Seeing Du Yue turn around and leave, Mu Chen still sat firmly on the chair, not the slightest bit surprised. Although Du Yue could not see Mu Chen’s expression and every move, she did not relax at all and remained vigilant. Just as Du Yue was about to reach the entrance, she suddenly heard a click. Du Yue knew that something was wrong and wanted to dodge immediately. However, the ground within five meters of her cracked open and turned into two doors that opened downward. Suddenly, a thought flashed through Du Yue’s mind. She absolutely could not fall down!
Although she did not know what was below, she did not need to guess to know that it was definitely a backup plan left behind by Mu Chen. This was not good. Du Yue did not have time to think too much. With a thought, she took out a wolf claw from the space and shot it toward Mu Chen. Du Yue surely would not expect Mu Chen to save her, and he also had more things on his side, so it would be easier for the wolf claw to seize the opportunity. In a flash, Du Yue was hanging in the air with the rope in her hand. She subconsciously looked down at her feet. As expected, densely packed steel thorns could be seen below her feet.
If she had accidentally fallen down just now, she would definitely have died! If she lost her life this time, she did not know if she would have the chance to reincarnate again. This thought flashed through Du Yue’s mind, but she threw it to the back of her mind in the next second.
Although she could hang in the air with the help of the wolf claw, it was still very dangerous. She had to go up immediately. Fortunately, in the past few years after the apocalypse, no matter what the living conditions were, she would persist in training. Therefore, even though she only had one rope in her hand, her climbing speed was still very fast. A minute later, Du Yue successfully climbed to the surface. She turned around and saw that there was no way out from where she was. It was impossible for her to walk out.
“You’re quite agile.” Mu Chen’s faint voice rang out, and Du Yue turned to look at him. As soon as she met Mu Chen’s blood-red eyes, she heard him speak again, “But I’m a little curious. Where did you get that wolf claw you used just now? It’s such a big thing. I’m afraid it’s not realistic to hide it on your body.”
As Mu Chen spoke, a strange light flashed across his blood-colored eyes. “1 was wondering what ability you had to make capable people like He Xing and Xia Ju stay by your side willingly and listen to you. So, it turns out that I’ve underestimated you, an earthling. You actually have an interspace! Things are getting more and more interesting. If 1 can strip away your space and use it for myself, then I believe that He Xing and Xia Ju wouldn’t mind changing teammates. After all, we come from the same place, and we might be more in sync than you!”
The more Mu Chen spoke, the more excited he became. Even his pair of enchanting red eyes began to glow. Du Yue stood at the side and listened quietly. She felt that he was brainless. He was a brainless man who lived in fantasies. By saying that he wanted to take away her interspace in front of her, he really did not put her in his eyes at all! When Du Yue first found out that there was someone from the interstellar in the fourth base, she did not want to do anything about it.
After all, with He Xing and Xia Ju as examples, Du Yue knew that not every interstellar person was bad. Now, it seemed that there were still more bad people than good. For example, the one in front of her. Since Mu Chen had already discovered the fact that she had an interspace, there was no need for Du Yue to hide anymore. She directly took out a gun from the interspace.
Seeing the silver gun in Du Yue’s hand, Mu Chen, who had always been confident, suddenly sat up straight. A look of surprise flashed across his eyes. “He Xing gave you this gun, right? Looks like you have some real ability. He actually gave you such a good thing. In the past, I heard others mention He Xing. I thought he was a very capable person, but now it seems that he is just so-so. He actually gave up his weapon. He really doesn’t have a brain at all!”
Du Yue’s index finger was on the trigger. “You’re really insane.”
Even if he had not heard of it when he was in the interstellar, he had been on the blue planet for so long. Could it be that Mu Chen had not heard of the most classic saying? Du Yue was too lazy to waste any more words with him. She pointed the gun at Mu Chen’s head and pulled the trigger. The bullet flew through the air without making a sound. Mu Chen, who was sitting in the chair, could only watch as the bullet shot toward him. However, he had no intention of dodging..
