After one night’s sleep, Su Wan wakes up to find she’s transmigrated into an apocalypse novel—as the vicious side character who starts off by stealing the female lead’s space, cruelly tortu...
"The exit is just ahead."
Lu Shiyan said calmly, "We took advantage of the five-second power vacuum when we came in. We won't have that chance if we go out now. Once we show our heads, we'll be discovered immediately."
He stopped and turned around. His eyes, surprisingly bright in the darkness, scanned everyone in the team.
"Everyone, check your weapons and ammunition. After you go out, listen to my signal and proceed according to the original plan."
"Yes!" A low and neat response sounded in the pipe.
Lu Shiyan's gaze finally fell on Su Wan. His eyes were deep and complicated. He didn't say anything, but just pulled her behind him again.
Su Wan understood what he meant.
"Get ready!" Lu Shiyan gave the order.
Xiao Han put away his playful smile, his face became solemn, and invisible wind began to gather in his palm. Li Kui, Jin Dongdong and others also raised their guns, their muscles tensed, ready to go.
"Three, two, one, go!"
Lu Shiyan grabbed the rusty iron fence with both hands, used his lightning ability to soften the metal instantly, silently tore a gap, and was the first to stick his head out to check the surroundings.
The dazzling searchlight suddenly pierced like a sword, illuminating their area as bright as day.
“Woo—woo—woo—”
Almost at the same time, the highest level A-level alarm sounded throughout the Dawn Base. The sharp and piercing beeping sound pierced the night sky, enough to cause cardiac arrest in anyone who heard it.
"Over there! Exhaust vent number three in the east area!"
"Quick! Surround them!"
"Level A alert! The commander's daughter has been kidnapped!"
Countless footsteps came from all directions, and the beams of light from the searchlights crisscrossed wildly, locking onto more than a dozen of them.
Dozens of black gun muzzles were pointed at them from behind various bunkers, flashing the cold light of death.
They were like trapped animals in a trap and were surrounded in an instant.
At this tense moment, a heart-wrenching roar pierced through all the noise.
"Wanwan!"
Su Wan's body stiffened and he looked in the direction of the voice.
The crowd made way for a path, and Su Zhengyan, surrounded by a team of personal guards, stumbled forward.
He was still wearing his nightgown, his hair was disheveled, and his usually dignified face was now filled with fear, rage, and unconcealable heartache.
His eyes were fixed on Su Wan. When he saw that Su Wan was standing there unharmed, even protected by Lu Shiyan, his worry instantly turned into deeper confusion and pain.
"Wanwan! Come here! Come to daddy!"
Su Zhengyan stretched out his hand to her, his voice trembling, "Tell Dad, did he force you to do that? Don't be afraid, Dad is here, no one can hurt you!"
The word "Dad" instantly made Su Wan's eyes red.
She bit her lower lip hard and tasted blood. Tears welled up in her eyes, blurring her vision, but she still shook her head firmly.
[Dad, I’m sorry…]
The baby seemed to sense her mood swings and moved gently in her belly.
"Dad... I'm sorry..." Su Wan's voice was choked with sobs and she could hardly speak. Every word seemed to be squeezed out from the bottom of her heart. "I can't bear to leave you, but I have a hunch that if I don't leave with Lu Shiyan, I will definitely regret it..."
These words, like a heavy hammer, hit Su Zhengyan's heart hard.
He staggered and almost fell, and the guard beside him quickly supported him.
"Why!" He couldn't understand, "This is your home! For this man, you don't even want your father?"
Su Wan shed tears, "Dad, if you really love me, why can't you try to understand my choice? Why do you have to make me choose between you and him?"
She even felt like a rebellious girl for love.
At this moment, another figure hurried over. It was Yan Shaoyou who had returned.
When he saw Lu Shiyan and Su Wanshi who were surrounded, a hint of relief flashed in his eyes as if his prey had been caught.
But when he saw the tears of despair on Su Wan's face, he clenched his fists, his knuckles turning white from the force. That usually gentle face was now distorted terribly, with hatred and unwillingness burning in his eyes.
"Lu Shiyan!" Yan Shaoyou stared at the man who was protecting Su Wan behind him, "You despicable bastard! What did you do to Wan Wan!"
Lu Shiyan chuckled, his laughter full of contempt and disdain. He tightened his arm around Su Wan's shoulders, and with a gesture of claiming sovereignty, he brought her deeper into his circle of protection.
"What did I do?" Lu Shiyan's eyes met Yan Shaoyou's, like two unsheathed swords clashing in the air, "I just came to take my woman and my child home."
"She is not yours!" Yan Shaoyou was completely enraged, his eyes were red, and the aura around him suddenly changed.
An invisible, cold and strange force suddenly burst out from him and surged towards Lu Shiyan like a tide!
Mental attack!
Lu Shiyan felt his brain suddenly sink, and everything in front of him began to distort and blur. Countless noises and illusions grew wildly in his mind, as if countless hands were tearing at his sanity.
"Wanwan, come here." Yan Shaoyou continued to attack Lu Shiyan while reaching out to Su Wan. His voice returned to its usual gentleness, but underneath that gentleness was a chilling paranoia. "Don't be afraid, I'll take you home. It's too dangerous here."
Su Wan saw that Lu Shiyan's face turned pale instantly, veins bulged on his forehead, and his body shook slightly. It was obvious that he was in great pain.
However, just when Yan Shaoyou thought he had won, Lu Shiyan suddenly raised his head.
In those deep eyes, instead of being controlled and confused, two clusters of golden flames ignited, which were the light of lightning and rage intertwined!
"Your little trick..." Lu Shiyan's mouth curled up into a bloodthirsty sneer, and the lightning power in his body exploded. The powerful electric current instantly traveled through his body, using the most explosive way to dispel all the mental power that invaded his mind, "...It's not enough!"
Before he finished speaking, he quickly pulled out a flare from his waist and shot a green light into the sky.
Bang!
The crisp sound was unusually clear in the chaotic battlefield.
This is the signal!
At the moment when the fingers snapped——
"Bang!"
In the distance, on the tallest observation tower in the base, a most powerful searchlight exploded, sending sparks flying.
Then, there was another light sound of a sniper rifle.
"Bang!"
Another searchlight went out.
Then the third one, the fourth one...
The continuous gunshots were like the call of the god of death. A'mo and the snipers he led opened fire simultaneously at the thirteen preset sniper points.
Every bullet accurately found its target - the sensor of the automatic defense turret, the machine gunner at the firing point, the commander's walkie-talkie...
The base's defense system was torn open one after another in just a few seconds.
At the same time, a deafening explosion suddenly came from the direction of the armory on the other side of the base!
Boom——!
The flames shot up into the sky, dyeing half of the night sky red. That was the assault team led by Li Kui and Jin Dongdong. They did not choose to defend, but took the initiative to attack, using the most direct method to attract most of the troops in the base.
The entire Dawn Base was in complete chaos!
"Protect the Commander!"
"Enemy attack! It's an all-out assault!"
Although Su Zhengyan was shocked, his military instinct made him calm down quickly: "This is a feint to the east and attack in the west! Their real goal is not to break through head-on, but to evacuate in the chaos! Immediately mobilize the reserve troops to block all entrances and exits!"
"Follow me!" Lu Shiyan no longer wanted to fight, and pulled Su Wan to rush towards the gap cleared by the sniper.
"Don't even think about it!" Yan Shaoyou roared and pounced on him again. This time, he gave up the long-range mental attack and chose close combat. He wanted to keep Su Wan at all costs.
The two men instantly engaged in a fight. Lightning and invisible spiritual power collided fiercely, making a sizzling sound. Fists and feet clashed, and every collision was fierce and fierce, with a determination to fight to the death.
Su Wan was protected by Xiao Han behind him and watched everything.
In the distance there were flames rising into the sky and dense gunfire. In front of her were two men fighting for her. Not far away was her father, his face filled with pain and disappointment.
"stop!"
