Chapter 1355 Narrowly Escaped Death
I felt he was all show and no substance. He couldn't write a few decent poems, but he was adept at drinking, gambling, and whoring.Minmin pulled a disgusted face and continued, "Mom,"“That chief body...Ripple immediately opened her mouth to express her opinion, drawing the attention of all five special operatives present.
Facing these people's somewhat oppressive gazes, Ripple simply calmly patted Feng's head and then raised her eyes to look directly at Bai and said:
Mr. Bai, haven't you noticed that Miss Tina is eyeing my personal space
Although I haven't witnessed the capabilities of your special operatives, forcefully separating me from my life space shouldn't be difficult. I won't risk losing my life space and scattering my soul for a single mission, but I am willing to accept the consequences of a failed mission.
Tina, a woman with straight, short hair, remained impassive. Only her eyes grew deeper, colder as she spoke in a chilling tone:
"You're so bold, daring to challenge us. You really think we can't do anything to you."
Ripple's face remained unchanged as she jumped off the whirlwind, simultaneously sending both Whirlwind and Doudou into space. She calmly spoke:
"You are indeed stronger than me, both in power and experience. But that doesn't mean I can't resist. Knowing full well what kind of predicament I'd be falling into, why would I jump in"
The ripples have decided to give up on this mission, and she also remembered the few people in front of her. In the future, if there is an opportunity, she will definitely return the favor.
Ripple had already contacted Stone Mill, asking them to abandon this mission. Although communication was intermittent, Ripple still explained her situation. Even the good-natured Stone Mill narrowed his phoenix eyes.
It was a coincidence that Director Cen was there. He was particularly concerned about Lianyi's mission progress, especially her first collaboration with a special tasker. This presented an opportunity for Lianyi to interact with the special taskers, understand their mission content and nature, and get acquainted with them. This would make the transition smoother in the future. However, they didn't expect such a situation to arise on the very first attempt.
Director Cen opened his wristwatch display with a serious expression, then brought up the mission details for this special operative. He frowned immediately, tapping several times on the screen, and said to Shi Ju who was waiting for Lian Ri's return:
"Just wait and see how Captain Bai handles this."
The millstone wore its anxieties plainly, muttering in a low voice:
"If ripples are dangerous..."
"Don't worry, this is her first time performing a special mission. She has a protection period."
Director Cen calmly said.
The ripples on the other side had received the response from the stone mill, and she grew more stable. However, she would never fully entrust her life to another person, and she was also prepared to fight back. After all, it was impossible for her to surrender without a struggle. Even if her space was destroyed, she wouldn't let others have an easy victory.
The white watch vibrated, and he lowered his gaze to finish reading the message. Then, he waved his hand to stop Tina's foolish output, gazing directly at Ripples:
"Why do you say Tina is coveting your personal space"
Because she doesn't!
How can you be sure she doesn't have it
If she had a space capable of holding souls, would she even need to protect me There are countless souls in this entire plane waiting for you to relocate them. Only five people have come, and it will take ages to move them all. How could Captain Bai possibly spare manpower to protect me
It's said to be protection, but it's actually guiding me on how to complete the task. However, Tina doesn't see it that way; she believes it's an opportunity you've given her to seize my personal space.
Anyway, I'm just a low-ranking agent. It's not a big deal if I make a mistake in this complicated mission and end up dispersed. As long as others can prove Tina didn't do anything wrong, you just need to write a report and that's it.
The ripples of the words finally caused a change in Tina's expression; she did indeed think so.
Bai also noticed Tina's complexion, the displeasure in his eyes flashed past, he knew he shouldn't have brought this trouble. If it wasn't for owing Tina's brother a favor, he wouldn't be questioned by someone who wasn't even considered a rookie today.
Yao, Ying, and Zhuang remained silent, arms crossed, watching the commotion. After all, Tina wasn't someone they were taking with them.
Bai Guo waved his hand and opened a teleportation gate. To Tina's disbelief, he sent the person through it.
Liàn Yī after seeing it also knew when to stop. After all, being able to open the teleportation gate without relying on the communicator meant their cultivation level was at least above Earth Immortal realm. As the captain, she had already dealt with the unstable factor, so she could just focus on completing the mission.
White Team Leader did this partly as a warning. Ripple was quite sensible, and she had already made up her mind that after this mission, she would tell Stone Mortar that she wouldn't take missions involving special taskers anymore. She would wait until she reached the same level as these people before considering cooperation.
These ripples of thought were just for a fleeting moment, yet she remained outwardly calm as she watched the hostile Tina being escorted away.
Captain Bai turned his head and said:
Now that the obstacles are cleared, you need to complete the task on your own. Any problemsore starting her research on yesterday's list of contacts that Sun Shanshan had organized.After a while, everyone entered the office. When Li and Qian Siming finished reviewing the list, they decided...
