this……

An indescribable, eerie feeling arose in the minds of Qi Lin and Officer Wang Yuan. This feeling also clearly emerged amidst the joy of victory and the prospect of a better life, as well as their admiration for Wang Ji.

Therefore, Qi Lin was slightly taken aback.

On the other side, the artillery fire finally resumed, and stray bullets and missiles began to bombard the large, bowed mech monster. Not far away, many Chinese soldiers and vehicles were also heading towards Qi Lin and the others.

Clearly, the officers on the battlefield quickly figured out who was responsible for dealing with the monster and whether they were friend or foe.

"I'm here to help you up, young man! Thank you so much! You saved so many of us! You're truly our hero!"

A soldier speaking with a non-standard Mandarin accent stepped forward with gratitude and admiration to help Wang Ji up; he was one of the people Wang Ji had saved before.

"You seem to be holding up, but you should get medical attention soon!"

He was very enthusiastic and reacted the fastest.

But a strange thing happened: he grabbed Wang Ji by the armpits and arms, but no matter what he did, he couldn't lift Wang Ji, who was kneeling on the ground.

He seemed glued to the ground, like a huge, heavy iron block, unshakeable.

Wang Ji also stepped back, remaining in front of Qi Lin, and began swaying from side to side, his head and buttocks bobbing wildly. A voice came from him: "Help me!"

I don't know why... it was a woman's voice, and it even sounded somewhat familiar.

"Help me!"

Qi Lin's eyes widened in shock, and a feeling of sudden enlightenment enveloped her entire being!

She felt...

It should be...

She took a deep breath, not daring to delay any longer, squatted down, bent over, knelt on one knee, and reached out her left hand to touch Wang Ji's hand that was supporting her on the ground.

Then, wait quietly.

To everyone's surprise, Wang Ji, who had been somewhat anxious, quieted down and stopped fidgeting, kneeling there silently.

"This... help him up quickly!" A young soldier next to him scratched his head.

Officer Wang Yuan looked on with a sense of existential skepticism, simply waving his hand to stop him without saying anything.

Qi Lin remained in that half-kneeling position, while Wang Ji knelt on the ground, clutching his stomach, remaining quiet.

Ten seconds later...

"You don't have a flare gun, do you?"

Qi Lin looked at Wang Ji with a complicated expression. He immediately started drinking Pepsi after getting up, still squatting while drinking, and even turning around while squatting and standing up...

It seems like he's checking his surroundings for any danger... His skills aren't great, but he's learned these things quite well.

She asked.

As for Wang Ji's ability to retrieve objects out of thin air as if he had a legendary storage ring, she wasn't particularly surprised... He already had superpowers, so this seemed quite reasonable.

Anyway, she wouldn't understand.

Wang Ji was busy drinking Pepsi, squatting and turning around, so he didn't have time to answer her.

More and more soldiers gathered around, and after learning the situation, they all felt a deep respect for the young boy in the center... But for some reason, Qi Lin felt so embarrassed for Wang Ji that she could dig her toes out of her skin.

People without social anxiety probably wouldn't have the nerve to make such a cringeworthy gesture in front of so many people...

"Hiccup~ There's no flare gun, and a solo kill doesn't count as a chicken dinner."

After downing three bottles of cola, Wang Ji burped, then stood up to answer Qi Lin's question.

"What about bandages and first-aid kits?"

"It's not online yet, and it might not be very user-friendly... Things in real life are always different, like first aid kits." Wang Ji's matter-of-fact manner left Qi Lin speechless.

Anyone who looks at it will feel a strange sense of unease, leaving them speechless.

However, Qi Lin quickly smiled and took the initiative to hug him: "Thank you for saving me, my colleagues, thank you for saving so many of us."

As for the matter of superpowers, she didn't ask any tactless questions.

It was still so soft and fragrant. Wang Ji was taken aback for a moment, then looked at Qi Lin who had let go of his hand and couldn't help but scratch his head and chuckle.

Qi Lin couldn't help but smile when she saw this. She looked quite mature and tall, but she was still a child at heart.

child……

It's just a little too small, otherwise...

Qi Lin blushed almost imperceptibly, barely noticeable in the darkness.

She knew her heart was racing, but she didn't know if it was from the tension of surviving a close call, or...

"Hello! Zhang Youdan, captain of the Wild Wolf Commando Team, on behalf of all those who participated in the battle and those who sacrificed their lives, expresses my heartfelt gratitude to you!"

A fully armed special forces soldier approached, saluted Wang Ji with a solemn expression, and thanked him loudly.

"Salute!" he shouted.

The twenty-odd soldiers who arrived stood at attention and saluted in unison, their faces showing respect.

"Uh... everyone, please don't be so polite."

Wang Ji raised his hand slightly, giving a somewhat awkward salute.

Upon seeing this, a glint of light flashed in Zhang Youdan's bright tiger eyes, and he instantly made a judgment.

"I'll go check on that big robot first. If your weapons can't break through its defenses, you won't be able to kill it anytime soon."

If it recovers after a long time, I might have to do it all over again.

Wang Ji wasn't unaware of the other party's thoughts. In fact, he had always been very perceptive, a sensitivity honed from his childhood experiences, not to mention that he was no longer an ordinary person.

The other party could tell at a glance from his salute that he wasn't from a government department, which didn't surprise him, nor did he care at the moment.

From the moment he arrived here and had no choice but to take action without fear of being exposed, he had already anticipated some consequences, though it was hard to say whether they would be good or bad.
