Fwoosh–
With a sound, the elemental special abilities in the hands of the three of them were released at the same time. When they collided, intense sparks were sent out.
In the middle of the sparks, a withered branch was instantly turned into fine powder and scattered in the air. When the wind blew, it drifted away.
Mo Chu furrowed his brows abruptly. They were actually attracted by a withered branch!
“Damn it!” Qin Yue spat. Before he could finish his sentence, he suddenly felt a huge pulling force behind him. It was pulling him back with all its strength. At this moment, he could not react in time!
Qin Yue’s expression changed! Time seemed to slow down at this moment!
Just when he thought that he was doomed this time, a few sharp water blades beside him passed through his back in time, making soft whooshing sounds!
The huge pulling force behind him instantly disappeared, and Qin Yue’s movements stopped. He half-crouched on the ground and took a deep breath. There was still a hint of fear on his face!
“How is it?” Mo Chu turned her head to look at him, her gaze still vigilantly staring at his surroundings.
“It’s alright.” Qin Yue fiercely swallowed his saliva and stood up. The gaze he looked at Mo Chu with was filled with sincere gratitude. “Thank you!”
If it was not for this girl’s quick reaction just now and the timely release of the water blades, he would have been captured by now. If he had really been eliminated because of this, he would have lost all of his face!
Qin Yue seemed to be able to see his old ancestor’s face full of disdain. Although he would not say anything, there was no expression on his exquisite face. His appearance would only make people’s hearts tremble…
He shook his head. After throwing the other thoughts out of his mind, Qin Yue focused his gaze on the surroundings.
“This person is very powerful,” Mo Yang said faintly, but the wariness in his eyes was getting more and more intense.
First, he used a withered branch to attract their attention, and then he took advantage of their unpreparedness to quickly launch an attack. He was very familiar with diversionary tactics, and his timing was also very precise! This person was definitely a tough nut to crack!
“That’s right.” Qin Yue nodded in agreement. Not only did this person have a unique vision, but he was also very fast. In just a breath’s time, he quietly approached them, making it impossible for them to guard against him.
“Let’s retreat first.” Mo Yang cautiously scanned the surroundings and said in a deep voice, “When we return to the shed, this person will have no other choice.”
The shed that they built could be considered a semi-enclosed area. Compared to such an open area, it was naturally much safer.
“Not bad! There are really three good seedlings!” The baby-faced soldier was currently hiding in the shadows of the tree branches, he used the light rays to perfectly conceal his own figure. Seeing the three people’s calm and collected behavior, his eyes lit up slightly. He softly muttered, “I can’t even bear to make a move.”
“Let’s go!” Mo Yang shouted in a low voice. The three people quickly ran forward in tacit understanding.
They still maintained their iron triangle posture from before. Regardless of whether it was offense or defense, it was very advantageous. Unfortunately, before it was the turn of the baby-faced soldier who was hiding in the shadows to make a move, a figure suddenly charged over. It broke through the solid iron triangle formation!
“I… I want to go with you guys!” The person who charged over was Qiao Hongmei. Fresh blood and filth stained her face and body. Her gray face was no longer as charming and pretty as before. Only her raised eyebrows showed a hint of seduction.
What did this person say just now? Mo Chu blinked. For a moment, she thought she was hearing things.
Qiao Hongmei bit her lip and did not say anything. She just stuck close to Mo Chu.
The sudden disappearance earlier had already caused a large amount of panic. Everyone had already fled in all directions, and she had also become alone.
After the initial panic had subsided, Qiao Hongmei quickly reacted. If she wanted to stay and not be kicked out, it was simply unrealistic for her to be alone. The most important thing was to find a sufficiently strong combat power, and Mo Chu and her group were undoubtedly the best choice.
Qiao Hongmei was secretly determined. It was not easy for her to be selected for this training. She must not be eliminated! As she thought, her hands could not help but grab Mo Chu’s sleeves forcefully, leaving a few obvious fingerprints on her clean coat.
“What did you say? You want to follow us?” Qin Yue stood at the side and sneered softly, “Are you brain damaged?”
If it was in the past, Qiao Hongmei would have already gone up against him. However, the situation was not in her control now. She could only lower her head and not make a sound. However, her fists were clenched tightly! Just you wait…
“Let go!” Seeing that Qiao Hongmei had no reaction, Mo Chu could not help but frown. A cold sense of repulsion gushed out.
Hearing this, not only did Qiao Hongmei not let go, but she even tried her best to hold onto Mo Chu’s clothes.
Touching her own face, Mo Chu could not help but raise his eyebrows slightly, and her heart was filled with doubts. Could it be that she looked like a saint? Otherwise, why would Qiao Hongmei think that she would forget about the past and bring her along?
“Aiyo! How thick-skinned!” Seeing Qiao Hongmei sticking close to Mo Chu, Qin Yue could not help but show a trace of disdain in his eyes. “Weren’t you going to steal the Spirit Food just now? Now you’re still trying to curry favor with Mo Chu, tSK tsk! Why didn’t I see that you were like this in the past?”
“Shut up!” Qiao Jongmei endured it a little longer. The anger in her heart was about to burst out. She raised her head and glared fiercely at Qin Yue.
What? Qin Yue could not help but chuckle. She had only pretended for a short while and she could no longer continue pretending?
Mo Chu did not have the time to tangle with Qiao Hongmei. The ‘devil’s pursuit’ behind them was like a malignant tumor that was constantly expanding. They could not afford to be careless.
Since she could not make sense of it, Mo Chu immediately made her move. She stretched out his fair and tender hand and forcefully removed Qiao Hongmei’s claws from her body. “I’m sorry, we’re not close with each other. It’s better if we don’t leave together.”
She was still afraid that Qiao Hongmei would silently take out a dagger and stab her in the back. That would be the death of her!
“You…” Qiao Hongmei bit her lip hard. When she raised her head, her face was filled with fear and worry. “Don’t! Just take me with you, okay?”
After all, she was a beauty. Even though her face was full of filth, her delicate and pitiful posture was still revealed from her bones. If it had been anyone else, they might have run up to her to show mercy. What a pity, at this moment, she just had to meet Qin Yue and the others. Hehe, I’m sorry, we’re blind!
Therefore, Qiao Hongmei’s performance had gone to waste. They even found it a waste of time to watch it!
“Let’s go, don’t waste time.” Mo Yang glanced at Qiao Hongmei behind him with disdain and said to the two of them in a low voice.
“Yeah!” Qin Yue’s expression also changed.
Seeing the three of them talking to themselves and completely looking down on her, how could the proud and arrogant Qiao Hongmei endure this? She simply hardened her heart and ran a few steps, hugging Mo Chu tightly with her arms! Did you guys want to leave without me? Hmph! I won’t let you guys get what you want!
Qiao Hongmei’s actions shocked Mo Chu and the others! Damn, when did Qiao Hongmei become such a shameless person? Where was her usual reserved and prideful self? Was it all eaten by magical beasts?
“Let go!” Mo Chu’s face was filled with anger as she shouted sternly.
Qiao Hongmei turned her head as if she had not heard anything. On the contrary, her arms that were hugging Mo Chu became even tighter!
Phew–
Mo Chu took a deep breath! She had to admit that the old saying was true. One had to treat the enemy as mercilessly and cruelly as the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves!
Mo Chu gave Mo Yang a look. Mo Yang immediately understood and walked forward. He stretched out his long arm and pulled Qiao Hongmei’s hand with all his strength, wanting to pull her off Mo Chu’s body.
“What are you doing?” Qiao Hongmei’s strength could not compare to Mo Yang’s. Not long after, the arm that was tightly hugging Mo Chu gradually relaxed. Her expression changed, “You’re bullying a woman! Do you believe that I’ll sue you in the Federation court?”
Once he was accused of ‘bullying a Federation woman’, his chances of finding a partner in the future would be close to zero. After all, most women would not be willing to find a partner with a bad record!
If it was someone else, Qiao Hongmei’s words might have been useful. But why would Mo Yang care about that? The strength in his hands was not weak at all. It almost tore off Qiao Hongmei’s arms. The pain made her gasp for breath.
Hearing Qiao Hongmei’s words, Mo Chu’s eyes could not help but darken. “Ha, my brother can’t touch you? Are you forgetting about me?!” As she said that, she stretched out her leg and kicked Qiao Hongmei’s stomach. Although Mo Chu looked small and delicate, the strength in her body was not to be underestimated. With just one kick, Qiao Hongmei was kicked to the side.
“Alright, let’s go!” It was not easy to get rid of this piece of sticky candy, so Mo Chu did not want to get involved with her again. She nodded at the two of them and ran back quickly, leaving Qiao Hongmei lying on the ground alone, she groaned in pain.
“Tsk tsk!” The baby-faced soldier could not help but let out a soft sigh. There was a look of longing on his face, and his tone was slightly regretful. “Thisshow is even more exciting than the TV series I watched before!”
He raised his gaze slightly and saw that Mo Chu and the others had already run far away. On the other hand, Qiao Hongmei was still lying on the ground. Hmm… was he going to catch her or not? The soldier with the baby face could not help but look conflicted. Then, his figure suddenly moved like a gust of wind. He stretched out his hand slightly and easily caught Qiao Hongmei.
“Ah–” An ear-piercing scream came from Qiao Hongmei’s mouth!
The soldier with the baby face frowned. This sharp female voice was like nails scratching on metal, making his teeth ache! Qiao Hongmei, who was in his hands, was still restless. Like an earthworm, she kept wriggling and shouting, “Let me go, let me go!”
“How troublesome…” The baby-faced soldier’s face turned cold. Before Qiao Hongmei could react, he let go.
Bang —
Qiao Hongmei, who had fallen to the ground, could not help but be stunned. What was going on? Was whe… was she released? Until now, she still felt a little incredulous!
“Uhh, so dirty!” The baby-faced soldier lowered his head in disgust. Seeing that his originally smooth clothes were stained with a lot of filth because of Qiao Hongmei, he could not help but feel annoyed. If he had known earlier, he should have thrown that woman down ruthlessly just now!
Looking at the time, the baby-faced soldier could not help but frown. He muttered, “I haven’t had enough fun yet! How did time pass so quickly?”
As soon as he finished speaking, the baby-faced soldier’s figure disappeared into the distance again.
On the other side, Mo Chu and the others ran back to the shed. They still stared at their surroundings with lingering fear. No one dared to close their eyes.
“This won’t do.” Seeing their situation, Mo Yang shook his head. “If we don’t rest, how are we going to hunt the demonic beasts tomorrow? How about this, the two of us will work together to keep watch tonight. We can take care of each other.”
“Sure.” Mo Chu nodded in agreement. Qin Yue also agreed.
In the following time, everything seemed to calm down all of a sudden.
Without the waves of screams, the entire Magical Region was extremely quiet. However, because of this, the two people on night watch did not dare to relax. Their nerves were tensed up, afraid that something would suddenly appear!
Finally, the sky started to turn white. Qin Yue could not help but let out a light breath. “This time, it’s finally a little easier.”
Without the cover of the night, this person’s whereabouts would be more easily exposed, and their safety had also increased by a lot.
“Okay.” Mo Chu smiled and agreed. She threw away the withered branch in her hand and stood up to stretch her body for a while.
“Are you tired?” Looking at the obvious bruise in Mo Chu’s eyes, Qin Yue could not help but frown and ask softly. This girl probably only slept for three to four hours that night. She did not look as energetic as before.
“Yes… I’m fine.” Before she could finish her sentence, Mo Chu yawned loudly. There were some tears in her eyes. She could not hide his drowsiness at all.
“Alright, it’s almost dawn now.” Qin Yue pulled Mo Chu in a different direction and pushed her in the direction of the shed. “You should go in and sleep for a while more.”
“No need, I’ll… go with you.” In a short sentence, Mo Chu yawned three times in a row. When she met Qin Yue’s slightly smiling gaze, she could not help but chuckle and stopped being shy. “Alright, then I’ll go and sleep for a while more.”
“Mm.” Qin Yue nodded with a smile.
Mo Chu was really exhausted. Her nerves, which had been tense for almost the entire night, urgently needed rest. She had just laid down on the bed when she fell into a deep sleep.
After an unknown period of time, suddenly, an exclamation sounded.
Mo Chu suddenly jumped up from the bed. Her mind was still a little dazed. When she exchanged a glance with Mo Yang, who had also woken up beside her, she instantly realized that it was over! Qin Yue was still outside!
The two of them immediately sprinted out with the strength of a 100-meter sprint!
Unfortunately, they were still one step too late. They only saw Qin Yue’s figure being dragged away. They wanted to chase after him, but they could not catch up at all. They could only watch as his figure became increasingly blurry.
Mo Chu stomped her feet fiercely! His heart was filled with guilt and anxiety. At this moment, she even cursed, “F*ck! Damn it!”
“Don’t be anxious.” Mo Yang’s gaze suddenly turned and landed on a piece of paper with a rock on it. He bent down and picked it up.
“This is…” Mo Chu frowned and came over.
“Don’t worry, your friend hasn’t been eliminated for the time being. However, whether he can stay or not will depend on whether you can find this thing in the Magical Region. Three days later, I will come looking for you and exchange him for someone else.” There was a sapphire-like round bead drawn under the paper, it was shining brightly. In the end, there was even a mischievous sentence, “You have to know that no one else has this kind of treatment. It’s only because I find you guys pleasing to the eye that I am especially kind to you. So, do your best, you young people!”
Looking at the message that was filled with a personal aura, Mo Chu’s head was filled with black lines. Big Brother, if you really find us pleasing to the eye, wouldn’t it be better to just let us go?
Although she was ridiculing them in his heart, Mo Chu still let out a sigh of relief. At least Qin Yue was still safe for the time being. This was the best.
“Big Brother, do you recognize this thing?” Mo Chu pointed at the round bead below, his eyes filled with doubt.
Mo yang nodded, his eyes filled with solemnity. “Actually, I’ve never seen this thing with my own eyes. I’ve only heard about it from others.”
“Hmm?” Mo Chu raised her eyebrows slightly. There was no need to look, this thing was definitely a treasure!
As expected, Mo Yang’s next words verified this point. “Do you still remember the Lizard Tree that we encountered when we entered the heart of the Deep Sea Forest?”
Was it that damned thing that had the upper body of a magical beast lizard and the lower body of a tree trunk? Mo Chu nodded her head vigorously. Her impression of it was very deep. After all, just its appearance alone was very unique.
“According to the classification of the special magic plant, that magical plant can only be considered a tier 5 magical plant.” Mo Yang paused for a moment. “And this kind of blue light bead exists in the special tier 8 magical plant.”
Previously, the Lizard Tree was so powerful, and it could only be considered as a tier 5 magical plant. Then, what would a tier 8… tier 8 magical plant look like? Mo Chu swallowed her saliva, and her eyes revealed a hint of shock.
However, that was not all.
Mo Yang added, “Moreover, not every tier 8 special magical plant will have this thing. It’s said that the probability of this treasure dropping is 1%!”
In other words, if the two of them wanted to find this thing in three days’ time, it was even more difficult than finding a needle in a haystack!
After listening to Mo Yang’s story about the origin of the blue light bead, the two of them could not help but fall silent for a moment.
“It’s nothing!” Mo Chu tiptoed and patted her Big Brother’s shoulder with all her strength. Her tone was relaxed, “Isn’t it just a blue light bead? What’s so great about it? Maybe we’ll find it right away! I’m the universally acknowledged Lucky Star!”
Seeing Little Chu’s expression, Mo Yang could not help but chuckle. His eyes were resolute. “That’s right. How do we know it won’t work if we don’t give it a try?”
They were bound to save Qin Yue!
“However, there’s a responsibility.” Looking at the resolute expressions of the two men on the light screen, Guan Sheng nodded in approval. As a soldier who had tasted blood, they could see the deepest part of a person’s heart the most, and the performance of Mo Chu and the others was obviously very satisfactory.
“Tsk tsk.” The baby-faced soldier strode in, his nose twitching vigorously. “Do you think I’m dirty or not? Do I still have any smell?”
It was that dirty girl’s fault for making his clothes smell weird. He had washed them several times, but he still felt that something was wrong.
“Come on!” The serious-faced soldier rolled his eyes at him. “How can you care about being dirty and bloody when you’re out on a mission?”
“How can it be the same?” The germaphobe, baby-faced soldier glared back at him and said with conviction, “At that time, the mission was still the mission. Normally, I have to maintain my clean and tidy image!”
“Enough, don’t talk to me about this nonsense.” The serious-faced soldier’s expression changed and his tone became slightly cold. “Why did you leave such a dangerous mission for them on your own accord? Is this blue light bead that easy to obtain?”
“I… I’m just cherishing my talent!” When this topic was brought up, the baby-faced soldier could not help but show some guilt on his face.
Actually, he had done this on a whim back then. However, even so, he could not tell the truth. Otherwise, he would suffer a severe beating!
Moreover, at that time, he really wanted to say that if Mo Chu could cook him a meal, no, five meals of barbecued meat. He could also return Qin Yue to the two of them. However, when he thought about it carefully, it seemed that he was not too reserved…
“Umm… Look!” The baby-faced soldier’s gaze shifted slightly as he threw out a series of words, “The quality and ability of these three people are obviously much higher than the other trainees. Other people are putting their lives on the line, but these few people are just playing around. If we were to train them together, wouldn’t that be misleading their children? Moreover, this mission is only to train them. If something really goes wrong, would I be able to sit back and do nothing? I can’t bear to destroy such good seedlings!”
Hearing this, the serious-faced soldier’s expression became much better. He only reprimanded him lightly, “Alright, forget it this time. If you dare to act on your own next time, you will have triple training assignments!”
“Yes! I promise to listen to the arrangements!” The baby-faced soldier withdrew his feet and straightened his body. He held a standard soldier’s salute with respect, but his expression was mischievous. This mischievous look made the other soldiers laugh!
