Armor Guardians

Chapter 278 Can't Swim?

With a mission approaching, Xia Qianmeng didn't want anyone to disturb her or hear her conversation with Xia Qianxue, so she refused the car and plane pick-up arranged by the Shadow Group when heading to the mission destination, thinking that it would be too high-profile.

Although she possesses a power that transcends worldly concerns, Xia Qianmeng sometimes still yearns for an ordinary life. In an ordinary life, she would only need to think about how to take care of herself and her family, instead of having to save or change the world as she does now.

If she really doesn't do it, she doesn't know, and doesn't want to know, what the world will eventually become.

After a two-day journey, Xia Qianmeng and Xia Qianxue finally arrived at a place called City X.

This place is close to nature and the tropics, so the climate is hot and humid all year round. As a result, it has long been a tourist hotspot, attracting many visitors at any time of year.

Coincidentally, this place also fits perfectly into the locations where those fake armored figures commit crimes, since the more people they affect, the greater their gains will be.

Although they were said to be disguised, Xia Qianmeng and Xia Qianxue did not actually disguise themselves at all. These days, more and more girls are getting plastic surgery to look like Xia Qianmeng, and coincidentally, Xia Qianxue and Xia Qianmeng are twins who look very similar.

In addition, they haven't remained unchanged all along. As they've grown older and their abilities have improved, their appearances have changed to some extent, making them more mature and beautiful.

Therefore, when they appeared, they were immediately mistaken for Xia Qianmeng and Xia Qianxue in disguise, respected but not understood...

Since we're already here, it would be a shame not to take the opportunity to explore and enjoy the sights, especially since they're not as short of money as they used to be.

And so, just like other tourists, Xia Qianmeng and Xia Qianxue arrived in X City and went swimming together in their swimsuits before it got dark... "By the way, can you swim? Do you want me to teach you? I used to practice."

Seeing that Xia Qianmeng simply walked steadily after entering the sea without swimming at all, Xia Qianxue felt as if she had discovered a new continent. Did her sister not know how to swim?
"...Don't overthink it, I just suddenly remembered the training I did in the Shadow Group."

"What kind of training? Is it difficult?"

Xia Qianxue wrapped her arms around Xia Qianmeng's neck affectionately, then climbed onto Xia Qianmeng from behind, wanting Xia Qianmeng to carry her on her back.

Xia Qianmeng indulged the little girl's willfulness, while her mind drifted back to the past once again.

The training in the Shadow Group seemed to be the turning point in her life. Her master, Ye Ying, was like her second parent. But Ye Ying was ultimately just a human, not a god, and humans sometimes inevitably make mistakes. So she took the opportunity to leave the Shadow Group, but she did not say goodbye to her master forever.

"Gurgle, I don't understand."

Seeing that Xia Qianmeng was just reminiscing without saying anything, Xia Qianxue quickly got bored. She then let go of Xia Qianmeng again and went to swim in other places. The ocean water was just different.

Xia Qianxue was no ordinary person; she swam for a long time before feeling tired.

However, just as she was about to end her trip and go back to bother Xia Qianmeng, she suddenly felt as if something was pulling her foot...
