Divorced But Not Defeated The Military Queen’s Rise Again novel Chapter 156

Julius watched Quinn’s figure intently. Even in the midst of their game, he didn’t want to be separated

from her.

If there was one regret that lingered in his heart, it was that he hadn’t enlisted when she had. He hadn’t been able to stand alongside her as a comrade–in–arms, to be someone she could rely on when danger loomed. But he hoped that at least in the game, he could do just that.

Julius rushed forward, while enemies continuously surrounded him.

Quinn called out to Laura, “You guys go ahead and get the mission done! I’ll hold them back!”

After all, she didn’t have any missions to complete, so it didn’t matter if she ended up in a draw with those enemy players in the game.

“Okay!” Laura was very decisive. While Quinn was holding off the enemy’s attack, she and her three teammates bypassed the opponent’s line of fire and headed straight for their mission objective.

In the heat of the moment, Quinn went all out. Alone, she faced off against a horde of enemy players, unleashing a torrent of attacks.

Those players went on the offensive, launching bullets and grenades relentlessly. It was as if they’d woven a net of fire that was closing in on Quinn.

She was struggling to buy time, and finally, she heard Laura’s voice. “All right, mission accomplished!”

Quinn heaved a sigh of relief, realizing that the ammunition she brought wouldn’t last much longer. It seemed inevitable that she and her enemy players would end up destroying each other. However, out of the blue, the enemy players near her started falling one by one.

Quinn was stunned. Almost immediately, she heard gasps of surprise from Laura and the other three

teammates.

“Quinnie, is Julius really a newbie who’s never played this game before?”

“Wow, that’s pretty intense!”

“This guy’s not even human!”

Quinn looked toward Julius, noticing he was handling the gun she had previously given him, designed for beginners. He was firing it off, shot by shot.

The hits were incredibly accurate, all striking critical spots.

She had seen him shoot at the range before and knew he was an excellent marksman. But this was their first time playing this sort of game. The fact that he could attack so fiercely genuinely took her by surprise.

When the surroundings were finally clear of adversaries, Quinn stared at her phone screen. Julius was controlling his avatar, slowly approaching her in the game. Then, his voice filled her ears.

“Even in the game, I don’t want anything to happen to you.”

In an instant, Quinn felt her heart give a fierce thump.

Quinn remained silent. Well, to be precise, we were checking out handsome men at the bar back then. Laura had even invited several well–known young men from the bar to join us in the private room for drinks and games.

Of course, it was Laura who was drinking and playing drinking games. I merely observed from the sidelines.

“I guess you were,” Julius muttered, seeing that Quinn was silent. “Did someone catch your eye back then? Were those men more attractive than me?”
