Tanshao stood at a high place, his face tense, eyes closed tightly. His whole body seemed to blend into the surrounding air, completely immersed in his abilities. His mental power wove through the sky over Rado City like fine threads. His sensitivity was extremely sharp, every small movement, every faint cry, was within his perception.
At this moment, he sensed that Mud and Chuchan were still in the central square, with the presence of a stranger nearby, but that person's existence did not seem to cause Tanshao much concern. However, the situation on Bank Street made his heart tighten. Vivian was engaged in a fierce battle with Magma's squad. Through his abilities, Tanshao could clearly sense Vivian's strength, with three squad members already fallen under her toxic mist, unable to move.
This makes Tanshao's heart race, although he had long anticipated that Vivian would not be easily defeated, the reality seems far more severe than he had imagined. Tanshao knows that the outcome of this battle will have a significant impact on the power structure of Rado City. His fingers tremble slightly, not only because of nervousness, but also because of the uncertainty about the future.
In this post- wasteland, every battle could be a turning point in fate, and Tanshao, as a member of The Curse of the Wild, must constantly be prepared to face such turning points. He takes a deep breath, trying to calm his emotions, but the fire in his heart only burns stronger. He knows that this storm is just beginning.
Rein's voice suddenly came from the corner where Tanshao was nestled, heavy and full of doubt, "Hey! Why hasn't Vivian come back yet? Is it that difficult?" His voice revealed a hint of impatience and curiosity, seemingly puzzled by Vivian's delay in dealing with the intruder. Tanshao looked unusually tense, trying to explain the reason for Vivian's delayed return. Tanshao's words were cautious, as he knew Rein's personality and style, and the consequences of displeasing him were unimaginable.
"That intruder seems to be quite difficult, and it seems like the two of them had a... rather intense fight?" Tanshao carefully chose his words, his voice slightly hesitant, and his eyes involuntarily glanced at the broken window of the office, as if seeking some kind of support. Tanshao's voice sounded particularly clear in this quiet corner, his words tinged with some hesitation, as if searching for the right words to describe the current situation. As he responded, Rein's voice came again, this time with obvious impatience and doubt.
"Quite intense, isn't it?" Rein's voice carried a hint of playfulness, as if finding Tanshao's description somewhat amusing. "Vivian has always been formidable, hasn't she? Could it be that this so-called intruder really has the ability to challenge her in a battle?"
Tanshao's heart raced, keenly feeling the pressure in Rein's words. He understood the importance of this mission and how any failure would have unfavorable consequences for The Curse of the Wild. Tanshao quickly responded, attempting to ease Rein's emotions, "Yes, Rein... I believe Vivian will soon take care of him. It's just that this battle... may be more complicated than we anticipated."
Tanshao felt the pressure intensify. He knew Rein's character, understanding that this leader not only had extremely high expectations for his subordinates, but also held great interest and curiosity in any variables. Tanshao responded cautiously, attempting to avoid further piquing Rein's curiosity while also not downplaying the challenges Vivian faced.
"Vivian is very powerful, but this opponent is not simple either. We should give her more time and support. I believe she can handle it all." Tanshao tried to maintain a calm tone, but inside, he was in turmoil.
Rein's laughter echoed in the quiet space, seemingly hinting at an unusual meaning. Tanshao felt a hint of unease in this laughter, knowing well Rein's intelligence and calculation; any word could become a future foreshadowing. Rein's words continued to come through, with a hint of mockery and curiosity in the voice.
"I must say, it's the first time I've heard you consider Vivian like this. It seems this new invader is indeed quite interesting, huh?" Rein's tone was frivolous, as if enjoying every aspect of this game. "Tanshao, do you think this has given us a new form of entertainment? I'm starting to feel curious about this so-called invader."
Tanshao felt the pressure increase under Rein's words, and he was keenly aware that Rein's interest had been piqued, which could be a dangerous turning point for Vivian. Tanshao tried to remain composed and responded, "Indeed, this new invader has brought us some unexpected challenges, but I believe it is also a good opportunity to test our strength in The Curse of the Wild."
Rein's laughter rang out again, seemingly satisfied with Tanshao's response, perhaps because this unexpected challenge had given him a new sense of anticipation. But for Tanshao, the hidden meaning behind that laughter made him handle everything even more cautiously, to avoid triggering unforeseeable consequences.
Rein's voice came through the dim light, accompanied by a deep yawn, showing that he didn't seem too worried about the current situation. He stretched lazily, his voice carrying a hint of drowsiness, "I'm going to sleep first, tell me when they come back... Hopefully it's good news." His words seemed to leave all the responsibility and burden to Tanshao.
Tanshao stood in the distance, his shadow stretched long by the dim yellow light. After hearing Rein's words, he simply replied, "Yes... I will tell them again." There wasn't much emotional fluctuation in his voice, but it faintly revealed a hint of helplessness and pressure. Tanshao knew that Rein's seemingly casual remark actually pushed all the responsibility onto him, making him even more anxious on this tense night.
Tanshao stood quietly in place, contemplating his next move. He knew that every word from Rein could hold profound meaning, and he had to carefully navigate each crisis to ensure his own interests were not harmed. After Rein sank into slumber, Tanshao's night was just beginning.
