Armor Guardians

Chapter 179 Provocation
"I was wondering why I hadn't seen the Xuanwu Armor along the way; it turns out it was here."

Upon seeing Nangong Qingyun clad in the Xuanwu Armor, Gao Fei immediately prepared for battle, assuming that Nangong Qingyun was deliberately guarding the area to prevent them from rescuing the people.

"and many more."

Ye Ying reached out and stopped Gao Fei, who wanted to strike first, and calmly looked at Nangong Qingyun and the three people behind him: "I don't see any fighting spirit in you right now. If I'm not mistaken, you're not here on orders from the Jin Group, but here voluntarily to rescue people, right?"

"Are you here to rescue people?"

"Yes."

Hearing this answer, Nangong Qingyun was somewhat surprised that they were able to arrive here so quickly, but when he thought of Gao Fei's past as a high-ranking member of the Golden Group and her familiarity with everything about the Golden Group, he felt relieved.

Where is Xia Qianmeng?

"She was drawing the attention of the Gold Group from the other side. Let's put it this way, you're the only armor summoner left in the Gold Group right now, which is why we were able to get here so easily."

Ye Ying patiently gave an answer.

"alright."

Nangong Qingyun sighed, then looked up at the surveillance camera: "You can save people, but first take me down."

In order to avoid embarrassing his family, Nangong Qingyun decided that whenever the other party touched him, he would fall down and remove his armor, thus demonstrating that he was neutral rather than hostile.

Ye Ying understood Nangong Qingyun's meaning, and she was very good at rigging matches. Almost as soon as Nangong Qingyun finished speaking, Ye Ying rushed over, her speed leaving afterimages.

Bang!
Ye Ying struck Nangong Qingyun in the chest with a palm strike, making a loud noise but causing little damage. At the same time, Ye Ying even used a clever technique to push Nangong Qingyun away, making it look as if she had knocked Nangong Qingyun away.

The next second, Nangong Qingyun, in a dramatic display, pretended to be seriously injured, crashing into the wall and falling down, before finally removing his Xuanwu Armor...

His acting... was somewhat clumsy, but everyone tacitly refrained from exposing his shortcomings and understood his good intentions.

Upon arriving at Xia Wei, Xu Fangying, and Xia Qianxue's side, Ye Ying quickly removed the devices restricting their physical movements, and then led them away as if the mission was over.

A minute passed...

Two minutes have passed...

Nangong Qingyun lay on the ground listening to the footsteps to confirm that they had all gone far away. Then, he pretended to have great difficulty getting up in front of the surveillance camera.

"Black Tortoise Armor, combine."

[Armor Combination.]

A mechanical voice sounded, and the Xuanwu Armor reappeared on Nangong Qingyun's body. He had already thought of an excuse: after he woke up, he would forcibly summon the Xuanwu Armor, and the powerful force of the Xuanwu Armor would help him temporarily suppress his serious injuries, so that he could move around freely.

While guarding Xia Qianmeng's parents and younger sister, Nangong Qingyun was able to receive orders from his superiors through his earpiece. Therefore, he knew how critical the situation outside was. If the problem with the alien beasts hadn't been unresolved, he felt he would have been able to stay put until someone carried him away.

But right now, dealing with the mutant beasts is the priority.

And so, Nangong Qingyun, clad in Xuanwu armor, left the room and immediately went to the battlefield outside to help.

"How is Qianmeng doing now?"

In the corridor leading to the outside world, Xia Wei noticed that Gao Fei and Ye Ying were walking at a leisurely pace, so he couldn't help but ask them out of curiosity.

"The Gluttonous Armor has reappeared. She led a group representing the Black Group to seize the armor, and in doing so, she also drew away the three armor summoners here." "So, is she now in grave danger?"

"Don't worry, no one knows that little girl's abilities better than me."

Ye Ying said confidently, "It would be impossible for me not to be proud to have taught such a powerful and influential student."

"……hope so."

ah~
With Ye Ying and Gao Fei acting as bodyguards, Xia Wei's group's evacuation went smoothly, and they soon arrived at an exit of the Jin Group's secret base.

Once they got out and traveled a short distance, the three of them would be truly safe. Ye Ying was quite confident in the organization's strength.

It was at this moment that Xia Qianmeng used the communication equipment of the Shadow Group combat personnel on the other side to directly contact Ye Ying's personal equipment. She had trained with the Shadow Group, so Xia Qianmeng was very proficient in using the equipment.

"master."

"How is the situation over there?"

Hearing Xia Qianmeng's childish voice, Ye Ying couldn't help but smile again. If only this apprentice would also be willing to be her daughter.

"I got the Taotie Armor."

Since Ye Ying only wanted the Taotie Armor Summoner, Xia Qianmeng gave a brief report on the result.

The detailed result was that there were too many mutant beasts in the final battle, and her ability was limited. An ordinary person's body could hardly withstand a single attack from a mutant beast. Therefore, she only managed to snatch two of the four armor summoners: one was the summoner for the Teng Snake Armor, and the other was the summoner for the Taotie Armor that the Shadow Group needed.

She met the conditions required by the film group exchange.

“Well done. I’ve already rescued your parents and sister with Gao Fei. We’ll reunite you soon.”

Reunion?
Why do we need to reunite?

Does being rescued necessarily mean a reunion?

Couldn't you just do it for peace of mind?

Xia Qianmeng was about to say something more when she suddenly heard a loud "bang" in her earpiece.

As a professionally trained person, Xia Qianmeng knew exactly what weapon made the sound, and judging from the sound... it was the sound of a target being hit, and it was not far from the earpiece.

Just as Xia Qianmeng had predicted, the next second she heard her parents crying. At the same time, Ye Ying turned off her communication headset and handed it to a helicopter in the sky.

"Come on!"

The sniper from Team Gold didn't even bother to pack up his gear. He immediately told the helicopter pilot to take him away. If Team Leader Wan Qiliu hadn't personally asked him to come and carry out this mission, he wouldn't have done it. It was too dangerous.

Arrogant, too arrogant! Killing the person she was protecting right in front of her! Ye Ying was about to adjust the headset channel to give instructions when Gao Fei, wearing the Youying Armor, was sent flying in the next second.

"Now is not the time for infighting. Dealing with the mutant beasts is the priority. Let me capture this person."

Ye Ying suppressed her anger and continued adjusting her headset: "Send two helicopters directly to my coordinates, and be quick."
