Raven couldn't help but curse. She had no way to deal with the people behind her. She couldn't hit them or run away. There was even a brief moment when she wondered whether she should be caught by him and then find an opportunity to escape.
"You won't fight back?"
Jackal's voice was slightly urgent, not because he was worried about Raven's safety, but mainly because she had important experimental items on her body.
"You think I don't have one!"
The raven's hand holding the box clenched, annoyed at the jackal's words.
"It's not like you don't know the details of that guy. If he gets serious, I can't break his guard at all."
"Don't worry, the person to help you will be here soon. Then..."
Before the raven had finished listening, he felt a wave of Honkai energy appearing behind him and hurriedly jumped forward.
"Didn't you catch it?"
Luo Chen retracted Susan's arm and seemed a little happy. He didn't expect that the first time he went out to search, he would bump into a raven, and the raven was carrying a box that looked very important.
"Sir, I think we have nothing to do. I don't know why you are chasing me."
Raven was breathing heavily. She felt a little tired from running away all the way, especially since she had to be constantly careful about Luo Chen's attacks from time to time. Her spirit was always highly tense.
"I don't have any issues with you, but I do with the organization behind you."
Luo Chen kept smiling and looked at the box in Raven's hand without hesitation.
"How about this, Miss Raven, just give me the box in your hand, and I won't chase you. How about it, isn't it a good deal?"
"Please allow me to refuse, this is my salary."
What Raven said was true. If it weren't for the extra reward, she wouldn't have come to New Zealand to do the mission.
"Really? Then there's nothing we can do."
Luo Chen spread his hands, and several vines quickly clung to the buildings on both sides, heading towards the raven.
"It's troublesome."
The raven threw out the grenades, blew up the nearest ones, turned around and ran in the direction the jackal said.
‘Why haven’t the Raven reinforcements arrived yet? I still have to go back and take care of Wendy. ’
According to Luo Chen's plan, he planned to capture everyone when Raven's helpers arrived, and use the hostages and the black box as bargaining chips in exchange for information.
"Isn't that box related to the Stigmata Project?"
Luo Chen wanted to know what was in the box, so that a cadre-level raven could come over in person.
Walking through the alley, Luo Chen came to an abandoned open-air parking lot, which was overgrown with weeds and had many scrapped vehicles. Luo Chen saw Raven running in the parking lot, using vehicles to cover his tracks, hoping to get rid of Luo Chen.
"There shouldn't be anyone around here, so I'll play big."
Luo Chen entered the parking lot and kept teleporting to close the distance between himself and the raven. When they were almost close, Luo Chen called out Susan and used his double swords to overturn all the broken cars nearby.
The raven rolled forward to avoid the car that was smashing into it. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead as he looked at the red armor.
"What kind of foul is this!"
The raven felt that he couldn't escape this time. The flaming thing opposite him was not easy to deal with at first sight. She now only hopes that the support Jackal said will arrive earlier, otherwise she will have to wait to collect her body.
"So, Miss Raven, do you want to consider the proposal I just made?"
Raven's free hand was hidden under the cloak, grabbing the grenade strapped to her waist, thinking about an escape route.
"Mr. Luo Chen, are you being too bullying?"
Listening to the familiar mechanical sound, Raven sighed that it was finally here. Looking for the source of the sound, Gray Snake was leading several mechas over.
"Really? I don't think so."
Luo Chen transformed Susana into a skeleton, crossed his arms and looked at the gray snake.
Thinking of what Yuno said to him a few days ago, the smile on Luo Chen's face disappeared and he said in a cold tone: "You seem to want to pry into my corner."
"That's just to provide a way for Ms. Sato to become stronger."
Gray Snake walked up to Raven, and the mechas surrounded the two of them in a defensive posture to avoid Luo Chen's sudden attack.
"Ah."
Flames ignited on the skeleton, and Luo Chen was ready to beat up the gray snake first and consider other things later.
"Mr. Luo Chen is chasing after me, it's definitely not just for this."
"How do you know that I'm not?"
Luo Chen fought back mercilessly. Now he just wanted Gray Snake to understand the consequences of trying to force him into a corner.
"Mr. Luo Chen, I think we should talk about the information you need."
"cut."
After Luo Chen heard this, the flames on the skeleton disappeared, waiting for the gray snake to continue speaking.
"Compared to beating me up, this thing is of greater significance to Mr. Luo Chen."
Gray Snake took out a folder from his briefcase and handed it to the mecha on the side, asking him to walk to Luo Chen.
Luo Chen took it over with Susana, opened it and scanned it casually, and found that it turned out to be the coordinates of several former civilization bases, which made him feel a little strange.
"Why did you give me this?"
Luo Chen carefully read what Gray Snake gave him. Not only did it contain the coordinates of the base, but even the layout of the base was clearly written.
"No reason, this is a great gift from the snake to you."
Gray Snake leaned forward and ordered the mecha to retreat to both sides. He stepped forward and threw a card to Luo Chen.
"This is the activation key for these bases. I hope Mr. Luo Chen will accept it well."
Luo Chen caught the card. The current situation made him very confused. He didn't understand what Gray Snake's operation meant.
"This is all the Lord's intention. He hopes that I can recruit Mr. Luo Chen. So he gave me these meeting gifts."
"Kevin? Isn't he still in the Quantum Sea?"
Luo Chen wanted to ask more, but the mecha next to Gray Snake fired smoke bombs, blocking Luo Chen's sight.
When the smoke cleared, Gray Snake and Raven had left, leaving Luo Chen alone in the parking lot.
Luo Chen looked at the card in his hand, silently put it into his pocket, and prepared to return to the branch.
In a tall building not far away, Gray Snake looked at Luo Chen's back without saying anything, while Raven beside him felt a little bored.
"So what you just said is true?"
Raven didn't believe what Gray Snake said at all. Kevin was still in the Quantum Sea, so how could he contact him.
"Don't ask if you shouldn't ask."
The gray snake turned around, and the mechanical voice showed indifference, with no intention of solving the raven's doubts.
"Okay then, you can take the things back with you."
The raven handed the box in his hand to the gray snake and said lazily: "I won't go back and listen to the jackal's tirade."
"Please feel free to do so. Your mission has been completed. The money has been transferred to your card."
"That's fine."
Chapter 101 Emperor Wen Tian’s shock
Back at the branch, Luo Chen first bought a large bag of snacks from a nearby store, and then came back to find Wendy.
When he opened the door, he saw Wendy sitting by the window reading a book. Luo Chen put the bag on the table and greeted her.
"Wendy, I'm back."
"So early today?"
Wendy put down the book, saw the snacks on the table, and asked Luo Chen. In the past few days, Luo Chen usually came back in the evening when he went out, but this time he actually came back in the afternoon.
"The things are finally done, so come back early."
Luo Chen walked to the kitchen, put on an apron, opened the refrigerator, looked at the vegetables inside, and asked Wendy, "What do you want to eat for lunch?"
"Whatever, I can do it."
"Then I'll do whatever I want."
Not long after, the smell of food came from the kitchen. Wendy put the books back on the bookshelf, pushed the wheelchair to the dining table, and prepared the dishes.
Luo Chen brought the prepared dishes to the table, served the rice to Wendy, and sat across from Wendy.
After getting along for a few days, the two gradually became familiar with each other. Especially after listening to Luo Chen's story, Wendy let go of her guard against him.
"By the way, Wendy, there is something I want to ask you."
After Luo Chen finished showing off the food in his bowl, he looked at Wendy who was still cooking and said.
"what is the problem?"
"Just, do you want to stand up again?"
Wendy hesitated for a second and looked at Luo Chen in disbelief with wide eyes, wondering if he was joking.
"You heard that right."
Luo Chen leaned on the chair, put away his playful attitude, and looked at Wendy seriously: "I have a way to make you stand up again and fight."
"really?"
Wendy still didn't believe it. She had been in a wheelchair for three years, and now Luo Chen told her that she could stand up again. It seemed impossible no matter how she thought about it.
"Remember what I told you about Bronya? Her legs were unable to be used due to the erosion of Honkai energy, and she relied on exoskeleton armor to stand up again."
"You mean, I can use exoskeleton armor too?"
"That's right. I've asked Otto for the exoskeleton armor and biochip. With the help of the desire gem in your body, it's quite easy to stand up."
Wendy was still in shock at this time, completely unaware that Luo Chen's words clearly indicated that she could use the Desire Gem.
"But you have to wait for a while. Then I will take you to St. Freya, and the principal will make arrangements."
"No, you just said to use the power of the desire gem..."
Wendy finally reacted and stared at Luo Chen, feeling a little scared. She didn't know how he knew.
"What? Are you surprised?"
Luo Chen raised his hand to signal Wendy not to panic. He had no intention of taking action: "Actually, I've known that you can use the power of longing for gems, but what does it matter? Isn't it the Herrscher? What I saw was... few?"
Wendy agreed upon hearing this, and she could feel that Du Luochen was sincere when he took care of her, so her vigilance was dispelled.
"So Luo Chen, what is your purpose of approaching me?"
Wendy didn't believe that Luo Chen had no purpose at all in approaching her, and she felt a little ashamed that she had only unilaterally accepted his kindness. She also wanted to help Luo Chen.
"Do you want to know?"
Seeing Wendy nodding, Luo Chen thought about it and decided to speak out, otherwise it would be difficult to absorb the energy of the gem.
"To put it simply, I can absorb the energy in the Herrscher's core, so Otto wanted me to try if I can absorb the energy of the Desire Stone."
Afraid that Wendy wouldn't believe it, Luo Chen raised his hand to activate Honkai energy, and lightning and flames appeared in his hand. As for Death Law's Honkai energy, Luo Chen didn't use it. He was afraid that if the Honkai energy spread accidentally, the whole room would suffer.
Wendy showed a surprised expression for the second time. She was still skeptical when Luo Chen first revealed his purpose. But after seeing what he was doing, Wendy especially wanted to know how Luo Chen did it.
"How did you do it? It looks amazing!"
"To be honest, I'm quite curious about how I did it."
Luo Chen withdrew his Honkai energy. Regarding Wendy's question, he also wanted to know where his strange abilities came from.
"So you came to take care of me just because you wanted the gem?"
Wendy was a little disappointed in her heart. She originally thought that Luo Chen was different from others, but it seemed that it was because of the gem in her body that she was so kind to her.
"What are you thinking about? Most of the reason is because of you."
Wendy's unhappiness was almost written on her face. Luo Chen really didn't know why Wendy thought about things so pessimistically.
"I read your information in advance and found that you are very similar to a friend of mine, so I couldn't help but want to take care of you."
Recalling Wendy's ending in the game, Luo Chen couldn't help but feel sorry for the person in front of him. After all, she was just a little girl who was full of longing for the future. Why was she allowed to end her promising life so hastily?
‘Sure enough, everything was the planning’s fault! ’
