A team silently infiltrated the dense forests of the eastern district, climbing up the high walls, intending to cross the mountains and enter the territory of the Jing tribe.
The seven-person team had already prepared themselves for life and death together, so they obeyed Qian Lei's orders in every word and deed.
Liao Yu is also a tough guy.
He stood firmly at the bottom of the line, letting Qian Lei's men step on his shoulders one by one to climb up, and then reach out to pull him up.
Once the team reached the mountain ridge, Qian Lei gave Liao Yu a thumbs up: "Well done! You truly deserve to be Yan Lin's personally chosen comrade-in-arms. Your endurance and resilience are top-notch."
The key is that he's not pedantic and his mind works quickly.
If Zou Xiaozhou had acted recklessly and acted impulsively, the people he would have to rescue now would not be just Yan Lin, but three, and the pressure would have fallen entirely on the Fengcheng Huaxi Military Region.
Liao Yu scratched his head with a bewildered expression.
He said, "Among the people Brother Yan led, I am the least capable. He has always looked after me, which is why he always keeps me by his side so that I can gain experience."
Qian Lei gently patted his shoulder, nodded in praise, and then called everyone to go down the mountain together.
"Saving lives must be the top priority. In case of any unexpected events, evacuate immediately if possible, and don't worry about others, because if you get caught, it will be considered a private matter," he reiterated.
"yes."
It concerns the nation's reputation, and a single misstep could trigger a large-scale war, making some sacrifices inevitable.
The Seven Suicide Squad had been prepared since the moment they joined.
Liao Yu nodded deeply.
He was determined to save Brother Yan, even if it meant his own death.
Anyway, eighteen years later, I'll be a hero again.
Liao Yu was the first person to descend the mountain.
He led the way, followed by three defenders and three others filing down in single file, advancing towards the mountains. But for some reason, he had a persistent feeling that someone was watching the back of his head.
When I turned around, I saw nothing again.
Liao Yu doubted that he was overthinking things, so he pressed on forward regardless.
In the water dungeon.
The squeaking of rats gnawing filled the air. The soldiers guarding the area above were leisurely enjoying the scene, watching the blood spread in the water, each one of them extremely excited.
The man in charge of the interrogation shouted, "Are you Yan Lin? Just answer me and we can get rid of the rats—"
He asked questions in both English and Chinese.
No matter how he asked, the man in the water dungeon remained silent.
"Ma Lei, that son of a bitch, he's really stubborn. Even after all this, he still dares to keep quiet. I think there are too few rats, too few. Keep releasing more!"
Enraged, the man gave an order, and a large number of his pet rats were thrown into the water.
Someone on the shore blew a whistle, directing the army of rats to attack.
Flesh was torn apart, and one after another, gaping holes appeared, but Yan Lin remained silent throughout.
Memories of the past flooded my mind.
He was locked in a dark cave, surrounded by rats and insects. He had eaten rats when he couldn't find food, but he never expected that one day he would become the rats' meal.
None of that matters.
Whether he lives or dies, he lost the moment he opened his mouth.
If you cry out in pain, you're about to surrender.
But... he suddenly felt a nagging pain in his heart.
Zhizhi is still waiting for him in Haicheng.
She was still full of anticipation, counting down the days until his return.
This time, he's going to break his promise.
Pain surged forth, wave after wave shaking his soul; even the pain of being gnawed by rats could not compare... It was too painful.
If only I could see her one last time before I die, and say a few words to her.
hehe.
He's really delusional.
Having fallen into the hands of barbarians, he actually had the audacity to entertain the thought of seeing his beloved wife; he was truly daydreaming.
Hiss~~
Hiss~~
Splash splash splash.
Hehe, slurping.
Suddenly, a large number of brightly colored snakes appeared in the water prison, spreading from the shore all the way into the water, accompanied by the slithering of scorpions and the hissing of various poisonous insects, making one's scalp tingle.
Yan Lin smiled bitterly to himself.
The end of the world has come.
His flesh and blood weren't enough to feed him.
"ah--"
In an instant, the man on the shore who was blowing the whistle was covered in venomous snakes and scorpions... While he was frantically swatting them away, he accidentally fell into the water.
The mice he had trained, their eyes filled with hatred, ignored Yan Lin and swam headlong toward the animal trainer.
The team of interrogators behind them were also dumbfounded.
"What's going on? Why did Fan Xiong feed himself to the rats? Where did all these snakes and scorpions come from?" the man roared, but a bad feeling crept over him.
The next second, a premonition came, and venomous snakes, scorpions, and insects rushed towards them with incredible speed, as if they had been trained... swift and ferocious, they covered everyone in one go.
"Aaaaaahh ...
One scream after another rose and fell.
Under Yan Lin's cold and indifferent gaze, he was wondering why the venomous snakes were circling him but not swimming towards him, and why the scorpions and venomous insects on the shore were also hovering around, not as if they were attacking, but rather as if they were... guarding him.
Yes.
This is so strange.
Just as Yan Lin was feeling incredulous, a figure rushed over and shook the handle, raising the iron cage.
"elder brother--"
Liao Yu was incredibly excited.
He and Qian Lei split into three groups.
He was originally planning to go in another direction when suddenly a large group of snakes appeared and forced him all the way to the water dungeon.
