Without hesitation, the woman grabbed the hoisting rope with one hand and let the helicopter hoist her up, then entered the helicopter cabin.
Xia Mu stared blankly at the departing helicopter.
"Professor, she just left like that? And she took the 'key' with her?" he asked, pointing over there.
Oh my god! Who's going to open the gates of the Three Gorges Dam if the key is lost?!
How can you kill Norton's dragon servant if you can't open the floodgates?!
How can he steal the dragon's head if he can't kill it?!
What's wrong with this woman?!
“She’s done her mission, and said she’s in a bad mood and wants to go back,” Mans said indifferently. “Anyway, she’s just a nuisance, so let her go.”
Xia Mu was speechless.
What kind of development is this?
Did that woman take him away because she got too close to the "key"?
Whoops!
what the hell!
"Mumu, what's wrong?"
Erii gripped his hand tightly, her eyes flickering with unease.
"fine."
Xia Mu shook his head, then turned to Mans and said, "Professor, fill the diving bell with oxygen. I'm going down again."
Mans noticed his serious expression and was taken aback: "What's wrong?"
“Just in case, I’ll go underwater to meet them,” Xia Mu said, looking at him.
Mans' heart was racing. This was the first time he had seen the boy with such an expression since Xia Mu came aboard the ship. He was so determined and resolute, without the slightest hesitation.
Why did he seem like a different person after the "key" left?
"Mumu, I just received a call from you."
Erii suddenly handed him her phone, a hint of unease flashing in her eyes, and whispered in his ear, "It's your brother."
"Ok?"
Xia Mu's heart skipped a beat. What kind of trouble was Yuan Zhisheng up to now?
He walked to the side to answer the phone and called out familiarly, "Brother."
"Hmm," Yuan Zhisheng's voice was steady and caring, "Norma told me you became a temporary agent? What kind of mission are you on?"
"I don't know, it seems like they're looking for something," Xia Mu replied ambiguously, since he shouldn't have known anything anyway.
"Yes, you don't need to worry about these things. Just help out when needed, but our agreement..."
Xia Mu nodded: "I know, I won't use 'Judgment' directly. Besides the Spiritual Fire, I recently killed the Wind state, which allows me to manipulate air currents. They say it's the Eye of the Wind King."
"The Flame of the Spirit... The Eye of the Wind King..."
Yuan Zhisheng raised his voice a little: "Didn't I tell you to only use that Spirit Fire?"
"I just... tried it out, and then they saw it..." Xia Mu said softly, like a wronged child.
Yuan Zhisheng's tone immediately softened: "It's alright, it's alright. From now on, you can only show these two powers at most. Please, please don't create anything new, okay? Be good."
"it is good."
Xia Mu agreed.
"Yes, be careful when making calls. It's alright since this is a special line protected by Princess Kaguya, but you can't touch anything forbidden under other circumstances, including your Word of Power," Genji instructed. "Take good care of yourself."
"it is good."
Xia Mu glanced around and thought, "Stop nagging, I'm going to slay the dragon after I hang up."
“Don’t let them tell you to do dangerous things. If you get into trouble, tell me and call this hotline,” Yuan Zhisheng continued.
"I'm hanging up now. Goodbye, brother."
Natsuki slammed the phone down and handed it to Erii: "Wait for me upstairs. Remember our promise."
Erii's eyes reflected the stormy sky, yet were filled with his figure: "Okay."
"Be careful, Ye Sheng and the others have already penetrated deep into Bronze City." Mans didn't say anything, but just patted Xia Mu on the shoulder.
The diving bell submerged again.
"Aki, your heart is racing. Are you alright?"
Selma's slightly nervous voice came through the headphones.
"I'm fine, just a little dizzy," Aki said.
Xia Mu sat cross-legged inside the diving bell, listening to the progress coming through his headphones, his anxiety gradually building.
"Signal interrupted!" Selma exclaimed aboard the Moniach. "Data transmission between us and Aki has been interrupted!"
Mans paused for a moment, then shouted, "Reel in! Reel in! Warning Ye Sheng!"
The engine at the stern started turning again, retrieving Aki's lifeline.
“There’s no tension in the engine,” Selma looked up, her face drained of color. “Aki’s lifeline has snapped again!”
"Xia Mu! Xia Mu! How are you?!" Mans asked.
"Everything seems normal."
Xia Mu calmly replied, while simultaneously drawing the underwater pistol modified by the equipment department, his eyes fixed on the outside of the diving bell, sensing the water flow within a radius of fifty meters.
"Wait five more minutes! Wait for Ye Sheng!" Mans shouted.
Everyone was glued to the monitor.
"wrong!"
Xia Mu suddenly shouted, "Requesting backup! Professor! Request backup from the academy! The entire Bronze City is functioning! It's come back to life!"
"what?!"
Mans is horrified.
"Dong dong dong..."
The deafening sound of the bell startled Lu Mingfei awake. He sat up abruptly, turned his head to look out the window, where the midday sun shone brightly.
"Why are they ringing the bell? Don't they take a nap?" His first reaction was to curse, and his second reaction was to pull up the covers, cover his head, and go back to sleep.
He huddled in bed for a while, then realized something was wrong.
The sound of the bell did not diminish in the slightest.
Lu Mingfei slowly pulled back the covers.
"Hey, over here," someone said from the window.
A boy in a black suit, white silk shirt, and square-toed leather shoes sat on his windowsill, gazing quietly into the distance.
Lu Mingze.
Lu Mingfei froze for a moment, then felt a chill run down his spine. He shouted, "Don't push me down this time. Let's talk this out."
“Not this time. I’m just reminding you that something is happening, so be prepared,” the boy said.
"What's going on? A dragon invasion, the world is going to be destroyed? Don't wake me up from my nap unless it's something that big."
"Didn't you hear it? The bell rang."
The boy said meaningfully, "You need to prepare yourself. To continue your studies here as an 'S' grade student, you can't be too useless. Remember the cheat codes in StarCraft? Black Sheep Wall, reveals the entire map, very useful, right?"
"Nonsense, don't you know how important exploration is in interstellar space?"
"The first secret I taught you was the Black Sheep Wall, and now that secret is unlocked. Use it, and you'll get a detailed map of your surroundings. But remember not to overuse it, or you'll be discovered." The boy smiled mysteriously.
"Invincibility Begins with Sacrificing to the Ancestral Master"
Lu Mingfei was baffled: "What would I use it for while lying in bed?"
"Remember that Xia Mu?" the boy smiled mysteriously. "Want to see everything? Want to help him?"
Lu Mingfei sat up straight immediately: "Where is he? What is he doing?"
"He's doing something very dangerous, he's waiting for rescue, and the only one who can help him now is you." The boy covered his mouth and disappeared.
Lu Mingfei's vision blurred for a moment, and then he saw Nuonuo suddenly appear at his window.
"Hey! What are you standing there for! Let's go!"
Nono grabbed him and ran outside.
"Why are you pulling me? Shouldn't you be pulling your Caesar instead?" Lu Mingfei stumbled.
"I don't need to explain, he gets most excited about this kind of thing. He's definitely already gathered all the elite members of his student council and headed to the library!"
A group of people rushed into the library and entered the main control room.
Chapter 125 I Love You Too
"Everyone, we need your help, right now."
"At this very moment, two members of the Executive Department are trapped in a dragon ruin. We just obtained important information from there, but the mechanism has been triggered, and the way in and out is blocked."
"Their oxygen is decreasing every second, and we must find a way out for them as soon as possible."
Professor Schneider's voice was deep and rapid, as if he really wanted to save every second.
Lu Mingfei looked around.
Everyone stared at the painting in contemplation, sketching casually on paper, the pencils scratching softly on the paper.
Caesar and Chu Zihang were both staring at the big screen, their faces terribly gloomy, especially Chu Zihang.
He knew that Xia Mu was also in that task force.
Natsuki…
