Quick Transmigration: Why did you provoke him? He's love-struck!

Chapter 425 The Predator Trapping Plan (24)

After Qin Shao left, Shen Rong changed her target to Yan Zhen—unlike when she attacked Qin Shao with a gun, this time she used verbal attacks.

"He abused you! Who does he think he is to dare hit you!"

"He didn't hit me..."

"I saw it all! With my own eyes!!" Shen Rong exclaimed in exasperation. "Are you really out of your mind? You were beaten up and you were still protecting him?"

"..."

"Break up with him right now!!!" Shen Rong said, "If you ever get a chance to leave N613, I'll introduce you to someone with a better physique and more handsome looks. You're just too narrow-minded because you've been stuck in this small place for too long, clinging to a piece of trash as if it were a treasure..."

Yan Zhen covered his ears and ran away.

The next day, Yan Zhen took Shen Rong out and brought back a bunch of materials, and began to set up defenses around the stronghold.

Wearing thick gloves, Shen Rong helped install conductive materials around the spaceship while asking, "Why the sudden need to deploy defenses?"

Yan Zhen was busy with his work and told him the truth: "Qin Shao has gotten into trouble. The group of people who surrounded him in the red-light district that day may come looking for him. We are outnumbered, so we need to prepare in advance."

Upon hearing that the defenses were being set up for that scoundrel, Shen Rong immediately quit.

After she left, Qin Shao took over her job and worked with Yan Zhen to set up defenses.

On the outpost spaceship, Haier and Shen Rong sat at the hatch. Haier held a green and tender vegetable leaf in his hand, tearing it off piece by piece and chewing it raw.

Haier was so happy to finally get to eat some fresh green vegetables that he squinted his eyes.

Shen Rong glared through gritted teeth at Yan Zhen and Qin Shao, who were chatting and laughing while working not far away.

"Refrigerator, is there any way to get rid of this guy surnamed Qin?"

"Why did you kick your brother-in-law out?" Haier asked, puzzled. "He was so nice to us, he even brought us canned vegetables."

Shen Rong: "..."

She stared at Haier for a while, then kicked him in the butt: "Eat, eat, eat! All you ever do is eat!"

After saying that, she turned and went back to the cabin.

Haier, who had been kicked, sat there feeling like a dog that had been the victim of innocent rage.

A few days passed in the blink of an eye.

That night, Yan Zhen was sleeping when her children's watch on her wrist vibrated, waking her up immediately, as she was already on her guard.

She checked her watch and saw that the alarms around the spaceship were sounding. According to the surveillance cameras, someone had sneaked into the vicinity of the base under the cover of darkness.

Yan Zhen did not make any rash moves. She observed the enemy situation for a while through the thermal imaging camera. There were at least a hundred people on the other side, and they were well-equipped.

They were undoubtedly there to see Qin Shao.

Yan Zhen immediately woke up Shen Rong and Haier, and then ran to the stern.

She raised her hand to knock on the door, but the tailgate door opened first, and Qin Shao was already dressed in his gear, ready for battle at any moment.

The insight of those with advanced mental power is indeed unmatched by ordinary people.

The four of them gathered together to exchange information, and then dispersed.

Haier lacked combat capabilities. Faced with so many enemies, all he could do was protect himself and avoid endangering his teammates. So he climbed through a small door at the bottom of the ship's cabin and hid in the safe room below.

Shen Rong and Qin Shao are the main fighting force.

Yan Zhen, whose physical strength was slightly inferior, was responsible for triggering the mechanisms she had set up.

The three of them hid in the spaceship, holding their breath. Just as the enemy had all gathered around, intending to take them down in one fell swoop, Yan Zhen pressed the power switch.

In an instant, the crackling sound of electricity and the screams of those being electrocuted echoed through the sky.

Half of the people were affected, suffering severe electric shocks that left them charred and unable to get up.

The other half reacted quickly, jumping out of the trap and starting to fire at the base's spaceship with their guns. One person even carried a cannon on his shoulder and fired shells in their direction.

Yan Zhen remained calm and activated the mechanisms one after another. The hidden weapons that had been set up over the past few days were launched in succession, and more than ten people were killed amidst cries of agony.

“There are still forty-three left.” Shen Rong kept a close eye on the images transmitted back by the thermal imaging device. “These people are quite powerful and well-equipped. We can’t stop them with just traps.”

“Then let’s execute Plan B.” Yan Zhen pulled Qin Shao up, opened the tail hatch to leave, and didn’t forget to confirm the plan with Shen Rong, “We’ll head east, you head west. After we draw away most of the firepower, you come back in an hour and pick up Haier in the aircraft. Any problems?”

Shen Rong hesitated: "Why can't I go with him to draw away the enemy's fire..."

“You’re better than me, you can protect Haier, but I might not be able to,” Yan Zhen said. “Stop talking nonsense. Remember to take your nutrient solution with you when you leave, and come back here to meet up no later than the evening of the day after tomorrow.”

If we don't come back, then it's assumed we won't. You take Haier to join Leo; I've already spoken to his base there.

Shen Rong: "...Be careful."

"Okay, you too."

After saying that, Yan Zhen and Qin Shao jumped off the spaceship and ran quickly eastward.

As soon as the group spotted Qin Shao, they immediately gave chase.

Three-quarters of the firepower surrounding the spaceship was instantly drawn away.

The two figures disappeared into the vast metal forest, playing hide-and-seek with the enemies that followed closely behind.

Qin Shao's mental power came into play again. He held Yan Zhen with one hand and appeared like a ghost behind the enemies searching for them from time to time. With a snap of his fingers, he could make the enemy explode into a bloody mess.

Yan Zhen, familiar with the terrain, was wearing night vision goggles and acting as a navigator. Watching Qin Shao's dashing movements, she would occasionally exclaim, "Wow, Boss Qin is so handsome!"

At first, Qin Shao didn't take it seriously, but as Yan Zhen praised him more and more, he couldn't help but adopt a more serious attitude, and his moves became more and more flashy.

After wandering around for most of the night, most of the thirty-odd people who had followed them were dealt with, leaving only about ten people relentlessly pursuing them.

This group was determined to kill Qin Shao, and even though they were seriously injured, they did not give up the pursuit. At dawn, Yan Zhen and Qin Shao led the group into Area A.

As soon as they stepped into Area A, the group sensed something was wrong.

The area was shrouded in a yellow mist and so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Despite being surrounded by steel wreckage, they felt a profound sense of emptiness, as if even a cough here would echo.

The further in you go, the thicker the fog becomes, until finally you can't see a person more than ten meters away.

But the group still had no intention of retreating, and continued to venture deeper into the forest while keeping a watchful eye on their surroundings.

At that moment, a muffled thud came from above.

The group, who were under extreme tension, immediately raised their guns and opened fire in the direction of the sound.

After an unknown number of bullets were fired, a huge echo was followed by a rustling sound in the forest, as if countless multi-legged animals were approaching.

Fear gripped the crowd, and they stood back to back in a circle, scanning their surroundings with their guns pointed outwards.

Until one of the team members discovered a centipede the size of a thumb crawling up his helmet.
