Go Ahead If You Can!
Chapter 19
Bai Yu's first reaction was to open her mouth and ask what was going on. However, Zhu Yilong, who was prepared, covered her mouth and nose and whispered into her ear, "Shh!"
The two of them landed very cleverly, right behind a thick tree. Not far from them, there was a young girl tied to a tree by energy ropes. Her face was filled with fear, but she was completely speechless.
In front of her stood a man and a woman, who were commenting on her.
"Her face looks quite ordinary. Her eyes are too small, and her nose isn't sharp enough —" The woman standing on the left spoke. She reached out her hand and pinched the young girl's face, examining her carefully. There was a subtle hint of disdain in her voice.
The man hurriedly said, "If you don't like her, why don't we find someone else?"
The woman snorted and withdrew her hand. "Forget it. She's so-so. Just make do with her for now!
Peel her face off. "
"Okay."
As the man spoke, a ball of black energy appeared in his palm.
Seeing this, Bai Yu was about to rush out, but she was restrained by an invisible force. At the same time, the system's warning sounded in her ears.
[OOC Warning!
The host can't appear in front of a third party at this time. This behavior is illogical. Host, please be careful to conceal yourself. Otherwise, you will be punished by OOC!]
Zhu Yilong also heard this warning and patted Bai Yu's shoulder. Then, he suddenly transformed into a black-robed envoy and appeared in front of the two people. He sent the man who was about to skin the skin flying and raised his hand to release a ball of ice ability, completely freezing the man. Then, he raised his hand and pressed the Soul Cutter against the woman's neck.
The battle ended as soon as it started.
The Black-Robed Messenger's personal appearance was enough to scare the two Earthlings out of their wits. Moreover, Zhu Yilong intended to test the results of his recent training, so he used a big move. The two people didn't even have a chance to resist and were both captured.
After freezing the woman, Zhu Yilong turned and walked to the girl who was still tied to the tree. He waved his hand and cut off the energy rope on her body. Then, under her frightened gaze, he said gently, "You went out to play.
You encountered some evil people and fainted from fright. You didn't see who kidnapped you, and you didn't see who saved you. Now, you should sleep. "
Following his words, the frightened young girl's expression gradually calmed down. Her eyes blinked, and she finally fell asleep.
At this point, everyone except them had lost consciousness. The force that shackled Bai Yu also disappeared. He could finally move freely.
"Wow!
Brother Long, you're amazing! "
Realizing that he could finally move, Bai Yu walked out from behind the tree. After seeing the situation, he could not help but applaud Zhu Yilong.
The Skinned Woman, who had dragged on for so long in the drama, required all the members of the Special Investigation Department, and Zhu Hong to personally lure the monster, was defeated so easily. Their target, Lin Yu-sen, was not involved at all. It was really well done!
"But — it's settled just like that?
The system didn't judge it as OOC? "
He pointed at the two Earthlings who were completely frozen. He was a little surprised. "What about this little girl?"
Zhu Yilong looked around in the direction he was pointing at and said, "I'll send you back first, then send these two to the Earth King's palace. I'll tell you the rest when I get back."
He then looked at the unconscious girl next to him. "As for her, Lin Yu-sen is nearby and is rushing over. He will save her when the time comes."
According to the plot, Lin Yu-sen was nearby when the girl was captured.
That guy was worried when he saw the girl he liked go out late at night, so he secretly followed her. In the end, he witnessed her being captured.
He was also the one who found the body of this girl called Xiaoyan, which led to everything that happened after that.
Now that Xiaoyan was here, Lin Yu-sen must not be far away. He should be here soon.
As the two of them were talking, a figure was rushing over from afar, shouting something loudly.
Seeing this, Zhu Yilong made a prompt decision. He brought the two Earthlings and Bai Yu back to Zhao Yunlan's office in the Special Investigation Department. He then left again and brought the two Earthlings to the Earth King's palace.
Seeing the figure disappear, Bai Yu couldn't help but blink. She felt like she was playing the role of a mascot in this matter.
He stared in the direction where Zhu Yilong disappeared and habitually stretched out his thumb to scratch his lower lip. He frowned slightly and muttered to himself for a moment before relaxing his brows. He then walked to the back of the table and sat down.
Just as his butt touched the surface of the chair, his vision suddenly blurred. Zhu Yilong, who looked like the Black-Robed Envoy, appeared again. He instantly took off his disguise and turned into Shen Wei.
"Oh!" Although Bai Yu was prepared, he was still shocked by the sudden appearance of the person.
It was different from filming. In real life, it was really a little scary to see someone suddenly appear and disappear.
Zhu Yilong keenly noticed the change in his expression. He paused for a moment, then walked to the chair beside Bai Yu and sat down. "Did I scare you?"
"I'm just not used to it."
Bai Yu stroked his beard. Now that he had calmed down, he was in the mood to tease him. "After all, no matter which world I'm in, I'm an ordinary person. Suddenly, the person beside me becomes a superman. Of course, I'll feel weird."
His words were understated, but Zhu Yilong could completely understand the subtle psychological difference hidden behind it.
However, the reality was that before they had enough contribution points, Bai Yu could only be like Zhao Yunlan in the drama, a weakened Soul Subduing Order owner who was ridiculed by all kinds of supporting characters. And from the looks of it, this situation would continue for a long time.
Fortunately, the system suddenly beeped, informing them that the mission had been completed.
The two of them opened the system interface and saw that the mission "Save Lin Yu-sen" had been completed.
After completing two missions in a row, the two of them were immediately in a good mood and swept away the haze from before. "Not bad!
Today's harvest is almost equivalent to half of the main mission! "
Bai Yu glanced at their current contribution points. 350. They had only returned for two days, and they had already earned so much. It was much faster than before.
In addition, there were the daily missions — right, daily missions!
They had been busy the whole day and had completely forgotten about the daily missions!
Bai Yu looked at the time. There were only five minutes left until midnight. He hurriedly tapped on the system interface and accepted the daily mission. He looked at the mission description. Fortunately, it was a relatively simple interaction. He hurriedly called out to Zhu Yilong.
"Hey!
Brother Long, Brother Long, come and shake hands with me! "
Zhu Yilong also saw the mission notification and reached out to shake his hand in amusement. Three seconds later, the system notified them that the mission had been completed, and their contribution points jumped from 350 to 400.
"Phew!
That was close. I almost wasted these 50 points! "
Bai Yu heaved a sigh of relief and let go of Zhu Yilong's hand. He leaned back carelessly. "Mission accomplished!
Looking at this situation, we can also complete tomorrow's mission while we're at it. "
"Okay." Zhu Yilong looked at the system interface that notified them that the mission had been completed and couldn't help but smile.
"If the two of us do missions together, I'm sure we'll be able to accumulate contribution points faster and faster. You'll probably become a real Soul Subduing Order owner soon."
Wenyan Baiyu waved his hand. "What's the hurry?
The more power you have, the more pressure you have to bear.
Look at you now. You have to travel back and forth between Earth and Starfish. You have to go to school during the day and catch Earthlings at night. I only have to go to work and slack off. During critical moments, I can even summon Brother Hei to protect me. Isn't it much easier than you?
Let's take advantage of this opportunity to accumulate contribution points. When the critical moment comes, I'll make a grand entrance. Isn't that perfect? "
Looking at Bai Yu's smug expression, Zhu Yilong couldn't help but laugh. "Are you sincere?"
"Yes!" Bai Yu nodded with a smug expression.
Seeing him like this, Zhu Yilong shook his head and said, "Don't be so optimistic. Judging from what happened tonight, there are many things that can be changed in the script version of Soul Subduing."
Wenyan Baiyu sat up straight with a grunt. "Oh right, what happened today?
Is the incident with the skinned woman over?
We didn't even have time to do anything. It's … Isn't this OOC? "
Zhu Yilong said, "Actually … I took a bit of a risk with what happened today. It turns out that in this world, we can have more autonomy than we thought, especially when it comes to things that aren't that important. The premise is that our actions have to be in line with the development of the situation. There has to be a valid reason."
Previously, Zhu Yilong had specially studied the script and carefully considered every detail.
In his opinion, knowing the plot was equivalent to having a God's perspective. If they could only passively follow the plot step by step, then what was the point of coming here?
"Previously, after you told me that Lin Yu-sen was at Longcheng University, I specially went to observe him. Coincidentally, I discovered that the girl he had a crush on had a faint fluctuation of black energy.
The girl herself didn't know anything about it. I guess that the skinned woman's accomplice must have left a mark on her body in advance to make it easier for them to act. "
"She has black energy on her body?"
Bai Yu instantly understood. "I understand. You used this reason to secretly follow her to the neighborhood where she lived?"
"Yes."
Zhu Yilong nodded. "Originally, we planned to follow Lin Yu-sen because we were taking advantage of the prophet. But now that we have a reason to turn this prophet into a logical line that can be straightened out, I directly used it.
Obviously, our previous idea was right. As long as we can straighten out what we know using the logical lines of this world, then we can use it openly without worrying about the so-called 'OOC'. "
Bai Yu habitually pursed her lips and nodded. She muttered, "If you put it this way, it does make sense.
Then, did you also predict that the skinned woman would act tonight? "
Zhu Yilong laughed. "You think too highly of me!
This was really a coincidence.
I only guessed that they would act in the near future, but I couldn't pinpoint the exact time. "
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and casually placed his palm on Bai Yu's shoulder. He sighed. "Speaking of which, we were lucky. If my mark had been triggered in the interrogation room, then the entire plot would have been messed up."
Previously, he had left a mark on Xiaoyan just in case.
He didn't expect that he would be unexpectedly taken away by the Special Investigation Department when he went to observe the situation in the neighborhood where Lin Yu-sen and the others lived.
Not long after they left, Lin Yu-sen found out that Xiaoyan had left the house. He quietly followed the flower protector and then witnessed Xiaoyan being taken away.
