Arknights, the Angel of Justice is waiting for level 16

Ji Luo was lying in the passenger seat. He suddenly opened his eyes and looked out the window.

"Besides, he's not the kind of rotten person who has nowhere else to go."

"where?"

After Chen Zai obtained the power of Mingshi Cang Lei, her perception ability has far exceeded that of ordinary people. However, even if she concentrated on sensing her surroundings, she did not notice someone staring at them.

"in the sky."

Ji Luo opened the car window and pointed Chen in the direction. Chen slowed down and looked far away, and saw a circling falcon.

"Is it...the bird?"

"Yes, it is being kept by someone, and it is staring at us now."

Ji Luo raised the car window again to prevent others from understanding the conversation between the two through their lip movements.

"There are so many strange Originium skills in the Terra world. I'm not surprised that someone can tame beasts."

"What should I do? Should I tell Krush?"

"What do you think?"

Ji Luo was too lazy to think about all these twists and turns, so he simply threw the question to Chen. The girl pondered for a while and finally shook her head.

"Let's not talk about it for now. Exposing your detection ability is troublesome. We have to be careful. Besides... the Warren Chamber of Commerce has been traveling back and forth between Longmen and Columbia for many years. It's impossible for them to be killed so easily."

"Yeah. Let them watch. They won't take action right away anyway."

Ji Luo looked at the clouds above his head where rain was accumulating, and he easily guessed the moment when the other party would take action.

"It is said that there are many Sarkaz in Kazdel, and they make a living by robbing the Lateran Chamber of Commerce. Is it true or not?"

"Given Kazdel's current state, it's common for the Sarkaz to rob caravans. Moreover, Ratlan and the Sarkaz have a feud, so it's natural for the two sides to be hostile, but..."

Chen searched through his limited knowledge, trying to give Ji Luo an accurate answer.

"But I think there shouldn't be any Sarkaz who specialize in robbing Lateran caravans."

"Blood demon... Wendigo... Goliath... What a strange array of demons."

Ji Luo had been in Kazdel for so many days, but he had not seen a village or a living Sarkaz. He was really desperate about this country.

In this country, the law of the jungle has become a matter of course, and people establish connections mostly to tear at the flesh of the other party.

"Heh~ In this country, might is right. It's too real. It doesn't leave any room for the weak."

Ji Luo did have some beautiful fantasies about Surtel's hometown, but now he is very disappointed.

However, this chaotic and disordered land is not without value. At least the people here will submit to the powerful force.

"Such hot weather really needs a heavy rain..."

Chapter 153: Attack in the Rain

Gloomy rain clouds have been hanging over the convoy. A torrential rain may come at any time. The eyes that have been watching along the way are about to reveal their ferociousness...

"Attention everyone, in preparation for the coming heavy rain, please park at the designated locations and take appropriate precautions."

Everyone in the convoy's communicator was silenced, and this simple command began to repeat in a loop, making the listeners feel dizzy.

"Ah...are the mercenaries all children? They have to repeat themselves over and over again."

Ji Luo rubbed his forehead, muttered, and turned down the volume of the communicator. Chen sat next to him, holding a half-read novel in his hand. The girl gathered her hair around her ears and looked at him with a smile.

"Ji Luo, have you noticed that Willow's attitude towards you is completely different from that towards others~"

"Huh? What nonsense are you talking about?"

Ji Luo glared at Chen fiercely. The girl put the book on her chest and giggled like a hen.

Ji Luo put on a sullen face, thinking about Wei Luo's recent performance when she brought them meals, and sniffed slightly in dissatisfaction.

"I'm so handsome and tall, it's natural for her to like me. I... am very loyal to my husband."

"Oh~ Really? The Ji Luo in my memory is a pervert who wants to touch someone's horns when he meets them for the first time~"

"Ahem, that's just for you. After all... I had a crush on you before I met you."

"Um……"

Chen was originally planning to tease Ji Luo, but he suddenly mentioned this sentence again. The expression on the girl's face darkened and she answered very softly.

"Ji Luo, it's great to meet you."

"Humph~ That's not what we call meeting, I went through thousands of hardships and difficulties to meet you~"

"Really? Bring your favorite person~"

Chen pouted his lips, looking very cute. If the people around Longmen saw Chen's expression now, they would probably drop their jaws in shock.

If Shi Huaiya knew that Chen, who she thought was rigid and mean, could behave like a young girl, she would probably think that Chen had mental problems.

Only Ji Luo, who was used to Chen showing her little girl's emotions when they were alone, did not answer her, but leaned down and kissed the girl's lips gently.

"..." "..."

The carriage fell silent, with only the sound of heavy breathing. Soon after, the two separated, and the girl lay flat on the seat, her eyes as if filled with water.

"Ji Luo, please don't use so much force, your lips will swell up."

"Eh? Really? How come I didn't notice it?"

Ji Luo wanted to stare at Chen's lips out of curiosity. The girl playfully hit him, pulled out a tissue next to her and wiped her lips, then used her own tissue to wipe Ji Luo's mouth.

"Pighead! You are as stupid as a pig."

"Yes, I am a pig, a pig for cabbage."

Ji Luo lowered his head slightly and rubbed his nose against Chen's neck. The girl felt itchy, so she smiled and pushed Ji Luo's head away, pinching the tip of his nose.

"Ji Luo, I feel like I am becoming less and less like myself. If we really wait for half a year and then return to Longmen, will no one recognize me?"

"No, as long as you don't have the ball, Wei Yanwu will not disown you."

At this time, Ji Luo saw the gestures of the commander outside the window. He started the car and began to drive to the designated location according to the instructions.

"what?"

Chen didn't understand what Ji Luo was talking about at first. The girl was stunned for a moment, and then her cheeks turned red.

"Ji Luo, you're going to die!"

"Hey! Stop hitting me! I'm driving. Do you know how safe it is to drive?"

"You're driving so slowly, how can you be safe? I told you to be safe! I told you to be safe!"

"Surrender, surrender. I was wrong. I was just speaking from my heart."

"Humph~ The safety of children born nowadays cannot be guaranteed."

Chen turned her gaze to the window, her expression becoming somewhat gloomy. She and Ji Luo could ignore the infection of mineral disease because of the power of the Star Spirit. But in this world, the birth of the children of the infected was a tragedy.

"Chen, the future will definitely change. Isn't that what we are going to do?"

Ji Luo parked the car at the designated location. He reached out and rubbed Chen's head. The girl's hair was soft and cool, and felt very good.

"Idiot, I just combed my hair."

Chen muttered softly to Ji Luo, closed the book in his hand and put it in the back of the car.

"Ji Luo, someone is following the convoy. Have you reminded them?"

"I've said it before. I guess it's for this reason that the convoy didn't continue on its journey, but stayed here to wait for the heavy rain."

Ji Luo unbuckled his seat belt and glanced around. The place chosen by the convoy was a slightly higher hillside. All the cars were arranged in a circle around the entire camp, and they would be connected with iron cables later.

"This place is okay, at least we don't have to worry about mudslides and waterlogging."

"However, after the heavy rain, this place must be extremely muddy, and the convoy cannot move until the water seeps away."

Chen took off her seat belt and got out of the car with Ji Luo. The mercenaries nearby hurriedly bowed their heads and greeted her, looking even more frightened than when the criminals saw Chen at Longmen.

Chen didn't like the mercenaries' habits, and he didn't like their fearful looks even more, so the girl walked away and decided to take a walk.

"Jilo, I'm just walking around."

"Well, don't go too far. I'll come find you later."

Ji Luo knew that Chen was unwilling to have contact with the mercenaries, so he took over the rest of the chores. He dug out the iron chain from the car and finished the work while chatting with the driver of the car behind him.

After securing the car, Ji Luo was planning to go find Chen, but he didn't expect Krush to suddenly come over.

"Mr. Ji Luo."

"Don't add Mr., I'm really not used to it."

Ji Luo realized that Krush might be in trouble, so he and he walked to the side to avoid being eavesdropped.

"Captain Krush, are you worried about the group of people following you?"

"Well, the rainstorm may happen tonight, and the attack...either at midnight or in the early morning."

This is not the first time that Krush has cooperated with the Warren Chamber of Commerce. They have been on this path for some years and have experienced many attacks and accidents.

"Ji Luo, I have something to ask of you."

"Want me to help?"

Ji Luo is now also a member of the team. He will definitely not stand idly by if he encounters an attack, but forget about becoming the gold medal fighter of the Warren Chamber of Commerce.

"No, we are not that stupid. You and your wife are both rich people, and our life-threatening work has little to do with you."

Krush took out his cigarette case and habitually wanted to hand it to Ji Luo, but halfway through his hand, he suddenly remembered the difference in their status and wanted to put the cigarette back awkwardly.

But what Krush didn't expect was that Ji Luo suddenly reached out, took the cigarette in his hand, and accepted the kindness.

"Don't be so timid. If the team encounters any problem, I won't act rashly, but I won't ignore the team's destruction either."

"Thank you, I really appreciate it."

Krush had been fighting against mercenaries for so many years and had met some big shots, but Ji Luo and Chen were different from everyone else. Although they rarely interacted with others, they always treated others equally in their words and actions.

——Even, there is no distinction between normal people and infected people.

"Jiluo, I would like to trouble you to let Willow stay at your place tonight."

"Just this once."

"Thank you! That's enough!"

"Heh~ Don't be so anxious to thank me, I mean..."

This was the first time that Ji Luo saw Krush's humble expression. This Sarkaz, who was born in Kazdel, did not become a wandering and plundering mercenary, but had his own industry in Colombia. This must be a legendary story.

"It's free this time only. Next time, I'll charge a lot of money."

"I'll keep it in mind!"

Krush nodded heavily and even bowed to Ji Luo. Ji Luo nodded in response and watched him return to the convoy.

"It's really... pitiful for the love of parents in the world."

Chen came over at this time, looking a little caught up. Ji Luo walked over, held her hand, and looked into the distance with her...

After dinner, the construction of the camp came to an end, but the mercenaries did not dare to relax at all. They kept doing various inspections and preparations to ensure that they had a better chance of survival in the next attack.

At dusk, there was a faint sound of thunder in the sky, followed by raindrops falling, but not quickly.

The camp was already prepared at this time, but many people were still wearing raincoats and rushing to check for hidden dangers.

Soon after, the rain gradually became heavier. Most of the mercenaries were resting in the tents, and only a few stayed in the vehicles on the periphery to observe the surroundings.

It was a rare opportunity for Ji Luo and Chen not to drive, so they sat in the back seat of the car, each holding a book, and snuggling up to each other quietly.

Although the SUV had a large cabin, Wei Luo did not stay with Ji Luo. She sat in the front passenger seat, doing her exercises seriously.

Because there were other people around, Ji Luo and Chen Ye didn't get too close. Wei Luo didn't dare to breathe loudly for fear of disturbing them.

For a moment, the carriage was unusually quiet, with only the rustling of pens and the occasional sound of pages turning.

Ji Luo fell asleep while reading a book. Chen heard his even breathing and carefully changed her position so that Ji Luo lay on her legs.

"Willow, are you doing your homework?"

"Ah? No... I'm preparing for next semester's knowledge and doing some exercises in advance."
