Just as the people inside were about to tie up Zhao Yuxuan, a cold, sharp voice suddenly rang out from the doorway: "Let's see who dares!"
The sudden, cold voice was like a winter wind, instantly dispelling the noise and sullenness in the room, making the entire space freeze.
Everyone turned their heads, their gazes all fixed on the source of the sound—the door had been pushed open at some point, and two soldiers dressed in cold-weather combat uniforms and wearing cold-weather masks stood in the doorway. Through their cold-weather masks, one could see that their eyes were sharp as knives, and they exuded an unassailable aura of authority.
The assault rifles the two men were holding made everyone present tremble involuntarily.
"It's...it's the 'Cold Relief Militia'!" someone exclaimed.
"Haha~ Sir, you've come at the right time! This woman is a traitor from the Tianyu Base, and we were just about to expel her!" Upon seeing this, Liu Zhen was filled with suspicion, but on the surface he pretended to be calm and tried to steer the situation in a direction that was favorable to him.
The two soldiers ignored Liu Zhen's words. Their gazes were like two sharp swords, staring directly at everyone in the room, especially Zhao Yuxuan, who was surrounded in the middle.
“Although this person is no longer a member of our Tianyu Base, our ‘Anti-Cold Disaster Relief Militia’ has always upheld justice and protected the weak. We will never allow any form of bullying or oppression to occur.” One of the soldiers’ voices was calm and firm, revealing an unquestionable determination.
Although they were sent by Chen Yu to secretly protect Zhao Yuxuan, since it was a secret protection mission, they would not easily reveal their purpose unless absolutely necessary.
"Zhao Yuxuan, come here." A soldier gently beckoned to Zhao Yuxuan, signaling her to come to his side.
Looking at the two militiamen, Zhao Yuxuan felt incredibly conflicted. She was someone who had been expelled from the Tianyu Base, and now she had to rely on the militiamen from the Tianyu Base to save her when she was in danger.
Her eyes were slightly red, but more than that, they were filled with gratitude and relief.
She strode forward, resolutely walking towards the soldiers, each step like walking from the abyss into the light.
Upon seeing this, Liu Zhen instinctively tried to grab Zhao Yuxuan, but after seeing the militiaman's sharp, knife-like eyes, his hand froze in mid-air and eventually slowly fell down.
"Thank you... thank you all." Zhao Yuxuan's voice was a little choked up. Standing next to the soldiers, she felt an unprecedented sense of security.
The two soldiers didn't say much, only nodded slightly, but their eyes never left the people in the room, and they still gripped their assault rifles tightly, maintaining a high level of vigilance.
“Zhao Yuxuan, the situation is still unclear. We must leave here as soon as possible,” one of the soldiers said in a low voice, his tone carrying an unquestionable determination.
Zhao Yuxuan nodded. Although she still had many questions in her mind, such as why these two militiamen knew her name and why they appeared at this time, she knew that now was not the time to ask them.
"Okay, I'll do as you say," Zhao Yuxuan replied, her voice still trembling slightly, but she tried her best to appear calm.
Upon seeing this, one of the two soldiers turned around, quickly scanned the surroundings, and after confirming that there were no other threats, whispered to Zhao Yuxuan, "Stay close to us and don't fall behind."
Zhao Yuxuan nodded again and followed closely behind the soldier.
The three of them quickly walked out of the igloo and headed outside.
Several people who had initially tried to obstruct the way at the entrance made way for the militiamen after seeing their cold eyes and the assault rifles in their hands.
Watching Zhao Yuxuan and the other two leave, a middle-aged man next to Liu Zhen said with a look of doubt, "Boss Liu, if we just let that woman go like that, it might be hard to explain to the Red Sky Alliance!"
Liu Zhen's face was gloomy, his eyes fixed on Zhao Yuxuan's departing figure until she completely disappeared from sight, before he spat on the ground.
"Explain? Hmph, what do we need to explain to the Red Sky Alliance? Besides, if we don't let them leave, do you expect us to snatch them from the militia at Tianyu Base?" Liu Zhen said irritably.
The middle-aged man lowered his head and remained silent upon hearing this. Trying to snatch someone from the hands of militiamen? Were they insane?
Not to mention that they still rely on the relief from Tianyu Base to survive every day, even if they really had the desire, they wouldn't have the guts to do it. Do they not want to live anymore?
However, he was still somewhat worried about the Red Sky Alliance. After all, they had made a deal with the Red Sky Alliance, and now that Zhao Yuxuan had been released, it was hard to guarantee that the Red Sky Alliance wouldn't seek revenge later.
Although the militia at Tianyu Base are strong, they are at least reasonable, and there are many within Tianyu Base who sympathize with these refugees, so they won't go so far as to exterminate them over this matter. But the Red Sky Alliance is different; those people have no bottom line and are ruthless. Once you offend them, the consequences are unimaginable.
"Boss Liu, what should we do next?" the middle-aged man asked cautiously.
Liu Zhen was also feeling irritated at this moment, and waved his hand to drive everyone out of the room.
After thinking for a moment, she whispered a few words in the middle-aged man's ear.
The middle-aged man's expression changed drastically upon hearing this: "If we do this, what if the people at Tianyu Base find out... this..."
The middle-aged man didn't finish his sentence, clearly harboring reservations about Liu Zhen's proposed plan.
Liu Zhen glared at him, a ruthless glint in his eyes, and lowered his voice to snort coldly: "If this succeeds, we will not only get rid of this trouble, but we may also be able to use someone else to do our dirty work and completely get rid of the Red Sky Alliance's entanglement. From now on, outside of Tianyu Base, we will be the ones in charge!"
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man hesitated for a moment, but was quickly overwhelmed by the allure of Liu Zhen's words. He knew that in this chaotic world, only the strong could survive, and the plan Liu Zhen proposed might be their chance to turn their lives around.
"Boss Liu, I...I'll listen to you," the middle-aged man said in a low voice, his voice carrying a hint of determination.
Liu Zhen nodded in satisfaction, patted the middle-aged man on the shoulder, and said, "Very good. As long as we work together, nothing is impossible. Go and prepare now. Remember, be careful and don't give anything away."
The middle-aged man responded, turned and left, and began to prepare for the task Liu Zhen had assigned him.
Liu Zhen remained alone in the room, his gaze fixed on the direction Zhao Yuxuan had left, his thoughts unknown.
