Anyone with a bit of sense knows one thing:
Don't ss with a mad woman.
A woman in a state of madness, in extre emotional and ntal states, is capable of doing anything!
Such a woman will do things that exceed your judgnt, surpass your logical frawork, sothing excessive, absurd, and unbelievable.
So, what if this mad woman is the "Star Sky Empress"?
Simple, multiply that by a hundred.
·
At this mont, Enke felt an absurd urge to slap himself, to see if he was dreaming!
All along, the two ard forces that first showed hostility towards him, didn't even have ti to fight back.
They were... crushed!
Crushed!!
·
Then, waving the white flag and joining his force, ca the first, then the second, the third...
If there was a map now...
In Enke's eyes, it would be clear to see: along the route of his march, all the places he passed through, the original forces' colors could all be changed to his own!
[I have too few soldiers!!]
This was Enke's first reaction!
If at this mont, he had a few thousand more troops in hand.
Every place passed through, whether crushed or surrendered by waving the white flag.
If he just left so troops along the way...
He could truly claim those forces!!
Yet, Enke didn't have such a big appetite, he couldn't swallow them all.
Nor could he digest them.
Relying on that powerful Empress, he rampaged all the way through.
But afterward, without this powerful, god-like woman...
Suddenly, Enke's eyes lit up!
He looked at the Special Ability Users in the team.
·
After a night's march, by dawn, the convoy had reached a delicate position.
Ahead, in the far distance, indeed was the coordinate of their marching destination.
However...
In front, lay a very delicate spot for both Enke and this small African country.
The capital city of this small African country...
·
They could bypass it, actually.
But the Empress's order was to accelerate! No delay was allowed! To reach the destination as quickly as possible!
So then...
Enke didn't lie.
He dared not make any use, hint, or even borrow the knife to kill with Lu Xixi.
He knew very well, in front of this mad woman, playing those little tricks might yield so benefits.
But if discovered by her, he would end up as a corpse.
So Enke simply presented his most honest and sincere posture.
"Ahead is the capital city, the strongest force. If we want to avoid conflict, we can bypass it, though doing so would take more than two additional hours."
Lu Xixi listened to Enke without showing any reaction.
She flew away directly.
Two minutes later...
Almost everyone in the convoy on the road heard the massive explosion.
And saw a fire in a certain direction of the capital city.
Then, Lu Xixi returned.
Returned to the convoy, sitting in the seat next to Enke.
"The convoy continues forward, send a team into the city to collect fuel, then catch up with the group."
Lu Xixi pointed out several Special Ability Users to lead the squad into the city to collect fuel.
Enke swallowed, "Did you, you just..."
"The so-called strongest force you ntioned, no longer exists."
"...What do you an?"
"The President's Mansion no longer exists."
Lu Xixi said nothing more and flew away directly.
·
It was only later that Enke realized, what this woman ant by "The President's Mansion no longer exists," was literally that.
Physically non-existent.
As the highest symbol of power in this war-torn African country's capital.
This building, after years of war, was continuously rebuilt and expanded by generations of warlords...
But this ti, it no longer existed.
Physically.
The President's Mansion was razed to the ground, not a single building remained.
And consequently, the strongest warlord organization occupying the capital in this war-torn country.
The more than ten warlords and their grass-root generals inside it.
As the President's Mansion was razed, these people also "no longer existed."
·
Thirty-six hours later.
The convoy of over a thousand people arrived at the earthquake-stricken ruins site.
The rcenary organization's professional military personnel laid out the military maps, dividing the set search plan into zones, having used the journey ti to prepare all of these.
Everyone launched into the search without any rest right there.
anwhile, three transport helicopters were circling in the sky, responsible for searching larger areas.
The helicopters were snatched from Octopus Monster Company by Lu Xixi.
Octopus Monster Company was already in chaos, and in this African small country action, supplies and the main depot were visited by Lu Xixi.
She wasn't interested in those supplies, but she was very envious of several helicopters parked by the warehouse.
Unceremoniously commandeered them.
As for the consequences...
An Octopus Monster Company without the Octopus Monster?
That's just dough! Lu Xixi couldn't care less about any so-called anger and retaliation.
Moreover, since Octopus Monster had plotted against her and Chen Nuo, her seizing of Octopus Monster Company's supplies was considered light enough!
·
By the seventy-second hour, the forces gathered in the area had grown larger.
The forces that joined by waving the white flag had also brought plenty of live power.
The search team, the manpower count had exceeded eight thousand people.
The search range had expanded more than threefold from what Lu Xixi initially planned.
Over one hundred and fifty cars were mobilized.
And six helicopters!
·
However, what's driving Lu Xixi increasingly mad was the complete lack of findings in seventy-two hours.
·
But a mad woman doesn't reason.
She directly called Enke, the rcenary Army commander, and the heads of several surrendering forces to her side.
"Go find all the excavators, digging equipnt! Get more engineering equipnt, more engineering personnel! Then, dig underground in the central area of our coordinates!!"
Everyone was dumbfounded upon hearing the order.
The rcenary Army commander swallowed, "Dig... dig how deep?"
"Keep digging. Until you find the location." Lu Xixi shook her head, her tone seemingly calm, but her eyes were flashing with the explosive fire of madness, "About eight hundred ters directly underground, there's an underground space, dig through it! Find it!"
Everyone fell silent.
The only person with eyes gleaming with excitent was Enke.
This sounded like a grand project.
But the longer the delay, it seed more beneficial to him.
As long as this project doesn't end, this woman will continue to act as his protector!
In carrying out this task, all the manpower and resources he needed, all opposing existences, would be completely resolved by this woman with her overwhelming stance!!
And the longer it takes, the more ti and opportunity he has to thoroughly swallow and digest all the territories and benefits that ca with it!
·
"Enough, Star Sky Empress."
The silence was broken by Colo.
Colo sighed, he walked up seriously, looking at Lu Xixi, "You know very well that conducting another massive excavation project has no real significance."
Lu Xixi didn't speak.
Colo softened his tone with a hint of persuasion, "When Octopus Monster previously excavated here, it took several months to make that tunnel.
Moreover, he had the capacity to mobilize almost unlimited resources worldwide, acquiring the best technicians, best equipnt, tunnel boring machines, and the like..."
Lu Xixi replied coldly, "I can too."
"And what about ti?"
Corot shook his head, "Even if you could, but what about ti? The Octopus Monster also needs several months to do this.
No matter how well you do it, it won't be faster than this ti.
Do you think, if they're underground, spending a few months digging down... what's the point?
Not to ntion they likely aren't even underground!"
Lu Xixi squinted, "So, besides this, do you have any other better ideas? What way, where to search?"
Corot was silent.
He couldn't speak.
If they were underground, they would have co out by now! Space teleportation, wouldn't Gray Cat know? Or wouldn't Chen Nuo know?
If they were seriously injured or unconscious, they should have woken up by now.
If they're really still underground, trapped there...
It would take you months to dig down, by then, their bodies would be dried up.
What's the point?
Corot didn't say any of this.
He knew very well that telling these words to a mad woman wouldn't help.
Besides…
"Everyone out."
Suddenly Lu Xixi stood up and pointed at the entrance of this temporary command tent.
Enke and the others hesitated for a mont, then quickly retreated.
When it was just Lu Xixi and Corot left in the tent, Lu Xixi turned to look at Corot.
A smile of calm mixed with madness appeared on her face.
"Corot, do you think I'm crazy?"
Corot: "..."
"I am indeed crazy, my heart is filled with anger, madness, and fear."
Lu Xixi's tone was calm, but the calr it was, the scarier it seed.
"But strangely, the more fearful I beco, the more my mind seems to work better, and the more I can think of things I usually can't."
Lu Xixi continued coldly in this calm tone towards Corot: "Do you know why I'm so persistent in this search?
Actually, since yesterday, you've already hinted to at least three tis that this futile search should be stopped.
And today, when I proposed the underground excavation plan, you opposed it again.
Hmm, you're performing well, performing as if I'm a madman.
And you're playing the role of a calm, rational companion.
You're persuading , persuading , the madman, to accept the facts and not do useless things, to accept all this...
It seems you're putting on the image of a [good person]."
Corot was stunned.
Lu Xixi burst into laughter, a laughter tinged with madness.
"I am often deceived. The person who often deceives is my husband.
Because he often deceives , I often beat him up.
However, I have also gained a lot of experience being deceived.
And since I often beat him, he confessed many deceitful techniques to .
Among them is a key principle he taught .
He once told : [If a person's persona is fake, then what he says is mostly untrustworthy!] He is mostly lying to you, hoping to lead you further away from your target. And that might just be what the liar wants."
Corot's face changed, he frowned: "What do you an?"
Lu Xixi snorted:
"Still pretending to be innocent? My aning is simple.
Your persona as a [rational, calm companion], this [good person] image is fake.
So, the more you tell not to do sothing, the more it is actually..."
Lu Xixi stopped speaking abruptly, facing Corot, stretched out her hand, and flicked her finger!
A gust of sharp wind shot out, directly towards Corot's forehead!
This gust was as sharp as a knife, and if nothing unexpected happened, this force would be enough to directly split open the skull of ordinary human Corot!!
·
Corot finally stepped back, he raised his hand and waved, lightly deflecting the wind shot at his face.
Lu Xixi snorted, "What, not going to continue pretending? [Forr Controller Mr. Corot]!
Since escaping from the tunnel, staying by my side, you've been playing the role of an ordinary person without any Special Ability.
Repeatedly making yourself look miserable...
Unfortunately, your acting skills fall too far short of my husband's."
After a mont of silence, Corot's face showed a strange expression.
He thought for a mont, "You knew I wasn't an ordinary person long ago?
How long have you known?"
"Since the tunnel earthquake."
Lu Xixi shook her head, lightly sneering, "After the earthquake started, I deliberately didn't save you. You, an ordinary person, relied on your strength to run out from the collapsed tunnel...
Even though you made an effort to disguise yourself, you even deliberately injured yourself.
But… wasn't it a bit exaggerated.
An ordinary person running out from a collapsed tunnel, such a long distance, so many falling stones, and yet none of them crushed you to death.
Were you just super lucky? Or have a particularly big life?"
Lu Xixi coldly said, "I already had so suspicions at that ti, but I wanted to test it more.
Then..."
Corot finally understood, bitterly laughing, "So, you acted as if you had gone mad later, bombarding the collapsed hillside to make flying rocks...
Was that all an act?"
"It was an act."
Lu Xixi coldly said, "I deliberately went mad, bombarding the collapsed hillside, causing explosions, flying rocks everywhere.
Then, you, an ordinary person, remained unhard under the flying rocks?
Ha!
You didn't know, while you were hiding behind that makeshift hut, there were a few stones I secretly guided with my power towards you!
Even so, you could still climb out unhard?
Mr. Corot, if that's the case, you are simply a miracle.
Unfortunately, I am not soone who believes in continuous miracles happening to one person!"
Corot couldn't help but sigh, "You're quite the convincing actor yourself."
Lu Xixi's eyes flickered with electricity, "Thanks for the complint.
My husband often deceives , he's a good actor. I gradually learned so things.
So, he actually doesn't know, sotis I'm not bad at acting myself."
Corot stepped back once more because he already saw the electricity appearing in Lu Xixi's hand.
"So you've already seen through , why still..."
"Because I found out, you're a bad person.
And you're a bad person who, for so reason I don't know, wants to lurk around . Then you must have your motives.
So, my idea is very simple, simple and brutal.
You're a bad person.
You're lying to !
The things you advised to do, like when you suggested splitting up to search initially.
Then later, suggesting I find more people to expand the search scale.
Since these advices ca from your mouth…
Then they're surely useless!
The things you want to do, surely won't find them!
So, you've been acting for .
I've also been testing you!
The advices you suggested are surely useless!
But, once sothing appears that you oppose doing...
That is... surely right!
You've been playing the role of a [Good Companion], and yet you directly suggested I not carry out the underground excavation.
Then I understand, I'm on the right track!
So, they are really still underground, right!"
·
Corot took a deep breath, seriously looking at Lu Xixi, "It was my mistake, I underestimated you, Star Sky Empress.
I always thought you were just soone relying on great power, but actually not much brain."
"What way did you use to restore your power? To what extent has your power been restored now? Are you back to being a Controller?"
Lu Xixi coldly asked, spiritual force tentacles increasingly filled the air around Corot.
Corot pondered for a mont, slowly saying, "I actually don't want to have a direct conflict with you, so I can tell you..."
"Sorry, the words you say now, I don't believe."
Lu Xixi coldly said, "For soone who has lied to , continuing to say anything to , in a normal state, I wouldn't believe it anymore.
I'm more inclined to beat you down, break every bone in your body, let you taste pain.
I feel, in such a situation, the words you say might be sowhat believable."
As she spoke, Lu Xixi's hair danced in blue electrical light.
"I really am a bit mad, especially since my husband disappeared, the father of my child, I can't find him!
You don't understand to what extent a woman can go mad in such a situation!
So, when I'm beating you later, you can resist as much as possible, let vent the anger in my heart a bit.
Mr. Corot!"
