the Law Court's airship is about to—"
Before she finished speaking, a loud noise came from the ceiling, interrupting Rina, and also attracting Ye Qingfeng's attention; Lycaon, who was not far away, repelled the last Ethereal and hurriedly quickened his pace to rush over.
At this time, the rebels who had quietly run far away whispered.
"Report Captain, the time bomb has been detonated according to the original plan, and the structure of the Hollow has been detected to have changed; the road to the roof has disappeared!"
"Received!" The rebel captain walked at the forefront of the team and sneered: "Even if you take back the hostage, the ending of the airship could not have been changed long ago."
Eous and Lycaon finally arrived at the destination and saw Ye Qingfeng and Rina in the distance at a glance; the two approached quickly, their expressions slightly panicked.
"Qingfeng—where are those rebels?" Ling looked around the empty Block B, her gaze finally stopping on Rina, "Rina, are you okay?"
"I'm fine... now is not the time to talk about this, we must hurry to the roof of the building!" Rina urged again.
"I'm sorry, I brought bad news," Lycaon said, "The road to the roof was installed with bombs by the rebels; the loud noise just now was caused by the explosion, I'm afraid the fastest road to the roof can't be taken."
"Wha—t?"
Lycaon's words were like a sharp knife, stabbing into Rina's heart; her limbs were weak, two lines of tears slid down, her hands supported the ground, and her words were choked with sobs and apologies.
"No... no I..."
"Sorry... Miss Rina..." Lycaon was embarrassed and introduced Eous to Rina, "Actually, this is the famous legendary Rope Master Phaethon; with her, we can quickly find other roads to the roof."
Rina stiffened, raised her head stiffly, and glared at Lycaon dissatisfiedly.
Bastard—give back the tears I just shed!
Although she was threatened, causing the people on the airship to fall into danger, she thought they had no hope.
Lycaon turned his head away in embarrassment, feeling the strong gaze, and then lowered his head in shame.
Although it was an accident, causing a lady to cry, it was really not gentlemanly!
Eous was in standby mode; obviously, Ling was looking for other paths to the roof, as long as Ye Qingfeng didn't steal a laugh, not afraid of trouble.
It's rare to see Lycaon eat a loss; finding the right opportunity to open the camera, he peeked at him and pressed the shutter.
"Click—"
The sound of taking pictures flashed with white light; Lycaon hurriedly raised his hand to cover his face, waited for the light to disappear, and stared at Ye Qingfeng fiercely.
For the observation report—endure, endure, endure again!!
"What happened~ I don't know anything..."
Ye Qingfeng turned his head away, pretending nothing happened; the hypocritical appearance made Lycaon grit his teeth.
So angry!
"Found the road, near the lobby on the ground floor of Balai Building Block B, it will take about 7 minutes!" Ling said seriously, informing everyone of the information queried by Fairy, "However, that road has to pass through a high-erosion area, and you may encounter high-risk Ethereal individuals!"
"If you encounter an Ethereal in a while, I'll stop them, you guys go!" Ye Qingfeng put away his smile and turned to look at Rina, "Can you solve the airship matter?"
"If you only need to lift the control of the airship, send me safely to the roof, and I can dismantle the interference equipment there immediately!"
Rina nodded in response; her personal safety was guaranteed, and that cold style was fully revealed.
"However, I heard from those rebels before that in order to ensure the plan is foolproof, the passengers on the airship were paralyzed; is there anyone who can fly the airship out of the Hollow now?"
"This is a bit troublesome..." Ling was distressed, "Although Billy is still awake, he doesn't know how to fly an airship."
Ye Qingfeng heard Rina's question and Ling's answer, and automatically filled in the scene of Billy flying the airship, pressing buttons everywhere in a panic; the possibility of the airship crashing before reaching the Hollow was higher.
"As long as Miss Rina can contact the control of the airship, leave the rest to me; according to the information we obtained before, the airship will pass over the Balai Building, and I can take over the pilot."
Lycaon gave the three a reassurance.
"Since that's the case, let's go!"
Ye Qingfeng said.
The group followed the path given by Fairy and moved forward all the way; the Ethereals they encountered were cleared by Ye Qingfeng and Lycaon together, and then they passed through a space rift, and the destination was close at hand.
"Here! The exit is over there!"
Eous pointed to the door not far away, then looked around for any trace of Ethereals, and excitedly prepared to go first.
"Wait, something's wrong!"
Ye Qingfeng reached out to stop Eous; just at this time, the light on the ceiling flickered, verifying his guess.
The levels of Ethereals encountered along the way were not high; according to the plot in the movie, the boss should appear at this time.
Anbi silently gave a like.
Ye Qingfeng, who was most sensitive to ether energy, felt the ether concentration around him rise sharply, and his gaze went straight ahead.
So dark... can't see clearly...
But the Ethereal is definitely here!
A beautiful and moving piece of music rang out; Lycaon and the others were ready, their eyes darting around, obviously not having discovered the location of the Ethereal.
"This music is..." Ling grabbed Ye Qingfeng's pant leg tremblingly.
The spotlight brightened and dimmed, from near to far; a spotlight closest to the exit shone down, piercing the darkness, and a figure appeared in the center of the aperture.
