for Advance Chapter
The three of us sat in a circle in the middle of the lawn, which was surrounded by fog and still carried an ambiguous scent.
The three of us sat on the lawn surrounded by thick fog and still lingering with an ambiguous scent, March 7th working hard to cover the "crime scene" just now with her body, her cheeks red like the burning clouds in the sky.
Rappa, however, seemed completely immersed in her own world, not noticing any anomaly.
She sat cross-legged, her hands quickly forming a seal that looked very powerful (but useless) in front of her chest, and then looked at us with a serious expression, starting to speak in a tone that was deliberately lowered and appeared mysterious:
"Heh heh... The gears of fate have begun to turn, leading us to this place; it is by no means an accident! Master Bat Ninja! Master Glass Ninja!"
"Listen well! This is top-secret intelligence!" Rappa lowered her voice, her eyes sharp as a hawk, "Not long ago, my ally, that 'Silver Spear Asura' (it really was Boothill!) who carries out justice and has achieved great deeds, intercepted an IPC 'Black Ship' lurking in the shadows of the sea of stars with the momentum of thunder! On the ship, it was actually loaded with eerie equipment used for forbidden experiments!"
She paused, her tone even more grave: "According to the secret text that the master risked his life to obtain, the final destination of this batch of forbidden devices points directly to this courtyard shrouded in mist and exuding an ominous aura! And the recipient... is actually the organization where Dr. Primitive is, the 'Genius Society'!"
Hearing this, my heart "thumped" hard!
Good guy!
When I was on a video call with Ruan Mei a few days ago, she complained to me that a batch of custom precision instruments lost its logistics information during transport and couldn't be contacted no matter what. So... so it was hijacked halfway by Boothill?!
This guy really has a deep hatred for the company... I was once again speechless in my heart.
Rappa didn't pay any attention to my inner activities, and continued to say with that tone full of sense of mission: "Do you two know, I, Dazzling Ninja Rappa, have only one life wish while walking between the stars, which is to cut off and kill all the twisted and crazy party members under that 'Dr. Primitive'! Among them, it includes the 'Osaru, the Evil Ninja' who is like a bone-sticking maggot and has secret whereabouts! Silver Spear Asura master inferred that this place is very likely the 'Demon Cave' where the Evil Ninja colluded with the Genius Society to perform some heaven-defying experiments! Therefore, the master entrusted this top-secret commission to me, for me to come here first to investigate this den of sin! He himself continues to pursue the IPC's trail."
As she spoke, she pointed abruptly at the villa behind her, her eyes burning with the flames of justice: "After my 'Shadow Escape Secret Technique' investigation for several consecutive days without sleep or food, I have understood the truth of this place! This is by no means a residence for ordinary people, but an 'Evil Party Fortress' with tight defenses and many traps! Those cold 'steel puppets' (housekeeping AI and Herta puppets) are transporting suspicious supplies day and night! It is even more outrageous!"
Her voice suddenly rose, carrying incomparable indignation: "Whenever night falls and all is silent, my 'Wind-Listening Secret Technique' can capture bursts of miserable, heartbreaking moans from young girls coming from the depths of the fortress! That sound is miserable and desperate; those who hear it feel sad, and those who hear it shed tears! It must be the Evil Ninja performing inhumane human alchemy!"
(The moans of young girls... it couldn't be me and Himeko and the others at night...) My mouth twitched wildly again.
Rappa didn't notice my expression at all, continuing to say excitedly: "Even! Even just now! When I performed the 'Mist-Hidden Technique' to sneak near this place, I clearly captured it! Not far behind this grass, there came rapid panting from a young girl being cruelly tortured, which could not be suppressed! Although her voice seemed to be blocked by something, intermittent, but that pain and despair absolutely couldn't deceive these 'Mind's Eyes' of mine that see through the darkness! The hateful Evil Ninja! Actually dared to commit such an atrocity in broad daylight!"
What on earth is all this?! I was overwhelmed by Rappa's extremely absurd inference full of secondary-school-level atmosphere, and for a moment, I was speechless.
The young girl that Rappa said was "just tortured, mouth blocked, making painful panting" in her mouth... isn't that the one beside you?! I complained frantically in my heart.
March 7th, who is usually addicted to comics and games and has an overflowing sense of justice, was actually completely ignited and entered the setting by Rappa's inflammatory, secondary-school-level speech!
She abruptly raised her head, her little face flushed red, and her eyes were filled with anger and sympathy: "What?! The Evil Ninja is actually so frantic! Those girls are too pitiful! Rappa! We must rescue them from the devil's claws!"
(Rescuing yourself?)
"Woo woo woo... As expected of Master Glass Ninja! Your heart is indeed as pure as crystal, burning with the flames of justice!" Rappa held March 7th's hand with emotion, "I knew it, you are by no means an ordinary person!"
She stood up abruptly, looking around at the surrounding thick fog, her eyes becoming extremely hot: "Look! This fog covering the world is not an obstacle, but the best cover given to us, the righteous army, by heaven! This is a god-given opportunity! It is the best moment for us to launch a surprise attack, destroy the demon cave, and save the common people! With Master Bat Ninja's peerless 'Smashing Pole', Master Glass Ninja's indestructible 'Ice Crystal Guardian', plus my ally Silver Spear Asura master as 'Shadow Support', this battle! We will win!"
As she said this, she was filled with high aspirations, and unexpectedly took out a signal flare that shone with strange light and looked very unusual from somewhere, held it high, and was about to pull the fuse: "This is the 'Breaking Dawn Wolf Smoke' to summon righteous people of the world to discuss the demon together! When this flame rises into the sky—"
"Stop, stop, stop!" As soon as I saw her about to "use the big move," I was so scared that I pounced and held down the hand she was preparing to pull the string with, "Ninja Rappa! Calm down! Calm down! We know nothing about the number of enemies, their strength, and their defensive layout inside. It's too reckless to launch a general attack now! As an excellent ninja, shouldn't we first conduct infiltration reconnaissance, find out the enemy's bottom line, and then formulate a foolproof strategy?"
"Hmm...?" Rappa was pressed down by me, her rising enthusiasm seemed to have a bucket of cold water poured on it. She tilted her head and thought about it, then nodded suddenly as if realized, "Uh... Master Bat Ninja is right! It was Rappa who was washed away by anger! Yes! Only by knowing the enemy and yourself can you win every battle! A true ninja should first sneak into the enemy camp like a ghost, spy on the military situation, and listen to the thunder in silence!"
Only then did she solemnly put away the dangerous-looking signal flare, and then looked at March 7th and me with burning eyes, and waved her hand: "Okay! Then, the three of us will now form the 'Shadow-Piercing Infiltration Squad'! Target—inside the enemy fortress! Let's go! Go reveal the truth of the evil hidden behind the mist!"
Just like that, I pulled up March 7th, who had been infected by Rappa's secondary-school-level spirit, and with this Rappa who was completely immersed in her ninja setting, passed through the thick morning fog, and walked toward the main villa.
