For a moment of thrill, Luo Chen binds to a villain system. After finally finishing his role, he is told that he failed. To get the wish granted by the system and return home, Luo Chen starts over ...
Meanwhile, Luo Chen was working hard to prepare his plan.
He really needs to think carefully about how to deal with John and the others now. After all, he can't keep dragging this out. If he does, although he can completely eliminate them, he won't be able to provide support if something happens to Xiao Wu.
Luo Chen stayed in a room inside the villa, quietly contemplating his choice.
John and his group only number about twenty, but if I were to eliminate them now, it would prolong the delay, and I can't be too direct either; it's rather troublesome.
Luo Chen patted his forehead, indicating that he felt a little uncomfortable. This situation was indeed not good for him.
Moreover, he currently has no means of communication to contact Xiao Wu.
[Damn it, if I had known, I wouldn't have smashed the walkie-talkie. It's put me at a disadvantage now; I haven't received any news at all.]
Now, Luo Chen felt a pang of regret, remembering how he had thrown the walkie-talkie in his hand without a word on the balcony earlier.
If he hadn't thrown away the walkie-talkie, he might still be able to contact them now, but now...
"Damn it, I forgot, we were supposed to steal their stuff, we just needed to join one of their channels. How could I be so stupid?"
Luo Chen suddenly remembered this incident and was speechless with himself, so he prepared to fetch a communication device.
"But we still don't know their location, so we have to be careful."
Luo Chen got out of bed. That's right, even in such a tense situation, Luo Chen did not forget to give himself a good rest.
He then checked the weapons in his hand and examined the ammunition.
These guys are what keep me alive; I'd better take good care of you.
Looking at the gun in his hand, Luo Chen shook his head and exclaimed, "These are all my treasures. I can't leave them to others."
In modern warfare, you still need these things to survive.
Of course, after Luo Chen reached the Grandmaster level, firearms did weaken him in some aspects, but overall, Luo Chen still liked them quite a bit.
However, only when an individual's strength reaches a higher level will they become completely ineffective against certain firearms.
However, Luo Chen's abilities were weakened to some extent in this mercenary world. Otherwise, if things were as they were before, Luo Chen could have taken off right here.
"Forget it, there's no need to think about it too much now. I'll just focus on figuring out how to get some communication tools."
Realizing this, Luo Chen immediately left the villa.
The only thing that still puzzles Luo Chen is that he hasn't found any trace of John and the others yet, which he finds quite strange.
How can anyone be so funny?
They were even more puzzled. Why didn't John lead his men to surround and intercept them? And then he disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Doesn't it know that it's in this place?
This series of events left Luo Chen somewhat bewildered.
As Luo Chen slowly walked out of the villa, he noticed that there was no one in sight, and it seemed rather quiet.
In that moment of disorientation, Luo Chen felt as if he had transmigrated to a new world, a world that was extremely chaotic.
The scene before him was more like Luo Chen entering the apocalypse. Of course, this could also explain the current situation of Wu Hao's resting place.
"What's going on? Why haven't they come looking for me?"
Luo Chen frowned and carefully walked around the wall toward the four villas.
There was no sign of anyone outside, which made Luo Chen feel a little worried.
But the next moment, Luo Chen vaguely heard sounds coming from inside the villa.
"Hmm? They didn't leave? Let me think." Luo Chen's expression changed, and he suddenly understood why John and the others hadn't come after him after arriving here, but instead stayed inside.
The fourth villa was the one where Wu Hao had stayed before, which meant that John had already discovered Wu Hao's hideout.
"Damn, so that's how it is."
Luo Chen smiled faintly. "Why didn't you say so earlier, John? If you had, I would have come with you."
Although he didn't know what was going on inside, Luo Chen didn't choose to rush in directly at this moment.
Of course, they didn't choose to go up from the previous rooftop.
Instead, they waited for an opportunity; since they were already confirmed to be inside, they weren't in a hurry.
Afterwards, Luo Chen went to other villas, found the mercenary team members he had killed earlier, and took their equipment.
"Got it." Luo Chen looked at the communication device in his hand and couldn't help but feel happy.
Finally, he tuned into their channel, and then Luo Chen called out to Xiao Wu, "Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu, this is Brother Xiao, can you hear me now?"
Xiao Wu was in the middle of a fierce battle when suddenly the walkie-talkie on his shoulder lit up, followed by a voice.
"Is that Brother Xiao? It's Brother Xiao!" Xiao Wu exclaimed joyfully, quickly taking down the walkie-talkie and saying to Luo Chen, "Brother Xiao, is that you? We're currently fighting off the mercenaries on the other side, but I've already had Qi Yunlong take Mu Shanhai and the others away. How are you doing?"
Hearing the intermittent reply, Luo Chen confirmed that he could contact Xiao Wu.
"They encountered them and are fighting back?" Luo Chen instantly connected all the dots in his mind and understood Xiao Wu's choice.
Although he didn't quite agree, he knew that under those circumstances, Xiao Wu's decision was undoubtedly correct.
"Xiao Wu, how are you doing? Tell me as soon as possible. I'll bring people to find you after I've dealt with things here," Luo Chen continued.
"Brother Xiao, the situation is alright. We're currently at a stalemate, but the other side is too fierce. I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on. But don't worry, I'll rather die than let them get past here."
"By the way, Brother Xiao, Wu Hao is a complete bastard. He's not a trustworthy person at all. He actually abandoned us and ran away at this time."
Xiao Wu quickly told Luo Chen about Wu Hao's situation, making it clear to him that Wu Hao was no longer worthy of their trust.
There was no need to dwell on it any longer, and Luo Chen understood.
"Wu Hao is indeed untrustworthy, but if you dare to do anything reckless? Then I won't be polite to you."
"Xiao Wu, I understand. Your task now is to ensure your own safety and theirs. Do your best. I'll be there. Wait for me. As for Wu Hao, if you can, send someone to check on him."
"Ah, Brother Xiao, okay, I can't hear you very well, I understand, I will, I will hold on," Xiao Wu said while covering his ears.
Then he instructed everyone to handle the situation as quickly as possible.
Luo Chen, having gathered his equipment, headed towards Building Four.
At this point, he changed into the mercenary uniform of John's group.
Although there was blood on it, Luo Chen felt he had to try, so it didn't matter.
"Open the door, open the door."
The team members inside were very alert; how could someone knock on the door at this moment?
He then opened the window and saw Luo Chen, becoming somewhat wary.
"Who are you? What are you doing here? I didn't see anyone leave."
Luo Chen smiled faintly and said, "How could that be? I went out to use the restroom earlier, did you know? Damn it, let me in and sit for a while, my legs are numb."
The mercenary looked at him with suspicion, but finally let Luo Chen in.
Luo Chen couldn't help but admire his own abilities, realizing that he had managed to get in so easily.
His original plan was that if they didn't let him in, he would just take them down himself.
But it seems that it's no longer used.
Once inside, Luo Chen saw several chefs in the living room and immediately understood why he had heard moaning sounds earlier, since there weren't many women among these mercenaries.
Now that I think about it, it turns out that Wu Hao's previous woman was kept behind.
This was something Luo Chen hadn't expected; Wu Hao hadn't taken them with him.
That bastard, didn't he say he treated everyone at the rest stop the same?
Aside from the cook, there were only a dozen or so other mercenaries.
They were probably the most ordinary people in the team, but when Luo Chen looked up, he found that the people guarding the top were all different.
"It seems this group is John's elite." Luo Chen pulled his hat down low, then sat in a corner, thinking about how to infiltrate the ranks.
But at that moment, he suddenly heard a sound coming from upstairs.
"Damn it, there's even a monitoring room like this. No wonder they know everything about our previous actions. I'm going out for a drink of water."
Roy came out of the room, then stood on the balcony and pointed down, calling out, "Hey, you, bring some water up."
"Ah, me?" Luo Chen lowered his head slightly and pointed to himself in surprise.
"It's you, hurry up."
Luo Chen nodded slightly, then took a few bottles of water and walked up, a smile on his face.
I was still thinking about how to handle the current situation, but I never expected it to turn out like this. They actually made me deliver water?
Is there no water upstairs?
As soon as Luo Chen reached the top of the stairs, he froze.
Roy's words from earlier flashed through my mind: deliver water?
Wait a minute, although there's no water upstairs, their room happens to be Wu Hao's study.
The fact that they're inside directly illustrates the situation.
So, they've already discovered the surveillance room?
But there is plenty of water and food in the monitoring room, so why are they saying there is no water now?
A sudden thought made Luo Chen's eyes widen.
A strange thought suddenly popped into his head: Why should I be the one to deliver water?
Why did they point at me after I came in?
And he didn't even call my name? Is he unfamiliar with his teammates?
