Myrtle casually selected a spot that appeared to be deserted from her Scanning Vision.

A faint, almost imperceptible smile crept onto Su Rui's lips, which he quickly concealed.

Moreover, Su Rui kindly inquired:

"Do I need to remind you again? Are there any other additional attributes associated with the location you chose?"

Su Rui's tone was casual, as if they were having a normal chat, so Myrtle didn't become wary and simply waved her hand:

"No need. If there's anything you don't know, you can treat it as a surprise."

As she spoke, Myrtle reached out and picked up the juice in front of her, drinking it all in one gulp. Then she looked at Su Rui and tried to reach out to help Su Rui up.

"Wait, don't pull me up too hard. I've eaten too much, I might throw up."

As Su Rui spoke, she reached out and grabbed Myrtle's wrist, then slowly stood up, pressing down on the chair.

"I just finished eating and don't want to move around too much, how about we walk a short distance like this?"

Myrtle spoke, she moved closer to Su Rui, put her arm around Su Rui's arm, and began to stroll with Su Rui on the street leading to the other side of the city.

Pozëmka, having eaten less, moved nimbly from a high vantage point, following at a distance.

Volume 8, Chapter 515: Pozëmka Biting Her Handkerchief

Myrtle thought she should spend some quality time with Su Rui on the nearly deserted streets, using this opportunity to bring them closer during this ambiguous period.

At least at the beginning, Myrtle's progress was going well. Su Rui walked with her on the empty streets. Now, because of the summer festival, the Durin were mostly gathered around the large pool, and there were hardly any people on the streets.

Su Rui and Myrtle strolled around the streets a few times, only occasionally encountering one or two Durin who were swaying back and forth with wine glasses in their hands, seemingly either going home to get something or lost.

However, this was exactly what Su Rui and Myrtle wanted.

"It feels really nice to shop here~ It's so quiet, like we're the only people in the world."

Su Rui nodded. Compared to the lively celebration at the large pool on the other side, this place was indeed very quiet, which subconsciously calmed people down.

Myrtle reached out and grasped Su Rui's wrist, and Su Rui also grasped Myrtle's wrist, pulling her into his arms, feeling the girl's soft body, and gently sniffing her hair.

"Is it an orange-scented shampoo?"

"Yeah... Su Rui, this is still a public place."

Myrtle nestled shyly in Su Rui 'Su Rui arms, but didn't break free. Her cheeks flushed slightly, and she glanced at Su Rui with a slightly embarrassed look in her eyes.

"Although it's a public place, there's no one here, so it's not much different from a private place, right?"

No, that's not true. In fact, Pozëmka was hiding not far away, watching the interaction between Su Rui Su Rui Myrtle Myrtle, and could even hear their conversation.

Damn it, if Hongxue weren't worried that throwing stones now might reveal her location and that she had been spying earlier, she would have secretly taken revenge on Su Rui Pozëmka.

He was so happy holding her in his arms before, but now he's suddenly becoming affectionate with Myrtle without any hesitation.

Pozëmka angrily took out a handkerchief from her pocket, biting it as if it were Su Rui herself, and wanted to tear it to shreds.

Suddenly, Pozëmka's ears twitched, and she turned her head to look in the direction Su Rui and Myrtle were about to head. A smug smile crept onto her lips as she silently watched Su Rui and Myrtle.

However, despite her gloating, Pozëmka still took out her heavy crossbow from behind her back and aimed it at the position in front of Su Rui and Myrtle.

Su Rui had already seen what was happening with her Scanning Vision, and, pulling Myrtle, deliberately slowed her pace.

However, this speed wasn't slow at all. Soon, Myrtle began to hear some commotion in the street ahead, which sounded like...

"Su Rui ~ I think I heard fighting up ahead. Could it be another one of one of the designers' plans?"

Myrtle turned her head and looked at Su Rui with a puzzled expression, asking with some concern.

"Hmm, but we don't need to get involved this time."

Su Rui reached out and pulled Myrtle along, leading her to the edge of the street. "Someone's already here to handle this. All we have to do is stay out of their sight, watch the show, and not get caught."

"Is it the Eunectes and Gavial?" Myrtle immediately thought of the Eunectes after hearing Su Rui's words.

Su Rui nodded. "That's right."

Just as Su Rui finished speaking, a huge sound exploded in Su Rui and Myrtle's ears.

A massive mech crashed through a roller shutter door and onto the street, its speakers blasting loud music as it swung its Chainsaw Sword, slicing every drone that came its way into tiny fragments.

The drones themselves don't have much combat capability, but they use stun guns. Although they seem to be the kind of stun guns used only to temporarily incapacitate people, if there are enough of them, it seems that they can still be effective against the mech.

Myrtle and Su Rui hid behind a shelf on the edge of the street, watching the Eunectes drive the Big Ugly and swing its Chainsaw Sword like it was swatting flies with an electric mosquito swatter.

"That's Eunectes, Su Rui. Didn't you say there was no one here?" Myrtle whispered in Su Rui Su Rui's ear as she lay on his back.

"I can't predict everything that will happen. The Scanning Vision you're seeing is in real time, and there really weren't many people here at the time."

Su Rui shrugged and looked at the Eunectes not far away, which was destroying drones with Gavial. They seemed to be having a great time.

However, while the Eunectes and Gavial were wreaking havoc, a girl Durin, holding a data tablet, was hopping mad in dissatisfaction nearby:

"What are you doing? I'm doing this to save the city! The Originium is spreading; I'm going to stun everyone and then send them out!"

But the Eunectes and Gavial remained unmoved.

"We were hired by the city to stop you. The city doesn't need your help. There will be an evacuation plan later, not now."

"By the time those slowpokes make their decision, the Originium might already be surrounding our city! You all need to stop right now!"

The young girl from Durin jumped up and down, trying to punch the Eunectes's mech, but it was no use. The Eunectes simply pushed her aside with its mech and continued clearing the drones.

"Now you're making things worse, designer, stop causing trouble."

After dealing with the group, Gavial reached out and grabbed the girl from Durin by the back of her collar, lifting her up like a kitten.

"I know you're controlling those drones with the terminal. Make them stop right now!"

While speaking, Gavial also swung his Chainsaw Axe, smashing the drones that approached him.

But the Durin girl wasn't afraid of the Chainsaw Axe in her hand at all; instead, she stood with her hands on her hips, glaring menacingly at Gavial.

"So what? I'm not stopping. I'm getting all the other production lines up and running. Let's get started now!"

As she spoke, the girl from Durin tapped the data tablet a few times, and Gavial quickly snatched the tablet from her hand.

But the girl from Durin, standing to the side, wore a smug smile.

"Hmph~ I've already started all the production lines! You can't shut them down!"

Gavial tapped the data panel in frustration, but to no avail. Somewhat annoyed, she threw the panel aside, intending to scare the Durin girl, but the girl wasn't afraid of her axe.

Volume 8, Chapter 516: Hidden Camera

"I never expected to see something like this here. Back on Rhodes Island, many patients and injured operators were afraid of Gavial."

Seeing Gavial's frustrated and Durin expression, Myrtle couldn't help but smirk and chuckle.

"After all, they're not afraid of her axe or her strength."

Su Rui shrugged, then reached out and pulled Myrtle back. "Alright, stop staring so intently, or we'll all be discovered."

"Uh-huh."

Myrtle nodded, glanced around, and suddenly her eyes lit up. She then pointed to a high place:

"Su Rui, look! That spot has a great view. We can keep spying from there!"

In fact, the location Myrtle was pointing to was where Pozëmka was. When she pointed to that spot, Pozëmka realized something was wrong and began to prepare to move.

Upon noticing this, Su Rui couldn't help but smile happily, "Great, the view from there is excellent, and it's not easy to be spotted."

With Su Rui and Myrtle moving to a higher position, Pozëmka also found a better spot to peek, where she could see Myrtle and Su Rui, as well as the Eunectes and Gavial.

The Eunectes and their companions were caught in a fierce battle.

"There are so many drones! Where are her production lines located?"

"We can only search along the direction they came from, bit by bit. If Su Rui were here, we could find the production lines directly and then destroy these drones one by one."

"Stop thinking about your Su Rui, hurry up and help. I don't know about other places, but first of all, there's definitely a production line in front of us!"

Gavial charged out, brandishing his Chainsaw Axe.

Myrtle and Su Rui watched the movie-like fight scene from a secluded corner, Su Rui drinks and snacks.

However, as she ate, Myrtle's attention drifted away from the food in her hands.

She started to get closer to Su Rui, even though she and Su Rui never really maintained social distance to begin with.

"Myrtle, we're still watching a movie!"

Su Rui put her drink aside, almost spilling it because of Myrtle's earlier movement.

"It won't interfere with our movie viewing; we can even grab a drink while we're at it."

As Myrtle spoke, she silenced Su Rui's lips with a kiss and pressed Su Rui down onto the cold ground.

This made Pozëmka, who was hiding on a high place, grit her teeth. Didn't these two have any sense of the occasion?

Across the street, a super exciting battle between mechs, Chainsaw Axe, and drones was unfolding, and Su Rui and Myrtle actually had the mind to hug and kiss each other!

What's even more infuriating is that she can only watch from here, which makes Pozëmka so angry that she takes out her handkerchief again and bites it.

Meanwhile, with the background noise of the Eunectes and Gavial constantly hacking at the drones not far away, Su Rui and Myrtle gradually became engrossed in each other, going from hugging and kissing each other to climbing the mountain together.

At this moment, the Eunectes and her team had already cleared out one production line. The designer, who was stomping her feet in anger, had been grabbed and taken away by the other staff. Now, all that remained was for the Eunectes and her team to dispose of all the production lines.

Even after being captured, the young designer refused to say anything, leaving the Eunectes and Gavial to slowly dispose of the drones.

This gave Su Rui and Myrtle plenty of time to be affectionate, and under the cover of background noise, they engaged in an increasingly intense duo game.

Myrtle suddenly exclaimed, "Wait a minute, Su Rui, don't pick me up! We might get caught!"

"What's there to be afraid of? Don't worry, I've been watching over there the whole time, we definitely won't be discovered."

As Su Rui spoke, he picked up Myrtle and Myrtle climbed the mountain together, watching the Eunectes and Gavial hacking at the drone.

Watching the intimate interaction between Su Rui and Myrtle from a higher vantage point, Pozëmka, though angry, couldn't help but take out her phone from her pocket, wanting to record the scene before her.

For some reason, Pozëmka felt these images were very precious, so she thought she could enjoy the footage she had recorded today later.

Gavial suddenly cheered, "Great! There aren't many production lines left!"

Gavial's voice made Myrtle was in Su Rui, tremble slightly. Fearing being discovered, she became nervous and instinctively hugged Su Rui tighter.

"Su Rui, can I turn around? I don't want to look anymore~ It's a little scary, I don't want to make eye contact with the Eunectes ~"

Myrtle begged Su Rui for mercy, but considering that Pozëmka was still filming behind them, Su Rui only curled the corner of his mouth and did not do as Myrtle asked. Instead, he lowered his head and whispered in her ear:

"Don't worry, everything will be alright. I promise you, I'll do you a favor later, okay?"

Myrtle's eyelashes trembled, and she leaned back, her cheek pressed against Su Rui's. Her voice was panicked, yet she didn't forget to try and secure more benefits for herself:

"If we are discovered, I have three conditions."

"Okay, no problem, I agree."

Su Rui nodded, and Pozëmka, who was high up behind her, also heard all of this conversation. She couldn't help but twitch her ears.

Since Su Rui could offer Myrtle one condition, or even three, he should be able to treat himself the same way.

As the duo match between Su Rui and Myrtle intensified, the game reached its climax. Of course, it wasn't just the contest between Su Rui and Myrtle; the progress of the attack production line by Eunectes and Gavial in the distance had also reached its final stage.

The Eunectes and Gavial are now attacking the last production line guarded by drones.

"Su Rui, be careful! Can we get out of the way? I have a feeling we might fall!"

As Myrtle instinctively reached out and wrapped her arms around Su Rui's neck.

"Okay, I understand. Let's step back a little."

Following Myrtle's instructions, Su Rui took a few steps back, and then, seeing the Eunectes and Gavial hacking away at the last production line, they hid behind the concrete fence so the Eunectes and Gavial couldn't see them.

A moment later, Myrtle, having drunk her fill of warm milk, still refused to get up, nestled in Su Rui's arms and pleaded:

"Just show me the Scanning Vision, okay?"

"Sure, no problem." Su Rui glanced in the direction Pozëmka had already slipped away and nodded.

Su Rui and Myrtle hid behind the concrete fence, feeling warm and safe. Su Rui then activated her Scanning Vision.
