A passing traveler through the heavens
Chapter 62 Rescuing Rona
And so, Ji Lin and his group infiltrated the cult's camp and arrived at their base. Before long, they reached a cave inside a mountain.
Inside the cave, candlelight flickered, and a group of cult members sat together, each with a serious expression, holding a meeting in a solemn manner.
Just then, a burly, menacing-looking cult leader suddenly stood up, glanced around, and finally fixed his gaze on Amei.
He smirked, revealing a malicious smile, then walked over to Amei, grabbed her arm without hesitation, and forcibly dragged her away from the venue.
Upon seeing this, Ji Lin's heart tightened, and he quickly lowered his voice to discuss with Meng Bo and Alan beside him: "The situation is not good! That small leader seems to have ill intentions towards Amei."
After frowning and thinking for a moment, Meng Bo said, "How about this, Allen and I will go find Rona first, and you go protect Amei."
"Also, take this opportunity to find out where the other God Armed Forces are." Ji Lin nodded, indicating his agreement with the arrangement.
So the group immediately split up and began their separate actions. However, they were completely unaware that their every move had already been observed by the cult leader.
At this very moment, in a secret chamber deep within the cave, several menacing cult members are surrounding the unconscious Rona.
One of them was holding a syringe filled with a mysterious green potion.
As the needle slowly pierced Rona's slender arm, the strange liquid was injected into her body.
This drug has a very strong controlling effect, which can cause a person to completely lose their autonomy for the next three days and unconditionally obey all the instructions of the drug user.
The cult members looked at their masterpiece with smug satisfaction.
They decided to deliberately let Luo Na go, luring Ji Lin and others to come to her rescue, so that they could take advantage of the situation and reclaim the God Armor that originally belonged to them.
Meanwhile, Ji Lin followed Amei's trail and arrived at the door of a seemingly ordinary room.
Just as he was about to approach the door to listen carefully to what was happening inside, suddenly, a cry for help came from inside the room—it was Amei's voice!
Ji Lin's expression changed drastically. Without thinking, he kicked the tightly closed door hard.
With a loud bang, the door was kicked open by Ji Lin, and he immediately saw the cult leader leering at Amei as he attempted to assault her.
Ji Lin was instantly enraged and cursed, "You son of a bitch, how dare you touch my woman!"
Before he finished speaking, he moved like lightning, kicking the leader hard.
The leader was sent flying far away like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily into the wall and instantly losing consciousness.
Ji Lin rushed to Amei's side and asked with concern, "Amei, are you alright? Are you hurt?"
Amei trembled slightly as she looked up at Ji Lin, her eyes filled with his image.
Perhaps it was Ji Lin's incredibly brave performance just now, or perhaps it was his domineering words, "Dare to touch my woman?" that moved her heart. At this moment, Amei only had Ji Lin in her heart.
After confirming that Amei was alright, Ji Lin turned around and walked to the unconscious cult leader, and began to carefully examine him.
A short while later, he found a set of keys in the leader's pocket.
Then, Ji Lin took Amei's hand and said softly, "Don't be afraid, I'll take you to meet up with Meng Bo and the others."
The two carefully navigated the maze-like buildings and finally spotted a lone cult member. Without saying a word, Ji Lin grabbed the man by the collar and shouted sternly.
"Tell me! Where are you holding the hostages?" The cult member was terrified and stammered out the location where the hostages were being held.
Following the information provided by the cult members, Ji Lin and Amei quickly arrived at their destination.
As soon as they got closer, they saw three cult members lying haphazardly on the ground, clearly unconscious. In front of these people stood Meng Bo and Alan.
Ji Lin took the bunch of keys out of his pocket and slowly inserted them into the door lock.
With a soft click, the door opened. The room was dimly lit, but you could still make out the dazed, curled-up figure in the corner—it was Rona!
The group rushed into the room and went to Rona's side.
Her eyes were vacant and lifeless, and she was muttering to herself, as if she had lost her soul.
Meng Bo and the others felt a chill and quickly helped Luo Na up and walked her outside. However, they did not know that Luo Na had already been controlled by a mysterious drug and had completely lost her self-awareness.
Ji Lin led the group out of the cave quickly. The sunlight was a bit too bright, causing them to squint.
Ji Lin was the first to jump onto the car parked not far from the cave entrance, and then reached out to pull his companions behind him. When he grabbed Rona's arm, he transmitted a burst of energy to her.
After rescuing Luo Na, Ji Lin recalled a scene from a story about two brothers, one dragon and one tiger.
So, when he grabbed Rona's arm, he didn't hesitate to activate the power of the horse talisman within him and transfer it into Rona's body through his palm.
Immediately afterwards, Lorna's previously blank face began to come alive, and her eyes regained their sparkle.
A few seconds later, the drug in Rona's body was completely cleared, and she finally regained consciousness. Rona looked around blankly, still a little confused about what was going on.
But when she saw the familiar faces of Meng Bo and Alan beside her, she seemed to understand something, and obediently shut her mouth without asking any questions.
Meanwhile, inside a cave, through a hidden window, the cult leader was staring intently at the direction Ji Lin and his group had gone.
A sinister smile crept across his face, and he secretly rejoiced that his meticulously planned conspiracy was about to succeed.
But to his utter surprise, Ji Lin easily broke the control he had placed on Luo Na...
By the time I returned to my temporary lodgings, night had already fallen.
Amei has successfully booked the earliest flight for the next day. The whole process went exceptionally smoothly, beyond everyone's expectations.
After everyone returned to their own rooms, Ji Lin tiptoed to Amei's door.
He raised his hand and gently knocked on the door. After a moment, the door slowly opened, and Amei standing in the doorway caught Ji Lin's eye.
Amei appeared to be preparing to take a shower, wearing a gorgeous and sexy nightgown, the thin material subtly outlining her graceful figure.
Amei looked at Ji Lin with some doubt and asked softly, "Is there something you need to see me about so late?"
Ji Lin smiled slightly and used the system space to take out a beautifully packaged bottle of red wine and two exquisite stemmed glasses from his back.
He said to Amei, "The moonlight is so enchanting tonight. Would you mind having a drink and a chat with me?"
Amei hesitated for a moment, but seeing Ji Lin's sincere eyes, she finally nodded readily and replied, "Okay!"
The two entered the room and sat at the small table beside the bed.
Ji Lin skillfully opened the wine bottle and filled their glasses. As the first sip of wine went down their throats, the initially somewhat reserved atmosphere gradually relaxed.
They began to speak freely, and laughter echoed in the room from time to time.
Before they knew it, they had finished a few glasses of red wine, and Ji Lin got up and suggested going to the window to enjoy the night view outside.
Amei readily agreed, picked up her wine glass, and went to the window with Ji Lin. At that moment, the bright moonlight shone down on the earth like water, draping everything around them in a layer of silver gauze.
Bathed in the hazy moonlight, the entire atmosphere seemed to be tinged with a faint pink hue, dreamlike and enchanting.
Ji Lin and A Mei stood quietly by the window, their eyes meeting.
For a moment, time seemed to stand still, with only their breathing and heartbeats mingling together.
Finally, Amei tilted her head back slightly, gently swirling the wine glass in her hand. Her beautiful eyes slowly closed, as if waiting for a sweet kiss...
