Netherworld Retrograde

Chapter 674: Chapter 316: Seeing the Mountain Lord Again

In fact, Doll didn’t really understand the methods the military strategists were discussing.

Especially unclear about what “getting hit by a stick” meant…

Could it be some powerful Spiritual Ability Equipment?

But she didn’t have any stick-type Spiritual Ability Equipment, and her A-grade Spiritual Ability Equipment was still being forged, change it to a stick?

And the weapon used by Xiao Ye is a long spear, right?

So what does “getting hit by a stick” mean? Doll felt puzzled and wanted to ask.

But in front of Li Yelai, Doll still felt a bit guilty and hid the Communicator behind her.

She couldn’t just ask the military strategist how to take him down in front of Li Yelai, right?

This made her delicately concealed face beneath her headgear flush slightly.

Especially when she saw the scar on Li Yelai’s lips, Doll’s face grew even hotter… Outsiders might think it was an accidental bump when the Champion Agent was eliminating an enemy. But she knew very well…

Li Yelai was unaware of this, but he also felt somewhat guilty.

Scenes of that sensuous moment kept popping into his mind.

Although, right now, Li Yelai wasn’t too clear about whether those scenes were real.

But when he saw Doll, he still felt a sense of guilt.

And Doll was still willing to see him, to bring him food…

I really should die…

Li Yelai took a deep breath, took the food box from Doll’s hands, and said, “Shall we find a place to eat?”

Although it was a bit sneaky, he wanted to confirm if Doll had any of those ‘marks’ on her.

Considering a beast who bullied a friend and a lowlife who had wet dreams.

He would rather be the latter.

However, this made Doll hesitate.

Naturally, she didn’t want to miss the chance to be alone with Li Yelai, Little Mad King and Li Yelai had been alone for so long, she was anxious and naturally wanted to make up for it.

But the ‘marks’ on her body had not yet disappeared.

If Li Yelai saw them, her actions at that time would probably be exposed.

Doll thought of the worst consequences…

She could even fantasize about seeing Cheese or Little Mad King showing her their victorious smiles.

No… can’t do that… slow down, you guys (;´д｀)ゞ

[I’m not hungry, and it’s so hot here, I feel like I’m melting (･´ω`･)(-ω-;)]

It was now the peak of July, and every time she went out, she had to wear her thick and bulky Doll suit. If not for her ability to maintain ventilation inside the Doll suit and her strong physical strength, she would probably have suffered heatstroke.

Li Yelai nodded, “Then let’s go home first.”

[Yeah, I’ll take you with me, it’ll be quick (
´-ω･)]

Li Yelai nodded with a smile, his vehicle was parked halfway and had been retrieved by the logistics team.

If he didn’t use the Shadow Army, even Aerial Stepping home would take him a while.

Meanwhile, not far away in the quarantine area, Zi Tong was observing the two people preparing to leave.

This prompted a teammate from the South City Branch to jibe, “You’ve only met the Night General Captain once, and you’ve only exchanged a couple of sentences. Don’t tell me, you’ve fallen for him? Although, he is indeed handsome…”

“You’re thinking too much, I’m not so foolishly smitten. He only spoke eight words to me. ‘Hello, Comrade Zi Tong’ and ‘Thank You’.” Zi Tong retorted, “Just curious is all.”

With that, Zi Tong pointed to the Doll panda not far away, “That must be the Toy Captain, right? She really wears her Doll suit every time she appears. In this blazing heat, that’s quite tough.”

“Yep, the last time I saw her she was in a frog Doll suit,” a teammate from the South City Branch responded, “And it looks like she has a close relationship with the Night General Captain.”

“Heh, too close, if you ask me,” Zi Tong said with a gossiping smile.

As a Spiritual Eyes Path Spiritual Ability User with special abilities, her eyes could see a lot of details.

Not only could she see the visualization of viruses, as well as those more malicious and strange things, but she could also discern the causes of some wounds.

And the wound on the Night General Captain’s lips, hehehe… played pretty wild.

If it hadn’t been for the crowd just now, Zi Tong would surely have teased him.

‘Night General Captain, you wouldn’t want anyone to know about the wound on your lips, would you?’

She really wanted to see the Night General Captain’s embarrassed face, but… there was a faint sense of crisis that made her give up on such a joke.

“The Toy Captain and Night General, after the parade, should both be heading to the Immortal Palace. When the time comes, I’ll need their support, be careful in all matters. Survival first,” her teammate reminded.

Zi Tong’s Spiritual Eye Ability was quite special, so even though her Spiritual Power Strength wasn’t high, she had become one of the Explorers for this Immortal Palace expedition.

The fighting aspects were naturally left to the various captains and Elite Night Patrol, and for exploration, hmph, let them witness the true value of the Purple Golden Divine Eyes!

“Okay,” Zi Tong nodded, then suddenly widened her eyes in astonishment, exclaiming, “Damn!”

On the other side, Doll reached out to grasp Li Yelai’s arm, and the air around them twisted.

The next second, like stones launched from a slingshot, the two shot up into the air and rushed into the distance.

This left Zi Tong watching the scene in utter astonishment.

In fact, this was Doll’s ability.

As a Spiritual Ability User on the Divine Protection Path, she could manipulate some entities using the path’s unique Spiritual Power Threads.

This was also the reason why the Divine Protection Path is jokingly referred to as Sword Immortal.

Even without using her abilities, she could control objects with just her Spiritual Power alone.

Of course, the power wasn’t as great.

Such as Sword Madman, who manipulates metal. So, his flying sword can even slice through the air with a sonic boom.

Such as Jing Jing, who manipulates molten lava. She can melt rock and reshape it into weapons and can also directly alter the terrain.

Such as the fawning Gretwin, who manipulates thorns. He can make thorns grow rapidly, turning them into weapons and defenses.
