But just as the Fourth-Level Bat flew in, a red fire serpent descended from the sky and swallowed the Fourth-Level Mutated Bat in one bite, leaving no trace behind. The Third-Level Bats lost control and immediately charged wildly at Liu You'er and Xuan Mo on the ground.
"Fool!"
Xuan Mo frowned, cursing inwardly. He glanced up and noticed a device resembling a helicopter, but without any propellers. At such a close distance, it made no sound and emitted no scent; no wonder he hadn't noticed it earlier.
However, he didn't have time to dwell on that now. Saving Liu You'er meant that they were not enemies at the moment.
He hurriedly dashed toward Liu You'er. The Mutated Bats were out of control and intent on killing them, while Liu You'er remained unconscious. If he didn't reach her in time, she would be doomed.
At the same time, a soft ladder descended, and a person dressed in military green camouflage slid down it, jumping off from ten meters above the ground.
When Xuan Mo saw the person's face, a flash of surprise crossed his mind, but he remained expressionless. He used his control skills to whip up a tornado, protecting both the newcomer and Liu You'er in the center. He said joyfully, "Thanks to you, otherwise my girlfriend and I would have been finished!"
"Girlfriend?"
The man's gentle voice sounded familiar to Liu You'er, but...
"Wang Luojie? He's not dead?!"
Liu You'er’s mind froze for a second as murderous intent surged within her; she had seen his face before!
Because she was so focused on Wang Luojie being alive, she overlooked Xuan Mo's words. Otherwise, she might have lost control and jumped up to kill Xuan Mo. However, she later realized that the outcome was almost the same.
Wang Luojie glanced at the people on the ground, their faces covered in blood and dirt, making it hard to see their features. But that head of silver hair...
He recalled the scene from that day at A City Base: dark clouds loomed overhead, corpses littered the ground, blood flowed freely, and countless Zombies feasted on the remains. Liu You'er stood atop the city wall, exuding an aura of killing intent, her expression one of delight as she watched the Horde slaughter humanity. Her white hair danced in the wind, an exceptionally striking sight.
"Hey, hey."
Xuan Mo glanced at Wang Luojie, who was lost in thought while staring at Liu You'er, and felt an urge to kick him into the swarm of bats.
Wang Luojie snapped back to reality upon hearing the voice, his brow furrowing. A fire serpent appeared once more, darting into the wind. Without changing his expression, Wang Luojie cut open his palm, causing the Third-Level Mutated Bats to frenzy and dive into the flames one after another.
Just as Liu You'er was about to be overwhelmed by the stench of burning flesh, the last Mutated Bat was consumed by the fire serpent and turned to ash. Xuan Mo and Wang Luojie wiped the sweat from their brows and simultaneously looked at Liu You'er.
One gaze was scrutinizing, while the other was... envious.
"10798."
"10799!"
"10800!!!"
Liu You'er slowly regained consciousness. Xuan Mo noticed her eyes moving and quickly produced a Green Pill. Stealing a glance at Wang Luojie, he immediately stuffed the pill into Liu You'er's mouth and covered her lips.
Liu You'er found herself with something inexplicable in her mouth; she initially wanted to spit it out, but to her surprise, the pill dissolved instantly. Soon after, her throat felt as if it were on fire, and her face throbbed painfully as if her flesh were being scraped away. In response, she bit down on the hand that was groping her face.
Xuan Mo let out a hiss, drawing Wang Luojie's attention. He quickly flashed a charming yet bashful smile and said, "My girlfriend loves to bite when she wakes up; it's nothing serious, haha~ hahaha~"
Wang Luojie shot him a speechless glance before turning away.
Seeing Wang Luojie preparing to climb onto the helicopter, Xuan Mo hurriedly asked, "Are you from B City Base?"
Wang Luojie nodded, signaling him to continue.
"We're going too, let us join you~"
Wang Luojie looked at Xuan Mo, thought about his strength, and nodded before climbing up.
Xuan Mo loudly said "Thank you," ignoring Liu You'er's hungry gaze, and whispered in her ear, "What I gave you was a disguise potion, and you're biting me in return?!"
Seeing Wang Luojie looking down, he quickly and gently set Liu You'er down and deliberately said loudly, "Ruru, you go up first, I'll follow behind~"
Liu You'er felt a chill run down her spine. Who is Ruru? She turned and climbed towards the ladder. Seeing Xuan Mo below her, with his dark hair tied up high and not moving, she waited until he climbed into the helicopter before pretending to pull him up, but actually kicked him hard on the head.
"Ah, murder!!!"
Wang Luojie immediately ran to the cabin door and found Xuan Mo looking shocked as he clutched the center of the soft ladder, looking confusedly at Liu You'er.
Seeing his gaze on her, Liu You'er calmly said, "I wanted to pull him up, but who knew he fell because he was injured and had no strength."
Only then did Wang Luojie take a closer look at Ruru. She had the same Cat Eyes as Liu You'er, but everything else was completely different. Liu You'er had a cold voice while she was soft-spoken; Liu You'er had sharp and exquisite features while she was sensually enchanting...
He withdrew his gaze and coldly said, "You go sit down; I'll take care of this."
"Oh."
Liu You'er noticed Wang Luojie's reaction and realized she hadn't given herself away, so she didn't mind anymore.
In the office,
The screen froze on the image of Liu You'er being held; her face was maximized. Even though it was covered in bloodstains, after technical processing, her original appearance was still revealed.
Chuze stared at the photo for a while, his gaze flickering. He tapped the center of the screen, and a box popped up with the words "Confirm deletion?" He hesitated for a moment before clicking "yes."
“Buzz~”
A mechanical voice sounded: “Flame and two unidentified individuals have arrived. Do you approve?”
“Hmm.”
“Approve entry.”
“Ding.”
The small button on the door turned green, and the door immediately vanished. Chuze sat there with a cold expression, sipping tea as if he were indifferent to everything.
Liu You'er looked at the man in front of her, who had a slender build and wore a loose white lab coat over a white shirt, exuding an aura of restraint. She felt... somewhat familiar?
His features were not particularly outstanding, but together they created an indescribable elegance. His complexion was slightly pale, resembling a vampire who had not seen sunlight for years. His eyes were like a deep pool, unfathomable. A pair of black-framed glasses perched on his high nose, giving him an air of distance.
Chuze allowed her to scrutinize him without saying a word.
Wang Luojie stepped forward and said, “This is the person we rescued earlier. I thought he had decent skills, so I brought him back. You can decide whether to keep him or not. Also, here’s this back to you; I didn’t use it.”
Chuze took the ball and casually placed it on the table, addressing Liu You'er: “Welcome to L Base, Radiant Lightning.”
His tone was steady, without any fluctuation, yet it startled all three people present.
Liu You'er was surprised that he might know she was a Zombie.
Could Xuan Mo know his identity at Jing Chuze?
As for Wang Luojie, he was simply surprised that this Ruru could be the city lord rumored to have a cold heart yet inexplicably treats ordinary people kindly.
A hint of apprehension flashed through Liu You'er’s mind, but her face broke into a smile that was captivating. Unfortunately, she was unaware of it, and Wang Luojie, seeing her like this, directly judged her to be a woman who relied on men to gain power.
It seems that rumors are ultimately just rumors.
If Liu You'er knew Wang Luojie's thoughts, she would probably just dismiss him with two words: "Fool."
"I've heard that the Diviner at B City Base is quite impressive, and it turns out to be true. But how do you know who I am? Have you seen me before?"
Chuze calmly listened to Liu You'er’s probing and said to Wang Luojie, "I will notify the higher-ups to arrange accommodation for them. You can go rest." Then, he silently opened his computer and began working.
"Are you issuing an eviction notice?"
Liu You'er looked at Chuze's attitude and thought to herself: It would be best to have some interaction in the future! With that, she turned and left. Xuan Mo silently glanced at Chuze before following Liu You'er out.
As they exited, the disappearing door reappeared. Chuze glanced up at the direction of the door and continued working…
