Chapter 1119: Chapter 1118: Unrestrained
Moreover, "Jiang Cheng reached out and pointed: "In such an environment, it’s particularly easy to have such caves.
Well, let’s get started." Yanran suggested.
"Okay." Jiang Cheng nodded, and the two of them started searching among the piles of rocks.
This pile of rocks wasn’t very large, and it didn’t take long for them to see the entrance to the cave where Ba Lv fell.
This should be it, "Jiang Cheng looked below and observed the situation inside the cave: "This cave doesn’t look small, and given the height, Ba Lv couldn’t have gotten out.
"I’ll go down first. Are you sure you want to follow? The spaceship needs someone to guard." Jiang Cheng once again asked Yanran.
Yanran didn’t have any hesitation: "I want to go down. Staying in the spaceship won’t give me peace of mind. Let me go down."
Yanran called the Flaming Firebird: "Alice, Alice!
The Flaming Firebird circling overhead landed at her side.
"Alice, guard the spaceship, don’t wander off, understood?" Yanran instructed the intelligent bird.
The Flaming Firebird "cawed" twice in response.
Yanran patted her head: "Good girl."
Then she followed Jiang Cheng into the cave.
Shi Su was waiting for her not far away.
When Yanran reached the front, she saw the corpses of those monsters on the ground.
Indeed, some of these corpses were killed by Ba Lv with a short sword, "Jiang Cheng had already examined the corpses: "And some of the wounds were caused by other creatures.
Yanran also saw, it seemed Ba Lv had been attacked by monsters right after falling into the cave. She asked Jiang Cheng: "I just don’t understand, why did she make such a bloody scene."
The few monster corpses in front of them were almost all incomplete, each having been split open by Ba Lv.
Moreover, Yanran was definitely not wronging her. Just look at the wounds on the monster corpses to know that only the sharp short sword in her hand could cause such neat wounds.
Could it be to vent her anger?" Yanran asked Jiang Cheng.
Not likely, "Jiang Cheng continued to examine the monster corpses: "Based on my judgment, I think she was searching for something in the monster corpses.
Yanran, as a girl, had little interest in studying the shredded corpses before her, so she stood aside, not bothering to examine them carefully.
However, the monster’s insides were intact, "Jiang Cheng stood up: "How strange, what was she doing?
We should leave, "Yanran hurried to leave this pile of corpses.
Killing these monsters is one thing, but probing and examining these bloody corpses is another.
Alright, let’s go." As they were leaving, Jiang Cheng glanced at the monster corpses again, perplexed about what Ba Lv was searching for.
They followed the trail left by Ba Lv and continued forward.
Along the way, Yanran was very curious about the gradually increasing green plants and various animals. She never expected that in such extremely cold climate outside, there would be a space like this.
Stop just staring at those flowers and plants, "Jiang Cheng saw Yanran lingering among the lush grass and blooming wildflowers, and couldn’t help but remind her: "There are a lot of small animals here, they will attract carnivorous creatures.
"I will be careful, teacher. Don’t you think these flowers and plants make one feel happy?"
Yanran spoke to herself: "By the way, once we find Ba Lv, I want to dig up some wildflowers to take back to the spaceship. It’s too dull there.
Our journey is long, and having these plants for decoration will improve our mood.
Yanran spoke to Jiang Cheng.
Jiang Cheng said nothing.
He didn’t understand the small thoughts of girls, and another reason was he had little interest in these leisurely things. Although he admitted that placing a few pots of green plants in the spaceship was beneficial, he still thought these things were dispensable.
The time spent caring for flowers and other organisms would be better spent reading books.
However, magical creatures like the Flaming Firebird are still worth the time.
Seeing Yanran lingering among the flowers and plants, Jiang Cheng didn’t have the heart to urge her all the time.
After so many days in the spaceship, the monotonous life was burdensome for both of them.
Especially since Yanran belongs to the Fergus Race of Busby Alorri; they are extremely interested in all kinds of exquisite things and like to fiddle with them.
Back on Delmar Planet, wasn’t the Master of Casting who forged claws for Yanran at his home also surrounded by many potted plants?
Teacher, wait for me a moment, just a little while longer, I’ll be quick." Yanran said to Jiang Cheng.
At this moment, her mood was quite good.
Ba Lvluo clearly had no trouble, and she didn’t have an incident as Yanran feared in the blizzard’s ravaging.
Although they couldn’t see her trail yet, Yanran believed there were no monsters here that could be her match.
Moreover, even if there are creatures Ba Lv can’t defeat, she can always choose to flee.
Once she starts running, Yanran believes it would be almost impossible to catch her.
After all, she is a top-tier assassin, ones who excel at concealing their whereabouts - a skill that is essential for an assassin.
Yanran even thought if monsters were chasing her, they’d be fortunate not falling into traps Ba Lvluo set.
This is what Ba Lv told Yanran in their casual chats before.
An assassin isn’t a warrior; they don’t necessarily have to complete tasks with a determination to die.
They need to retain their strength, observe the target carefully, find their weaknesses, and choose a suitable moment to launch a thunderous attack on the target.
This is what an assassin should do.
Even if the task isn’t completed, they shouldn’t fight adversaries head-on but retreat completely and timely.
During the retreat, some methods must be used to hide their traces, trying to avoid opponents from figuring out their intentions.
Moreover, even when escaping, it shouldn’t just be fleeing. They must set traps and snares during the escape.
If they just flee without any counterattack, the pursuers will chase recklessly, placing the assassin entirely in a passive position, which is extremely disadvantageous for them.
Traps must be set, even if only one or two, so when the adversaries suffer, they become cautious, no longer recklessly advancing.
In this way, the fleeing assassin gains time, and at this moment for the assassin, there’s nothing more important than time.
When Ba Lv said these words to Yanran, she remembered she was quite amazed to hear.
She hadn’t expected being an assassin to be this complex.
She hadn’t foreseen that the seemingly harmless Ba Lv would have such skills.
Seeing Ba Lv’s angelic face, and thinking about those creatures that met their end at her hands under her angelic guise, she couldn’t help but shiver.
