They quickly flew out of the bay and sailed southeast for about half an hour, spotting wreckage of ships on the sea, and one intact vessel.
Most of the debris was stained with fresh blood, and burnt corpses were visible. They thought the battle was over until the helicopter was almost hit as it approached.
The pilot managed to evade it just in time, followed by another burst of gunfire. He had to control the helicopter to fly higher, out of the range of attack, before they finally stopped.
"They attack when we get close. We can't land. What do we do?"
The pilot was on the verge of a breakdown.
The people below attacking him indicated that Fu Hongyu was not in the advantageous position; their enemies were.
Just as they were at a loss, gunshots rang out again from below. This time, it was an exchange between two sides. It was clear that Fu Hongyu knew they had arrived and was helping them.
"Can we get closer now?"
"Yes."
The pilot maneuvered the helicopter closer again, but the problem that had been troubling him reappeared. If she went down unprotected, she would be riddled with bullets before even reaching the ground, still making it difficult.
"Open it. Let me down."
"They'll attack, and you have no protection. It's too dangerous."
Zhu Jing chuckled, "Why do you think Fu Hongyu asked me for help at this time?"
The pilot was stunned for a moment, then realized he didn't know why either.
A girl with no distinguishing features, why would she be asked to come?
"Open it."
He reflexively opened the door. The next second, he almost died of fright. He saw the person who had been chatting and laughing moments ago jump down without any protection, not even a rope.
Lu Chongyan cried out in alarm and lunged forward. The pilot quickly closed the door, preventing his "suicidal jump." His quick hands caught sight of the person standing and falling to the ground.
"She's fine!"
Lu Chongyan's body went limp, and he collapsed onto the helicopter floor, his expression somewhat dazed.
On the deck, as Zhu Jing landed, the system began to scream frantically.
[Host! You'll be discovered by the world consciousness like this! You promised me you wouldn't break character. What are you doing!]
Zhu Jing waited for its outburst to subside before replying, "The world consciousness isn't reacting as much as you are."
Fu Hongyu had also witnessed some of her non-human actions, but her surprise was within a normal range, indicating that this world already had some unreasonable existences.
For example, the cultivation families she had seen on the forums.
In that case, flying down wasn't entirely impossible.
While skillfully killing people, she moved closer to Fu Hongyu. They soon rendezvoused. Fu Hongyu, limping, fought with the enemy with a gun, blood splattered on his face and body, making him look disheveled and terrifying.
Gunshots continued unabated.
Fu Hongyu reloaded his magazine methodically and said gratefully, "I didn't expect to trouble you. I didn't think they would bring people from cultivation families. This is your specialty, thank you for coming."
The world consciousness fell silent. The system also quieted down.
"Cultivation families, what are they?"
Fu Hongyu's surprise lasted for a moment. He put aside suspicion and questions, "Like you, they have some superhuman abilities. The one opposite us is using Eastern ninja techniques; they can go invisible."
Of course, it wasn't true invisibility, just some illusions.
Zhu Jing raised her hand and drew a talisman in the air. Golden light followed her finger, quickly taking shape. "I can do that too."
She disappeared.
Fu Hongyu, surprised, breathed a sigh of relief.
With such power, she should be fine.
Zhu Jing found the expert who could "turn invisible" and discovered that the person was merely skilled at using shadows and concealing their breathing, which was rather disappointing.
She didn't even need to use spiritual energy. After a brief scuffle, she had the person's vital point. She was about to study them further when the person suddenly babbled something incomprehensible, and Zhu Jing accidentally pressed them to death.
She looked up at the stacked containers, gently put down the person in her hands, and then pursued, finally catching the person by the neck after a few chases.
[Host, don't kill him! That's the male lead!]
Zhu Jing frowned and threw the masked man on the ground.
"I was invited by Fu Hongyu."
The man replied in a hoarse voice, cleared his throat, then removed the mask, revealing a face of unparalleled handsomeness.
Comparable to Lu Chongyan and Fu Hongyu.
Striking looks were also a standard feature of a male lead.
His voice was still hoarse. "You are Miss Lu Jing, aren't you? Thank you."
"You're welcome."
They left together. Zhu Jing's arrival turned the tide of the entire battle. She killed her way through and eliminated the strongest opponent. Fu Hongyu led his men in a fierce fight. Finally, seeing they were outnumbered, the remaining few surrendered.
