Chapter 618: Chapter 614 Arriving at the Destination

Fang Xiaocao had no choice but to give up on further pestering Hot Noodles.

"Who could it possibly be?"

Fang Xiaocao looked at the photo sent by Hot Noodles on her phone screen.

The girl in the photo appeared youthful and awkward, not yet fully grown.

Fang Xiaocao guessed that she was most likely still a student—either middle school or high school.

She examined the photo for a while, hoping to find some clues within it.

The background of the photo showed barren fields under a sunset.

There wasn’t the slightest bit of useful reference value.

The girl’s outfit was casual sportswear, youthful and full of vitality.

However, it wasn’t branded clothing, so it was hard to find clues from her attire.

Fang Xiaocao scrutinized the photo carefully, staring at it for a long, long time.

Eventually, she reluctantly saved the photo and opened the map sent by Hot Noodles.

The photo didn’t provide any meaningful leads.

It could only serve as a reference for locating the girl, so Fang Xiaocao had no choice but to follow Hot Noodles’ instructions and visit the location shown on the map.

The place marked on the map wasn’t far away; it was even within Tang City.

This particular spot was one Fang Xiaocao vaguely remembered visiting. She recalled there was nothing special about it.

Her memory suggested there had been an abandoned village and barren fields there.

"Hmm?"

"Barren fields?"

Fang Xiaocao reopened the girl’s photo, carefully focusing on the background of the fields.

The background gradually overlapped with fragments of her vague memory.

"It really seems to be the same place."

"Could the girl be living in that village?"

"Or perhaps she used to live there?"

Fang Xiaocao muttered to herself, thinking this guess made sense.

Otherwise, Hot Noodles wouldn’t have sent her to this location.

With a clear objective now, Fang Xiaocao couldn’t sit still.

She was itching to immediately fly to the abandoned village to investigate.

Fang Xiaocao didn’t hesitate any longer and quickly stood to prepare for action.

The quicker she reached the village, the quicker she might find the girl in the photo.

After all, Hot Noodles had mentioned that the girl was currently in danger.

Her task was to find and protect the girl.

And the ones chasing after the girl were assassin bionic robots.

"Bionic robots?"

"Could this have something to do with Qi Yu?"

Fang Xiaocao narrowed her eyes slightly, a flash of killing intent flickering through the gaps.

If Qi Yu was indeed the one pursuing this girl, then Fang Xiaocao had even more reason to protect her.

With this thought, Fang Xiaocao quickly headed upstairs.

Five minutes later!

Fang Xiaocao changed into combat-ready sportswear and ran swiftly downstairs.

"Xinyan, notify Mantis and Taotie to come with me."

Fang Xiaocao stopped in front of the weapons cache, selecting suitable weapons while instructing Jiang Xinyan.

"Understood, Princess Your Highness."

Jiang Xinyan nodded in acknowledgment and immediately went to inform Taotie and Mantis.

Fang Xiaocao glanced at the dazzling array of weapons in the cache, all items that Tom had specially prepared for her.

They were her favorite types of weapons.

After some hesitation, Fang Xiaocao decided not to choose firearms.

After all, they were heading into the city, and it would be best to avoid the use of firearms if possible.

Besides, she was proficient in hypnotism, not to mention she was a top-tier Hypnotist, and she had the Blood Jade Ring as her trump card.

Ordinary firearms weren’t necessarily more effective than her hypnotism.

Furthermore, ordinary firearms were useless against bionic robots.

They couldn’t penetrate the alloy skin of bionic robots.

Carrying them would be as pointless as hauling firewood—completely impractical.

Fang Xiaocao strapped on a dagger bag as her long-range weapon.

While hidden weapons weren’t effective against bionic robots, they worked well against human targets.

After all, Fang Xiaocao was now a top-tier hidden weapon master.

Currently, apart from her first-class close combat ability, all her other skills were top-tier.

She was now an outstanding warrior capable of handling missions on her own.

If her abilities were effective against bionic robots, Fang Xiaocao would have considered undertaking this mission alone.

Besides the dagger bag, Fang Xiaocao chose an alloy dagger.

This weapon was designed specifically to combat bionic robots.

The material for it was extracted directly from the alloy long swords used by bionic robots.

However, the alloy long swords were too large, and neither Fang Xiaocao nor Tom was accustomed to using long swords, so they had them re-forged into alloy daggers.

Other than the dagger bag and alloy dagger, Fang Xiaocao didn’t choose additional weapons.

Under normal circumstances, these selections would suffice.

If she hadn’t known in advance that the enemies were going to be bionic robots, Fang Xiaocao might not have carried any weapons, or perhaps only the dagger bag to deal with ordinary humans.

When facing enemies of her level, Fang Xiaocao preferred to use hypnotism.

For a skilled close combat warrior, their body was their weapon.

For a hypnotist, even a glance or a sound could become a weapon.

It was somewhat like the distinction between a mage and a warrior in a game.

"Princess Your Highness."

Footsteps echoed as Taotie and Mantis walked into the living room.

"Follow me on this mission; we may encounter bionic robots. Grab alloy weapons just in case."

Fang Xiaocao opened the door to the weapons cache and let Taotie and Mantis choose their gear.

Taotie nonchalantly grabbed an alloy dagger.

At his level, he rarely needed weapons except when combatting bionic robots.

Only when fighting opponents of equal strength could weapons truly demonstrate their value.

For less skilled enemies, Taotie didn’t even bother with weapons.

At most, they would waste his time.

Mantis picked an alloy long sword; she wasn’t comfortable using daggers.

If she couldn’t rely on her Kung Fu and had to choose a weapon, swords were her best choice.

"Princess Your Highness, where are we heading?"

Taotie asked.

Fang Xiaocao lifted her phone and sent the map to Taotie: "We’re going here to find a girl."

Then, she forwarded the girl’s photo to Taotie and Mantis.

"This girl is very crucial. She’s being pursued by bionic robot assassins, and I suspect Qi Yu is involved."

"We need to find her before Qi Yu does and protect her from him and the bionic robots."

"She has an important role to play in the future."

Fang Xiaocao spoke with a serious expression.

Seeing Fang Xiaocao’s solemn look, Taotie and Mantis became vigilant.

They nodded and said, "Understood."

Taotie drove the three out of the Mountain Foot Villa.

Following the navigation, they headed toward the location marked on the map.

The spot was not far from the villa, in the same district.

The straight-line distance was approximately forty kilometers.

Under Taotie’s aggressive driving style, akin to flying, they soon arrived at the destination.

The barren fields from the photo background were already visible to Fang Xiaocao.

"Stop the car here."

This spot was about six or seven hundred meters from the abandoned village.

Walking would take only a bit of time.

Fang Xiaocao wanted to check out the barren fields first to see if there were any clues left behind.

After all, she wasn’t certain when the photo had been taken. If it had been recent, the girl might have left something behind.
