Chapter 1532: Four
"Qingyu, what's wrong?"
Jiang Er's voice came through An Qingyu's earpiece, but the latter could barely hear it. His hands clutching his head, he painfully curled up in the wheelchair, his mind feeling like it was splitting apart!
"Qingyu." Lin Qiye rushed to An Qingyu's side in an instant, scanning his body with spiritual power. He found no physical ailments whatsoever. His brow furrowed tightly. "Another soul-related aftereffect?"
"I... I'm fine..."
An Qingyu gritted his teeth, his voice hoarse. "Just... a bit of a headache... it'll pass soon... Don't worry about me."
Lin Qiye's expression was grim beyond measure.
A moment ago, everything had been fine. Why did the headache suddenly return?
More importantly, it was happening at this exact moment—once again, he sensed Migo's presence... and this time, the number was far more than just one!
"Seven Nights, go ahead. I'll take care of Qingyu." Jiang Er spoke solemnly.
After a moment of hesitation, Lin Qiye finally nodded. "If the situation worsens, contact me immediately through the communicator."
"Understood."
Lin Qiye's form dissolved into the night, vanishing in an instant. At the same time, he dialed a number.
"Chen Han, they're back..."
...
At Shangjing University, the Kendo Club.
"Good morning, Senior."
"Mm."
"Good morning, Senior Menglei... Eh? Senior, are you wearing makeup today?"
"That's rare! Is there a big event tonight?"
Several club members walked into the training hall and, seeing Lu Menglei already changed into her kendo uniform practicing off to the side, asked in surprise.
Usually, Lu Menglei found makeup troublesome. Given the time, she'd rather wake up half an hour earlier to run an extra lap around the track. Unless it was an occasion that absolutely required it, she was rarely seen wearing any.
Lu Menglei's grip on the bamboo sword paused. She shot them a glare. "So many questions. Is it strange for me to wear makeup? Let me see who's got nothing better to do—come spar with me later!"
Hearing this, everyone froze,老老实实地去换剑道服。
Lu Menglei glanced at the clock on the wall, then looked toward the entrance of the training hall, as if waiting for someone.
A few minutes later, a figure carrying a backpack walked through the door.
When Lu Menglei saw him, her gaze flickered with a complicated mixture of emotions. After a moment, she set down her bamboo sword and took the initiative to speak:
"Good morning, Cao Yuan junior."
"Good morning." Cao Yuan gave a slight nod.
"Go change. Let's train together later?"
"Sure."
Cao Yuan briefly greeted Lu Menglei. His expression showed no change, as if everything that happened last night had just been a dream... This lukewarm attitude caused the thoughts Lu Menglei had barely managed to suppress to stir once more, endlessly circling through her mind:
Why is he so cold toward me? It wasn't like this last night... Was I too forward last night? Or does he simply not have those kinds of feelings?
Chaotic thoughts swirled through Lu Menglei's mind. She stared blankly at Cao Yuan's retreating back, a strange, inexplicable sense of loss rising in her heart...
Just as Cao Yuan was about to enter the changing room, an urgent phone ringtone cut through the air.
"Hello?"
"..."
"What?" Cao Yuan's gaze instantly sharpened. "Alright, I'm on my way!"
Without a word, Cao Yuan threw his bag onto the floor of the training hall and rushed toward the exit!
"Cao Yuan junior! Where are you going?" Seeing the sudden change in his expression, Lu Menglei called out anxiously.
"Something important came up... Sorry, Senior. I can't spar with you today."
After a brief explanation, Cao Yuan charged out of the training hall. Lu Menglei stood frozen in place, her mind still echoing with the fierce, lethal intent that had flashed across Cao Yuan's face as he turned...
"Senior, why did the new junior leave? You're not bullying him again, are you?" A member walked in from outside, looking suspicious.
Lu Menglei watched his retreating figure, her heart empty. She snapped back to her senses, embarrassed and annoyed:
"Who's bullying him! He... must have something urgent to deal with. Never mind that. Let's continue training!"
...
"Four?!"
Through the phone, Chen Han's voice was full of shock.
"That's right." Lin Qiye streaked across the sky above Shangjing City, his expression grave. "And this time, their positions are quite scattered—closer to the city center than last time. Fortunately, I was on alert this time. The moment I sensed them, I notified you. They haven't caused any casualties yet."
"Four... Even if the two of us split up, we can only take down two in a short time. What about the other two?"
"Cao Yuan can handle one. As for the last one... I'll deal with it."
"Alright!"
After hanging up, Lin Qiye waved his hand. A summoning magic array unfolded in the air, and a deep-blue cat figure leaped out from within it.
"Fifteen kilometers to the southeast. Go." Lin Qiye said in a low voice.
Lucky meowed and transformed into a bolt of lightning, vanishing into the clouds in an instant.
Migo's power was足以媲美"Klein"境巅峰, enough to rival Klein-level peak. Killing them was no easy task. Among all Lin Qiye's current orderlies, few could handle these creatures. Lei Shou Lucky was the strongest, so sending it to solo a Migo was the most reliable choice.
The wind howled past Lin Qiye's ears. On top of a distant skyscraper, a pinkish red dot slowly floated.
Its thin membranous wings vibrated rapidly. Several grotesque, jointed limbs clung to the lightning rod. A Migo raised its head high, and the wart-like head covered in tentacles constantly shifted direction, as if searching for something.
Lin Qiye's brow furrowed deeper at the sight.
As expected, the first Migo invasion was no coincidence... They came to Shangjing specifically to search for something!
Sensing Lin Qiye's approach, this Migo let out a sharp buzzing sound. The spacetime around it began to distort, as if it had no intention of engaging Lin Qiye in combat, and instead wanted to slip directly into the space-time gap.
"Thinking of escaping?" Lin Qiye coldly snorted. An invisible domain suddenly expanded!
【Lord of the Final Decree】!
The moment it was covered by this invisible domain, the spacetime distortion around the Migo returned to normal. Its form was forcibly ejected from the space-time gap. The tentacles growing from its wart-like head thrashed wildly, as if in utter rage.
It seemed that Gilgamesh's divine power also worked on these creatures from beyond the world... That was undoubtedly good news for Lin Qiye.
A suffocating darkness gradually devoured the sky. Lin Qiye's form shot toward the Migo at breakneck speed. A snow-white blade materialized in his palm!
Clang—!
【White Slash】 unsheathed! A pair of burning golden pupils ignited!
