"Don't be afraid." Wen Qing walked to Lu Nange's side and gently added, looking at everyone, "We mean what we say."
Lu Nange looked around at everyone one last time: "After we leave, the exit will be completely sealed off."
No one can get in unless we open it from the outside. Remember, we will get you out of here alive. These supplies are enough to last a long time.
When the last team member withdrew from the shield, the earth shield and the gold shield closed tightly together.
The inside and outside worlds suddenly became two separate worlds...
Inside the shield, warm light flowed quietly.
No one touched the food, and no one brought out the stools.
The women maintained a self-protective posture, huddled in various corners.
Some buried their faces in their knees, their thin shoulders trembling slightly; others looked up at the patch of night sky cut into squares outside the ventilation shaft, their eyes vacant, as if trying to confirm through this small space that they had truly gained freedom.
In the silence, only the faint sound of breathing could be heard.
Lu Nange glanced one last time at the earthen shield that blended seamlessly with its surroundings, lightly touching its rough surface with her fingertip to confirm that it was flawless.
"Let's go! Straight to the lab."
The team immediately sprang into action, no longer concealing their tracks, and cut straight into the area where the searchlights had created a play of light and shadow.
They stopped detouring and dodging, and swaggered along the main road toward the core area of the Rock Base.
The patrol teams they encountered along the way were instantly dealt with by the fifty Flameheart ability users who followed them like ghosts, before they even had a chance to sound an alarm.
Xie Lin'an couldn't contain his excitement: [Hiding and huddling all the way here! Finally, it's time for the main course!]
The closer you get to the center, the denser the lights become, and the wider the view becomes.
Lu Nange suddenly raised her hand, and the entire group instantly froze at the edge of the shadows in an alleyway.
"We can't go any further. The outpost has a view of the entire area ahead. If we don't find the lab, we'll be exposed."
She turned her head to look at her companions beside her: "You guys wait here, I'll go and take care of the people on the watchtower."
Shi Xu immediately stepped forward: "Shall I go with you?"
“No need,” Lu Nange interrupted him, pointing to the teaching building on the side.
"The first and second classrooms are empty right now! Take them to the first classroom and wait for me. Keep your mental energy constantly alert to avoid any accidents!"
Don't worry, I've got Zhizhi and Gangzi with me, everything will be fine!
Lu Beiye: "Sister, be careful!"
Chi Yanzhou, Lu Xici, and the others almost simultaneously exclaimed, "Be careful!"
Lu Nange nodded, her gaze falling on the brightly colored macaw on Lu Xici's shoulder, which was restlessly twisting its neck.
She pinched Gangzi's beak, which was about to open: "Shh, don't shout, don't make a sound... take me flying around the rock once."
Gangzi shook its feathers in dissatisfaction, its body grew larger, and it obediently spread its wings and landed beside Lu Nange.
