45: The little girl who can fire air cannons is not to be trifled with!

"Xiao Ai, take the supplies back to the ship first. If you run into Tang Ran and the others, tell them to come and provide backup!"

In a dark corner of the alleyway, Chen Du tossed the backpack filled with life essence and rare metals to Xiao Ai.

"The situation inside is unclear; it's easy for you to get killed if you go in. Nuonuo and I will scout the way first!"

Xiao Ai caught the backpack.

She gave Chen Du a deep look and didn't waste any words: "Understood. Be careful."

As Xiao Ai's agile figure disappeared, Chen Du turned to look at An Nuonuo, whose legs were still trembling.

"Alright, stop shaking. Let's go and bring those troublemakers home."

"C-Captain... are we really going to crawl inside?"

An Nuonuo pointed at the writhing, semi-circular fleshy entrance ahead, her small face pale.

It didn't look like a door at all.

It looked more like the contracting... sphincter of a giant creature.

The surrounding walls had turned into dark red flesh, covered in slimy gastric juices that were slowly dripping down the texture.

"This is the Sacred Kun's drainage outlet. In layman's terms, it's the rectum."

Chen Du shared this knowledge expressionlessly while tossing a strip of cloth soaked in peppermint oil to An Nuonuo.

"Tie it tight, unless you want to throw up everything you ate last night."

An Nuonuo did as she was told with a pitiful expression, following behind like a mistreated little wife.

One after the other, the two of them crawled into this intestinal tract.

Gurgle... gurgle... a dull rumbling came from deep within the surrounding fleshy walls.

The further they went, the stronger the shivering sensation of being watched became.

"We're here."

Chen Du suddenly stopped, leaning against a protruding piece of white cartilage.

The view ahead suddenly opened up.

It was a fleshy cavity the size of a football field.

Countless semi-transparent tubes hung from the dark red dome, with glowing liquid flowing through them toward the giant, pulsating heart in the center.

Thump, thump, thump... With every beat of the heart, the entire space vibrated.

"Let me go! Get away! You animals!!"

Suddenly, cries and screams came from within.

An Nuonuo poked her small head out to take a look and was so scared she almost screamed.

In the very center of the cavity, over a dozen tentacles were hanging down.

At the end of each tentacle, a girl in tattered clothes was wrapped up.

Li Yaozhi, Zhou Qian, and the other missing female students were all here!

They were in terrible condition.

Li Yaozhi's arms were suspended in the air by tentacles, and her JK uniform was torn to shreds.

Those long, straight, beautiful legs hung limply, and metal rings for monitoring vital signs were still attached to her ankles.

The one screaming the most piteously was Zhou Qian.

Her seductive, tight-fitting dress had been torn into rags.

Large patches of snowy skin were exposed to the foul air, and her skin was covered in welt marks.

Below them, about a dozen burly Elite Goblins were gathered.

These monsters had eerie deep purple skin and were holding various instruments and syringes, critiquing the girls.

"Gibberish... good bone structure, a high-quality mother..."

"Quack quack... pelvic width is acceptable, can give birth to a whole litter..."

A Goblin Shaman with a mohawk used his dirty, pustule-covered hands to grab Zhou Qian's chin.

He pried open her mouth as if inspecting livestock.

Thick, disgusting saliva dripped from his fangs, landing on Zhou Qian's high chest.

"Aaaaah! Don't touch me! I'm not clean! I'm sick!"

Zhou Qian twisted in a breakdown, her face covered in tears and snot. "Please... I have AIDS! I have syphilis! Whoever touches me dies! Don't touch me!!"

To save her life, she didn't hesitate to throw filth on herself.

But this only incited the monster's ferocity.

The Goblin Shaman let out an excited screech and ripped away Zhou Qian's last shred of dignity.

"Quack quack... Sick? Perfect! The Duke's alchemical potions need exactly this kind of filthy mother to cultivate antibodies!"

These words completely shattered Zhou Qian's final psychological defense.

"B-Beasts..."

An Nuonuo was shaking with rage, her small fists clenched white. "Captain! Let's do something! Zhou Qian is about to be..."

"Shh!"

Chen Du pressed down on her shoulder, his gaze cold. "Wait a little longer."

"Wait longer?!" An Nuonuo looked at Chen Du in disbelief. "If we wait any longer, someone's going to die!"

"A dozen elite monsters swarming at once—how many seconds do you think you can last?"

"This is a fight to the death, not playing house. If you want to save people, learn to endure first."

Chen Du whispered in her ear, rapidly analyzing the situation.

"Elite Goblins have thick skin and carry toxins. One Shaman has a group Bloodlust spell."

It was very tricky!

"Then... then what do we do? Just watch?" An Nuonuo asked back.

Just then, the Goblin Shaman seemed to catch a scent.

"Siss-ha!! There are rats!"

A sharp screech!

Three Elite Goblins holding bone clubs came charging toward them with a roar!

They were so fast they left afterimages!

"Ah!! We've been spotted!!"

An Nuonuo screamed, instinctively crouching and covering her head, completely forgetting that she was also a gifted esper.

A foul wind blew against their faces!

The Goblins were getting closer and closer!

Smack!

Chen Du slapped An Nuonuo's perky bottom.

"Stop screaming! You're drawing aggro!"

Chen Du's voice rang in her ear: "Use your talent! Compress the air in front of you! Push it out for me!!"

The stinging pain from her buttocks cleared the fear from An Nuonuo's mind.

The little loli closed her eyes and pushed her hands forward fiercely!

"G-Get away from me!!"

Whoosh—!

In that instant, the invisible air around her was compressed into substance!

With An Nuonuo's palms as the center, the space ahead suddenly distorted!

Boom!!!

A visible, semi-transparent air bullet slammed hard into a Goblin!

There was no contest.

That two-meter-tall, muscular elite monster screamed as it was sent flying back over twenty meters!

Its body was like a smashed tomato, splattered against the fleshy wall opposite!

The kind that couldn't even be scraped off!

The aftershock of the airwave also knocked over the other two charging Goblins!

The entire place went silent for a moment.

Even the Goblins who were inspecting the bodies stopped what they were doing, staring blankly at the green and white mosaic on the wall.

An Nuonuo opened her eyes and looked at her small hands.

"I... I did this?"

The little loli's body swayed, her head buzzing.

"Awesome! Beautiful!"

Chen Du was also shocked; he hadn't expected this little loli's burst to be so powerful!

Since the cannon had fired, then it was time to—start the slaughter!

He took a step forward and quickly cut into the battlefield!

"Move! Don't give them a chance to breathe!"

Chen Du drew his tachi and delivered two consecutive slashes in the gloom.

The two Goblins that had just been knocked over by the airwave were about to crawl up when a line of blood appeared at their throats.

Thud!

Two ugly heads rolled to the ground.

"Sacrifice!"

The ritual ended, and Chen Du gained 3 minutes of [Haste]!

His speed suddenly increased!

"It's the Captain!! The Captain is here to save us!!"

The girls hanging in the air wept with joy!

That feeling of returning to the world of the living from hell made them cry heart-wrenchingly!

Li Yaozhi remained relatively calm.

Looking at Chen Du as he slaughtered the Goblins, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

"Chen Du, you're three minutes late."
