"Baby, what are you doing here? I was so worried about you..."

A deep, resonant voice rang out, and before Zhou Siyu could react, Zhou Yu grabbed her in a hug.

"Baby, are you alright? Are you hurt anywhere?"

"I'm fine..." Zhou Siyu patted Zhou Yu's shoulder, her gaze constantly scanning the surroundings, but she still couldn't find that familiar figure.

He was getting anxious, and even his tone became colder: "Where's Yu Wei?"

“He went to Nan Yan City halfway.” Zuo Li took off his helmet, covered his mouth, and coughed a few times. “The situation is very complicated.”

"It's dangerous there..."

"What war isn't dangerous?" Zuo Li patted Zhou Siyu on the shoulder and comforted him, "It's okay, it's just a matter of losing an arm or a leg..."

Zhou Yu: "..."

Zhou Siyu: "?"

You might as well not offer any comfort.

“This is not the time to talk about these things.” Lin Gu strode over, took off his helmet and wiped his face. “News came from Yuwei that the rebel leader has planted a large number of bombs in the base, and it is said that there is also a deadly weapon.”

"bomb?"

The group stood there stunned. No wonder the defenses at K Base were so weak; they had planned to lure everyone in and then wipe them all out.

“Yes, I asked, but no one knows where he’s buried.” Lin Gu turned to look at Lakaya, frowning in confusion. “What’s he doing here?”

“We meet again, General Lin.” Lakaya leaned against the wall and struggled to his feet. “Don’t look at me, I don’t know where he planted the bomb either, but he gathered a lot of children on the bottom floor… right there in the laboratory… at the very bottom…”

"What’s wrong with you?"

Zhou Siyu stepped forward to help Lakaya sit down on the ground. Lakaya clutched his chest and convulsed, gasping for breath like a fish out of water.

“A...a restriction...he placed restrictions on all of us…” Lakaya cupped Zhou Siyu’s face in her hands, her red eyes fixed on him. “Look at me…I’ll take you…to find them…”

"Hey...you..."

The scene before Zhou Siyu's eyes changed instantly; the two were sitting and kneeling, but their eyes seemed glued together.

What are they doing?

Lin Gu scratched the back of his head, wanting to go up and separate the two, but was stopped by Zuo Li. "Mental invasion. I have read the information. The Lakaya clan has superpowers that can guide souls to travel through time and space, to the past, and to face the future."

"That powerful?" Lin Gu suddenly realized, "Just like Yu Wei did last time?"

“Yes.” Zuo Li nodded, then frowned. “However, mind control is usually carried out when the controlled person is mentally scattered and confused. Controlling them in a conscious state... there is a high probability that they will get lost in time and space.”

"That's very dangerous, we need to separate..."

“If you separate now, they’ll all become idiots.” Zuo Li sighed. “Lin Gu will lead a small team to search up there and protect them. The rest of you, follow me.”

"Teacher, you stay here, I'll go." Lin Gu put on his helmet and put his long sword into the armory. "I'm young and fast."

"You think I'm too old?" Zuo Li put on his helmet and punched Lin Gu on the shoulder. "You little brat, today I'll show you what it means to be old but still vigorous!"

"Teacher, you know that's not what I meant." Lin Gu spread his hands helplessly. "I'm young, and I should accumulate combat experience."

"There'll be plenty of time to practice later." Zuo Li smiled and patted Lin Gu on the shoulder. "Let this old man go and see the world first."

"teacher!"

"Lin Gu!"

"arrive!"

"Lead your squad to search the upper levels and protect the important prisoners. That's the order!"

"Obey orders!"

With tears in his eyes, Lin Gu saluted and stood there watching Zuo Li and Zhou Yu leave with their men.

The K base was thoroughly searched, but there was nothing there except for a group of elderly, weak, sick, and disabled people. All that remained was this heavily encrypted laboratory and a bunch of bombs whose whereabouts were unknown.

Zhou Siyu searched through Lakaya's memories for a long time and finally deduced the locations of the bombs based on fragmented clues.

"doctor!"

The moment she opened her eyes, Lakaya collapsed limply onto Zhou Siyu as if her bones had been removed. "Tell my brother... I'm sorry... and thank him."

"What's wrong?"

While calling for the medical team, Lin Gu ran towards the two of them, squatted down to check Rakaya's breathing and pulse, and took out a vial of cardiac stimulant from the medical supply and injected it into Rakaya's body.

“It’s alright, he’ll be alright…” Lin Gu picked up Lakaya and placed him on the stretcher, saying to the medical staff, “He has important clues on him. Wake him up, that’s an order!”

"yes!"

Medical staff hurriedly left with the stretcher. Lin Gu turned around and helped Zhou Siyu up from the ground. "You don't look well..."

"I'm fine." Zhou Siyu waved his hand, pulled up a map of the base, and drew several circles on it. "Lakaya wasn't involved in planting the bombs. I deduced a few locations based on his memories..."

As Zhou Siyu was drawing, she slowly stopped and exchanged a glance with Lin Gu, capturing his shock.

"Nurseroom!"

The two spoke in unison, and Lin Gu couldn't help but curse, "Damn it! He's a fucking inhuman lunatic!"

While cursing, Lin Gu mobilized the bomb disposal team to various possible locations.

"There's one more thing. The rebel leader has gathered a group of children and locked them in the deepest part of the laboratory. He has implanted an explosive chip in each of the children. Once these children die, the chip will explode... and the poison carried by the chip will spread rapidly..."
