Seeing this, the timidity and fear in her heart once again prevailed, and this mental activity, which was extremely incompatible with her personality, forced her to curl up between the branches and leaves, rather than bravely stand up and fight it.

In the next second, the Night Emperor roared, clenched the giant hammer, and slammed it into the thick trunk.

In an instant, she only felt that the world was spinning, and then her hands and feet fell into a state of extreme numbness, but fortunately, the desire to survive supported her, and she hugged the trunk of the tree not far away, so as not to fall from the tree.

Before she could catch her breath, the tree shook violently again, and at the same time, the fine cracks gradually spread from the middle of the tree to the surroundings, and she could even feel that the tree began to tilt after the violent shaking, and perhaps in a few minutes, it would fall.

"No, we have to find a way to get out of here." She whispered as she glanced around, hoping that there would be a suitable place to launch a grappling hook.

Finally, at the moment when the tree was about to fall, she saw a thick enough oak tree at 12 o'clock, so she immediately fired the grappling hook and pressed the boost button as her body lost its center of gravity.

The powerful air vortexes inside the grappling hook gun sent her into the air in an instant, but this time, she lost her balance due to confusion and numbness in her hands and feet.

Seeing this, her heart instantly became nervous, knowing that what was waiting for her next was either to fall to death or become food in the mouth of the Night Emperor.

"Sizzle......" Her back slammed against the trunk of the tree, and then a sharp pain quickly struck her body, whether it was a scrape of flesh or a comminuted fracture.

Of course, the former and the latter didn't seem to matter to her, and even if she didn't break her bones this time, who could guarantee that she would fall to the ground unharmed?

Luckily for her, however, she felt herself slammed into a soft, fishy mat with a slight dizziness, and then tumbled into a nearby body of water.

"Waters?" When she opened her hazy eyes, she found that the water here was unusually clear, which was not only reflected in the extreme transparency of the water, but also in the small silver fish and shrimp that swam in the water from time to time.

For a moment, she fell into a deep confusion, although she had not carefully observed the situation around her just now, she could be sure that she had never seen such a water with excellent water quality, and the soft mat that had saved her life.

"Did they appear out of nowhere?" Gu Yuexi surfaced while thinking about it, wanting to see if she had missed something.

She didn't know that when she looked at it, the question in her heart not only did not get a more reasonable explanation, but it aggravated a few points again.

It turned out that in just a few minutes, the scene in front of me had completely changed, that is, from a lush tropical rainforest to a desert full of yellow sand.

However, there is one thing that does not change, and that is a slightly cooler, drier climate.

Looking at this vast and boundless desert in a daze, such a guess suddenly popped up in her mind, that is: whether it is an ancient city on the water or a white sandy beach; Whether it's a dense rainforest or a vast desert, they all belong to a secret space, a hidden space parallel to the larger world that needs to be opened by special means.

However, what is the specific method of opening it? And, what is the relationship with the fragments of the Snow Mountain Scroll?

On the other hand, what made Li Boling extremely happy was that his right-hand man Zhao Chenghui did not sacrifice in the process of rescuing the hostages, but fell into the hands of Li Sufang, and in order to show her sincerity, she did not make any excessive demands, but released him unconditionally.

"It seems that this cooperation, Mr. Li is really full of sincerity." Li Boling wrote his name on the letter of commitment and said with satisfaction.

"Sincerity doesn't count, we just take what we need." Li Sufang ordered Liu Jinyang and Araujo to set off first, while she lagged behind, chatting with Li Boling with each other.

"Mr. Li, I have a question for you, who gave you so much courage to give you the idea of breaking away from the Southern Association and establishing your own door?" Seeing that it would take some time to reach the city of Patna, Li Boling asked the question he had always wanted to know.

"Oh?" Li Sufang was slightly stunned for a moment, and said casually: "The value of the existence of intelligence agencies lies in obtaining intelligence and trading intelligence, so whether you belong to a certain organization or work alone, you only need to have a group of capable cadres and an intelligence network that continues to generate value, which is enough." ”

"There are many mysteries hidden in Mr. Li's words." Li Boling suddenly raised his head, looked at the vast night sky, and then smiled faintly.

"It's great that Director Li can figure it out." Li Sufang raised her head and happened to see a young man with short black hair walking briskly towards here, thinking that it must be Araujo.

Seeing his slightly anxious appearance, Li Sufang secretly said that it was not good, so she walked up to him, motioned for him to take a breath, and said slowly.

"Your Excellency, the Southern Association sent someone to secretly attack our joint in the city and shot more than a dozen of my brothers." Araujo whispered, clenching his fists, intent on avenging his dead companion.

"Calm down, since the Southern Association dares to use guns in the city, they must have come prepared, if we attack rashly, the result may backfire." The anger in Li Sufang's heart was as good as his, but she knew that if she wanted to defeat the Southern Association, it was absolutely impossible to use force alone, and she must know how to forbear and pay attention to strategy.

"Then my lord, we ...... now," Araujo asked, realizing that his idea was too simplistic, and lowered his head.

"Go as planned." Li Sufang didn't say anything, but left behind such an extremely simple sentence.

By the time they entered Patna, it was already 3 a.m. on April 19.

In the past, the city should have been quiet and dark at this time, but due to the gunfights that broke out in the military camp and the city, the city now seems to be more lively, of course, this kind of excitement is not the excitement of Independence Day, Eid al-Fitr, Holi and other festivals, but a kind of panic in the face of unknown dangers.

"Jinyang, where are the survivors of the shootout at the moment? What is the situation? Li Sufang glanced at the heavily armed soldiers who walked by from time to time, and said with a little worry.

"Don't worry, Sister Fang, I have been safely escorted to the temporary settlement outside the city, and according to them, the top-secret information of our organization has not been leaked, and those rumors outside are just a means for the Southern Association to break the hearts of our army." Liu Jinyang put a temporary record document in Li Sufang's hand and reported.

"Okay, that's a hard time for you." Hearing that Songxintang's intelligence network in the Patna area had not been completely destroyed, the sorrow on Li Sufang's face only decreased a little, and then she pointed to a small restaurant with lights on in the distance, and said slowly: "Master Li, we have arrived at the place. ”

Seeing this, Li Boling couldn't help but be taken aback, anyway, he really couldn't imagine that a nation from another world would live in such a humble place.
