’Then what can you do...’
Duan Tie seized the opportunity,
’With this thing, we can do it ourselves, and bring it out.
I’ll use the Primordial Spirit Method to make an EMP, burn out the surveillance on the helmets.’
Huh? Bring out... No, wait, there’s surveillance on the helmets? And you can make an EMP with the Primordial Spirit Method??
’Now there’s smoke in the sky, the satellite can’t see, Zeng Wu also headed to H8.
Throw everything to the northwest, across the river, I’ll calculate the landing coordinates.’
’I’ll have the Blood Puppet retrieve it.’
Chen Xuantian hesitated for a second.
’What if they don’t let us go home again...’
Chen Xuantian gritted his teeth and smashed his helmet.
So, Chen Xuantian threw the grenade into the warehouse, shouldered the antenna equipment box, jumped out of the pit, and amidst the ’boom’ explosion sound, threw the antenna across the river, far into the forest.
Zeng Wu, "What sound!"
Duan Tie, "Sounds of explosion, maybe some gunpowder depot blew up."
Jia Ru, "Report, everything is normal."
Zeng Wu, "Zeng Liu! Zeng Liu! Why aren’t you speaking!"
Duan Tie, "No problem, I saw him, seems like the helmet is broken. Sigh, is that crappy gear you built reliable? Did someone embezzle the development funds?"
Zeng Wu, "Enough! Mission accomplished, retreat as planned!"
So the four quickly headed to H8, jumping one by one across the river at the narrowest crossing, dashed into the forest, and sped northeast for ten kilometers to reach Alpha Point for evacuation.
Duan Tie was the first to complain again,
"I thought it would at least be a helicopter..."
Zeng Wu shouldered him aside and unveiled a camouflage cover, revealing an off-road vehicle,
"Get in, keep heading north, through the forest, across the border."
Alright, then continue trekking through mountains and waters.
So the four of them got in the car, Jia Ru driving, Duan Tie in the passenger seat, Chen Xuantian and Zeng Wu on alert in the back seat.
Zeng Wu stared at them coldly,
"What are you guys up to."
Duan Tie glanced at her through the rearview mirror, grinned and said,
"Any orders, Captain."
Zeng Wu stared back without backing down,
"Don’t take me for a fool! What do you mean by forming small cliques to ostracize me!"
Duan Tie laughed and spread his hands,
"You’re overthinking, we never ostracized you."
Zeng Wu smirked coldly, suddenly raised her gun to his head, slowly glanced over the three, finally staring at Chen Xuantian,
"Then what’s with this killer look you’re giving now! So quick to join forces, huh! All so loyal, aren’t you!"
Chen Xuantian and Jia Ru stayed silent, Duan Tie sighed,
"Oh Captain, would comrades point guns at their mates? Isn’t it you who doesn’t want to treat us as brothers?"
"Ha! Gou Qian’yi! You’re really out of your mind!"
Zeng Wu laughed loudly,
"Let me remind you! We’re not brothers! We’re soldiers! Our duty is to follow orders!
The army is not your place for small cliques and forming factions!
This is my last warning! Stop your brotherly act! Don’t think I won’t pull the trigger!"
Duan Tie spread his hands, indicating he was speechless, ’whatever’.
Jia Ru quietly continued driving.
Chen Xuantian raised a hand to disarm Zeng Wu’s rifle and took it away; she didn’t resist, and of course, hadn’t disengaged the safety, it was just an abrupt test.
"Calm down, control your emotions, don’t get agitated."
Chen Xuantian removed the magazine, speaking slowly,
"I know you’re all very scared, having to lie in coffins every day, suffering nightmares, afraid you won’t wake up if you close your eyes, afraid you’ll fall into the Demon Cave when you open them. Being tossed back and forth every day, either falling into nightmares or thrown onto the battlefield, it’s no wonder you feel immense pressure and resentment.
But fear doesn’t solve problems, neither does escape, and since I’m strong enough to handle most things, you can rely on me to support and help solve your problems.
But ultimately, the Heart Demon challenge is yours to face, others can’t help. If you don’t have the courage to confront it, you’ll be stuck in place for life."
Chen Xuantian wasn’t sure if he’d convinced any of them.
Truth be told, Zeng Wu wasn’t wrong, the Cangtian Team 3, these superhumans, controlling nuclear bombs, how can they not be managed with caution? How could they be allowed to act at will?
But on the other hand, given the brazen behavior of the Divine Sect members, it’s already polite that they’re willing to sit and complain with you. If truly provoked, well, there’s no need to talk too much about their original business.
Of course, Chen Xuantian could also handle it Tie Dan style, draw his sword and kill everyone. Saves the constant bickering and annoyance, but he feels there’s still a part of Chen Xuantian in his self-awareness, so he chooses to persuade.
After all, these quantum communication and string overlapping technologies are indeed unprecedented.
Fang Su Fifth Zeng, Gou Qian’yi, Cong Guanyi
Yao Honglei, Duan Tie, Jia Ru
Now, who are they really?
In their self-awareness, are they still human?
Underneath this human shell, what have they become now?
Chen Xuantian wasn’t sure; at times, he truly felt he and Tie Dan were completely different people...
Otherwise, how could that guy have such good luck in love while he didn’t encounter any!
Darn it, it’s not the lack but the inequality that worries people! Heavens! Eggs!
So everyone harbored their own thoughts, using the forest as cover, successfully crossed the border, and rendezvoused with the support troops.
Of course, it wasn’t as easy-going as it seemed.
