Lu Yuan shrugged: "Use this!"
The other person saw the pistol in Lu Yuan's hand: "I...I can actually use a pistol too! Can I come with you?"
"Huh? You? Are you sure you want to go?"
Jonana nodded: "Yes! I absolutely love fighting alongside you! It's so exciting!"
"Okay! Are you sure you know how to use it?"
The other person immediately took the gun from Lu Yuan's hand, and after a series of maneuvers, the gun was reduced to a pile of parts, which she then quickly reassembled.
"Do you think I can do this?"
"Okay! Be careful! I really don't understand why a girl like you would know this kind of thing!"
When Qiao Nana heard that Lu Yuan had agreed to let her come along, she was overjoyed and wanted to give him a hug.
"Alright, alright! We don't need that! Let's hurry upstairs and get ready!"
"Yes, sir!"
Qiao Nana saluted Lu Yuan, then happily rushed upstairs.
Seeing the other person's back, Lu Yuan couldn't help but shake his head.
The people below were already preparing for the evacuation. Sun Ping wiped his tattered glasses and looked at Lu Yuan, saying, "Everyone is here! Look..."
Before he could finish speaking, Lu Yuan flicked his finger, and the people in the square instantly disappeared from their spots.
The team members who came with Lu Yuan were shocked to see that Lu Yuan had taken so many people away with just a flick of his finger.
"So the rumors were true! I never imagined that Lu Yuan really had the ability to make people appear out of thin air!"
"Is this an illusion? Or a magic trick? I'm a little confused!"
"Looks like we're saved! That's great! I hope we can all get out of here alive!"
"..."
A collective gasp rippled through the crowd. After settling everything, Lu Yuan looked at the group and said, "Let's go! Upstairs!"
The team members didn't ask any questions and followed Lu Yuan straight upstairs.
Once upstairs, Lu Yuan looked at the group, which had grown to more than fifty people.
"Hmm! We should have enough manpower to deal with the people on the 173rd floor!"
"By the way! Did Zhao Zhen say anything?"
Qi Xianghai nodded: "He kept saying he wanted to tell you the truth!"
"Good! Since he's come to his senses, let's meet him! Hopefully, the people in Lorraine won't detonate the building so soon!"
Lu Yuan was a little worried, so he walked straight toward Zhao Zhen and the others.
Upon seeing Lu Yuan, Zhao Zhen struggled to get up, but a teammate immediately kicked him to the ground.
"Stay still! Don't move!"
Zhao Zhen shouted loudly, "Lu Yuan! I'll talk! I'll tell you everything! Just let me go!"
Lu Yuan nodded: "Okay! Releasing you is no problem! But I need to make sure what you're saying is true! Tell me! Where did you put me?"
Zhao Zhen swallowed hard and said, "They put it on the first floor!"
"What? The first floor? Are you sure?"
Zhao Zhen nodded: "That's right! Not many people know about this! I only heard about it myself! They deliberately put it on the first floor to prevent you from finding it!"
"Isn't the first floor already flooded? You're not kidding me, are you?!"
"No, no, no! I'm telling the truth! I'm not lying to you!"
Lu Yuan frowned immediately: "Then take me there!"
"How...how do we get down there?"
Lu Yuan looked at the other person: "What? Didn't you say it was on the first floor? Now that I'm telling you to go, you're too scared to go?"
"But... that area has already been flooded!"
"It's alright! I have the tools! I'll take you there when the time comes! You don't need to worry about that!"
Zhao Zhen looked around at the people, and everyone immediately turned their heads away, clearly not wanting to be implicated.
Standing to the side, Qi Xianghai panicked upon hearing Lu Yuan's words: "Um... Brother Lu, that place is far too dangerous! After all, the water is over a hundred meters deep, and it's impossible to go down without a submarine! How about... how about we take care of these people as soon as possible!"
Lu Yuan shook his head: "They're probably already thinking of a countermeasure! We don't have much time left! Here's what we'll do! I'm handing all the guns and ammunition over to you now! You're in charge here!"
"Rescue all these hostages and put them under centralized management! I'll take Zhao Zhen to handle things down below! That way, we can do both without any problems!"
"But……"
"There are no 'buts' anymore! That's how it is now!"
After saying that, Lu Yuan took out his phone and dialed Chen Yan's number.
"Hey, Lu Yuan! How's it going over there?"
"We're doing alright here! By the way! Have you and Lorraine reached a ceasefire?"
"That's right! We're running low on guns and ammunition! If we keep fighting like this, we might not be able to keep up with the supply lines!"
"Don't worry about what happens next! From now on, you take your men and get Lorraine and the others out of here! Remember, be quick! Don't be stingy with your bullets! I'll do the same on my end!"
"Is... this really okay?"
Chen Yan's voice carried a hint of suspicion.
"Sure! Because most of their guns and ammunition are with us now! And I've already organized a small team! You two work together! I'm going to take some men down to the building to get the gun out! Otherwise, if Lorraine detonates the building, everything will be over!"
