Chapter 2270: Large-Scale Arrest Operation! Begin
Wu Liang's "Diss you, I'll fight you" landed on Jiu Lan. Under the effect of the taunt skill, everyone became even angrier!
Without a word, they raised their fists and struck at Jiu Lan!
Jiu Lan's time was frozen, all her bodily functions came to a halt. She couldn't release her Stygian energy or domain at all!
Mi La struck sneakily, disregarding martial ethics. It could be said that from the moment Mi La made the first move, Jiu Lan was already doomed!
She had a full set of skills but couldn't use them!
Then a series of "clang clang clang" sounds of metal being struck came, accompanied by crisp bone fracture sounds!
After a chaotic flurry of punches, Zhong Yingxue, Xia Yao, Wu Liang, Xiong Er, and the others—their fists, along with their arms, all broke!
Lan clutched her arm, her little face scrunched up in pain, hopping in place!
(∗ᵒ̶̶̷̀～˂̶́∗)੭
Qian Benying looked at her severely deformed fist, her eyes twitching:
(∗☍﹏⁰) "What kind of freakish physical constitution is this, hey?!"
It was like hitting iron!
The Netherworld race possessed the strongest physical constitution below the stars, and Jiu Lan was among the best of them, even without using skills to defend!
Just in terms of pure physical fitness, she was still much stronger than the team members!
After one round of group beating, they didn't do much to Jiu Lan, but the team members themselves ended up with fractures!
Mi La pouted: (◦`~´◦) "This stinky woman is pretty tough! No wonder she could beat Jiangnan Gege like that! Restore!"
A restoration beam smashed down, and the injuries on everyone immediately healed!
They got even angrier!
Jiu Lan: !!!
Jiangnan Gege? These humans know Jiangnan? Such an intimate address—could they be his teammates or something?
Are you all misunderstanding something?
I'm one of you! One of you, hey! I'm a hostage!
But no matter how anxious Jiu Lan was, under time freeze, she couldn't even speak!
Zhong Yingxue squinted! "Boom!" With a sound, she instantly transformed into a plasma state!
Her fists fell on Jiu Lan like raindrops, it could be said she was being ruthless!
Before her fists even landed on Jiu Lan, they had already burned her. Every time a fist landed, a scorched fist mark appeared on her body!
Even though Jiu Lan's physical constitution was strong enough to swim in the core of a star and do sit-ups on a neutron star!
But now, Zhong Yingxue's flame temperature far exceeded the sun's core!
"Wu Liang!"
Wu Liang grinned fiercely:
(｡•益•｡ꐦ) "Got it! Dare to beat my Nan Ge until he's covered in blood? Today, I'll show you what a lethal iron fist is!"
At this moment, golden divine patterns bloomed on Wu Liang's hands, and the aura emanating from his body was even more terrifying than Zhong Yingxue's and Xia Yao's!
A layer of golden divine light covered his fists as he hammered heavily onto Jiu Lan's body!
"Clang!"
A crisp sound of metal striking metal came, and Jiu Lan was directly punched by Wu Liang until she vomited blood!
In terms of pure strength, Wu Liang's hands even surpassed Jiu Lan's!
At this moment, all team members did their best to output, venting anger for Jiangnan. If physical constitution wasn't enough, they used spiritual skills!
Lan used spatial bounce to make gauntlets to strike, Xia Yao used the paralysis ring to poke Jiu Lan endlessly, crazily paralyzing her!
Qian Benying slashed with spatial blades, Olivia used atomic collapse!
There was no shield that couldn't be broken! Even if Jiu Lan's physical constitution was strong, she couldn't withstand such a beating, right?
Xing Cheng opened her big mouth and bit down on Jiu Lan's head, causing Jiu Lan's face to bleed!
Jiu Lan felt so aggrieved! She had been swollen several times over, completely turning into a bloody gourd!
Stop hitting! I'm on your side, hey! You're really going for the kill!
What did I do to you all? Do you all have this many special moves?
That one-eyed girl wasn't wrong—I really did have a great misfortune! This was simply the worst luck ever!
Zhong Yingxue hit while speaking:
(∗❛ั～❛ั) "Everyone be careful! Don't kill her. Let's vent for Xiao Nan first!"
"After all, she's a member of the Netherworld race, holding a high position. Keeping her as a hostage might have unexpected effects!"
"A dead hostage is useless!"
But before everyone could nod, Mi La said fiercely:
(͡°～͡°) "It's fine to kill! I'll just bring her back!"
"If we don't kill her ten or eight times, how can we make up for the suffering Jiangnan Gege endured because of her beating?"
Everyone thought, "Hmm, that makes sense!"
Jiu Lan: (##ᵒ̶̶̷̀)3(˂̶́##) ???
You want to kill me ten or eight times?
Repeatedly die? Do you have to be this ruthless? That blond little girl doesn't seem like a good person!
And why am I a hostage again, hey!
This group beating lasted for a full thirty minutes. During that time, Jiu Lan's resentment value was maxed out!
Although she knew they must have misunderstood, she had no chance to explain!
She was beaten to the brink of life and death several times, but she didn't dare die!
The blond little girl said she could bring her back, but what if she actually died?
She didn't dare test it, so she just endured the beating!
After half an hour, everyone looked at Jiu Lan, who had been beaten to look no different from Jiangnan in the photo, and their anger subsided a bit!
Lan pulled a dull sack out of the alternate dimension:
(*⁰̷̴◠⁰̷̴) "Let's stop here for now. Put her in the sack and carry her with us. We can beat her again later!"
Everyone nodded: "Let's find Xiao Nan first and let him decide how to handle it!"
Lan grinned and called out:
(๑◔◡◔ิ) "Jiu Lan?"
At the same time, Mi La withdrew the time freeze orb!
Jiu Lan squinted. Opportunity!
(#)ᵒ̶̶̷̀口˂̶́(#) "I... ya!"
Before she could unleash her skill, Xia Yao's paralysis ring had already poked her. Jiu Lan screamed, and the logo on the dull sack lit up!
Lan waved her little hand: "Spatial Rubik's Cube!"
Jiu Lan's body was instantly displaced and stuffed into the sack. The sack's mouth tightened!
Inside the sack, Jiu Lan struggled nonstop. Finally able to speak, she shouted:
(#)꒦ິ皿꒦ີ) "Misunderstanding! It's a misunderstanding! I'm one of you!"
"What skill is there in a group beating? If you've got guts, let me out and fight me one-on-one! Believe me, I'll beat you all until you have bumps all over your heads!"
"Jiangnan! Damned Jiangnan! I'm so unlucky! Don't let me out, or you're all done for!"
[Resentment value from Jiu Lan +1010!]
[Resentment value from Jiu Lan...]
But no matter how Jiu Lan struggled or yelled, her voice couldn't get out!
Wu Liang watched the dull sack squirming and immediately said: "Still moving? We hit too lightly! Damn it! We'll teach her a lesson next time!"
Jiu Lan: ~%?…;#*'☆℃$!
After finishing off Jiu Lan and venting their anger, everyone ran out of the dimension gap!
They decided to go to Haitang Mining to ask about the situation. Boss Pang was over there, and they heard he had recently taken over a mining area!
He would definitely know about Jiangnan's situation!
But as soon as they came out of the dimension gap, they heard the piercing alarm sound in the North Crown Star Capital. Red lights were flashing everywhere!
Outside the star capital, thick Star Chain energy shields had risen!
They enveloped the entire star capital. Activating this level of energy barrier consumed massive amounts of energy every second!
If not for a major event, it would never be activated on a normal day!
The terminal building was now jam-packed!
They could faintly see a massive number of armed fleets initiating warp jumps, heading into deep space!
Wu Liang was stunned. He caught an unadorned elder brother who was rushing away and asked, "Brother? What's going on? Why is the alarm sounding?"
The elder brother said urgently: "Still asking what's going on? Run! The Sacred Law Council has confirmed the Jiang Devil's location at the 666 mining area!"
"The North Crown Order Maintenance Troops and the Decree Troops have already deployed there to arrest the Jiang Devil!"
"But the Jiang Devil has no intention of retreating into the dimension gap. He's probably going to fight. Who knows what it'll turn into shortly!"
"To prevent the Jiang Devil from tearing down the North Crown Star Capital, they've activated the Star Chain energy wall. They've initiated the highest wartime alert! Hurry up and retreat! You... *gasp*"
Before the elder brother finished speaking, he trembled as he looked at the humans' identities!
These people—he seemed to have seen them on a live stream before?
Startled, he turned and ran, his speed leaving afterimages!
Zhong Yingxue, Xia Yao, and the others exchanged glances, their expressions darkening!
"Let's go! Help!"
With that, Qian Benying teleported everyone away with a single movement!
Meanwhile, at the 666 mining area on Haitang Star!
The Bully Gang members, with nothing else to do after eating, gathered in a group to play poker!
Taro, with his three heads, could play by himself. They were having a good time!
Jiangnan was a bit puzzled. What was happening? Why had Jiu Lan given him so much resentment value?
He hadn't done anything wrong to her, right?
But obviously, the mission was complete. Xuan Se had just contacted him through the snail shell!
He had already told him exactly what to do. They just had to wait for the result!
But Jiu Lan still hadn't returned. Had she gone to contact the Netherworld race's pursuit team?
Just then, Wang Youzhi, who had been holding back laughter, could no longer contain himself!
(´థꇴథ)σ "Ah hahahahaha!"
He burst out laughing, even crying tears of laughter, clutching his stomach and rolling on the ground!
He slapped his thighs, even hitting Suo Na's back. When the laughter got too intense, he tore Suo Na's short sleeve!
Suo Na: (≖_≖)...
Jiangnan was confused: (๑•̌.•̑)ˀ̣ˀ̣ "Da Zhi? What's so funny? Hurry up and tell me, so I can be sad about it too?"
Wang Youzhi clutched his stomach:
(´థжథ) "Pfft... You'll know in a bit. It should make you very sad!"
Jiangnan: ???
Just as Jiangnan was puzzled, a red laser shot from outer space, straight into the banquet hall!
It was clearly urgent. The one who came was Omega!
(งᵒ̌口ᵒ̌)ง "Holy crap! Bad news! The Sacred Law Council has made a move! Massive momentum! They're heading our way! The entire North Crown Star Capital is on full alert!"
"They're obviously coming for Nan Shen! Should we retreat into the dimension gap to hide?"
Jiangnan grinned: (๑¯ิ↼¯) "So they've come, huh? But this is our own mining area, isn't it? Hide? Screw that! Fight! We'll figure out what to do if we can't win!"
