Chapter 681 – Cao Yuan Escapes from the Trap
[Pure Land].
”Qingyu, the Oracle has left.”
Jiang’er, who was wearing an azure blue bathrobe, floated to An Qingyu’s side and sat down with a smile, her voice transmitted from the Bluetooth headset into An Qingyu’s ears.
”They couldn’t penetrate the ‘Automatic Defense System’, so of course they had to leave.” An Qingyu slowly placed her chess piece somewhere on the chessboard and smiled as she spoke, “It seems that in this game, it’s me who has won ……”
”In the future, this large flying saucer will be surnamed An.”
”Hm? Isn’t it surnamed Jiang?”
”Pretty much, anyway, those surnamed Jiang also listen to those surnamed An.”
Hearing these words, An Qingyu smiled gently.
A moment later, he stood up, patted the dust on his body, and walked in the direction of the prison area.
”Let’s go, first go to save Cao Thief, what I promised him …… I also did it.”
”Good.”
The two of them walked to the door of Cao Yuan’s cell, Jiang’er just waved his hand gently, and the heavy cell door opened automatically, the light from the corridor projected into the pitch-black cell, illuminating Cao Yuan’s face.
This sudden bright light made Cao Yuan a little uncomfortable, he squinted his eyes and looked at the door from the slit, seeing these two familiar figures, he let out a slight sigh of relief.
”So fast? Wasn’t it three days?”
”I always like to plan for the worst, three days is a conservative estimate.”
An Qingyu smiled as he walked into the cell, pulling out a black scalpel from his pocket, a flash of sharpness flashed across the tip of the blade as he squatted in front of those thick and heavy black chains, parsing their construction while cutting the chain body with the blade as if he was performing a precise major surgery.
”Did you really kill all the oracle ambassadors?” Cao Yuan still couldn’t help but ask.
”Kill them all? How could I be that capable.” An Qingyu shook her head, “I just stole their homes and turned them away again.”
Cao Yuan: ……
Cao Yuan gazed at An Qingyu for a moment, and a bitter smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
”After returning to Daxia, if you don’t become the vice-captain of our squad, I’ll be the first to say no. ……”
Hearing these words, Jiang’er on the side shook his head solemnly, his mouth opened and closed as if he said something, but Cao Yuan didn’t hear a single word.
”I forgot, you don’t have a Bluetooth headset.”
An Qingyu seemed to have remembered something, and pulled out a compact Bluetooth speaker from somewhere, placing it on the ground, and after the faint sound of electricity, Jiang’er’s voice came from it once again:
”I’m the first one to say no, you can only be the second in line.” Jiang Er looked at Cao Yuan’s eyes and said seriously.
Cao Yuan looked at the Bluetooth speaker on the ground and then at the Bluetooth headset hanging from An Qingyu’s ear, and his expression seemed somewhat subtle.
”This is all using a private channel? Whispering?”
”Usually there are only the two of us, it’s not very convenient if the sound is externalized in this kind of place, so it’s more appropriate to use Bluetooth headphones.” An Qingyu explained.
”Oh ……,” Cao Yuan’s expression remained subtle.
After all the etched bone locks were removed, Cao Yuan’s body lost its support and fell heavily from mid-air, An Qingyu stretched out her hands to catch him steadily and carried him out of the dark cell in a princess carry position.
This chain penetrated into Cao Yuan’s bones for two years and kept corroding his body, the current Cao Yuan couldn’t lift the slightest bit of strength in his body, although this action was rather shameful for him, it seemed like there was no choice ……
”The injuries on your bones and body are very serious, and when these chains pierced through your body, they scraped off some bone fragments and embedded them in your body, you need surgery to take them out.”
An Qingyu said as she placed him on the makeshift operating table that had been set up, her eyes sweeping over Cao Yuan’s body full of blood holes.
”Take it.” Cao Yuan spoke calmly, “I trust your level.”
”There’s no anesthetic here.”
”Don’t need that kind of thing.” Cao Yuan didn’t care, “In these two years, the pain I’ve suffered is much harder to endure than this.”
An Qingyu was silent for a few seconds and didn’t say anything, just quietly pulled out his scalpel kit and began to follow the process of sterilizing and then performing the surgery.
”Say, how did you get caught here?”
An Qingyu performed the surgery while talking, distracting Cao Yuan’s attention.
Cao Yuan looked at the light above his head, and even though the scalpel was already cutting through his flesh, his expression didn’t change in the slightest, and he calmly said:
”Back then, after I drifted up to this country, I remembered those foreign cultures I learned in the training camp before the mist descended, and guessed that this should be Japan, and even though I didn’t know why I had come here, I still began to hide my identity as an outsider, learning the language here little by little, and slowly figuring out the situation of this country, while also traveling around to look for your whereabouts.
I have been traveling around for about two months, in which I also met some special people, mastered some basic language, and also knew the structure and current situation of this country, [Pure Land], oracle envoys, Banezu sword ……
Until one day, I faced an Oracle Envoy straight on, he told me to kneel, I didn’t, and then we fought.”
An Qingyu raised an eyebrow, this plot, it was pretty much what he had imagined, “And then? After you drew your sword, didn’t you feel the gaze of that mysterious gaze?”
”Felt it ……,” Cao Yuan sighed helplessly, “But as you know, once I drew my sword and entered that state, it’s not something that can be retracted easily, so I felt that gaze getting stronger and stronger, and in the end, it completely locked onto me. me, and then I saw a pillar of red-colored light flash by, and I knew nothing else.”
”A pillar of red-colored light?”
”Well, when I regained consciousness again …… things were a bit strange.” Cao Yuan closed his eyes, recalling the images he saw at that time.
”At that time, I was in, a city called Hachimantai, and when I opened my eyes, I realized that the city had completely fallen into ruins.
As far as the eye could see, there were messy and dilapidated building wrecks everywhere, the air was filled with thick smoke and pungent blood, black fury flames were dancing in every corner of the city, at that time, there happened to be a blacked out half of an electronic screen above my head, on it hung my wanted notice, and on the top of my head, the two words ‘Extremely Evil’ were written.
In front of me, there were the corpses of two broken oracles lying in a charred black mass, as if they had just blown themselves up, and there were also three oracles that had been seriously injured and on the verge of death lying on the ground, and at that time, in front of me, there was only a black-robed and a white-robed oracle standing.
At that time, my body was pierced by chains, surrounded by densely packed prisons made up of black spikes, with a total of nine floors, and I was locked up inside without being able to move a muscle.
But I remember at that time those two oracle envoys looked at me like they were looking at some monster ……”
While Cao Yuan was speaking, An Qingyu’s expression gradually changed as he gazed at Cao Yuan suspiciously and
”[Extreme Evil]? The Oracle Envoy who blew himself up and was seriously injured? Are you sure you really don’t remember anything?”
