Chapter 303: The fog suddenly changed and the murderous intention
As soon as the man in the iron tower finished speaking, the snake demon woman's captivating eyes narrowed slightly, and her red lips parted slightly.
The words he uttered were somewhat nonchalant: "They were rescued? Tsk, it doesn't matter. They are just small fry anyway. The fun has just begun."
Her lazy tone was as if she was talking about today's weather, not taking it seriously at all.
The man in the iron tower frowned and said in a low voice, "Sir, do not underestimate the enemy. Lord Bell Crandall has instructed that this mission must be foolproof."
Upon hearing this, the snake demon woman chuckled softly, and her laughter was as sweet as a silver bell.
Yet, with a hint of disdain, he said, "Bell Crandall? Humph, he's just too cautious. They're just a bunch of little bugs, they can't cause any big waves."
"Sir," the man in the iron tower wanted to persuade him, but was interrupted by the snake demon woman who raised her hand.
She stretched out her slender fingers and gently stroked the emerald green flute in her hand.
His eyes gleamed with excitement: "This is just right. I don't have to search for them one by one. Why not catch them all at once? Isn't that better?"
The man in the iron tower hesitated a little: "Sir, are you sure you can handle it alone? The other party seems to be quite capable."
The snake demon girl raised her lips, revealing a confident smile. She glanced at the iron tower man with contempt.
Then he picked up a black box at his feet, weighed it twice in his hands, and said in a dull voice, "Do you think I would do something I'm not sure of?"
After saying that, the snake demon woman no longer paid attention to the man in the iron tower and walked directly into the depths of the fog. Her swaying figure was like a poisonous snake coming out of a cave, full of dangerous aura.
The man in the iron tower looked at the snake demon woman's departing back, hesitated for a moment, and finally sighed heavily.
He tightened the axe in his hand, with a look of determination in his eyes: "Well, forget it, since you are so confident, then I can only follow you. I can't let you get into trouble."
"After all... Lord Bell Crandall instructed us to protect her!"
The iron tower man followed the snake demon woman closely, muttering to himself, "This woman is really too confident."
"If this goes wrong, Lord Bell Crandall will have my skin peeled off!"
He held the huge axe tightly in his hand, and the axe handle was soaked with sweat.
In the fog, visibility was extremely low, and he could only vaguely see the snake demon woman's twisting waist, like a slippery poisonous snake, which made him feel creepy.
At the same time, the man wearing the Monkey King mask was hiding behind a towering old tree.
He whispered to the man wearing a Zhu Bajie mask beside him, "Old Pig, it seems those two guys are catching up with us. Let's proceed as planned and lure them into the trap!"
"Brother Monkey, don't worry! Don't you trust me, Old Pig, to do things for you? I guarantee they won't come back!"
The masked man with Zhu Bajie replied in a deep voice, his tone full of confidence.
The two men moved quickly away from the city center, their figures looming in the fog.
The man in the iron tower seemed to have noticed something and stopped suddenly.
He sniffed the air suspiciously. "Strange, why do I feel like there's someone nearby? Could it be support sent by Lord Bell Crandall?"
The snake demon woman glanced back at him impatiently: "You're dawdling like a woman! Hurry up and catch up, don't delay my good thing!"
The man from the iron tower didn't dare to say anything more and quickly followed.
The two continued to walk deeper into the fog, not knowing that they had stepped step by step into a preset trap.
"Brother Monkey, they seem to have taken the bait!" said the masked man with Zhu Bajie in a low voice.
"Well, don't be impatient, wait a little longer." The man in the Sun Wukong mask stared at the movement in the fog with a sharp gaze.
The man on the iron tower suddenly felt something flying over his head. He looked up and saw several bats circling in the air.
"Tsk, I thought they were some masters, but they turned out to be just a few little bats!" He became more certain of his guess and quickened his pace to catch up...
"My lord, wait for me!"
The tower man looked at the bats circling overhead and curled his lips in disdain: "I thought they were some powerful creatures, but they turned out to be just a bunch of little bats. What a waste of my feelings!"
"It seems that Lord Bell Crandall is a little paranoid. Hehe, now Lady Snake will definitely appreciate me even more!"
He thought happily in his heart, and his feet moved quickly, taking two steps at a time to catch up with the swaying snake demon woman in front of him.
At the same time, in a hidden corner not far away, Molly opened her big watery eyes wide.
Looking at this impromptu team made up of reserve players, his face was filled with disbelief: "No way? What kind of weird combination is this?"
"Hey Fatty, shouldn't you be counting steamed buns in the logistics department? Why are you here on the front lines?"
Baili Panger smiled and touched his round belly.
The fat on his face was all piled up. "Hey, little girl, you don't understand this, right? I'm responding to Captain Wu's call to become the 'all-around warrior' of the new era!"
"Besides, I can't see anything clearly in this fog. My size naturally makes me a great tank. Who can hurt me? Right, Brother Cao?"
Molly's gaze turned to the silent Cao Yuanhai.
A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes: "Huh? Isn't this the Cao Yuanhai who... the one who was moving supplies in the logistics department? He... he's here too?"
"Hey, Molly, long time no see, how are you? Captain Wu and Captain Lin are here, do you want to join us? Hehehehe!"
Baili Pang'er said with a wink.
After hearing this, Moli'er became even more confused: "Lin Qiye? Wu Hen? They are here too? Shouldn't they be..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Baili Pang'er.
"Shh, be quiet! Don't shout! This is a secret mission of our special team reserve! Hehehe!"
Baili Pang'er covered Molly's mouth, looked around, and only breathed a sigh of relief after making sure that no one noticed.
"So... then what are you doing?"
Molier pointed at the old tree where they had just hidden and asked. She hadn't forgotten that she had just seen Baili Pang'er and the others come out from there.
Fatty Baili once again showed his signature silly smile: "You'll know soon. Anyway, if you follow us, you won't suffer any loss!
"Hey, but then again, shouldn't you be with Captain Qin?"
"I...I came out to look for someone, and we got separated." Molly said dejectedly.
Suddenly, Molly seemed to have thought of something and raised her head sharply.
There was a hint of uneasiness in his eyes: "Wait, I remember...someone saw someone wearing a mask clearing out people from other teams...didn't you encounter them?"
Fatty Baili scratched his head and said awkwardly, "We did meet them... but they didn't seem to notice us."
"Speaking of which, we can't talk about this. If those masked men find out, we'll be in big trouble. They're really ruthless. Maybe not even a bone will be left. Who's going to pay for us then?"
"What if they come back and accuse us of disrupting public order? Wouldn't that be a huge loss for us?"
Molly looked at Baili Pang'er suspiciously, always feeling that the fat man's words were a bit unreliable.
A masked mop-up squad?
This sounds like some urban legend.
She was about to continue asking questions when she caught a glimpse of several people tied up under an ancient tree not far away. Their postures were strange and looked like some kind of performance art.
"Wait, what is that?"
Molly pointed at the tied person and asked. She noticed that the binding was extremely delicate, with each knot tied meticulously, even with a hint of...
Artistic sense?
Fatty Baili followed Moli'er's gaze and scratched his head in confusion. "Ah? Those? Those are the prisoners we captured. What happened?"
"Prisoners? You captured them? This binding method is... a bit peculiar."
Molly frowned. This binding technique looked like it was done by someone who was quite knowledgeable in rope arts...
Beautiful girl's hand?
Fatty Baili was even more confused. "Special? What's so special about it? Isn't it just an ordinary bondage? Is there something special about it?"
Molly was speechless. Wasn't this fat guy a fool?
She was too lazy to explain and just pulled Baili Pang'er towards the kidnapped person.
"Take me to see your captain."
Although Fatty Baili didn't understand why, he still obediently brought Molly to where Qin Kaier was.
Qin Kaier was lying on the ground with a pale face and weak breath, and the hideous wound on his chest was shocking.
"Captain Qin! How are you?" Molly exclaimed and rushed to Qin Kaier.
"Cough cough..."
Qin Kaier coughed weakly twice and opened his eyes with difficulty, "Molier... I'm glad you're okay..."
"It's such a long time and you're still talking about this!"
Molly looked at the others anxiously.
"Is there a doctor? Come and save him!"
Cao Yuanhai stepped forward to check Qin Kaier's injuries.
He shook his head solemnly, "The injury is too severe. He has lost too much blood and his internal organs are damaged. I'm afraid ordinary treatments won't work..."
At this moment, Jialan'er, who had been silent all the time, walked forward, with a faint golden light emitting from her hand, and gently pressed it on Qin Kaier's wound.
Miraculously, Qin Kaier's wounds began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his breathing gradually became stable.
"Is this... the power of [Immortality]?"
Cao Yuanhai looked at Jia Lan'er in surprise.
"I didn't expect you to awaken this ability. That's great!"
Jia Lan'er withdrew her hand, her face pale. "I only temporarily stabilized her injuries, I can't completely heal her, and..."
She paused and looked at Cao Yuanhai, "My [Immortal] power is almost exhausted..."
