Chapter 553 Lunch
Early the next morning, Xi stretched out and sat up from the bed. The hotel bed was very comfortable, so she slept very peacefully last night. However, she kept feeling some noise in her ears in the middle of the night. What was it?
"..."
Xi glanced around and found that beside him, Theofir, who was wearing armor, was being tied up. The hemp rope that came from unknown sources wrapped her into a caterpillar. Her hands were tied in front of her, and she was lying on her back unable to move.
"……Good morning."
Theophel greeted him politely, paying no attention to his situation.
"Good morning... No, sister Theofel, why are you in my bed? And in this form..."
Xi stepped forward to help Theophel untie the restraints, but the other party shook his head and tore the ropes with just a slight effort.
"Li said that if I break free before you wake up, you won't give me any good fruits to eat."
Theofir, who was attacked at night, was killed and tied up by Li control Xi's body, and he was threatened severely before he stopped making trouble.
Li told Xi the truth, and the latter smiled dryly, "Yuan, so that's how it is..."
I almost forgot that Sister Theofel is indeed someone who would do such a thing...
"Where's Sister Paduo?"
"I followed Li's request and sent her back to her room."
"...Today you take good care of her, and also play games with her to prevent her from getting too lonely." Li came out and ordered Theofel.
"? Can't I follow?"
Where could it be more fun to be with humans than hanging out with Ri?
"We won't need you today, let's talk about it in the next few days." Li's tone was like a scumbag, and he wanted to kick away the useless Theophel mercilessly.
"Woo..."
Under Li's strong request, Theophel reluctantly accepted his order.
After arranging Theophel, Li returned to the sea of consciousness. Xi changed her clothes, took out the sickle from the cabinet, and then went to find Eden.
"Sister Eden, I'm ready."
Xi found Eden in the hotel restaurant with a sickle in her arms. The other party was eating a sumptuous breakfast elegantly. When he saw Xi coming, he pointed to the opposite side of his dining table. Another hot breakfast had already taken his place. Nozomi is ready.
"Eat something first. If you don't eat well before work, you won't have the strength to work."
"it is good……"
The breakfast on the first day out was especially rich, including staple food, desserts, drinks, and fruits. Anyway, Eden would never treat Xi badly in terms of life.
Eden and Xi both ate half full, which was almost enough to be digested on the way to the mission location. Then they got up and left the restaurant. There was a waiting waiter behind them who was responsible for clearing the table.
"Pado and Theofel's breakfast and lunch will be delivered to them. Let's set off next."
Yesterday's helicopter baggage loading and unloading area has been repaired, so the two of them can set off directly today.
……
Ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta!
With the sound of the helicopter propellers turning in her ears, Xi closed her eyes nervously and fell asleep again on the helicopter, but Naili came out to replace her.
Fortunately, our destination this time belongs to the same archipelago, so it didn’t take long to arrive.
Li observed from the helicopter that the small island was floating alone on the sea. The nearest large island in the northeast was only more than 20 kilometers away and could be easily reached. No wonder Eden destroyed the two islands. The bad beast cleanup is treated as a same-day task.
The helicopter stopped at the edge of the small island. Eden agreed with the pilot to meet here at five o'clock in the afternoon or at the beach of the big island next to it, and then got off the helicopter with Li.
"Well……"
Xi was woken up by Li, and when she saw Eden looking at her with a smile, she reacted, "Sister Eden, are we here?"
"I'm here, I'll ask you to protect my safety from now on~"
"Ok!"
Xi grabbed the sickle and opened the way in front, and Eden followed behind. The two of them gradually moved deeper into the center of the island.
Since it is a tropical area, the scenery here is pretty good. There are lush plants everywhere, there are many towering trees, and the eyes are completely covered in green.
But the only fly in the ointment is that not a single animal was seen. The tropical forest should be full of insects and birds, but since Xi and Eden walked in, they only felt quiet. It was too quiet, as if they were not in the same place. Dense forests, but barren deserts.
"Not even mosquitoes..."
Eden wore long sleeves and trousers this time, just to prevent mosquito bites, but she didn't expect that this was completely unnecessary and instead made her extremely hot.
"I should know more information in advance..."
A drop of sweat flowed from her forehead, across her chin, and landed on her delicate collarbone.
"..."
Xi waved the scythe in front, splitting the plants blocking the road. She did not feel tired under the high-intensity exercise, but the heat was inevitable. There was so much sweat on her body that it stained her top and made it tight. Close to the body.
"The concentration of Honkai energy has not yet reached a dangerous level...maybe all the Honkai beasts on this island have migrated away?"
Eden looked at the instrument in his hand and held the Ninth God's Key with his other hand. He looked around and saw no trace of white or purple except green or green.
It was almost noon, and it was time for lunch. The two of them had spent the whole morning shopping but found nothing.
"Xi, let's go in that direction."
Eden pointed to his left hand. The instrument in his hand was replaced and turned into something similar to a locator. "The hotel staff have cleared a resting place somewhere on the island. There is something we need there." Various supplies, including lunch.”
"...Sister Eden, are we going camping?"
The mission experience that Nozomi learned from Sister Alicia and the others was not such a good treatment.
"Haha...why suffer when you can avoid it?"
"..."
Xi quoted a sentence from Big Brother: Is this a rich person? Love it, love it.
The staff installed a transmitter, so Eden and Xi easily found the material storage location. It was an open space that had been cleared in the forest. A hole was dug in the middle, and all the materials needed for rest were found. It was hidden inside and covered with hay.
This arrangement is to prevent destruction by Honkaimon that may exist on the island, but now it seems that it is still unnecessary. Anyway, Eden plans to simply search the remaining area after lunch, and then go directly to the next one. Island.
"what?"
But when the two of them got closer, Xi, who was walking in front, found that the hay covering the pothole seemed to be sinking, as if something had stepped on it.
"Sister Eden, our lunch!"
