Go Ahead If You Can!
Chapter 10
[The Special Investigation Department will arrive in ten seconds. Host, please hurry up. Countdown to mission failure: Six.]
— Why are you cosplaying King of Glory at this time?!
Zhu Yilong was going crazy, and his face became colder and colder.
[Five.]
— Or should I summon the Soul Cutter and kill this guy?
[Four.]
— Forget it. Killing someone is harder than jumping off a building, and the mission will definitely fail.
[Three.]
— Between the punishment for mission failure and the ending of jumping off a building, which is more serious?
[Two.]
— Ah!
So be it!
At most, I'll just rely on the Resurrection Capsule!
[One.]
Zhu Yilong suddenly moved. He pushed Li Qian back and faced the Shadow Man head-on. His shoulder was hit by the Shadow Man's claw, and he fell down the building!
It was terrible to be suddenly suspended in the air. For a moment, Zhu Yilong's mind went blank, and he instinctively pressed down with his hands. A surge of black energy suddenly erupted from his palms and wrapped his whole body in it.
The feeling of weightlessness disappeared in an instant, and it was replaced by the feeling of releasing all the energy. Zhu Yilong landed on the ground lightly. He felt as if his face and body were covered with a layer of armor. The familiar feeling made him raise his hands subconsciously, and the first thing he saw was a wide black sleeve.
"Is this … the Black-Robed Messenger's robe?"
Zhu Yilong reached out to touch his face, and sure enough, he touched the familiar mask. He stood in the bushes downstairs and took a deep breath. He felt a sense of relief after surviving a disaster.
At least, he didn't fall to his death.
However, jumping down was not the end. It was just the beginning, and there was not much time left. Although the System's countdown had ended, if he couldn't get to the roof on time and make a flashy appearance, the mission was still likely to fail.
He still couldn't control the strange energy in his body, but after the explosion just now, Zhu Yilong had vaguely found the way to use it.
He tried to close his eyes and set a target for himself that was not far away. He silently said "teleport", and when he opened his eyes again, he was already at the target location.
"Success!"
It was a good thing that he could teleport. At least it would allow him to complete the plot smoothly.
As for a skill like Time Freeze, which was purely used to increase his Coolness, he no longer insisted on it.
It was about time. Zhu Yilong looked up at the rooftop and clenched his fists nervously. He took a deep breath and tried to teleport himself to the rooftop with his mind. At the same time, he summoned the Soul Slashing Saber. He tapped the saber gently on the ground and made his grand entrance!
His appearance was too silent. There was no sudden stop in time, and there were no dark clouds. The big scene in the play was completely ordinary.
Fortunately, the Black-Robed Envoy had his own deterrence. Chu Shuzhi respectfully lowered his head the moment he saw him. The other people were also flustered and nervous. None of them dared to look him in the eye.
Only Guo Changcheng, who did not know who the Black-Robed Messenger was, was confused. He looked at his colleagues and then at him. He opened his mouth to ask —
"Oh, the Black-Robed Envoy has graced us with your presence. Excuse me for not going out to meet you!"
Just a second before Guo Changcheng opened his mouth, Bai Yu quickly slapped him on the back of his head and forced him to swallow the words he was about to say. Then, he walked forward and said something with an exaggerated expression. Since no one could see him from this angle, he quietly winked at Zhu Yilong. Then, he gestured to the shadow man, who was struggling to get up after being knocked down by Chu Shuzhi.
Zhu Yilong knew what he meant by this hint. According to the scene in the play, he should have frozen the shadow man the moment he appeared.
However, the problem was that he had not mastered this skill at all. Not to mention freezing the shadow man, it was also a problem for him to open the passage and take the shadow man away.
Seeing that the shadow man was about to turn around and run away after getting up, Zhu Yilong was quick-witted. He raised his hand and shot a ball of black energy at the shadow man's back.
The shadow man's figure swayed and then fell to the ground. It was unknown whether he was dead or alive.
Zhu Yilong: "…"
Bai Yu: "…"
— — What the hell???
Did he beat someone to death?!
Seeing this, Bai Yu hurriedly went forward to check and found that the shadow man had only been knocked unconscious. He could not help but give Zhu Yilong a thumbs up. "Lord Black Robe Messenger's control of energy is really admirable!"
Zhu Yilong was originally nervous, but when he heard this, he immediately relaxed. Fortunately, he did not accidentally kill the shadow man. Otherwise …
His hand, which was hidden under his wide sleeve, was trembling slightly. Fortunately, his other hand was holding the Soul Cutter tightly, and he could still pretend to be calm with the help of the Soul Cutter.
Zhu Yilong quietly sighed and returned to his acting state. He began to act with Zhao Yunlan.
This scene mainly showed the first meeting between Zhao Yunlan and the Black Robe Messenger. One seemed cold and emotionless, while the other sounded unhappy and probing.
The two of them had a good grasp of the tone and emotions, but the direction of the plot was …
"This person will be handed over to the Special Investigation Department for the time being. After the trial, I will bring people to the Earth King's Palace."
As Zhu Yilong spoke, he glanced at the unconscious shadow man lying on the ground and nodded slightly to Bai Yu. "I still have important matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave first. Goodbye."
"Hey …" This plot is not going in the right direction!
Bai Yu keenly sensed that something was wrong with Zhu Yilong, but this was obviously not the time to ask. He quickly swallowed the words he wanted to ask and nodded to the shadow man. The latter looked away and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
It was a strange feeling to see a familiar person disappear in front of him.
Bai Yu touched his nose and turned to Chu Shuzhi. "What are you looking at?
Tie him up and bring him back to the Special Investigation Department! "
Chu Shuzhi also sensed that something was not right. He looked at the place where the Black Robe Messenger had disappeared and frowned. "Why did Lord Black Robe Messenger leave this guy behind?
Doesn't the Special Investigation Department only have the right to arrest and not to judge? "
"How can ordinary people like us understand what your master is trying to do?"
Bai Yu retorted absent-mindedly. He turned to look at Li Qian, who was scared out of his wits, and waved his hand.
"Classmate, where's your Professor Shen?"
Li Qian suddenly came back to her senses and remembered what had just happened. She immediately exclaimed, "Professor Shen!" Then, she hurriedly leaned against the wall of the roof and looked down.
Bai Yu's heart skipped a beat. He also ran over to take a look. He saw a dark blue figure lying in the grass below, struggling to get up.
His pupils suddenly shrank, and his heart rate instantly accelerated. An inexplicable panic climbed up from the bottom of his heart, tightening and contracting his heart like a vine.
Bai Yu blinked rapidly, and his lips unconsciously opened and closed twice. Then, without saying a word, he turned around and ran to the rooftop door.
When he went down the stairs, Bai Yu used the strength he had when he was acting as Han Chen. He pressed on the railing of the stairs and jumped from the sixth floor to the first floor in a few steps.
Fortunately, his current body was much stronger than his original one, so he was able to slide down easily.
When he ran out of the building, he saw a few passing students helping Zhu Yilong out of the greenery. The man's clothes were a little messy, and he even smiled and waved at him.
"L... Professor Shen, are you okay?"
Bai Yu took a deep breath. His footsteps were a little erratic as he walked over, and he almost called out the wrong name when he opened his mouth.
"Oh, I'm fine."
Zhu Yilong smiled. Teleportation was something that was new to him the first time around. At this moment, he no longer had the uneasiness he had when he was forced to jump off the building. He even felt a little refreshed after successfully completing the storyline.
Compared to him, Bai Yu's expression was not very good.
He walked up to Zhu Yilong and helped him up from the other side. He ignored his doubtful gaze and said, "How can you be fine after falling from such a high place?
I'll take you to the hospital. "
"But..." Zhu Yilong felt that Bai Yu's actions were a little uncharacteristic. He was worried that he would be OOC, so he tried his best to salvage the plot. "But upstairs —"
"It's already been resolved. Don't worry."
Bai Yu's tone was a little strange. Zhu Yilong couldn't help but turn to look at him. He found that although Bai Yu's expression was normal, there was a hint of coldness in his eyes. He couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
Li Qian and the others rushed down one after another. When they saw Bai Yu supporting Zhu Yilong, Li Qian's eyes instantly turned red. "Professor Shen..."
"I'm fine. Don't worry."
Zhu Yilong hurriedly comforted her. Bai Yu also waved at her. "Don't worry. I'll take care of Professor Shen. You've also been frightened. Go back and rest!
Hey, Xiao Guo, I'll leave the girl to you. Take good care of her. Daqing, Lin Jing, Lao Chu, take that guy back to the Special Investigation Department first. Be careful not to let him escape! "
He spoke very quickly and arranged everyone's tasks in a few words. Then, he supported Zhu Yilong and slowly walked in the direction of the school gate.
Zhu Yilong looked at him again and frowned slightly. Bai Yu's actions were completely out of line with the plot. However, since the system didn't prompt him, he didn't deliberately refuse.
Moreover, Bai Yu's mood was obviously not right. There were too many people around, so he didn't want to expose his feelings. It was better to find a quiet place and ask him what was wrong.
With this in mind, Zhu Yilong softened his voice and reminded him, "Director Zhao, I want to go back to the dormitory to change my clothes. You see..."
Bai Yu stopped in his tracks when he heard this. He looked up and identified the direction. Then, he turned and supported Zhu Yilong as they walked toward the staff dormitory.
This reaction — really didn't seem right.
Zhu Yilong unconsciously frowned and thought about what had just happened. Did the system make things difficult for him again?
The staff dormitory wasn't far from here, so it didn't take long for them to arrive. When they entered, Bai Yu asked for the dormitory number. After getting an exact answer, he helped Zhu Yilong all the way up the stairs.
Zhu Yilong felt uncomfortable being supported by Bai Yu like this. When he saw that there was no one around, he tried to pull his arm away. "I'm fine. Let me go, okay?"
"What do you mean you're fine!" Bai Yu glared at him in a rough voice. "Do you dare say that your shoulder isn't injured?"
Zhu Yilong was stunned when he heard this. He really couldn't say that. His shoulder was still burning with pain.
However, this body's self-healing ability was very good, and the pain wasn't as bad as when he was on set, so he didn't pay much attention to it. Unexpectedly, Bai Yu still noticed it.
