The sky darkened completely, and Jiang Li breathed a sigh of relief as he looked at the metal giant wall not far away.
It's a good thing that he has a good sense of direction. There's no signal outside the safe zone, so everything has to rely on the map and his own judgment.
Many people with strong abilities ended up dying outside the safe zone, and he couldn't help but feel a connection to this.
The metal gate slowly opened, and the moment Jiang Li entered, he felt like a primitive man transmigrated into modern society.
After nearly four days of wilderness life, covered in dust and with hair in a mess, it's time to go home and rest.
As Jiang Li thought about this, he took out his phone. Although he had told his sister that he might be out of contact for a few days, he still wanted to let her know he was safe.
Upon opening the phone, numerous new messages kept coming in. There were messages from Zhang Hai, his sister, and even Lin Yeyu, who had participated in the test together before.
After letting his sister and Zhang Hai know he was safe, Jiang Li opened the conversation with Lin Yeyu.
"Save me."
Jiang Li was stunned, looking at the plea for help and a series of location information in the chat record, subconsciously thinking it was a joke.
How could someone ask for help from someone they barely knew?
The time shown in the chat record was three days ago in the evening.
Wasn't that the day they first met? Did something happen right after they parted ways?
Just as Jiang Li was about to reply, "What's wrong, are you okay?"
A mechanical female voice echoed in his mind.
[Ding! An emergency mission is now available. Rescue the Star Spirit Body Lin Yeyu within 3 hours! Mission reward: Frost Sword]
!!!
As Jiang Li processed the information he heard, since the system had issued the mission, it meant that Lin Yeyu was really in trouble!
But this also meant that the other party was still alive, although the situation was extremely critical.
Why would someone pin their hopes on a guy they had just met for the first time? Didn't that girl have any other friends?
Jiang Li recalled the delicate features and petite figure of the girl, thinking about her appearance of social anxiety.
That girl... might really have no other friends.
Three hours for the mission, no time to waste!
With this in mind, Jiang Li quickly called a taxi using his phone, setting the destination to the location Lin Yeyu had sent, a place far from where Jiang Li was.
Even taking a taxi would take over an hour!
"Driver, please hurry. I'm in a rush. I'll pay double the fare!"
"Alright!" Upon hearing about the double fare, the driver rolled up his sleeves, determined to show this young man the skills of the once-renowned Winter Mountain Car God.
Stepping on the gas, the taxi raced through the night sky of Jianghua City, sparking and lightning flashing all the way.
...
Below Jianghua City, in the warehouse of the Floret Apartment.
A weak figure lay limp in the warehouse, with disheveled hair and numerous shocking wounds all over the body.
This body belonged to Lin Yeyu!
At this moment, she was as weak as a wisp of smoke, and her body was next to the large hat that had fallen off.
The defeated moonlight shone through the window, casting a unique beauty on her delicate yet scarred cheeks.
Lin Yeyu stared blankly at the moon outside.
Am I going to die?
Well, that would be a relief.
Ever since her mother left this home, her father had completely changed, as if he had become a different person.
He stopped working, drank day and night, and would hit and scold her whenever he was in a bad mood.
She had had enough of such days...
But
But she had finally awakened her supernatural talent.
She had finally become a mercenary and had her own job.
She had finally met someone in her life whom she wanted to rely on.
And it had to be at this time.
Tears rolled down Lin Yeyu's cheeks, leaving two faint tear marks.
Thinking of the man whom she felt familiar with despite meeting him for the first time, the man she wanted to rely on.
Lin Yeyu's exhausted body seemed to regain a bit of strength.
She struggled to get up and leave the warehouse, but failed time and time again.
Would that man come here to save her?
Would he take the risk for a girl he had only met once?
She longed to see that figure, yet feared his arrival.
Please don't come.
Lin Yeyu silently prayed.
Because this is a
"Trap"
...
"You seem to... need my help?"
!!!
The voice that had haunted her for several days suddenly appeared at the warehouse door.
Lin Yeyu made a great effort to turn her head to look.
There stood a figure in disarray.
With messy hair, a dirty face, and covered in dirt, he looked nothing like the clean and tidy memory, but this was the person!
He had really come for her!
"Don't come."
Lin Yeyu shouted with all her strength.
"I'm not the one who sent the message."
"It's a trap, you need to escape!"
As the words fell, another slightly hoarse voice came from a distance.
"Is this my dear daughter's first friend?"
Looking in the direction of the voice, under the moonlight, there was a man around 40 with a scruffy beard, exuding a strong smell of alcohol, staggering towards the warehouse.
The man was wearing old jeans and a jacket, which looked like they hadn't been washed for a long time judging from the stains on them.
Yet it was this man who exuded a more dangerous aura than the Level 1 Transcendent beast Jiang Li had encountered before.
It was the aura possessed only by someone who had reached Transcendent 5, a power far beyond that of a Transcendent person!
The man's steps were casual, showing no regard for the young man who looked only sixteen or seventeen in front of him.
This was the confidence of a superior, the confidence of a strong person.
He walked up to Jiang Li, and his calm eyes suddenly turned ferocious. With the surge of his blood and energy, his muscles, as hard as steel, effortlessly tore through the fabric of his sleeve.
Under the surging red energy, the man's hair stood on end, fluttering in the wind like an unbeatable war god.
"Die for me!"
With a roar, the man's fist, the size of a pot, fell with the force of a thousand catties, as if to shatter Jiang Li into pieces without mercy.
"No!"
Lin Yeyu closed her eyes, unable to witness what was about to happen, unable to see Jiang Li's demise.
Time passed slowly.
The expected screams and thunder did not occur, and there was an eerie silence.
Lin Yeyu opened her eyes again, seeing a scene she could not comprehend.
Jiang Li had effortlessly blocked the man's fist with his left hand, no matter how hard the man tried, he couldn't make any progress!
Jiang Li's calm eyes stared at the crazy man in front of him, and he said in a plain voice:
"Don't underestimate me, old man."
