The sound of the dense entangling vines’ rapid growth covered everything. Bi Lanxing supported Lu Yan, knelt and slightly arched his back, closing his eyes, he clenched Lu Yan’s hand, while pressing his palm on the button of the detonator.
He seized the opportunity to detonate. The thickness of the vines may be able to withstand a wave of explosions and Bi Lanxing had already calculated the escape route in his heart. As long as he could withstand the explosion, he could still take Lu Yan to the deep water reservoir behind the preparation room.
Malicious and frivolous words suddenly passed by the ears of the two. “Killing him is just a matter of moving your fingers, so don’t fall down.”
Through the tiny gaps in the vines, Bi Lanxing saw a pair of slender hands, the knuckles made a clicking sound, and a sapphire fish-shaped wedding ring was worn on the ring finger.
Bai Chunian was wearing a black combat uniform, the gun belt wrapped tightly around the muscular thighs, he took off his gloves, and loosened the tight Dead Sea Heart Rock collar around his neck.
The dense vine net was chopped off by a sharp blade and Rimbaud dragged the two of them out from under the machete that Gargantuar swung high with a hydration steel dagger in his mouth.
Bi Lanxing was barely able to stand up and walk with him, so Rimbaud carried Lu Yan horizontally, found a safe place to lie down, and bent his fish tail for Lu Yan to rest on.
A strong brandy oppressive pheromone gradually filled the air, spreading around Bai Chunian, and Rimbaud released a wave of HImalayan musk rose soothing pheromone at the same time, like a barrier protecting Bi Lanxing and Lu Yan, so as to prevent them from having their glands damaged by the oppressive pheromones, because when Bai Chunian’s white lion glands’ oppression was fully released, there was a certain degree of species suppression and grade suppression for them.
Gargantuar slashed through the air, and the heavy blunt knife cut a deep gully on the ground, and the crack spread six or seven meters.
He also felt the oppressive pheromone of brandy, and turned his head dully towards Bai Chunian, staring at Bai Chunian with his lifeless dark eyes like an abyss.
Although Gargantuar’s thinking ability was not strong, he could clearly distinguish who was the biggest threat to him on the field, and immediately locked his target on Bai Chunian. Step by step he walked towards Bai Chunian, dragging the blunt knife on the ground, the screeching sound made one’s back molars ache.
Every time Gargantuar took a step, the sense of oppression in his body became stronger. His pheromone was Rafflesia flower, and the rotting corpse-like smell spread to the surroundings with a strong sense of oppression.
Bai Chunian didn’t pay attention to him immediately, but went to Rimbaud’s side first. Lu Yan was resting on Rimbaud’s shoulder, his bloodstained hand grasping Rimbaud’s wrist like a life-saving straw, the little rabbit was scorched all over. The injury to his calf seemed to have hurt a bone, his foot was hanging and not daring to touch the ground, its fragility was all displayed in front of them.
Rimbaud broke the rules and allowed the dirty little thing to suck his soothing pheromone a little longer.
Bai Chunian squatted down and checked his leg bones from the ankle. It seemed that it was just a soft tissue contusion, but when checking the injury on the leg, Lu Yan coughed a few more times and coughed up a few blood clots.
Bai Chunian frowned, rubbed his thumb against the bloody residue on Lu Yan’s cheek, reached into his combat uniform, and groped along his ribs section by section.
Lu Yan flinched and said vaguely that he was cold.
“Tsk.” The more he found out about the injury, the darker Bai Chunian’s face became.
After checking Lu Yan’s status, Bai Chunian pulled Bi Lanxing in front of him again, lightly squeezed his bandaged wrist, then briefly glanced at the slash on his chest. He lightly pressed on the surrounding bones with his fingers, and asked with lowered eyelashes. “Does it hurt here?”
Bi Lanxing inhaled softly. “A little bit.”

“Hmph.” Bai Chunian snorted coldly, patted his stomach with the back of his hand, gritted his teeth, and said, “You’ve grown up, my vice-captain, I will fix you later.”
“Tfr.”

“I made a move that day?”
Lu Yan was stunned, thinking back to that day when they were helping the International Prison and the pastry chef had deteriorated. All along, Bai Chunian was completely in command of the team and basically didn’t need to use any abilities. As for the members of the Alliance, they actually understood Bai Chunian the least.
Gargantuar’s footsteps finally approached a dangerous distance, his hands stretched out with blue veins to gather strength for swinging the blunt knife, and his footsteps changed from slow dragging to fast charging.
Bai Chunian turned around, hooked his fingertips on the hidden buckle of the Dead Sea Heart Rock collar around his neck, pulled it lightly, and the collar buckle fell off and fell to his feet.
An unprecedented domineering momentum rushed out of him, and Rimbaud increased the release of Himalayan musk rose soothing pheromone, so that Bi Lanxing and Lu Yan beside him would not be harmed.
With Rimbaud blocking the oppression with his pheromones, Bi Lanxing and Lu Yan could not personally feel the magnitude of the pressure from the oppressive pheromones on Bai Chunian.
After this swift and powerful pheromone appeared, Gargantuar’s charging pace stopped suddenly, holding the handle of the blunt knife with both hands, and staring fixedly at Bai Chunian with two pitch-black eyeballs.
With his hands in his pockets, Bai Chunian walked towards Gargantuar slowly.
He took a step forward, and Gargantuar took a step back.
Due to the habits of a lion pride, the leader of the lion pride is usually relaxed and lazy, neither hunting nor doing anything, but once an intruder invades the territory or attacks their cubs or lionesses in the pride, they will immediately be angered. For a lion, this kind of face-slapping behavior was intolerable.
Rimbaud has been paying attention to Bai Chunian’s emotions. Although Bai Chunian is as gentle as usual on the surface, he is actually in a state of being irritated.
Young and energetic alphas of ferocious beasts, especially lions, can go berserk easily when killing, and it is impossible not to firmly control them.
Rimbaud handed Lu Yan back to Lanxing, and the Dead Sea heart rock collar that fell to the ground melted into liquid black water and gradually transformed into a chair with complicated patterns under Rimbaud’s body. Rimbaud put his hands on the armrests to watch the battle, tapping with his fingertips.
The Dead Sea Heart Rock flowed to Bai Chunian’s side and rose from his feet, forming four thick chains, which were fastened to Bai Chunian’s wrists and ankles. Bai Chunian’s range of action was greatly limited by the Dead Sea Heart Rock, his limbs only able to move in a small range.
The Dead Sea heart rock flowed on the ground, drawing out a circle, enclosing Bai Chunian and Gargantuar inside. The black encirclement rose slowly, as the airtight Dead Sea heart rock formed into a hemispherical pitch-black cage, trapped two of them in darkness, completely isolated from the outside world.
Unable to see what was happening inside, Lu Yan became worried. “Rimbaud… What do you mean by tying him up… Aren’t you afraid that Chu Ge will get hurt?”
Rimbaud leaned back on the Dead Sea heart rock chair floating just above the floor, looked at the hemispherical barrier calmly and said indifferently, “If you loosen the chain, not even ten Gargantuars will be his opponent.”
Lu Yan was dumbfounded.
Bi Lanxing opened his mouth and asked softly, “White Lion A3, No. 9100 special operations experimental subject, code-named Divine Envoy, maturity grade nine, right?”
Lu Yan asked anxiously, “Why can’t you release him?”
The sounds of fighting, their smell and the blood on their bodies attracted too many zombies stuck in the factory. The night was filled with growls as the infected people poured in from every corner of the dark factory.
Rimbaud raised the tip of his tail slightly and slammed it heavily on the ground. A high-voltage current explosively spread from the ground like a spider web. In the blink of an eye, all the zombies around the conductive objects were burned into flying ash, the stench mixed with the burnt smell wafted through the air.
“Letting go is forever farewell, I’m reluctant to do it. Like a candle, it’s gone when it’s burnt out, and it can’t return.” Rimbaud lowered his eyes, and the water was flowing in his blue eyes. “Our life spans are too far apart. I’m going to take good care of him while he’s alive.”
“I, I want to as well.” Lu Yan put his arm around Bi Lanxing’s shoulders, barely even standing up, but he still wanted to say some bold words that didn’t match his distraught appearance.
Rimbaud raised his eyebrows slightly, making Lu Yan feel so uncomfortable that he lowered his head, and muttered softly, “What are you looking at, can’t I just say it.”
“Heh.” Rimbaud smiled.
The two froze for a moment, Rimbaud seldom smiled, most of the time he had a cold face, unless Bai Chunian was by his side, he didn’t show a gentle face towards anyone.
Rimbaud spread out his palm and there was a blue light jellyfish floating in the palm. The jellyfish swam in the air and floated to Lu Yan’s ankle. The small tentacles wrapped around Lu Yan’s foot, and there came tingling pain from a weak electric current and then the jellyfish was absorbed into his skin.
Lu Yan immediately felt that his injured leg was much more comfortable and he no longer had to dangle his toes to prevent them from touching the ground.
“Otherwise he will care about you first when he comes out.” Rimbaud casually pinched Lu Yan’s fluffy ears, “Little rabbit.”
Lu Yan was so ashamed that he lowered his head and didn’t dare to look at Rimbaud or Bi Lanxing. When he was pressed against and kissed earlier, it was still fine as he did not realize what really had happened yet. But slowly recalling it now, he did not know where to put his hands.
Bi Lanxing raised his hand to support him, but Lu Yan withdrew his hand again and again, hiding his hands behind his back, covering his face with rabbit ears.
Rimbaud rested his chin on one hand, watched the two children pushing and pulling awkwardly, and asked, “Do you need a marriage certificate? I’ll grab two for you.”
Lu Yan didn’t even want to blurt out a rebuttal. “We’re not old enough yet! They won’t issue certificates.”
Bi Lanxing’s expression suddenly became a little astonished. It turned out that the stupid rabbit had really thought about this matter by himself.
“It’s not difficult.” The transparent hydrated steel dagger in Rimbaud’s palm turned into a pistol, which was hung on his index finger, “With this, they can’t do anything.”
Lu Yan couldn’t speak, not knowing where and how to hide, wishing to find a crack in the ground to get in.
Bi Lanxing stood behind Lu Yan, rested his chin lightly on Lu Yan’s head, covered the rabbit ears hiding Lu Yan’s eyes with his hands, and smiled lightly, not letting him hear any more.
No sound could be heard from the space covered by the heart rock of the Dead Sea, the pitch-black hemispherical surface rippled faintly, like viscous waves able to devour a drowning man.
Time passed by, and the zombies that were weakly connected with Gargantuar’s spirit came in waves, but every time they approached, Rimbaud only needed to raise his fish tail and use high-voltage electricity to suppress them.
It was also a gland suppression, with each level of evolution came a leap in strength. It was also the first time for Lu Yan and Bi Lanxing to observe the combat state of an A3-grade experimental subject at such a close distance. It could only be said to be worthy of the name of the special warfare weapon.
The calm beneath the Dead Sea barrier lasted for ten minutes.
“He should be done venting his anger.” Rimbaud got up, and the Dead Sea Heart Rock chair under him turned into black liquid following his movements, flowing to the ground.
The black waves on the surface of the hemispherical barrier calmed down and a dark gap that didn’t show anything inside was opened in the middle. After Rimbaud entered, some rancid blood flowed out from the gap.
Lu Yan couldn’t help looking in, but was picked up by Bi Lanxing’s vines with his eyes covered with his hand.
After Rimbaud entered this dark enclosed space, the pale blue light on his body illuminated the narrow space, like a floating blue light.
Bai Chunian’s position has not changed, he was still bound by the chains of the Dead Sea Heart Rock, standing in the same position as when he came. It’s just that the combat uniform on his body was soaked with sweat and blood and his eyes were shining sapphire blue, the whites of his eyes disappearing. The ears and fangs of the white lion hadn’t been retracted yet, and a snow-white lion tail was raised high, shaking provocatively .
Scattered piles of scraps of flesh and broken bones were piled up under his feet.
“Xiao Bai.” Rimbaud called him, Bai Chunian froze for a moment, his tail slowly drooped, retracted into his body and disappeared.
Only now did Rimbaud approach him, take him into his arms, and stroke him gently.
Bai Chunian obediently squatted under Rimbaud’s care, sat on the ground and rested his head on Rimbaud’s neck. Under Rimbaud’s touch, the lion ears in his hair disappeared, his pupils shrank to normal size and he regained clarity.
“I know you’re still feeling bad because of Pearl, so it’s good to let it out.” Rimbaud wrapped himself around him, kissing the side of his neck to comfort him: “You’re so good, you’ll have everything in the future.”
Bai Chunian’s tense body finally softened, he hugged Rimbaud’s waist, buried his head in and took a deep breath.
“Don’t be like this, making me always seem very ignorant in front of you.” Bai Chunian sniffed in a muffled voice, “But I’m sad, why are you so indifferent, do you have a heart, or do you not have a heart.”
“My two hundred and seventy years old heart has long been hardened. Your heart is still tender, so it hurts easily.”
“Because Pearl came from you, I really care about it. I feel that I am very close to the home I want, but I can’t reach it no matter how hard I try.” Bai Chunian sat on the ground, his hands and feet were still handcuffed as he talked, looking down at the ground haggardly, “I burned the cultivation base, killed the researchers who operated on you, but there are still so many new ones, they can’t be killed, I can’t finish killing them, why are there so many people… I want to get rid of them all.”
It was the first time for Rimbaud to see such a disappointed and helpless look on him, which made people want to put all good things in front of him, pleading him not to feel sad anymore.
“You always wish to have what you can’t get.” Rimbaud put his hand lightly on the back of Bai Chu’s neck, “A few years ago, in the cultivation base, if you wanted to go out, I would send you out. You blame me, but you still miss me. Then you said, you like someone, you want to stay and don’t want to go back with me, so I stayed with you. Now I am here and you set your eyes on the next thing. Everything you want is important, but desire and greed are the bad roots of human beings, don’t be infected with it unknowingly. I’m guarding you here, isn’t this the family you’re talking about.”
Bai Chunian stared at him blankly.
“You need to cherish them.” Rimbaud lowered his eyelashes and the soft light from the scales reflected on his gentle profile, “Just like I cherish you.”
Bai Chunian unconsciously looked down to the left. What Rimbaud said passed through his mind and he was adjusting his thinking and silently evaluating what Rimbaud said in his mind.
Suddenly Rimbaud got closer, tilted his head to the middle of Bai Chunian’s neck, and kissed his skin. He didn’t use his teeth, but just sucked a red mark.
This gentle kiss excited Bai Chunian, instead. He wanted to throw himself into Rimbaud’s arms, but the chain tightened suddenly, his hands were dragged back and two red marks appeared on his wrists.
Rimbaud saw a flash of sadness in Bai Chunian’s eyes. From childhood to adulthood, Xiao Bai was always treated roughly by various people, but he still whispered obediently that he likes it, and he actually believed the “like” in the mouth so easily. Like to be disciplined, like to be restricted, probably could only be translated into hidden fear of being abandoned.
It was true that the driving objects obtained by other envoys were enhancements, but what he obtained was restraint and restriction. He was born in a cage and would never be free until death.
Rimbaud snapped his fingers lightly, the chain broke and fell off Bai Chunian’s body, and retracted back to his neck to become a collar.
Rimbaud straightened up, and under his control, the debris and cracked bones of Gargantuar were brutally absorbed by the Dead Sea heart rock, as if they never existed. He had long been used to cleaning up messes for the little alpha who occasionally became a little violent and cruel and even thought that this was what he should do. Just like washing the soiled underwear of a little lover, for him it was a thing satisfying his desire to conquer.
Bai Chunian sat on the ground, crossed his legs in a different position and set his hands loosely on his knees. His two canine teeth protruded from his slightly parted thin lips as he looked up at Rimbaud with bright eyes.
Rimbaud raised his hand to cover Bai Chunian’s finally lit up eyes, bent down and said softly, “Will you use this look to act as an authority figure in front of them later? Put it away, only show it to me.”
