Facing the weeping woman before him, Ling Tian didn't know what to do or say, so he could only let her vent.
Aurora buried her head in Ling Tian's arms, crying in pain. Her tears soaked his clothes. Ling Tian was reminded once again of his masters' teachings: women were troublesome.
However, it seemed none of his masters had taught him how to comfort a crying woman. There was no standard answer to such a thing; a crying woman was beyond reason.
Naturally, there were no scientific principles involved either.
Suddenly, Ling Tian had an idea. He gently stroked Aurora's back, and at the same time, a surge of internal energy flowed into several acupoints on her back.
As Aurora continued to cry, a wave of exhaustion washed over her. Her eyes could no longer stay open, and she lost consciousness.
As if by magic, a pillow appeared in Ling Tian's hand. He carefully placed it under Aurora's neck and quietly watched the sleeping woman.
Aurora had been too tired lately, constantly fighting and under immense mental strain. Coupled with the knowledge of her father's true cause of death, all these things had taken a heavy toll on her.
Therefore, Ling Tian decided to let her cry it out, release her sorrow, and then let her have a good sleep.
She slept for an unknown duration. When Aurora opened her eyes again, it was already pitch black outside.
Ling Tian had prepared some food for Aurora to fill her stomach. Aurora was a bit surprised because the food Ling Tian brought was still warm.
She thought Ling Tian had deliberately gone outside to find food for her. In reality, the food was prepared by Ling Tian in the kitchen of the spiritual realm space.
"Ling Tian, what should we do next?" Aurora asked.
"Just charge in," Ling Tian replied with a smile.
Aurora thought for a moment and shook her head.
"No, Ling Tian, that would be too dangerous!
Cuyt Castle is heavily guarded, and the surrounding area is filled with traps. Dozens of guards are stationed there.
These guards' abilities far surpass ordinary people, and they also possess heavy weaponry like firearms!
If we attack head-on, we'll face immense danger!"
"Everything carries risk. I'm not afraid of firearms!"
"Ling Tian, don't push yourself. We already know who the culprit is. We can slowly plan and find the right opportunity to kill Lange!
We can even leave Hell Paradise Island first and find help. I can even wait until I become stronger, and then we can get revenge.
Don't you have a saying in your Huaxia: 'A gentleman's revenge is never too late, even ten years later'?"
Ling Tian was touched. He knew Aurora was worried about his safety, and to ensure his safety, she was willing to postpone her revenge for her father.
Ling Tian patted Aurora's hand.
"Don't worry, Aurora, we don't need to wait that long. Since Cuyt Castle is so heavily guarded, why don't we just make them unable to stay in the castle?"
Hearing Ling Tian's words, Aurora became interested. "Tell me quickly, what do you plan to do?"
Just as Ling Tian was about to answer, the sound of car engines roared from outside, followed by the sound of footsteps.
"Bang!"
The main door of the residential house was roughly kicked open, and then more than a dozen people rushed up the stairs and burst onto the second floor.
Almost every door in every house was roughly kicked open, and then people entered, shining flashlights and searching thoroughly.
When these people arrived at the room where Ling Tian was hiding, they searched with their flashlights but found nothing before leaving dejectedly.
Half an hour later, Ling Tian and Aurora emerged from a corner of the house.
It turned out the island had fallen into chaos again. First, a patrol team was ambushed, and all five patrol members were killed.
Immediately after, someone discovered that the American delegation team had been completely wiped out.
Even Prometheus was now a pile of minced meat, beyond recognition!
Lange knew the strength of the people in the American team. Yet, such a powerful team had met such a fate. What kind of terrifying enemy could achieve this?
Moreover, this time, the threat was not confined to the free zone; the flames of war had spread to the order zone. Lange could now feel that his rule was precarious.
Therefore, Lange ordered all the guards in the free zone to withdraw to the order zone. All guards became tense, searching through the night to apprehend any suspicious individuals.
The residential house where Ling Tian and Aurora were hiding was once Aurora's residence, so it became a primary search target.
Fortunately, Ling Tian had an invisibility talisman. The two of them had been in the room, and the patrolling guards had passed by them without seeing them.
Listening to the receding sounds outside the house, Ling Tian hugged Aurora.
"Alright, we can have a good night's sleep. I guess that Lange won't be sleeping well tonight!"
The next morning, Aurora pestered Ling Tian, asking what his plan was.
Ling Tian smiled and took out a map of Hell Paradise Island and a document.
This information was obtained by Ling Tian from the Eastern Princess through Albatross.
Ling Tian handed the document to Aurora. When Aurora looked at it, it turned out to be information about the large cannons on the dock!
The information was very detailed, including the range of the cannons, their internal structure, and operating methods.
Ling Tian had discussed with the people on the ship. One of the evacuation plans was for Ling Tian to destroy these large cannons, and then the Eastern Princess would dock to pick him up.
"Ling Tian, what do these cannons have to do with our plan?"
Ling Tian smiled and said, "Aurora, look, the information shows that these twin-barreled 305mm heavy cannons have turrets that can rotate on tracks, with a horizontal firing range of up to 270 degrees!"
Ling Tian then took out the island map and used a pen to draw a straight line on it.
One of these four twin-barreled 305mm heavy cannons was in a straight line with Aurora's castle a few kilometers away.
There was nothing blocking the path between the turret and the castle; it was completely clear!
Ling Tian explained, "When I went to your father's reception room, I could see the island's scenery from the large window there.
My eyesight is still good, and I saw some buildings on the seaside dock. I had an impression of this thing, but I didn't know what it was.
It wasn't until later, when I saw this information, that I realized the building I saw at that time was actually a cannon!"
