Luo Chen noticed Qi Yunlong's expression and his heart skipped a beat; it seemed something had happened.
Just as he guessed, could it be that Wu Hao kidnapped her?
Immediately, Luo Chen walked towards Qi Yunlong, his face somewhat grim. If it was really as he thought, he wished he could tear Qi Yunlong to pieces right now.
But reason prevented Luo Chen from doing so, and he said, "What's going on? It's okay, we'll figure something out."
Qi Yunlong glanced at Luo Chen and then recounted his encounter with Wu Hao with Mu Shanhai, explaining why he was there.
Hearing Qi Yunlong's story, Luo Chen's mood, which had been in a slump, improved considerably. At least it meant that Mu Shiyu and the others hadn't encountered anything more serious yet.
He wasn't directly captured by Wu Hao. If he had been captured, Qi Yunlong would have been dead.
"Thankfully, nothing bad has happened. How many people does Wu Hao have around him now?" Luo Chen asked, so he could make arrangements for what to do next.
"There were only seven or eight people. However, before we left, I told Shan Hai to go in another direction and then hide." Qi Yunlong turned around and pointed to a mountain behind him, saying, "This place is good enough to hide people, so there shouldn't be any major problems. The current situation is good for us."
Luo Chen also took a look and silently agreed with Qi Yunlong's statement.
The situation here is indeed quite good. As long as Mu Shanhai and his group are not actively discovered, it will take Wu Hao and his group at least some time to find them. During this time, Luo Chen and his group will be able to kill Wu Hao.
"Xiao Wu, take your men and go with them now. I'll stay here and keep watch to prevent John and the others from following behind." Luo Chen glanced over; John and the others had already arrived, and they couldn't waste any more time.
Deal with them as soon as possible, and after sending Mu Shanhai and the others away, I can go back home a bit.
"Okay, I'll take some people over now." Xiao Wu replied, and then led Mia and the others to head up the mountain.
Just as they were about to leave, Mike called out to Xiao Wu.
"Xiao Wu, wait, leave this to me. I'm going to kill Wu Hao myself. I'm going to make this guy pay the price." Mike couldn't bear the thought of his teammates being killed by Wu Hao. His teammates could only be killed on the battlefield, but he couldn't tolerate being killed by a traitor. It was a disgrace to them.
If it weren't for Wu Hao's incident, everything would have gone according to Luo Chen's original plan. Unfortunately, Wu Hao suddenly chose to do this halfway through, so he must bear the corresponding consequences.
“Alright, Xiao Wu, you go with Mike.” Luo Chen nodded, understanding Mike’s thoughts at this moment. He must hate Wu Hao to the core. If he couldn’t kill Wu Hao with his own hands, it would be a shadow over his entire life.
A shadow that will haunt you for the rest of your life.
“But if we do that, we’ll have far fewer people here. We don’t have enough people to begin with, so this isn’t good.” Xiao Wu looked around and realized that they only had nine people left, including Qi Yunlong. If Xiao Wu and Mike left, Luo Chen would really be fighting alone.
"Brother Xiao, I'll stay," Mia said from the side. She definitely wanted to help Luo Chen get rid of John.
"No need, listen to me, you can all leave. I performed better without you, it's unnecessary."
Luo Chen shook his head and declined their offer, finding it unnecessary.
If they were here, it would affect his performance. If a situation like Lao Tie's occurred again, Luo Chen really wouldn't forgive himself.
Without them, Luo Chen's strength doesn't matter much about John's numbers. With some methods, he can at least restrain them to a certain extent.
Seeing Luo Chen say this, the others had nothing more to say.
They were well aware that their strength was far inferior to Luo Chen's.
Luo Chen's thought was that being hampered by others would hinder his performance. If there were other people around, he would have to take care of John and the others at all times, which would completely limit his personal strength.
"Brother Xiao, you...you must be careful." Xiao Wu moved his mouth, but he, who was usually the most talkative, didn't know what to say at this moment. He knew that with Luo Chen's strength, he would definitely be able to survive, but sometimes, accidents can happen.
Of course, he didn't know what the future held, and could only hope that Luo Chen would return safely.
"Xiao, thank you. It's nice to meet you as a friend." Mike was not reserved at all. He walked over to Luo Chen, opened his arms and hugged him. Then he took out a pack of cigarettes, opened it and handed one to Luo Chen: "No need to smoke. This is for you last time. I'm very lucky to have met a friend like you. I hope we'll have a chance to meet again."
Luo Chen took the cigarette from his hand, smelled it, and laughed, "It smells pretty good. I'll take it. Don't be so sad, everyone. I'm not going to die. Besides, I definitely won't die, so don't worry."
[After all, they're still people with a system; how could they just die so easily?]
“If I come back alive this time, I will join the Iron Wolf,” Mike said, taking a deep breath.
"Really? I'd love to hear that!" Xiao Wu, who was standing nearby, echoed excitedly.
"Mia, be careful with Xiao Wu. Remember, don't act rashly. No matter what, always use your brain and rely on your wisdom to win."
Finally, Luo Chen walked towards Mia. Although he hadn't known this girl for long, he had heard about Mia from Xiao Wu and knew that she had stepped forward in a critical moment.
As expected of someone favored by a close friend, he certainly possesses extraordinary abilities.
Luo Chen was also very happy. He could see them all grow up one by one. Although he knew in his heart that he was not a local and would probably go back as soon as possible after this mission was over, he had developed some feelings for this place after being here for so long.
The people he met and the things he encountered here allowed him to experience something else entirely.
"Brother Xiao, I will definitely work hard and I will definitely not let you and Lao Tie down." Mia raised her hand and shouted.
When they came out, there were more than a dozen of them, but now there are only half of them left.
If he hadn't encountered these situations along the way, Luo Chen might have already completed the mission and returned directly.
"That's all for now, Xiao Wu. Take them there quickly, take out Wu Hao, find Mu Shanhai and the others, and then you all head straight for the Northern Frontier, understand?"
Luo Chen's expression was slightly serious as he continued, "Don't worry about me, I'll be fine. You can just go ahead."
"After the mission is completed, go back as soon as possible and bring the commander back. From now on, Iron Wolf will be relying on you."
"yes!"
Xiao Wu stood at attention, gave Luo Chen a low shout, and then led his men up the mountain.
"Xiao, this is the remote control. Wu Hao and his men have planted bombs under the car." Qi Yunlong handed the remote control to Luo Chen and continued, "I'm not sure how many bombs there are, but it should be enough to give them a hard time. Here you go."
"I haven't been able to help you at all, it's my fault. Don't worry, I will definitely get them there safely."
"It's alright, be careful too." Luo Chen smiled faintly and put the remote control in his pocket.
After all, you are also one of my tasks.
Luo Chen chose to do this because he hoped they wouldn't die. If any problems arose, his mission would be completed without any reward.
[Damn system, damn capitalist system, they just keep squeezing me dry.]
After cursing a few times in his mind, Luo Chen finally moved.
John and his group, who were some distance away, remained motionless even after getting out of the car.
John, holding binoculars, kept an eye on Luo Chen and the others. As he watched Xiao Wu and the others leave and head towards the mountain, he frowned, sensing something was amiss.
What are they trying to do?
"John, are they trying to escape? Or are they going to chase after Wu Hao and the others?" Roy put down his binoculars and looked at John with a puzzled expression.
"Look, did you notice what that person handed to Luo Chen?"
Mona had been keeping a close eye on Luo Chen. When she saw Qi Yunlong hand something to Luo Chen, she couldn't see it very clearly because of the distance.
"No, should we go straight there now? They're about to go up the mountain, and Wu Hao and the others are definitely up there too."
"Roy, do you even need to tell me? Wu Hao is definitely on the mountain."
Roy glanced at Mona; this woman was actually cursing him again—she was practically asking for it.
Although he harbored resentment, Roy dared not say anything because John was by his side.
“We can’t contact Wu Hao right now, what do you think we should do?” John asked the two of them.
"It's hard to say. He definitely lured Mu Shanhai up the mountain on purpose so that he would have a better chance to capture them and also use the terrain to threaten us. Once they're up the mountain, it will be harder for us to find them."
"You guys think so?" Roy started indulging in his own imagination again.
"Let's go straight there." Mona seemed rather anxious; if they didn't go now, they wouldn't have another chance later.
"Mona, are you stupid? We don't know anything about the situation over there. If they're setting up an ambush and deliberately creating this situation for us, wouldn't we just fall right into their trap?" Seizing the opportunity, Roy managed to regain his pride by taking advantage of Mona.
At that moment, John was also somewhat puzzled.
He turned to the team members behind him and said, "You two, go over there and see what's going on?"
"Go check if there's a trap there!"
