The Crazed Little Darling: Pampered by the Possesive Commander!

Chapter 148: This Is an Apple, It’s Delicious

No matter how furious Zong Yan was, Lu Shinian replied lightly, and finally Zong Yan could only angrily hang up the phone.Zong Yan stared at Su Ruan’s figure in the military academy live broadcast room, the more he watched, the more familiar she felt. He always felt that he should have seen this Su Ruan somewhere.

Besides Lu Shinian’s wedding, he should have seen her elsewhere.

But... where exactly?

Zong Yan furrowed his brows and buried his head in deep thought.

————

On Muhe Star, after Qian Duoduo and Zhao Yujie left, Su Ruan was the only one left on this high ground.

Her gaze fell upon the eight people bound together by the creek.

Su Ruan stared at them intently, clutching the bow in her hand.

The Captain and Vice Captain of the Second Legion were very strong. They could use Mecha, easily breaking her arrows.

But she still wanted to try.

Su Ruan gazed at the arrow in her hand, her mind racing, hiding a deep faintness in her pure black pupils.

She made a crazy decision.

Ten minutes later, the Captain and Vice Captain of the Second Legion arrived. Seeing the bound team members from afar, they did not rush over recklessly but cautiously observed the surroundings.

After finding nothing, the Vice Captain approached slightly and asked, "What’s going on? Someone ambushed you? Who did such a despicable thing?"

"Show yourself openly if you have the guts to fight!" This Vice Captain was obviously hot-tempered too.

Just as he finished speaking, an arrow glistened coldly in the sunlight, shooting straight towards the Vice Captain’s calf.

The Vice Captain reacted swiftly, lightly moving to the side to dodge the arrow.

Almost instantly, the Captain standing nearby took out a Mecha from the Space Button.

In a brief second, three arrows were shot, piercing through the air, producing an icy chilling sound.

The Vice Captain hurriedly retreated two steps, while the Captain piloted the Mecha, blocking in front of him.

"On the northeast high ground." The Captain quickly determined the direction from which the arrows were shot.

He raised the right hand of the Mecha and pressed the attack button on the Attack Cannon.

At the same time, seeing the opponent had already discovered her position, Su Ruan did not linger in battle, swiftly retreating two steps, preparing to withdraw when the Attack Cannon came straight at her.

She had nowhere to run.

Su Ruan’s pupils shrank suddenly, instinctively nocking an arrow, drawing the bow, her spiritual power tendrils wrapping around the arrow, shooting straight towards the Attack Cannon.

Everything happened too fast, so fast that the audience in the live broadcast room couldn’t react, the cold arrow pierced through, the tip shrouded faintly in white light.

Su Ruan no longer lingered, quickly retreating, and at that moment, the arrow wrapped in spiritual power pierced through the shell in mid-air.

The shell exploded instantly, flames splattering, that gentle white light hidden under the fiery blaze, unseen by anyone.

The Captain watched the shell suddenly explode in mid-air, a thoughtful look passed through his eyes.

Just now, what stopped the shell... what exactly was it?

Could it be a new type of weapon developed by another legion?

The opponent managed to break his Attack Cannon without even taking out a Mecha; when did other legions produce such formidable figures?

"Captain?" The Vice Captain had already untied the others, "Should we pursue?"

The Captain put away the Mecha, shook his head, and replied, "No need."

He looked at the eight people with lowered heads full of guilt, and composed his expression, "Tell me, what happened?"

————

After Su Ruan swiftly retreated from the high ground, she quickly arrived at the cave where she stayed last night.

Seeing her arrive, Qian Duoduo and Zhao Yujie finally breathed a sigh of relief.

They had also seen the explosion flames from earlier; if anything happened to Su Ruan, how could they report to Commander Lu?

Fortunately, Su Ruan was fine.

After regrouping, Qian Duoduo composed his expression and whispered, "We can’t stay in this cave."

"After we left, a beast returned here, this should be the territory of that beast."

"Based on my judgment, that beast should be a tiger."

"With our current strength, it’s best not to confront the mountain tiger head-on."

Su Ruan’s face was somewhat pale, nodding slightly.

In that moment earlier, she instinctively exerted all her spiritual power onto the arrow, now feeling empty, terribly uncomfortable.

But to not delay their upcoming plans, Su Ruan forced herself to speak, "We can’t stay here, we must change positions."

"I know of a place." Qian Duoduo recalled the path he took yesterday, "Let’s head over first."

"Alright." Su Ruan and Zhao Yujie both responded simultaneously.

The three hurriedly left.

Not long after they left, a brown-yellow skinned tiger emerged from the shade.

It tightly stared in the direction the three had gone, its tiger eyes flashing with intelligence unfit for a beast.

After a long while, it stepped forward, following the trio’s tracks.

Unaware of being followed by a tiger, Su Ruan and the others reached the "good place" of which Qian Duoduo spoke.

This was an apple orchard, with apples hanging on trees, looking red and apparently ripe.

As Qian Duoduo said, this was a good place. With these apples, they temporarily didn’t need to worry about food.

Su Ruan casually picked an apple. This was a precious natural food, unexpectedly found here to eat.

She wiped it, ready to take a bite, but was slapped down by Qian Duoduo.

"What are you doing?"

Su Ruan looked at Qian Duoduo, somewhat bewildered, "It’s an apple, tasty."

Qian Duoduo knew it was an apple, but the problem was, this type of wild apple couldn’t be eaten!

"These apples can’t be eaten," Qian Duoduo explained, "They contain too many impurities. Even if your spiritual power is low, eating them will cause atavism."

That’s why, even though nature offers many gifts, natural food remains precious.

Like these naturally grown foods, their impurity content can be as high as 99%. Not to mention those with high spiritual power, even those with spiritual power level E would experience atavism eating something with a 99% impurity content.

Su Ruan was hearing this for the first time. Tianhe Star was so barren that it didn’t even have trees, let alone apple trees.

She knew these from her time in the Otherworld.

Su Ruan glanced down at the apple in her hand, responding with a "Alright."

"These branches are dense enough to hide our forms, let’s rest here for a while," Qian Duoduo proposed.

Su Ruan and Zhao Yujie had no objections.

After finding a hidden spot to sit down, Su Ruan looked at the apple in her hand, her eyelashes slightly trembling.

Her fingertips faintly glowed with white light, as her spiritual power tendrils slowly wrapped around the apple.
