There is no essential difference between a gun that dares not fire and a fire stick.
Zhuang Mian saw the hesitation of the two men, left his pistol to El, held the dagger in his hand and rushed forward.
El was still lying on the stairs, occasionally firing two bullets using the shooting method commonly seen in the African region of the other world to suppress the approaching gunman.
The overall quality of the two gunmen responsible for arson in the basement seemed to be very low. Although they were fighting, they were afraid of setting themselves on fire by shooting, so they just kept looking for cover to hide and had no courage to fight back.
It was not until Zhuang Mian was about to force them into the fire that the two men hesitantly released the safety and opened fire.
But it was too late.
After several collisions and gunshots, Zhuang Mian picked up two pistols from a pool of blood and quickly ran back to the stairs leading to the basement.
But she didn't have time to go up the stairs.
As soon as she turned around, she saw El running down the corner of the stairs with his head in his hands. A string of bullets hit the wall behind him, splashing a string of gray-white smoke.
Obviously, the staircase had been lost.
Now, the two were trapped in the basement, with at least five or six gunmen in front of them and a raging fire behind them. The atmosphere was tense in every sense.
The gunmen came to the corner of the stairs between the first floor and the basement and observed everything in the basement from above.
After seeing the two bodies, the leading gunman waved his hand and the six men stood still.
Then the three people in the front squatted down, and the three people in the back stood up. Six black gun muzzles were pointed at the basement below. If anyone showed his head, he would be shot into a sieve immediately.
Ai'er and Zhuang Mian hid behind two pillars in the basement respectively, watching the fire getting closer and closer in front of them, and for a moment they had no idea what to do.
Seeing the fire getting closer and closer, El decided to make a decision that went against his ancestors.
He looked at Zhuang Mian who was behind another pillar, and his tone suddenly became very calm and steady:
"Can you get their attention for a moment? Just a second or two."
Zhuang Mian was puzzled by this sudden question, but the other party's tone was calm and there was a hint of convincingness in it.
"It's okay, but you..."
“Do it now.”
El's tone suddenly became strong. Zhuang Mian gritted his teeth and planned to settle the score with this kid later.
She took a deep breath, stretched out the pistol from the end of the pillar, and fired two shots without even aiming.
Sure enough, the gunmen on the stairs all looked over here. At this time, Zhuang Mian retracted his pistol, rolled suddenly in the other direction, and left the cover of the pillar.
A series of gunshots rang out, but Zhuang Mian moved faster and had already hidden in a new shelter.
At this time, a head popped out from behind another pillar. He looked at the two gunmen standing on the far right, his hands slightly clenched to guide his abilities.
El had never tried to use [Approximate Exchange] in this way before, but there was no other way now. Either succeed or die.
His fists clenched slightly, as if he touched something beating.
“Bang!”
Feeling familiar, El clasped his hands together suddenly, and with a "snap" he retracted them behind the pillar.
The sudden applause made the Gunners look at each other in bewilderment, feeling as if there was a madman cheering for them below.
Even Zhuang Mian felt puzzled and looked at El with suspicion.
Just as they were about to maintain their formation and let the fire burn the two men to death, the two gunmen standing on the edge suddenly twitched, then fell down with their bodies tilted.
"What's going on?"
The leading gunman involuntarily turned his head to look at his two teammates, only to see them lying on the ground twitching constantly, as if they were in extreme pain.
The other gunmen also glanced over and were mesmerized by the miserable condition of the two men for several seconds.
They soon realized they had made a huge mistake, but it was too late.
With two crisp claps, the remaining four gunmen finally understood why their two teammates were in such pain.
"My chest and heart hurt so much!"
With these last words, the gunmen on the stairs died completely.
Hearing the sound of bodies falling to the ground, Zhuang Mian poked his head out from behind the pillar.
The body on the stairs was in a horrible state of death.
Her eyes moved between the bodies of the gunmen and El several times, and a terrible idea kept strengthening in her mind.
A father who died from organ trafficking, a boy who longs for revenge, a mysterious ability...
Finally, she looked at the skinny, harmless-looking gray-haired boy and gritted her teeth as she spoke the code name:
"Mind Flayer!"
El's face still had an expression of ignorance, and he looked so harmless as if he knew nothing.
Just as the two were on the verge of a fight, a barely audible cry for help came from the sea of fire:
"Help! Is there anyone who can save me?"
It was a shrill female voice. Zhuang Mian and Ai Er looked towards the fire scene at the same time. It was impossible to find any useful information there, but if they could save a living person...
After a brief thought, Zhuang Mian quickly wet his sleeves in the nearby bathroom, then rushed into the fire without hesitation.
Following the sound that sounded like a scream, Zhuang Mian quickly found the target in a room less than 20 meters away from the stairs.
This place was not too far from the exit, but the fire rushing straight up to the ceiling made it impossible for the woman to find a way out, and she could only let out desperate roars.
It was a young woman in a white coat, her hair had been burnt black and curled by the flames.
If it weren't for the fact that alcohol produces little black smoke when it burns, this man would have been choked to death by the thick smoke in the fire.
Zhuang Mian pulled up the other person's arm with all his strength, put the woman on his shoulders, and constantly determined the correct direction through El's shouting, and finally successfully rushed out of the fire.
The three of them walked over the bodies lying all over the place and came to the first floor. After making sure that they were no longer in danger, the frightened nurse fainted and could not be woken up no matter how hard she was shaken.
Now El was at a loss. His moral standards were not very high, and he helped Zhuang Mian save people purely for information.
Just when he was about to use physical methods to wake up the unconscious nurse, Zhuang Mian reached out to stop him.
Although the two are enemies in terms of status, at least they are now real allies.
Zhuang Mian hesitated for a moment, signaled El to be alert to the surroundings, and he placed his hand on the forehead of the unconscious nurse.
The ability [Chaos] is quietly activated.
Zhuang Mian's eyes went dark for a moment, then lit up again.
She was now in a laboratory that had not yet caught fire.
Looking around, Zhuang Mian easily found the nurse from before the fire. She quietly followed her and saw two people who appeared on the list of missing persons:
Black market doctors, Li Xia and Valk!
These two people are not dead!
Many things in the dream seemed unreasonable, like it was a performance where everyone was drunk.
Therefore, Zhuang Mian easily found out their next destination:
Laboratory No. 3.
