Chapter 145
A sudden sense of crisis welled up in Jingsui's heart as this person approached her without a sound. Had he been holding a dagger just then, she would likely be a corpse by now.
Facing someone of this caliber, she should have immediately activated her Mist Concealment technique to flee far away.
Yet that structure, resembling both a temple and a tower, acted like a lodestone, pinning her firmly to the spot.
Subconsciously, she gripped the longsword at her waist, feeling the increasingly familiar will emanating from the blade, which finally allowed Jingsui to calm down a fraction.
However, they had suffered no injuries whatsoever. Using secret treasures and forbidden artifacts to evade the crisis from the very beginning, they had remained hidden in the shadows, not daring to step foot into the killing array. Only after witnessing the Primordial experts sacrifice their lives to draw out the lethal force did they finally dare to show themselves, even going so far as to wear expressions of disdain and sneers.
Chu Xun did not speak, merely standing quietly in front of them, gazing up at the divine runes continuously cascading from the void.
"Pardon me, I was too abrupt. It's simply that I was captivated by your beauty and couldn't help myself." Jiang Yuan withdrew his hand, looking at her with a smile.
"Giving it is death, and not giving it is still death, so I definitely won't give it to you," Shen Ying said defiantly.
Yet Li Meng went to the refrigerator, took out a carton of yogurt and finished it, then went to the en-suite bathroom in her bedroom to take care of some business. When she returned to the gaming pod and logged back into the game, she was practically ready to explode with anger—why on earth was she still at the altar?
"Alright, alright, Anna, stop teasing him." Chen Chen dragged Anna toward her room. Anna stumbled along behind her, blowing a kiss toward Zhang Xuan.
At 12:35, 75 reinforcement fighter planes that had rushed from the US mainland arrived in Hawaii, entering a tense state of combat readiness, standing by at any moment to deal with a third wave of attacks, and beginning the search for the Japanese fleet that had launched this assault.
Although General MacArthur's current stance had infuriated the British, the continuous defeats in the Indian theater meant the British now depended on the Allied forces.
The bronze-armored divine deity, wielding a long spear, charged forward to slaughter them. The spear thrust like a dragon, illuminating the surroundings with a dazzling brilliance.
"You really are a mess," Chen Chen said, grinning as she looked at the vivid and colorful mark on her neck, wondering if she should really let her sleep in her own bed tonight.
Wang Yang was somewhat annoyed, assuming that Kaisa was deliberately going against him. He had never seen him work this hard before; he only put in the effort because selections were today.
"Very well then." Wen Hongyue said as she prepared to enter the bathroom. Seeing this, Wen Cuilong hurriedly handed her a set of clothes.
Chen Weihang's clothes were thus torn away by Luo Zixu, exposing the crimson breastplate underneath.
[It's only once, I shouldn't be that unlucky, right?] Du Ziyuan thought to himself. With his abilities, even getting stuck in a rock crevice wouldn't matter, as long as he could escape this room. Therefore, he decisively tore open the random scroll.
Today, Eindhoven emphasized overall team play and the utilization of their forwards, making them difficult to deal with. Louis van Gaal offered a few more words of caution just as the second half was about to kick off.
This was the great thing about the system: martial arts techniques extracted from it were directly comprehended to the state of mastery, and extracted items could also be used proficiently on the spot. Otherwise, Du Ziyuan wouldn't have been able to wield something like the Plantain Fan with such smooth and effortless ease right after getting his hands on it.
Two rounds of the league had passed, and although Manchester United remained undefeated, they had only accumulated 2 points, placing them second to last in 19th place—a poor start to the season. Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal, and Manchester City had all secured two consecutive wins, pulling 4 points ahead of Manchester United.
It's fine, it's fine. Although it's boring, as long as nothing goes wrong, it's all good. As long as the old man doesn't undergo a dark corruption arc, everything is negotiable.
"For my sake? Then I'm sorry, you've found the wrong person. Since you know I'm a member of the Dongfang family, you certainly have a lot of nerve wanting to murder someone who is fundamentally unkillable while breaking the law!" Dongfang Chu sneered coldly.
The nose is naturally a sensitive organ, and in just this fleeting moment, he felt his heartbeat accelerate and his blood surge.
Still, remaining firmly at the bottom of the rankings was indeed rather unsightly. After pondering for a moment, Li Yang retrieved several items from his storage ring and placed them on the stone table.
