Knights: The journey of support starting with Faiz

A dazzling light burst forth from Jiang Ye.

In the light, a brand new, special buckle slowly emerged.

The buckle is brownish-brown and covered with rustic patterns.

The center is inlaid with a lifelike hexagonal dragon totem 2.3, exuding an ancient and mysterious aura.

In a hidden corner of the battlefield, Jiang Ye crouched down.

By the moonlight, I carefully examined the Millennium Worm Energy Bottle in my hand, which shimmered with a faint blue light.

The flowing light patterns on the bottle twisted and turned, casting tiny spots of light onto his palm.

After discovering that the energy bottle could block surveillance from people in the future, his doubts grew stronger.

This seemingly ordinary device clearly hides a deeper secret.

"Simply blocking surveillance is too wasteful."

Jiang Ye gently tapped the bottle with his fingertips; the metallic clanging sound was exceptionally clear in the silent battlefield.

Chapter 267: Grilled Fish

He recalled the moment he activated the energy bottle.

The wish driver fluctuated abnormally, and suddenly the pupils constricted.

Try bringing the energy bottle close to the driver; the pale blue light intertwines with the driver's data stream.

The originally cold, mechanical voice suddenly became distorted and eerie.

"Permissions...Rewriting..."

As the light intensified, the long-dormant power of light within Jiang Ye's body surged forth like a dragon awakened, flowing through the driver's pathways.

Brownish-brown patterns spread across his body, and a six-horned dragon totem materialized from the void.

Ultimately, it transforms into an upgraded buckle of the earth, gleaming with an ancient luster.

Feel the wonderful resonance with the land beneath your feet.

Jiang Ye realized that this energy bottle was not only a tool for interference, but also a key to unlocking the shackles of his own power.

"What if people from the future discover it..."

Jiang Ye's expression hardened, and he put the energy bottle into his pocket.

He suddenly recalled the crazy way Sento disassembled and modified props with his bare hands in the lounge, and a bitter smile crept onto his lips.

"Perhaps we can attribute it to War Rabbit's 'scientific modification,' after all, his inventions have long exceeded the bounds of common sense."

Just as Jiang Ye was pondering a solution, hurried footsteps came from afar.

Jinghe waved his mud-covered arms, his face beaming with excitement.

"Brother Jiang Ye! I just took down five evil demons in one go! And..."

He mysteriously pulled out a string of fish from behind his back, the fish tails still swaying.

"I caught some fish by the river, let's grill them and eat them!"

Jiang Ye looked into Jing He's bright eyes, and her tense nerves relaxed.

The rare sight of human warmth on the battlefield startled him, and he nodded.

"Okay, let's find a safe place."

The two arrived at the riverbank, where the afterglow of the setting sun turned the water golden.

Jiang Ye skillfully prepared the fish with a dagger, her movements fluid and graceful. Jing He squatted to the side, watching intently.

"Brother Jiang Ye, how come you can do everything?"

"I learned a lot of survival skills when I was on missions in the wild."

Jiang Ye skewered the prepared fish onto tree branches and lit the firewood that had been prepared beforehand.

The flames licked the fish, quickly releasing an enticing aroma.

He handed the grilled fish to Jinghe, and as he watched the boy wolf it down, a smile involuntarily crept onto his face.

This tranquility did not last long.

When the two returned to the lounge, the scene before them made their hearts skip a beat.

Miyin collapsed onto the metal floor, her pale face covered in cold sweat, and the bite mark on her shoulder gleaming a terrifying purple.

"Miyin!"

Jinghe rushed forward, wanting to help her up, but was stopped by Fushi Eiji.

The fox crouched down, its fingertips glowing with blue light as it scanned the wound.

"It's a zombie virus; she's already infected."

Mo Tian stood to the side with his arms crossed, a malicious smile on his face.

"I've said it before, being soft-hearted on the battlefield is tantamount to suicide."

His words were interrupted by Sento's angry roar.

"Shut up!"

The brilliant physicist had already pulled out a modified water gun/medical strap, and the water flowed into a pale green healing energy, wrapping around Miyin's wound.

"This can only temporarily suppress the spread of the virus."

Sento's eyes were full of anxiety.

"To completely eradicate it, we must find the virus's core code."

Miyin weakly grasped Jinghe's hand, her voice barely audible.

"I'm sorry... I've dragged everyone down."

Jinghe shook his head, his eyes red, and held her hand tightly.

"Don't speak, we can definitely cure you!"

Jiang Ye stood on the periphery of the crowd, his gaze fixed on Mi Yin's wound.

He recalled the Millennium Bug Energy Bottle's interference driver capabilities, and a bold idea flashed through his mind.

But seeing Sento's focused healing, he silently placed his hand on the pocket 160 where the energy bottle was hidden.

We must not reveal this secret without being absolutely certain.

The atmosphere in the lounge was extremely oppressive. A holographic projection of a futuristic figure flickered on the dome, accompanied by a cold, mechanical voice.

"The infected person, Miyin, will complete the mutation in 24 hours. During this period, other contestants can choose to continue treatment or... be eliminated from the infected person early."

"impossible!"

Ryu slammed his fist into the wall, the metal clanging with a piercing sound.

We will never abandon any of our partners!

Hidetoshi Ukiyo got up and straightened his collar.

"First, stabilize her condition. I'll go gather intelligence about the zombie virus."

He glanced at the War Rabbit.

"Continue to research treatment options, and just let me know what you need."

During halftime of the match, Ryuga, Sento, and Eiyo returned to that familiar coffee shop.

Chapter 268: Enough is Enough

The coffee shop's wooden signboard swayed gently in the breeze, and some cracks from the last battle still remained on the glass windows.

However, it did not affect the rich aroma of coffee that filled the room.

The three pushed open the door, and the doorbell rang crisply, as if welcoming their return.

Ryu slumped down on the sofa in the corner, the metal wristbands hitting the table with a dull thud, his face full of displeasure.

"That bully is too arrogant! He actually dared to openly provoke me on the battlefield. If it weren't for the rules of the competition, I would have knocked him down with one punch!"

He complained bitterly, his chest heaving violently, his eyes burning with anger.

Zhan Tu casually placed his toolbox on the table, the parts clanging together, and a mocking smile appeared on his lips.

"Hey, Ryuga, I didn't expect you to be able to control your temper now. This is not like you at all."

Ryuga glared at Sento and retorted loudly.

"I'm not a brainless brute! I know the rules of the game and I won't act impulsively."

But that guy's attitude was simply unbearable!

"Alright, alright, don't get so angry that you hurt yourself."

As Jiang Ye spoke, he skillfully walked to the coffee machine and began grinding coffee beans.

The rich aroma of coffee gradually filled the air, soothing everyone's restless emotions.

Long Wo seemed to remember something, and suddenly rolled up his sleeve, revealing a scabbed wound on his arm.

"Speaking of which, I was bitten by a demon during the battle, but the wound actually healed on its own. Isn't that strange?"

Upon hearing this, Sento immediately moved closer, his eyes filled with curiosity.

He carefully examined the wound, gently touching the scab with his fingers.

"There were no signs of infection around the wound, and the healing speed was far faster than normal..."

Excitement gleamed in his eyes.

"Longwo, your vampire constitution might make you immune to the Demon Cult virus, and you might even be able to use the virus as nourishment!"

Jiang Ye also came over, looking intently at Long Wo's wound, and nodded in agreement.

"Zhan Tu is right. Judging from the current situation, this is very likely."

Upon hearing this, Longwo immediately perked up and burst into triumphant laughter.

"Hahahaha! I knew it! My body isn't just for show! Looks like I have another advantage when facing demons in the future!"

"War Rabbit reminded me seriously."

"Don't get too excited yet. Although it seems like a good thing now, no one knows if there will be any side effects. You still need to be careful and pay close attention to any changes in your body."

Long waving his hand dismissively.

"Okay, okay, don't be such a spoilsport!"

At this moment, Jiang Ye took out the Earth Upgrade Buckle from his pocket.

The earthy brown texture on the buckle surface has a mysterious sheen under the light.

The six-horned dragon totem in the center seems to contain endless power.

Sento's eyes lit up, like a child who had discovered a treasure, and he grabbed the buckle in his hand.

"This is... a new buckle? It looks unusual! Could it be related to the Fire Angel Energy Bottle?"

Jiang Ye nodded and explained.

"You guessed right. After the Fire Angel's energy shattered, it reformed in this way. This Earth Upgrade Belt is its new form."

Zhan Tu played with the buckle with great interest, muttering to himself.

"This is amazing! The energy fluctuations and the unique structure..."

Jiang Ye, seeing Zhan Tu's excited expression, gave him a reminder.

"War Rabbit, the power of this buckle is too peculiar. If we use it, it may attract the attention of people from the future and cause unnecessary trouble."

War Rabbit raised its head.

"I see.

But I'm willing to take on any trouble to find a way back.
