259: Please collect the blood of Cang Miao! (Third update)

“The third option is…”

Lin Yang met the Marked Man’s cold gaze and said, “I won’t hand over the slave, and I won’t die!”

“Won’t hand over the slave, and won’t die?”

The Marked Man scoffed as if he had heard a joke, “Little guy, my patience is limited. You’d best not try to provoke me!”

Having said that, he extended a finger and coldly stated, “Alright, I’ve heard your joke. Now, you have one second left!”

“One second is enough to say goodbye.” Lin Yang smiled faintly, waved at the Marked Man under his furious gaze, and then cut the communication.

“Host, Apocalypse’s extreme escape mode has been activated!”

The next second, accompanied by a reminder from the System, the Apocalypse vibrated violently. Its hull was instantly enveloped by a light blue energy shield, and then it burst forth with unprecedented speed, rushing towards the depths of the universe.

“Hmph, trying to escape? How naive!”

However, the Marked Man looked at the suddenly accelerating Apocalypse without much surprise. He merely sneered, “Break Apocalypse’s extreme escape mode!”

“Yes, Commander!”

The subordinate immediately took the order.

Following closely, three spaceships also accelerated instantly, chasing after the Apocalypse.

At the same time, a special energy wave erupted from one of the warships, directly tethering itself to the Apocalypse. Then, the entire Apocalypse vibrated again, and its speed surprisingly slowed down sharply.

“System, what’s going on?”

Inside the Apocalypse, Lin Yang was instantly startled.

“Host, the opponent used a high-level energy traction pulse, forcibly interrupting Apocalypse’s extreme escape mode.”

“What? The extreme escape mode can be interrupted?” Lin Yang was instantly stunned.

Then, before the System could explain, the Marked Man’s cold voice once again came from afar:

“Heh heh, what a naive guy. Apocalypse’s unique extreme escape mode is indeed extraordinary, but did you think I would be unprepared?”

As he spoke, the Apocalypse was once again locked onto by the opponent’s warship weapon System.

Lin Yang’s heart sank.

The technological means the Marked Man possessed were too advanced.

Even Apocalypse’s extreme escape mode could be forcibly interrupted.

This was a bit unexpected.

Cang Miao, seeing the situation, gritted his teeth and said, “Commander, please hand me over. They are here for me. You will be safe if you hand me over.”

Lin Yang shook his head directly, “They destroyed Guiyun Star to keep your information secret. Even if I hand you over, they won’t let it go.”

“Then, then…” Cang Miao stood rooted to the spot, unsure of what to do.

“Don’t worry, I’ll think of another way.” Lin Yang comforted Cang Miao.

Cang Miao fell silent. After a brief few seconds of silence, he suddenly said again, “Commander, only if I am alive when my blood is taken will the effect be best. Please let me go down. I can buy you a little time.”

“Don’t talk nonsense. Handing you over to them now means certain death for you.” Lin Yang shook his head again.

The other party would never let him go just because he handed over Cang Miao.

Handing Cang Miao over now would only send him to his death for nothing.

He stopped talking to Cang Miao and instead communicated with the System.

At present, he could almost only rely on the System to think of a way.

Cang Miao still wanted to say something, but the Marked Man’s voice came again:

“Little guy, I’ll give you one last chance. Hand over the slave, and I can spare your civilization. Otherwise, I will find your civilization, find your relatives and friends, and torture them to death one by one!”

He coldly stared at the Apocalypse.

Although the blood of the Wu Cang Clan slave had the best effect when taken while he was alive, a corpse was not entirely unusable.

As long as he hadn’t been dead for too long, the effect wouldn’t be much different.

He was starting to lose his patience.

The next instant, the Marked Man projected a ten-second countdown timer outside the spaceship and said coldly:

“I will count down ten numbers. If you still refuse to hand over the slave within ten breaths, then I don’t mind taking a corpse back.”

“Ten.”

“Nine.”

“Eight.”

“…”

The Marked Man counted down coldly.

Seeing the countdown about to end, Lin Yang couldn’t help but ask the System, “System, how is it? Have you thought of a way to escape?”

“Host, the power gap between you and the opponent is currently too great. Once the opponent opens fire, you will have no room for resistance. The System is accelerating the analysis of escape opportunities. Please wait.”

“There’s not much time left.” Lin Yang glanced at the huge countdown projection.

Only a few seconds remained.

He had no doubt that once the countdown ended, this Marked Man would instantly order to open fire.

The reason he hadn’t attacked immediately upon meeting was simply because the other party wanted to get Cang Miao alive as much as possible.

And now, with no chance of capturing Cang Miao alive, the other party would definitely not have any extra patience to continue stalling.

The Marked Man himself said he didn’t mind taking Cang Miao’s corpse back.

The atmosphere was somewhat heavy.

Cang Miao looked at the final countdown and said with a face full of guilt, “Commander, it’s all Cang Miao’s fault for causing you trouble. Thank you for taking care of Cang Miao during this time. Cang Miao has no way to repay you.”

Saying that, he suddenly pulled out a dagger and aimed it at his heart, while simultaneously saying:

“Commander, thank you for never treating Cang Miao as a slave and for teaching Cang Miao to train. Cang Miao has no other way to repay you. Cang Miao’s blood is the most valuable thing Cang Miao has right now. Please, Commander, take Cang Miao’s blood.”

“Cang Miao! Are you crazy? What are you doing? Stop it!!”

Lin Yang was instantly startled and quickly shouted, “Lin Mu, stop him!”

Upon receiving the order, Lin Mu moved so quickly that it was unclear how he did it. With a “clink,” the dagger in Cang Miao’s hand was struck down by him onto the deck, making a crisp sound.

Lin Yang, seeing Cang Miao’s wound, which had only managed to pierce half an inch into his skin, breathed a sigh of relief. He glared at Cang Miao and angrily said, “Are you crazy? Why are you trying to commit suicide for no reason?”

“Commander, Cang Miao is not committing suicide. Cang Miao doesn’t want to benefit those enemies outside. Although you don’t have the conditions to make a Gene Potion now, you can take Cang Miao’s heart blood and consume it. Although it’s not as good as a Gene Potion, it can also boost the physical energy of the consumer.”

Cang Miao explained, blushing.

“Heart blood is the most precious blood in my clan’s lineage. Without heart blood, it’s very difficult to refine a top-grade Gene Potion. Cang Miao offers his heart blood to you, and then I will go negotiate with those enemies to buy you some time to escape.”

Lin Yang was stunned, looking at Cang Miao’s serious expression. The words he had intended to scold him with stopped at his lips and were taken back, turning into a sigh:

“You don’t have to do this. I’ll figure out a way to escape.”

Cang Miao’s mouth slightly opened, wanting to say more.
