Woyu hoped that he would pass out as soon as possible.
He hoped that when he woke up, the battle would be over and he would be lying in the infirmary, waiting for Silas to bring him a glass of whiskey. Unfortunately, even though his bones felt like they had been run over, he was still conscious after blinking his eyes a few times. He could feel that his throat was being squeezed tightly by a pair of iron-like fingers, and not much air could flow through his windpipe.
The man's heavy breathing turned into waves of hot air on the back of Woyu's neck.
The tall figure in front of him walked toward the two of them step by step. Her posture was so leisurely that it was as if she was strolling in the garden alone. She had no weapon in her hand, and she had no Special Item. Her whole body was loose, and she seemed to be full of openings. However, when Woyu stood in front of her, for the first time, he felt the aura that was hidden in her bones.
If there were such a cheetah strolling leisurely on the African grasslands, your greatest wish would be that it would ignore you, pass you, and disappear into the grass.
"Don't come any closer, or I'll kill him," the man's hoarse voice rang in Woyu's ears.
Lin Sanjiu shrugged.
"You won't," she said casually. However, Woyu wished that she could be more serious when it came to her own life. "If you kill him, you won't have any bargaining chips left. I hope you can come out from behind him and have a good fight with me. "
Apparently, she was telling the truth because she continued to walk toward the two of them without any intention of stopping. The man behind Woyu panicked. Suddenly, Woyu felt a sharp pull on his neck. Just as his heart skipped a beat, he saw a flash of silver light from the corner of his eyes. When the chill brushed past his skin, he felt goosebumps all over his body.
Like a nimble cat, Lin Sanjiu leaped to the side and dodged the ax's attack. She took a few steps to the side, and the man behind her immediately grabbed Woyu and spun him around so that his body was still facing Lin Sanjiu.
"He took quite a few hits," Lin Sanjiu said as she tried to get behind the man. She looked at Woyu's face and said, "What? You dare to hit him, but you don't dare to hit me?"
"The reason why I was able to survive the Apocalypse was not because I was goaded into action." The man seemed to have bent down and buried his face behind Woyu's neck. His breath, which reeked of blood, was hot on Woyu's skin.
The taller woman nodded thoughtfully. Suddenly, she sped up and pounced toward the right rear of the two. Woyu's scream was stuck in his throat. His vision spun rapidly, and when he regained his balance, he found that Lin Sanjiu was still in front of him.
She tried to sneak behind the two of them, but she failed.
Can't you bring out some of your true abilities? Tears welled up in Woyu's eyes. He tried to open his mouth, but no sound came out. He had seen Lin Sanjiu fight before, so he knew very well that she had yet to use her full strength. Anxiety, doubt, and urgency made his head spin.
After a few careless attempts, the three of them slowly turned around in the hall and exchanged places with each other. But other than that, the situation did not improve.
"Hurry up if you want to kill him," Lin Sanjiu suddenly looked a little impatient. She waved her hand and summoned a whip. "One person won't be able to stop you from dying."
"Little girl, your disguise is transparent in front of me." The man behind her let out a low chuckle and pulled Woyu back a few steps. "If you really don't care about your boy toy, you would have already charged at him. The fact that you brought him into your house shows that you like him very much, although I don't see why. Do you think I'm afraid of you? I'm not weak, but I'm injured. I'm a cautious person, so I don't want to fight you face to face. "
Woyu made a series of muffled noises, but the man cut it off with a pinch of his fingers.
"Oh," the man's face finally regained some color. "He is not my boy toy. Where did you get that idea from? You are such a dirty person. "
'Is this important? '
The thought echoed in Woyu's mind. 'If you have time to explain, why don't you just do it?'
Just at this moment, he was hit by a heavy and violent force from behind. Even though there was a man between him and the man, Woyu still lost his balance. As soon as the man loosened his grip, Woyu fell forward. Before he could turn around to see what happened, Lin Sanjiu suddenly moved.
Like a bolt of lightning striking a dead tree in the wilderness, Woyu didn't even know when Lin Sanjiu passed him and crashed into the man's stomach. When Woyu sat on the ground and looked behind him, he saw the man fall between the two figures like a broken log.
Before he could touch the ground, Lin Sanjiu stretched out her hand and grabbed him by the collar.
Woyu looked at the blue man who had appeared in the hall out of nowhere and then looked at the black aircraft. Gradually, he understood what was going on. He stammered a little, "You … You've already … planned this? You made him turn his back to the aircraft … Yu … Yu Yuan took the opportunity to … Watch out! "
He screamed a warning, but it was too late. The man was still breathing after two rounds of heavy blows. When Lin Sanjiu pulled him up, he suddenly opened his eyes. Before Lin Sanjiu could react, the man's gloved right hand had already pressed on her arm.
Woyu's mind went blank, and he started to mutter incoherent words. It was not until Yu Yuan shouted, "Calm down!" that he realized Lin Sanjiu's arm was still attached to her body. It was not until Yu Yuan shouted, "Calm down!" that he realized Lin Sanjiu's arm was still attached to her body. There was a faint layer of white glow on her skin. If one did not look closely, one would not notice it.
"Huh? Huh?" Woyu rubbed his nose and looked around, "How … How did you …"
That was the man's question as well. His face was contorted in shock and indignation.
Lin Sanjiu did not answer Woyu. Instead, she lowered her head and smiled at the man.
"Are you not convinced? Do you think you lost? You really thought I was the only one in the aircraft. Otherwise, you wouldn't have fallen for my trick. " She did not care about the hand on her body. Instead, she grabbed the man's glove and tore it off. "Do you know why I used this method to get my partner to attack you?"
The man stared at his glove. His lips opened and closed as if he wanted to say something. However, his body was in such a terrible condition that he could not even complete such a simple task. Judging from the degree of distortion of his body, Yu Yuan's sneak attack must have shattered most of his spine. Lin Sanjiu's subsequent charge must have damaged most of his internal organs as well.
If she threw him down now, he would not live to see the morning.
Lin Sanjiu chuckled as the man spoke in a low voice, "Because I'm too lazy to fight. You are not a challenge at all. "
Woyu heaved a sigh of relief. His eyes were burning again. All of a sudden, he seemed to have lost all his strength. He collapsed to the ground and looked at the ceiling of the hall. It seemed to be the place where the ferry was stored, but now, there was only an empty support frame. Not far away, Lin Sanjiu's voice became softer and softer. The steel structure in front of him became more and more blurry. Gradually, he lost consciousness.
When he woke up again, his body was wrapped in thick white bandages. The plasterboard had secured his limbs, and the pain in his chest had lessened significantly. The lacerations on his skin had been carefully stitched up.
Yu Yuan was sitting by his bed, flipping through a magazine. There were still spots of blue paint in his eyebrows, behind his ears, and between his fingers. God knew how many times he had to wash them to get them clean.
"You're awake?" Yu Yuan narrowed his eyes and glanced at Woyu. "You seem to have something to say."
Woyu nodded his head. The bandages covered his entire face, leaving only his eyes exposed.
"Let me say it. I know what you want to say," Yu Yuan took a sip of his drink. Yu Yuan picked up a drink and took a sip. His face was covered in tattoos, and it was hard to read his expression. "We were a little too harsh. The man died before he could say a word. When I found the bridge, I found that the man had set Exodus in an emergency recovery state. I don't know why he didn't deactivate it when he left. "
The man thought that he could go back after he killed him.
"In that state, I helped Lin Sanjiu reset the key, and the system came back online. I found the coordinates of the canyon in the system log, and we are now flying back. " His tone made it seem as if these things were not even worth mentioning. "I've heard from Silas what happened before we boarded the ship." He paused for a moment and coughed, "Lin Sanjiu and I think that you have done a great job. You are amazing. I'm going to tell her that you're awake. She wants to thank you in person. "
Fortunately, the system did not know that he had wavered.
After Yu Yuan left the infirmary, Woyu glanced at the clock on the wall and realized that he had only been unconscious for a short time. Lin Sanjiu had boarded Exodus at midnight, and it was only nine o'clock in the morning now.
"Nine o'clock in the morning …" The words lingered in his mind for a while. Then, Woyu struggled to lift his arm and tore the bandage on his face, revealing his mouth.
When Lin Sanjiu hurried into the infirmary, she had already changed into a clean set of clothes. It was not her usual vest and combat pants, but a loose set of men's clothes. As soon as she saw Woyu sitting up, she rushed over and put a pillow on his back. Then, she thanked him sincerely.
It was not easy for Woyu to speak, so he spent most of the time listening quietly. After a while, he finally heard what he expected.
"… You will always have the authority of an administrator in Exodus' system. I know it may not be much, but I hope it can be a home for you. " Lin Sanjiu held his hand, and a gentle smile appeared on her face, which was usually very hard and cold. She looked more like a woman than ever before. "You are welcome. Also, I think this belongs to you. "
As she spoke, she stuffed a glove into his hand. The glove immediately took on the texture and color of the bandage. It was almost impossible to tell which was the glove and which was the bandage. It was such a powerful Special Item, yet Lin Sanjiu gave it to him without even looking at it.
"Thank you." Woyu looked at the glove and said in a hoarse voice, "That communicator …"
The question had been bothering him for a long time. "Why didn't she call me last night?"
Lin Sanjiu suddenly frowned. Then, she relaxed her brows and let out a sigh.
"Did you …" Lin Sanjiu found it hard to speak, but she still managed to finish what she wanted to say. "Did you call someone else?"
How did she know?
"I guessed it." Lin Sanjiu lowered her gaze and tucked the corner of his blanket. "That communicator can't be used anymore. That person is too far away from here. The structure of the communicator can only support such a long-distance call once. After that, it will be scrapped. "
She seemed to want to change the topic as soon as possible. Before he could say anything, she smiled and said, "I'll leave a new one for you. As long as you don't make a wrong call, we can contact each other anytime."
"You … You're leaving?"
"I'm going to check-in." Lin Sanjiu nodded. She looked at Yu Yuan and asked, "Are you ready?"
Exodus was still high up in the sky, and it would take more than half a day for it to land. In order not to miss the check-in, Lin Sanjiu decided to let Yu Yuan pilot the aircraft. Lin Sanjiu placed the communicator on Woyu's bedside and gave Silas a few words before she left with Yu Yuan. The infirmary suddenly became quiet. Woyu lay on the bed quietly for a while. Then, he gritted his teeth and slowly got out of bed.
Silas had sent her new manager another levitating pod and sent him all the way to the penitentiary.
"Lin Sanjiu told me to tell you that she doesn't have time to check-in with you today," Woyu supported himself and limped into Lollipop's cell. The door closed behind him. "But you haven't check-in for more than a day. If you run into any danger, just call for Silas. She …" Woyu coughed. "She will inform me."
After being locked up for some time, Lollipop had put on some weight. Her sharp chin had become a little rounder. She glanced at Woyu mockingly. "You? What the hell are you doing? Even if I inform you, what can you do? "
"I …" Woyu had to stop to catch his breath before he answered, "I can come and help you."
"Stop joking. You can't even walk." Lollipop got off the bed and stretched her body. "It doesn't matter if I can't check-in. I'm locked up here anyway. I can come in if there's no danger. Besides, can this house fly?"
She pointed at a small window and said, "I noticed something was wrong last night. I saw clouds floating outside the window!"
Woyu walked to the small window and looked out. After a while, he said reluctantly, "Don't tell anyone … You shouldn't know about this."
"Tell anyone?" Lollipop turned around and walked back to the bed impatiently. "Who can I tell if I'm locked up here? When are you going to let me go? "
Woyu followed her and stammered, "You … You have to ask Lin Sanjiu. I … I only know … "
"What do you only know?"
"I only know that your life is in danger."
