As soon as she heard Krayan’s words, Du Beiye narrowed her eyes and flicked her wrist. The next moment, her right bracelet turned into a sharp, thin dagger.
Before everyone could react, she had already dashed toward the leader. With her left hand grabbing his neck, she pulled him forward and moved to his back. At the same time, she kicked the woman away.
When she raised the blade, the woman lying on the ground several meters away shouted in fear, "Stop! What are you doing?!"
Everyone was shocked to see the gleaming blade pierce the back of their leader’s neck. The tip of the blade pierced the man’s nape, drawing blood and dyeing the man’s collar red.
Jiao Lizhi was taken aback by her sister’s action. But knowing that she wouldn’t do anything without a reason, she fully trusted her. Seeing the people attacking her sister, she raised her hand and created an ice barrier to block the incoming attacks.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The group launched their attacks, thinking that they would be able to take down the petite woman and save their leader. But before the attacks could even reach her, an ice shield suddenly appeared and blocked all of their attacks.
The fireballs exploded. The metal spear pierced the ice shield but was unable to break it. The wooden ball was even more useless; as it hit the ice shield, it was repelled.
Under the attacks, Du Beiye was as calm as a capybara. With a flick of her wrist, a small insect hidden five centimeters under the skin was dug out of the man’s nape. As the insect tried to escape, she reached out and grabbed it.
"Collect the specimen," she said.
The next second, the insect disappeared from her palm and was transferred to her system’s specimen storage. Everything happened in less than ten seconds.
When she finished dealing with the bug, she threw the man away. The leader fell to the ground with a thud. He lay there with his eyes closed, unmoving.
Seeing this, the young woman rushed over and asked angrily, "What did you do to my boyfriend?!"
Du Beiye wiped the blood on her hand with a piece of torn fabric and replied, "He has only fainted from shock. Just stop his bleeding, and he will be fine."
"Beiye, what happened?" Jin Xuyan asked.
"Captain, this man was implanted with a bug. He must know about that thing underground. Should we interrogate him?" Du Beiye asked.
Jiao Lizhi thought for a moment and asked, "Is he planted with a controlling bug?"
Du Beiye nodded and replied, "It’s a D-rank bug. It won’t be able to control him completely, but if it’s not removed, it will be able to destroy his brain the moment he fails his mission."
The moment she heard this, Jiao Lizhi frowned and turned to the group. "This place is not safe. There is a level-five mutant plant in the lowest underground level. If you don’t leave now, you might lose your lives. Go to the Green Lake Base."
When they heard her words, no one believed her. But before they could confront her, the ground shook. Everyone was shocked by the sudden situation.
"Earthquake!" one of them shouted as he quickly lay on the ground.
BOOM!
As the ground shook, it was pierced by countless thick roots. The roots were at least one meter thick, with tips as sharp as blades.
