Excessive ferocity due to caution

Chapter 364 The Storm Rises in the "Quarantine Zone"

Wilderness, stone forest.

Luo Qili and Li Liangchao carefully hid in a recessed corner of a stone pillar.

Not moving at all.

"Shouldn't we escape from here?"

Luo Qili was somewhat dissatisfied with Li Liangchao's decision.

They actually had a great opportunity to leave this place, but Li Liangchao chose to stay.

Li Liangchao remained calm in the face of Luo Qili's questioning.

"We don't have a map, only a general direction... we can't go very far."

"Furthermore, the other side doesn't know how many people there are..."

Luo Qili carefully surveyed her surroundings.

Along the way, Li Liangchao did not ask her to use the silkworm silk to set up traps.

The reason is that the silkworm's silk would reveal their tracks.

Without the Heavenly Silkworm Silk, Luo Qili felt that her vision was greatly restricted.

"Isn't Wang Chui fine?"

She asked that question.

Li Liangchao's gaze was sharp as needles.

"Who told you there was no problem?"

Luo Qili:

"Didn't you say before..."

Before she could finish speaking, Li Liangchao interrupted her, saying:

"Zhao Yi was indeed using the opportunity of testing Wang Chui to lower Su Di's guard."

"But the test was also real."

"He killed two birds with one stone."

"The reason I analyzed things that way was because I was inspired by Zhao Yi, and I used my words to lower Wang Chui's guard!"

Luo Qili rubbed her temples.

"Damn it, following you guys makes me feel like an idiot!"

"Are you all like layered cakes?"

Li Liangchao shook his head:

"Big sister!"

"This is an unsolvable dungeon... You didn't actually think the main quest was just about delivering messages, did you?"

"If you're not smart enough, you won't even know how you died!"

Li Liangchao didn't find Luo Qili, a woman with large breasts whose brain and cerebellum were not fully developed, annoying.

It's okay to be stupid, as long as you know how to get by.

What I fear most are certain teammates who are not only stupid, but also act like they're the boss and cause trouble everywhere.

Li Liangchao always kept his distance from such people, afraid of being tainted by their bad luck.

"Oh right... that letter is still on Wang Chui."

Luo Qili said in a low voice.

"If we want to complete the main quest, we must get the letter from Wang Chui!"

Li Liangchao nodded and explained his plan:

"We know this, and Zhao Yi certainly knows it too."

"Given his personality, he would never sit idly by and wait to die."

"Therefore, it's best if we don't act rashly for now. Let's avoid Wang Chui for now, and wait until we find Zhao Yi's whereabouts before we slowly try to get the letter from Wang Chui!"

...

Leave the city.

Sudi, wounded, returned to the city and met the dragon.

The office, built of cement and black bricks, was dimly lit.

Here, the sun is turned away.

There is only one window.

Even on a hot, sunny day, the room is never well lit.

overhead.

The dim light bulb was covered with dust.

The dragon's face, as always, revealed no emotion.

"Is the person dead?"

He asked Sudi, who was standing at the door.

Sudi shook his head, his expression complex.

"Only one was killed; the others escaped."

The dragon slightly raised its eyelids.

"Did they arrive ahead of schedule?"

Sudi shook his head again, stretched out his hand, and revealed the finger that Zhao Yi had cut off.

There are some dense tentacles growing and reproducing on it.

Because they were far from Zhao Yi, the tentacles were not very active and did not actively continue to infect her body.

"He is an infected person... named Zhao Yi."

"He seems to have gained the power of the Forgotten Traveler!"

thirty!

Long suddenly stood up. Although he was still expressionless, his eyes were wide open, staring intently at the whiskers on Sudi's fingers!

"How is that possible..."

"The Touch of Oblivion..."

"The power of the Forgotten Walker can corrupt even gods; how could a mortal possibly obtain its power from the Black Catastrophe?"

Sudi's voice trembled slightly.

"It's hard to believe, but it's true."

"This is the real Touch of Oblivion..."

Long paced back and forth in the cramped office space, his hands behind his back, his tone somewhat urgent:

"Is there any way to find him now?"

Sudi sighed:

"It's difficult..."

"That guy named Zhao Yi is far too astute and vigilant..."

"I've even begun to suspect that his memory hasn't been completely erased..."

Long Huidao:

"Those guys in Pulse City... have been conducting human experiments for more than a year or two, their methods are never wrong."

"But no matter what, such an outstanding infected person will be a huge asset to us... We absolutely cannot let those scum of Pulse City destroy him!"

"Lead Team T immediately and intercept them before they reach the newest Black Disaster testing ground in the east!"

"Then, whenever I had the chance, I told them the whole story!"

"Such a smart person would see the pros and cons!"

Sudi did not agree immediately.

She hesitated and said:

"General Long...aren't we acting a little too soon?"

"They'll definitely have Pulse City military personnel meeting them on their way to the testing ground. If we go with them... conflict is inevitable..."

The dragon stopped at the windowsill, gazing indifferently at the barren land outside:

"It's getting late..."

"Pulse City is the central city of the Human Federation, and it possesses power that you can't even imagine..."

"They can't be completely unaware of the little tricks I've been up to outside the city."

"The reason they haven't touched Licheng is simply because, in their eyes, Licheng is not yet a threat."

"All these years, I've been secretly nurturing you, not so that I could watch you grow strong only to be harvested like leeks by those scum of Pulse City..."

At this point, the dragon turned around.

He stared at Sudi, his gaze extremely serious.

"Eleven years ago, you told me you longed for freedom... But aren't all the others in the city the same?"

"With our current strength, we simply don't have the right to talk about freedom!"

"That Zhao Yi possesses the power of the Forgotten Traveler... He will be our strongest ally and our most impregnable bulwark in the future!"

"Save him..."

"Give it your all!"

Sudi nodded vigorously.

"knew!"

She turned and left, and the dragon slowly closed its eyes.

Inside his chest, he heard his heart, which had been cold and desperate for so many years, slowly regaining its strength...

P.S.: I'll update twice today. Everyone, get some rest.
