Chapter 41 War is Coming
The girl, wrapped in fragrance, rushed into his arms.
Ji Chen coughed, took two steps back, and said jokingly: "Ling Ke, you are too fat, you should lose weight."
"It's better to be fatter, so you can resist the cold!"
Lingke put her little nose on Ji Chen's shoulder and took a deep breath.
Just like a cat sniffing nip, the little face was full of satisfaction.
"Okay, come on down, I have something to do with your sister."
Ji Chen was a little amused and patted the girl who was hanging on him.
When Lingke was a child, she often followed Ji Chen and Xiluwa like a follower.
In her previous life, she was a person who kept others away, but in her later life, she became a rebellious ghost. This was also the result of the two of them working together to "train" her.
It caused a lot of headaches for the old man of the Langdao family.
He even put up a sign in front of his house saying: Ji Chen and dogs are not allowed to enter.
But the sign disappeared that night.
It has nothing to do with Ji Chen.
Xiao Lingke stayed up till two in the morning with tears in her eyes, then secretly pulled it out and threw it into her grandfather's toilet.
"okay!"
Ling Ke got off Ji Chen obediently, turned around and shouted: "Sister, Ji Chen wants to see you..."
He was halfway through his words when he froze.
In sight.
At some point, Shiluwa had come to the back of the house and was about to slip out through the back door.
That tall and slender lady's figure, but her tiptoeing movements looked very incongruous.
"Sister, what are you doing..."
Ling Ke was shocked. Is this still her sister who is carefree and easy-going and never takes anything to heart?
"Ling Ke, can you prepare a cup of hot coffee for me?"
Ji Chen said with a smile.
"no problem."
Ling Ke left the room without a second thought.
The hot coffee machine is outside in the iron house not far away.
The Silver Mane Iron Guard on duty resisted sleepiness.
Listen to the footsteps outside moving away.
Ji Chen came to Xiluwa, who seemed to have returned to normal, and said seriously: "Cocolia told me everything!"
"What? That old woman! I knew it!"
Xiluwa broke through the defense at the speed of light, gritting her teeth with a hiss.
It was as if they were going to storm Fort Klippe.
"In fact, I think this matter is not without room for negotiation."
There was a flash of surprise in Ji Chen's eyes, and he continued to fool around while stroking his chin.
I didn't expect that a simple trick could actually produce something.
What are Cocolia and Shiluwa doing in private? They seem to be having a lot of fun.
"Wha...what?"
Xiluwa was a little confused and stared at Ji Chen blankly.
"Everything is negotiable. Just tell me your request first. As long as it's not too excessive, I can do the work in Cocolia."
A barely perceptible blush appeared on Shiluwa's queenly face.
With his eyes dodging, he whispered, "Actually, I don't have anything to ask for..."
"The coffee is here!"
The door was knocked open from the outside.
Ling Ke was holding three cups of steaming coffee and said hurriedly, "Quick, Brother Ji Chen, help me get some coffee. It's so hot!"
Ji Chen walked over a few steps.
He took the coffee cup from her.
Ling Ke's appearance immediately broke the atmosphere.
Ji Chen felt helpless but was too lazy to explore further.
While sipping coffee, he chatted, "Is there anything you need here recently?"
"Have!"
Lingke answered first.
Facing Ji Chen's inquiring gaze, she proudly puffed out her chest and said, "You need an outstanding warrior like me!"
Ji Chen looked at Xiluwa in confusion.
Xiluwa stroked her smooth forehead, seeming to have a headache: "Ling Ke knew that the war would start soon, and she insisted on joining the Silver Mane Guards to fight the monsters outside."
Ling Ke said as a matter of course: "Our Langdao family has been in the army for generations. You and brother Jeppard have both joined the Iron Guard and made great contributions. Of course, I can do it too!"
"You are still young..."
"I'm an adult now. If I were in a normal family, I'd probably already have a baby!"
"you!"
Shiluwa was choked.
She glared with her beautiful eyes, and if soft tactics didn't work, she was going to use hard tactics.
Ji Chen on the side waved his hand.
Looking at Ling Ke calmly, he said, "Did you join the Silver Mane Guard because of the novelty, or do you want to kill the world-shattering monsters yourself and contribute to Beloberg?"
Ling Ke thought about it seriously and shook her head: "I don't know, probably all of them."
Every child of the Landau family is invisibly branded with the mark of military service.
Otherwise, Shilua and Jeppard would not have joined the Silver Mane Guards, both civil and military.
When Shiluwa left the Iron Guard, the old man of the Langdao family was so angry that he didn't sleep for three days and almost drew a line between himself and his daughter.
"Well, I'll take you out of the city, kill a few monsters myself, and then go back to continue your research."
"When the cold wave subsides, you can play a greater role as an explorer than in the military."
Ling Ke blinked her bright eyes and asked expectantly, "Can I kill the monster myself?"
"of course."
"Great! Shall we set off now?"
aside.
Looking at Lingke's excited expression.
Shiluwa opened her mouth but ultimately said nothing.
With Ji Chen here,.
There shouldn't be any problems.
Finish your hot coffee.
The three of them walked out of the room.
Coming to the heavily guarded street.
It seemed that Shiluwa had not been out for a long time. She was irritated by the sunlight and could not help but squint her eyes.
When they got outside, Ling Ke calmed down a lot, but she couldn't hide the excitement in her eyes.
She didn't know how to kill the powerful monster.
But Brother Ji Chen said that there must be a way and he would never let her down.
......
Go some distance.
A few hundred meters ahead is the giant city gate that separates the human world from the monsters of the Rift Valley.
From time to time, we saw retreating teams with tired looks on their faces.
Some were still wrapped in simple bandages, which would be carefully treated again when we got back to the rear.
A solemn and heavy atmosphere enveloped the area, making breathing seem a little oppressive.
Xiluwa was already used to this. She gently held Lingke's hand and could feel the sweat on her palm.
Was about to say something.
Suddenly, Ji Chen stopped and his expression gradually became solemn.
"what happened?"
Just asked the exit.
There was suddenly a commotion at the distant city gate, followed by the rapid and dull sound of artillery fire.
And the creepy, almost endless ferocious roar.
"Is it finally here?"
Ji Chen looked towards Yongdong Ridge with a hint of sneer on his face.
"Brother Ji Chen, what happened?"
Ling Ke looked a little nervous.
The continuous artillery fire from the direction of the city gate caused the ground to shake, and rubble fell from the walls on both sides.
This is definitely not a good sign.
"It's nothing, don't worry."
Ji Chen reached out and touched her head.
The warmth from the palm of her hand made Lingke feel an unprecedented sense of security, and her heart gradually calmed down.
"Take Lingke back first. I know what you want to say, but are you comfortable with Lingke going home alone?"
Ji Chen's words dispelled Xiluwa's idea of going to the city gate to defend against the enemy.
"Got it, you have to be careful too!"
......
A few minutes later.
The loud and rapid war cry pierced through the clouds, coming from the direction of the city gate, and echoed throughout the sky above Beloberg!
Shiluwa paused.
Then he gritted his teeth and quickly crossed the streets with Lingke, his pace obviously quickening.
