Now that it had been found, Xiao Jin made a decisive move.

On the bridge, the people who were struggling against the ferocious snow beasts were on the verge of despair.

Their breathing became rapid and heavy from the long and fierce battle, and their arms felt unusually heavy with each swing of their weapons.

Snowflakes danced wildly in the air, turning their palms red—some from the cold, others from blood. Their strength and will were fading away with each fallen comrade.

Just at this critical moment of life and death, a figure pierced the night sky and plummeted from the horizon.

Holding a long sword, Xiao Jin, like a silver lightning bolt, instantly plunged into the battlefield.

Her movements were swift and precise, her longsword drawing dazzling trajectories in the air. Each slash was accompanied by the mournful howl of a snow beast, and blood mingled with snowflakes, staining the snow-covered ground red.

The survivors who witnessed this scene were instantly replaced by a flame of hope, and their hearts pounded wildly.

Suddenly someone shouted, "Quick, let's all attack together!"

Those who were still alive rallied and, following Xiao Jin's lead, launched a counterattack against the snow beast.

Soon, with Xiao Jin's help, the battle came to an end, during which the system notifications in Xiao Jin's ears never stopped.

[Ding—Player has killed a level 1 snow beast, reward: 100 points and a set of cold-weather supplies]

[Ding—Player has killed a level 1 enemy...]

【bite……】

At the same time, the amount of cold-weather supplies in Xiao Jin's prop backpack visibly began to increase.

During this time, Xiao Jin also discovered a problem: the supplies dropped by the snow beasts would appear in his backpack if he killed them, but if the snow beasts were killed by the natives, they would drop directly on the ground.

Furthermore, some people have already started wondering why such a thing would appear!

"Clothes? Hat? What are all these things?"

"Cough cough cough! Could it be that we're getting equipment from defeating monsters?! Or is this not the apocalypse, but a game field created by an advanced civilization?!"

Xiao Jin stood aside and listened. These patients actually had the leisure to chat here. The corner of his mouth twitched slightly.

But you have to admit, he was right about some of it!

"Uh... bro..."

A man walked over, his face full of gratitude, seemingly wanting to thank Xiao Jin, but his words were interrupted.

"Jian Yiqiu will be here soon. The smell of blood here is too strong and will attract more snow beasts. You must leave immediately."

The man was surprised to hear Jian Yiqiu's name from Xiao Jin's mouth. He immediately realized that this man was the savior his boss had found, and he excitedly rubbed his hands together.

But then he remembered what Xiao Jin had just said, and his expression gradually darkened: "You're right, I'll set off with my men immediately."

Xiao Jin: "We can find more supplies if we run out. Leave the carriages open and take the injured people away first."

"Yes, yes, we have to take it with us."

The man then dragged his injured body and began directing those who were still able to move to clear the cargo bed and then load the injured people onto it.

Xiao Jin did not stand idly by during this process, but instead lent a hand and even took the time to feed the unconscious Cheng Ce a red pill.

This pill is enough to keep him alive.

As for why he wasn't given the nanotherapy injection, it's because the effect of the injection is too obvious and the quantity is too small. If it were given to Cheng Ce now, his severed limbs would regenerate immediately.

Let's wait until we're in a less crowded place before letting him use it!

Regardless of the severity of their injuries, the injured were given simple treatment and put into the vehicle. Those who could still drive were quickly driven away from the scene.

Xiao Jin didn't try to squeeze to the front; instead, she sat inside the carriage.

She took Cheng Ce's phone; the screen was cracked, and the call had ended ten minutes ago. She wondered if Cheng Ce had touched it.

To avoid worrying Jian Yiqiu and the other person, Xiao Jin dialed the phone back.

It was answered immediately after only a few rings.

"Hello? Cheng Ce?" came Shao Jing's anxious voice from inside.

“It’s me, he’s fine!” Xiao Jin replied calmly. “We’ve already headed to the prison ahead of you. Be careful, you two, there might be snow beasts appearing later.”

Upon hearing Xiao Jin's words, Jian Yiqiu quickly took the phone from Shao Jing's hand.

"How are you? Are you hurt?"

Sensing the worry in his voice, Xiao Jin moved the phone slightly away from her ear and raised an eyebrow.

"Do you think I'm that weak?!"

This time it was Jian Yiqiu's turn to be embarrassed. He coughed lightly, trying to cover it up.

"No, I didn't mean anything by it." Jian Yiqiu didn't ask any further questions and replied directly, "Alright, we'll be carrying guns and we'll be careful. Be careful yourself."

After saying that, Jian Yiqiu hung up the phone with a snap.

Shao Jing scratched his head in confusion.

………………

Not long after, Xiao Jin's convoy entered the exit of the cross-sea bridge.

From a distance, Xiao Jin had the car in front stop, and then used binoculars to observe the situation of the prison ahead.

Overall, it was very quiet inside, but the quietness was so extreme that it became somewhat eerie; there wasn't even a single soldier at the entrance.

Actually, this whole thing is Jian Yiqiu's fault.

Xiao Jin had left Jian Yiqiu with a few stun grenades when she left, but she never expected that Jian Yiqiu would take this opportunity to turn the entire No. 3 prison upside down.

The prison's defenses were overwhelmed by the prisoners, and with chaos erupting outside, the rebellion in Prison No. 3 went unchecked.

The heavy prisoners in the Black Tower were released; it was filled with vicious thugs.

After being released, these people banded together, seized weapons, killed prison guards, and then stole a car to escape. With people inside the prison either escaping or dying, there were no sentries left.

After looking around, Xiao Jin found that the gate was still exactly the same as the one he had smashed before.

Almost all the military vehicles parked outside are gone; those that remain are scrapped.

The prison was very quiet from a distance. Xiao Jin did not rush in, but planned to wait for Jian Yiqiu's arrival.

"Hmm~"

Just then, Cheng Ce, who had been unconscious, suddenly woke up.

He felt an intense pain the moment he moved his body slightly, a pain that almost made him scream.

As his consciousness gradually returned, Cheng Ce suddenly remembered what had happened before he lost consciousness.

Why am I still alive when I'm being attacked by monsters?

The pain in his leg was because the monster had torn it off. Judging by the timeline, even if the monster didn't eat him, he would die from excessive blood loss.

But this realistic tactile sensation made me realize that I was still alive.

Cheng Ce finally opened his eyes and saw a familiar carriage that he recognized.

Instinctively, Cheng Ce thought of Jian Yiqiu, who was rushing to the prison, and his breath caught in his throat. Yes, it must be Brother Jian who came to save him; he wasn't dead!

Cheng Ce felt a sudden surge of energy rise in his chest; after all, who wants to die when they're alive?

But the next second, Cheng Ce caught a glimpse of an unfamiliar figure out of the corner of his eye.
