You wouldn't want them to be bullied, would you?

Qiu Bi supported Maria's thighs, causing Maria to lean softly against his back.

Brown strands of hair fell from the side of his face, sometimes brushing against Qiu Bi's face, sometimes slipping into his clothes, making him feel itchy.

Maria's fists were hard when she was fighting, but her body was very soft at this moment. Qiu Bi could even clearly feel the soft, yielding breasts pressing against his back, and he could also vaguely feel how amazing the curve of Maria's breasts was.

Qiu Bi didn't have any romantic thoughts about this; he was simply filled with heartfelt emotion.

The stubborn and obstinate little girl has now not only grown into a graceful and beautiful young woman, but has also become a strong person capable of standing on her own.

"Let's go. Qiluo, Eden, I'll have to trouble you with the rest of the battle."

"No problem! Protecting your man, isn't that just the right thing to do?"

Shi Yu Qi Luo patted her chest nonchalantly, as if she were the man and Qiu Bi was a weak woman who needed to be protected.

Qiu Bi noticed the strangeness in Shi Yu Qi Luo's words, but he didn't say anything. He just smiled irritably and carried the unconscious Maria toward the teleportation portal.

Shigure Kira faithfully walked at the very front, while Eden lagged behind. Six musical notes intertwined and danced, while a jet-black sphere hovered in the air, poised to launch.

In contrast, others...

Cecilia and the Snow Wolf Squad are still searching for the others.

The heroes were on a picnic, their atmosphere harmonious and relaxed, not at all like they were on a campaign against the Lawbringers.

Chapter 362 The Puppet: If You Can't Win, Run Away

"How can this be?!"

"What kind of power is that?!"

"We clearly controlled his Herrscher powers, so why was he still able to help that human break free from our control?!"

The puppets gathered in the middle of the theater, seemingly discussing or arguing, arguing fiercely about Qiu Bi's abilities.

If the events that occurred before were entirely under their control, then the current situation is somewhat beyond their control.

They had initially looked down on Qiu Bi, this "lawyer," thinking he was just there to deliver lawyer powers, but now they had to take him seriously.

"How about... we call it quits and run away first, and then consider dealing with the other Herrschers after we've gathered enough information?"

A puppet raises its right hand, timidly offering a suggestion.

In an instant, the chaotic and noisy theater fell silent, and the other puppets all looked toward the puppet that made the suggestion.

"That's a really good idea. Since we can't win, why don't we run away?"

"That's right! Given our unique control over the theater, as long as we keep hiding like turtles, humans will never be able to find us."

The suggestion to escape was quickly agreed upon by the other dolls, and they immediately began to discuss how to escape quietly.

After a moment, the puppets came up with a brilliant plan—

By "cutting off their tails to survive," they separated themselves from the human-occupied area, thus escaping human pursuit and leaving the troubled Academy City behind.

After the plan was formulated, the puppets began to implement it step by step, sending out puppets one by one to block Qiu Bi and the others from advancing.

Forcibly severing a portion of the dominant theater will cause varying degrees of damage to the dominant theater, the extent of which is linked to the size of the severed space.

If circumstances allow, the smaller the space for division, the better.

……

Dominating the edge of the theater.

Bored, Sirin fiddled with the bowstring of the "Bow of Light" while patiently waiting for Qiu Bi and the others to arrive at the theater.

When Qiu Bi and the others arrive at the Dominion Theater, Sirin will use her Herrscher powers as the "Herrscher of the Void," which can only be used once, to directly reach the location of Qiu Bi and the others.

"Ok?"

Xilin suddenly exclaimed in surprise, clearly having realized something.

Then, she composed herself, straightened up, and carefully sensed the changes in the theater.

"Hmph! Don't even think about escaping!"

Sirin snorted coldly, then grasped the "Bow of Light," quickly nocked an arrow, and drew the string.

call out--!

A sudden whooshing sound rang out as a purple arrow pierced through the air, its target the shattered corridor where Qiu Bi and the others were located.

Seeing that the space had been pierced by the arrow, Sirin nodded in satisfaction, and then activated the Herrscher power of "Herrscher of the Void" without any hesitation, forcibly sealing off and dominating the theater.

It's not surprising that someone with the Herrscher powers of the "Herrscher of the Void" could do something like this.

Furthermore, Celine can even "turn the tables" and seize control of the theater.

Unfortunately, this process takes a considerable amount of time, and before Sirin succeeds, the Herrscher powers will be forcibly controlled by the "Herrscher of Domination".

The Theater of Domination was sealed off by Sirin, and even though the Herrscher of Domination has the Herrscher powers of the Herrscher of the Void, it will be difficult to break the seal set by Sirin in a short time.

All that is needed for everyone to do during this period is to find and defeat the true form of the "Herrscher of Domination".

"Although I have temporarily lost one of my Herrscher powers, it doesn't matter. I can still ask Angeline for help when necessary."

Unconcerned about the Herrscher powers that had disappeared from her body, Sirin stepped into the hole pierced by the arrow earlier, leading directly to the broken corridor where Qiu Bi and the others were.

To avoid being trapped here for too long after losing her Herrscher powers as the "Herrscher of the Void," Sirin deliberately used an arrow imbued with the "Herrscher of the Void" powers to pierce through space before sealing it off.

……

Broken corridor.

Just as Qiu Bi and the others were about to pass through the portal and enter the next section of the broken corridor, an arrow silently appeared and shot into the ground behind them.

Qiu Bi glanced back and recognized it as Xilin's arrow.

"Qiluo, wait a moment, Xilin should be here soon."

Qiu Bi called out to Shigure Kira, who was about to enter the teleportation portal.

Upon hearing this, Shi Yu Qi Luo turned her head and looked at Qiu Bi with a puzzled expression.

Before she could ask any further questions, Sirin had already silently appeared next to the arrow.

Xilin instinctively wanted to throw herself into Qiu Bi's arms, but the next second she saw Qiu Bi carrying Maria on his back, so she quickly changed her target and threw herself into Eden's arms.

Eden smiled and stroked Sirin gently.

"Cirin, where is everyone else?"

“Cecilia’s mother and the others were behind, while the heroes were behind Cecilia’s mother and the others.”

As she spoke, Celine gently nuzzled Eden's chest.

Although Eden's chest was soft, it didn't feel as good to Sirin as Qiu Bi's chest.

After all, Qiu Bi was the first man she saw after regaining her sight, and also her only father.

"correct!"

Sirin pulled away from Eden's embrace and continued, "Daddy, the 'Herrscher of Domination' tried to escape just now, but Sirin stopped her!"

"How many of your Herrscher powers have you lost?"

Qiu Bi was not fooled by Xilin and asked her questions concisely.

Sirin's expression froze instantly, and her tone softened slightly: "Sirin has lost the Herrscher powers of the 'Herrscher of the Void'..."

"Only this power was lost?"

"Mmm! Sirin's other abilities are still working normally~"

That being said, based on the existing Herrscher powers of the "Herrscher of Domination," Sirin's remaining Herrscher powers are very likely to be ineffective, with only the Herrscher power of the "Herrscher of Death" remaining capable of harming the dolls.

Ultimately, Angeline might need to intervene to resolve the issue of the "Herrscher of Domination."

"Dad, let's hurry—we need to deal with the 'Herrscher of Domination' before they lift the blockade!"

Celine subtly changed the subject, while simultaneously pulling Shigure Kira and Eden into the portal.

Qiu Bi sighed helplessly and then followed closely behind.

Maria groggily opened her eyes, looked at Qiu Bi's profile, hesitated to speak, and finally succumbed to the overwhelming drowsiness, falling back into a coma.

Before she lost consciousness, her hesitant behavior caused a warm breath to enter Qiu Bi's ear, making Qiu Bi subconsciously stop in his tracks.

"Maria, are you awake?"

Qiu Bi turned his head to the side, seemingly asking Maria a question, but also seemingly observing Maria's condition.

Because Qiu Bi was carrying Maria on his back, the way he turned his face to the side looked like he was actively rubbing his cheek against Maria's, appearing intimate and affectionate.

Chapter 363 Maria Awakens

In the eyes of Sirin, Shigure Kira, and Eden, Qiu Bi carried Maria out of the portal, their cheeks pressed tightly together, like a couple enjoying a tender moment.

Shiyu Kira and Eden exchanged a knowing smile, while Xilin hid behind Eden and chuckled softly.

At this moment, Qiu Bi belatedly realized that his actions with Maria were too intimate, and that Maria was not yet awake. So he quickly turned his head to look elsewhere, deliberately keeping a distance from Maria.

"Dad, Celine will help you win over Aunt Maria!"

Xilin was the first to speak out in support of Qiu Bi.

Before Qiu Bi could even defend himself, Shi Yu Qi Luo grabbed Xi Lin's cheek and scolded her fiercely, "Xi Lin, Maria is Cecilia's sister, you can't say that!"

"Then...why can't we make Aunt Maria Celine's mother?"

Xilin blinked, looking completely innocent.

Shigure Kira was speechless; Xilin's words seemed to have no problem.

Maria being Cecilia's sister doesn't mean she can't be Celine's "mother"...

Shigure Kira always felt that something was strange, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

"Does Qiluo's mother also think what I said makes a lot of sense?"

Xilin's smiling question left Shiyu Qiluo speechless.

Eden chuckled for a moment, then quickly composed himself and whispered a warning: "An enemy is approaching."
