Chapter 415: A Hardcore Jingliu Stan for Seven Hundred Years? Three Generals Are Terrifyingly Calm!
…
"Next version, we're using Hoolay as a hotpot ingredient!"
"Jiaoqiu: Just wait till I get my banner, I'll bring the team back to beat you up!"
"Is Mok Tok trying to usurp the throne? Hoolay seems a bit slow."
"I just realized Hoolay is wearing a muzzle, that's so kinky!"
"??? There's something wrong with you!"
"Dan Heng, why aren't you turning into Imbibitor Lunae to throw hands?"
…
While the bullet chat was still joking around, Jiaoqiu's next line instantly cleared out half of the screen!
The moment the name Jingliu was uttered, both the story and the bullet chat fell dead silent!
"We're doomed, we're doomed, we're doomed, WE'RE DOOMED!!!"
Little Gui shook her head frantically.
She had read the [ Precautions for Visiting Hoolay ] very carefully earlier! It explicitly stated:
[ Avoid mentioning Jingliu in conversation with this prisoner! ]
And now, under these circumstances, Jiaoqiu had actively brought up that woman! He was literally taunting him to his face!
Could it be… in the next second… Jiaoqiu would be ripped to shreds by an enraged Hoolay?
Little Gui almost couldn't bear to watch!
However, Hoolay didn't fly into a rage or go hysterical as expected. Instead, he let out a suppressed, low growl!
Seeing things turning sour, Mok Tok immediately spoke up: "Lord! This slave is speaking nonsense, I have never heard such news! Please allow me to kill him immediately!"
"Silence, Mok Tok!" Hoolay commanded. "As for you, slave… from this moment on, you must stay by my side. Only when I allow you to speak, may you speak; only when I allow you to step, may you step. Otherwise, I will flay you inch by inch, from head to toe. Do you understand?"
After a brief daze, Little Gui realized something.
She asked suspiciously, "Hoolay is… somewhat terrified, isn't he?"
"The moment he hears Jingliu is back, he doesn't even dare to talk big?"
The players watching also began to catch on!
…
"Keyword triggered: Ding!"
"Hoolay instantly got PTSD."
"A Jingliu simp of seven hundred years."
"He's turning red."
"What do you mean red? He's clearly broken."
"Hoolay: Actually, prison is quite comfortable."
"Hoolay: Is it too late to negotiate peace?"
"Don't be scared, Jingliu is in Yuque, there are only three Generals outside."
"He was captured alive by Jingliu hundreds of years ago. Not to mention Hoolay has been tortured and starved for centuries, while Jingliu is probably even stronger than back then. He has to be a coward!"
"She was strong before, and now she's basically corrupted and three times stronger, how is he supposed to fight!?"
"Hoolay: Revenge my ass, it's over!"
…
"Mok Tok, we must tarry here for a moment. But fear not. From the moment we step out of this prison, it is the Xianzhou people who should fear. For I shall make them understand the meaning of true disaster."
"Now, cubs of the Borisin, follow me!"
With Hoolay's command, all the Borisin began to move!
At the same time, the main cast finally caught up!
Caelus took the lead, sprinting fiercely with his fists swung high, looking as if he wanted to beat Hoolay to death with a single punch!
Dan Heng followed closely behind with Cloud-Piercer in hand.
"It's the wardens, stop them! For Lord Hoolay, we shall gladly die!"
Directly ahead was the closing gate of the Shackling Prison. Hoolay had already escaped! Standing at the exit, his massive frame stared back.
However, they were a step too late after all!
The Shackling Prison's gate was already closing. At the final moment, Dan Heng reluctantly threw Cloud-Piercer like a javelin, but it couldn't stop the gate from shutting, getting squeezed into the gap.
…
"Cloud-Piercer: I'm free again, damn it!!"
"Hoolay, you coward! If you have the guts, fight our High Elder! Come on!"
"Just a quick note, Dan Heng was sitting in the cell right next to Hoolay, they're cellmates."
"This shows the necessity of anti-pinch sensors."
"Holy crap, did that just crush the tip of Cloud-Piercer?"
"Forged by Yingxing, kid!"
"Dan Heng should've just transformed into the High Elder here, he could've caught up by using his technique."
"Transforming requires BGM and a change of clothes, it takes a long time."
"Is there a speaker? I want to play 'Tearing the Heart' for Dan Heng."
"Sigh, we just can't escape the fate of being imprisoned…"
…
Hoolay's escape was a done deal.
The screen faded and transitioned to the Seat of Divine Foresight.
"Report! Communication with the Shackling Prison has been cut off. We received a transmission from a cycrane…"
"A riot has broken out in the prison, and the high-value prisoner… Hoolay's whereabouts are unknown!"
Hearing this news, the three Generals present did not seem overly surprised.
Jing Yuan asked immediately, "What of the Yaoqing envoy and the Nameless?"
"No news yet! We are restoring connection with the Shackling Prison as quickly as possible!"
"Dismissed."
Feixiao spoke up: "General Jing Yuan, General Huaiyan, as we expected… the rising of the Ambrosial Arbor was not the end of the matter, but the beginning."
"The hand stretched out from the Destruction's Antimatter Legion has already sown the seeds of ruin. From this moment into the unseen future, the Xianzhou Alliance will face even more terrible challenges—a dual threat from Destruction and the Abominations of Abundance."
"If this is what they want, I am ready at any time!"
"In my capacity as the Marshal's special envoy, I shall deploy the Luofu Cloud Knights to hunt down Hoolay."
Jing Yuan smiled faintly.
"The things beneath the pond have finally lost their patience. And what I must do, as I said before, is to clear the turbid water."
The plot originally had a sense of urgency, but the moment the three Generals appeared, their calm demeanor and confident words completely dispersed that tension!
Everything was rock solid!
Hoolay's escape was like a projection on the chess board in the Seat of Divine Foresight, entirely within the Generals' calculations!
…
"The three Generals: Let me see what's going on here."
"Whoa! You three are so calm?"
"Not surprised at all, feels like everything is under control?"
"I think Jing Yuan is setting up his board as usual. While making a move, he has already thought several steps ahead."
"'As we expected'"
"It's normal. When three shrewd minds gather, nothing they come up with is surprising."
"Is this finally the chance to eliminate Hoolay?"
"Wild guess, Jing Yuan might be planning to purge the Luofu Vidyadhara Preceptors!"
"Just short of Propagation, and the Xianzhou will have gathered the three major disasters of the universe."
"Feixiao: I've become the trump card."
…
"Interesting…"
Glancing at the bullet chat, Feixiao let out a smile, wiping her nose with the back of her hand. Her fox ears twitched slightly.
This was a sign that her interest had been piqued!
"I can't wait to see what happens next."
However, just as she wanted to keep watching, a line of text appeared on the screen.
[ After a brief but fatal loss of connection, the sealed Shackling Prison is back under control. Although the Astral Express Nameless are unharmed, one of the Yaoqing envoys has been abducted.
Meanwhile… Hoolay, the Borisin Warhead who has been suppressed at the bottom of the Shackling Prison for ages, has vanished.
The hunter and the prey will engage in a chase on the Xianzhou Luofu.
To be continued in the next update… ]
???
The four people on screen were instantly stunned.
Feixiao felt like she had a lump in her throat!
"Is this… the legendary cliffhanger?"
Feixiao had heard before that cliffhangers could drive people crazy… but she had never taken it seriously. She always thought it was an exaggeration!
It was just waiting, wasn't it?
People had to have some patience.
But now that it was her turn, she realized… she couldn't wait even a single second!
She wished she could jump into the game herself to continue the story!
Fortunately, this time, Feathered Spirit did not make the players wait!
