Chapter 246. Don’t
Volcano.
The officer, clad in ink-black military armor, stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze focused on the golden-haired Pegasus above the lava.
“Walker, sir.”
A shadowy figure materialized and bowed, “Berna, the Festival Emissary’s laboratory was attacked. The high-grade Calamity Spirit Pearl was stolen by a mysterious man.”
“What?”
Xize turned, his small eyes narrowing, a cold, sharp glint flashing within them. “What did you say?!”
The shadowy figure hastily lowered his body even further, gritting his teeth to control his fear as he recounted the detailed process.
Buzz!!
The invisible gravity field around them suddenly intensified, the air seemingly gaining substance, forming wisps of white lines. The ground collapsed over a large area.
The lava in the center of the volcano churned more violently, as if ready to erupt at any moment, unleashing a world-ending disaster.
Plop—
The shadowy figure, unable to withstand the sudden change in gravity, knelt down with a thud. He lowered his head, his teeth clenched, his body trembling.
However, this state did not last long, returning to normal after just two seconds.
“Where is Berna?” Xize’s cold, indifferent voice echoed from a distance.
“To fight against the three invaders, the Festival Emissary opened a passage to the Egret Forbidden Zone.”
The shadowy figure lowered his head and said in a deep voice, “He should still be on Cloud Platform 37 in the forbidden zone.”
Upon hearing this, Xize let out a cold laugh. He asked nothing further, forcefully suppressing his anger before falling into contemplation.
He no longer expected that useless Berna to retrieve the high-grade Calamity Spirit Pearl.
Now, he could only find another way.
“Make arrangements, summon all Level Five Festival Emissaries,” Xize narrowed his eyes and looked at the hazy sky, a bloodthirsty killing intent flashing in his gaze.
“Yes!”
*
Unknown island.
Misty forest.
The black-dressed woman lay on top of Xia Feng, cupping his jaw and pulling him slightly closer. Her beautiful eyes were cast down, gazing at his thin lips within inches of her own. She felt her will to be both clear and chaotic.
Damn it, what am I doing?
Mu Qingtong frowned, her cool and aloof little face showing no hesitation as she lowered her head directly—
It was cold, thin, like jelly.
So this is what kissing feels like?
It felt like that, just average.
Her calm gaze slightly lifted. Mr. Xia’s eyelids remained lowered, casting a shadow, with no sign of him suddenly waking up.
This made her slightly relieved. After prying open Mr. Xia’s lips, she began to transfer Calamity Force using the soul blood chain, feeding the dense mist into his mouth.
Mu Qingtong could feel that as she exhaled the Calamity Force mist, the mysterious power within Mr. Xia would automatically draw in the mist, absorbing it into the area of his heart.
Compared to transferring it through the veins in his neck, transferring it through the mouth was significantly more efficient.
In just a few seconds, Mu Qingtong felt her internal Calamity Force erosion alleviate by 30%.
Seeing this, she embraced Mr. Xia’s neck with both hands, adjusted her posture, and increased the speed of the transfer.
“Ugh—”
At this moment, a low, slightly pained groan from the man echoed in her ears. Mu Qingtong’s finely arched neck stiffened slightly. Messy, sweat-dampened silver strands brushed across the man’s face in the gentle breeze, fluttering.
She pursed her lips and raised her head slightly, doing her best to keep her beautiful eyes calm, watching silently, waiting for Xia Feng to wake up.
However, what puzzled her was that Mr. Xia seemed to still be exhibiting some kind of conditioned reflex.
Seeing this, Mu Qingtong didn’t pay it much mind and continued to lower her head again. But as soon as she did, Xia Feng began to resist, shaking his head, his brow furrowed, and a faint, indistinct sound came from his thin lips.
Mu Qingtong froze. She faintly heard the words “don’t,” accompanied by resistance, fear, and even dread.
This made her furrow her brow. What did it mean? Was Mr. Xia’s body subconsciously resisting me?
Or was he having a nightmare?
Or perhaps Xia Feng had already woken up but couldn’t open his eyes, and upon sensing her actions, wanted to forcibly awaken his body to stop her?
However, after sensing with her mental power, Mu Qingtong could confirm that Mr. Xia’s spirit was not awake, merely somewhat active, which was more consistent with him having a nightmare that would be unforgettable for his entire life.
Her beautiful eyes lifted to glance at Xia Feng’s eyelids in confusion. Too lazy to think further, Mu Qingtong paused for a moment before starting to transfer Calamity Force again.
But then, Xia Feng shook his head again, actually starting to struggle, murmuring involuntarily in resistance.
“Emperor, don’t…”
Although it was just an unintelligible murmur, Mu Qingtong found it inexplicably grating.
Her gaze turned cold. She forcefully embraced Xia Feng’s neck, but the man beneath her struggled even more violently, even raising his hands and flailing them unconsciously.
“Slap!” Mu Qingtong was caught off guard and was slapped directly. She tilted her head, her beautiful eyes momentarily stunned.
“!!!”
!
“You guy…” Mu Qingtong narrowed her beautiful eyes and grabbed Xia Feng’s wrists, pinning them above his ink-black hair. Xia Feng’s neck involuntarily tilted back, his lips parting and murmuring indistinct words of resistance.
Mu Qingtong’s gaze was icy. With her other hand, she roughly held up the man’s jaw and suddenly lowered her head directly!
No longer gentle, the speed of transferring Calamity Force indeed increased slightly.
40% 80% 100%
In less than ten seconds, Mu Qingtong’s internal Calamity Force erosion completely dissipated.
However, there was still a continuous stream of Calamity Force mist flowing into her body from the outside. She had to continuously and roughly transfer it into Xia Feng’s mouth to maintain her sanity.
This clearly wasn’t a good solution. The kissing couldn’t be interrupted, and it was only treating the symptoms, not the root cause.
Mu Qingtong fell into contemplation.
[After 10 seconds of thought, followed by 100 seconds of research on Calamity Force mist, and 10 minutes of kissing you! Mu Qingtong had a flash of inspiration, fusing and optimizing the Spirit Particle Structure of C·Bronze Spirit Robe with C·Spirit Particle Mimicry, and you comprehended the ‘B-grade Spirit Robe·Bronze Calamity Armor’.]
[B·Bronze Calamity Armor]
[Qingtong Production, Must Be Quality Goods]
[Powerful Calamity Filtration: You can release spirit particles to create a filtration Spirit Robe covering your body. This Spirit Robe possesses a Calamity Force filtration effect 100-200 times more efficient than ordinary filtration Spirit Robes, with the effect depending on the spirit pressure consumed.]
[Effect 2: Virtual Pressure. You can simulate virtual spirit pressure 1-10 times greater than your own to deter targets.]
[Effect 3: Mimicry. This outer garment can take on any appearance, including but not limited to cars, airplanes, ship hulls, etc., and possesses flight capabilities. It can be controlled by intent, with an upper speed limit equivalent to your Agility value.]
As Mu Qingtong’s thoughts arose, spirit particles emitting a faint glow emerged from her body, forming a semi-transparent Spirit Robe before suddenly dispersing—
It condensed into a Spirit Robe in the shape of a capsule ship, lifting the two of them and enclosing them within the ship’s hull, before slowly floating forward into the depths of the forest.
The dense mist around them was immediately repelled outside the capsule ship, but a few stray wisps still managed to penetrate.
However, the concentration had been greatly reduced, and Mu Qingtong’s sanity would no longer be depleted in mere seconds.
She released Xia Feng’s lips and looked outside.
All around were giant, ancient trees with branches and leaves that were frighteningly white. Dense gray mist swirled, and she had no idea where this place was.
Mr. Xia still did not wake up due to the River of Time and Space.
Lost in aimless thought, the black-dressed woman’s slender eyelashes drooped again, her gaze fixed on the thin lips before her, which had been bitten until they bled.
Honestly, kissing really just felt like that, average.
Thinking this, she hesitated for 0.8 seconds before lowering her head again.
“Ugh,” Xia Feng’s brow furrowed again, his eyelids twitching slightly.
