There was a dull thud as the back of my head hit the rock.
He didn't even make a groan, his body twitched violently several times, his eyes rolled back, blood flowed from his mouth and nose, and he completely lost consciousness, only his body was still twitching slightly unconsciously.
From the military advisor's counterattack as a trapped beast to his complete collapse like a limp as mud, the entire process took no more than five seconds!
Ning Xiwan was breathing heavily, her chest heaving, and cold sweat mixed with splattered blood slid down her forehead.
She didn't even look at the military advisor lying on the ground like a dead dog, and her cold eyes instantly turned towards the entrance of the passage.
Skinny monkey! Box!
She turned around and rushed back to the cave like a gust of wind.
Inside the cave, the lights flickered. Skinny Monkey was still slumped in the corner, hugging the silver-white cooler, his whole body shaking like a sieve.
He witnessed with his own eyes the entire process of Ning Xi destroying Scar as easily as cutting melons and vegetables, chasing after the military advisor, and returning at lightning speed. The huge fear had completely destroyed his mind.
When Ning Xiwan's blood-stained and murderous figure reappeared at the cave entrance, the skinny monkey's crotch was wet again and a foul odor spread.
"Don't... don't kill me! Don't kill me!" The skinny monkey was crying and talking incoherently. He looked at Ning Xiwan who was approaching step by step, as if he saw a Shura who was taking his life.
"The box... the box is for you! It's all yours! Spare my life!"
He hurriedly pushed the cooler in his arms out as if it were a hot bomb.
Ning Xiwan didn't touch the box immediately. Her sharp eyes swept over the two chained women, who had already fainted from fear, to confirm that they were not in immediate danger.
Then her eyes fell on the silver-white box that rolled to her feet.
The box is not big, about the size of a small suitcase, and the outer shell is made of sturdy engineering plastic with a cold metallic texture.
There were no markings on the box, just a few simple pressure valves and a temperature display. At that moment, the green number on the display was flashing: 4°C.
Ning Xiwan squatted down, but didn't open it hastily. She fought back the churning in her stomach and the exhaustion that swelled deep into her bones as she carefully examined the lock on the box. It was a specially made combination lock, meticulously constructed.
She tried to pry it apart with force, but it didn't budge.
Just then—
“Buzz buzz buzz—!”
A low and oppressive roar came from far away, penetrating the thick rock walls of the cave like thunder and clearly entering the cave.
Ning Xiwan looked up suddenly! It was an SUV! Duan Shuce!
Almost at the same time, an extremely dazzling, condensed pillar of light, like a sword of divine punishment, suddenly tore through the darkness at the entrance of the cave and shot in with great dominance.
Everything in the cave—the terrified skinny monkey, the unconscious woman, Scar Brother's corpse, the limp military advisor, and Ning Xiwan squatting next to the refrigerator—was shrouded in a pale light.
The source of the light column was a helicopter hovering over the mountain stream outside the cave.
The huge searchlight pierced through the mist, illuminating the cave entrance as bright as day!
"Listen up, people inside! You are surrounded! Put down your weapons immediately! Cover your head with your hands! Get out of the cave!" A majestic warning came through the loudspeaker on the helicopter, echoing repeatedly in the narrow mountain stream, deafening!
Immediately afterwards, rapid, dense, and well-trained footsteps were heard from the direction of the cave entrance.
"Safety!"
"The passage is clear!"
"Target found! Repeat! Target found!"
Concise and powerful tactical commands rang out one after another!
Several figures wearing black combat uniforms, holding assault rifles, with tactical paint on their faces and exuding a cold and murderous aura, rushed into the cave swiftly in a standard tactical formation like ghosts.
The infrared laser aiming point on the muzzle of the gun was like the gaze of death, instantly locking onto every target in the cave that could still move - the skinny monkey, and Ning Xiwan who was squatting next to the box.
"Don't move! Put your hands on your head! Lie on the ground!" The cold muzzle of the gun and the stern shout were pointed at Ning Xiwan at the same time!
Ning Xiwan subconsciously narrowed her eyes and raised her hand to block out the bright light. After a long battle in the dark, she was suddenly struck by such strong light. Her eyes stung, and tears welled up uncontrollably.
The tension in her body suddenly relaxed after she was sure it was safe. A strong feeling of weakness and dizziness swept over her like a tide, making her eyes go dark.
She obediently and slowly raised her blood-stained hands to indicate that she posed no threat.
"Don't shoot! We're on the same side!" A voice that was so familiar that it was engraved into one's bones, but now carried an unprecedented urgency and anxiety, exploded at the entrance of the cave like thunder.
A figure pushed past the tactical team members who had just established a cordon at an almost brutal speed and rushed in regardless of everything.
It’s a section of the plan!
His expensive suit was already covered in mud and scratches from the rapid journey and climbing, and was even torn in several places.
His usually meticulously groomed hair was now disheveled, and his handsome eyes were now bloodshot, surging with rage and brutality that threatened to burn everything.
And... the moment he saw Ning Xiwan's figure, he felt a huge panic and heartache that almost burst out of his eyes, as if he had lost and then found something again!
His eyes were like the most sophisticated scanner, instantly capturing the tiny, still bleeding arrow mark on the side of Ning Xiwan's neck.
His temples were throbbing wildly, his knuckles were cracking, and the terrifying low pressure emanating from his body made the battle-hardened special forces soldiers next to him subconsciously tense up and feel a palpitation.
"Wanwan!" Duan Shuce's voice was as hoarse as sandpaper rubbing against his chest, trembling with an almost broken voice.
