93: The god reappears and enters the water prison by mistake
A cold glint instantly flashed in Lin Ling’s eyes.
“Where are you? Why are you using Li Shihan’s phone?”
“It’s a long story. I’m being hunted down, and I probably won’t be able to see you again. The other side has three Four-turn Assassins, all hitmen raised by the Xiao Corporation.”
Qin Xuan’s desperate voice came from the phone.
“Give me your coordinates!” Lin Ling coldly shouted.
“Boss, I’m glad to have known you. I forgot to tell you, I’m already Level 30, and my talent has upgraded to SS-rank. Can’t talk anymore, they’re catching up. You need to escape Xiao, quickly… Boom…”
Qin Xuan’s voice abruptly cut off with a roar.
Lin Ling dialed again, but the phone was already turned off.
At this moment, his face was ashen, and an overwhelming killing intent surged from his heart.
“Xiao Yan, you deserve to die!”
Lin Ling immediately clicked on Ji Mo’s phone number and called him.
“Boss, you’ve finally appeared again.”
“Why didn’t you reply to my messages?”
“How can you not reply to my messages? Stop disappearing all the time, okay?”
“Buddy, I’ve got some good news and some bad news. Which do you want first…”
Lin Ling frowned, “Dog, help me find the coordinates of a phone number first, it’s urgent.”
Ji Mo instantly reined in his playful demeanor and said seriously, “Give me the number.”
Lin Ling reported the phone number, and in less than 10 seconds, coordinates were sent to his phone.
“Dog, talk to you later.”
“Phantom, coordinates: 3124, 2370. Depart!”
【Received, expected to arrive in 35 seconds!】
...
Autumn Wild Blue Cloth City, 10 kilometers north of the city.
A thin figure, carrying a woman, quickly moved through the mountains.
Behind him, two Skeleton Archers had only a sliver of health left.
Qin Xuan’s mana was completely depleted. In the past hour, he was somewhat impressed that he had survived.
Originally, escaping from the Forbidden Spell was a near-death experience. If his Undead creatures hadn’t absorbed damage, he would have died a hundred times over.
He finally managed to escape the Forbidden Spell’s range, only to be discovered by a team of assassins sent by the Xiao Corporation.
There were five Four-turn Assassins on the other side, and he had managed to exhaust two of them to death using his Skeleton Squad.
But at this moment, he didn’t even have a single mana potion, only relying on his automatic mana regeneration to replenish the number of Undead creatures.
And now, the two Undead creatures he had just summoned were already at critically low health.
“Kid, where do you think you’re going to run?”
“Just surrender and die!”
“Still calling for help, hoping someone will save you? By the time your reinforcements arrive, you’ll already be long dead.”
Behind Qin Xuan, three figures were closely following.
One of them held a laser gun, continuously shooting at the two small skeletons.
While technological weapons didn’t grant experience for killing monsters, it didn’t mean they couldn’t cause damage to them.
Bang, bang…
After two gunshots, the health bars of the last two small skeletons were also cleared.
And at this moment, Qin Xuan’s mana was not enough for him to summon another one.
Qin Xuan was in a desperate situation.
At this moment, without the threat of the small skeletons, the three assassins began to rapidly close in.
“Big brother, just finish him off with one shot.”
“Alright, alright, an Undead Mage? Under technological weapons, you’re just trash.”
“Even a god wouldn’t be able to save you!”
The assassin raised his laser gun, slowly aiming at Qin Xuan’s head in front, a sinister smile curling on his lips.
However, at this very moment…
Buzz…
A brilliant blue ray suddenly pierced through the clouds, instantly engulfing two of the assassins.
Under the baptism of the laser cannon, the two assassins instantly evaporated, leaving no trace of ash behind.
The assassin running behind was stunned on the spot.
Just moments ago, they were using their laser guns to torment the little mage.
How could they be blasted by a laser cannon so quickly?
He slowly looked up, his eyes already filled with horror.
A terrifying red fighter jet tore through the sky.
One of its sixteen menacing laser cannons was slowly glowing with a brilliant blue angelic light.
Buzz…
The space vibrated, and the last assassin instantly followed in the footsteps of the previous ones.
Those who kill will be killed.
The essence of this world has never been about reason; it’s merely the law of the jungle.
At this moment, Qin Xuan was also stunned on the spot.
He gazed at the blue light pillar gradually dissipating in the sky, subtly lost in thought.
These two beams of light might appear as mere laser cannon beams to others.
But in his eyes, it was as if he had returned to his childhood, to the moment when the silver-armored deity appeared.
It was the same moment of life and death, the same descent from the sky.
“Silver-armored deity, have you come?”
Just as Qin Xuan was lost in thought, an anti-gravity beam appeared beneath the fighter jet, and Lin Ling, clad in a white magic robe, descended from the sky.
Qin Xuan’s pupils suddenly contracted. At this moment, Lin Ling perfectly overlapped with the silver-armored deity in his memory.
“Boss, Boss is really the silver-armored deity.”
He murmured, his eyes already brimming with tears.
The next second, Lin Ling had already rushed to his side.
“How are you? Are you badly hurt?”
As Lin Ling’s voice sounded, Qin Xuan’s face instantly broke into a foolish grin.
“Boss.”
“What are you grinning about? I asked if you were badly hurt?”
“Oh, oh, not badly. She’s almost gone.”
Qin Xuan suddenly woke up and quickly put down Li Shihan from his back.
Lin Ling frowned when he saw Li Shihan’s half-bloody and disfigured face.
Lin Ling asked, “What happened?”
“Xiao Yan hit her with a Wolf Tooth Hammer,” Qin Xuan said.
“The injury is too severe. Red potions won’t save her. It’s already a miracle she’s alive until now,” Lin Ling shook his head.
“Then what do we do? Xiao Yan wants to frame you. She can’t die. She called someone from the military district and said she was kidnapped by you. If she dies, it’ll be impossible to explain,” Qin Xuan said anxiously.
Lin Ling narrowed his eyes, “We must find a Priest. Oh, right, Meng Yan can save her.”
He took out his phone again and quickly dialed Zhou Mengyan’s number.
“Meng Yan, where are you?”
“Lin Ling, I’m at Black Mountain Bottom Reservoir. We accidentally entered a maze here. It seems like it’s a water prison down here, and we can’t find our way out.”
“Send me the coordinates. I’ll come find you right now.”
Phantom quickly ascended and instantly disappeared into the distant sky.
Black Mountain Bottom Reservoir, Zhao Family Water Prison.
Deep within the colossal maze, dozens of prison cells were concealed.
At this moment, each cell held one or more figures captive.
Most of these individuals were relatives of Dragon Country military and political officials, while the rest were nephews and nieces from various major corporations.
They were all hostages captured by General Zhao through extreme means after his retirement, in order to maintain his power.
No one would have expected such a tightly secured water prison to exist in the wild mountains and desolate wilderness.
At this moment, Feng Zhi and his four companions were suspended in the water prison, their bodies already covered in wounds.
Several Five-turn Professionals constantly patrolled the water prison, occasionally lashing the people in the cells with a whip.
Outside the water prison, several figures who had stumbled in were cautiously making their way deeper into the maze.
“Mengyan Jie, what exactly is this place? We’re not going to trigger some hidden quest, are we? There’s no water prison on the map,” Youyou asked softly.
“I don’t know either. In any case, this is definitely not a monster zone given by the Divine Realm System. I think this place is like a prison set up by some hidden force.”
Zhou Mengyan shook her head, saying she had never heard of such a place.
“Let’s leave this place. What if some big villain appears? The five of us might not be able to handle it.”
“Exactly, this place gives me a very bad feeling, as if something is about to happen.”
“My sixth sense is always accurate. I have a feeling that something will definitely happen here soon.”
Beside Zhou Mengyan, her three teammates were already filled with panic.
The deeper they went, the more a chilling aura enveloped them.
None of them noticed a detection laser flashing faint red lights beneath their feet.
Beep, beep, beep…
Suddenly, a piercing alarm blared from deep within the maze.
