Chapter 90, Part 1: The Hero Who Protected Cangnan
"Wu," Lin Qiye seemed to realize something, looking at Li Jie sitting cross-legged on the ground in disbelief.
If that's the case... then it does explain the current situation.
Seeing Lin Qiye's rapidly changing expression, Chen Muye couldn't help but ask a question.
"What are you thinking about?"
When Captain Chen called him, he voiced his suspicions.
“…”
"You're saying that Li Jie might have fought Loki?"
Lin Qiye nodded.
After a moment of silence, Chen Muyi couldn't think of any possibility that Li Jie could survive a battle against a god.
"It shouldn't be... right?"
"......"
"He did slash the man in the suit with a sword, and the man was also injured."
Just as the two were frantically speculating, a thin figure wearing a hood appeared beside them.
"who!"
Upon hearing a third voice beside him, Chen Muye reacted instantly, slashing at the hooded man with his sword.
However, the latter waved his hand and conjured a longsword of ice, which blocked Chen Muyi's terrifying attack.
"Don't be nervous, Captain Chen, I... I meant no harm."
This voice...
Suddenly, Lin Qiye's eyes lit up.
That's right, the person who came was none other than An Qingyu, the 'Secret Thief' who had been hiding underground in Cangnan.
"Captain, he is the 'Secret Thief'."
Seeing the tense atmosphere between the two, Lin Qiye hurriedly offered an explanation.
"A thief of secrets? We haven't even settled accounts with you yet, and you've already come out looking for death."
Hearing Chen Muye's extremely cold voice, An Qingyu took off her hood and smiled shyly.
"Captain Chen, I am also a member of Cangnan. Shouldn't we be thinking about those mysterious intruders into Cangnan right now?"
He pointed to the powerful, mysterious figure that was about to emerge from the giant magic circle drawn by Loki, and began to speak.
"And... your teammates will be here soon too."
teammate?
Didn't I trick them into coming to the capital?
Is it possible...
"Captain! You big bad guy!..."
"They actually took Qiye to do such a dangerous thing without telling us!"
"you......"
Upon seeing the six figures emerging from the tollbooth, Chen Muyi was speechless for a moment.
"Huh? That's... Li Jie's younger brother?"
"He's back too?"
When Hongying approached, she saw the white-haired boy sitting cross-legged on the ground and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
After the training camp ended, they didn't even have a chance to see Li Jie before he was transferred to Beijing. They just didn't know why Lin Qiye, who was equally outstanding, was left in Cangnan.
They were even planning to report this to headquarters, but Chen Muye stopped them in the end.
"Is this... an injury?"
Wen Qimo squinted at Li Jie, who had his eyes closed and was adjusting his breathing, and a question arose in his mind.
Upon hearing that Li Jie was injured, Si Xiaonan quickly ran to Li Jie's side to check on him.
Not long after, she stood up and shook her head.
"It's not an injury, it's more like he's exhausted. His blood is flowing very fast right now, as if he's just had some strenuous exercise."
Upon hearing Si Xiaonan's words, Li Jie, who was deep in his inner vision recovering his true energy, twitched at the corner of his mouth. This assessment was indeed fair.
However, what she detected was not her own blood, but the true energy flowing wildly through her meridians.
"Strenuous exercise? What did that brat just do?"
Upon hearing this, Old Zhao, who was standing to the side picking his ear, curiously came over as if he had heard some gossip.
Could it be that this little white-haired guy found a girlfriend after leaving the training camp?
Young people...they really don't know any self-control!
"Uncle Zhao, what are you thinking about...?"
Seeing Zhao Kongcheng's obviously misunderstanding expression, Si Xiaonan blushed and said somewhat awkwardly.
"Actually, I didn't do anything..."
Upon hearing Chen Muyi's voice, the members of Squad 136 all turned around and looked at him with confusion.
"He killed a hundred or so frost giants from the 'Chuan' realm, and then fought Loki, the god of mischief."
"Judging from the current situation... that should be the case."
What?
Slaying a hundred and eighty frost giants... and they were all from the 'Chuan' realm?
And he even fought with God?
How did he survive?
Although Chen Muyi didn't quite believe it either, based on the information he had so far, it might actually be true...
"All right!"
Seeing the increasingly surprised expressions on the team members' faces, Chen Muye spoke seriously at the right moment.
"This incident was extremely dangerous. You were transferred away to protect you; this level of combat is not something you can participate in..."
Upon hearing his words, the members of Squad 136 snapped out of their daze and then looked at the serious-looking Captain Chen with disdain.
"Captain, you seem to have made a mistake."
"Ok?"
"Cangnan, you're not the only one protecting us. If we're going to be heroes, shouldn't we be together?"
Wow!
A sudden gust of wind arose, and Chen Muye remained silent for a long time, staring at the six people in front of him who all looked very serious.
A short while later, he let out a heavy sigh.
Very well... then let's become heroes of Cangnan together.
At this moment, Li Jie opened his tightly closed eyes. He looked at the smiling members of Squad 136, stood up, and walked to An Qingyu's side.
"How does it feel? Isn't it great?"
Upon hearing his question, An Qingyu turned her head, a slight smile playing on her lips.
"Indeed, very good..."
Li Jie nodded slightly to him, then spoke to Lin Qiye, who was standing to the side.
"Is everything alright at home?"
Lin Qiye opened his mouth, his heart filled with mixed feelings.
In his attempt to buy himself time to go home and visit his family, Li Jie nearly lost his life.
This made him feel deeply indebted to the latter.
"Thank goodness, brother... are you alright?"
Li Jie shook his head.
"Almost there, but there's no time left..."
As soon as he finished speaking, the two giant magic circles that Loki had drawn earlier began to fluctuate violently.
A giant wolfhound covered in blood and a huge squid emerged from the two magic circles!
The aura emanating from these two 'mysterious' beings had clearly reached the 'Klein' realm!
As they appeared, the remnants of the Frost Giant race, who had been decimated by Li Jie, also emerged from the magic circle behind them.
Feeling the overwhelming and powerful pressure, the faces of the people standing in front of the tollbooth turned ugly.
"Captain...where did all these demons and monsters come from...?"
Old Zhao shakily took out a lighter, tried to light the cigarette in his mouth many times but failed. He then put the lighter back in his pocket and asked Chen Muyi.
"The Hound of the Underworld... Gam... and..."
"Kraken... Kraken..."
