"Ye Ying! Catch!"
Hui Ye Ai Li suddenly shouted and forcefully threw two potion bottles out of the vehicle.
Ye Ying quickly caught them.
The burly man seized the opportunity, suddenly raising his fists and swinging them from both sides, attempting to grapple Ye Ying!
Ye Ying immediately ignited her leg's qi, instantly dashing to evade the pincer grasp.
She immediately opened her head armor and poured both potion bottles into her mouth.
The potions dissolved instantly in her mouth.
Ye Ying's brain felt as if it had been pierced by bullets, a sharp pain.
An even more potent force surged through her entire body!
"What did you give her!?" Zhan Huo Wei exclaimed in alarm.
Hui Ye Ai Li chuckled, "You'll know soon enough."
Ye Ying's arms suddenly bulged!
With a "噗呲!" sound,
Her arms actually exploded!
Black blood and flesh scattered like a torrential rain onto the burly man.
The moment this blood and flesh touched the burly man, it all solidified into needle-thin mechanical insects, desperately burrowing into his body!
Astonishingly, these blood and flesh tissues remained attached to Ye Ying's arms,
But they had all transformed into metallic threads!
Ye Ying rapidly descended behind the burly man, her arms pulling on hundreds of fine metallic threads, yanking downwards with immense force!
The mechanical insects deeply embedded in the burly man's body were dragged by the immense power, like hundreds of sharp blades, tearing upwards and backward.
With several "噗呲呲..." sounds!
The burly man was cut open by hundreds of gashes!
Ye Ying swiftly severed all the metallic threads, her arm blades extended, and she leaped high from behind the burly man!
"Ultimate Skill! Offensive Synchronization!!"
The mechanical arm blades suddenly erupted in a tremor, the amplitude of the vibration extremely minute but the frequency incredibly fast!
Targeting the burly man's back, she unleashed a ferocious slash!!
The burly man's body bore a massive diagonal cross-shaped wound.
His left and right halves separated from his waist, sliced into two triangular shapes, sliding to either side.
The upper torso fell backward.
The lower limbs toppled forward.
He was truly cut into four pieces.
"Ning Yu, summon the mecha and get us out!!" Ye Ying called out loudly towards the entrance.
Ning Yu instantly conjured a thick metal block, obstructing the enemies' advance.
He quickly turned, removed his exoskeleton armor, and summoned a miniature Black Star transport mecha.
Ye Ying scooped up Gu Ya's body, leading Hui Ye Ai Li and Zhan Huo Wei into the mecha's rear cargo hold.
Everything was ready.
Ning Yu activated the mecha's propulsion and rushed to the edge of the elevated vehicle parking lot.
However, he discovered over a dozen fully armed Black Star mechas hovering in the sky!!
All the Black Star mechas' searchlights illuminated their position,
Bathing Ning Yu's mecha in bright light, leaving no place to hide!
At this moment, the massive metal block behind them was also breached.
Enemies poured in, all aiming their weapons at Ning Yu's mecha!
"This is bad! Caught between a rock and a hard place!!" Ning Yu yelled in panic.
Just as everyone was on the verge of despair,
A massive spatial rift tore open beneath the mecha's feet!!
Ning Yu tumbled into the solitary space,
The spatial rift immediately closed, and the group, under the watchful eyes of many, finally escaped.
Inside the solitary space,
Wang Shang Meng anxiously asked, "Are all our people here? Gu Ya, Ye Ying, Ning Yu, Sa Kuan, and Yoda!"
Liang Yu Wei replied, "I sent Sa Kuan to familiarize himself with the terrain."
"Yoda? Oh no!" Ning Yu panicked, suddenly remembering one more person they hadn't rescued!
Wang Shang Meng's heart fluttered, "Brother Liang, send me out, I need to go save Yoda!"
Suddenly, a muffled voice came from the hovercar's trunk: "No need to look, I'm here."
"Yoda!!??"
Not just Wang Shang Meng, but everyone was astonished!
Yoda said coldly, "I saw you sneak out furtively, so I followed. I got into the car earlier."
Liang Yu Wei calmly stated, "Let's leave quickly, this device can't support so many people."
Ten minutes later, on the rooftop of a skyscraper several kilometers away from the Black Unification Tower,
A spatial rift opened, and the hovercar and Black Star mecha flew out.
Ning Yu stored the vehicle and mecha into his [Void Parcel], and the group hid in a standby elevator changing room.
Liang Yu Wei looked at the two additional female scientists, his expression alert and slightly displeased.
"Why did you bring them along?" Liang Yu Wei asked Ye Ying coldly,
Implying that these two could very well bring danger.
Ye Ying reassured him, "They saved me, I couldn't just leave them to die."
Hui Ye Ai Li smiled serenely and said, "You don't need to mind me, I wasn't planning to stay long anyway. Hmm~ now is the time to leave."
"Little sister Ye Ying, see you again, hehe~"
"You can't leave!" Liang Yu Wei blocked Ai Li's path, stopping her coldly.
Ai Li looked up at the tall Liang Yu Wei, smiled charmingly,
She actually reached out and placed her hand on Liang Yu Wei's chest, adopting a coy demeanor and said flirtatiously, "Little Liang Liang, Auntie wants to leave, and you can't stop me, you know~"
Then, she flicked her finger upwards, lifting Liang Yu Wei's chin, and walked away directly.
"Little... Liang Liang? Pfft! Hahahahaha—!" Wang Shang Meng couldn't help but burst into laughter!
Liang Yu Wei looked at Ai Li's retreating back and murmured, "So it was her, I remember now."
"You know each other?" Ye Ying asked softly.
Liang Yu Wei replied, "Over twenty years ago, at the World Summit on Human Augmentation Surgery, we met briefly. I was only fifteen then."
"Hahahaha—!" Wang Shang Meng was still laughing!
Liang Yu Wei turned and punched him to the ground, then politely asked, "This lady, how should we handle her?"
Zhan Huo Wei sighed and said, "As you've seen, the other party is specifically targeting people from the research institute, I can't go back."
"Ning Yu, who are they?" Ye Ying asked.
Ning Yu was still savoring the memory of Ye Ying's heroic and valiant combat posture, his face full of admiration.
"Ning Yu?" Ye Ying's tone turned colder,
Ning Yu shivered in fright and quickly responded, "They're from the Military Intelligence Department. They intended to capture Madam and Brother Wang alive. Everyone else, kill them all."
Liang Yu Wei stroked his chin, calmly analyzing, "It seems Ye Ying and Xiao Meng's identities have been exposed."
"Ah~ then what do we do?" Ning Yu said anxiously:
"Black Star will definitely hunt us down with all their might. With Master gone, should we retreat or stay?"
Liang Yu Wei calmly said, "Ye Ying, call Gu Ya back!"
Ye Ying's expression faltered, she lowered her head, reluctant to speak for a long time.
Earlier that evening, she and Gu Ya had argued, and now she had to take the initiative to contact him, which was truly embarrassing.
Just then, Zhan Huo Wei's communicator rang.
She glanced at it; it was the research institute director. Just as she was about to answer, Liang Yu Wei firmly held her hand down.
"Danger. Black Star doesn't even spare their own people. At this time, trust no one!"
Zhan Huo Wei nodded, took off her communication bracelet, and stomped on it fiercely.
"Alright, hehe..." Zhan Huo Wei smiled regretfully and said helplessly, "I'm completely homeless now."
"Ah... no... I still have a home... but I don't want to go find him..."
Liang Yu Wei said coldly, "Who? Where?"
Zhan Huo Wei pinched her right index finger with her left hand and said extremely reluctantly, "Who else but the one in Shan Hai City."
"Zhan Huo Ji?" Liang Yu Wei asked.
Zhan Huo Wei nodded, her eyes glancing elsewhere, and nodded awkwardly, "My elder brother..."
Liang Yu Wei said calmly and quickly, "Retreat to advance, bend and stretch. Currently, our strength is insufficient to contend with Black Star."
"Gu Ya has likely already reached Shan Hai City. Have him come quickly to support us! Let's hurry!"
"Ye Ying!" Liang Yu Wei grabbed Ye Ying's wrist and said, "Only you can persuade Gu Ya. This isn't the time to be sulking, I'll teach him a good lesson for you later when we meet!"
"Ning Yu! Summon the mecha, let's go!"
Wang Shang Meng, lying on the ground, shouted, "Brother Liang, stop stepping! You're crushing my waist!"
"Dare to say those three words again, and I'll make you a eunuch." Liang Yu Wei removed his foot from Wang Shang Meng's waist.
Yoda came over and picked up Wang Shang Meng, saying coldly, "Serves you right!"
"What, you're conspiring against me?" Wang Shang Meng asked slightly surprised, supporting his waist.
"Next time you sneak away behind my back like that, I'll make you a eunuch too!" Yoda said irritably.
"Hehe..."
"Hahaha!"
Everyone else burst into laughter upon hearing this. Yoda always managed to surprise them.
Ning Yu summoned the Black Star mecha, forged all the necessary transit documents, and took everyone, flying towards the outskirts of the city.
Inside the cockpit, everyone was chatting and laughing, quickly putting the peril of their near-death escape behind them.
Only Ye Ying, in the corner, remained quiet and silent, gazing at Gu Ya's number with a lovesick expression.
After a long while, Ye Ying let out a sigh and dialed the number.
