Chapter 378 Escape from the Huang Mansion (Completed), The Mechanical God Has No Heart 1
"So we can leave today?" Mu Wanqing was also a little surprised.
"It seems so," Huang Muyan said, taking a sip of porridge.
"When are we leaving?" Mu Wanqing asked. She had overheard what Secretary Zhang had just said.
"It should take a while, we'll have enough time to pack our luggage," Huang Muyan said.
"Oh." Mu Wanqing nodded.
After dinner, Mu Wanqing helped Huang Muyan pack her luggage. After packing, Mu Wanqing went to find Mu Baiyuan and asked him to come and meet them.
Mu Baiyuan was slightly surprised to hear that they could leave today, but she accepted it well.
Since only Huang Muyan had brought luggage with her, Mu Baiyuan quickly found her with Mu Wanqing.
The three followed the group and entered Sunset Town with them.
The army entered Xiyang Town in an orderly manner. Mu Wanqing noticed that every household in Xiyang Town had their doors tightly closed, probably because they were afraid that the army would suddenly break into their homes.
It's probably going to rain soon, Mu Wanqing thought, looking at the dense, dark clouds in the sky.
The part of the army that entered the city seemed to have thought of this as well. A man who clearly looked like a leader stood on a high rock and said to the rest of the army, "Let's rest on this road and not go into the homes of the people!"
The soldiers below responded loudly to what the leader had said, and put down their packs and sat down to rest.
The leader came down from the high rock, walked up to Huang Muyan and the others, saluted, and then began to talk to Huang Muyan, the oldest of the three.
Mu Wanqing listened from the side and heard that the leader decided to send someone to take them to the train station.
A moment later, two young soldiers arrived, saluted Huang Muyan and the other two, and then the group headed towards the train station.
After walking for a short while, Mu Wanqing felt small water droplets pattering on her face. She looked up and saw that it was drizzling.
Mu Wanqing couldn't help but turn back to look at the troops who were planted outside, and found that they were still outside and had not left their positions.
Not a single soldier outdoors disobeyed orders, letting the rain soak them without seeking any cover.
Mu Wanqing glanced at it twice and then looked away, following Huang Muyan and the others to the train station.
Upon arriving at the train station, a train happened to pull in. Huang Muyan, Mu Wanqing, and Mu Baiyuan boarded the train and bid farewell to the soldiers who had come to see them off. The two soldiers saluted the three people on the train.
Mu Wanqing sat by the window, her head resting on the windowsill as she watched the scenery gradually move backward—how novel all of this was!
The rain outside was getting heavier and heavier, as if it wanted to wash away all the filth in the world and create a brand new, clean world. Mu Wanqing looked at the gradually blurring scenery outside the window, and the words spoken by Lu Renkui and the system WQBYRZM came to her mind.
The system, WQBYRZM, tapped the blue screen, which displayed: "The quest progress bar in this world has reached 100%. Do you wish to exit?"
"Can we go now?" Lu Renkui also came over to take a look at the words written on the blue screen and asked.
"Yes, we can go now." System WQBYRZM said while inputting data, "Host, get ready, we are about to head to the next world."
"Okay." Lu Renkui said, then closed his eyes and waited.
At this moment, Lu Renkui heard Mu Wanqing say, "Are you leaving?"
“I have to go,” Lu Renkui replied to Mu Wanqing. “I need to finish my mission and go home as soon as possible.”
“Well, well,” Mu Wanqing said after thinking for a moment, “then I wish you good luck.”
"Alright, I appreciate your kind words." Lu Renkui smiled. As the system activated its preparation, Lu Renkui heard Mu Wanqing's voice becoming increasingly ethereal.
Immediately following, the system WQBYRZM announced, "Mission target body reached, host, please open your eyes." Lu Renkui opened his eyes and saw the original owner's reflection in the glass window—a woman between 40 and 50 years old, with a tuft of white hair at her temples. He couldn't tell how her features were arranged; individually, they appeared quite calm, but together they conveyed a weariness and a dauntingly serious expression.
"Host, how are you? Adapting well?" Lu Renkui heard the system WQBYRZM calling her, and she quickly replied that she was fine. She then looked at the android across the glass window and received the message from the system WQBYRZM in her mind.
