Chapter 65: Full of Traps
Leng Rongrong waited for a moment, and Little Nanyu came back to find her.
“It’s done, Mom. I have asked my master for Lord Four’s next whereabouts. We can go and find him!”
Little Nanyu continued in high spirits, “There’s nothing fun at the banquet. Let’s go find Lord Four instead!”
“Alright.” Leng Rongrong was looking forward to it.
She was even interested in taking a peek at the Nether Abyss Empire’s ruler.
She was finally going to meet the ruler of the Nether Abyss Empire. Just thinking about it made her thrilled and excited!
“Disciple…”
Just as Leng Rongrong and Little Nanyu were about to go out, a sobbing voice suddenly came from behind them. Then, a bald middle-aged man appeared in front of them with tears on his face.
Leng Rongrong was speechless.
Wasn’t this Little Nanyu’s master?
Why was he crying?!
He didn’t look young. But why would he cry so miserably? Did he get bullied at the banquet?
Wasn’t he a world-class hacker?
Who in the Nether Abyss Empire would dare to bully him?
“Master…” Little Nanyu’s mouth twitched, and he held his forehead with his little hand. It’s over. Meng Jiangnu could make the Great Wall collapse with her bitter weeping. When his master cried, he was even more powerful than Meng Jiangnu. “Well, are you alright?”
Chen Huai’s head was so bright that it seemed to be glowing. His mouth was flat, and his face was trembling. “They said that the gift you specially prepared for me was randomly picked up at the banquet?”
His heart ached. Had he been fooled by his most beloved disciple?
Little Nanyu coughed and said seriously, “What the hell do they know? I specially prepared these desserts for you. I took them from there and even wrapped them in tissue paper. I even handed them to you. If I didn’t prepare them so carefully for you, I wouldn’t have brought them, right? They’re just envious, jealous, and hateful. Where else can you find such a genius, cute, and smart disciple like me?”
Little Nanyu lied to his master in front of him with a serious face.
Then, he sneaked up to whisper in Leng Rongrong’s ear. He told her that he probably couldn’t go with her to find Lord Four. If she wanted to see Lord Four, he still needed to comfort his master.
His master was very difficult to deal with. Other than Mo Nanyu, no one else could deal with him.
If he was really angry, the communication equipment on the island would probably be destroyed, and the entire island would probably fall into darkness and chaos.
His master was just so awesome and so willful!
Leng Rongrong looked at Little Nanyu with deep sympathy, then left first.
She didn’t understand the melodramatic nature of a middle-aged man!
Anyway, Little Nanyu had many opportunities to meet the ruler of the Nether Abyss Empire. It was rare for Leng Rongrong to have the opportunity to attend this banquet. This was the only chance she had to sneak a peek at the ruler.
Young Master Ming, whom the outside world did not dare to talk about easily, was Lord Four.
Little Nanyu had prepared everything for her. He drew a rough map on a piece of tissue and wrote down the time and place.
Leng Rongrong estimated Lord Four’s approximate location based on the time, then began to leave the banquet venue. She headed towards an extremely luxurious villa nearby.
At this hour, Lord Four should be taking an after-meal stroll in the garden.
Her destination wasn’t far, so Leng Rongrong arrived at the extremely luxurious villa very quickly. The large iron gate of the villa’s courtyard was covered with flower branches. The roses were blooming in layers, and the sight was very beautiful.
As the wind blew, the flowers fell all over the ground, as if it was raining flowers.
In contrast to the liveliness of the banquet venue, it was very quiet here, with no one in sight.
It was probably a region that belonged to the Nether Abyss Empire. Although it was open to the public, very few outsiders could come to the place. Therefore, there were no guards at the entrance of the villa.
The enormous metal door was closed, but it was not a problem for Leng Rongrong. Although it was an electronic lock, Leng Rongrong could unlock it with a few fiddles.
Leng Rongrong walked into the courtyard with poise.
This courtyard had a Chinese-style feel to it. There were pavilions, rockeries, flowers, and trees.
The yard was spacious. Leng Rongrong walked through a long corridor filled with water toward the huge villa. As she walked along the long corridor, she suddenly saw something floating up from the water.
A crocodile emerged from the water. It opened its mouth and stared at Leng Rongrong.
It seemed to be hungry…
Leng Rongrong took another look, and more alligators surfaced…
“I’m sorry, I didn’t bring any food.” Leng Rongrong spread out her hands. Her expression remained stable while facing the crocodiles all over the water, and then, she continued to walk forward quickly.
The crocodiles seemed to be a little embarrassed because they couldn’t even scare her. They then flicked their tails and sank back into the water.
The surface of the lake became calm.
After passing through the long corridor, Leng Rongrong encountered a grove. It was clearly a grove. From the outside, it looked easy to pass through, but after entering, she lost her way then and there.
“A formation? No wonder there were no guards. The entrance was heavily secured. It was probably not a place that ordinary people could enter. The crocodile pool, the maze… What other mechanisms could be here?” Leng Rongrong walked around the grove.
After walking a round, she still returned to where she entered originally. She could not pass through the grove and even had no way to retreat. She was completely trapped.
Leng Rongrong did not seem to care. She stood on the spot for a while. Her fair and beautiful fingers moved a few times. She furrowed her brows as if she was calculating something, and then, her eyes lit up.
“Simple!”
Accordingly, she took three steps to the left, three steps to the right, a few steps forward, and a few steps back.
She seemed to be pacing back and forth in a mess, but in less than two minutes, she had already left the grove. She looked back, and a trace of contempt flashed in her eyes.
This kind of array was not enough to trap her.
After leaving the grove, a fake mountain appeared in front of her. There were some flowers and plants on the side. The courtyard was quite lovely. Flowers of different seasons were all blooming right then, and there was also a faint fragrance.
It smelled very good, but it was poisonous…
Leng Rongrong’s expression didn’t change as she continued to move forward. However, as she walked, she held her breath, not allowing herself to smell the fragrance of the flowers.
Following that, she encountered a few more trivial traps. Leng Rongrong easily resolved them.
Soon, she was already standing in front of the huge villa.
Didn’t they say that Lord Four should be taking a stroll at this time?
Why didn’t she see the person in charge who was taking a walk? Did she enter the wrong passage? How could she not encounter him here?
If he wasn’t taking a stroll, then he should be in the house.
Just as Leng Rongrong was about to walk forward, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a man standing by the large swimming pool not far away on her left from the corner of her eye. His back looked extremely tall and straight, and he even looked a little familiar.
Why did he look so familiar?
Leng Rongrong walked towards the other end of the pool.
At this moment, a gunshot could be heard from behind him. Then, a silver bullet flew toward him.
