The statue's arm fell from the sky with a loud thud, stirring up the dust on the ground and causing it to spread rapidly.
From a distance, it looked like a thick fog had rolled in, and nothing could be seen. After the meteorite fell from the sky, it was like a light in the thick fog.
"A good opportunity, let's make our move!"
Qu Ruilin saw that Duan Jinyan and the others were all obscured by the smoke and dust, and was the first to rush over from behind the stone platform.
Qu Ruilin moved, and the rest of us followed.
At that moment, my idea was simple: to cooperate with Qu Ruilin to capture Duan Jinyan.
It wasn't just because he was threatening me with the monkey and the well, but also because we were already at a disadvantage compared to Duan Jinyan. If we didn't work together to take down Duan Jinyan and his group while things were in chaos, we wouldn't have a better chance.
If Qu Ruilin and the others get into trouble, not only will I lose track of Monkey, but given Duan Jinyan's style of doing things, he will never let me go.
The smoke and dust spread from afar, and my vision quickly became hazy. The light emitted by the meteorite was like a lighthouse in the foggy night, guiding my way.
After everyone rushed into the smoke, I could no longer see anyone else. I could only run towards the meteorite. Since this was Duan Jinyan and his group's target, as long as I could find the meteorite, I would definitely be able to see Duan Jinyan.
After I rushed into the smoke, I ran towards the meteorite. At this moment, Duan Jinyan and the others probably didn't know we were coming. As long as we could get close to the meteorite, we could gain the upper hand.
As I ran through the fog, the distant light became clearer and clearer.
Just as the dust around me was illuminated by the light, I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my body.
It was a pain that came from the inside out, as if someone had cut me open and turned me inside out.
As I felt the intense pain, I knew it was from the radiation of the meteorite. Thinking of the people in the mural whose flesh and blood had been scorched, I quickly retreated.
Although I have moved away from that meteorite, the pain from the radiation has not disappeared; in fact, it is getting worse.
It felt like an invisible fist had appeared inside my body, relentlessly punching my internal organs.
This internal pain made me sweat profusely, and my stomach churned.
A strong urge to vomit overwhelmed me, and I couldn't help but rip off my gas mask and kneel on the ground.
"vomit!"
I braced myself on the ground with my palms and spat out a mouthful of blood, which quickly filled my mouth with a strong, metallic taste.
When I reached down and touched my face, I realized that the wetness on my face wasn't from sweat, but from blood.
My skin wasn't broken, but beads of blood were seeping out from under my skin.
Even my vomit contained a lot of blood.
I hadn't even come into contact with the meteorite, yet I had already been exposed to such severe radiation. I finally understood why that man had been able to faint from the pain in an instant.
"Bang!"
Just as I was vomiting, a gunshot rang out not far away. Immediately afterward, the man who had just gone up to place the explosives shouted, "Someone's trying to take advantage of the chaos! Everyone be careful!"
Hearing the man's roar, I hesitated for a moment and did not rush over to help. Instead, I ran in another direction.
While we were keeping watch from a distance, Duan Jinyan and his men placed the unconscious man at the foot of the stone statue and then hurriedly set up explosives. This suggests that they may not have taken the gun from the man's hand.
In this kind of confrontation, only by acquiring firearms can we increase our chances of success.
I ran wildly through the billowing dust and found the unconscious man. I searched his body and quickly found his sidearm.
"Bang! Bang!"
Just as I got the gun, two more gunshots rang out in the distance.
I turned around and looked around. After all that fuss, the dust had lessened considerably.
From the edge of the dust, Qu Ruilin and Song Laosan had already subdued the man who had just planted the explosives. Song Laosan had taken the man's gun and was hiding on the side of the statue, firing suppressive shots at Duan Jinyan.
The meteorite, radiating dazzling light, was currently located a dozen meters away from the leopard.
"Bang! Bang!"
Leopard seized the opportunity and fired two shots at Song Laosan. Duan Jinyan seized the opportunity and suddenly swung his wrist, throwing a box out.
From my position, I couldn't see what Duan Jinyan was doing, but I could see the meteorite moving towards the box. Presumably, Duan Jinyan had used the copper coin and silk thread that had cut off Lin Que's wrist to wrap it up.
"Bang!"
I saw the meteorite moving, and I fired a shot.
The meteorite was hit by my shot and immediately flew into the distance.
Seeing the box in the distance, I became even more convinced that Duan Jinyan must have come prepared; otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to have even prepared a box to hold the meteorite.
"Boom!"
Just as I was about to shoot the box away, Duan Jinyan suddenly threw several grenades between us, and thick smoke immediately separated the two sides.
Seeing this, Qu Ruilin made a move to rush forward: "Duan Jinyan is running away!"
"Bang! Bang!"
I fired two shots into the smoke based on my instincts, and shouted, "Don't go any closer! The radiation from that meteorite is too strong! If you get too close, you'll die!"
As I shouted those words, the light behind the smoke shifted its position, and then our cave suddenly became pitch black.
From the darkness, Wei Shengnan's voice rang out: "Oh no! Duan Jinyan got the meteorite!"
"It might not be a bad thing. Now we each have two guns, and we outnumber them. They have a way to seal the meteorite, which makes it convenient for us to take it away!"
Song Laosan lowered his voice: "Everyone, take cover. There is no light source here. The side that wants to leave will have to use lighting equipment. The side that can't hold on any longer will surely die!"
After Song Laosan finished speaking, we all groped our way to hide behind cover and looked across at the same time.
We said we were looking, but the cave was pitch black, so we just stared in that direction by feel, waiting for the light to appear, while keeping a silent so as not to be identified by sound.
The deep-seated hatred between us is irreconcilable; if war breaks out, it will inevitably end in a life-or-death struggle.
At this crucial moment when we were all desperately trying to win, we were all on edge. I groped my way to the edge of the statue and then held my breath and waited.
"Thump!"
About a minute later, a slight noise came from behind me.
In the absolute silence, I was startled by the sound behind me, and I turned around abruptly, raising the gun in my hand.
