After Genderswap Reincarnation, I Raised the Strongest Player - CH 19

I’m Not This Kind Of Person (Hot Blooded)!

This answer relieved Ling Mo’s nervousness.

If it’s not shot…

“Get ready.”

Xia Xinyan’s suppressed voice sounded next to his ear, as if she was enduring something.

“They might come over.”

As she spoke, she rolled over from Ling Mo’s body, laying beside him and raised her rifle, aiming at the direction behind him.

Ling Mo also hurriedly reached for the rifle on the side, and aimed at the same way.

However, before the group of enemies came over, a mortar shell suddenly landed between the two sides, making a deafening explosion and making a large amount of dust and smoke that blocked everyone’s sight.

Afterwards, several more mortar shells landed nearby and the sound of explosions followed one after another, directly turning the area into a place of death.

Xia Xinyan hurriedly said.

“Go, now!”

Ling Mo got up in response, turned around and reached out to pull her up, but his eyes noticed a hole in her pants that seemed to be torn by a bullet on her left leg.

“You were hit?!”

He was startled.

Was her cry of pain just now because she was shot?!

Then why did she lie to him that she just hit her hand?

Is it to reassure him?

“Don’t worry about me.”

Xia Xinyan was still lying on the ground, as if she had given up struggling.

“Go first, i’ll cover you.”

It’s not that she doesn’t want to struggle, it’s just that she can’t move.

Although the game does not have the effect of broken limbs, there are still feedbacks after being shot, such as fractures.

She didn’t know how many times she was shot, but one bullet shouldn’t directly fracture her leg—— the most coincidental thing is that several bullets hit the same location, so it can be said that she is very unlucky.

But her goal isn’t to clear the level herself anyway, it will be a matter of time before she gets a supernatural ability. Now the main objective of the first dungeon is to let Ling Mo clear the stage, and she herself is secondary.

It’s a pity that Ling Mo’s thoughts are not in line with hers.

“I’ll carry you!”

He said he wanted to protect her, how could he abandon her?!

Xia Xinyan hardly had time to resist. He dropped the rifle, pulled her up and hugged her, then turned around and rushed towards the beach.

A mortar shell landed where they were just a few seconds later, creating a big crater, and the shock wave made Ling Mo who had run about ten meters away almost fall down.

It also made him inevitably get injured.

This is the first time he has experienced what 70% pain is.

But even though his back couldn’t help but feel the piercing pain, he still resisted and rushed to the evacuation boat parked by the beach.

The beach is very wide, and the evacuation boat is also a large armed ship, so it can only stop by the sea a certain distance from the shore. This distance does not seem to be long at ordinary times, but at this moment it has become a road of death.

Xia Xinyan put her arms around his neck and looked behind, the woods by the beach had been basically flattened by mortar shells. In the smoke one could still see the silhouette of the Protection Association rushing in the distance.

Looking at it like this, they probably won’t be able to get on the boat.

After thinking for a few seconds, Xia Xinyan patted Ling Mo’s shoulder.

“Let me go, you can get on the boat by yourself, you won’t have time to run to the boat with me.”

“We have time!”

Ling Mo hugged her even tighter.

“Don’t think about it, i can’t leave you here alone!”

Xia Xinyan wanted to curse.

Why does this guy always like to show off?

Does he think this is romantic? Is it fun for two people to die together and get some poor income from the dungeon?

Although she couldn’t help complaining in her mind, she still persuaded calmly on the surface.

“This is just a game, there is no need to be so serious, and it’s not really dying. You escape first, and take me with you next time.”

“It’s because it’s a game that i can’t give up!”

Ling Mo gritted his teeth and sped up.

“How much of a waste is a person who can abandon a girl while playing a game? I’m not that kind of person!”

“…”

“Don’t be afraid! I will definitely take you on board!”

Ling Mo had already made up his mind.

“Even if we die, we will die together!”

Xia Xinyan stopped trying to persuade him.

She understands her own temperament, and when she finds a reason to do something no one can pull her back… No, she is better now, at least she can listen to some persuasion, but at this point in time Ling Mo is really stubborn1.

And it was too late for her to persuade him.

At this moment, people from the IPA have come to the beach. The two of them are still nearly fifty meters away from the evacuation ship, and there is still a segment of water, which is more likely to hinder their progress. There are no bunkers or obstacles on the beach, the two are completely living targets.

I guess we won’t make it through.

Forget it…it won’t be too late to wait for the next game.

In the turbulence, Xia Xinyan slowly closed her eyes, waiting for the imminent pain of death.

However——

“Hey! Run! I’ll cover you!”

Murong Yue’s voice suddenly came from the front.2

Looking up, two large-caliber machine guns suddenly rose from the rear of the armed ship, aimed at the Protection Association rushing behind them, and began to shoot indiscriminately.

The crazy firepower blocked the IPAs charge almost instantly, and Murong Yue appeared at the hatch of the ship and waved at them desperately.

“Come on! Don’t just stand still!”

Ling Mo stayed still for a second, then gritted his teeth and rushed towards the ship with all his strength.

When they were about to reach the side of the ship, Murong Yue directly jumped off to help them, until the three of them boarded the ship smoothly and the system prompt appeared directly in front of everyone——

《Mission completed, returning to the lobby soon》

Xia Xinyan said almost immediately.

“The dungeon is finished, now you can leave it directly, i’ll go  first.”

After speaking, she turned into white light and disappeared off the deck.

Ling Mo was taken aback for a moment, but he quickly gathered his composure, opening the game menu and choosing to exit the dungeon.

After he also disappeared, only Murong Yue was left on the deck. The ship sailed away from the island after the three of them boarded. Seeing the large group of girls in pink clothes who stopped attacking on the beach not far away, she couldn’t help muttering.

“Why are you leaving in such a hurry… This game is quite interesting.”

But Ling Mo, who also cleared the dungeon, didn’t think so.

After leaving the stage, they returned to each player’s unique private space. Due to the linkage between Ling Mo and Xia Xinyan’s game cabin, Ling Mo also has the authority to enter Xia Xinyan private space without permission.

When he came over, she saw her standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling mirror in the living room of the villa, staring blankly at her own reflection.

Seeing Ling Mo behind her in the mirror, she turned around with an inexplicable expression on her face.

“Um… did it… hurt?”

He had been splashed by mortar fragments a while back, even if he felt only 70% of the pain he almost fell to the ground in agony—— for an ordinary person who has never experienced this kind of pain this is definitely not a wonderful thing to feel.

But after exiting the dungeon the pain disappeared, and he didn’t care much about it.

He was just thinking… Xia Xinyan was shot directly in the leg with a rifle just now, how painful was that?

Even he, a man, almost couldn’t hold back a tear, maybe she almost cried just now?

Maybe because she didn’t want to lose face in front of him, so she suppressed it and pretended it was okay?

Why bother… It’s just a game…

——Looking at his expression, Xia Xinyan guessed what he was thinking.

I have to say that the current Ling Mo really doesn’t know how to hide his thoughts.

Especially when facing her future version of herself, it is almost equivalent to writing her thoughts on her face.

But…

“It hurts.”

Xia Xinyan still answered.

“It hurts.”
