Chapter 270 Mediocrity
"Who has been captured?" Anti did not make any comment on what happened on the ship. Since everyone had been captured, this was what Anti was more concerned about.

Celia thought for a moment and said, "Lin Jinghong and his brother were caught by the octopus while they were protecting the others. The girl who could make fire in the sea and the air messenger were not caught."

She was also quite smart and knew that what Anti really wanted to know was probably only about the people he was familiar with, so she told him accurately.

Although she had no contact with An Ti, people in the upper class would not be able to read people's expressions and were too embarrassed to talk about it. After paying a little attention on the boat during the past few days, it was not difficult to see the relationship between the people around Lin Jinghong.

"Okay, let's go back and check where you escaped from," said Anti.

Celia opened her mouth and subconsciously wanted to say it was dangerous, but when she saw Anti's look, she swallowed her words.

The battle between Anti and Lindsay was witnessed by everyone on the ship, so she didn't need to worry about their strength at all.

She just needs to be a good guide for Anti.

……

"Brother, be careful." Lin Jingxian supported Lin Jinghong and walked carefully between the bookshelves.

Lin Jinghong was in a very bad condition at this time. Although the main purpose of the group of octopuses was to kidnap people, they didn't really care whether the people they kidnapped were dead or alive, and they didn't care how severe their attacks were.

He was seriously injured in the abdomen, which was simply sutured with the vital branches generated by Lin Jingxian's wood miracle, and then repaired by himself with the clean water miracle moment.

Lin Jinghong was sweating profusely at this time, but his expression remained calm.

The injuries I received in the fire environment of the City of Ashes were much worse than now, although not much better. Back then, I was almost on the verge of death but was saved because of the illusion. The current situation is not as simple as that illusion.

After walking for a while, they decided to take a short break. They were currently feeling dizzy in this library, and walking aimlessly would only cause trouble to the injured Lin Jinghong.

In the gap between the bookshelf, Lin Jingxian treated Lin Jinghong's wound again.

His hands were shaking. Although using wooden branches to temporarily treat wounds was a basic subject of wooden miracles, when he actually used it, watching the branches going in and out of his brother's flesh and blood, Lin Jingxian couldn't help but tremble in his hands.

It was shocking, but Lin Jinghong remained calm. Only the slight trembling of his body showed that he was not at ease either.

"The external wound is almost healed, but it seems like something is stuck inside, maybe in some internal organs." Lin Jingxian said with a gloomy expression.

Lin Jinghong said: "That's enough, let's just leave it at that. We can't perform any elaborate treatment right now."

Lin Jingxian could only do this.

But after sitting down, he couldn't help raising his hand and wanted to hammer hard, but then he remembered that they were on the run, so he couldn't do it because he was afraid of causing a big noise and attracting those sea monsters.

"Damn it, Zhang Bing and his gang of idiots thought they were taking a risk! Even taking a risk doesn't mean they are so brainless!" He could only curse in a low voice.

"Calm down. I've taught you so many times. No matter how your emotions are stimulated, only by keeping calm can you accomplish great things." Lin Jinghong said to Lin Jingxian after taking a deep breath.

"I just can't learn to be like you and my sister! And brother, you have to understand, we may die at any time, especially you like this! You don't have to care about those idiots. Let them die on the bottom of the sea. No matter what their families say, it has nothing to do with us!" Lin Jingxian was so angry that he couldn't help but complain.

Lin Jinghong looked at him quietly and sighed: "This ship belongs to our family. My parents and sister are not here. I am the oldest on the ship and I have to hold up this facade. No matter what kind of accident this is, someone must be responsible, and now it can only be me."

"Since you like to be responsible so much, why don't you agree to your sister's arrangement and go to help her after graduation?" Lin Jingxian said softly.

Lin Jinghong couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Boy, it seems that you are not that nervous. You still want to change the concept."

Lin Jingxian couldn't laugh: "This time it's really terrible, brother. I always thought that I was not much different from you, but when I really encountered something, I realized that I was far behind... You can quickly calm people's hearts, fight at the forefront, and command everyone to fight back those outrageous crabs..."

"You are indeed far behind." Lin Jinghong naturally would not give face to his younger brother. "Talent is one thing, but it takes learning to realize talent. My sister and I have given you an environment that is too free and comfortable. It's not your fault in this regard."

Lin Jingxian was silent for a moment: "I...want to try to help you."

Ever since he learned about Lin Jinghong's experiences in Sun City and Cinder City, he has been a little scared.

I followed up on the matter of Anti, who was beside my brother. In just half a year, so many hidden dangers broke out. Although they were always resolved in a relatively good way in the end, the danger in the process still existed.

Not only the mixed dream world, the Blue Star itself is not necessarily peaceful.

As he grew up, Lin Jingxian's fantasies about adventures in the dream world have gradually faded.

When I learned that my brother's life lock was broken when he faced the wandering god in Sun City, and he almost died in Cinder City, that fantasy was completely shattered.

The two brothers have a huge family business waiting to be inherited, why would they run to the dangerous place of Mixed Dream Realm every day just to experience the excitement of adventure and the glory of being a hero? "I know." Lin Jinghong said lightly.

Lin Jingxian looked at him in surprise.

"You were not originally scheduled for this voyage, but you insisted on coming. Even if you asked me to keep it a secret from me, your method was too low-level." Lin Jinghong said.

Lin Jingxian scratched his head awkwardly: "Although I didn't help you very well."

The social occasion he was most accustomed to was nightclubs, and he had developed a rather volatile personality due to his long-term development. He was able to avoid making a fool of himself at previous banquets thanks to Lin Jinghong's support.

"Actually, I also plan to help my sister after graduation." Lin Jinghong suddenly said.

"Ah? Didn't you always say that after graduation you would go out and have fun before coming back?" Lin Jingxian said in surprise.

"Nothing...I've just been a little tired lately."

Lin Jinghong leaned his head on the bookshelf behind him, his eyes a little absent-minded.

Recalling the surprise attack on the crab troops, Nie Hongqi miraculously ignored the crabs' hard shells and played like a god of war. There was also Shang Liyu who stood on the bow and could draw fire spirits on the seabed, making the flames burn in the sea water to fight against the firepower of the crab gunners.

There was also Anti, who had disappeared due to an accident, but Lin Jinghong believed that he would be fine. It was even possible that when he appeared, everything would be settled, just like a deus ex machina, smashing all the troubles of mortals like them.

That is such an existence.

It's hard to imagine that I, who was once considered rebellious, would one day admire someone, but retreat because of the huge gap between them, believing that I can't keep up with the other person... or even catch up with that shadow.

Nie Hong's talent is actually very strong, and Shang Liyu has even become a wandering god once.

I have been pulled far away from them invisibly.

Lin Jinghong is not someone who insists on holding on. He cannot let go of his family affairs. If he is really completely abandoned by the three of them, it would be too embarrassing.

He knew that he could no longer keep up.

When a perfect genius accepts his mediocrity, it may not be a bad thing for him.

In Lin Jinghong's eyes, the purple color in Jingshui's pupils slowly flowed.

After resting long enough, the two brothers continued on their way after hearing the movement of the octopus-headed sea monster around them.

After the two brothers carefully dealt with several octopus heads along the way, they groped in confusion in the maze of the library.

After walking around for several floors, I felt that the surrounding scenery was no different.

Lin Jingxian inevitably became anxious again.

However, Lin Jinghong's eyes flickered slightly, and a strange route seemed to appear in the water in front of him, passing through Lin Jinghong's eyes and then pointing to a certain place.

If you don't concentrate and use your Still Water Eyes to observe, this stream of water is barely visible.

Is it some kind of guidance?
He was cautious and did not rush into anything at the first opportunity.

But after circling around with Lin Jingxian for a while, he still found nothing. Now he concentrated his attention again and could still see the guidance of the water flow in front of him.

"Jingxian, let's change the route." Lin Jinghong gently wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, his breathing becoming heavier.

"...Do you want to take a break?" Lin Jingxian said worriedly as he saw the sweat on Lin Jinghong's body mixing into the surrounding sea water.

Although the external wounds have almost healed, the condition is still deteriorating.

With his wooden miracle and his brother's own water miracle providing treatment at all times, there was no way the wound could get infected.

The voice of the octopus head appeared again around.

Lin Jinghong didn't have much energy to speak, so he just shook his head and walked in the direction of the flowing water. Lin Jingxian could only follow quickly.
