Bab 40: Sia Case.
Having a system is a true blessing. If not for it, Feng was aware that there was nothing he could have done to save the young woman named Sia, who was at the time tightly fast asleep on the bed.
It took Feng Lin nine hours of hurried driving to get here from the other city, but he had made sure to get as far away from it as possible.
Feng was aware that the emergency system he had set up had likely saved Sia's life and he was glad to have been a part of the process.
Despite the long journey and lack of sleep, he felt a sense of satisfaction that the system he had put in place worked.
"Seeing her like this while she sleeps makes it hard for me to give her the beuro hand."
"The perpetrator must be a high-ranking employee or have some other tenuous connection to the organisation."
+++++++++++++++++
"Sia, you must make a crucial decision. I can offer my assistance, but ultimately, your choice will be what matters." After all, Feng's options were restricted, and a lot of issues could develop in the future.
As a result, it was required that each of them be ready for everything that might occur in the future.
Although he was ready to assist her, he has been given a new task to complete.
[_Quest: Free Sia from the Elder of the Blood Night Sect, whis is located in TradeBell City_]
A figure, dressed in black, emerges from the water-filled tube in the city's bowels of TradeBell, his ruthless intent oozing from every orifice. which was engulfing the entire area in a dangerous atmosphere and inching closer and closer to the lizards.
"Who the fuck was that guy?" It mumbled something in human language, but the shape and size of its tongue made its words sound too twisted and slippery to be understood.
Bloodlust emanated from each of them, like the presence of a master martial artist, but the man next to him simply nodded his head silently as he looked around the group and left the underground area.
Unknown to everything, Feng Ling was sleeping on the bed, where a sickly-looking girl was sitting beside him and looking around with vigilance... as if making certain that no one would take away the guy beside her who was fate's last hope for her.
"You can relax too, Sia." As if the other guy had a sixth sense, he opened his eyes when he felt the slight tremor beside him, signaling that Sia had awoken once more.
The little girl's natural response to being trapped in the pool was to wake up at regular intervals (usually every two hours) and call out for help.
Even though she didn't have to scream for help, her body still got used to the routine and started waking her up at regular intervals of two or three hours.
It took a lot of effort to get her to sleep again, but Feng Lin was getting used to it as he checked the time and considered how three days had passed. He had no luck getting in touch with the ladies or his sister Mia, who were likely busy getting ready for the beach.
"Hmm." He sensed a number of presences near him whenever he contemplated them.
They all used stealthy climbing techniques to scale the building, and their combined strength hinted at the Master realm, though it was clear that they were not quite on par with a typical expert of that level.
"While they may be less powerful than average, they are all Master Realm. I don't know how the enemy managed to assemble such a formidable force, but I can assure you that I'm not alone in this."
Feng smiled as he thought about how spirit wine helps fatty duan and his worker group get better at the internal martial arts that he had taught them.
Fatty had made 12 internal martial artists who were at the top of their physical abilities. He also appointed as Executioner Master two internal martial artists he had stolen from poor families in his hometown.
He shut his eyes and let his focus sink to the point where the guards from the adjacent apartment emerged from their room. They looked at each other warily, but with a hint of excitement:
"It's up to you guys to show me that my investment in you was not in vain by tearing this group of intruders apart for me."
Feng knew they were eager to put their training to the test against an actual adversary rather than just a sparring partner, so he gave them the intruders to deal with.
"Yes." Feng Lin returned to the girl's bedside and looked at her as she continued to sleep soundly, at which point he and the others fell silent.
He wondered if the girl would be hungry when she woke up, so he decided to go grocery shopping after everyone else had finished fighting their common enemy.
He could always ask someone else to help him out, though.
"That's not necessary; I'll save time and money by going there myself, and that way I can pick out the strongest herbs that work best with my cooking method."
Herbs. take on the strengths and weaknesses of their parents.
In some herbs, the natural essence is concentrated to the point where they can be used as medicine. Some are useful for cooking, while others have the right amount of medicinal thickness thanks to their sun-dried essence and heated preservation method.
'But, after all this time of eating herbs this and herbs that, it is time for her to start digesting some light non-herbal medicinal cooking. The slight pinkish look on the girl's face prompted Feng to remember that he should also start feeding her some food that normal people consume on occasion as he was about to cook those herbal cooking again.
"Apple risotto would be ideal because it is sweet and tangy, which will do wonders for her refined palate." He mumbled something under his breath and headed for the kitchen, where he planned to begin preparing food for the slumbering princess on the bed.
However, the intruders dispersed into three groups, with one planning to descend the building's exterior stairwell to the 12th floor. Although the other four had dealt with the building employee and were now bringing the food trolley up to the 12th floor.
The third group of 2 went missing, after some time, but Feng Lin could tell what happened to them.
Given that they dared to enter the room next to him in order to attack him from the other side of the wall.
They had no idea their fate was sealed because the Executioner was resting in the same room.
So, the two strongest individuals were immediately restrained and knocked out by the two old friends the moment they entered the room.
"Hmm, big brother." Soon after that, Sia woke up from her nap and saw Feng standing by the kitchen door, staring at the TV while reading the subtitles.
The practice was one of Feng's few new routines designed to help him master the English language. "Oh, I see that you are getting plenty of energy to wake up once in a while." Saying that, he walked by her side and touched her forehead, which had a tint of sweat coming from her body, which was a rather good sign.
"I've been meaning to make you some risotto with apples, which is one of the best options for girls your age, so from now on, you can eat some delicious food too." Feng returned the nice and warm risotto to Sia while conversing with her.
Sia looked at the steaming plate of food and smiled contentedly, but before she dug in, she wanted to ask her big brother the question she'd been saving up for a long time: "Big brother, can you tell me your name?"
This caught Feng off guard, but he had been thinking about the answer to her question for quite some time.
"Hmm, I'm Feng Lin, the older sibling of a girl named Mai."
Sia almost went numb after hearing the familiar name of Feng Lin and the unfamiliar name of Mai, so she put her spoon on the dish and stared at Feng Lin in shock for a long time.
"Big Brother of Mai, am I truly safe?" Sia was shocked, happy, angry, and feeling a lot of other things.
She looked relieved, as if an extra weight had been lifted off her chest, and her body and instinct told her to rely on Feng.
"Is Mai okay? What about other sister?" Sia was clearly interested in hearing about Ning, so Feng made her laugh for the first time by telling her how Ning was doing her best and how he planned on hiring her no matter what.
Feng also noticed that Sia was a talkative girl and that the dark air around her began to dissipate as she spent more time chatting with him.
Where the guards who had finished with the other invaders eventually gathered their dead bodies in the incinerator and burned them all, while Duan personally came to talk it out with hotel staff.
"I'm not sure what that idiot did this time, but as his brother, I can only cover his sorry ass for now, so your staff had nothing to do with it and will not be bothered by it again."
Duan, who was sitting in front of the hotel manager, grumbled to himself, but his voice carried far enough for others to hear it across the room and through the wall.
Although the rest of the team may have seen this as a form of negotiation, having Duan around made it seem like he was issuing a different set of directives.
Their manager, on the other hand, could barely do more than nod his head occasionally.
