Chapter 1714 Let’s go!

She gently tugged at his sleeves and lowered her voice so low that only the two of them and Shi Xinxin, who was not far away, could hear:

"His target was me, from the very beginning."

She paused, her eyes sweeping over the data disk that Lu Jingcheng was holding tightly in his arms, her tone becoming more serious.

"You guys take the data and mission objectives to City B first, leave me alone."

Afraid that Shi Xinxin might be worried, she turned her head and added in a softer voice:

"I have a space trump card. If I really can't get rid of him, I can hide inside and he won't be able to find me. Don't worry about it."

Shi Xinxin nodded immediately and secretly made an "OK" gesture. The ice shield on her fingertips solidified a little more, obviously to help her cover up and prevent other teammates from noticing this private conversation.

Lu Jingcheng was about to say "Let's go together" when he heard a mysterious man's sneer from a distance:

"What are you hiding in the back for? Are you planning on who will die first?"

When the eyes under the black robe swept over, Li Luo felt his skin tighten - that was not the look of looking at a person, but the look of looking at "prey", like a hungry wolf staring at the bones and blood hidden under the fur.

Without waiting for her to react, the mysterious man slowly raised his hand, revealing his fingertips from under his black robe. They were as dry as old tree roots, with a thread of black air wrapped between his fingers, vaguely pointing at her.

"None of you can leave." His voice was so low that it seemed to come from underground, and every word was wrapped in coldness, "Especially you -"

Before he finished speaking, the black energy from his fingertips suddenly fell to the ground and wrapped around the gravel like a living snake. With a "sizzling" sound, the tiny stones instantly melted into black mud.

The air around was heavy, even the wind seemed frozen, only the black air was crawling on the ground, moving half an inch towards Li Luo.

Li Luo's eyes suddenly turned cold, like a blade tempered by ice, but the tense string in his heart quietly loosened - the mysterious man's words came at the perfect time, stopping Lu Jingcheng's thoughts of persuading him again.

She raised her eyes to look at Jingcheng Lu, her tone no longer as hurried as before, but more confident: "Don't worry, I'll be fine."

As she finished speaking, she gently pushed away Lu Jingcheng's outstretched hand, her fingertips wiping the cold sweat on his palm. When she bent down, her fingertips slid down along Potato's taut back.

Potato reacted immediately, with his hind paws raised, his front paws slightly bent, his tail stretched straight as a string, his pale golden pupils fixed on the mysterious man, and his claws hidden in his pads quietly popped out half an inch, emitting a cold light, and even the hair on the tips of his ears stood up.

The gyroscope next to it also began to move, its tentacles gently touching the ground. Light blue energy formed tiny circles around the edge of the suction cup, as if weaving an invisible net. With each circle, the surrounding air trembled, and even the fine sand on the ground began to glow.

"Potato, Gyro, let's go!" Li Luo's voice was flat, but it sounded like an order hardened by ice. As soon as the last syllable fell, her five fingers suddenly turned into claws.

The moment the wind power exploded in his palm, more than a dozen blades as thin as wind threads took shape instantly, wrapped in the gravel on the ground, and "whoosh" shot towards the mysterious human face - the wind blades were so fast that their tracks were almost invisible, leaving only a series of tiny air tremors in the air.

The moment the rubble hit the mysterious man's black robe, a cloud of gray mist exploded with a "crash", just obscuring his vision.

It was this half second that Li Luo wanted - she pushed her foot hard on the ground, and a very faint ripple appeared in the space around her. The next second, she appeared behind the broken wall three meters away, her movements as fast as an afterimage.
