Chapter 126: Yui's thoughts
At the northern end of the underground complex, only a few hundred meters away from the interrogation room that Ye Yuxuan and the others had been looking for, Uesugi Yui was squatting behind the circular masonry fence on the top of the tower, looking into the distance, waiting for some new movement from the communication channel.
Listening to the silent voice channel, she couldn't help frowning: "Still no news?" This guy ...... "It's been a long time since Su Mu suddenly dropped from the communication network. It was so long that she even thought that Su Mu had "hung up" for a while, so she specially asked Ye Zi to confirm the situation. However, as soon as she asked, Ye Yuxuan immediately denied her conjecture - as the captain, he could confirm that Su Mu was still alive, and even if he couldn't, he was full of confidence in his friend's skills, believing that he had only temporarily lost contact.
"That kind of guy, is it that trustworthy?" Yui recalled the relaxed and trusting tone on his lips when he discussed this with Hako; remembered the face when Su Mu "blackmailed" herself, and suddenly felt a little indignant, although she was no longer resentful of Su Mu's original behavior, she was still a little dissatisfied, and she had always had a lot of complaints about Su Mu's character; Ye Yuxuan is also a little dissatisfied with making friends with such a person, as well as some other "incompetent behaviors" that do not conform to the actions of a captain, which is also one of the reasons why she has been reluctant to get too close to each other despite walking with the two during this period of time.
Besides, she originally planned to complete this mission, so she parted ways with these two strange guys, so it was naturally better to keep a little sense of distance, after all, she herself was forced into this team by Su Mu's guy and kidnapped, could it be that she sold herself and helped count the money?
As soon as she thought of this, Yui felt more and more angry the more she thought about it, so she didn't want to do it at all, and silently looked into the distance and continued to wait.
The wizard's tower, if not to mention its height, was guaranteed to be not much lower than the one in the center of the complex, and from here it offered a panoramic view of the entire underground complex—most of the ordinary bungalows were closed with their doors and windows closed, and the servants cowered and hid in their small shelters, waiting for the unprecedented turmoil to subside.
The only things that remained active in the streets were the guards and hounds patrolling and running around, as well as the mentally retarded but useful Shadow Servants.
As far as the eye can see, the total number of guards patrolling the courtyards of the mansions of the major wizards has decreased by seventy percent, and most of them have already taken to the streets to look for the intruders.
The small number of people who could not leave were mostly those who needed to stand on the same page at all times, and they were much higher in terms of responsibility and status than their colleagues who left to search, including the personal guards of the various "landowners". They obviously wouldn't be patrolling the courtyard at the top and bottom of the wizard's tower, so the usually heavily guarded wizard's mansion was now a good hiding place.
However, even so, there are still risks, such as being discovered by the wizard himself who stayed in the mansion, but Uesugi Yui has been here for a long time, and it is basically certain that the guy who lives here is not a good detective.
In fact, the situation is really not much different from Yui's conjecture, the "adult" who lives here happens to be the most unlearned and unskilled of all wizards, but he likes to bluff, so he built such a wizard tower that he himself has never used at all, to show off in front of his servants and men, however, this is only to pretend and comfort himself in front of the servants, and his accomplices know how many pounds and taels he has.
During this long waiting time, Yui Uesugi had the idea of sneaking in and attacking the wizard who was resting in the room more than once, but she rejected it herself. This doesn't even need to ask Ye Zi, just think about it, you can understand: this will inevitably disrupt Ye Yuxuan's plan that he has so hard to implement, expose the target in advance, and increase the probability of mission failure. Besides, to deal with a wizard with unknown abilities on his own, even if he is the best among the new students, Yui, he is not conceited to that extent. After all, being straight doesn't mean having no brains, right?
When people are bored, they always feel that time flies slowly, and even though they have only waited here for less than ten minutes, it seems to Yui Uesugi that she has been like this for a whole day.
Just when she was about to wait a little upset, Su Mu, who had been talking about it, finally got news - to be precise, his signal finally reappeared in the channel, although the location was still being determined, but it meant that he had been reconnected, and it seemed that the stability was not bad.
"Su Mu, but TM has contacted you, what's the situation on your side? Why did you lose contact for so long? Without waiting for Yui to ask, Ye Yuxuan, who was a friend, had already taken the lead in sending his greetings (correct) and questions together. In this case, Yui Uesugi also saves trouble, so she simply listens silently.
Su Mu seemed to be stunned for a few seconds, and then responded in an almost roaring voice: "It's just terrible!" I've just come out of the ground, so can any of you give me a hand? I'm running out of the way here......"
Ye Yuxuan, who knew Su Mu best, immediately heard the solemnity in his tone, obviously not joking. He glanced at Sabina and two of his cronies in front of him, who were steadily rushing to the interrogation room, and replied, "I can't get out of my way for the time being, and it is likely that I will have to rely on the three people who are now tracking me to determine the location of the interrogation room." ”
Speaking of which, the location of the source of Su Mu's signal happened to be determined, and Uesugi Yui glanced at it, and after a little comparison with the map, she successfully determined the location where Su Mu was now, and it happened to be one of the places where the shadow minions gathered in large numbers.
After determining the target, with a burst of force under Yui's feet and the further amplification of the power of the exoskeleton power system on her body, the next second, she was already soaring into the air again, throwing herself from the top of the wizard's tower to the target like a cannonball.
“...... So what should I do? Su Mu repelled an oncoming shadow servant and asked Ye Yuxuan.
"Don't worry, Yui should have a way to help you ......"
Before Ye Yuxuan finished speaking, Yui Usugugi's cold voice that seemed to be emotionless sounded in the voice channel: "I've arrived." ”
