Only after Lin Zichen asked him to leave did he reluctantly make the rational choice to abandon Lin Zichen, prioritizing his own safety.
Therefore, he didn't feel embarrassed to face Lin Zichen like the others did.
When he asked this question, everyone else was all ears.
They were also very curious about how Lin Zichen managed to escape from the fox-eared girl's grasp.
After all, that fox-eared girl was so powerful that she had taken control of the instructor, Lu Tianrong, in an instant, terrifyingly strong.
In the face of everyone's curiosity, Lin Zichen calmly said, "I didn't escape; I drove her off."
Huh?
Drove her off?
Hearing this answer, those who didn't know the full story all widened their eyes with disbelief.
The fox-eared girl who could instantly control Lu Tianrong, whose Biological Level was as high as an advanced Sixth Order, was driven off by you, an ordinary individual?
What a joke?!
Zhang Kai asked curiously, "How did you drive the fox-eared girl off?"
Before Lin Zichen could explain, Lu Tianrong approached from nearby and said, "That fox-eared girl's physique isn't strong; she just has outstanding spiritual power."
"At the beginning, when she was controlling me, she consumed too much spiritual power, which caused her strength to decline significantly."
"Then, Lin Zichen drove her off by taking advantage of his superior physical strength."
"..."
The crowd listened and suddenly understood.
So that's how it was.
No wonder Lin Zichen was able to drive off the fox-eared girl.
It turned out the fox-eared girl had run out of mana.
A mage without mana is just like a gunwoman without her gun; any healthy adult male could lethally strike her down with a physical advantage.
On the other hand, Yuan Dongzhi found Lu Tianrong's explanation somewhat amusing after she heard it.
She had seen the entire process of Lin Zichen's battle with the fox-eared girl.
She knew that at that time, the fox-eared girl was full of spirit and had hardly expended any at all.
Her inability to defeat Lin Zichen was purely because her spiritual power couldn't create a gap between them and Lin Zichen.
...
About half an hour passed.
Over the hills, a large military aircraft appeared.
It was the true reinforcements from the military district.
Moreover, it was the female officer Yao Heling who personally led the team.
Seeing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
They were finally saved.
The day's disaster was finally coming to an end.
They could go home now.
Soon, the aircraft's hatch opened.
Yao Heling alighted with several mechanically modified humans and landed on the hill.
Yao Heling was baffled and became increasingly puzzled the more she thought about it.
Yuan Dongzhi guessed, "Maybe she just wanted to try something new."
"Can you even try something new with this?"
After saying this, Yao Heling continued, "There's only one original yin, and once it's gone, it's gone. It doesn't seem likely that a vulpine woman would give hers away just for a taste of something new."
Yuan Dongzhi disagreed, "Hard to say, the world is full of wonders; perhaps some vulpine women don't care about their original yin and like to seek novelty."
That's what she said, but in her heart, she thought differently.
In terms of Qi-Blood, Lin Zichen was capable of killing, without any injury, a heavily wounded higher Sixth Order adversary with just an Ordinary Ninth Rank body.
Regarding spiritual power, Lin Zichen could resist the illusion technique attacks of a same-rank vulpine woman.
Such astonishing talent was elite even in the Origin Land.
Plus, his looks were exceptionally good.
It was completely normal for the vulpine girl to fancy him and to choose him as her cultivation cauldron.
As for why the vulpine girl came to Earth,
Yuan Dongzhi guessed that she did not specifically come to Earth to look for a cauldron but was driven by curiosity to experience Earth for herself.
Then, during the process of satisfying her curiosity, she learned about Lin Zichen from the Divine Plant Cult and thought he suited her, was to her liking, and casually chose him as her cultivation cauldron.
Yuan Dongzhi's speculation was quite logical.
But unfortunately, she was wrong.
Because the vulpine girl had indeed come to Earth specifically to find a cultivation cauldron.
Her father was an Earthling, who, after deceiving her mother for money and pleasure and impregnating her, vanished without a trace, never to be heard from again.
Yet even so, her mother harbored an unfading obsession with her father, refusing other male creatures despite being manipulated emotionally and abandoned – he was irreplaceable.
Her mother would even tell her daily how wonderful her father, who left at the drop of a hat, was.
Although irresponsible, he was indeed very charming.
Under her mother's influence, she grew up curious about Earth men.
She thought about finding an Earth man as her cultivation cauldron in the future to see what was so good about them that made her mother constantly pine for him.
"How is the military area now?"
After discussing the topic of the vulpine woman, Yuan Dongzhi shifted the conversation to this matter.
Yao Heling took a sip of tea and smiled, "Completely suppressed."
"Including those you dealt with, a total of 47 heretics embedded for years have been rooted out."
"It's almost a complete purge of the heretics within the entire military area, a vast haul."
A vast haul?
Yuan Dongzhi thought this phrase sounded odd.
Seeing the smile that remained on Yao Heling's face, she keenly sensed something off.
Her face suddenly turned cold as she said, "Don't tell me that this military training exercise was a setup by the military area to cleanse the heretics, using the trainees as bait for a fishing law enforcement operation."
The female officer's face subtly changed upon hearing this, but it was fleeting, and she quickly furrowed her brows and said, "You can eat messy, but you must not talk nonsense."
Yuan Dongzhi's face remained stern, her voice icy and unemotional, "Yao Heling, I hope I've misunderstood today's event; otherwise, I will not let you off the hook."
