Chapter 64. Specialized SentinelÂ
Seeing Zhan Ye getting closer and closer to her, Su Tang couldn’t help but give him a mental thumbs-up. He had been reluctant when she first made him put on the clothes, but now he even knew how to seduce her while wearing them. This ability to be flexible was truly worthy of a Bai Ta captain.
Su Tang raised her finger and pressed it against Zhan Ye’s forehead, pushing him away with a bit of force.
“Put away those thoughts of yours. Pack up those things you brought and take them back. I wonât hold the matter of the clothes against you anymore. As for the matter of the exclusive Sentinel, let me think about it carefully.”
Having the experience of the last mission, Su Tang was well aware of the danger level this time. She had to be cautious and give careful consideration to the choice of an exclusive Sentinel.
“Mmm, alright. But Sister, do you really not want to give me a try?”
There was a lingering trace of regret in the man’s eyes. Su Tang couldn’t help but roll her eyes. This bird was really thinking about that every single moment.
“If you keep talking nonsense…”
“Alright, alright, I get it, I get it. You don’t need to say more. I’ll leave quietly right now and won’t disturb your thinking.”
Zhan Ye stood up in utter defeat, the sparkly and somewhat eye-stabbing skirt spinning in front of her. The wide hem flared out like a blooming flower.
If one ignored the muscular legs below and the broad back muscles above, it really would have been a beautiful sight to admire.
Now, however, it looked absurd and hilarious no matter how one looked at it.
She lightly tapped the wristband on her wrist to stop the recording function. Su Tang lowered her head, and seeing the “Save Successful” message on her wristband, a flash of craftiness appeared in her eyes.
With this recording in hand, if Zhan Ye ever did those dirty things that made her angry again, she would make him thoroughly famous in the Bai Ta.
Zhan Ye returned to the sofa where he had first sat and swiftly rescued his body from the dress. The red marks on his chest and back added a few hints of suggestiveness to him. After changing into his own clothes, he folded the dress neatly back into the box.
He turned around and asked Su Tang.
“Do you want me to help you put it back where it was, or should I dispose of them?”
Su Tang thought for a moment and still had Zhan Ye put the box back on top of her wardrobe.
Originally, she had found those clothes quite eyesore, but after today’s events, she thought that perhaps these clothes might have unexpected uses in the future.
Unlike Su Tang’s thoughts, Zhan Ye stared strangely at the box on the wardrobe. If he remembered correctly, he had originally chosen eight such outfits for Su Tang. Excluding the one he had just ruined, seven were left.
Su Tang kept these clothes… she couldn’t be thinking of making me try them all one by one in the future, could she?
After curse-shouting at the Sentinels who had given him the idea in his heart, Zhan Ye secretly vowed that in the few days before leaving for the mission, he would definitely fulfill his duties as the captain of the Third Squad and harshly train those little brats. He would ensure their abilities improved by a large margin before the mission.
After placing the box properly, Zhan Ye scooped up the Golden Eagleâwho was facing the back of the sofa as if in self-reflectionâand bid Su Tang farewell.
Once Zhan Ye left, the room returned to tranquility, and Su Tang finally had time to think deeply about this mission.
The last time, just eliminating those two high-level contaminants had been so dangerous, let alone blowing up a cocoon that could split off those spiritual bodies this time. It had been some time since Ya Suo returned to the Bai Ta, and they were still unclear about the evolution speed of those contaminants or how long it took for the cocoon to split them off.
In other words, all the dangers faced in this mission were unknowns. Su Tang had to prepare for the worst.
Thus, she had to think carefully about her choice of an exclusive Sentinel.
During a mission, a Guide’s exclusive Sentinelâs first priority was to ensure the Guide’s safety; the success of the mission was secondary.
She had interacted with the Sentinels of the First and Third Squads. Just as Zhan Ye had said, Mo Xiao was a natural leader on the battlefield; the team needed him to oversee the overall situation. For the sake of the mission, she wouldn’t choose Mo Xiao. As such, she needed to choose someone with high combat power who wouldn’t affect the mission, and she could only think of two candidates.
One was the Vice Captain of the First Squad, Ke Lai, and the other was Zhan Ye, who had just come to offer himself.
It had to be admitted that Zhan Ye’s usual slacking and half-hearted personality had indeed polished the Third Squad’s Vice Captain.
The Vice Captain’s prestige in the Third Squad was second only to Zhan Ye, and his ability to manage the Sentinels in the team was sufficient. The overall situation could be left to Mo Xiao, while Zhan Ye was relatively free.
She also knew Ke Lai’s capabilities from the last mission. Honestly, in the entire First Squad, aside from Mo Xiao, Ke Lai was the strongest.
As for which of the two to choose, Su Tang was still somewhat hesitant.
Knock, knockâ
Not long after it had become quiet, a knock came from the door again. Su Tang gave a helpless smile. She really was popular since moving into this dormitory.
Opening the door, she saw Mo Xiao standing there. His black combat uniform made his figure appear even more upright. His usually cold brows had softened a bit, and a faint warmth rippled in his eyes when he saw Su Tang.
“Captain Mo, are you also here to talk to me about the mission?”
Also?
Mo Xiao keenly caught that word. Who else had come to talk to her about this?
The doubt had only just arisen when he found the answer himself. Aside from that fellow Zhan Ye who was also going on the mission, who else would move so quickly?
Su Tang welcomed Mo Xiao in. The Silver Wolf followed behind Mo Xiao, and upon seeing her, it couldn’t stop circling around her feet.
Su Tang hadn’t seen this little fellow for several days either. She leaned down, picked it up, and her fingers nimbly began to rua it.
Perhaps because she had already completely marked Mo Xiao, and knowing that a Sentinel would not have any ill intentions toward the Guide who marked them, Su Tang’s attitude toward Mo Xiao was more relaxed than usual.
“Captain Mo came at the right time. I also want to hear your thoughts on this mission.”
Watching the girl sitting opposite him, holding his spiritual entity in her arms and playing happily with it, Mo Xiao’s eyes couldn’t help but brim with warmth.
“Zhan Ye should have already told you the mission requirements, so I won’t repeat them. This mission is extremely dangerous. I’ve thought about the choice of your exclusive Sentinel back and forth, and I feel only two people are suitable.”
Hearing Mo Xiao’s words, Su Tang arched an eyebrow slightly.
“Which two?”
“One is our First Squad’s Vice Captain, Ke Lai, and the other is Zhan Ye.”
