How long had it been since she last held him in her arms?
The Ji clan’s base was running low on supplies, but the other shelters, suffering to varying degrees from the corrosive threat of the red snow, ignored their pleas for aid. Thus, the Ji family devised another plan: marriage alliance.
Once again, Ji Zhenhong, as expected, was offered up by her father and elder brother.
The intended groom was Liao Wanxun, the leading figure of the Sunrise Safe Zone. This man cared little for women and was not as easily manipulated as Liao Guangzheng and his son. He was not the first choice for a marriage alliance.
Yet, there was some relief: their base city was located not to the east, but to the south, away from the mutant horde’s path.
Huang Shan, with a precise shot from his right hand, followed by a burst from his left, quickly cleared the surrounding trees.
A massive stone gate loomed ahead, carved with two dark-skinned men holding long spears, facing each other. Each wore green leaves on their heads, adorned with eight white crystal spheres in total.
“Are you sure about this? This isn’t something you can do out of spite,” Jie Yulong said softly, frowning.
Even after four hundred years, the barrier still functioned perfectly. Grand Magus Kaland’s power exceeded my expectations—I had no confidence in creating such a thing myself.
“Alright, the three outlaw tanks are lying in wait in the grass, silent. Are they waiting for their teammates to attack?” Autumn Breeze dangled the question before the audience.
When Huo Bohao heard the scholarship amount, he was stunned. He hadn’t expected that, while his son was still studying, his annual scholarship would far exceed his own salary.
As soon as Bu Hui emerged from the grass, he spotted the E100, its turret swaying left and right in search of Bu Hui’s position.
At this moment, they were still strolling beneath the eaves of the southern building, one in front of the other. He Ziyan showed no sign of urgency; her air of calm confidence quietly reassured Leng Ran.
“Come, come, let’s have a drink! To befriend someone like Brother Tang today is a rare fortune in three lifetimes! By the way, hasn’t the Queen Mother arranged a martial arts contest to choose a husband for Biqiong and Biluo? If Brother Tang is interested, success is all but certain!” Yan Ge, back to his unfiltered ways, addressed the young lord with a grin.
The enemy, not knowing Qin Yang’s appearance, sent assassins after You Ran, who also held a high position, hoping to sow discord.
“How is it? Have you reached anyone over the radio?” Bjort asked his subordinate, General Kopra.
But just then, a beam of green light suddenly shot toward Wang Ying with a swift whistle.
What the submarine crews loved most about the Type XXI submarine wasn’t its astonishing underwater speed or advanced equipment, but its loading system.
In the main hall of Linjiang City, the four elders and the Left Protector, Gou Hun, who had led the reinforcements, were in council.
Since Feng Hao said the issue was resolved, Zhang Yizi could do nothing more than eat her meal in haste, waiting for the opening of the first Martial Arts Tournament at noon.
Honestly, if Team Son48 could botch things so badly even without any competition, they were truly a rare breed.
The European commentators, seeing the Darkin Swordmaster’s positioning and strategy, were already anticipating a 1v2 from the champion.
The audience watched intently as Mo Qi, shrouded in black paper, struggled beneath the lights, his head and limbs twitching—a clear sign he was still inside the box.
In my youth, I once trapped a bamboo rat inside. In the end, the creature’s breath grew faint and it nearly suffocated to death.
When Xiaotian awoke, he had no idea how many days and nights had passed—all he knew was pain, pain everywhere. He checked his arms and legs—both were intact, and only then did he feel at ease.
As for making his own coffin by cutting down trees from the mountain, there was no hope; the authorities forbade the common folk from cutting timber, as the trees were government property. Anyone caught would be fined.
