Chapter 392: Another Crisis
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After Chu Bai went offline, he had a good rest.
He slept at night and woke up the next morning.
Chu Bai stretched and walked out.
Im starving. 1 need to eat something.
Yu Qingyu was sitting in the living room, scrolling through something on her phone.
Is there anything to eat?
Chu Bai asked.
Yes, Ive cooked some noodles. Ill get some for you.
Yu Qingyu stood up.
No need, I can do it myself. Youre not my nanny.
Chu Bai smiled and said.
Then, he went to the kitchen to get himself a bowl of noodles.
What are you looking at?
Chu Bai asked as he walked out with a bowl of noodles.
Someone sent me a message.
Yu Qingyu said.
Then, she handed the phone to Chu Bai.
This is?
Chu Bai glanced at it.
The content of the text message was very simple. She had been targeted by the Dark Tower.
Obviously, it was not just the few people who attempted to kill her that day and knew that she was 17.
Whats going on? What do we do now?
Chu Bai took a bite of noodles and asked.
Im afraid Ill have to go.
Yu Qingyu said.
But the information on this message doesnt seem to have spread to the higher levels, right?
The message basically said that she had been completely exposed. The person who sent the message occupies a higher ranking and who made a move that night. He blocked the message when it got to him.
If Yu Qingyu could go to a certain place that he had set, he could ensure her safety and completely seal off the news so that the higher-ups of the Dark Tower would not know.
The person gave her one day.
I can roughly guess who this person is.
Yu Qingyu said.
Who is it?
ii
I told you before that 1 had a master in the Dark Tower. This person is considered my senior and was taught by my master as well.
Whats the relations.h.i.+p like between you two?
Not very good, Yu Qingyu said. He likes me and has confessed to me more than once, but I rejected him every time.
He doesnt know what you look like, right?
Yu Qingyu nodded.
Chu Bai was speechless.
Wow!
And then love turned into hate?
Yu Qingyu shook her head. It cant be considered love turning into hate. 1 think you should know the reason why he asked me to go over.
Chu Bai nodded.
In other words, if 1 still dont agree, hell kill me or control me. Theres a high chance that hell kill me if 1 dont agree.
Yu Qingyu said.
After all, youre not an ordinary person. Its quite difficult for him to control you.
Yu Qingyu nodded.
And this person is a little perverted. Hell cut off the skin of the people he kills and hide them. Of course, this is only limited to women. Hell even take the initiative to kill people, not just for missions.
Chu Bai frowned.
How is his strength?
Stronger than me. Stronger than the three we encountered before.
But if you kill him, it means that theres basically no one else who knows about your situation, right?
Maybe he wont tell the higher-ups about this, but Im not sure if hell hold back.
Yu Qingyu said.
The people from the Dark Tower naturally deserved to be killed.
Especially this person.
As for Yu Qingyu, although she was also a member of the Dark Tower, her humanity was still there. Perhaps in the eyes of many people, as long as Yu Qingyu was a member of the Dark Tower, she deserved to die.
At least in Chu Bais eyes, it did not matter.
He did not care.
Then lets go together.
Chu Bai said.
Yu Qingyu frowned.
Its quite dangerous. Im worried that he might not be the only one, and
Since hes waiting for me there, then hell be able to make a lot of preparations.
Yu Qingyu said.
Dont forget, were considered experts in Fate. We still have Fates tools.
Chu Bai said.
Hell have one too.
Thats true, but he doesnt know what we can have.
Yu Qingyu bit her lip.
Wait for me for a while. Ill go to the game and see if I can get any useful items. Do you have anything?
Theres an Invincibility Scroll, Yu Qingyu said.
Thats enough! Ill go look for it in the game.
Alright, sorry to trouble you.
Chu Bai smiled.
Then, Chu Bai went online.
After going online, he would be in the Imperial Palace.
Excuse me, where is General Tan?
Chu Bai asked a member of the Heavenly Dragon Army.
The general should be in the main hall. Bai Ye, please wait in the study. Ill report to the general!
The Heavenly Dragon Army basically all knew Chu Bai.
Alright! 111 have to trouble you, then.
Bai Ye, youre too polite!
Then, Chu Bai waited for Tan Tianxing in the study.
There was nothing particularly useful on him.
He could only ask Tan Tianxing for help.
Soon, Tan Tianxing rushed to the study.
Brother Bai Ye! Im sorry, but Ive been in the main hall to understand some things from the ministers.
Tan Tianxing smiled.
Chu Bai stood up and said, Its alright, General Tan. Ive encountered an emergency here. I need your help.
Just say it.
1 wonder if you have any powerful scrolls? Chu Bai asked.
Scrolls with various effects, right?
Chu Bai nodded.
Yes, 1 do. I saw some yesterday when I was packing up the royal familys resources. Ill get them for you later.
Sorry for the trouble!
Tan Tianxing smiled and said, Its a small matter. You dont have to be polite with me!
With that, he left in a hurry.
Soon, Tan Tianxing returned.
Look, what do you think of these?
Chu Bai glanced at them.
Invulnerability Scroll, Dizzy Scroll, Weakening Scroll.
None of them were particularly powerful, but they should be useful.
Is there any with spatial power?
Chu Bai asked.
I happen to have this.
Then, Tan Tianxing took out a bead.
This bead can seal an area. Its strength is relatively high. Heavenly experts can also be sealed for a while.
Chu Bai took it.
This was very useful!
If he could not win, he could at least lock the opponent up and escape.
Right! You can take these two as well. Its useless for me to keep them.
He then handed two beads to Chu Bai.
Theyll explode after being thrown out. The power is very strong, and the range can be more than ten meters.
These were also useful!
Chu Bai took them.
Thank you, General Tan.
Youre welcome. If you need anything, come find me!
He patted Chu Bais shoulder.
Alright! General Tan, you should go ahead and deal with your matters.
Alright!
Then, Chu Bai also left the palace.
After leaving, he went offline.
He appeared beside Yu Qingyu.
It had been a few minutes since Yu Qingyu logged off.
I brought out some equipment from the game. I dont know if theyll be effective.
Yu Qingyu said.
Armor?
Yu Qingyu nodded.
We can definitely see its effects. Your equipments grade isnt low, so it can at least block attacks. However, dont you think itll be very heavy in reality?
Yu Qingyu shook her head. Its alright. It just so happens that my armor isnt too bulky. 1 can cover it with clothes. 1 wonder if itll have a miraculous effect..
