The lord nimbly grabbed a trapped man, forcefully tearing away the slime covering his body to free his arm.
Seeing that he had regained his freedom, the trapped man looked at the Duke with deep gratitude and said, "Thank you for saving my life. I have no way to repay you."
Junjue smiled and shook his head: "No need to be polite. This is just the beginning. We need to rescue people and get out of this dangerous place as soon as possible."
"Roar roar roar..."
Seeing another wave of alien beasts arrive, the Duke placed the trapped person beside him and, using his agile movements, successfully led him away from the beasts' control.
"Be careful and stay behind me."
"Crack..."
"Crack!"
A large wave of powerful lightning-based energy was unleashed, and accompanied by the screams of the alien beasts, countless charred corpses of the alien beasts appeared on the ground.
The teammates around them did the same, leaving the rescued people behind and using various attack abilities to fight fiercely against the surrounding aliens.
However, the rescue operation was not over. Junjue and his teammates continued to risk their lives, rescuing one trapped person after another.
Their faces always wore firm and resolute expressions, like a guiding light illuminating every corner of the darkness.
Under the leadership of the Duke, more and more trapped people were rescued.
The trapped people followed in the footsteps of the Hope Team, taking step by step toward freedom.
Despite the numerous difficulties and dangers, everyone believed that as long as Lord Jun was by their side, they would be able to get through this terrifying nightmare.
Looking around at the fifty or sixty people from the Dragon Kingdom, each covered in black slime from head to toe, the Duke silently recited:
"System, are there any other Chinese compatriots around?"
[Host, there are none left. Only those foreigners who were captured first and have long since lost their life force.]
"knew."
After several hours of fighting, Junjue, Shangguan Wan'er, Di Zhantian, Dongfang Ao, Su Ye, Ye Yuan, Yue Ying, Yue Chi, and Chen Fan finally rescued all those trapped in the alien nest.
Braving the alien-infested lair, burdened with pain and fear, they finally returned to the light of the mortal world.
"We finally rescued everyone. It was so dangerous!" Di Zhantian said, shaking the slime off his hands.
Su Ye looked around. The nest was uneven, covered with layers of slime, and was not only dark but also incredibly damp. He said, disgusted,
"We finally rescued them. This place was like a giant garbage dump, stinking and covered in slime."
"Yeah! It stinks here. I don't want to stay here for even a second longer. I really want to go back to my space! What should I do?" Shangguan Wan'er said speechlessly.
The other teammates nodded in agreement, the veins on their foreheads bulging; they were truly fed up with this place!
The trapped people were incredibly grateful. They gazed lovingly at the Duke and his teammates: "Thank you, you are our saviors, we will remember your kindness forever."
The Duke smiled and shook his head. "No need to thank me. I was just doing my duty."
I only did my bit of effort.
With fewer and fewer people left, if so many more are to be devoured, humanity will face the crisis of extinction.
We are doing our best to save the flame and prevent civilization from being destroyed. His voice was calm, but his words conveyed boundless anticipation and hope.
"Yes! With so many people being captured and brought into the lair every day, humanity will eventually perish!"
They gazed at the Duke and his teammates, their gratitude evident.
Shangguan Wan'er walked up to a trembling middle-aged woman, not disgusted by the woman's sticky body, and painfully grasped her skinny hands: "Auntie, are you alright? We're safe now!"
Tears welled up in the middle-aged woman's eyes, and she said in a trembling voice, "Thank you, young lady."
You are truly our saviors. Without you, we might have been trapped in this dark place forever, facing death at any moment!
Shangguan Wan'er gently shook her head, dismissing the middle-aged woman's praise: "Auntie, don't say that. We just did what we were supposed to do."
At this moment, Dongfang Ao walked over and, facing a somewhat injured young man, asked with concern, "Are you still holding on? Are you alright?"
The young man looked at Dongfang Ao with admiration in his eyes: "Thanks to you, we were finally rescued and left this disgusting place. You are truly my saviors."
Dongfang Ao waved his hand and said modestly, "It is our bounden duty, and it is our greatest honor to be able to help you."
At the same time, Su Ye personally escorted an old man out of another den. The old man looked at Su Ye with gratitude.
“Young people, you are not only incredibly powerful, but you have also saved us old bones like angels. We are truly blessed.”
Su Ye smiled and said, "Sir, you're too kind. Actually, saving people isn't just my responsibility, but also a feeling and a mission."
Another little boy who had been rescued came over from the group. His eyes were glistening with tears as he tightly grasped Ye Yuan's hand: "Big brother, you are the best! Thank you for rescuing me and my mom!"
Ye Yuan squatted down and gently patted the little boy's head: "Little guy, don't cry, you're safe now."
We were simply fulfilling the duty of an ordinary person; we will not allow humanity to perish.
Yue Ying then faced a young girl and said with gratitude, "Thank you. You not only saved our lives, but also gave us hope of going home."
