Chapter 443: Guarding

In the dark room, Bai'e sat cross-legged, with his hands in front of his chest, practicing psychic energy.

Although the battle against the intelligent machine army was fast, the consumption of psychic energy was extremely terrifying.

In order to achieve a quick victory, Bai'e burst out the highest psychic energy output efficiency throughout the whole process.

Compared with the last time cleaning the factory, it was certainly not so tiring and thorough, but it was also a great pressure on his spirit.

From the moment the battle ended until now, Bai'e had to bother to deal with other characters. Until now, he had a little chance to recuperate and breathe.

The increasingly powerful psychic energy gradually condensed and grew stronger in the process of rising and falling. Under the premise of being able to actually feel this power, each practice can have a new feeling.

During the practice, the "Sky Eye" attribute also pays attention to all changes within a certain range around it, just like having countless pairs of eyes watching the entire 360-degree space around it at the same time. Any subtle changes can hardly escape Bai'e's eyes.

So the slight wriggling of the black shadow in the corner naturally made Bai'e frown slightly while closing his eyes and regulating his breath.

The door was closed, but Bai'e still looked coldly at the darkness diagonally opposite the room and asked in a cold voice: "Who?"

"Can you find me?" A familiar voice with a little curiosity sounded, and a not-so-bright soft light rose from the corner, and a slender black-robed figure leaned against the wall with her arms folded.

"Sister Yueying?" Bai'e's voice was slightly surprised.

He hadn't seen Yueying since he came back, and now he knew that she was still by his side, and he couldn't help but feel more relieved.

Those people in the barracks might support protecting themselves when they were deceived by their appearance, but once they realized that they had another self-personality that they didn't know, those people might not support protecting themselves.

Even including Helen now... The other party's attitude was unclear, and the two only maintained a fragile tacit cooperation.

Once his performance did not meet the other party's unpredictable expectations, it was still unknown what decision the other party would make.

When facing all of them, Bai'e needed to maintain a complete disguise and be vigilant at all times.

Only when facing Yueying could he let down his guard and disguise a little.

Feeling Bai'e's heartfelt joy and the slightly intimate name, Yueying's mouth corners unconsciously curled up slightly, "Are you okay? I heard that they brainwashed you? At that time, I saw that they had no intention of causing harm to you, so I didn't force myself to come forward."

"No." Bai'e put down his crossed legs and got off the bed. "I don't know why the academician of the research institute didn't brainwash me, and he also promised to help me cover up."

"Well..." Yueying frowned like a willow leaf, with a solemn expression, "You humans do have a lot of little thoughts, and I can't help you with this. Just be more careful."

"Hmm." Looking at Yueying who didn't plan to say anything else in the corner, Bai'e hesitated and took the initiative to speak, "Sister Yueying, can you do me a favor?"

Yueying replied in a brisk tone: "You say."

"You should know that the black street outside the military camp is under my care under normal circumstances, but I have been under house arrest recently. And as far as I know, there is a force from the outer city that is eyeing the black street. I am afraid that the other party will cause harm to the black street. I hope that sister, you can take care of it a little bit during this period of time."

The forces in the outer city are nothing more than the doctor in Gray Iron City and his men.

Not to mention that the black street itself may not be peaceful. The devil is omnipresent, and the war gangs in other parts of the city are always coveting every profitable area.

The dangers in this world are never only in the wild.

In normal times, I can run around with the medal of leaving the camp at any time.

Now... the medal of leaving the camp was stripped away as soon as I returned to the camp. In the foreseeable future, I probably can't get out of the sight of the monitors in the military camp.

In this situation, Bai'e had to find help.

As for those players... they were already on the right track, so they would fend for themselves. I probably wouldn't lose their trust completely if I didn't give them tasks for a while.

Bai'e believed in the creativity of these players. They were the biggest variable in the world.

"Okay." Yueying agreed without hesitation.

She knew that Bai'e had a close relationship with the Black Street, and she had always been curious about what Bai'e was doing behind the scenes.

But Bai'e didn't say it on her own initiative, so she didn't ask on her own initiative.

Now that she has the qualifications to intervene actively, she is quite happy in her heart.

'I'm sorry, sister. '

Under normal circumstances, she couldn't intervene in human affairs on her own initiative. This was an agreement between her and her sister when she left the elf settlement. Now she was entrusted by someone, so there was nothing she could do.

"Then I'll leave first if it's okay." Yueying said calmly, turning her toes slightly.

"Well... I'm fine."

"Okay."

...

Outside the Black Street, several pairs of cold eyes stared at the quiet gathering place of humans in the distance.

The town was quiet in the early morning, and the sun had not yet risen. This was the darkest time of the day.

"The doctor has been waiting here for too many days. He is not usually such an indecisive person..."

"Is it so difficult to catch a Zero? This is not the first time to catch her."

"Don't you think... the doctor's attitude towards this gathering place is a bit special?"

"It's not so much the attitude towards this gathering place that is special, but the attitude towards No. Zero... This is the first force that can completely suppress No. Zero's desire to 'eat people'. You can guess what the doctor is thinking... arrive."

"We can't let the doctor continue to waste time here. Gray Iron City is still waiting for the doctor's leadership. I heard that during the time we left Gray Iron City, a lot of changes took place in the city. While we are away, even Someone is starting to rebel against the city’s rules!”

"How about... let's help the doctor make a decision. Isn't it just a small gathering place? Let's just snatch Zero back. The convoy hiding Zero has returned, and I saw it early in the morning. "

"Are you sure? Their leader is not easy to deal with...I heard from the other brothers that the leader captured an entire omnic factory by himself, which is the small factory in the west of the city. The brothers looked at that from a distance The leader was almost shot through the head at a glance. If he hadn't ducked in time, the grass on his grave would have been one meter high."

"Leader?" One of the figures in the black leather jacket sneered, "He has already fallen."

"My brother and I have been staring at the military camp... Last night, a mecha was dispatched and left the camp in an emergency. The military district immediately sent people to chase it as if it had exploded. When I came back, I took a look and saw that the mecha was flying without authorization. The one who left the camp was the so-called leader. That guy didn’t have a high status in the military area, so he’s probably been killed.”

"you sure?"

"If you don't kill him, he will definitely have to shed a layer of skin. Isn't it just for us as doctors to investigate this guy? Now that this guy can't protect himself, what's the need for investigation? Why don't we kill him first and then report it, and just kidnap No. 0 back?"

"Real kidnapping, fake kidnapping?"

"What a kidnapping!"

"You all agree?"

"agree!"

"agree!"

"I agree! You can't let the doctor continue to waste time here anymore. The doctor is the pioneer of mankind. How can a mere Zero deserve to take up so much of the doctor's mind? Even if he goes back and is punished, I will admit it! Do it!"

"Then do it!"

Several dark figures took advantage of the darkness and sneaked towards the gathering place of still sleeping humans.

After long-term observation, this human gathering place was full of loopholes in their eyes.

Except for their leader and the little girl from the arbitration office who occasionally came over to hang out, everyone else was a rotten fish.

As long as they avoid these two people, they will kill the entire black street, and there will probably not be any news of them escaping for a while.

On the contrary, he wanted to kidnap Zero or force him back, which would cause even more noise.

But it doesn't matter, for the sake of the doctor...this risk can be completely ignored.

So what if there is some movement, as long as the leader is not there...

"Hey! Are you from the underworld?" Several dark figures who were moving through the shadows suddenly heard a question without any emotion.

Following the sound, a slender figure hidden under a black cloak was leaning in a dark corner not far away.

Several figures in black leather jackets looked at each other silently, "There are many secret whistles in the dark streets..."

One of the strong men with a somewhat manic personality looked at the shadow with a ferocious smile, "Originally we didn't plan to kill anyone, so you're in trouble, little girl."

The more cautious black leather-clad warrior reacted somewhat, "That's wrong, why didn't we notice..."

In the peripheral vision, a sword light that cut through the ray of time from heaven and earth struck instantly, accompanied by a female voice whispering to herself, "No wonder he said there are many bad guys staring at the dark streets..."

"puff!"

A sword pointed at the head.

There was only one soldier whose chest and ribs were connected into a piece of plate armor with some fascia still attached to his body. He looked in the direction of Yueying with horror in his eyes, "How...how could..."

How could there be such a powerful master hiding here in the underworld?

Why didn't they find any trace of this master's existence?

How could there be so many extraordinary masters in a small gathering place outside Blackwater City?

It's a pity that no one can answer his question.

Even this question could not really be uttered.

Yueying rubbed the hilt of the sword in her hand, feeling a little annoyed.

I haven't taken action for many days, why can't I kill someone with one sword?

"rub!"

The long sword was unsheathed again, and another sharp sword light struck the exact same wound.

As long as no one can tell that he used two swords, he still only used one sword...

"Bang bang bang!"

Several lower-body corpses that were cut into two pieces lost control of their own will and slowly fell from the spot, hitting the ground and throwing up a cloud of dust.

Yueying held the sword and left, found the highest point in the center of the black street, and sat cross-legged on it, her breath melting into nature.

'I want to see how many bad guys are watching this place. ’

Looking around indifferently, Yueying's eyes closed gently.

At the same time, psychic will envelopes all directions...

…

"Bo...Doctor..." A slightly frightened voice woke up the sleeping doctor.

"What's the matter?" The tall doctor sat up from the simple bed and asked softly with a pair of cold eyes looking at the black leather-clad warrior who came to report.

"Xiao Qi...Xiao Qi and the others are dead."

"Dead?" The doctor's eyes narrowed, "Who did you offend?"

"No... I don't know." The soldier who came to report swallowed his saliva, his eyes full of fear, "The bodies were found not far from the black street, a total of six brothers... were... chopped by one sword."

"One sword?"

The soldier nodded, his tone was difficult, "One sword... six."

What kind of strength is this?

I dare not even think about it.

Even if the real bodies of those demon princes come to the world, they will probably perform like this, right?

"..." The doctor frowned deeply and did not say anything for a long time.

Not the leader he knew well!

Behind that so-called leader, there is actually a master?

He couldn't think of any familiar existence at this level of strength.

The Empire God of War? That's not in Blackwater City either...

Besides, that muscle guy can only rely on his savage body to charge without thinking. When did he learn swordsmanship, a skill that is unorthodox to him?

When did humans have such a level of existence? He actually knew nothing about it... and it was actually near that black street?

More importantly...

"Who let them get close to the Black Street?!" The doctor's face was furious, like a beast that was choosing its prey.

"They...they...some brothers heard that they were planning to take Zero back directly..."

"Bang!" The doctor slapped the table, his hair and beard standing up in anger, "Let everyone get back! Pass my order down, no one is allowed to get close to the Black Street without permission before finding out the situation of the Black Street, and the violator will be beheaded!"

The reporter lowered his head suddenly, trembling all over, "Yes! Doctor!"

Walking out of the dark sewer entrance, the doctor looked far away at the human gathering place that had just awakened in the morning light.

The morning sun sprinkled on the tops of those roofs, reflecting a dazzling golden light.

The energetic voices rang from all around the Black Street, and the doctor rubbed his cheeks, changing his facial expression from stiff indifference to a smile like a good old man.

It was dawn, and it was time to work again.

"What a wonderful day..."

Carrying his hoe, the doctor walked back to the Black Street from outside. He greeted the familiar residents of the Black Street along the way.

"Good morning, Uncle Wang."

"Good morning, Aunt Wang."

"Is Li Dan'er still asleep?"

Occasionally, when there was no one around, a pair of cold and sinister eyes looked at every dark corner of the Black Street, as if there were some insidious beasts hidden deep inside, waiting for every ignorant person to fall into the cage of the Black Street.

...

"Yawn~" At the gate of the military camp, the officer in uniform who had just yawned with his mouth wide open turned around and greeted the soldiers guarding the gate with a smile, "Hi~Good morning! Haven't you changed shifts yet?"

Looking at the back of the officer walking away towards the Black Street, the guard at the gate touched the back of his head in confusion, "When did Chief Ge Lan become so easy to talk to?"
