Chapter 193 The troops are divided into two groups
The ejected cockpit streaked across the sky like a meteor. A few seconds later, the abandoned mecha produced an expanding ball of light from the inside out, and a deafening explosion instantly resounded through the sky.
The shock wave shook violently, flying sand and rocks, and fire and smoke continued to emerge from the deep pit formed by the explosion.
An animal claw slowly stretched out from the smoke, grabbed the edge of the pit, and dragged his bruised body out with difficulty.
Not far away, in the shadow of the mecha wreckage, the figure of Night Owl emerged, half-crouching and half-kneeling, looking up.
"The escape device bounced the escape capsule to the east." He sighed, turning to look at his scarred companion: "How is it? Can you still move?"
The half-human, half-animal superpower stretched out his tongue and licked the blood mixed with the rain around his mouth, and replied hoarsely: "It's just a dream, it doesn't matter no matter how serious the injury is."
There was an imperceptible flash of color in Ye Xiao's eyes, but he said nothing.
The beast-turned-human was on all fours, hunched over in preparation for a sprint, while Night Owl once again sneaked into his shadow.
"Follow me."
After receiving the order, the muscles of the beast's limbs exerted force, and it rushed towards the steel jungle ahead like a cheetah.
The cockpit of the mecha landed on the rooftop of a building about five kilometers away. Yu Zhesen climbed out of the cabin, turned around and took the handle to pull Shi Xin out. The two stood on the edge of the rooftop and looked at the rainy and foggy city.
"It's so quiet. There are no flying cars or passers-by." Shi Xin murmured.
The rain had wet her blond hair, and her hair was wet and stuck to her cheeks. The surface of the dark tight-fitting combat uniform reflected the luster of the water. Even in a relatively embarrassing situation, her beauty was still otherworldly.
"Is our current situation not as good as before?" Yu Zhesen asked.
Now Shi Xin appears next to him in a physical form. Although it seems to have given him an extra helper, the connection between them in the past has been broken.
Yu Zhesen guessed that in this state, Shi Xin could not help him use those extra abilities.
"You guessed it right." Shi Xin's answer confirmed his worries, "How long has it been since the confrontation at Tianheng Department Store? I shouldn't have woken up so early."
"Then now..." The concern and worry in his eyes became more serious. He didn't know whether waking up early would have a negative impact on her, and he couldn't help but feel guilty in his heart.
Shi Xin shook his head: "No, thanks to Nanami Saki, I have no problem moving around in your dream world."
"Really?"
"Of course, and this is my territory." She turned back and glanced at the explosion site where the smoke was still lingering. "The two intruders are about to catch up."
Yu Zhesen nodded: "Night Owl has the ability to take away people killed by him in dreams. I am the target of his trip."
"Then how did the plan prepared by you and Nanami go?"
"Half and half."
His estimate of the situation is not very optimistic: "According to the plan, I should fight and retreat to lead Ye Xiao to the predetermined location, and find out what other hidden abilities he has, but now neither of these two points is perfect.
."
"Then where is the place you agreed on for the decisive battle?"
"The Fourth Middle School of Xingzhou City is at the eastern border of the new district."
Shi Xin thought for two seconds: "It's only 3 kilometers away from here in a straight line? That's very close."
"There is a canal in the eastern part of the new district. The school is across the river and we have to cross a bridge. And when we go downstairs now, we will probably be blocked by the night owl and the beast-turned-human being on the way..."
Yu Zhesen glanced at her when he said this: "Um...how is your fighting strength now? Can I rely on you?"
"Don't worry, I'm invincible. You can fight me at will - even though I really want to say so." Shi Xin said with a very dark sense of humor, "You can think of me now as a sister who cannot use 'Split Domain'."
The hope raised by Yu Zhesen was instantly extinguished: "That's a pure mascot, okay, I know, you are unreliable, I have to find a way myself."
"Hey, do you have so little respect for your sister now? What do you mean it is a pure mascot without a split field?"
"The meaning of the mascot is that I don't want her to take risks, and neither do you."
Shi Xin covered her mouth and laughed, then said: "Actually, I should be a little more useful than the mascot, as I said just now, right? This is my territory. Although in this state, the control ability is not as good as Nanami, but
It shouldn’t be a problem if I take you to jump off a building."
"Seriously?" Yu Zhesen glanced outside the rooftop. It is difficult to jump casually in a building with more than 30 floors without an exoskeleton equipped with buffer accessories.
Shi Xin nodded affirmatively.
"Then dance, there is no need to be rational in dreaming." Yu Zhesen held the hand she extended towards him.
The two of them took a few steps back, then ran forward together and jumped on the edge of the rooftop.
……
Click, click, click...
Huge raindrops hit the windows, and lightning flashes across the sky from time to time.
The lighting in the classroom seemed to be disturbed by lightning, and flickered on and off several times.
Yu Qingxue woke up from the desk, her eyes quickly changed from the initial hazy confusion to clear and sharp eyes.
This is the Fourth Middle School in Xingzhou City, the alma mater she once attended.
The electronic screen behind the podium is turned off, and there is still an after-school homework assignment assigned by the literature class lecturer - study extracurricular poems and choose one to write down your own understanding and insights, no less than 500 words.
She stared at the screen blankly for a long time, then suddenly laughed from the bottom of her heart.
"It seems Sakura has lived up to my trust, you're still here." Nanami Saki pushed open the door and hung the dripping umbrella on the doorknob.
"I'm not here to help you, and I'm not interested in the story between you and Qu Baizhou." Yu Qingxue smiled and looked at him.
Nanami Saki smiled slightly: "Is that for Yu Zhesen?"
"For myself," she said seriously, "to make up for my own mistakes - abilities like mind reading and mind control must not be left to an outlaw."
"Very good, do you need me to repeat your task?"
"No need, I know what I want to do." She stood up suddenly, turned and walked towards the back door of the classroom to leave.
"Hey, do you know why I chose this place?" Nanami Saki shouted towards her back.
Yu Qingxue stopped, turned his back to her and replied: "This is the place where my ability reaches its peak. Do you think I will be more confident in choosing this place as the battlefield?"
"Absolutely. Besides, I think it will be easier to sublimate your abilities in this place." She quickly caught up and when Yu Qingxue looked back at her in surprise, she stretched out her finger and pointed at the center of her eyebrows.
There was an expression of resistance on Yu Qingxue's face, but Nanami Saki said in a tone that could not be refuted: "Don't refuse! I know your spiritual world is scary, but this time I am mentally prepared enough."<
/p>
This time he will definitely succeed, instead of repeating the same mistakes he made before in front of his personality. Nanami Saki's eyes are full of confidence.
