Helpless, Mo Shuwan could only stand up and gently tug at Wen Zuo's hair, "Let's go."
Wen glanced at Hope on his left side, then stood up as well, casually taking out two pieces of spirit beast meat and tossing one to Hope and the stratosphere beast.
"After we get back, we'll eat all the herbs I've stored and digest them slowly for a few days. That should be enough to tear open the spatial rift and go back to save Yang Zhou—" Before the last word was finished, Mo Shuwan suddenly stopped in her tracks, looking at the sky with a strange expression.
A moment later, she turned to look at Wen Zuo, who looked puzzled, and whispered, "Just now... I heard Lin Guaiji's cry for help."
"Lin Guaiji? You can hear him?"
"Hmm, I just overheard it." Mo Shuwan was also puzzled, but soon she showed a look of sudden realization, "Do you remember the game we experienced in the game world?"
Wen Zuo certainly remembered that the passengers who lost in the previous game had all turned into monsters and become the targets of other passengers' venting at the gambling table. He thought about it carefully for a moment and roughly understood what Mo Shuwan meant. "You mean you promised him that you would do anything to save his life if necessary?"
“Yes, that should be the reason. His current location—” Mo Shuwan vaguely sensed it, “is in a very, very far place.”
"Are you going or not?"
"Go ahead, but we need to wait until we can tear open a spatial rift first." Otherwise, we won't be able to get there.
In other words, the original plan remains unchanged, except that instead of rescuing Yang Zhou, the plan has changed to rescuing Lin Guaiji first.
Mo Shuwan and Wen Zuo arrived at the front line as usual. The two charged recklessly and suffered many injuries, but thanks to Wen Zuo's terrifying healing ability, they could often retreat for less than half an hour and then rush back up again, which really gave the invaders from outside the region a headache.
Those high-ranking members of the foreign invaders who were focused on the battlefield were furious. They gathered together for a meeting and unanimously agreed that they should kill Mo Shuwan and Wen Zuo at all costs, and even Mo Wuqiong was temporarily put aside.
Cheng Hua and the others, who had been fighting on the front lines for more than ten days, retreated to Wen Zuo's side. After Wen Zuo treated their wounds, when Mo Shuwan asked if they wanted to continue, they all said they were feeling listless and needed to go back to rest for a few days.
"Captain, we're leaving now. You two be careful."
Mo Shuwan nodded. Just as Yun Chen and the others were about to leave, she suddenly remembered that she hadn't told them about Lin Guaiji. She quickly stopped them and told them about Lin Guaiji. Seeing their hesitation, she directly stated her opinion, "My idea is that you all stay here for now. Wen Zuo and I will go to rescue Lin Guaiji."
"That won't do. We're not comfortable with just the two of you going."
"It's alright, we can handle it. You guys stay here and focus on improving your strength. If nothing unexpected happens, the final battle is probably not far off."
After Wen Zuo finished speaking, Yun Chen and the others were silent for a moment before finally nodding. "Be careful."
Watching the others leave, Mo Shuwan and Wen Zuo exchanged a glance before charging back into the front lines. For them now, time was their lifeline...
...
Lin Guaiji couldn't remember how long he had been on the run. The only thing that allowed him to tell time in this place was how many people were missing from his side. It was only through his strong willpower that he was able to hold on until now in this terrifying crisis.
Beside him were Zhou Quansheng and Su Xuan, who were equally disheveled. Having escaped from Battlefield No. 1 to this place, there were only three of them left. During this time, the three of them had schemed against each other and plotted against each other, but in the end they had no choice but to cooperate. Even with cooperation, they still ended up in this situation.
"How much time is left?"
"At most half an hour."
Lin Guaiji didn't say anything more. He found an open space and collapsed down. Su Xuan and Zhou Quansheng did the same.
Half an hour is the time it takes for those guys to catch up. They can only rest for another ten minutes at most, otherwise, if the distance is closed, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Su Xuan didn't lie down; his long legs were relaxed and bent, and his expression could even be described as comfortable. If he weren't in such a disheveled state, he would give the impression that he had come here specifically for sightseeing.
He yawned and casually kicked Lin Guaiji, who was lying next to him. "Are you sure your distress signal will be received? No, I mean, are you sure the person who receives your distress signal will come to your rescue?"
Lin Guaiji frowned. "Of course."
"OK, then let's wait."
Ten minutes passed in the blink of an eye, and the three of them immediately set off.
After running for over a year, with almost everyone around him dead, Zhou Quansheng, who was usually quite talkative, had no one to talk to. Now, his mouth was itching to speak, so he couldn't help but look at Lin Guaiji and start a conversation, "Didn't you come from this place? How come those guys were so much more terrifying than you?"
Lin Guaiji didn't want to talk, so he didn't answer the question, but Zhou Quansheng persisted. He kept asking the same question repeatedly for more than an hour.
Lin Guaiji finally lost his temper and said with a gloomy face, "The prison is divided into five levels, and I have only been on the lowest level."
This short sentence is enough to explain Zhou Quansheng's problem. It's simply that they were extremely unlucky and fell directly into the upper part of the fifth floor, which meant that they had almost no power to fight back except to escape.
For a full two weeks, the three of them ran for their lives. The distance between them seemed to be slowly widening, but their faces grew increasingly grim. The 21st of each month was approaching, and every time this happened, one of them would die, or at least be badly injured.
