“What the hell happened!”
As the feave a violent kick to the door of the bus with her boots on The exit door of the bus iht red nu steadily above it
Behind Lin Sanjiu was Marcie, who sighed with a lowered head, and Luther who had just calmed down from his fury
“Does this mean that we only have one chance left?” Lin Sanjiu took a deep breath Her bloodshot eyes glowered, and her unfathorew “Who are the people responsible for all that fckery behind our backs!”
“Xiao Jiu, don’t be so mad If we looked at it from another perspective, perhaps ere saved by that countdown Otherwise, ould have all been dead,” Marcie consoled her softly but was still at a loss as to what they would do next
Even though it ht be true, momentarily, Lin Sanjiu found it difficult to accept She could not help feeling that soer as both her hands clenched the sides of her pants tightly
After so out for a walk”
Luther ed his temples as if he had a headache, his expression was not any better
She walked a few steps away froht wind spat waves of sand at her The slight pain made Lin Sanjiu deeply aware that she was still alive Silence surrounded her, without a single hint of noise, it was so quiet that she could even hear the blood flowing through the vessels in her ears This was perhaps the reason why her intense eradually waned
[It’s so quiet But, isn’t it a little too quiet?]
She kept feeling like soaze drifted to the dirty Citroën a short distance away fro the previous two tione over to wake us up by this time But why didn’t we hear his mobile phone alarht occurred to her, Lin Sanjiu strode quickly to the Citroën and began calling out a little worriedly, “Voley! Are you awake?”
After she waited for a while, she still heard no activity froer She wiped the car’s dirt-covered windshield with her sleeve, then bent over and peeked inside
The front passenger seat was reclined backward and used as a bed There were packets of half-eaten food, eanxious, she surveyed the area as she circled the group of parked vehicles There was only a vast e turned to ashes so she had an unobstructed viehich stretched as far as she could see Unfortunately, even after she had walked two rounds around the area, she could not even spot a single footprint of Voley
Coincidentally, Luther and Marcie were getting off the bus while chatting When Lin Sanjiu heard the, “Voley is not in his car, he’s o look for him?”
They were stunned, they never expected that Voley would goMarcie opened her ic voice co from the roof of the bus
“I’d say, you shouldn’t look for him You probably won’t find him anyway”
The three of them were shocked by the voice as they instinctively took a couple of steps back and looked up at the roof Against the large silver white ures: one of the down They did not even realize when these ures, it was difficult to ht
From what it see down He appeared to be rather relaxed as one of his legs dangled fro at ?” he quipped
The three of them were dumbfounded for a moment; Lin Sanjiu opened her mouth and asked, “What did you do to Vo—”
Just then, theher; suddenly he stepped forward into the ure landed i up a cloud of dust
The man had a tall and sturdy stature, his erous aura of pent-up energy He carried a long, slightly curved sword on his back, which appeared to resemble a katana But he lacked a scabbard which made it a mystery how he actually attached the sword to his back The li down fro co about that man raised Lin Sanjiu and the others’ alarm, and they slipped into defensive postures The man lifted his head, and he lifted a corner of histo the three of them a smile which one would callpressure like they had never experienced before swept toward them like a wave of a tsunami As if the person had drawn out all the air fro for a second It became difficult for them to even stand as they were assaulted by that pressure—Marcie tried to hold her position, but she was the first one to be unable to withstand it and fell on the ground with a plop as her face turned white
With a face bri with defiance, his forehead was covered in cold sweat as he was forced into a half-kneel position
Lin Sanjiu felt as though theher heart in his hand, every strained muscle in her body throbbed to keep her propped up She tree to turned and run away She felt practically like a hare that had encountered a cougar in the prairies It was a sort of despair that arose from her powerlessness—they were definitely on different levels on the food chain
By this point, Lin Sanjiu’s Keen Senses was fully triggered, and all the cells in her body were screaive in to her i while he spoke, leaped off the roof landing lightly A breeze, like a wind in Spring which appears fro to bloohtly washed over Lin Sanjiu’s face The see heavily in the air immediately abated
