Chapter 124
Everyone was stunned for a moment.
The person standing in front of Luo Er was one of the men in black, but he was obviously not one of them. As he pulled Luo Er behind him, the two men in black closest to him were attacked by something and fell down without a sound.
The man in black stopped Luo Er behind him with one hand, raised the brim of his hat with the other hand, and said, "I'm sorry, I can't let you take this child away. Since no one else has been alerted yet, why don't we just let it go?"
Under the brim of the hat was a face with stiff muscles and a dull expression. It was obvious that the visitor was wearing a mask. Although he did not reveal his true face, his voice was very distinctive, with a low and hoarse voice full of magnetism and a unique mature charm. Even though the situation was tense at the moment, his voice seemed to have a faint smile, as if people could see a gentle smiling face behind the mask.
Semillian frowned, and without wasting time asking questions like "Who are you?" or "When did you sneak in?", he uttered a short word: "Kill!"
When the other men in black rushed towards the man, Semillian took a step back and took out a half-moon-shaped black ring from his arms. The sharp end of the ring pointed at the strange man in black. When Lor saw his action, his face changed drastically and he shouted, "Be careful!"
The man in black was incredibly agile. He swung his arms and seemed to have just turned around. While the afterimage of his arms was still in sight, blood was gushing out of the throats of several enemies around him. The man didn't stop at all. He hugged Luo Er like a nimble leopard and kicked his feet. Luo Er felt that he flew several meters away along the ground. The book in his hand flew out under the violent acceleration. He even felt a strong urge to vomit when he landed.
At this time, a low buzzing sound came from behind them.
The man in black looked back and saw a black hole appeared out of nowhere where he had just stood. The black color seemed to swallow up even light. The hole was fleeting, perhaps only lasting less than a second, but within the affected area, the ground, the bookshelf, part of the man in black who attacked him, and the book that fell in midair all disappeared.
"This weapon is so dangerous! Is it the legendary artificial black hole? We don't have such technology here yet!" The man in black said jokingly, but his eyes became sharp behind the mask.
After he finished speaking, the remaining bodies fell to the ground.
Lor bit his lip and looked at the range of the black hole. Even though Semillian was targeting the man in black and he deliberately avoided it, the black hole still covered half of Lor's body. Even if he started to dodge when he saw Semillian take out the ring, he would at least lose half of his leg.
The other men in black were already dead, but Semillian was not in a hurry. He just looked a little regretful. He pointed the ring at the two of them, looked at Lor with regret, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Master. I wanted to take you out intact. Now, I have to inconvenience you."
As he spoke, Lor quickly whispered to the man in black, "This weapon can be used three times when fully charged, but if the last two times are used together, it can form a black hole with a radius of 3.5 meters. The interval between uses is 4.6 seconds."
The man in black smiled and comforted him: "Although weapons are scary, it still depends on who holds them. Don't worry, I am the best fighter on this planet."
Having said that, judging from his tense body, the man in black is actually not as relaxed as he appears.
"How shameless!"
Semillian sneered and was about to press the ring when his face suddenly changed and he cursed in a low voice: "Damn it!" Then he turned around without hesitation, ran two steps, jumped up, flipped out of the window, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
Lor and the other man were confused when they saw a piece of the ceiling of the library suddenly opened up, and an ugly but cute robot descended from it. The camera on its head rotated a circle and scanned all the scenes in the room.
"Master, Semillian appeared in the manor and attacked Master Luo Er, and used the HX09 small black hole generating portable gun once." Alpha fell to the ground and turned the camera to Luo Er: "Master Luo Er, are you okay?"
The man in black's hair stood on end.
Although Semillian was holding an extremely dangerous weapon just now, he still felt that he still had the strength to fight. But now this ugly, clumsy and primitive robot made him dare not make any unusual movements.
——How can a mere robot be so terrifying?
Luo Er said: "I..."
Before he could utter a complete sentence, the space in front of him suddenly seemed to shatter, and a slender figure stepped out from the distorted light and color blocks.
The pupils of the man in black suddenly shrank. He finally understood why all the signs showed that Rong Yuan was not in the manor, but no matter which surveillance camera had any record of this person leaving. With such ability, where in the world could he be trapped?
Rong Yuan's hair was a little messy, and his clothes were not neatly arranged. It was obvious that he had rushed back in a hurry. But his expression was not panic, but cold. The moment he appeared, he looked at Luo Er first, looked him up and down, and then his expression relaxed a little, and asked: "Are you injured?"
Although his expression was still indifferent, without showing much concern or worry, nor did he give the young man, who had just experienced danger, a hug or comfort from an elder as the man in black had expected, this was enough for Lor.
All along, Luo Er's attitude towards Rong Yuan was respectful and a bit of order. Even if he followed him and left the planet where he grew up, it was actually just out of a sense of escape and indifference. But at this moment, Rong Yuan's light greeting shattered his long-standing defense and anxiety. He was like a child who saw his parents after falling down. Although he wanted to show a little strength in his heart, the huge grievance and sadness instantly broke through the armor disguised as maturity.
The boy opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, tears welled up in his eyes.
He quickly reached out to wipe away his tears, wanting to calmly and rationally tell Rong Yuan what had just happened and some of his own analysis and speculations, but the tears that he had been holding back ever since his beloved father got into trouble seemed to have finally found an outlet, and they kept falling like a landslide. The more he wiped away, the more tears came. He tried his best, but just could not control himself from crying shamefully.
Rong Yuan sighed softly.
Then, a hand fell on the head of the boy who was trembling with tears and touched him.
An uncontrollable low cry escaped from the boy's throat. It was such a quiet, forbearing, yet extremely sorrowful cry that made people feel distressed.
——seemed to have hesitated for a moment.
Then there was a gentle and warm hug, the man almost completely held the boy in his arms, as if he had built a fortress for him that was impervious to wind and rain.
Just a few seconds seemed to have injected him with infinite power.
Rong Yuan let go of Luo Er, put his hand on his shoulder, and said to Alpha beside him: "Send him back to the dormitory to rest. You personally watch over the two of them and don't leave for the time being."
"yes."
Alpha responded, moved to Lor's side, and said in a soft voice: "Master Lor, let's go."
"Okay." The young man replied sullenly. After the intense outburst, he finally controlled his emotions, wiped the tears from his face, and when he was about to leave, he paused again, turned his head to look at the man in black who had not moved since just now, and bowed and said, "Sir, although I don't know what your purpose is, thank you for saving me."
The man in black smiled, knowing that the boy was begging Rong Yuan in this obscure way, and said with a smile: "It's nothing, even without me, it seems that you will be fine."
After watching Lor leave, Rong Yuan turned his attention to the man in black.
The man in black smiled, took off his mask, and revealed a weathered but still charming mature man's face.
He had short hair the color of flames, sharp eyebrows and bright eyes. His face was angular and a bit fierce, but his eyes were as blue and gentle as the sea, which neutralized this feeling. He was wearing a black uniform, and his posture was as straight and resolute as a soldier who had been training for many years. His exposed face and hands were covered with deep and shallow scars, but this did not detract from his handsomeness at all, but made the man in front of him more mysterious, which made people want to explore.
"Hello, Mr. Rong." The red-haired man said, "My last name is Yun, Yun Yi, and I am the leader of the Tulip Country's resistance army."
