I'm Not the Young Lady's Dream Girl - [Vol. 2] Chapter 49
[Vol. 2] Chapter 49: Baptism of Fire
Just now, Yinya’s huge hammer was destroyed by the predator’s beam, greatly reducing her combat effectiveness.
“Huh, this monster’s destructive power is really amazing.”
Looking at the hammer shattered into pieces on the ground, Yinya couldn’t help but sigh.
The predator shifted its gaze towards Yinya. Although it could be seen that this guy had more hostility towards Yuluo, for the moment, Yinya’s threat was greater compared to Yuluo. So the predator decided to prioritize dealing with the bigger threat, Yinya.
The predator roared, then extended its own claws towards Yinya. Because the giant hammer was destroyed, Yinya couldn’t summon it again for a short time.
Just as it seemed the claws were about to pierce through Yinya’s body, a black figure suddenly appeared, intercepting before the claws could reach her, saving Yinya.
“Sister Yinya, are you okay?” Yeming held Yinya in her arms, her tail swaying behind her.
Because of her loli-like figure, this was the first time Yeming had held someone in her arms, which made her a little excited.
“I… I’m fine.”
Yinya’s face started to turn red. Did she just get princess-carried by Yeming? She felt her heart beating faster. No, it’s not appropriate now, they’re on the battlefield, she couldn’t afford to think about such messy things.
“It’s good that you’re okay.”
Yeming sighed in relief, thankful that Yinya wasn’t hurt. Otherwise, Mom would definitely be very sad.
“You should hurry back into Yuluo’s ring, it’s very dangerous here now,” Yinya said.
“No, you can’t summon the giant hammer right now, it’s too risky to engage in close combat,” Yeming decisively refused Yinya’s request.
“But…”
Before Yinya could argue, Yeming spoke up first.
“No ‘buts,’ listen to me, I’ll protect you now.”
Dad always said that sometimes it’s necessary to be firm with others, and it yields good results.
“O… okay,” Yinya subconsciously responded.
After Yeming rescued Yinya, Yinyue and Yuluo launched attacks on the predator. However, their attacks had little effect on its scales, this big guy’s defense was astonishingly high.
No wonder it survived that siege, Yinyue couldn’t help but marvel.
If they could summon ?Daytime? at this moment, it would be great. Unfortunately, after ?Silver Light? fell asleep, ?Daytime? was affected too and entered a slumber.
“Sister Yueyue, be careful!” Yuluo shouted to Yinyue.
The predator swung its electric tail, a powerful strike aimed at Yinyue. Yinyue leaped into the air, barely evading the attack.
However, the predator had already opened its mouth, aiming at Yinyue suspended in mid-air. Yinyue gritted her teeth, summoned her light wings, intending to dodge the attack, but the opponent’s bullet was already loaded, it was too late to avoid it now.
Just then, several chains bound the predator’s mouth. Although it didn’t completely shut its mouth, it changed its attack direction, allowing Yinyue to narrowly escape disaster.
The predator shook its head, and the chains quickly shattered under its immense strength.
Yinyue summoned her bow and arrows, a torrential attack heading towards the target. However, the light arrows hitting the enemy’s scales were like raindrops on tiles.
But it didn’t matter, she was just providing cover. The real attack was coming from the young lady.
At this moment, Yuluo approached the predator’s side. She extended her right hand, a pitch-black crossbow appearing in her grasp. She aimed at the predator’s eyes.
Yuluo fired the crossbow, the arrow hitting the predator’s eye. The predator roared in anger, flapping its wings, unleashing a barrage of projectiles all around.
Explosions continued to ring out. After a while, the noise finally ceased, but the surrounding environment had been drastically altered by the explosions.
The predator surveyed its surroundings. When the mist from the explosions cleared, it didn’t find the bodies of Yuluo and her companions. Moreover, the barrier was still up, indicating they were still alive.
The predator roared, summoning more mist beasts. It ordered them to find Yuluo and her companions.
As for where they were, they were hundreds of meters below the surface, in a pitch-black cave. Yinyue illuminated the area with a faint light, and for now, they were safe.
Along with them, Yeming and Yinya were also transported here. It’s unclear if it was because of the sudden turn of events, but after being teleported, Yeming seemed disoriented and lost her balance.
She fell, but not onto the ground. Instead, she landed on a certain silver-haired loli. At the same time, it seemed her right hand was placed in front of Yinya’s chest, which made Yinya’s face flush with heat, even though she was a tough cookie.
“I… I didn’t mean to.” Yeming hastily got up, helping Yinya up as well.
But that sensation… she felt like she’d felt it before. However, in Yeming’s memory, she hadn’t touched Yinya like that. It puzzled Yeming, so she decided to stop thinking about it altogether.
“It’s… it’s okay, I don’t mind.” Yinya said somewhat shyly.
Yinyue looked at the two, sensing something odd. Although everything in front of her seemed normal, there was an indescribable sense of strangeness. Especially with Mom, it was the first time she’d seen her act so coy. Yinyue almost thought she was hallucinating.
As for Yuluo, she smiled faintly on the side, seemingly understanding something but not intending to speak up.
“Ahem, so what do we do now? If it finds out we’re gone and escapes, what then?”
Yinyue interrupted the peculiar atmosphere. She felt they couldn’t let this atmosphere linger any longer.
“Yinyue’s right, we can’t stay here forever.”
Yinya adjusted herself and spoke to them. However, her cheeks still had a faint blush, indicating she hadn’t fully recovered yet.
“Don’t worry, Sister Yueyue, do you remember the arrow I shot into its eye?” Yuluo said.
“Of course I do. You told me it was a trump card, but it didn’t seem to cause much damage to it,” Yinyue replied.
“The arrow itself didn’t do much damage, but I installed a tracking device on the arrowhead.”
Yuluo flipped her hair and then used her abilities to create a table and four chairs, gesturing for them to sit down and talk. The girls took their seats one by one.
“A tracking device? What’s the use of that?” Yinyue asked again.
“It’s useful, trust me. Next, it’s going to experience a baptism of fire,” Yuluo answered Yinyue’s question.
As they talked, the entire cavern suddenly began to shake, as if there were vibrations from above. Yuluo used her abilities to stabilize the cavern.
Meanwhile, above ground, the predator continued to roar, with artillery fire raining down on it. Although it couldn’t cause fatal damage, it would hold it off for a short time.
By then, their reinforcements should have arrived.
