Super Invincible Battleship
Chapter 879

Chapter 879: 360 Chapter 879: 360 It was Gu Xiaolan who had just launched an underground attack on the Thunder Controller. She accurately pinpointed the Thunder Controller's weakness, first feigning weakness with ordinary large caliber bullets to numb the Thunder Controller's vigilance. Then, she used a hidden mysterious bullet to grievously wound the Thunder Controller, showcasing Gu Xiaolan's enigmatic computational ability and marksmanship.

When Yan Fei discovered that it was Gu Xiaolan who had severely injured the Thunder Controller, he was utterly shocked. The Thunder Controller seemed invincible, yet he was still gravely injured by Gu Xiaolan and eventually forced to flee in panic. Gu Xiaolan seemed to have a magical ability; no matter who it was, even a God-Level Expert couldn't escape the attack of her bullets. Gu Xiaolan's body was only slightly stronger than the average person's; how did she manage to accomplish this?

Gu Xiaolan was Yan Fei's classmate in the Genius Class from China. Yan Fei and Lu Pingping were imposters, but Gu Xiaolan was a true genius. However, during their university days, Gu Xiaolan appeared very ordinary, not at all conspicuous, and she never revealed what her genius ability was, so Yan Fei didn't know whether her ability to hit her enemies with absolute certainty was due to her genius ability.

But now wasn't the time to ponder these questions. With the threat from the Thunder Controller gone, Yan Fei could take this opportunity to swiftly leave the area. After all, it was a terrifying place, not only inhabited by the fearsome Thunder Controller but also various bizarre and mysterious experts; it was a veritable forbidden zone for martial artists. Gu Xiaolan was unpredictable, and if she decided to shoot at the Drone, it might get hit by her for some strange reason.

Yan Fei didn't want to stay here any longer; he wanted to immediately rescue the hostages from Dream Island hidden beneath the sea surface, ensure their absolute safety, and then return to Dream Island. Gu Xiaolan, standing on the ground, watched the Drone accelerating away into the sky. A curious glint passed through her eyes as she raised her gun to aim at the Drone, but she didn't fire at it.

Zhuge Liuyun, standing beside her, felt a chill as he gazed at the suspended volcanic ash and the harsh natural environment around them. He hunched his shoulders and said, “Xiaolan, what's our next move? Are we really going to rescue the hostages of Dream Island?”

Putting down her gun, Gu Xiaolan said, “The appearance of the Destroyer's Mysterious aircraft means the hostages have been rescued by the Destroyer. Our purpose here was not only to save the hostages of Dream Island but also to help the Destroyer safely leave this place. Now that the hostages have been rescued and the Destroyer has safely departed, we have no business left here. Let's leave; I feel unease lingering here, and it would be better to leave sooner rather than later.”

Zhuge Liuyun, once a genius himself, had fallen to the level of an ordinary person and couldn't sense any abnormalities here. However, he absolutely trusted Gu Xiaolan's ability. If Gu Xiaolan said there was danger, then there might be real danger here. It was best to leave first. Still, he couldn't help feeling puzzled and said, “But this is the African continent, the most backward and ignorant place in the world, with no significant historical events. How could it make even you feel uncomfortable?”

“I'm not clear about the specifics,” Gu Xiaolan responded, “but my instincts are never wrong. Besides, the African continent is not as backward as you imagine. Remember, humans' ancestors set out from Africa to the rest of the world tens of thousands of years ago; it's plausible there are some hidden secrets here.”

Zhuge Liuyun agreed, “The organization has deemed this area dangerous and prohibited members from getting close; there seems to be good reason for that. If it weren't for assisting Yan Fei and helping the Destroyer leave, we wouldn't have come here. I just wonder why the state values Yan Fei so much to deploy us for his aid. Has he really become that important to the country?”

Gu Xiaolan didn't answer the question, instead saying, “Alright, Liuyun, let's not dwell on the nation's decisions. Our task is done; let's leave this place immediately.”

“Okay then!” said Zhuge Liuyun.

With that, Gu Xiaolan and Zhuge Liuyun boarded a car at the base of the mountain and started to speed away from this eerie place…

Beneath the pitch-black sea surface, nestled within the 50-meter deep seabed silt, the Spider Platform lit up with soft lights. However, these soft lights were blocked by the glass cover of the Spider Platform and did not penetrate outside, so nothing on the surface indicated the existence of a hidden Spider Platform beneath the sea.

The hostages from Dream Island, staring into the pitch-black sea depths, felt a sense of panic engulf them. After the Mechanical Monkey and the headless knight left, they hadn't expected to be transported to the seabed by the Spider Platform. Although the glass cover of the Spider Platform looked like it was about to crack, it didn't completely break, and it remained sealed; naturally, no seawater could leak in. Moreover, there was air inside the Spider Platform, enough for them to breathe normally, which lessened their despair somewhat.

One person, worried, said, “We're now under the sea surface. What if this Steel Spider suddenly breaks down and can't be opened, what will we do inside?”
