Chapter 448: Chapter 448 - 306: Shock from the East (Part 3)
Right at that moment!
Kevin noticed Rachel’s odd reaction, followed her gaze to Lin Lang, and snorted disdainfully, saying:
"Lady Rachel, you don’t need to pay too much attention to him. This instrument must be malfunctioning. With him like this, what kind of strong combat power could he have? It’s just a trick."
Kevin crossed his arms, looking indifferent, always unable to believe Lin Lang had anything extraordinary.
Rachel gently shook her head and said seriously:
"Kevin, don’t underestimate anyone easily. If the instrument can’t detect his combat power, it means he either has some special hidden methods or his strength already exceeds the instrument’s detection range. Either way, it’s worth our attention."
Though Kevin was still unconvinced in his heart, under Rachel’s authority, he could only pout and remain silent.
Lin Lang seemed to have sensed everyone’s gaze. He looked up, just meeting Rachel’s eyes.
He nodded slightly, flashed a polite smile, and then continued to immerse himself in his world of music.
At this time, the cheerful "Sunshine Rainbow Little White Horse" continued to loop in the cabin.
And several Black team members were sitting there, gritting their teeth!
...
During the long flight.
Xina was meticulously caring for Lin Lang!
Her gaze followed Lin Lang all the time, unwilling to look away even for a moment.
Like a flight attendant—
Occasionally handing Lin Lang warm drinks, occasionally asking considerately if he needed a blanket!
Every move was full of concern.
The way she attended to his needs, it seemed as if Lin Lang was the most cherished person to her in this world.
She clung closely to Lin Lang, seemingly unwilling to part with him for even a moment.
The once carefree and unrestrained Xina, who claimed she didn’t need anyone to take responsibility, seemed to have completely changed.
Now, she showed extreme dependence on Lin Lang, a dependence reflected in every aspect from her gaze to her actions.
Lin Lang only responded to Xina’s enthusiasm and dependence with a smile.
Occasionally whispering a few words to her, his demeanor gentle and kind.
However, all this was watched by Kevin, whose anger was burning brighter and brighter—
Kevin couldn’t comprehend why Xina, a woman from the Beautiful Country, would act so "humble" toward an Eastern man?
In his narrow view, this was simply a humiliation, making him feel extremely embarrassed.
Kevin’s face became gloomier, his eyes occasionally flashing with sparks of jealousy and anger.
He sat not far away, his hands tightly clenched into fists, knuckles turning white from the strain, occasionally muttering curses under his breath.
He felt Xina’s actions were practically a "betrayal" of women from the Beautiful Country!
Entirely against his inherent understanding of women from his country as proud and independent!
"Hmph, what’s so good about an Eastern guy? Xina must have lost her mind!"
Kevin couldn’t help but murmur lowly, his voice though soft, was filled with scorn and anger.
He glared at Lin Lang viciously, as if trying to pierce him with his eyes.
And Xina seemed completely unaware of Kevin’s abnormal behavior, or rather, she didn’t care about Kevin’s thoughts at all.
She just concentrated on being with Lin Lang, immersing herself in the time spent together with him, her face glowing with a joyful smile.
In her eyes, at this moment, Lin Lang was her entire world, and nothing else mattered.
...
The aircraft flew steadily like a giant steel bird above the sea of clouds!
But when it flew over the vast and boundless ocean!
The once clear sky suddenly turned into a turbulent wind and cloud—
Ahead in the sky!
Thick dark clouds surged rapidly like black tides, piled on top of each other as if trying to devour the entire world.
Following that!
Thick streaks of lightning darted through the clouds like flood dragons recklessly!
Each one released dazzling light, illuminating the dark clouds in an instant.
Thunder roared, like thousands of galloping horses, shaking the cabin slightly!
...
"Beep beep beep——"
The life detection instrument on the plane emitted a rapid alarm!
The sharp sound echoed within the cabin.
Everyone looked at the detection screen—
On it, it showed strong life signs in that terrifying area of lightning ahead!
"There are creatures within the lightning?!"
"Is it an Eastern demon?"
This discovery instantly tensed the atmosphere in the cabin.
A special forces team member frowned and said seriously:
"This doesn’t seem right, that life signal is very powerful, we’d better wait a bit and see what happens."
Other team members nodded in agreement.
However, Kevin looked disdainful, suddenly stood up, and said loudly:
"We are elites of the Beautiful Country, fearless! It’s just a small Eastern demon, what’s there to fear? Let’s charge through directly!"
His eyes were full of arrogance and self-confidence, seeming not to take the powerful unknown existence ahead seriously at all.
Xina appeared worried, looked at Kevin and advised:
"Kevin, don’t be so rash, this is not a joke. We know nothing about that thing, it’s very dangerous to rush in."
Kevin, however, didn’t care, glanced at Xina contemptuously, and said:
"Xina, after staying in the Eastern Country for a period, even your courage has shrunk so much? Don’t let such a small scene scare you. Our Beautiful Country’s strength is not to be trifled with."
Rachel, who had been silent all along, looked at the flashing life sign data on the screen, her brows furrowed.
