Boonie Bears: Another World Fantasy

"Faster, faster! Faster!!"

A seemingly insignificant silver light suddenly shot out from the wormhole, flying towards Na Ling's location at an extremely fast speed.

A shield as tall as a man shot forward in the direction Na Ling had swung his arm. Carrying a sharp gust of wind, it struck Lu Shu's face, which was covered by a heavy helmet, with unerring accuracy.

His body instantly lost its balance and he fell backward.

After gliding nimbly through the air, the shield landed steadily in Naling's outstretched hand.

The remaining armor components responded swiftly. Flowing liquid metal climbed up Naling's body and automatically assembled into leg armor sections and flowing skirt armor. Regaining her peak power, Naling gradually felt at ease—the fearlessness she once possessed as a Templar Knight surged back into her heart.

"What an obedient little darling." Na Ling couldn't put it down, stroking the iron shield in her hands. But soon, a feeling of loss washed over her.

"Where's my sword?! Why didn't it come with me?"

To everyone's surprise, Lu Shu raised his warhammer and hurled it at Na Ling. The impact sent her staggering backward, her shield-wielding hands nearly shattered by the force of the blow.

Taking advantage of the brief opening after his attack, she rolled quickly between the deer's legs. Then came a heavy blow to his right leg. He roared in pain, his attacks becoming increasingly precise as he slammed into Na Ling's surroundings. The resounding thuds made her ears ring.

Although the Deer-Shu was slow, this did not affect its agility. Its battering ram caused considerable trouble for Naling, who was facing it. After the warhammer was once again blocked by Naling's shield, this pure contest of strength made it difficult for her to gain the upper hand. So she deliberately dissipated the impact of the warhammer, lunged to the Deer-Shu's left side, grabbed its arm, and quickly climbed towards its blind spot—its back.

"I'll bleed you a little, you ugly freak!"

Na Ling raised her dagger and plunged it into the back of his neck, cutting a deep wound. Blood gushed out, creating a bloody curtain in the air.

The giant dropped his weapons, clutched the back of his neck, and staggered towards the abyss. Taking advantage of the moment, Na Ling raised his shield and slashed at his knee joint, breaking the Deer-like creature's leg and finally sending the troublesome monster plummeting into the abyss.

"Huff—" Exhausted, Na Ling collapsed at the edge of the abyss, helplessly looking down at the fully equipped Deer Clan army.

"Na Ling?!"

Several shouts came from the ruins of the Deer Cave; the newcomers were Sharp and Yeman, who had just fallen from the sky.

Na Ling mustered her strength and stood up again. Ye Man'er, who could tell at a glance that she was putting on a brave face, stepped forward and helped her up.

"It's too late. The wormhole has already formed, and the war is about to reach the city again..."

"Where is your army?" Yeman asked Sharp.

This question left Sharp speechless for a moment, so he could only guess and say, "Maybe, I mean maybe... we should wait over there."

“It’s no use coming. They’ve made thorough preparations this time. Even if the Templar Knights lose one Lefève, they still have nine left, not to mention the others…” Na Ling took out a syringe filled with purple stars from her waist and gestured for Sharp to come over and help her inject it.

“No one is helping us anymore. The Golden Antlers are in Serafina’s hands. We can only try our best to get them.” Naling placed the shield on the ground, and the three of them looked at the wormhole in the sky. Their figures seemed incredibly small in this vast scene.

"What's the plan?" Sharp slung the Blood Robe over his back, his eyes fixed on the faint figures in the ruins.

"Mus—what is he doing there?"

“He did nothing.” Yeman approached step by step, his spear poised to strike from behind. “He’s waiting for us.”

Sharp was about to move forward when he was stopped by Naling, who was still recovering.

“Senior, this kid isn’t going. Sharp, Naya is in Shenzhen, I need you to take her away.”

"What are you talking about?" Sharp frowned. "Little Na...?"

Na Ling lowered her head, as if she was preparing something, and then blurted out, "This matter cannot be explained in a few words. She is not dead... no, it should be said that her consciousness was taken away by something. Because of the self-healing ability given to her by the Golden Deer Antler, ordinary physical injuries cannot kill a Deer Clan member."

"You've known about this all along?" Sharp asked, somewhat incredulously, after realizing what had happened.

“Salta told me, but I could probably guess what it was.” Somewhat worried, Naling selectively concealed the fact that Naya, who was under Lefie’s control, had smashed the entire Deep City to pieces, after all, this was not a result that could be revealed casually.

Upon learning that Naya had been successfully rescued and was unharmed, Sharp felt a sense of relief.

“But this kid you’re talking about, he possesses the power that makes him the most likely among the three of us to defeat or even kill Mus.” Yeman wanted Sharp to stay. “Mus has never fought him, and besides, with Mavia’s support, Mus doesn’t know his every move. The two of us have had some contact with him before, especially you, Naling, he knows you inside and out.”

"Senior, you're too idealistic about him. This fool can't even wield a sword."

The discussion seemed to never yield a reasonable solution, leaving all three present with a difficult choice.

“Then that’s settled. You guys go first and seek help in Shenzhen. I can buy you some time to escape to the wormhole,” Ye Man’er volunteered.

"What is this, senior? Are you going to bear all this alone again?" Hearing her say this, Na Ling immediately shook her head in refusal, stepping in front of Ye Man'er and saying, "They came for me. They escaped this time, but what about next time?"

“You came here to rescue him from Mus, and now that you’ve been discovered, I’m covering your escape. It was all part of the plan, wasn’t it, Ling?” These kinds of words that left Na Ling speechless always appeared in every argument between her and Ye Man’er. The senior’s rationality and composure always impressed Na Ling.

As they spoke, Ye Man'er lifted Na Ling's hand and slowly placed a smooth conch shell into it.

“No one knows what the Deer Clan will be like after this battle. Serafina and Mus weren't entirely wrong, but... the price they paid was far too high.” Yeman squeezed Naling's hand tightly and said, “During the war between heaven and earth, I didn't expect you to survive, Naling. If I had known then, I definitely wouldn't have made this choice—”

Na Ling pursed her lips, trying to hold back her emotions, while constantly stroking Ye Man'er's hand.

"So you and Naya must continue on this path, to show the world what a true Deer Clan member with backbone and unyielding spirit should be like. The old royal family and violence can no longer be synonymous with the Deer Clan, and we will never bow to evil."

After Yeman finished speaking, the deer army in the abyss began to stir, as if sensing the weakness and panic on the other side.

The war is imminent.

“Kid, I’m lucky to have met you. Given the chance, I’ll definitely let you experience the Deer Clan’s hospitality again.” Ye Man’er stretched out her hand and tapped two fingers on his heart. “This time, it’s your turn to help me.”

"Master!!" Na Ling cried out.

A royal guard, sword drawn, leaped alone into the center of the ruins, his golden armor reflecting diamond dust.

......

Zhenxing Island.

The storm at the seaside is just passing the coastline and moving towards Shenzhen.

Giant waves crashed against the rocky walls of the isolated island, and strong winds, mixed with large raindrops, raged outside the research institute's ground buildings. Amidst the muffled rumbling, the underground of the robotics research institute was filled with the sounds of the waves crashing against the rocks.

"What's the situation in Shenzhen?"

"This is not good. The Deer Clan has opened a wormhole above the city, causing some imbalance in the nearby magnetic field and gravity."

"Wormhole?"

Halfway there, Salta kept repeating the word to himself.

"I can't help with that. That's a matter for other departments. I'm just here on orders to liaise with you."

"Docking? Does your military know what's going on here?" Su Luo took off his glasses and wiped them as he walked. "This is a very important secret."

"That's no secret to us, Dr. Su. What is secret is that the renowned Dr. Su Luo is actually secretly working with the V Group?"

"I was forced into this." Realizing that arguing with this person about this matter and whether he could escape punishment was pointless, Su Luo didn't waste any time and led Salta and a group of military observers into the Skyfire control room.

Upon entering, Salta was stunned by a giant eye directly facing the observation window. The single eye was flashing rhythmically at everyone, like a warning before activation.

"My God... how long has this thing been here?" Salta couldn't help but walk a little further forward. The Skyfire's dark purple body slowly retreated towards the far end of the observation window on a crane that resembled Mount Tai.

“It’s been a long time, almost a year.”

The signal lights on the crane went out and then quickly lit up again. Behind the machine, several thick transmission pipes hung down from the back of the Skyfire onto the gray support platform. Several research experts who had come with Salta began to whisper among themselves. Unfortunately, Su Luo was just at that distance and could hear what they were saying.

"What do you feed it? Fuel? Aviation fuel?" Salta, a complete novice in this field, could only ask questions. Sulo didn't shy away, pointing to the delivery pipes on the ground and explaining:

"The energy substance extracted from the raw materials of Purple Star is the purple stone left behind by a black hole in the center of Shenzhen City."

As the two were talking, assistant Xiao Luo jogged over from the passageway and whispered something in Su Luo's ear.

"Cooling system complete, hatch open, pilot please take your positions." The announcement that echoed through the control center made Salta's hair stand on end. Beside him, Su Luo calmly exhaled a few breaths, took off his coat, folded it neatly, and handed it to his assistant.

"So how does this thing move? Who's the driver?"

"You've come at the perfect time. Just wait and see, Captain Sa." Su Luo ripped off his glasses, his displeased gaze seeming to tell him:

Right now, besides her, who else is qualified to pilot this god-slaying machine?
