Xu Qian looked up at the window, only to see a large group of people in black rushing towards them.
"Run!"
The three of them quickly ran in the opposite direction, back to the Butterfly Room.
The Butterfly Room was already tightly entangled by mutated vines.
For a moment, they were in a predicament, finding it difficult to enter the laboratory and difficult to retreat.
In comparison, it was better to retreat first.
Xu Qian quickly exchanged a bottle of beginner's potion for Xie Yayun to drink. Wood is not afraid of fire; it's inevitable.
After drinking the potion, Xie Yayun felt her abilities replenish significantly. She gritted her teeth and stepped forward to pull the door open.
Before the mutated vines could emerge, she summoned a huge pillar of fire from her hands, instantly turning the approaching vines to ash.
The three of them struggled through the garden, each using their abilities.
Xie Yayun and Xu Lǜ's faces were pale, their abilities depleted. Xu Qian, however, suffered physical pain.
Xu Qian swiped her card, and the stone gate slowly opened.
The sight of so many people in black made Xu Qian freeze. They really thought highly of her.
It seemed like everyone in black from the R base had come to capture her.
Lian Dou stood at the very front, hands in his pockets, a smile pulling at the corner of his lips.
"Xu Qian, long time no see."
Even though all three were wearing black robes, Lian Dou could still recognize her at a glance.
Xu Qian's expression changed slightly. If Lian Dou could find them in advance, it meant Yi Chun had been discovered.
She shifted sideways and said in a low voice, "No matter what I say or do later, don't interfere. Go first. I'll go in and bring Yi Chun out."
Xie Yayun panicked. How could they abandon her and leave alone?
"Shh, you two, be good."
"As long as we're alive, we don't have to worry about firewood. After I go in, you two rest and figure out a way to sneak in. Lǜ has bombs I left in his spatial ability. Destroy anything that needs to be destroyed, don't let any get away."
Xu Lǜ opened his mouth, unable to refute.
Sister's words always made sense. He could only cooperate, otherwise, Sister would be angry…
"Also, I'll be fine."
"That man, he likes me."
Lian Dou couldn't hear their conversation. He took a few steps forward and teased, "It's useless to say anything now, Xu Qian. Just come with me obediently."
Xu Qian's lips curved slightly. She pulled down the hood of her black robe and removed her mask, revealing her delicate face, like an ice lotus.
"Lian Dou, you win this time."
Lian Dou's heart ached, and he let out a deep sigh.
"Come here."
Xu Qian's eyes flickered, revealing a rare hint of coquettishness.
"No~"
Lian Dou's scalp tingled. He longed to pull her into his arms and never let her escape.
"Let them two go, and I'll go back with you obediently. How about it?"
Lian Dou scoffed. It was no good for her to be so charming.
"No, all three of you must come with me."
Xu Qian lowered her eyelids and chuckled, "Then we can only fight with all our might. Perhaps there's still a chance to escape?"
As the thought flashed through the girl's mind, a Bass knife materialized in her left hand.
The three of them cooperated perfectly, displaying their abilities.
Lian Dou's face darkened, and he said fiercely, "Xu Qian, you're just taking advantage of the fact that I like you!"
The people in black were disgusted by their boss's confession, goosebumps erupting all over them.
The girl turned her face away, not answering.
She was indeed taking advantage of Lian Dou's affection; he simply couldn't bear to see her get hurt.
As long as he was still Lian Dou, she could negotiate.
Lian Dou narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a low voice, "If you don't resist obediently, I'll let them go."
The girl bit her lip, turned, and replied, "Three days."
Lian Dou chuckled, immediately understanding the meaning behind her words.
"Still talking about conditions?"
"One day."
"Five days."
"Deal."
