With this idea of being sure of victory, I immediately saw that the goal of the first step had been achieved... Although the best route for the other party to eat the can was not achieved, it was also expected so it did not have much impact.
He immediately stood up silently from his seat, and after glancing at his subordinates and the people who were "sleeping" around him, he immediately took a decisive step towards Xia Miao.
"What? The canned food doesn't suit your taste? Little sister Xia Miao!"
The warm and smiling words and the gentle smile that seemed to be fake rang in her ears. When Xia Miao looked up slightly, she saw a face that seemed to want to get closer. She immediately saw Liu Ren with a familiar expression, as if he reached out to touch her head and said:
"This is canned herring, a specialty of Tianta City. It's real sea fish... Well, maybe you don't even know what the sea is. This is..."
The ocean, in this world that has long been reduced to ruins, is undoubtedly a legend or something that is only recorded in documents. After all, the continents today are basically filled with desert ruins, and even the so-called "oasis" is just a lake in its largest area!
As an SS-level psychic in Tianta City, Liu Ren naturally knew the existence of the ocean, and was lucky enough to obtain some "rare resources" from the quota allocated from it, and the so-called canned fish was one of them.
Connecting to the world is not just a privilege for travelers. With the development of technology today, Tower City has undoubtedly mastered this technology. Although it is only in a rudimentary stage, it is enough for them to have some technical and resource conditions that others do not have!
However, before Liu Ren could finish his words with a hint of pride, he did not feel any soft touch in his palm when he put it down the next second, but it just dropped down empty.
"..."
He paused for a moment, then looked up to see Xia Miao had appeared a few meters away. Her emerald green eyes looked at him without any impurities, but with a hint of vigilance flickering in them.
"Sorry, only the owner can touch my head, no one else can!"
The honest words coupled with that serious and cute expression made Liu Rendu feel his heart skip a beat at that moment, and at the same time, he inexplicably felt a strong sense of jealousy.
"Owner?!"
This catwoman... is actually taken?!
126. Transformation
Jealousy, naked jealousy. Although Liu Ren had seen Xia Miao's "cowardly" character these days, and therefore could probably guess that such a girl would definitely not be a top in a place like Tianyu City where scavengers hang out, when he actually heard the other party call him "master", there was no doubt that a flame of jealousy began to burn in his chest.
"What? I thought she was the daughter of some high-ranking official in Tianyu City, but she's just a slave!"
When this thought came to his mind, a dark emotion instantly interfered with Liu Ren's eyes. If that was the case... then obviously there was no need for him to be polite!
"Okay, I'm sorry for being rude. So, Miss Xia Miao... I wonder if my canned food doesn't suit your taste? Or maybe I can give you something else!"
The smiling expression was obviously much colder than before, and even while he was speaking, his body had unconsciously tensed up and was vaguely blocking the road behind him.
"..."
As if they had received some kind of hint, at this moment, those psychics came to every corner of the cave quietly, surrounding Xia Miao in the center. As for the scavengers who were originally saved by Xia Miao... they were still sleeping soundly.
Of course, no one knows whether he really fell asleep!
"No need, meow~~ I'm not hungry!"
As if she didn't notice the situation around her, Xia Miao still responded in a calm tone. After learning about the other party's identity as a "slave", Liu Ren obviously felt impatient after receiving such a disrespectful answer... He was just a slave, why should he go to so much trouble to deal with it?
Thinking of this, he felt the murderous light flashing in his boss's eyes. A psychic not far from him immediately walked towards Xia Miao with his body strengthened.
"But you're just a cat girl. The boss treated you to a meal out of respect. Do you want to die by being so ungrateful?!"
With a ferocious expression and bulging muscles all over his body, he walked towards Xia Miao with a murderous gleam in his ferocious face. While speaking, a pair of big hands that looked bigger than Xia Miao's head grabbed her neck without hesitation, as if he wanted to lift her up directly.
"..."
Liu Ren did not respond to his subordinates' behavior. It was obviously impossible for him to stop them. He was obviously planning to wait and see what would happen. He even had already thought about how he would "care" for the little cat girl in front of him as compensation for being "tricked by the other party".
"Bang~~~"
"Ah~~~"
Just as he was thinking about it, when he suddenly came to his senses with a scream, he saw a black shadow flying towards him in the blink of an eye.
"Steel Force?!"
"Bang~~~"
The sudden attack made Liu Ren subconsciously raise his hand. As a metallic luster flashed from his hand, a huge force had already sent the attacking unknown object flying away in the next second. However, at the same time, another identical and familiar scream was heard again. When Liu Ren came to his senses, he saw that the object he had knocked away was not an unknown object, but clearly his own men!
"..."
His eyes instantly turned in the direction of Xia Miao, but he saw that the girl was still standing there, but her little hands were covered with a layer of small green whirlwind-like substance at some point, and her eyes were looking at them with vigilance, as if a small animal was attacked.
It was obvious that the person who had just made the move was Xia Miao, and this move was also a signal that the two sides had completely torn their faces apart. He was silent for about two seconds while looking at Xia Miao's wary eyes. Feeling that there didn't seem to be much movement in the passage on the other side and obviously he hadn't noticed the situation here, a hint of ruthlessness suddenly flashed in his eyes.
"Catch her alive!"
Originally, he still wanted to get Xia Miao intact and enjoy her, and use her as a hostage. However, who would have thought that he ignored the other party's strength, which led to the current situation. Once Xia Miao called for help at this time, Cai Xiaolin and others on the other side would undoubtedly rush in immediately, and a big battle would be inevitable. This is obviously a very bad situation.
Of course, Liu Ren didn't care much about this. Since his purpose had been exposed, he might as well go all out... Capture the person first. Having a hostage in hand is always better than going to war directly.
While thinking this in his mind, his men who had been ready to take action also rushed directly towards Xia Miao one by one. Of course, a few of them took the opportunity to run to the other side of the cave. As for their target, it was obvious that they were targeting Hong Gu and others... Although in Liu Ren's opinion these people were obviously not enough as hostages, they could still play a role anyway!
"Boom~~"
The battle began without any warning as a ball of fire was released by some unknown psychic. The huge red flame instantly illuminated the entire cave.
On one hand, there is a seemingly weak little cat-eared loli who is about thirteen or fourteen years old, and on the other hand, there are nearly ten people with different superpowers. With such a huge gap, the battle will surely be a complete crushing defeat. The only thing that makes people worry is whether the little girl will be accidentally killed in the battle... After all, a dead hostage is useless!
Liu Ren had such worries in his heart, but he never thought that his men would lose. However, facts proved that sometimes reality is often more cruel than fantasy. At least under Liu Ren's gaze, when several psychics rushed towards Xia Miao, he saw Xia Miao calmly took out a purple... USB flash drive from the pocket of his loose shorts in the next second.
'joker~~'
"Ka~~~"
The purple memory block was gently pressed. Looking at the three majestic figures of physically enhanced psychics coming towards him, only half of the silver-red belt had silently appeared around Xia Miao's waist. With the slight sound of the memory block in his hand, he gently inserted it and pulled it to one side.
"Transform!"
'joker~~~'
"Hula~~~"
A huge whirlwind instantly swept towards the three people who were rushing over. Just as the three people subconsciously narrowed their eyes, the purple metal like fragments had directly wrapped Xia Miao in it. And it was at the moment when people's vision was blurred by the sudden gust of wind and sand, that a figure suddenly came quietly to the side of one of the psychics.
"Hey~~"
127. Outnumbered
"Hey~~"
The gentle voice sounded like a little girl's cute voice, but what Xia Miao did at that moment clearly had nothing to do with being cute:
Just like he had thrown away the psychic before, Xia Miao stretched out his hands and grabbed the other person's waist without hesitation. Then he lifted up the figure that was three or four times bigger than himself, and then aimed at the psychic who had released the fire before in the distance and threw him directly at him.
"Bang~~"
A scream seemed to ring from her ears, but Xia Miao had no time to pay attention to it. She transformed into Joker and almost at the same time she threw the psychic in front of her away, she twisted her body like a nimble kitten and jumped to the side.
"Da da da da da da~~"
Dense bullets swept across the ground the moment she left the ground. It was obvious that Liu Ren's men were not only people with special abilities, but also those who used firearms to fight. At this time, Xia Miao could see that not far away, a young man with an indifferent expression casually threw the machine gun in his hand to the ground. Then, with a flash of light on his hands, he held a heavy sniper in his hands and aimed directly at her.
"Bang~~~"
A huge shock wave accompanied by the sound of a bullet being fired, and a huge deep pit appeared without warning just a few centimeters to the side of the shrimp. At the same time that the shrimp had just turned around, two figures had silently come to her side, and the daggers in their hands stabbed straight into her waist and arms.
"Ding ding~~"
With a crisp sound, he nimbly grabbed the dagger with both hands. Then he saw two almost identical men's figures holding the daggers. At this moment, a strong wind suddenly came from behind them.
"Bang~~"
He was hit hard on the back and his body uncontrollably slammed forward.
"Boom~~~"
Xia Miao was not buried for long among the rocks. He pushed away the stone in front of him and stood up. At first glance, he saw that the person who attacked him was none other than Liu Ren, whose whole body was covered with metallic luster.
It was unexpected that an SS-level psychic would attack at a critical moment instead of attacking head-on. However, Liu Ren obviously no longer had the patience to play along with Xia Miao. He just looked at her coldly and ordered:
"Catch her, quick!"
It is obviously impossible to say that Cai Xiaolin and others on the other side did not hear such a big commotion here. A quick victory is undoubtedly the focus at the moment, so there is no need to plan a sneak attack.
"Yes!"
The twin-like men have once again turned into black shadows and disappeared into the ground. Judging from their superpowers, they should be shadow-related. At the same time, the two body-enhanced men standing on Liu Ren's left and right were each wearing a pair of steel gloves and rushed straight towards Xia Miao. At the same time, a huge flame net fell from the sky. That was the move released by the fire superpower user who had just been attacked by Xia Miao.
A dragnet, a real dragnet... Facing such an oncoming attack, Xia Miao suddenly slammed his hand on his waist.
"Joker~~EX·Explosion!"
The purple light of the ultimate move gathered on the toes, and a faint breeze instantly surrounded the whole body. The next second, a sudden storm suddenly emanated from Xia Miao's body. The sudden reverse impact force caused both the attack and the figure rushing towards him to pause slightly. When the storm dissipated, the opponent's figure was no longer in sight.
"above!"
Liu Ren was the first to react and suddenly let out a loud shout. When everyone looked up, they saw a purple streak heading straight towards... the weapon holder who had been waiting for Xia Miao to break out of the encirclement with a gun in the distance.
"Bang~~"
It seemed that he did not expect that the first person the other party attacked would be him. Caught off guard, the young man with the weapon simply raised the sniper rifle in his hand and fired an explosive bullet at Xia Miao's chasing figure.
"Boom~~"
At the same time that the huge flames enveloped the purple figure, before the other party could breathe a sigh of relief, the next moment the purple figure had instantly come close to him.
"What... woooo ...
"Boom~~"
The huge impact force caused the ground to explode with a loud noise, accompanied by smoke and countless gravel shooting in all directions, and Xia Miao's figure was also looming in it.
"Kakakaka~~~"
The moment a huge drill bit like a metal plate suddenly emerged from the ground not far away, it suddenly exploded, revealing the expression of the young man who was gasping for breath.
The indifference on his face had long since disappeared, replaced by a look of fear as he looked at Xia Miao. However, no one paid any attention to him at this moment. Instead, everyone looked at Xia Miao in the smoke and dust, waiting to attack her as soon as she appeared.
And just as all kinds of supernatural powers were ready to be unleashed, as the smoke gradually thinned out, what appeared behind the smoke was... no one?!
"Whoo~~~"
The green wind surrounded them from all directions without anyone noticing. The sudden whirlwind swept around everyone around them. Just as they were on guard for the next second, a purple figure suddenly appeared behind Liu Ren, and without any hesitation, the small fist smashed down on the other's head.
"Block~~~"
The fist landed on the opponent's head without any reservation, but it did not blow up the opponent's head as expected. Instead, it was accompanied by a muffled sound of metal. Xia Miao also clearly heard the muffled sound made by Liu Ren in front of him.
"Boom~~~"
A huge iron-gray aura suddenly burst out from the opponent's body, and in the blink of an eye, finger-sized sharp blades formed in front of him. The moment Liu Ren's gaze fell on Xia Miao, it shot towards her without reservation.
“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh~~~”
"Pfft~~"
Under the intensive attack, although Xia Miao chose to retreat at the first moment, her armor was still directly pierced and left with scars. When she was at a distance from Liu Ren, light flashed from her body, and the transformation... was lifted!
128. Exchange Players
"..."
"..."
After the transformation was released, Xia Miao stretched out his hand to hold the position of his left shoulder. He saw that under the green breeze, a scar on the slipped clothes was healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Looking at Xia Miao like this, Liu Ren also came back to his senses from the previous sudden attack. He looked at Xia Miao with an even more ferocious look. There was no longer any confidence in his eyes, but instead they were full of violence.
"I didn't expect...I underestimated you!"
He never expected that Xia Miao, who looked so weak, actually had such ability. Although his side did not actually lose a single person in the lightning-fast battle just now, even the warriors relying on thermal weapons did not suffer much damage from Xia Miao's attack, but the combat effectiveness displayed by Xia Miao had undoubtedly attracted Liu Ren's attention.
"It seems impossible to catch you intact. In that case..."
The idea of enjoying himself had been completely abandoned. Now in Liu Ren's mind, it was clear that as long as he could catch Xia Miao, even if one of them was injured, it would not matter, so...
"You guys... go find a way to contain those guys over there, leave her... to me!"
There was already movement coming from the tunnel next door. It was obviously Cai Xiaolin and the others who had heard the noise and were rushing over. Immediately, under Liu Ren's command, all his psychics rushed towards the tunnel. After all, they were all A-level psychics. Regardless of whether they were a match or not, at least they could easily stop them. Therefore...
"You were just trying to buy time, weren't you? You wanted to wait for reinforcements or something... I won't give you that chance again!"
His goal was to end the battle quickly, while Xia Miao's goal was to delay time. Judging from the battle situation just now, Liu Ren analyzed that Xia Miao's special ability was wind, and his main means of combat was the armed armor he had used before plus his own wind-based special ability. However, based on the observation just now, that thing... was not a concern at all!
"My special ability is 'Steel'. I can transform my entire body into steel while also freely manipulating the steel elements around me. I want to see how your wind... can hurt me!"
It can be said that Liu Ren's ability is completely Xia Miao's nemesis, whether it is for her wind or for W's armor. After all, now without the support of a partner to transform into W and only with Joker, Xia Miao can be said to be in a state of excessive speed and insufficient attack. In this case, it is obviously impossible to fight against Liu Ren.
