Chapter 123: Helping as an Interpreter
Garen still agreed to get Aoxi a police car. After all, he wanted Aoxi to make full use of his combat strength, and his own car really was broken. In Los Angeles, it was impossible to get around without a vehicle.
After the scene had been dealt with, everyone returned to the police station to sleep. The headquarters was actually worse than the branch station. The branch had plenty of space and a dedicated lounge where people could rest.
The headquarters had barely any room at all. If you wanted to sleep, you had to book a hotel yourself—or make do with a chair.
Aoxi found it terribly uncomfortable lying on the chair.
The moment the words left his mouth, he realized what he had said. But when he looked up again, Li Qi was nowhere to be seen.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!”
The arrows came in a rapid succession of shrill whistles. Zhu Donglai was startled and immediately rolled across the ground, narrowly evading the deadly shafts.
Lin Ye’s parents had no idea what was really going on. They, too, believed that Lin Ye and Ding Xiang were involved in a premature romance, so they sternly reprimanded Lin Ye and forbade him from seeing Ding Xiang again.
“Hmph. The Upper Realm must be behind this. Otherwise, there’s no way I could have failed to detect the Martial Ancestor.” The Netherworld Ghost Sea spoke in a booming voice, and enormous waves had already begun to rise across its surface.
Speak of the devil, and he appears. Just as Zhou Bai and Zhang Ziyi were following Wang Changdong through the sword forms, slowly imitating each movement with rigid precision, Jet Li, Maggie Cheung, and the others walked in as well.
After hearing this, Luo Shui’s Refining Formation also grew somewhat anxious. It struggled desperately to break free from the Sticky Ice Technique, but to no avail.
Then they saw Taisheng dismount as well. He exchanged a glance with Chilia, and the two of them climbed down from the backs of the deer beasts.
In fact, one day before Li Qi reached Ox Camel Peak, the kingdom had already formally declared war on the three Moon clans, using the surprise attack by an army of foreign races on the Great Wilderness as its pretext.
“Heehee, I picked up a treasure on the road just now and sold it for eleven hundred gold coins,” Beibei said cheerfully.
After hearing this, Mini and the others were left speechless. That girl Beibei managed to find something valuable every time she went out.
But no matter how they handled the matter, the Chaotic Star Region was far too dangerous for them at their current Golden Immortal cultivation. Apart from the Heavenly Martial Divine Saber, which could promptly slash open a passage for escape, weapons such as the Nine Fiend Soul Saber offered Wu Fan no protection whatsoever.
“The southwest?” Xu Yu’s brow twitched slightly, though he was not surprised. When he learned that Zhu Nao had brought a large number of civilians back, he had already formed several conjectures, and this result fell within their range.
He Shen had also told her at the time that he had sensed something strange earlier. It was only after this incident, however, that he became certain they had been under someone else’s surveillance.
“Don’t meddle. That’s their family business, and it’s not our place to interfere,” Mu Qian said calmly.
This script-idea collection campaign had no entry requirements whatsoever. Anyone could participate. As long as you put your mind to it and let your imagination run wild, any idea sufficiently original—whether feasible or not—would earn a substantial prize.
But it was precisely because of this that he understood what Xu Guangling’s earlier words truly meant.
In the Central Continent Team’s Lord God Space, two days had passed in the blink of an eye since that battle that had begun with great force but ended abruptly.
“You’re a wanted rebel on the run. What gives you the right to tell me what to do?” Fu Kang’an, still blazing with fury, cut him off.
The Replicant Zheng Zha nodded silently. He had considerable faith in Tom’s abilities. Moreover, although he had caught only a fleeting glimpse just now, he had clearly seen the Central Continent Team’s structure in the satellite photographs. Several familiar figures were there, but his original self was indeed absent.
Beside the corpse, Conan paced back and forth with one hand gripping his chin, using this final opportunity to examine the body.
Therefore, even though users hated this rogue software with a passion, not a single company was willing to take on the job.
Remember every movement the monster made: the prelude to each attack and the interval between attacks. Once you had memorized those patterns, dodging the monster’s assaults was not difficult.
The towering fortress walls blocked He Zun’s view. Combined with the fortress’s dense network of passageways, they made his eyes swim as he studied the map. It was truly maddening. No wonder a fortress designed with such complexity could hold back an invasion.
