My Arms Can Turn into Blades

Chapter 430 2: How Is This Possible!? (2)

Swoosh——

In the moment Chen Lusi looked towards the elevator, she activated First Line directly, appearing in front of the elevator in an instant.

Tang Language followed closely behind, both of them pressing the elevator button almost simultaneously.

Yet the elevator did not arrive, and the numbers did not change at all.

Chen Lusi frowned slightly.

Tang Language spun around, immediately transforming into her original form and leapt forward.

But the expected space distortion did not occur.

She did not disappear, instead she dropped straight from mid-air.

Tang Language reverted to human form, realizing she couldn't leave, her expression turned grim: "…The permissions have been altered?"

"Impossible."

Shan Li approached, not looking too pleased either, seemingly having anticipated the current situation: "The permissions here can't be altered, Xia Yue Celestial Strategy isn't that easy to deal with. They must have layered something on the outermost to restrict your 'Tail-Bundling Shuttle' ability, obviously knowing you're with Chen Lusi, and waited for you to come in before making a move."

"Ha? Then what good is it to lock us in here? Do they really expect us to just surrender?"

Tang Language said incredulously: "Or do they think that everything will be fine with us here? Do they take Xia Yue and others as pushovers?"

"Under normal circumstances, doing this is, of course, meaningless."

Shan Li glanced at her phone, finding no signal, she coldly said: "But what if everyone's memories outside were altered and they became theirs? They can't make a direct move on Chen Lusi, because you're by her side, plus an entire squad of the Security Army protects her, your tier is quite high, altering your cognition is difficult, let alone there's an unstable factor, Chen Lusi.

Once something unexpected happens, like you or Chen Lusi reacting, then Xia Yue and Ji Xin Celestial Strategy would immediately get wind and rush over.

It would be troublesome then, it's better to trap you here, and before Xia Yue and Ji Xin Celestial Strategy get the news, make use of the time difference to deal with the external Security Army and active combatants first, they're not as tough as you to deal with.

Finally finishing with you, isolated and helpless, the success probability will be higher, and even if it ultimately fails, it doesn't matter, because as long as they control Celestial Strategy Mansion Headquarters, they will somehow acquire the Celestial Punishment Weapon... seems that Ivan and Yevgeny came prepared, no wonder they delayed their arrival at the Imperial Capital, just don't know if this is an act of the Chamomile Alliance or involves other powers."

"…"

Tang Language looked bewildered, not sure if she understood.

On the other side.

Chen Lusi understood.

He took a deep breath, immediately thinking about the two sisters outside, he turned sharply to the tightly shut elevator door, about to move forward.

Shan Li knew what he intended, quickly reached out her hand: "Don't."

Chen Lusi frowned at Shan Li.

"The entire 'prison' and the floor are integrated, once severe artificial destruction occurs, the entire 'prison' would be cast to Yellow Springs... this includes the ground and ceiling we're on, also including the elevator shaft."

Shan Li glanced at the innermost few rooms, explained: "This is an emergency protocol, because it's not only Anna detained here."

Chen Lusi was taken aback upon hearing this, then asked: "No other exit?"

"No, Tang Language's 'Tail-Bundling Shuttle' is the emergency passage, normally even if the elevator malfunctions, it's not a big deal, because several Celestial Strategy members are at the headquarters, just wait a bit or have Tang Language pick up people."

Shan Li shook her head: "Obviously they also knew this, that's why they trapped us here."

Chen Lusi stared at the tightly shut elevator door: "…"

At this moment.

Tang Language seemed to finally react, excitedly said: "Yeah! What should we do? We're trapped here! Can't forcibly break the walls to get out! Ji Xin and Xia Yue can't receive the message, if the other members are affected, they simply won't realize we're missing! What do we do!?"

"…"

Shan Li didn't respond to her, instead bowed her head thinking of a way to relay a message.

The other side obviously came prepared.

Maybe from the day Ivan and Yevgeny decided to delay their visit to the Imperial Capital, they started preparing.

So many days, enough for them to consider everything.

Thus, relying on conventional methods to relay a message is definitely impossible.

And unconventional methods… Tang Language's ability is restricted, can't be relied on.

If she activates Authority, she could affect the higher-ups, but the problem is this 'prison' would also be affected, and if it's cast into Yellow Springs,

The situation would become more troublesome.

Shan Li kept pondering various possibilities, and the more she thought, the grimmer her face became, her icy blue eyes gradually tinged with anxiety.

But at this moment.

Chen Lusi turned to look at the two, suddenly asked: "…Could talisman work?"

"…"

"…Yes!!!"

Tang Language was first stunned, then suddenly reacted, directly bouncing in place, and then stepping on her floor-sweeping skirt, stumbled forward…

Chen Lusi reached out to support her.

Shan Li slowly raised her head, looking at Chen Lusi's sharp-featured face, let out a huge sigh of relief.

If there's anything they didn't think of, perhaps it's just this.

Maybe no one expected it.

Chen Lusi now has another layer of identity.

…

…

At the same time.

Wu You finally, along with that Mi Jie, found Jin Yi.

Jin Yi hadn't changed much, still wore a menacing face, a murderous aura between his brows, and his retro tortoiseshell glasses couldn't salvage his demeanor.
