Chapter 681: Taught a Lesson
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Ah Yu and Qin Huai had an extremely strong tacit understanding. They didn’t need to say much to know what the other party wanted to do.
For example, now, Ah Yu quietly bent down and tiptoed around a few bushes. Qin Huai had already taken out his dagger and picked away the vines beside him.
At this moment, they could see the other party’s movements, but they were actually not close. If they wanted to take a step closer, they had to take the risk of being discovered.
Ah Yu wanted to get closer. Relying on her small size, she crawled around in the bushes. Qin Huai followed closely behind and helped her clear the way.
He didn’t even ask her why.
As for the remaining secret guards, they could only work hard to help clean up the mess. They tried their best to cover up the traces of their pa.s.sage and not let anyone discover that they were two children.
Just in case.
“Elf, 1 realized that there are no missions in such a big place?”
[There are, but it’s not important. Just be careful. Don’t worry about anything else.]
Meatbail glanced at the words “Main Mission—Destroy the rebel organization” and ignored it.
What a joke. How old was the child?
For such a huge mission, even if they found hundreds of elite agents, they might not be able to complete it. Let Ah Yu go? Of course not.
Although it protected Ah Yu and would not let her be injured, what if her skin was scratched? What if she was frightened?
When Meatball saw Qin Huai’s people discover the situation over there. It was afraid that Ah Yu would be tricked without knowing anything, so it told All Yu. However, this did not mean that it was willing to let Ah Yu take the risk.
It would be fine to experience it a little. It would just treat it as letting her play a game.
As for the events later, the Empress would definitely not ignore this matter.
She loved to work so much and protect the safety of her people, both publicly and privately.
“No?” Ah Yu was puzzled for a moment before putting this matter aside. Then, she poked Qin Huai and gestured at him.
She wanted him to stay where he was and wait for her.
Qin Huai shook his head and stretched out two fingers, gesturing for them to move together.
Ah Yu mouthed, “Alright, follow me closely.”
It was dark and windy, so Qin Huai did not see it clearly. However, he guessed what Ah Yu wanted to say, so he nodded and followed.
Qin Huai’s movement technique was very good, and he could be ranked medium among the Crimson Guards.
If he specialized in martial arts and practiced for another four to five years, he might be ranked among the top few.
After the two of them walked past the bushes, they circled around to a place without the moonlight. All Yu asked Little Lamb to lead the way. She pulled a rope around Little Lamb’s body and held the rope with one hand and Qin Huai with the other as they continued walking.
The two of them climbed down the small mountain in front of them and stopped moving forward. Little Lamb also stopped in place and shook its head.
About 400 to 500 feet away from them, two people were standing guard. As they were still a distance away from the main camp, they were not especially vigilant when they were standing guard.
Ah Yu patted Little Lamb’s back and it walked forward while chewing gra.s.s.
Soon, the two people on guard heard a commotion, and it was getting louder and louder.
“Who is it?!”
They raised the weapons in their hands and were about to get torches from the side.
One of them shouted, “Stop!”
The commotion did not stop. Instead, it rushed forward even faster.
“Quickly inform the boss that there’s an enemy attack—” After the person on the left shouted, he raised his spear and went forward.
Just as the person on the right was about to run, he suddenly felt his entire body fly up and quickly fall down the mountain.
“All!”
The people not far away from them also heard it and immediately shouted in panic, “Enemy attack!”
News spread like wildfire. Soon, someone rushed over with a torch, but they were especially cautious. Most of them only a.s.sumed a defensive posture and did not move.
The person who was first knocked down the mountain had already fainted. When the other person saw that his companion was injured and was about to fight, he also felt himself being ruthlessly knocked down and flew down.
More people ran over, but because this was a small hill, it was not convenient for them to run. Therefore, more people were sent flying and fell into the ravine. Their fate was unknown.
More and more people came over. Ah Yu and Qin Huai changed to a more hidden location and even squeezed out the original position of a secret guard.
When Ah Yu turned around, she realized that there was something furry beside her. She turned around and saw that it was Little Lamb.
Little Lamb stuffed its head into Ah Yu’s arms as if it was asking for credit.
Ah Yu was shocked. If Little Lamb was here, who barged in?
She originally wanted Little Lamb to attract the attention of those people and they would take advantage of the chaos to approach. Unexpectedly, the effect was already beyond her expectations..
