Chapter 139 Witnessing the Kiss
Carl set up his sniper rifle on the top floor of an abandoned high-rise building and adjusted the scope, still looking as casual as usual. An urging voice kept coming from his communicator, "Scavenger 13, the target is in the bridge hole, get ready to shoot."

Fifteen minutes ago, he received an urgent mission from the scavengers, who claimed to have found the location of the long-missing target through mental positioning.

Carl chewed gum and aimed the scope at the bridge hole in the distance. After searching for a few seconds, a young man appeared in his field of vision. He was talking to another person with his back to him.

"Received. Target detected."

Carl replied and was about to pull the trigger when he suddenly saw the boy's figure tilted, revealing the face of another person. Carl's hand trembled, and he suddenly raised his head to look in the direction of the bridge hole, then immediately looked nervously through the sight.

Qiao Suisui and Anubis were standing together, trying to walk out of the bridge hole side by side. They seemed to be discussing something, but Anubis kept talking and Qiao Suisui only replied occasionally. Carl could see that the boy had an anxious and worried look on his face, and was arguing with reason, while Qiao Suisui looked determined.

The voice in the communicator sounded again, more urgently, "Scavenger 13, time is running out, shoot!"

Karl's finger was on the trigger, but he didn't pull the trigger. His eyes were fixed on Qiao Suisui, confirming again and again that he was not dazzled.

At this moment, Qiao Susu seemed impatient with the boy's nagging. She suddenly hooked the other's belt and pulled him in front of her, then stood on tiptoe and stopped only a few millimeters away from Anubis' lips.

At that moment, time seemed to stand still, Carl's heart suddenly shrank, and his fingers froze on the trigger.

"Scavenger 13! What are you doing? Shoot!" The voice in the communicator almost exploded.

However, Carl seemed unaware of what was happening. He stared at the scene in the scope, his whole body frozen in place.

Inside the bridge cave.

Anubis' body shook violently, his back stiffened, his heart beat violently, his cheeks flushed visibly, and his breathing became rapid.

His hands froze in mid-air, like the void embracing her. He felt his face getting hot, and he forgot what he wanted to say. His mind was blank, leaving only the indescribable throbbing and the softness that he could touch as long as he lowered his head.

Qiao Suisui's long hair was blown by the wind and brushed against his chest. She landed on her heels, let go of his belt, then looked up at the stunned boy and threatened, "I have decided to find evidence to prove it for the rebels. If you persuade me again, I will kiss you."

Just now, Anubis had been trying to get her not to worry about the rebels. She knew he was afraid that she would be implicated and put in danger.

Anubis' heart seemed to be about to jump out of his chest. He tried hard to calm himself, but the blush on his face betrayed his inner panic and excitement.

"You, you can't do this."

Qiao Suisui teased him, "What?"

Anubis' chest heaved as he looked at her with a frown, his face serious: "If it was someone else, would you use this method to make the other party compromise?" When he said this, it felt like his heart, which had originally fallen into a honey pot, was thrown into the frying pan again.

Qiao Suisui tried to hold back her laughter and said deliberately, "Yeah, it works, doesn't it? Look, you can't speak now."

Anubis lowered his eyes and stared at her, his burning gaze wandering over her lips. "Who else have you done this to?"

Qiao Suisui smiled and said, "This trick is only useful to you. Hmm!"

Before she could finish her words, the young man's strong hand gently lifted her chin and sealed her lips softly.

Anubis closed his eyes, lowered his head and gently sucked her lips, as if he was not satisfied, he licked her tongue like a puppy. His movements were obviously immature and shy, but with a gesture of possession and protection, he rubbed her lips with his lips and teeth again and again.

Qiao Susu didn't expect him to be serious. Her legs felt weak from the kiss. She put her hands on his strong chest and tried to push him away, but she had no strength. However, Anubis noticed her slight rejection and let her go immediately, carefully observing her expression, afraid that she was unhappy.

Just as the two separated, a bullet flew past with a bang. However, the crosshairs were slightly off, and the bullet grazed Anubis' neck, leaving a trace of blood, but it was not fatal.

Anubis' first reaction was to protect Qiao Susu behind him. He quickly looked in the direction where the bullet came from, which was the top floor of a tall building in the distance.

"They are coming." Anubis held her hand tightly and quickly protected her to find a shelter.

He asked Qiao Suisui to squat behind a large abandoned aluminum can, which was a blind spot for snipers.

"Their target is me. I will lead them away. You take this opportunity to leave quickly."

Qiao Suisui grabbed his wrist and said, "Come with me to the Aoslan Imperial Court. It's at least safe there."

Anubis shook his head, "I've already been exposed. If I follow you to the Imperial Court, I'll bring you trouble."

She wanted to say something else, but Anubis quickly kissed her on the mouth.

"Joe, I like you. Ever since you pretended to be a male."

The sudden confession left Qiao Susu stunned.

"Listen to me this time, okay?" He gently stroked her cheek, his eyes full of tenderness. "Trust me, this will be safer for you."

Qiao Suisui met Anubis' sincere eyes and had to nod. "Then we'll meet on the southern battlefield."

Anubis didn't want her to go to the southern battlefield, but there was obviously no time for discussion. He looked at her deeply, then took something out of his trouser pocket and put it in her palm. He squeezed her hand hard, then turned around and ran out of the bridge at an extremely fast speed.

Qiao Susu didn't look away until she could no longer see his figure. She opened her palms and saw a wolf tooth necklace made of colorful braided rope.

She touched the wolf's fang in a daze for a while, and suddenly, a figure appeared above her head.

Qiao Suisui raised her head defensively, but was startled when she saw the other person. "Karl, why are you here?"

The man was wearing a black shirt, and the X-shaped gun strap was tightly attached to his body, outlining his chest shape, making him look particularly handsome and tall. He looked gloomy, bit off his gloves with his mouth, revealing his slender and powerful hands, and directly took the wolf tooth from her hand.

Karl sneered, picking up the wolf tooth necklace with one finger, his face as dark as the bottom of a pot. He stared at Qiao Suisui and asked, "He even gave you this thing. It seems that you have known each other for more than one or two days, right?"

Qiao Suisui was puzzled, "Is this something very valuable?"

In the interstellar world, wolf orcs are not a particularly large group, and are even on the verge of extinction. In order to pass on the spirit of the wolf tribe, they continue the traditional ceremony of establishing the king. Whoever defeats the wolf king will become the new wolf king of the tribe. And the wolf fangs are proof of status.

The outside world only knows that Dante Connor is a brave captain of the former federal elite force and a leader of the rebel army. However, few people know that he was defeated by his own son. According to tradition, he gave Anubis his sharpest tooth when he was in beast form, which indicated his abdication and the succession of the new wolf king.

Anubis gave Qiao Suisui the symbol of his status as the Wolf King, which represented a recognition.

Wolves are loyal to only one mate throughout their lives.

Karl knew very well the significance of this wolf fang, but he didn't want to tell Qiao Susu anything.
