Chapter 222 The General's Assassination
Chapter 222 The General's Assassination
"Sigh, another one coming to die."
The soldiers around him did not stop Lin Sheng after he barged in.
They simply exchanged a glance and sighed inwardly.
"General, please stop. I have something to say."
Seeing Lin Sheng suddenly barge into the battlefield, Yingxin thought to herself, "Oh no."
Because she had already guessed what Lin Sheng was going to say.
"Lin Sheng, don't talk nonsense, get out of here right now!"
Ying shouted a warning to Lin Sheng, who had rushed into the battlefield, but her voice couldn't reach him because of Bai Mu's divine power and the Thunder General's imposing presence.
Just then, General Thunder suddenly sheathed her sword again. She looked at Lin Sheng with interest, wanting to see what this person who dared to barge in at this moment would say.
The sudden relaxation of the oppressive aura around her made Ying relax. She wanted to speak again to remind Lin Sheng, but Lin Sheng beat her to it.
"Your Excellency General, please take a look at this."
Lin Sheng held up the divine power crystal that Bai Mu had given him high, and remembering Bai Mu's previous instructions, he straightened his chest and said neither humbly nor arrogantly:
“This was given to me by Mr. Shiraki. I am Mr. Shiraki’s person.”
"Sir, you are a friend of your Inazuma Raijin. Please give Mr. Shiraki or Lord Raijin some face and release my friend, okay?"
"It's over."
Ying and Paimon both facepalmed, as if they were seeing again the scene where they confidently talked to General Thunder.
Seeing the slight upturn of General Lei Dian's lips, Ying was ready to rescue Lin Sheng at any moment.
"Get out of here, I won't kill you."
To Ying's surprise, General Lei Dian did not kill Lin Sheng because of his relationship with Bai Mu.
After General Thunder finished speaking, Lin Sheng's body flew backward uncontrollably.
But from Lin Sheng's slightly rising and falling chest, Ying could still tell that Lin Sheng was not dead.
In fact, when General Thunder saw what Lin Sheng took out, he wanted to kill Lin Sheng on the spot.
But after she saw Lin Sheng's condition clearly, she gave up the idea of killing him.
Lin Sheng is different from Ying. She possesses great strength and is also Bai Mu's friend. Furthermore, in Ying's eyes, she is an "anomaly".
With all these buffs stacked up, Ying was a sure-kill in the eyes of the Thunder General.
But Lin Sheng is different; his strength and status haven't reached that level.
In General Lei Dian's eyes, Lin Sheng was more like Bai Mu's junior.
Even if General Lei Dian and Bai Mu have a grudge, she would never kill Bai Mu's junior.
Because doing so would lower her status.
In other words, given Lin Sheng's current strength and status, he is not worthy of being killed by her.
...
Yingxin breathed a sigh of relief after glancing at Lin Sheng, who was still breathing on the ground.
At least, Lin Sheng shouldn't be dead.
If Lin Sheng died right under her nose, she wouldn't be able to explain it to Bai Mu.
"It's your turn."
After dealing with Lin Sheng, General Thunder turned his attention back to Ying and Paimon.
"Your fates were already sealed."
"Hiding in this turtle shell is just delaying the process."
General Thunder swung his sword again, and lightning collided with the barrier. Even though the barrier remained sturdy, Ying couldn't help but feel a sense of tension.
No matter how strong the outer barrier was, the divine power that Bai Mu gave her was limited.
But this is Inazuma, and the power of the Thunder General is almost limitless here, while Shiraki's power will eventually be exhausted.
"Ying, hurry up and think of a solution!"
"If we don't find a way out, we're really going to die here."
"I don't want to die yet, I haven't eaten..."
Paimon paced anxiously around Ying, but even as she was dying, she couldn't forget about delicious food.
"Don't worry, I'm trying to figure something out."
While nervously watching the remaining divine power in the crystal, Ying's mind raced.
She thought of many solutions in a short period of time, but she rejected them all.
Finally, Ying sighed softly.
"Try to see if you can get Bai Mu over here."
Upon hearing Ying's words, Paimon's eyes lit up.
She felt that Ying was simply a genius.
At this point, only Shiraki can save the day, right?
Bai Mu's meager divine power was enough to protect them for so long. If Bai Mu himself came, wouldn't they be able to be rescued immediately?
Thinking of this, Paimon didn't care about anything else and simply made a megaphone shape with her hands around her mouth:
"?!"
"Shiraki, can you hear me?"
"Help! Shiraki!"
After a while, seeing that his calls were not being answered, Paimon began to get a little anxious.
"Bai Mu, I'm fucking idiot! Come save me, I'm fucking idiot! This woman is trying to kill us!"
"If you don't come soon, we're really going to die!"
"Oh!"
Paimon, who was shouting excitedly, was suddenly slapped into the ground and couldn't be dug out.
Ying, standing nearby, stared in disbelief at the scene.
Paimon actually brought Shiraki here!
"How did you manage to upset her like this?"
Ying rolled her eyes at Bai Mu.
She was about to speak when the Thunder General's attack became even more ferocious upon seeing Bai Mu.
"Forget it, don't say anything now. You can talk to me after I've dealt with her."
Bai Mu withdrew the divine power that had enveloped the surroundings.
The moment he withdrew his divine power, General Thunder's blade came crashing down on him.
"Dang~"
A sound like the tolling of a bell came from the top of the white wood, and the blade stopped at the top of the wood, unable to advance even an inch.
General Thunder, refusing to believe it, pressed the blade down harder, but no matter how hard she tried, the blade couldn't advance an inch.
At that moment, General Thunder lowered his head and happened to see that White Wood was also looking at her.
At this moment, Bai Mu's lips curled up slightly, revealing a mixture of mockery, ridicule, and contempt on his face.
"Rubbish."
The two words, spoken lightly, seemed to carry immense force, striking General Lei Dian's chest with tremendous force.
General Leidian felt a tightness in her chest. After studying language skills for some time, she felt that even if she couldn't out-argue Bai Mu, she wouldn't be too far behind.
But this time, Bai Mu only used two words, leaving her speechless.
After studying diligently for dozens of days, he couldn't even out-argue someone who casually uttered two words. General Lei suddenly felt a surge of blood rushing to his head.
"You and I..."
"puff..."
Before losing consciousness, General Thunder only vaguely heard this sentence:
"The general has been assassinated! Seal off the entire area!"
