Cang Yu wanted to say something more, but seeing Lin Yue's unusually determined look, he felt that anything he said would be superfluous. Besides, he really couldn't always be by her side to protect her; there would always be times when he couldn't be there, such as this time when he had to leave.
"Then be careful."
"Enough about me, what about you? Haven't you found an opportunity yet?" Lin Yue asked.
Could it be that their weapons were confiscated when they came up, so they couldn't move?
But given Cang Yu's crazy nature, he shouldn't have been unable to find an opportunity. He was injured while chasing Cen Shen in Jinglan Community before, so he can't be afraid of dying now.
Lin Yue was unaware of the truth: Cang Yu was indeed afraid of death.
“The two men beside me, Cang Jun and Cang Jue, died for me in their past lives. I don’t want them to suffer the same fate in this life. Also, I saw some of my old brothers locked up in the base. They were the ones who risked their lives to follow me in my past life. I want to try and see if I can rescue them.”
In his past life, he trusted Cen Shen too much and never thought that he would betray him. So much so that when Cen Shen suddenly killed him in order to seize power, he was completely unprepared.
The two were reborn at the same time in this life, but Cen Shen was a little earlier than him. At that time, most of the people in the organization were under Cen Shen's control. He escaped with Cang Jun and Cang Jue, but he was unable to save them.
He thought they were all dead, but he never expected that they were all still alive.
"So that's how it is." Lin Yue suddenly realized.
She doesn't have any close friends, but if her parents were still alive and she were locked up here, she would definitely be hesitant and timid.
“Lin Yue, there’s another very important reason, because I want to go back to you alive.” Cang Yu looked intently at Lin Yue.
Lin Yue was a little confused by the look.
She was really struggling to handle Cang Yu now. His aloofness from before had completely changed in front of her. He was flirting with her like this, and she was even blushing a little.
However, the two of them didn't have any special emotional exchanges when they were together. They either fought or ate every day, and there wasn't even a flirtatious glance between them. The physical contact from fighting certainly didn't count.
Therefore, she had no idea how Cang Yu had fallen in love with her.
"Ahem!" Lin Yue cleared her throat softly. "Um, don't you want to go out and take a look?"
Didn't we say we were going to gather?
"No need. I just went hunting wild boar last night. No one will bother me at this time."
"Knock knock knock!"
Before Cang Yu could finish speaking, a loud knocking sounded on the door, followed by shouts from outside.
"Big brother, big brother, Deputy Base Commander Xu is looking for you. He wants you to come up to the sixth floor." Cang Jun shouted loudly, and the whole floor could probably hear him clearly.
Lin Yue raised an eyebrow and looked at Cang Yu.
Who said no one would bother him? Well, here they are.
Cang Yu wanted to beat up Cang Jun.
"Go ahead! I've rested enough. I'll just wander around the base and get familiar with the environment. There won't be any problems." Lin Yue's voice was even softer.
"Okay! Be careful!" Cang Yu instructed, then took out a small paper bag from under the bed. "Here's a room key for you. Come in when you get back. I've modified the sensor at the door; there's no sound when you swipe the card."
The Qinglong base also did not experience a power outage, as it has a large generator, so the room cards were not invalidated.
"Okay!" Lin Yue replied.
Whether she can actually use it is another matter. She has a space where she can go anywhere to rest. As long as the invisibility cloak's cooldown time is over, she can put it back on and wander around the base.
Cang Yu put on the fake face and left the room.
Lin Yue was alone in her room, and thinking that she still had time, she went back into her spatial dimension.
As soon as she returned to the space, the wolf pounced on her, pestering her to take it out.
It heard the sound of its human scooper.
"Good boy, you can't go out yet." Lin Yue patted its head.
After calming the two wolves down and watering the plants with Kongling for a while, she left the space and stood in front of the window with the curtains drawn to observe the people gathering below.
Upon closer inspection, she indeed saw three new familiar faces: one man and two women, bringing the total to eight, including the previous five.
Now, she has reason to suspect that the group of people in her dream might all be in the Azure Dragon Base, but she doesn't know where that warehouse is. If she knew where it was, she would definitely burn it down.
After watching for a while and not seeing any new faces, Lin Yue stopped watching.
After waiting in the room for another half hour, Cang Yu was finally released. Lin Yue learned about the layout of the Azure Dragon Base from him, then returned to her space to rest until the afternoon, and then began to wander around the Azure Dragon Base.
It's just that the invisibility time is limited, so this stroll is a bit rushed.
After three consecutive days, Lin Yue finally figured out the layout of the Azure Dragon Base, just as Cang Yu had told her.
The original hotel was built against the cliff, only half a meter away from the edge. A 24-centimeter-thick wall was built along the edge of the cliff, and the remaining distance was so small that only someone as thin as a stick could pass through the gap in the wall behind it.
Four large warehouse-like factory buildings were added to the left and right sides of the hotel after the apocalypse.
The right side contained a large amount of supplies and was guarded; the left side housed some low-ranking henchmen and men recruited from outside.
The hotel has eight floors. The first floor is where Cang Yu wanted to save people. They are all chained up like dogs.
There are dozens of rooms on the second floor, and two women are locked in each room.
When Lin Yue saw those women, she felt that these men were all boars who couldn't live without women. No matter what power they were in, they all kept women for their own amusement.
The third floor is for storing warm clothing, the fourth floor is a banquet hall, the fifth to seventh floors are for living quarters, and the eighth floor is for storing weapons.
Cang Yu and his two companions lived on the fifth floor, while Cen Shen and three other deputy base commanders lived on the seventh floor. The other floors housed various "officials" of different ranks.
She specifically looked outside Cen Shen's room, and the scene was so grand that even emperors in ancient times probably didn't have such an extravagant display.
All things considered, the Azure Dragon Base does indeed have a large number of people, conservatively estimated at seven or eight hundred, if not more. Cang Yu should indeed be more cautious if he wants to rescue them.
She found all fourteen people from her dream—eleven men and three women—all in this base, though not brought by Cen Shen, but joined later.
The people she found seemed to be doing quite well; they were all staying in a hotel, on the fifth and sixth floors respectively—six on the fifth and eight on the sixth. She had already figured out their room numbers.
However, going from room to room is obviously not appropriate. Moreover, if someone of a certain status moves, the higher-ups at the base will definitely know, and they will be on guard. Not only will it be difficult for Cang Yu to act, but it will also be inconvenient for her. She can only wait for an opportunity when they are all gathered together to take them all down at once.
This opportunity was Cang Yu's victory celebration banquet.
However, for some reason, Cang Yu's celebration banquet was postponed for another five days. Lin Yue didn't want to go shopping anymore, so she stayed obediently in Cang Yu's room and stayed in his space for five days.
Finally, five days later, the celebration banquet for Cang Yu's promotion to fifth-in-command was held as scheduled. Lin Yue sharpened the scalpel until it shone brightly in the space.
