But what choice does Zhong Yu have now?
The surveillance on the West Continent is strict; if soone not in the facial recognition database appears on the streets, they’ll be imdiately spotted.
So, Yan Liuyuan swaggered into the center of Black Water City with him, and as soon as they arrived, they were discovered.
Now, Yan Liuyuan dusted off his hands and walked away. How is Zhong Yu supposed to leave? He can only fight his way out!
He observed the surroundings, and a massive scarlet hand materialized beneath his feet.
Zhong Yu stood on the back of the scarlet hand, and the fingers of the scarlet hand crawled quickly on the ground like spider legs.
This scarlet hand seed like his mount, its scarlet fingers grappling onto the walls of buildings, climbing effortlessly, leaping between buildings without a hitch.
It was as if it had a soul of its own!
In the night sky, the scarlet hand continuously tore apart its foes. This pursuit battle went from the city center to the west of the city, with explosions constantly lighting up the sky, unsettling the vast Black Water City.
Yan Liuyuan must have ulterior motives for placing Zhong Yu here. With Zhong Yu’s character, he couldn’t be recruited by anyone nor could he compromise. He’s like a powerful bomb, exploding wherever he’s thrown.
Everyone would be blown to pieces.
This ti, Black Water City was utterly disgusted. Suddenly having a mad demigod thrown into the city center left them completely unprepared.
In the Black Water Air Fortress, the Duke of Blackwater had been awakened from his sleep. Wearing a bishop’s robe, he walked to the holographic sand table, coldly observing the battlefield below.
But he didn’t take action directly; he suspected that soone was setting a trap for him.
...
...
Zhong Yu glanced at his arm; the countdown that should have been there was gone!
He was stunned for a mont, wondering how the countdown could disappear.
It’s well known that for many people, even if they’ve modified their limbs with machinery, the countdown would still appear directly on the chanical limbs. How could it vanish?
Could it be that after being stripped by Li Shentan, he’s completely beco a person of the Inner World?!
He roughly calculated the ti, fearing only a few minutes were left until he returned.
Taking advantage of the gap as the pursuers fell behind, Zhong Yu finally found a blind spot in the surveillance and landed directly in a small alley.
At this mont, a holess man was lying on a cardboard box in the alley. Zhong Yu landed on him, transforming into a liquid state, completely enveloping the man.
The silver liquid nanorobots wriggled constantly, and the holess man inside let out a sharp scream that couldn’t be heard outside.
In just a little over ten seconds, the liquid nanorobots had perated the holess man’s body. When he opened his eyes again, the holess man’s consciousness had been wiped, leaving only Zhong Yu’s consciousness.
He slowly closed his eyes and went back to sleep, letting the hovering airships and drones pass by overhead.
A drone flew into the box and began scanning the holess man continuously.
The drone issued a warning: "Stand up, hands on head, face the drone for facial recognition!"
With the holess man’s body, Zhong Yu stood up and said in bewildered English, "It wasn’t , it wasn’t !"
The drone ignored his words and coldly commanded, "Blink."
Zhong Yu complied and blinked.
The drone then ordered, "Nod."
Zhong Yu complied and nodded.
Three seconds later, the drone flew away, leaving the bewildered ’holess man’ standing there.
"Hee hee."
...
...
Return.
Zard opened his eyes in his dorm room on Whale Island and imdiately turned to observe Huan Yu.
Da Yu asked coldly, "What are you looking at? What’s going on between you and that Lian Xin?"
"Wait," Zard exclaid, "don’t you think sothing’s strange?"
"Strange about what?"
"Zhong Yu hasn’t returned!" Zard said, "I was worried he might co back here too, but it turns out he can’t co back at all!"
At this point, Da Yu also realized... compared to Qing Chen, Zhong Yu was actually his biggest concern. That dormant personality was too evil; even he didn’t know what to do.
Now that Zhong Yu had been stripped away, even his qualification as a Ti Traveler was gone.
Da Yu let out a long sigh: "As long as we can strip him away, he can go wherever he wants. It’s none of our business. By the way, where’s the letter Xiao Yu wrote ?"
Zard pulled it out of his stomach and handed it over.
Just then, there was a knock on the door, and Luo Wanya’s voice ca from outside: "Gentlen, the boss just called and hopes you two can stay on Whale Island. Also, next ti you head to the Inner World, et up in City No. 5. Start at the wilderness settlent, and soone will et you with a Door of Shadow."
Da Yu grumpily opened the door and asked, "That’s your boss, not mine!"
Luo Wanya chuckled heartily: "Sa, sa."
"Sa what," Da Yu wanted to lose his temper, but couldn’t in the face of Luo Wanya’s friendliness: "Did he say what’s going on in City No. 5?"
"No, he only instructed us to send a Golden Eye of Truth to a certain place in the Outer World. He didn’t say anything else... By the way, he said he found sothing very fun and invited everyone to join in!" Luo Wanya said.
Da Yu and Zard exchanged glances, fun? What fun?
When Luo Wanya ntioned the Golden Eye of Truth, Da Yu guessed that Qing Chen wanted to open the door between the East and West Continents. The other party seed to have temporarily gained a foothold and could call in reinforcents! It’s just uncertain when he’ll do it!
Da Yu pouted, "Trying to pull us in as muscle again, huh?"
Luo Wanya shook his head: "I don’t know."
Da Yu asked, "When does he plan to take us to the West Continent?"
Luo Wanya shook his head again: "I don’t know."
"You know nothing," Da Yu said impatiently, "You go back first; we need to think about it."
Luo Wanya tentatively asked: "Think about what?"
Zard said on the side: "We need to think about how we can follow Qing Chen’s orders to gather, but at the sa ti, appear very unwilling, so he’ll owe us a favor."
Da Yu widened his eyes at Zard: "Are you crazy?!"
How could you expose my true thoughts like that!
After sending Luo Wanya off, Da Yu didn’t speak to Zard. He sulkily sat by the bed and opened Xiao Yu’s letter.
This was his favorite warm mont:
"Brother, Zard and I t the sisters and aunties of the Lian clan, and so golden grandpas. The Lian clan sisters are very handy; they helped fold many Yu Yan."
"Zard said he wanted to take to the Lian clan’s village for fun. I actually miss Brother Qing Chen and Sister Yangyang a bit. But Zard said if I go to the Lian clan’s village with him, he would build a large bamboo house there, and you must see the bamboo house he builds for ."
Da Yu remained expressionless; you should see the trouble your Brother Zard has caused .
Going to the Agricultural College was Zard’s mischief, and going to the Lian clan was also his doing. This Zard takes every opportunity while I’m asleep to pull his tricks!
Originally, Da Yu wanted to write back, blaming Xiao Yu for being too easily duped by Zard. But thinking about how Xiao Yu was constantly being ntally devoured by Zhong Yu, he felt a pang of heartache and couldn’t bring himself to say anything accusatory.
