Chapter 83 You can't go, I won't let you go
"enough."

At this moment, Jiang Nuo suddenly spoke up: "Xuan Yan, since you said you didn't come here to fight, did you come to find me because you know something inside, whether it's about the outbreak of the battlefield or Phil? Explain yourself clearly."

She grabbed Theo's hand, as if turning into a small handcuff, restricting the boy's movements.

This is, after all, a battlefield base, an outer defensive line that has been painstakingly built. If these two males in front of her were to fight here, the destructive power would be immense, and they might even destroy this place.

"Little thing, I..."

Xuan Yan's eyes were serious, and he hesitated to speak.

"Since you won't tell me, then please leave. I don't need anyone making decisions for me under the guise of doing what's best for me." With that, Jiang Nuo turned and pulled Theo out, not wanting to stay there any longer.

To be honest, she didn't completely trust Xuan Yan either. However, since he was the messenger of the Beast God and had come all this way, there must be more to the story.

Watching the two figures leave, Xuan Yan's expression turned melancholy, a sense of powerlessness at things not going as planned.

Outside the medical ward.

When Jiang Nuo and Theo arrived, Ghana was still waiting outside, clearly indicating that Modo had not yet woken up.

Theo pulled the girl to sit down beside him.

We'll ask Phil about his condition after Mordo wakes up.

"Nuo Nuo?"

He gently held the girl's hand, sensing her unease, and comforted her, "Don't worry, since his lieutenant came back alive, Phil should be fine too."

Jiang Nuo pouted her little nose and nodded obediently: "Actually, I was worried about what Xuan Yan said before. He said that you were trying to harm me by dragging me into this."

Upon hearing this, Ghana was filled with resentment. This madman only knew how to sow discord between his master and Miss Jiang Nuo. He was truly despicable!

Theo's eyes widened for a moment, then he slipped his long fingers through the girl's fingers and intertwined them tightly: "Nuonuo just told me that?"

The girl's smile was as gentle as the warm spring sun.

"Hmm." She nodded.

Having confirmed her suspicions at the auction, she would no longer doubt the man before her.

She believed that Theo would not harm her.

Perhaps, as Xuan Yan said, Theo has great faith in his mysterious teacher, but he is most likely being deceived. There are some things he doesn't know either, but the only thing he is certain of is that Theo would never harm himself.

"I'll tell you anything from now on."

At the same time, Jiang Nuo also held the boy's hand tightly.

The man's eyes held a hint of surprise. He leaned forward and lightly touched the girl's lips: "Mmm... Nuonuo, I'm so happy, and I suddenly feel that even if Phil can't be found for the time being, it's not impossible for me to temporarily act as a father to his child."

"..."

The girl's smile froze slightly.

She then playfully punched the man's chest with her small hand. Is this how all men think? Why are their thoughts so jumpy?

She then got back to the point: "I think Xuan Yan is hiding something from us."

Upon hearing Xuan Yan mentioned again, Theo's eyes flashed with hatred: "That's normal. Although he inherited the will of the Beast God, he is bound by the rules and cannot speak out about certain things, otherwise he will suffer a backlash."

"It will also backfire?"

Jiang Nuo never expected the consequences to be so terrible.

Thinking back to how Xuan Yan had never told her the truth despite her repeated questioning, she suddenly felt relieved.

It turned out that Xuan Yan wasn't unwilling to tell her, but rather that there were some things he couldn't tell her.

"This is the price he paid."

Theo said with a deep look in his eyes, "That's why I didn't push him too hard. He can't die, and he can't be crippled, because the position of Beast God's Messenger is rightfully his."

The Beast God Temple wasn't a good place. If Xuan Yan became incompetent, Nuonuo would likely be thrust into the spotlight, something he didn't want to see. "Squeak—"

Suddenly, the door to the medical pod next door opened.

Jiang Nuo immediately stood up and sighed as she looked at the medical staff who came out.

"How about it?"

"Ugh……"

The head medical officer shook his head: "It's terrible. His entire body is covered in lacerations, bites, and scratches, and his skin is ulcerated in many places. Three of his fingers were torn off. Even an ordinary wood-type talent would have a hard time healing them. Vice General Modo has probably been unconscious for a long time. If Mr. Theo hadn't brought him back in time, he probably would have..."

The girl was somewhat moved by what she heard, while Theo, who clearly already knew about Modo's situation, simply sighed and asked, "Has he woken up?"

"He's awake, but still quite groggy. He can be questioned briefly."

As soon as the medical director finished speaking, Jiang Nuo couldn't help but pull Theo inside.

The medical pod was very quiet.

There was only the slight sound of medical equipment operating.

On the hospital bed, Modo lay there, his wounds bandaged, with tubes inserted into his body.

Many of the medical team members were wood-type talents, so some of Modo's minor external injuries had been treated and the bleeding had stopped.

But he was clearly still very weak; he squinted and his breathing was very faint.

"General, general..."

With his consciousness slightly clearer, Modo's lips touched, and he kept murmuring these words.

Jiang Nuo's eyes lit up, and she immediately leaned closer: "Modo, are you talking about Phil? How is he? Do you know where he is?"

Modo's vision was blurred; he couldn't see anything clearly. He could only muster all his strength to say, "Save, save the general... He's surrounded by a horde of savage beasts... The coordinates are... 6,623,748... Go save him quickly..."

Upon hearing the coordinates, the officers and data clerks who had gathered around immediately began to execute the plan. However, after searching, they discovered that it was actually the very center of the desolate star field!

"not good."

A data clerk looked troubled: "At first, we only knew that General Phil lost his signal in the central area, but now even if we know the exact coordinates, it's useless. This place is located in the very center of the storm in the Savage Starfield, which can be said to be the lair of the top savage beast pack! It's too dangerous!"

"..."

The lair?!
Jiang Nuo's face turned slightly pale.

What is Phil going there for?
Moreover, she just heard Mordo say that the savage beasts had surrounded Phil, so Phil...

"Nuonuo, it's okay, don't worry. Don't overthink things before we're sure." Theo embraced the girl's delicate body from behind, offering her support. "If you're really anxious, how about I take some people and go to the coordinates to look for it later..."

"no!"

Jiang Nuo shook her head, her eyes stinging with tears, and turned to hug the boy: "You can't go, I won't let you go."

"Nuonuo..."

"In short, you just can't go!"

The girl's voice was trembling with tears. If Phil was really in mortal danger, she couldn't let Theo go any further into the perilous place!

But what can we do...?

Jiang Nuo suddenly remembered that she could exchange for [Void Essence] in her shop. That item could be used for random teleportation, and could be used to escape if she really encountered danger.

She also has the right to initiate an emergency procedure once without penalty.

"Xiao Cheng, can the items redeemed in the shop be used by other people?"
