Sequence Beyond: My Wife is a Mysterious Boss

Qian Duo: "..."

As he watched the black-robed man's retreating figure, he instinctively felt a chill rise from the soles of his feet.

That person was standing there, yet he was like a lifeless stone, without even the rise and fall of his breath.

Repressed.

A suffocating sense of oppression.

"His name is Yan," Lin Bai continued. "He'll be going to the front lines with you later."

Qian Duo's mouth slowly opened wide.

"Brother Lin... this... how can I accept this..."

Although he didn't know who this "Rock" was, the fact that Lin Bai had personally arranged it meant that his strength was beyond doubt.

......

Early the next morning.

Pioneers Academy, Central Teleportation Plaza.

The enormous alchemical shuttle, resembling a crouching metal behemoth, was parked at the edge of the plaza.

Thousands of alchemists, who had been conscripted, lined up in silence to board the flying shuttle.

No one spoke; a heavy, oppressive atmosphere filled the air.

Qian Duo followed in the group, occasionally glancing back at "Yan" who was following behind him.

The bigwig remained silent, shrouded in a black robe, like a moving statue.

People around him seemed to sense his aura that kept strangers at bay, and they subconsciously kept their distance from him.

Qian Duo felt a little more at ease.

With such a powerful figure by my side, I feel incredibly safe.

He even had the leisure to start figuring out just how strong this "Rock" really was.

Seventh rank? Eighth rank?

Or... ninth rank?

He dared not think.

Lin Ge's WeChat Moments are terrifying.

Stepping onto the shuttle, the interior space is larger than I imagined.

The densely packed metal seats were already mostly occupied.

Qian Duo found two seats on the side and sat down.

"Yan" sat down next to him, his body straight, his hands on his knees, still motionless.

Qian Duo was restless, feeling as if he were sitting next to a volcano rather than a person.

He wanted to find something to talk about to ease the awkwardness.

"Yan... Brother Yan, would you like some water?" He took out a bottle of water from his storage bracelet.

The man in the black robe did not react.

"How about... we get something to eat?"

Still no response.

Qian Duo awkwardly withdrew his hand.

Fine.

That's how experts are.

She has a strong personality.

Just as he was about to close his eyes and rest, a clear, cold female voice resounded throughout the cabin through amplification.

"Destination for this voyage: Third Theater Command, T-7 forward outpost."

"Estimated sailing time: 22 hours."

"During the voyage, private battles and unauthorized movement are prohibited. Violators will be directly thrown into the spatial turbulence."

A cold voice fell.

The shuttle gave a slight jolt, and the view outside the window began to blur.

The massive metal structure slowly rose into the air, then transformed into a streak of light, tearing through space and disappearing into the horizon.

The space travel has begun.

Lin Bai's consciousness, through the eyes of his power-secret body, quietly observed all of this.

He could clearly sense that tens of thousands of miniature alchemical arrays on the outer wall of the shuttle were operating simultaneously, twisting and folding the space in front of him in an extremely ingenious way.

This technique is completely different from any of the spatial arts he has mastered.

It's become far too refined.

The system of alchemy is indeed all-encompassing.

Lin Bai closed his eyes.

Consciousness sinks into the sea of ​​the mind.

He needs to adapt and get used to this multitasking state.

......

time flies.

The shuttle navigated smoothly through the turbulent air currents.

The cabin was deathly still.

Twelve hours have passed.

Just when everyone was starting to relax.

An unexpected change occurred!

boom--!

A deafening explosion suddenly erupted on the right side of the shuttle without warning.

The entire shuttle seemed to have been slammed down by an invisible giant hand, tumbling and tilting violently!

The piercing alarm instantly resounded throughout the cabin!

The array of runes on the wall flashed wildly, then large sections of them went out!

"Warning! Warning! The ship's starboard flank has been attacked from an unknown location! The space stabilization array is 70% damaged!"

"Warning! Unidentified energy entities are infiltrating the ship's cabins!"

Inside the cabin, chaos reigned.

Screams, curses, and the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground were mixed together.

Qian Duo was thrown off by the immense inertia and slammed his head against the back of the seat in front of him, seeing stars.

He struggled to lift his head and was horrified to see that a huge gash had been torn open in the alloy wall on the right side of the cabin!

A violent spatial turbulence rushed in through the breach!

An alchemist who was nearby was swept into the turbulent current and instantly disintegrated before he could even scream.

And outside that torn gap, in the dark void.

A dozen or so figures, each standing on a flying sword of a different color, hovered silently.

The leader was a middle-aged man with a sinister face. He held a small bronze bell, no bigger than the palm of his hand. Runes flowed on the bell, emanating a chilling aura.

That last move was clearly his doing.

"Alchemists," the middle-aged man's voice wasn't loud, but it clearly reached the ears of everyone in the cabin, "hand over your storage equipment, and then jump off from here yourselves."

"We can spare your lives."

......

Inside the cabin, there was a deathly silence.

The faces of all the alchemists were filled with terror.

Ambushed in the spatial turbulence, the ship was damaged, and the opponent was a Xuanming Realm cultivator known for his combat prowess.

This was a hopeless situation with no chance of survival.

"What to do... what to do..."

"It's over, we're all going to die here."

"Fight them! We won't let these bastards get away with this!"

After a brief silence, several alchemists who appeared to be upperclassmen from the academy, trying to remain calm, began to organize a counterattack.

"Don't panic! Stay calm! Activate the backup defense array!"

"Prepare your attack spells! Heed my command!"

More than a dozen different colored spell lights lit up, converging into a torrent of energy that blasted towards the cultivators outside the breach.

However, the sinister-looking middle-aged man at the head of the group just sneered.

He gently tossed the small bronze bell in his hand.

As the wind blew, Xiao Zhong grew taller, instantly transforming into a figure over three meters tall, hovering in front of everyone.

"clang--"

A dull chime.

Invisible sound waves spread out.

The torrent of energy, which gathered the power of more than a dozen alchemists, dissipated silently the moment it came into contact with the sound waves, just like ice and snow melting away.

Inside the cabin, all the alchemists who were preparing their spells let out a muffled groan, their faces turning deathly pale.

Their mental strength was severely impacted in that instant.

"A bunch of chickens and dogs." The middle-aged cultivator's face was full of disdain. "I'll give you three breaths to consider."

"three."

"two."

An atmosphere of despair instantly enveloped the entire cabin.
