Chapter 49: Entangled Battle? Intimate Entanglement!
Lu Youyou mentally prepared herself before stepping out of the house, but no one was home.
Regardless of whether it was a thoughtful gesture from Gu Qingye, at least she did not have to face him at this exact moment, and Lu Youyou let out a long sigh of relief.
She patted her cheeks, warning herself not to let her imagination run so wild; the main conflict had yet to be resolved, and preserving her little life was the top priority.
She first changed into her athletic wear and sneakers, then cleared away the small stones in the courtyard to avoid spraining her ankle and getting injured during the upcoming lesson.
As for Gu Qingye, what else could he possibly need? With an internet commercial empire like Tencent, what could they not satisfy?
"There are five minutes left before the start of the match. Take your positions! Prepare for battle!" Pan Hongjun shouted sternly.
In the pitch-black night sky and over the silent river, an explosion rang out. On the deck, Ding Zhan was torn to pieces by the explosion of the black dragon. Moreover, the black demonic dragon was an area-of-effect attack, and amid the tearing sound of the zither, it blew up the entire passenger ship. The vessel and all the ordinary civilians aboard were instantly reduced to countless fragments.
The number of components in this equipment set even exceeded that of the Super-God Set. It included a weapon, a sub-item, a helmet, a jacket, trousers, boots, a necklace, a ring, and a bracers, with an additional heavy armor piece for the battle gear.
"Bursting Scatterflower!" Kasha condensed an energy arrow in her hand once again, shooting it upward into the sky. Following that, like fireworks, another loud explosion echoed, and a cascade of light points rained down once more.
Wei Xiaodong had developed a deep affection for Jiangnan. He had benefited immensely here, and now that his sudden departure was at hand, a trace of reluctance unexpectedly stirred within his heart.
The giant sword reflected the lightning flashing across the sky and slashed into the darkness. The dark aura was instantly split open down the middle, only to surge back from both sides the very next moment, swallowing his body with astonishing speed.
"Li Hanfan, you've done well. Have Shi Tianze and Li Quan been captured?" Shimo Guangyan brushed him aside and asked Li Ye.
Tall earthen walls blocked several of the nearby main streets, so the blocks where everyone currently stood had not yet been submerged by the huge waves. Seizing the opportunity, the people climbed onto the roofs and continued their escape along the rows of closely connected houses.
Aside from the projections of the two upper gods, Balzer and Lamei, the most eye-catching sight on the battlefield was the hive-like monster tree. The adventurers recognized it as a powerful lesser artifact and thus all rushed toward it.
Disregarding those people's expressions, Zhang Fan immediately fished out a true-essence-restoring pill and shoved it into his mouth. At this critical juncture, he could not afford to wait for natural recovery.
This finally allowed the cliff face to support his weight. Using this method, he carved out holes one by one on the precipice, fashioning makeshift ladders from the branches he had gathered. After taking about a couple of hours and going back and forth up the cliff face several times, he finally reached the top of the precipice.
There was only an endless, insatiable craving for human flesh and blood. The soldiers of both sides engaged in a fierce, life-or-death battle. For a moment, no mutated zombies appeared, and the frontlines of both sides remained basically stable. Relying on their sturdy armor and sharp blades, the humans firmly withstood the zombie onslaught, causing massive numbers of zombies to fall amidst the forest of bayonets and spears.
Tu Baobao comforted herself for a moment, then reached out to wipe the beads of sweat continuously seeping from Nangong Yuhan's forehead. Was Nangong Yuhan made of water or something? How could he sweat this much?
This seemed to be the habit of that domineering older man—whenever he took her somewhere, he never told her in advance, always leaving her with a shock upon arrival.
"They're coming! It's them!" the reporter off-camera shouted excitedly. She seemed even more agitated than the surrounding onlookers. The reporter then raised her microphone high, charged toward the side of the road, and squeezed desperately into the middle of the street. Police officers blocked the way with their bodies, constantly shouting at everyone to step back.
Young Master Mo hurried back only to hear sounds coming from Su Jin's room. Catching sight of her open door, a sense of foreboding rose in his heart. He flashed inside Su Jin's room to find a shattered table and Zhongli Luo, whose face was filled with fury.
