Chapter 407 was rejected.
"No, no need. Actually, I wanted to help, is that alright?"
Lin Xiyue's voice was somewhat urgent. She was trying her best to express her thoughts to Li Si, but because she wasn't very familiar with Li Si, she felt a little awkward and embarrassed when she spoke.
"Well... forgive my bluntness, Miss Lin, but in the current situation, you can't even see the boss's fighting trajectory, let alone help him."
After hearing Lin Xiyue's words, Li Si thought for a moment and then spoke frankly to her.
Li Si's words were practically a direct statement: "Stop causing trouble. What can you do in the state you are in?"
Lin Xiyue's expression changed slightly, and she looked somewhat embarrassed.
She clearly hadn't expected Li Si to reject her so directly.
"Yes, that's right. I have two cards here, or rather, abilities. One can ignore everything and instantly immobilize someone for at least three seconds, while the other can unleash a powerful attack. So..."
However, Lin Xiyue was not discouraged and continued to explain.
Lin Xiyue paused for a moment, as if she was hesitating whether to express all her thoughts.
However, she ultimately decided to trust Melos, since he had entrusted her to Li Si, which meant that Li Si should represent safety.
"So, you think these two abilities might help the boss get rid of Fei Bo."
Li Si listened quietly to Lin Xiyue's words, and when he heard what Lin Xiyue hadn't finished saying, he immediately guessed what she was thinking.
Yes. Is that alright?
Lin Xiyue nodded slightly, her gaze falling on Li Si, her face full of sincerity and earnestness.
“Well…theoretically speaking, it’s feasible. Not only that, I can even contact the boss discreetly and ask him to help us accomplish this.”
After a moment's thought, Li Si replied.
Upon hearing Li Si's words, Lin Xiyue's eyes lit up as if she had seen a glimmer of hope.
"Then does that mean I'll be able to..."
She pressed for an answer.
"No, you can't!"
However, before Lin Xiyue could finish speaking, Li Si revealed a sly smile and interrupted her unhurriedly.
"Huh?! Why?!"
Lin Xiyue's expression instantly changed from anticipation to astonishment. Her eyes widened, her face filled with disbelief, and she blurted out...
She looked towards Meros again, seeing the ground that was becoming increasingly horribly mangled, and really wanted to help get rid of Phib.
“First of all, my orders were very clear: ensure your safety. And the idea you just mentioned is putting yourself in extreme danger, which is absolutely unacceptable.”
Li Si smiled, but spoke to Lin Xiyue with unusual firmness.
"Secondly, when we aliens fight alone, we have an extremely important principle: unless Fei Bo does something irreversible, we must never interfere. This is not only the leader's requirement, but also a principle we have always followed."
He paused briefly before continuing.
Li Si's smile remained kind and approachable, but every word he spoke conveyed an unquestionable attitude.
"But if Philip really did those irreversible things you said he did, wouldn't it be too late for us to take preventative measures then?"
Lin Xiyue was clearly not satisfied with this explanation, and she pressed for further details.
Faced with Lin Xiyue's questioning, Li Si's lips curled up slightly, revealing a sly smile.
“Look at Earl over there, he’s made specifically for this kind of situation.”
He raised an eyebrow at Lin Xiyue and answered slowly.
"Earl?!"
When Lin Xiyue heard the name, she was clearly surprised, and the image of Earl immediately came to mind.
However, when she looked around, she found no trace of Earl.
"Oh right, where is he?"
Lin Xiyue muttered to herself, her brows furrowing slightly, a sense of doubt rising in her heart.
She remembered that she hadn't seen Earl since she came out, but so many things had just happened that she hadn't thought of him for a moment.
"I thought he went to help, so if he didn't go to help, where is he?"
Lin Xiyue's voice revealed a hint of curiosity as she searched her surroundings, hoping to find Earl's figure.
Just then, Li Si spoke, which caught Lin Xiyue's attention.
She turned to look at Li Si, and saw that the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, revealing a faint smile.
"Hehe, it's right under your feet."
Li Si's tone was somewhat teasing. He pointed to his feet, gesturing for Lin Xiyue to look in that direction.
Following Li Si's directions, Lin Xiyue realized that she was standing on the back of a large animal. However, because it was so big, she did not notice the problem at all.
"After all, given the boss's destructive power, there's simply no place to step, so this is the only way we can manage."
Li Si's words rang in Lin Xiyue's ears, and she suddenly realized what was going on.
It turns out that this large animal was actually Earl transformed.
Because it flew so smoothly, Lin Xiyue was completely unaware that she was standing on its back, and didn't even feel a gust of wind.
"Earl?"
Lin Xiyue carefully squatted down, reached out and gently touched the ground beneath her feet, while softly calling Earl's name.
Suddenly, a loud "Awooo!" rang out, as if Earl was responding to Lin Xiyue.
Wow! w(?Д?)w
The sudden shout startled Lin Xiyue, who couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
After she came to her senses, she began to carefully examine the place where she was standing.
She discovered that this appeared to be a relatively large flat surface, surrounded by a barrier with a faint red glow at the bottom, blocking the surrounding wind.
Because the faint red light was only at the bottom, Lin Xiyue did not initially notice the existence of this barrier.
Upon closer inspection, the surface has a smooth texture with a slight reddish tint, making it difficult to discern its material composition.
However, when Lin Xiyue touched it, she could clearly feel that it was unusually hard and also had a slightly warm feeling.
"here it is?"
Although Lin Xiyue already had a general idea in her mind, she still subconsciously asked Li Si.
"Yes, this is Earl's back. This flat area was specially created by him using energy. After all, although his body surface looks furry, those furs are actually his weapons. Humans will be injured if they come into contact with them, so this is the only way."
Seeing this, Li Si didn't try to hide anything and answered directly.
