"And I already know where her parents work. Just one hour."
"...All right." Durandal ultimately nodded.
She could spare an hour.
Besides, she found it hard to refuse Chen Luo's request, as well as that little girl's plea.
"Then let's go. ME Company—that little girl's parents work there." Chen Luo nodded and took the lead out.
"ME Company isn't far from downtown. We'll get there soon enough."
"ME Company..." Durandal paused at the name.
As the captain of the Immortal Blades, she was naturally no stranger to that name. It was Anti-Entropy territory.
But since she had agreed, she could not go back on her word. Besides, Durandal had confidence in her own strength.

"My armor is badly damaged. Flying would be difficult." Durandal had already checked her armor.
"Then what do we do..." Chen Luo frowned in distress.
"You carry me." As she spoke, Durandal somehow pulled out a thin rope.
"Hey, wait, Captain. What are you doing?" Chen Luo instinctively backed away as Durandal approached him with the rope.
"To keep you from escaping again with some unknown method, we'll be tied together until we leave Changkong City. This is Destiny's latest technology.

"So, where do you want it tied?" Durandal asked, holding the rope as she approached Chen Luo.
"Can we not tie it?"
"What do you think?" Durandal lightly scratched the floor with the lance in her right hand.
"Fine." Chen Luo
