Yun Yuzhi had warned Lin Yu that today was not a good day to go out, but she had no choice; Xiao Qiang was coming back.
Just halfway down the road, a mountain blocked Lin Yu's path. Looking up, it wasn't a mountain at all, but him—Werewolf Wu Yi!
"You..."
"It’s me..." His voice was cold, devoid of any emotion. Wu Yi radiated an icy aura, as if he could strike at any moment.
"..." Lin Yu's mind raced. It seemed he had indeed betrayed the World Rescue Team. But she couldn't let that stop her from going to meet Xiao Qiang, could she?
Just as she thought of Xiao Qiang, Wu Yi revealed his sharp, hooked fingernails, his gaze turning cold as he said, "Do you need this?"
Wu Yi's finger dangled a Chain that caught Lin Yu's attention.
Moments ago, she had felt excitement and joy; now it was as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over her from head to toe. She dared not imagine further... A chill ran through her body as she nervously questioned, "How did his Chain end up in your hands?"
The Chain had never left Xiao Qiang's side; once it did—an ominous feeling began to grow in her mind. Anger surged within her as she furrowed her brow and stepped closer, mentally preparing for a confrontation. She pressed on, "What have you done to him?"
"He’s dead..."
"You killed him?"
"I didn't mean to kill him; who knew he was in Professor R's car?" Wu Yi seemed to be speaking truthfully, his face contorting in pain as he desperately tried to justify his mistakes.
"You... tell me what really happened."
"A lot of things you don't know. Professor R is colluding with others to commit heinous acts, so I vowed to eliminate him."
"Then what?"
Wu Yi raised his clawed hand and said fiercely, "I will use these weapons he bestowed upon me to strike back at him..."
The Professor R's RSQ car sped down the road when suddenly it jolted, accompanied by a loud noise as if it had collided with something. The others in the car, aside from the restrained Xiao Qiang and Feng, were puzzled about what had caused the disturbance.
Xiao Qiang and Feng were both in a daze, each under varying degrees of control by the Professor R. A syringe filled with a drug had entered their capillaries without them feeling anything—after a few minutes, they began to feel drowsy and weak all over.
The difference between the Professor R and Matt was that the former was overly cunning and treacherous, while the latter was too confident, easily believing in false facades.
A sharp, piercing sound came from the roof of the car, an unbearable noise reminiscent of scraping against a porcelain bowl. It was more like a sharp blade scraping against the vehicle—
Before Wen Kai and Li Hang could get out to check, the car suddenly lifted into the air and trembled—having previously feared that Xiao Qiang might escape, the Professor R had ordered all the car doors locked. In their panic, they couldn't quickly open the doors.
Beside them was a steep drop-off leading to a rushing river below. Wu Yi lifted the car and shouted at the river, "I'll send you to meet Marx..."
The car rolled off the edge and with a splash fell into the turbulent waters, sinking instantly—
"So, how did you get the Chain?"
"I went to check and found the Chain hanging on a Dandelion. That's when I realized Xiao Qiang was in the car."
"The door opened?"
"It must have been during the roll down the slope that it shook loose, causing his Chain to fall off from around his neck."
"I will kill you..." Lin Yu shouted in anger, her fingers splayed wide, radiating a fierce energy as she suddenly leaped into the air. The objects around her floated with her telekinetic force.
Wu Yi lowered his head, his eyes glinting with malice as he secretly gathered strength in his hands—
Lin Yu's gaze darkened, the sharp energy bearing down on him. With a whoosh—Wu Yi's clothes tore apart, and the skin on his body trembled as he stumbled back a few steps, his fingernails extending several centimeters in an instant.
He kicked off the ground, lowering his brow, and sprinted forward—ten fingers like blades aimed at Lin Yu's protective barrier.
He was once a friend, a comrade in arms—no, I can't do this. Lin Yu softened her fierce energy, unable to bring herself to strike Wu Yi down—
In a moment of hesitation... the opponent's weapon had already pierced through her telekinetic shield... Thud! The razor-sharp nails dug deep into her body.
Blood flowed steadily from the wounds along her nails, and Wu Yi was taken aback... he quickly retreated, instinctively glancing at his blood-soaked fingernails, feeling regretful as he thought: It’s impossible; I can’t hurt her...
Seeing her increasingly pale face made his heart ache—so painful—"Yu, I love you... Please hold on..." He rushed forward and caught Lin Yu as she fell from mid-air, crying out in anguish.
Blood stained Lin Yu's body as she struggled to open her eyes. With a deep look, she glanced at Wu Yi and weakly murmured with her pale lavender lips, "We are good brothers; we can't turn against each other... Go find him... He can't be without Chain."
"Yu, don't die. I'll take you to find Matt; he has a way. There must be a way..."
"Matt will kill you... Hurry and go!"
"Matt?" Wu Yi indeed saw him approaching.
Matt held 'Mission Call 9-N8' in his hands, filled with hostility as he aimed it at Wu Yi, ready to pull the trigger—
Wu Yi was stunned. What was he doing? Did he intend to annihilate Lin Yu in one fell swoop? The 'Mission Call 9-N8' was incredibly powerful, capable of blasting both him and Lin Yu into oblivion.
"Get away from her—" Matt did not shoot immediately but issued an uncompromising command.
Wu Yi hesitated. Although he didn't know which of the two, Matt o Professor R R, was more evil, in this situation, he had no choice but to compromise; he couldn't afford a direct confrontation.
A hard fight would lead to mutual destruction and would also implicate Lin Yu. She had already suffered a fatal blow and could not endure any more harm. He longed to kiss her seemingly translucent forehead but ultimately chose to gently lay her down on the ground out of respect.
"Yu, wait for me... I’m going to find Xiao Qiang... Matt won’t ignore this; he will help you..."
Just as he moved a meter away from Lin Yu, that little man Matt pulled the trigger—whoosh—a spinning bullet flew accurately toward Wu Yi.
"Alpaca! I'm running—"
With a thunderous explosion, a small mushroom cloud rose into the air. Wu Yi was fast enough to outrun the bullet! Matt gritted his teeth in frustration and hurried over to embrace the barely conscious Lin Yu.
Matt frowned as he looked down at Lin Yu, whose face was as pale as paper in his arms. He felt a surge of anxiety; time was critical. If he delayed the best chance for rescue, she would truly be lost.
Minutes later, Wu Yi crawled out from the cave, his eyes moist as he gazed at the blood droplets trickling on the ground. Guilt washed over him... silently wishing for her to pull through; otherwise, life would be worse than death for him!
