Chapter 494: Chapter 493 The Most Adorable Duke Who Doesn’t Move

Ward number two.

Shao Zifeng, with his eyes closed, was quietly standing in front of the hospital bed, arm raised.

The room was filled with gray and black thorny vines, protecting his body in the middle.

The deer’s antlers twinkled with a faint glow, gently pressing against his forehead.

"Heehee~"

At that moment, a crisp laugh resounded.

A petite loli, emerging slowly from the vines, her head adorned with a black veil and a small round hat, and her long, silver hair immaculately groomed, revealing a slender, pale neck. She wore a Gothic-style black puffy dress with lace-edged skirts exposing legs enveloped in white silk stockings, and her feet were in black round-toe leather shoes.

An exquisite black folding fan covered the lower half of her face, making one curious about the face hidden behind the fan.

The petite loli, floating lightly, settled on Shao Zifeng’s arm, swinging her short legs back and forth.

She gently caressed Shao Zifeng’s face with her small hand, then slowly traced his jawline, neck, and Adam’s apple.

Swish!

The loli closed her fan, revealing crimson lips and a rounded chin.

With one hand caressing Shao Zifeng’s face, she bent down, sniffed, a blush appearing on her pale cheeks, and couldn’t resist extending her tender little tongue for a lick: "Duke, you smell so nice. Lingling really likes it~"

As her fingers lightly brushed over Shao Zifeng’s eyes and brows, a sweet smile formed on her lips.

"Indeed, a Duke who doesn’t resist is the cutest~"

As her hand brushed the other side of his face, Lingling’s smiling expression suddenly froze.

She slowly raised her hand, noticing her fingers stained with bright red blood.

Lingling bowed her head, intently staring at the blood, murmuring to herself, "The Duke’s blood is so sweet, yet why do I feel angered."

The black veil under the small round hat fluttered gently, as a cold breeze somehow entered the room.

Woo woo~

The sound of the wind grew stronger, and Lingling’s body slowly floated mid-air, her Gothic skirt swaying ceaselessly with the wind.

With a gentle tap of her pale hand, the thorny vines in the room disintegrated into elemental particles, revealing the Healing Lulus huddled outside, trembling.

Lingling tilted her head slightly, a red glint flashing under the fluttering black veil.

"You dare to hurt him."

"Pfft!"

Several Healing Lulus screamed, scattering in all directions, appearing to be terrified of Lingling at that moment.

"Hehe~"

Mocking laughter echoed through the wind as starlight emerged on Lingling’s small hands.

A vine throne adorned with starlight appeared in the room.

"Such a superficial thing."

Crack!

The throne shattered instantly, with a blood-stained Tang sword emerging amidst the debris.

Lingling turned and gently brushed Shao Zifeng’s mouth with her small hand. "Be a good Duke, darling. Lingling will come back to play with you soon."

She then picked up the Tang sword, towering much taller than her.

Red glints flickered beneath the black veil.

Excited, trembling voices echoed through the room.

"After all, it’s time for Lingling’s game~"

Boom boom boom!

The healing center building trembled again, and the windows shattered from the vibration.

As glass sparkled in the dust, thick twisting thorny vines greedily crawled out of the windows, swiftly enveloping the entire building.

Crash.

Just as the shattered glass fell to the ground, glistening fragments scattered everywhere.

Qin Zhenbei yelled with wide-open eyes, "What are you standing there for? Go rescue them!"

The adjutant promptly issued orders, "First squad, assault, rescue the trapped personnel; everyone else, prepare to fight!"

"Yes!"

Neat, uniform footsteps resounded, and all the Stone-armored Giant Rhinoceroses assumed an attacking stance.

"Moo-"

Five of the Stone-armored Giant Rhinoceroses raised their heads and let out a deep roar, marching out of the formation with heavy steps toward the medical center’s building.

Qin Zhenbei watched the retreating backs of the assault team, his expression quite grim.

For the Benshu Army, this terrain was ill-suited for the bulky Stone-armored Giant Rhinoceroses, unless he ordered the buildings to be directly demolished.

"Li Tianwen and Lu Anan, those two bastards."

"Retreat, quickly retreat!"

Just then, the advancing assault team suddenly erupted into chaos, several people looking pale as they rolled and crawled back toward the main troops.

Seeing this, Qin Zhenbei exploded.

He roughly pushed the soldier blocking him aside and kicked toward the chest of the running team leader: "Damn your timid soul!"

The team leader was kicked so hard that he rolled a long distance on the ground; his face showed terror, and before he could stand up, he used his hands to crawl backward.

Qin Zhenbei, seeing this scene, burst out laughing derisively, his eyes red as he yelled, "Whose soldiers are these, stand up!"

"Reporting, they’re my soldiers." The adjutant stepped forward, standing straight without averting his gaze, and saluted.

"You mother’s..."

Qin Zhenbei pointed at the adjutant’s nose but did not curse out the rest.

The adjutant breathed a sigh of relief; after all, being cursed in front of subordinates would be disgraceful. Dissatisfied, he gave the team leader a sharp glance and then his pupils suddenly constricted.

"You, stand up."

"Damn coward, let him lie there, watch me execute him later."

The adjutant didn’t heed Qin Zhenbei, reached out, grabbed the team leader’s arm, and pulled sharply, the sleeve of his camouflage uniform instantly shattered into tatters.

Holding the frayed fabric, the adjutant approached Qin Zhenbei; "General, look."

"This is..." Qin Zhenbei carefully took a piece and examined it, then turned to the soldiers asking, "What exactly happened, tell me clearly, if you can’t, I’ll execute you."

"Gen... General... you see."

The team leader got up from the ground, twisted a piece off his own Stone-armored Giant Rhinoceros, and as white powder fell off, the seemingly hard shell crumbled easily.

"Moo~"

The Stone-armored Giant Rhinoceros let out a low sound, appearing very restless.

Seeing that pile of powder, Qin Zhenbei’s pupils narrowed.

As the leader of the Benshu Army, he was well aware of how hard the Stone-armored Giant Rhinoceros’s shell was; no human strength could shatter it so easily.

He picked up a shard of the shell, applying a slight pressure with two fingers, fine white powder scattered from between the fingers.

Qin Zhenbei said nothing further, squinting his eyes toward the medical center’s building.

Upon closer inspection, he indeed noticed something unusual.

He saw the medical center’s building overlaid with a faint gray mist and veined with black and gray vines.

Through the gaps in the vines, one could vaguely see the walls of the staircase, though the normally sleek tiles had lost their luster and become dull and lightless.

Those dull tiles were covered with cracks, white powder sprinkling down through the gaps.

Not only that, but the plants near the building were visibly yellowing and withering, as if instantly sucked dry of all life, giving off a heavy smell of death.

A time-affected spatial zone?

No.

Setting aside whether such a formidable ability existed.

If it indeed were a temporal ability, then the soldiers who had just entered couldn’t possibly have come out unchanged.

But now was not the time to consider this. Qin Zhenbei turned toward the soldiers of the Benshu Army: "Everyone, move back twenty meters!"

"Yes!"

In a uniform stride, the Benshu Army orderly retreated.

The adjutant watched Qin Zhenbei, who was still standing in place: "General."

"Move back, don’t mind me."

Qin Zhenbei raised a hand, his expression stern.

The trembling ground cracked open a Space Rift.
