Chapter 78: A Ruthless Mercenary Falls in Love with Me
"Your dad is dead."
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
"Woo woo woo woo!"
"What did I just say? Tap! Qiu Xuan hurriedly covered An Zixuan's mouth and said with a headache.
"Woo Daddy...... Woowoowoo......"
Broken cries leaked out from Qiu Xuan's fingers, and she hurriedly coaxed the child to pay attention to whether anyone passed by, only to feel exhausted.
At this moment, several mechanical and somewhat distorted voices came from the communicator in the distance. "A black man ran away,...... Yes, we are on the ground floor...... Send more people, she has weapons. β
"Don't cry yet, hold back for a while, and cry later." Qiu Xuan said quickly and in a low voice, while holding her breath, she hugged the child tightly and hid it inside.
A neat step sounded, and she heard a male voice saying "Split searches", and then the footsteps dispersed, and one of them went straight to the shelf where she was hiding.
Qiu Xuan roughly estimated the location and counted the steps in her heart.
It's close, and there are two more steps!
Suddenly, the footsteps stopped. There was a soft sound from the shelf collision.
"What's going on?" The man who looked like the leader of the group shouted, "Who is in charge of Area B?" β
"It's me, it's okay, I didn't pay attention to touch it just now." The soldier replied.
"Watch out next time! Search them all for me, and if you let people go, none of the people present will have good fruit to eat! β
As if sensing something again, the man's voice faded away. Soon, there were only three people left behind the shelves in this row.
"It's okay, let me go." The soldier stiffened and was pressed against the shelf from behind, and a short knife that looked so sharp hovered over the skin around his neck.
A cold hand gripped his wrist, and the soldier felt a tingling pain, and the skin above his wrist suddenly began to make a sound similar to that of burnt flesh. Immediately after, a dark and strange totemic pattern slowly extended along the inside of his forearm until it was submerged in the sleeve of his coat.
"You, what did you do to me?!"
"It's just a little trick to make sure you're obedient." Qiu Xuan said casually. In fact, even she herself didn't know what it was. It is known that touching corpses with this ability spreads the plague, but touching a living person will form such a totem on their arm. The exact role and connection of the totem is unknown, and the only thing that is certain is that the totem appears to have only been formed on the arms of black people.
However, the black soldier did not know Qiu Xuan's bastard ability, and he stared at the black mark on his arm, the ominous pattern and color only reminded him of the black mage he had only seen in the history books. And once he is targeted by the curse of the black mage, the rest of that person's life can be regarded as a miserable life.
"Law...... Master Mage, please let me go, I'm also forced and I won't say it! β
The soldier trembled like chaff, Qiu Xuan held the only remaining main knife, and raised his eyebrows in place.
"As long as you do a good job for me, I won't embarrass you."
"I'm willing to do anything! Are we going to collect other people's souls to brew calamity, you can use me, and I will be your most loyal and evil servant in the future! β
"That's good." Qiu Xuan held the knife in one hand, and with the other hand, she tore open the hand of the child who was firmly attached to her with lightning speed, and then neatly stuffed it into the soldier's arms. "You help me take the baby."
Soldier:???
An Zixuan: "...... Woo woo sister woo woo. β
"Listen up." Qiu Xuan turned to the child first. "I'll have something inconvenient for you, so you can stay with this uncle first, and I'll tell you about your dad when I come back. As for you," she said, glancing at the soldier, "watch him before I return, and don't let him cry, or I'll make you cry worse than he does." β
Soldier: "...... Oh. β
"By the way, do you know where the inner door is?"
"This ...... I'm just a most ordinary low-ranking soldier, and I don't even have the qualifications to enter and leave the laboratory in normal times, but today I came in exceptionally. β
"Forget it, you just stay here and take care of him."
After explaining everything, Qiu Xuan was finally quite satisfied and put her mind at ease for the time being. She bent over and carefully weaved through the towering shelves, looking for a passage through the inner door.
The change happened in an instant, and at a corner, Qiu Xuan and a team of patrolling soldiers met each other head-on. She hurriedly took advantage of the crowd to shrink around the corner, but when she turned back, she reluctantly found that it was a dead end.
Ask, what is the solution to being cornered?
If it was placed in the past, Qiu Xuan's answer was to be tough, don't think about anything, and be reckless. But as soon as the short knife in her hand came out, she remembered almost immediately what the original owner of the knife had said when he handed it to her.
Protect yourself and don't use that garbage.
She paused for a second.
Qiu Xuan pursed her lips, and finally stopped the suicide attack that was already gaining momentum in her hand.
Amid the dense footsteps and the squad leader's whispered orders, several squads of patrol soldiers surrounded the periphery of the corner to prepare for the attack, to ensure that the escaped black man was captured alive as much as possible.
However, no one heard the noise buried in the mouth, and someone opened his mouth and whispered:
"Shen Luyan."
β¦β¦
On the other side, the man standing alone across from the army was covered in blood, and he couldn't tell whether the blood belonged to him or was stained by someone else. The mercenary group united with Shuying Hengxie and the others to fight with the soldiers of Chuanliu Town, and again, Ling You's metal whip slammed into the attacking soldier in front of her, and she took advantage of the gap to catch her breath with some effort.
"Damn, what the hell do you think the boss is thinking? It's hard to distinguish between truth and falsehood, no matter how you say it, you have to confirm it with Zhao Mingsi in person before fighting. It's not like this to please his ex-girlfriend, I didn't find out before, the boss is really a love brain? β
"Who said before that don't be blindly involved in other people's emotional lives?" First infected people, then Chuanliu Town, and after a series of continuous fights, Ander couldn't bear it. "You, you can have a snack, I think that little sister's perception is quite keen."
"Don't talk nonsense." found a gap, and Shuying also joined this "large-scale discussion on the love life before Qiu Xuan". "Qiu Xuan seems to be engaged, I accidentally saw the ring she has been carrying on her before."
"? So the boss cruelly abandoned his fiancΓ©e on the eve of the engagement and left in cold blood, but he couldn't escape the fate of chasing his wife in the crematorium. You, what I said before, I know! Ander was suddenly excited, and summoned a wind blade much more powerful than before, and shattered the head of a soldier in a single blow to show his excitement.
""The Ruthless Mercenary Falls in Love with Me: The 99 Escapes of the Spoiled Wife" must be played like this!"
"Please, shut up." Ling You couldn't stand it anymore and stood a little farther away.
"Just like the two of them, "The Personal Protector of the Strongest Demon Emperor in the City" is almost the same."
