rescue operation
Liu Xia watched Song Xuan's reaction nervously, waiting for his answer.
If this mechanical heart can still be used, then whether He Tianlin can recover will be in the hands of his own people, and he will no longer need to be threatened and manipulated by Qi Ya. Then the initiative will be in his own hands.
The uncertainty of this matter has always bothered Liu Xia. After all, it involves He Tianlin's life and cannot be treated carelessly.
She didn't want to put all her bets on a domineering person in power. Even if there was a 70% chance that Qiya would fulfill her promise, she still didn't want to and was unwilling to do so.
After all, there is still a 30% chance that this woman named Qiya will suddenly change her mind and regret it.
When Song Xuan saw the still-steaming mechanical heart from the corner of his eye, his fingers trembled with shock. He quickly slowed down his speed to 40 mph and asked in surprise, "Where did you get this?"
Liu Xia did not intend to conceal the origin of this mechanical heart, and truthfully recounted his experience in the cave.
"The important core components are all intact, but there's been a lot of leakage of conductive fluid. I need to see Doctor Lin to see how to deal with it."
Song Xuan frowned and poked the connecting catheter on the edge of the heart with his metal finger. He continued, "But I can see that you removed it very carefully. It should still be usable."
Liu Xia's nervous expression finally relaxed, and she subconsciously pressed her chest, where she was still wearing the amulet that He Tianlin had given her.
She nodded with a sense of relief, and the worry she had been having finally settled down in her stomach: "It's good that it can still be used. It would be great if Atong was here. I see that she has been studying very hard recently."
Since this heart can be used, it means that the initiative is back in my hands. Now I can decide whether to go or stay based on the actual situation.
Although Liu Xia has always been straightforward and daring, and has never broken an agreement, this concerns the safety of her companions, and she knows very well that she cannot act on impulse.
She had started thinking the moment she got the mechanical heart, and had been thinking about it for a long time until now. Now she finally had a rough plan in her mind.
Liu Xia carefully wrapped the mechanical heart with waterproof cloth again and placed it carefully back into the iron box. He lowered his head and put this precious thing back into his backpack, stuffing it at the bottom of the backpack.
Before she could raise her head, she heard Song Xuan shout "Be careful!" and her whole body suddenly fell forward under the push of inertia. If she hadn't reacted quickly and raised her hands to support herself, she would have almost hit her head.
Liu Xia steadied himself, supporting the metal interior of the passenger seat with one hand, and asked while looking up, "What's wrong?"
"They've been surrounded by those bastards from the Hyena Gang." Song Xuan's face showed a hint of sarcasm and disdain, and his low voice carried a hint of danger. "The Royal Guards have already entered the competition area, and these guys haven't even left yet. They must be so impatient."
At this time, Liu Xia had already sat up straight and could see what was happening from the front window of the car.
Hundreds of huge brown and black mutant hyenas were running out from the woods on both sides of the road, blocking the entire road surface.
They are twice the size of ordinary hyenas, with many ulcers on their skin and corrosive venom dripping from their sharp fangs.
If the jeep forced its way through, it would inevitably be damaged by the violent impact. Even if the car had been reinforced to a certain extent, it would not be able to withstand so many impacts.
Behind these mutant hyenas, there are more than a dozen hyena gang members wearing gray anti-radiation cloaks, scattered in different positions, staring at the jeep with guns. It is obvious that these people are controlling them.
Immediately afterwards, Hao Feiyang's gloating laughter came from the trunk, but the laughter was a little muffled because it was blocked by the partition.
Even without seeing his face, one could guess what expression would be on Hao Feiyang's feminine and beautiful face: "My lovely puppies have finally come to pick me up. Song Xuan, I advise you to let me go as soon as possible, otherwise I will take your little lover back and make her the deputy gang leader's wife~"
"Shut up!"
Song Xuan's expression gradually darkened, and his pair of beautiful black eyes were instantly filled with murderous intent. If this hostage had not been captured by Liu Xia, he would probably have cut him into pieces on the spot to relieve his hatred.
After hearing what Hao Feiyang said, Liu Xia raised the corner of his mouth with a sneer. He wanted to say something, but in the end he said nothing and leaned steadily on the passenger seat.
She slowly pulled out the pistol from her waist and held it in her hand, her fingers stroking the word "hanging" on the metal handle. It happened that the ammunition she prepared this time had not been used much.
Since I won't be living in the Black Gold City anymore, I can use this resource that's been delivered to my doorstep for free and work hard to get some exotic beast cores as start-up capital.
"Release Brother Feiyang immediately, and we'll consider giving you a chance to live." One of the Hyena Gang members shouted from a distance, using a megaphone to amplify his voice. "Otherwise, these mutant hyenas will rip your internal organs clean!"
These hyena gang members had obviously been lying in ambush here for a long time. Hundreds of mutant hyenas quickly ran out from the road where they came, blocking their way.
Although Hao Feiyang was tied up like a dumpling in the trunk, he was still very dishonest. He began to struggle and kick the trunk lid with his tightly bound feet. The sound of metal colliding was endless.
The humming sound of the engine suddenly roared. Song Xuan pressed his foot firmly on the accelerator, quickly shifted the gear to first gear with his right hand, released the clutch with his left foot, and suddenly turned the steering wheel to the left. The black jeep rushed towards the guardrail on the left like an arrow.
“Bang! Bang!!”
Gunshots and the sound of metal colliding rang out at the same time. As the jeep knocked over the guardrail, one of the Hyena Gang's closest members had a big hole in his head. He didn't even have time to scream before he fell to the ground with blood all over the floor. He was deader than dead.
Several sharp whistles sounded at the same time, countless pairs of scarlet eyes lit up, and low roars approached like a tide. Hundreds of mutant hyenas brought by the Hyena Gang to kill them rushed towards the jeep from all directions.
Every shot from Liu Xia's gun accurately penetrated the head of a hyena gang member who was giving the whistle, scaring the members who were hiding behind the hyena group back and no longer daring to get too close.
The breakout on the left had just begun to show success when more mutant hyenas emerged from it.
I don’t know if these hyena gang members have concentrated all the mutant hyenas brought into the contaminated area here. All I can see is brown and black fur.
