Lu Yuan seized an opportunity and instantly broke away from the group. The entire hall was in ruins, with debris, wounded soldiers, and corpses everywhere.
Lu Yuan was about to continue walking forward when he suddenly noticed a teammate grabbing his trouser leg. Lu Yuan frowned, looked down, and saw that the other person's eyes were full of pleading.
"Save me, I don't want to die."
The other person was clutching him tightly, looking extremely distressed. Lu Yuan shone his flashlight on the wound and discovered a gash about twenty centimeters long in the other person's abdomen, with a large amount of internal organs flowing out with the blood. Lu Yuan sighed, knowing that the other person was beyond saving.
"Since you know that Panlong Group is beyond saving, why continue to be their lackey?"
The other person looked pained, then covered the spot in his abdomen where he had been shot with his hand, coughed twice, and said...
“I didn’t want to either, but they kidnapped our family members, and we had no choice.”
"What? You mean the Panlong Group kidnapped your family members?"
“That’s right. You think we’re all willing to fight for them? Most of us are forced into it. They’ve taken nearly a million people hostage. They said that once Chen Yan gains control, they will detonate that building and kill everyone here.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan's heart sank considerably. He hadn't yet received the news from Chen Yan, and he felt an overwhelming sense of fear.
"Damn it, I didn't expect things to be in such a mess here. Brother, I really can't save you. Rest in peace."
After saying that, Lu Yuan ignored the other person and kicked him, tearing his hand away. The moment the other person saw his hand being torn off, his eyes were filled with despair, but he was helpless.
Lu Yuan turned off his flashlight and continued running forward while crouching down. This was to avoid being injured by stray bullets, and also to reach Chen Yan as soon as possible. He wanted to know the specific situation here, as the other party had not given him too much detail during the phone call.
So Lu Yuan took a step forward and quickly walked forward, soon arriving at the other side of the battlefield. The people on this side were obviously not very strong. Although they were as hungry and battered as the rioters, they were clearly short of firearms.
This was a shout coming from behind.
"Lorraine, even now, are you still so stubborn?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan immediately looked in the direction of the sound and saw Chen Yan holding a megaphone and shouting in their direction from behind a wall in the distance.
A burst of maniacal laughter erupted from the group of thugs opposite them.
"Hahaha, Chen Yan, don't think I don't know what you're up to. You just want to dismantle our city, right? Let me tell you, no way! Surrender right now and hand over the people! I can guarantee your life, otherwise you can wait to be driven back to your hometown by us!"
"Lorraine, you idiot! Do you even know that the people in the middle layer are planning to detonate the rock layer? Once the rock layer is detonated, our entire urban area will be finished!"
"Impossible! Who are you trying to fool! Don't listen to this crazy woman. The middle management won't abandon us. Don't worry, everyone. I've worked with Long Yue for so many years, and I know her best. She won't abandon us. Please believe me!"
The other person's voice carried a hint of anger, as if they were afraid that these people would run away with them after hearing Chen Yan's words.
As expected, the men below immediately fell silent, and even the gunfire subsided. However, shouts from the squad leaders followed, and the men below immediately raised their guns and fired again.
"These fools have been too easily bewitched!"
Then, Lu Yuan ran quickly toward Chen Yan. Before he got close, he was suddenly stopped by several people. They saw that Lu Yuan was strong and powerful. Although his face was covered in dirt, it could not hide the strong and powerful feeling in his body. Compared with them, he was like heaven and earth.
"Who are you? Stop right now!"
A young man, emaciated from hunger, held a gun in his hand and pointed it at Lu Yuan with slight trembling.
"You don't even recognize me anymore? I'm here to save you. Put down your guns and let Chen Yan come over!"
The other person was slightly taken aback, and then several beams of flashlight light shone on Lu Yuan's face. Lu Yuan gently shielded his eyes from the light with his hand.
Then a gasp of surprise came from the people around him.
"He is Lu Yuan, he is Lu Yuan, that wanted criminal!"
"What? It's Lu Yuan? What's he doing here? What does he want?"
"What's this dangerous guy doing here? Wasn't he supposed to be in the middle level? How did he get down here?"
"..."
Everyone was filled with doubts, but after hearing the voices of the crowd, Chen Yan came from behind. The moment she saw Lu Yuan, her eyes turned red and she ran over.
"Put down your guns! What are you doing? These are people who came to rescue us!"
Chen Yan came over and stopped everyone's behavior. Then she explained the situation to them, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, Chen Yan walked up to Lu Yuan and looked him up and down.
"Thank goodness! I'm so glad you're alright! You've finally come! Now we're all saved!"
Lu Yuan nodded slightly: "There's no time to lose, let's arrange for people to evacuate as soon as possible!"
Chen Yan nodded, then suddenly remembered something: "By the way, there are still about a million people trapped in that building as hostages, you see..."
