...
When Sun Hang arrived at the helipad on the roof of the research building, there were already two Mysterious Creature Hunters waiting for him.
Both of them were wearing heavy rain cloaks, but the difference in their body sizes was enormous—the person on the left was like an iron tower. Among the Hunters Sun Hang had seen, only Iron Wall could surpass him in size; the person on the right was extrely petite, looking like a child who hadn't started to grow yet.
On the way here, Yang Qi had already sent Sun Hang the profiles of the cooperating Hunters for this mission. The two Hunters were a man and a woman; the man was nad Liu Li and unlike most Hunters, he didn't choose a crazy cool code na, whereas the female Hunter used the code na "Crystal Princess."
"Are you Liu Li?" Sun Hang pointed at the nearly three-ter-tall giant, then looked at the petite Hunter, "Then you must be 'Crystal Princess'?"
"You've got the wrong person." The petite Hunter removed his cloak's hood, revealing a handso youthful face. His looks were absolutely of a kind that would drive European priests wild—a fact Sun Hang was sure of: this was a boy, not a girl.
The profile clearly stated that Hunter "Crystal Princess" was female, genuinely female, not so random English letters, nor an ard helicopter or Walmart shopping bag.
"I am the Mysterious Creature Hunter, Liu Li," said the small boy.
"You're Liu Li? Then you..." Sun Hang looked at the other burly Hunter, feeling a wave of chill, "You must be the legendary 'Crystal Princess'?"
"Many people find it hard to associate my code na with my image when they first hear it, but that's fine; I'm used to it," Crystal Princess said casually after taking off her hood.
To be honest, from a normal aesthetic point of view, just judging by the face, Crystal Princess was actually quite good-looking... it's just that when this head was attached to such a body, the extre contrast always gave people a sense of surrealism.
"It's all the elevator's fault, it was too fast," Sun Hang imdiately passed the buck, "Mr. Yang sent your profiles, and I only had ti to see one na and gender before the elevator arrived."
"It's okay." Unlike Liu Li's aloof deanor, Crystal Princess seed more approachable, "My brother filled in this code na for ; I later wanted to change it but couldn't think of anything better at the ti, so it stayed. For convenience, you can just call Crystal."
"I think I've co up with a pretty fitting code na for you," Sun Hang suddenly said as an idea flashed in his mind.
"Is it 'Valkyrie'?" Crystal asked.
"How did you know?" Sun Hang couldn't help but wonder—could it be that Crystal Princess's ability is also 'Mind Reading'?
"Because that's the code na my brother originally wanted for , but when entering it into the system, he found soone else was already using it, so it got changed to Crystal Princess," Crystal explained.
"Soone's using that kind of code na?" Sun Hang was slightly surprised.
"Yeah, and that Hunter has already died… although there's no clear rule about whether a fallen Hunter's code na can be reclaid, my brother said it wouldn't be auspicious to do that, so he chose another one."
Sun Hang suddenly thought of Candle Dragon, a code na passed down through generations in their family, and it didn't seem to have any taboos about auspiciousness or not...
"You guys can discuss code nas slowly." Liu Li suddenly spoke up, his voice slightly impatient, "For now, let's not waste valuable mission ti."
"Let's get on the plane first; we can talk about other things on the way," Crystal said. She bent low to crawl into the cabin—given her size, she couldn't stand upright inside this helicopter cabin and had to stay hunched the whole ti. Even then, her head was still pressed against the ceiling.
"Okay." Sun Hang and Liu Li also climbed into the cabin.
The three helicopters took off simultaneously. Besides the one Sun Hang and his team were on, the other two helicopters were carrying an elite special forces team and a load of sophisticated, expensive monitoring equipnt.
"Speaking of which, can I ask a question?" Sun Hang looked at Crystal and asked.
"Go ahead."
"Who is your brother?" The ability of Thought Peeping, when used on infected individuals, would give them a noticeable "discomfort," so Sun Hang refrained from using Mind Reading Technique on them unless necessary.
But for so reason, he subconsciously felt that Crystal Princess's brother should be soone he knew.
"Iron Wall," Crystal Princess replied.
Of course.
Sun Hang couldn't help but internally comnt, thinking that it was unexpected for the otherwise stern Iron Wall to have such a quirky side when it ca to his sister.
But speaking of which, judging by the size of these two, they really are siblings.
One can only wonder what their parents look like... could their whole family be this "imposing"?
"You just said you didn't have ti to look at our profiles, right?" Liu Li, sitting across from Sun Hang, asked coldly. "While we have ti, we should inform each other of our abilities, so I can tailor an action plan suited to your strengths in the upcoming mission."
