Suddenly, a loud crash of metal breaking echoed from ahead, and a section of pipe crashed down. Fei Shuwen abruptly stopped, looking down at the raging inferno dozens of meters below, cold sweat pouring down his face. He unbuckled his belt, tied one end to the pipe support, took a deep breath, and slid down the belt to a narrow ventilation opening below.

When he finally crawled out of the ventilation shaft, he found himself in the ruins on the outskirts of the base. The fuel depot in the distance was still burning, and the towering flames illuminated his pale face.

Fei Shuwen staggered to his feet and ran towards the sea. He knew that was the only place where he could possibly reunite with Chang Yin and Tang Shengkai. If Old Tang and the battalion commander were behind this, then the safest place was the seaside.

He wasn't worried at all that they wouldn't be able to cross such a long distance; he knew their strength. Even he, as a political commissar, would have limited skills if he hadn't developed some internal energy.

On Tang Yue's side, Zhang Ming maintained a faint smile. If Zhang Ming hadn't remained silent while Tang Yue spoke, she wouldn't have believed that he was hard of hearing.

Tang Yue tugged at Zhang Ming's sleeve helplessly, and Zhang Ming turned to look at Tang Yue. Tang Yue pointed to her ear, "How is it?"

Tang Yue deliberately spoke very loudly. Zhang Ming understood Tang Yue's lip movements, and at the same time, he seemed to hear a sound. However, the sound made his ears hurt.

"Company Commander Tang, it's alright. He must have been shaken by the tremor. We're quite far from there, I think he'll be fine after a bit of recovery." Zhang Ming was in a good mood, seemingly unaffected by his hearing loss.

Tang Yue thought this kid was pretty carefree. However, Tang Yue felt that this was a waste of time. Now was the best time to attack. Zhang Ming was quite useful. Tang Yue flicked two balls of gentle spiritual energy directly at Zhang Ming's ears.

Zhang Ming's ears weren't very sensitive, but he could still feel two cool sensations slowly swirling around his eardrums. The feeling, as if his ears were being repaired, was wonderful. A moment later, he heard the faint sound of wind around him.

Moreover, the pain in his ear was gradually disappearing. "Huh?" Zhang Ming turned around in surprise to look at Tang Yue, "Company Commander Tang, is that you?"

Tang Yue raised an eyebrow. This guy was really smart. No wonder the battalion commander thought highly of him.

Before she could answer, the sound of a car came from behind them. The two turned around to look.
