Chapter 52

If he had been injured himself, he would never have agreed to let Mibei do such a thing in his place.

Thunder, wide awake, stepped out of the bedroom. He wanted to return to that restaurant, hoping to discover some clues.

Then there was IF2, which could be said to have been formed from the interaction of numerous byproducts left over from the development of IF1. At first, Titanium Industries did not pay it any mind, which is why Sigelid Corporation was the first to master this technology.

After drinking, Xing’er waited nervously for the medicine to take effect. Her heart was pounding uncontrollably; she had no idea what demands Lige would make, nor what further humiliation she would have to endure.

A life had been lost, and the matter had blown up online—his plan to snatch someone amid the chaos could no longer be carried out.

The mobile infantry commissioned for modification by the Ten Cities was an improved version of the old Pioneer model from Section E. It forcibly incorporated the Alph02 system and the Egma Coordination System, enabling a range of new actions. Performance was greatly enhanced, but it still fell short of the current Battle Wolf model used by ROEA.

Yet her reason for coming was simply to let Attorney Zhang understand her feelings, to make her sincerity clear.

Tang Shu leaned against the wall, carrying a bag in both hands, not wanting Su Zhan to know what she was up to for now—until Su Zhan noticed and asked.

On the hospital lawn, the simple musical equipment had already been set up. Xie Zijin was bowing her head, tuning her instrument. Mo Xin, dressed in black, sat behind the drum kit, waving to Lin You and Yin Lele.

Old Ghost seemed nearly suffocated by his predicament, and fate was unkind, for he had ended up inhabiting the mind of a taciturn recluse.

“All right, Brother Qingyan, Sister Xiangjun, please wait a moment!” Su Wanshou called out, then turned and headed into the kitchen.

He was completely unaware of Whitebeard’s death, and did not realize that the sea had changed so much from what it once was. The so-called pirates had either died or been injured; now, it was the era of the navy ruling the seas.

He was already somewhat annoyed, and had always struggled to find a reason to turn her down; now, the opportunity presented itself, and he would not let it go unused.

“How could that be? Owning a bar like this makes you someone truly remarkable. No one would belittle you—it’s just that you hear it and take it to heart.” Out of pity, for reasons she herself did not understand, she offered comfort, unable to bear seeing others saddened.

Wang Dabiao nodded at these words. Even with an admiral of the navy present, his eyes showed not a trace of fear, but were instead filled with fighting spirit.

Yixiao’s eyes may have been blind, but his sense of observation and his aura ranked among the strongest in the world.

Yet after the white thread swept across Rosai’s body, the shimmering green light swiftly restored his form before their very eyes.

She was a Vice Admiral in Navy Headquarters, also known by the code name Peach Rabbit, a candidate for admiral. This status meant she possessed power nearly equal to the admirals themselves; if an admiral’s seat became vacant, she would ascend to that position.

The Han family’s physician had already examined her. The wounds on her back had been cleaned, disinfected, and treated—just superficial injuries, nothing special required. As long as there was no infection or inflammation, it would heal. The doctor’s words calmed Lian Shuo’s anxious heart somewhat.

Sanluo and Beiliang had suffered severe setbacks; it seemed unlikely they would dare provoke again for years to come. Shen Nanyuan thought that once Xiao Yan and Shen Sinian returned, the ministers of the Second Prince’s faction would once again bring up the matter of the wedding at the banquet.

Meanwhile, the “emerald” in the cane glowed faintly, emitting a familiar pull that drew his abilities into the staff.

Xiang’er wasn’t seriously injured either; when she fell, it was the bundle carrying her wedding dress that hit the ground first.

Xiao Han was matchmaking for the first time, and seeing it go well, invited the pair to stay for a meal at the manor.

The battle for rebounds was fierce. Yu Huan had been instructed to go in and grab rebounds. This time, it was Yu Huan who secured the rebound, thanks to Qingqing’s guidance. Yu Huan’s positioning was precise, and after grabbing the board, the Los Angeles Lakers launched a fast break.

His armor was already scarred and battered. If not for the iron plating that protected him, he would have fallen like the rest of the soldiers.

He Qiu looked up to see a young man, about twenty-six or twenty-seven, plain in appearance, smiling at her as he grasped her arm.

Lou Ban dismounted, and under the watchful eyes of the Jinling Army, walked up to Tao Shang’s war horse.

To escape the tiger’s jaws, Yamamoto drew his sword and decided to risk it all. With over five hundred men, they just might be able to take the mine by force.

In that instant, his gaze flickered with surprise, envy, and a hint of murderous intent. Just as he was about to step inside, a tall, muscular man appeared before him.

“East River Army!” The three words made the sailors on the bird ship tense; they knew that if the East River Army came with ill intent, Li Family Village would face disaster.

“Sister is expecting, so let me take care of Father,” the Thirteenth Princess Consort said with a smile.

But Jiang Hongming was the Second Prince. If he didn’t fight with all his might in the Azure Dragon contest, it would be inexcusable.

A spiderweb several meters wide shot out, targeting Mentor Haoyue, who was already poisoned.

Sasuke looked coldly at the sudden appearance of the Kai Squad. To encounter them here at this time was quite unexpected.

At that moment, even Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo glanced at Elder Snake differently.

If it were directly refined, it could even replace the inner world, allowing an ordinary gene to transcend in an instant and become a kingly gene.

Gulu Shou, who narrowly escaped death, was stunned for a long time before regaining her wits. Shakily, she climbed to her feet, gazed for a long time at the spot where Shen Mo had departed, steeled herself, and hurried off.

“Chihuo’s soul is a blazing fox. His talent is exceptional, and his comprehension is the best Qingyan has seen in a thousand years.”

At that moment, the once noisy square fell utterly silent; all the students held their breath, staring in terror at the man on the podium, cursing him in their hearts as a “madman” and a “scumbag.”

Zhao Fu collected money from them, partly to strip them of their possessions and partly to pressure them into joining Great Qin. This method was gentler than forcing them outright; those willing to pay stayed, those unwilling or unable left, further dividing the group.
