Lin Mushi thought the little system was joking, but she didn't expect the little system to emphasize its tone and tell her earnestly.
"Host, I'm telling the truth!"
"He's really in trouble!"
Lin Mushi immediately turned her head to look in Ling Qianhe's direction, and where her gaze could reach, the vortex around Ling Qianhe had stopped at some unknown time.
The originally distorted space gradually returned to normal.
And the mechas surrounding his body seemed to sense this, and without any hesitation, they pounced fiercely at Ling Qianhe, almost as if to tear him apart in an instant!
Ling Qianhe's exquisitely beautiful face showed a mocking, cold smile, and a chill gradually permeated his eyes, and then – those mechas rushed towards him, starting to tear his body apart.
Close-quarters combat.
He was actually resisting mechas forged from steel with his bare flesh and blood.
As time passed, blood trickled down his body. His expression remained unchanged, only his movements appeared slightly slow. From afar, one could see wisps of bloody mist drifting away, all of it fresh blood flowing from his body!
Large swathes of blood steamed away.
It looked, at times, even shocking.
Lin Mushi immediately became anxious. She reminded the little system Yue Xiao in a flustered tone.
"What should we do now?"
"Hurry, hurry and save him?"
"Please, *wuwuwu*..."
"Hurry and save him..."
The little system Yue Xiao said.
"It's not time yet, Host, if you go over now, you might be torn to shreds!"
"So, the best time is still to wait a moment."
The little system's tone carried a hint of helplessness.
"Shall we wait a bit longer?"
Hearing the little system say this, Lin Mushi was about to rush out, but she was pulled back by the little system. The little system patiently told Lin Mushi.
"Host, I think we can really wait a bit longer."
The little system sighed.
"If he weren't seriously injured, and you saved him, given his suspicious nature, he would likely suspect that you had colluded with someone else."
"Isn't there also such a possibility?"
"Host, what do you think?"
Lin Mushi still felt a little reluctant, and the little system Yue Xiao earnestly persuaded her.
"Host, I think... you should wait a bit longer, wait until the situation gets worse. Anyway, he won't die..."
Then Lin Mushi looked up and saw a loud bang in the distance. The sound almost made Lin Mushi stare in amazement. The sound reverberated in all directions, and the tremendous noise even made her breath catch. A massive cannonball, trailing a streak of light, flashed past her eyes like lightning, and the flames roared, almost engulfing everything.
This was…
Indiscriminate artillery fire!
Lin Mushi dodged the center of the fire, but even so, the aftermath still buffeted her body with wave after wave. Her vision even blurred for a moment. She gave a bitter smile, her voice tinged with a hint of bitterness.
"Are you sure he'll be alright?"
This time, even the little system dared not speak.
The flames flashed rapidly, like meteors streaking across the sky. The mechas began to retreat, and the spacecraft was about to leave this battle zone and head to another location where the mine was.
Only after these mechas had completely retreated did Lin Mushi take a deep breath. Without any further hesitation, she lunged directly towards the deep pit that had been covered by the firepower!
"Please..."
"He must live..."
In the deep pit after the firepower coverage, she was afraid to see the corpse of the once incredibly proud prison warden. In the deep pit, she jumped out of the medical mecha and frantically searched the ruins, filled with ash and the strong smell of ammunition, for that man who was so arrogant he was unbearable.
But there was no one.
No matter where she looked…
There was no trace of that man.
She searched everywhere in a panic, worried beyond measure, afraid that he had already turned to ashes under the bombardment.
The next second, a hand suddenly reached out and, without hesitation, tightly grasped her throat! Her eyes widened in shock, and she heard the man's low, fearsome warning in her ear. Da Feng Novel Network
"Why are you here?"
The space rippled strangely, and then the man's body appeared behind her.
He must have been hiding in a spatial rift, thus escaping the disaster.
He survived under an unavoidable, heavy bombardment, but his face bore battle damage that looked heartbreaking. Blood was smeared on his cheek, and he pursed his thin lips, staring at her with eyes as sharp as a beast's.
"Who brought you here?"
Lin Mushi was stunned by his sharp gaze. Her movements paused instantly, but only for a moment. She immediately tilted her head up, looking at the man opposite her with an extremely pure gaze, and then Lin Mushi said softly.
"I wanted to come and see."
The man opposite her sneered, clearly not believing Lin Mushi's words at all.
"See?"
"See what? Do you know what this place is?"
Lin Mushi silently shook her head.
She said softly.
"I don't know... I just saw firelight here, so I wanted to come and see."
The man opposite her reeked of blood. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Lin Mushi for a long time. After a few seconds, the man suddenly snorted and then found an excuse for the girl opposite him.
"Ji Feng told me that the Prince of the Canghai Empire attacked him, and you were sucked into a black hole and disappeared. Did the black hole transport you to the Galactic Battlefield?"
Since Ling Kuang said so, Lin Mushi naturally nodded in agreement and quickly replied with a cheerful tone.
"Yes, yes, the black hole transported me here."
"So this place is called the Galactic Battlefield? I really didn't know, hehe."
"Is the Galactic Battlefield very powerful, very brilliant? What was that firelight just now? I saw the firelight shining so brightly, I thought something had happened..."
The man opposite her furrowed his brow. He coughed and nonchalantly wiped away the blood from the corner of his lips with his finger. Lin Mushi glanced at the faint bloodstain on his fingertip, her eyes suddenly widened, and her voice became flustered again.
"How... how did you spit blood?"
"Are you sick?"
Lin Mushi, extremely worried, reached out to grab his finger.
He wanted to shake her off, but his body swayed, and then he slowly collapsed into Lin Mushi's arms.
His long, black eyelashes fluttered twice, and Lin Mushi said.
"Ah, you seem to be injured!"
"I, I'll take you to get treated!"
Her heart was already brimming with excitement.
She was so looking forward to this hero saving the damsel scenario – except that he was a strong man saving a beautiful woman, and she was a strong woman saving a handsome man!
