Chapter 224 Got a Problem with Me Carrying My Wife?

The two NPCs who had gathered to mock the imprisoned rogue suddenly spotted a participant approaching. They immediately adopted threatening postures and charged at him with loud growls!

“Ah! Someone’s here!” Whitney exclaimed.

Olivia instinctively glanced over to where Whitney was looking. A handsome yet unfamiliar face instantly emerged in her field of vision. She immediately guessed his identity, “Eugene Strauss?”

Alexander, disguised as Eugene and clad in a white tuxedo, was the first to arrive and rescue his teammate. Hearing Olivia’s voice, he turned to look at her directly. Locked in the cage, she looked like a caged rabbit, though her calm expression did not match her predicament.

“Ms. Carter, do you recognize me?” Alexander let out a smile for a fleeting moment.

Olivia was silent for a moment. “Nope. You’re the only face I don’t recognize. But I can’t deny you look very charming!”

“You’re not here just to get yourself captured, are you?” she asked, noticing that “Eugene” seemed oblivious to the two NPCs lunging at him. “If he gets caught, won’t his gold and magic tools get wiped out too?”

Alexander didn’t respond. As the two NPCs charged at him, he quickly retreated. When they rushed out of the hall, he darted back inside and shut the door behind him. The tail of his tuxedo flowed gracefully with his swiftness, exuding an otherworldly aura.

Olivia blinked. She remarked, “Not bad.”

“While I’m glad to hear that, now doesn’t seem like the time for compliments,” Alexander said as he unlocked Olivia’s cage.

The two NPCs outside had begun slamming against the hall’s doors.

Olivia praised her new teammate mentally for his quick thinking. “Untie my hands and feet first.”

The next moment, the hall doors were forced open by the NPCs.

Olivia was amazed. The NPCs were probably well-trained in the army!

“Looks like we’re out of time,” Alexander said, glancing at the two enemies storming in.

Before Olivia could speak, he suddenly scooped her up, her bound hands and feet dangling in his embrace.

Olivia could only say, “What?”

“Let’s get out first,” Alexander said earnestly before leaping onto the top of the cage with Olivia in his arms. As the NPCs closed in on them, he grabbed a chain hanging from the ceiling, yanking it hard and swinging it over their heads. With the NPCs defeated, they exited the hall effortlessly.

The man in the flowing white tuxedo gracefully departed the lair of the lost souls with his fair maiden.

Joycelyn and Whitney witnessed Olivia’s rescue, full of envy. Where could they get such a heroic and dashing teammate?

The livestream audience were flooding the chat, similarly amazed at Alexander’s heroics. Watching from the break room, Vance scoffed at the endless compliments in the livestream chat. “The best thing to come out of this show? ‘Knight in shining armor saves the damsel in distress’? The door clearly had a latch! My brother clearly pretended not to see it just so the NPC could rush in.”

He then rubbed his chin. “He just wanted to carry his wife! How did I not realize before how crafty my brother is? Did changing his face and name unleash his wild side?”

Hearing that the rogue was imprisoned, a bunch of NPCs had gathered around the hall, preparing to enter and mock her. Just as they were about to open the doors, they saw Olivia, who should’ve been locked up, being carried out by a very handsome man.

Olivia looked at the dumbfounded NPCs and said, “Ummm… this is awkward.”

Alexander raised an eyebrow.

Olivia pointed out, “You won’t outrun them if you keep on carrying me.”

Alexander shot back, “Do you need me to prove you wrong?”
