Armor Guardians

Chapter 169 Dark Armor
Xia Qianmeng had only become manic and wanted revenge; she hadn't lost control and turned into an irrational human monster. Driven by curiosity, she took the phone from Gao Fei and checked it.

Oh well, she's still just a tough-on-the-outside, soft-on-the-heart little girl.

After witnessing Xia Qianmeng's previous actions, Gao Fei was somewhat afraid that Xia Qianmeng would directly refuse. If that were the case, then Xia Qianmeng might really have no weaknesses. In the end, her family became Xia Qianmeng's weakness.

No, or perhaps it was a sore spot, Gao Fei silently noted these things down.

Xia Qianxue's message wasn't long, and Xia Qianmeng read it all in one glance. Xia Qianmeng, who was usually decisive after waking up, hesitated this time.

Is it a genuine defection or a spy for the Gold Group?

Before Xia Qianmeng could finish hesitating, Xia Qianxue sent another new message.

[My parents also want to go there. Could you help me ask them? They want to make up for the lack of care they've received over the years.]
Are my parents coming too?
Xia Qianmeng stared at her phone screen, unable to make a decision. Her rationality told her that she should refuse. As long as they weren't around, she could do whatever she wanted without considering the consequences.

But why does her heart feel so heavy?
Touching her heart, Xia Qianmeng couldn't understand why she hadn't been injured in the battle, but her heart still felt extremely uncomfortable, and she even felt nauseous.

Suddenly, a black light that seemed capable of swallowing all light burst forth in front of Xia Qianmeng, and then a set of shiny black armor automatically appeared on Xia Qianmeng's body.

(The author's writing skills are insufficient to describe the appearance of the dark armor, so please use your imagination to fill in the blanks, or even share them in the comments section.)
[Armor combination.]
The mechanical voice of the armor automatically appeared in Xia Qianmeng's ears.

Gao Fei had been observing Xia Qianmeng. Upon seeing the suddenly appearing armor, she instinctively took a defensive stance to prevent Xia Qianmeng from being controlled by the armor and suddenly losing her mind. Previously, the summoners of those ferocious beast armors often lost control of the armor and then lost their rationality.

She didn't think she could beat Xia Qianmeng like this, but her intuition told her she had to do something, for herself and for the Black Group. "I see."

Xia Qianmeng's voice came from inside the black armor, and the next second she removed the armor.

Before Xia Qianmeng could react, the Candlelight Armor finally appeared...

"What's happening here?"

Seeing that Xia Qianmeng's voice was fine, Gao Fei gradually lowered her guard and asked Xia Qianmeng curiously.

Xia Qianmeng deactivated the Candlelight Armor again and shared her guess: "The reason I couldn't summon the Candlelight Armor before was because it was helping me refine the energy of those alien beasts inside my body. Otherwise, if that energy stayed in my body for too long, it would cause problems for my body."

"Now?"

"Now everything is fine, and I've even acquired an extra set of armor. It's made from the energy of those mutant beasts, and I'll name it Darkness. I can still use the Candlelight Armor, but it doesn't seem to be very obedient to me anymore. But it doesn't matter; the appearance of a new set of armor saves me the trouble of searching for other armors."

With a quick glance, Xia Qianmeng's attention returned to her phone, and she confidently made her decision: "The Black Team is short-handed anyway. Whether they are genuine or undercover agents, I am not afraid at all."

My new keyboard is arriving tomorrow. What kind of protagonist do you like? Two personalities are okay? Let me know in the comments, and I'll tweak the character design a bit. Hehehe
