"So, what should we do next?"
Qiong looked around, somewhat at a loss.
There's only one way left...
Hanxing frowned and asked Dan Heng, who was standing beside her:
" Dan Heng, could you help me guess what their purpose is in going to the Prison of Deep Seclusion?"
"Among the prisoners connected to the Borisin, one named Hoolay, who was previously Borisin leader, is currently in the Prison of Deep Seclusion."
Dan Heng recalled the clues in his mind and suddenly thought of this one.
"So, their purpose in coming here is to break them out of prison?"
The Firefly seemed to realize something and answered instinctively.
"Very likely."
Dan Heng said briefly:
"This Hoolay, previously captured by the Sword-Headed Jingliu, possesses powerful self-healing abilities and a sharp mind, posing a significant threat to the entire Xianzhou Alliance."
"Then, I will reveal the solution."
After listening to everyone present, Hanxing slowly spoke:
"We'll split into three groups: you two go find General Jing Yuan first, Firefly goes to find March 7th and the others, and I'll go to hold off Hoolay from the front."
"Wouldn't that be... a bit risky?"
Dan Heng asked warily.
"At this point, there's no other way."
As Hanxing spoke, her gaze fell upon Firefly:
What do you think?
"I... don't have any ability to quickly find people--"
Firefly hesitated for a moment, then Hanxing took out the firefly pendant and gently pulled the star-shaped necklace around Firefly's neck, then gently attached it to her.
"This contains a 24-hour Harmony Emanator Tuning, which is guaranteed to be invisible to the average person."
Hanxing smiled, then added:
"By the way, your Sam should be usable now."
"Hmm? Why?"
"I'm curious, "Firefly asked.
"You... surely you haven't forgotten what your Path was before?"
Hanxing said with a mischievous grin.
"Ah? Is... is that the reason?"
Firefly blushed with embarrassment.
What... are you talking about?
Qiong, standing to the side, asked in confusion:
"And... Firefly, your hair?"
"N-nothing..."
The two said in unison.
" Hanxing helped me tie this ponytail, what do you think?"
The Firefly's voice was filled with pride.
"It seems you two are getting closer and closer."
Dan Heng then interjected.
"In any case, let's proceed according to plan for now."
Hanxing finally answered.
Firefly reached out and grasped at the void, and with a surge of flames, the transformation device that had been absent for so long finally appeared in her hand:
"It's... a little strange."
Firefly sighed softly, and then the mecha appeared, flying straight into the air accompanied by Harmony audio signal.
"Then, let's set off."
Hanxing turned to look at Qiong and Dan Heng.
"Okay, hang in there, we'll be back."
Qiong nodded trustingly and turned to leave with Dan Heng.
"Then leave the rest to me."
Hanxing opened the spatial portal, and her figure disappeared into the turbulent currents...
"Well... it was relatively effortless, wasn't it?"
Emerging from the portal, Hanxing looked around. No one was there; it was the perfect time to disguise herself.
He took out the firefly pendant again, his black hair turning golden, and the purple border reappeared in Hanxing's eyes. Accompanied by the Tuning audio, he now appeared to others as no different from an ordinary patrolling Cloud Knights.
"The defenses here... seem impenetrable, but their combat strength is actually too low. If those imprisoned below are all enemies at the Hoolay level, these Cloud Knights won't be able to hold them off at all."
Hanxing pondered to himself as he walked deeper into the prison.
"Your Majesty..."
Hanxing heard a sound coming from afar and couldn't help but look up: a Foxian, a man in purple, and a woman were walking in the same direction as him. And the Cloud Knights they had just passed were carrying a Borisin's aura.
"How?"
The woman asked somewhat coldly.
"No, it's nothing, maybe it's just my imagination... Let's go."
Jiaoqiu said, and continued walking forward.
" The Borisin have infiltrated this place..."
Hanxing broke out in a cold sweat. From the disaster at Ambrosial Arbor to the current prison break crisis, the Xianzhou's defenses seemed to be riddled with holes.
"The forbidden area has been infiltrated by the enemy; I really don't know how they can sleep soundly."
Above the Starskiff Haven on the other side.
"Where are Miss March 7th and the others...?"
A green shooting star streaked across the sky, and the Firefly inside the mech scanned downwards continuously, its internal HUD quickly locking onto individuals before just as quickly releasing them.
"Who?!"
A Foxian turned his head warily, and the click of March 7th's camera quickly attracted the attention of several people who were plotting together.
"It's those three brats! I told you to clean up the mess immediately, but you wouldn't listen, you idiots!" a man dressed as Cloud Knights said angrily.
"Leave no survivors, take action!" Several Borisin pretending and quickly revealed their true forms.
"Over there!"
The mech's HUD quickly marked the three figures in blue, while the few Borisin were marked in red.
"Oh no, they're in danger!"
" Borisin?!"
March 7th was somewhat surprised, but considering Hanxing's earlier reminder, it seemed to make perfect sense.
"Adugusu! Die, you vile beast!"
Just Borisin uttered those harsh words, Sam instantly appeared in front of the three of them.
"Sam... Sam?"
Yanqing and Yunli were dumbfounded: Why were the Stellaron Hunters appearing in front of them? And it seemed they were there to protect them.
"Miss Firefly, what are you doing here?"
The mystery was revealed on March 7th: the person hidden under Sam's mask was none other than Firefly.
"Be careful, I'll handle the rest."
Having said that, he instantly drew his twin swords, and the green flames incinerated all the Borisin into ashes.
"So... Ms. Firefly, you're Sam? And... your hair is..."
Yanqing asked curiously.
"Yes, Qiong asked me to come find you. As for this ponytail, Hanxing helped me tie it."
As the Firefly turned around, a wave of heat swept over it, and the mecha vanished.
"The situation is rather serious. As you can see, it seems that quite a few Borisin have infiltrated the Xianzhou Alliance."
"This is a real problem."
March 7th said with some lingering fear:
"So many Borisin have practically infiltrated every corner of the entire Xianzhou!"
We guessed one of their motives: a prison break.
Firefly voiced the guesses of the others.
"A prison break? But... who are they going to take away?"
Yunli asked, still feeling a bit shaken.
"Initial assessment suggests it's Hoolay, the leader of the Bu Li."
"It's a short message," Firefly said briefly, while simultaneously sending Hanxing a message indicating that the mission was complete.
"Bu Li's leader... so it was him." Yanqing stroked his chin.
"I should have guessed it. We're in the lead-up to the Wardance right now. If he manages to escape, it's unimaginable how many people will be killed or wounded."
"That's why we have to stop him!" March 7th said firmly.
