Chapter 276: Escape
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Liao Ning was utterly speechless as she observed Lili’s innocent expression. The elf possessed the face of an angel, and their behavior was truly unexpected.
Liao Xi, who had just taken the pill, appeared slightly bewildered, but she rose to her feet under Lili’s guidance.
Lili extended her wings, which nearly filled the entire cell.
Handing a small amber-colored pill to Liao Ning, she said, “Take this first, before I exert control over you too.”
Without hesitation, Liao Ning swallowed the pill, earning a nod of satisfaction from Lili. Lili then inquired, “Are you ready? I’m about to begin.”
Liao Ning nodded earnestly and positioned herself beside Liao Xi.
Closing her eyes, Lili began to flap her wings. Liao Ning could hear a faint sound followed by the opening of cell doors, accompanied by the roars of wild beasts and the screams of humans.
After a short while, Lili’s forehead glistened with sweat, clearly indicating her struggle.
One minute later, the basement cell filled with the cacophony of collisions and shouts.
Weakened, Lili folded her wings and slumped onto the bed. “No, there are too many large beasts here. I can’t control them for even ten minutes. Let’s go.”
Liao Ning helped Lili to her feet and tied their wrists together with a rope to prevent them from getting separated.
Lifting the weakened Lili, Liao Ning spoke, “There are numerous beasts in the prison. Even without your control, they will escape. We can leave amidst the chaos.”
“I didn’t expect you to be so strong,” Lili remarked with a smile. “I’ll recover after a brief rest. Once I’m out of here, I’m planning to indulge in a feast. I’ve grown tired of the taste of nutritional supplements.”
She then turned to Liao Xi and instructed, “You, old woman, follow her and don’t get lost.”
Liao Xi mechanically nodded, her eyes still clouded.
Lili attempted to adopt a fierce expression, lifting her chin at Liao Ning, as if to say, “Look at me!”
Liao Ning felt even more helpless as she observed Lili pouting. She realized that one couldn’t judge a person solely based on their appearance. Who would have imagined that Lili, who seemed elegant and gentle, possessed such a wild personality?
Amidst the chaos, the three of them made their way out of the cell. The prison was filled with wounded prisoners and unfamiliar beasts that Liao Ning had never encountered before.
Noticing Liao Ning’s surprise, Lili darted around, providing explanations about the various creatures they encountered.
“That’s a coastal planet giant rhinoceros.”
“This fierce-looking creature is a long-billed duck beast, but it’s actually a vegetarian.”
“The one over there is a seven-star beetle. It’s still young, with only two stars on its back.”
Suddenly, Lili’s eyes lit up, and she grabbed Liao Ning, pulling her towards a particular spot.
“Oh my god! That’s the black dragon of the Fire Tribe! It can fly! Let’s ride it to escape!”
A crowd of guards had already gathered around the black dragon. It was evident that the dragon had suffered abuse for a prolonged period, with many scales missing from its body. It wreaked havoc, setting fire to the palace.
Exerting all her strength, Liao Ning dragged Lili to the side. “If you want to escape and stay hidden, you must listen to me now!”
Her tone turned unfriendly as she continued, “The black dragon is attracting all the guards’ attention. If you ride it, you will become the center of attention! Are you out of your mind?”
Lili gazed at the black dragon, while Liao Ning turned her head away. “Stop looking at it. There’s no future for you with it.”
Lili rolled her eyes and pursed her lips, seemingly discontented.
She believed that with the black dragon, she could fly out of the castle within seconds.
Just then, Zhou Ling emerged from the shadows. “The aircraft is ready. Follow me.”
Upon spotting Zhou Ling, Lili’s eyes lit up with excitement. “You’re a Multi-Feather Butterfly?
Why do you resemble a mermaid? Why do you have the scent of a beast? Are you her lover? And how did you acquire this flying machine?”
Sensing that Zhou Ling was on the verge of getting angry, Liao Ning quickly covered Lili’s mouth and shot her a threatening glance.
Only then did Lili blink her eyes, attempting to convey that she would refrain from asking any further questions. Liao Ning finally released her grip.
The four of them boarded the spacecraft tucked away in the corner. In the midst of their departure, numerous other spacecraft took off, all heading toward the beleaguered black dragon.
As their aircraft ascended, Lili glimpsed the heavily bombarded black dragon on the ground. She stole a glance at Liao Ning and playfully stuck out her tongue..
