Chapter 72 Rhine and the Mysterious Man
On a cliff.
"We can't waste the power to kill gods."
As he watched the SUV driving below, the golden data stream in Su Yi's eyes silently accelerated.
With the assistance of the HarmonyOS computer in the dark dimension, he was rapidly analyzing the essence of the violent yet restrained destructive energy emanating from Liu Chuang below.
Hannibal stood silently half a step behind him, like his most loyal shadow.
His aura was completely concealed, but his sharp gaze swept over everything around him.
Suddenly, a faint whooshing sound came from the air.
Immediately afterwards, a tall, slender figure clad in silver armor landed gracefully beside Su Yi.
It was Angel Yan.
Her sudden appearance made Su Yi raise an eyebrow, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
"Why are you here?"
Su Yi asked, a hint of helplessness in his voice, "Didn't I ask you to look after Zhixin and the others?"
"snort!"
Yan pursed her lips, crossed her arms, and slightly raised her delicate chin.
"They're not children; I don't need to look after them all the time."
As she spoke, her gaze also fell on the off-road vehicles driving on the mountain road below.
"You're up late at night, just watching these kids carry out their mission?"
Yan's tone carried a hint of confusion.
"It was just something I did on the spur of the moment."
Su Yi withdrew his gaze from the ground and looked at Yan, his expression becoming serious. "However, if you don't leave now, it'll be troublesome to leave later."
trouble?
Yan's heart skipped a beat, and his azure eyes instantly sharpened.
"What do you mean?"
Yan lowered his voice, his tone wary.
"Could it be that Morgana is about to come knocking on our door?"
The first thing that came to her mind was that devilish boss who threw things around everywhere.
After all, the other party has a criminal record.
The other side will not give up until they capture Su Yi and his companion!
Or perhaps...
'
Yan's gaze swept over Su Yi's calm face and Hannibal, who stood behind him like a rock.
"Is someone else trying to cause you trouble?"
She suddenly realized that Su Yi's choice of this time to bring Hannibal to this desolate wilderness alone was probably not just about stealing the children's abilities!
In an instant, all sorts of speculations churned in Yan's mind.
But what she felt most was a sense of relief that it had indeed come to pass.
Ok!
Thank goodness she came along!
Otherwise, this guy will have to face unknown dangers alone!
Thinking of this, Yan straightened his back, his pure white wings slightly unfurled, and a majestic aura belonging to the Thunder God of War was quietly released.
She patted her chest, which was covered in silver armor, making a crisp, light sound, and said with unwavering determination, "Don't be afraid!"
"Even if Morgana really comes, with me here, I will never let her hurt you!"
She spoke with unwavering resolve, her eyes flashing with lightning, as if she were ready to fight to protect those around her.
Upon hearing this, Su Yi rolled his eyes speechlessly.
This silly girl, she didn't even fully understand the situation before she dared to come and protect me?
You're so carefree!
Besides, who needs your protection?
"Commendable courage."
"However, if a fight breaks out later, remember to stay far away."
"Why should I? I'm not weak!"
Yan retorted somewhat indignantly, "If we can't deal with Morgana, surely we can at least hold her off for a while?"
She paused, seemingly feeling that this reason wasn't enough to sway Su Yi, and added, "Besides, King Tianji sent me!"
Upon hearing this, Su Yi was slightly taken aback, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
"Did He Xi send you?"
"Um!"
Yan nodded, her expression very serious.
Seeing this, Su Yi was somewhat puzzled.
Because He Xi knew the purpose of her trip.
It turns out that he had already spotted the other party when Snow came to survey the situation.
Although he was somewhat surprised that Karl had sent people to keep an eye on him so quickly, he didn't care too much.
After all, with his current strength, dealing with Snow would be a piece of cake.
He didn't even bother to alert the enemy; he simply marked the other party in secret and let Snow roam around the villa like a venomous snake, gathering some irrelevant information.
It wasn't until the Liangshan incident broke out that Su Yi decided to take this opportunity to completely eliminate this venomous snake lurking in the shadows.
Drop it to avoid future trouble.
Therefore, his only concern was Karl.
After all, Snow was Karl's messenger, and killing him was tantamount to slapping Karl in the face.
Therefore, he was unsure whether the other party would personally intervene.
Therefore, before leaving the villa, Su Yi had already had a brief conversation with He Xi to explain the situation.
He Xi's response at the time was also very concise, simply saying that she would keep an eye on it.
Su Yi initially thought that He Xi's "watching" meant that she would use the space-based computing cluster to monitor the situation and provide remote support when necessary.
Alternatively, they could restrain Karl from personally intervening when he lacks martial ethics.
Unexpectedly, she sent Yan over directly?
Did he feel that relying solely on himself and Hannibal to deal with Snow might be risky?
Or does she have a deeper meaning?
Looking at the angel Yan in front of him who seemed to think, "I'm strong and I can fight," and then thinking of the always smiling He Xi, Su Yi was unsure of her intentions.
"He Xi, did she say anything else?"
Su Yi asked tentatively.
"no."
Yan shook his head.
"Sigh, fine! Since you're here, behave yourself. I'll take you to do something serious after I've analyzed the god-slaying power!"
"Oh~"
After Yan responded, she stood quietly beside Su Yi.
Then, Su Yi turned his attention back to Liu Chuang.
Meanwhile, on Saint Radiance Star, in Rhine's study.
Soft, energy-filled lights illuminated the antique bookshelves and the desk piled high with data boards.
At that moment, Rhine was bent over his desk, taking notes.
The air was filled with the scent of old books and a faint sandalwood fragrance.
Just then, the deepest shadow in the corner of the study seemed to come alive, twisting and stretching slightly.
Immediately afterwards, a figure appeared silently, as if peeled away from the darkness itself.
He didn't try to hide himself, but the light falling on him seemed to be absorbed, shrouding his face and clothing in a blurry shadow.
Only a pair of eyes shimmered with a weariness that had settled over tens of thousands of years.
Faced with this uninvited guest, Rhein, who was bent over his desk, did not pause at all and continued to write the last character smoothly before gently placing the quill on the pen holder.
He slowly raised his head and looked at the figure in the shadows. His face showed no surprise, only a knowing look of "I knew it."
"You've arrived?"
Rhine's voice was calm and gentle, as if he were greeting an old friend who often came to visit.
The figure in the shadows nodded slightly, the movement carrying an ancient elegance, yet also revealing a nonchalant air.
"You seem to have known I was coming?"
His voice was somewhat low and hoarse, as if he hadn't spoken in a long time, yet it possessed a unique magnetism.
