I will swear to protect the beauty with my life

Let's go back half a day.

The sun gradually sets, and the light red sky begins to deepen in color, slowly turning into inky black, and night is approaching.

Ikeuchi Maki and Fang Wuwei were sitting aside, quietly waiting for the night to arrive.

"Master... that is to say..."

"We have fallen into a trap and have become their pawn."

Fang Wuwei sighed deeply, feeling helpless in his heart. His hands fell weakly on his knees. This was really beyond his expectations.

According to the information obtained by Ikeuchi Maki, there was only one person and one device that was continuously outputting power, but they were able to transport a considerable amount of magic crystals early this morning. This was irrational no matter how you looked at it.

How could one person produce so much with such a low output? And according to the exploration, the underground space was quite huge, but there was nothing there, not a single living person was seen, no staff, no production manager, and even only one researcher.

This is almost an open conspiracy. It is an obvious trap, and it is even shouting at you to step into it.

But Fang Wuwei had no temper at all, because even if this was really a trap, he had to step on it twice.

There are only two situations now. Either Ye Tian himself stays inside and waits for them to fall into his trap, or he lets them go and rescue people before proceeding to the next step.

This made Fang Wuwei think of the old man who sold the magic crystal to him, and he felt a headache.

That person is definitely a member of the Far East Society, and now the two of them have been used as guns by that group of people from the Far East.

What kind of observation ability can tell at a glance that Fang Wuwei is hostile to Ye Tian, ​​or dissatisfied with the entire magic aristocracy, so he would target him...

The people from the Far East Society stole the magic crystal, which attracted the attention of these people and even Ye Tian.

Ye Tian set up a tight net here, waiting for the people from the Far East to respond. The people from the Far East Society didn't dare to come again, so he watched the opportunity and let Fang Wuwei take the next step on their behalf.

He had been plotted against by both sides, and this feeling made Fang Wuwei feel very aggrieved.

Things have come to this, and since the person imprisoned inside is a member of the Ikenai clan, it would be difficult for them to just stand by and watch him die. If he just left like that, there's no guarantee that Ikenai Maki would be unhappy.

What's more... this is the only clue, so it would be better to take advantage of the situation and use it to lure Ye Tian and Yuandong out, forcing the two gangs to come out in the open before him, so that he can take a certain initiative and avoid looking for them everywhere.

But before that, he needs to clarify Ye Tian’s current attitude towards this matter, whether he intends to kill on the spot with thundering means, or to play the long game to hook a big fish.

He prefers the latter.

......................................................

Time returns to the present.

Fang Wuwei was killing people outside and got into the crowd to act like an unrivaled warrior, while Ikeuchi Maki was wearing an invisibility cloak and sneaking into the factory.

At this moment, she ignored the deafening noise outside and headed towards the basement.

Along the way, she passed many people. Some of them went against her and rushed towards Fang Wuwei, while some others... ran faster than her.

She entered the underground area without any hindrance.

Faced with the locked door, Ikeuchi Maki no longer had to worry about triggering the alarm or being besieged. She took out Stormy Kishi, charged her sword, and with one blow she cut off the door lock and entered.

He kicked the door open with a fierce kick, and there was a loud collision sound between steel. Maki Ikeuchi didn't hesitate at all, just covered her footsteps and rushed directly to the basement.

It was quiet inside, not even the lights were on, and there was no one else inside, not even in the fully glass office.

There was only a few spots of fluorescent light shining from the corner not far away.

Ikeuchi Maki hid her steps and slowly walked towards the corner, holding the Arashikiri tightly in her hand, her mind was highly tense, and she was ready to fight the enemy at any time.

Fortunately, there was nothing there, no enemies waiting in the blind spot to launch a sneak attack, and no traps waiting for her to step on.

Even looking around, she didn't find a second person in the basement.

All she could see was the device that produced the magic crystals and her people who were soaking in it.

Ikeuchi Maki stood quietly in front of him, looking at him silently, her palms clenched unconsciously.

What consequences would come from saving him, this tribe member... She didn't know.

But she knew that this was only the first step in her revenge, only the first step in the Ikeuchi family's revenge.

Without any hesitation, Ikeuchi Maki opened his invisibility cloak, raised his sword high, condensed the power of the wind in it, hovered and roared above Storm Blade, and chopped it down with one blow, smashing the imprisoned glass into pieces.

The glass shattered into pieces and floated in the air, reflecting the light from the equipment. It was filled with nutrient solution and eventually fell to the ground, covering the ground with the liquid, forming a water stain.

The old man soaking inside also fell out. Being unconscious, he naturally did not move at all. He just fell straight down, and was about to hit the glass shards. Maki Ikeuchi quickly reached out her hand, caught him steadily, and carried him on her shoulder.

But she didn't see that the moment she caught the old man, the part of the old man that was in contact with her flashed a bright light, and then dimmed in an instant.

To be honest, an old man who looks older than her father, and is naked, is carried on her shoulders... Although Maki Ikeuchi understands that there is nothing she can do about it, she still feels uncomfortable.

Suddenly I remembered that old man from last night... Ugh...

Although Ikeuchi Maki felt bad, she didn't act pretentiously. She put on the invisibility cloak again, covering both herself and the old man, then quickly climbed to the surface and left.

But as soon as she walked out of the basement, she suddenly heard a burst of urgent alarms and saw red lights flashing in the hall.

"There! There!"

Before she could react, she heard a roar. Looking towards the source of the sound, Ikeuchi Maki saw someone pointing at her with an angry face, which seemed to have exposed her position.

At the same time, a group of people discovered her location and rushed towards her directly, with magic missiles following one after another.

That's right, she was carrying a living person on her shoulders, so she couldn't come and go freely...

In that case, let’s get started.

Seeing that the invisibility cloak could no longer work, Ikeuchi Maki directly opened it and stuffed it back into the space bracelet in order not to damage this precious prop. She held the drooping thigh of the person on her shoulder with one hand to steady him from falling, and took out Stormy Kirei with the other hand, ready to face the aggressive enemy.

Facing the incoming long-range attack, Ikeuchi Maki slashed the ground with his knife, injecting the power of the gale into the ground, which then rose high to form an extremely long and narrow wind wall that deflected all magical attacks. He then hid behind the wind wall, quietly waiting for the enemies to rush through the wind wall and engage in hand-to-hand combat.
