Luo Ning ignored him and threw the man out the window.

The man fell into the puddle, and Xiao Jie slammed on the gas pedal, splashing all the water onto the man.

Although the acidity of the accumulated water was already very low, strong acid rain continued to fall from the sky.

The strong acid rain fell on him, burning black patches on his body like strong sulfuric acid.

The man screamed on the spot, raised his hand to shield his head, and ran after the car.

"I'm sorry, I know I was wrong, please don't leave me."

The man cried and begged for mercy; his pitiful cries echoed into the car, sending a chill down everyone's spine.

Hua hope was even relieved that she had only whipped herself twice and hadn't thrown herself into the acid rain.

The man ran after the car for several minutes, suffering severe burns to his body and hands.

Fu Xing finally looked at Luo Ning and cautiously spoke, "Miss Luo, that's enough. How about we call it quits this time?"

Although I really disliked that man, my military instincts told me that I could do nothing but let him die.

Luo Ning didn't speak, but nodded slightly, without actively pulling the man back.

She promised that she would never accept such official tasks again; it was just making herself unhappy, and she didn't care about those two points or crystals.

Fu Xing looked helplessly at Cheng Rang, who spread his hands, the vines on his fingertips not even as long as his arms.

"Boss, I'm really no good. If you ask me, people like that should have their mouths washed by strong acid rain."

"That's right, Captain, let him stay a little longer, he won't die anyway," Liang Xiao chimed in.

The big boss is his idol. Even they wouldn't ask him for food. How dare he covet the big boss's delicious food?

"Brother Cheng and Brother Liang are right, Captain. How can we let someone like that go so easily?" Shen Yi said.

Even Zhou Jibai gave the man outside a cold look.

Hearing this, the people in the carriage fell silent, watching as the man outside was covered in red blood, blisters, and blood mixed with rainwater flowed down his body.

Is this considered letting them off so easily?

Just those two minutes of delay made the man's pace even slower; he was already several hundred meters away from the car.

Xiao Jie kept silently speeding up. If that person dared to speak to her like that, then she should never speak again.

Luo Ning glanced at Fu Xing in the rearview mirror. He didn't say anything more, as if he had tacitly agreed with what the others had said.

Knowing that they would be punished if the authorities found out, the vines at their fingertips reached out to the man and pulled him into the car.

Fu Xing glanced gratefully at Luo Ning. He could disregard his own feelings, but there were other people in the team who were young and had a long life ahead of them, so he had to consider their needs more.

Once the man was put in the car, Luo Ning didn't care anymore.

Fu Xing glared at Shen Yi, who then reluctantly began treating the man.

It's a waste to use the little bit of supernatural power he has saved on this person.

The man's body was almost completely burned by the strong acid rain, but fortunately, his water-based healing ability was a cheat code.

Shen Yi's water-based superpower ran over the man's body, and his wounds quickly scabbed over.

Shen Yi didn't intend to treat him properly; he just wanted to ensure the man wouldn't die.

So the man's body was covered in pitted and burned marks.

"Alright, that's settled then!"

There was a water-based ability user in the car who stared at Shen Yi in shock upon seeing this scene.

He was also a water-based ability user, and originally thought that the chances of a man surviving such an injury were very small.

But that person saved the person's life so easily.

Fu Xing didn't insist on restoring the person to their original state; he also thought that as long as the person didn't die, it was fine.

The man woke up groggily and, seeing himself in the car, sat up abruptly.

"I...I'm still alive!" He raised his hand and saw the scars on it.

"This isn't a dream, I just..."

The man was terrified, but the carriage was eerily silent; no one spoke to him, and no one offered him a helping hand.

He looked at Luo Ning in front of him and dared not make a sound.

He could still recall the burning sensation he felt when the strong acid rain fell on his body.

It was a pain and fear that went deep into his bones, an injury he couldn't escape no matter which direction he went. The rain falling on him felt like red-hot iron, both hot and painful.

But now he can't even let the person in front of him notice his resentful gaze.

He dared not go to the front of the carriage anymore, and hid in the crowd at the back with his head down.

An unprecedented silence fell over the car, broken only by the sounds of Luo Ning eating and the music played to prevent the digital group from getting carsick.

The intense music in the front and the silence in the back created an eerie contrast.

Luo Ning didn't care at all, watching the car that had already driven into the city center.

She'll definitely be able to get to the temporary base in Ningcheng today, but she definitely can't get to the official new base today.

Because of rescuing these people, they arrived in Ningcheng two hours later than she had calculated, and those two hours wasted another thirty of her third-order crystal cores.

The official reward for this mission is 10,000 points and 100 second-tier crystal cores. Based on this calculation, the reward for this mission is not much.

Luo Ning sighed; she hadn't taken on a job with such low pay in a long time.

Those second-tier crystal cores were not as valuable as her thirty third-tier crystal cores. Overall, she only earned 10,000 points this time.

She would never have accepted this mission if it weren't for the two contracts she had with the government.

They soon arrived at the official temporary base, and Xiao Jie parked the car at the main gate.

When they left, the buildings were still in good condition, but now the exterior walls have been eroded by strong acid rain, making them look like they haven't been lived in for decades. However, they can still provide some shelter from the rain.

The survivor looked hesitantly at the building in front of him. The building was similar to the one they had been in the hotel, and there was no one there. Was it really the base?

One of the survivors cautiously asked the bank manager, "Sir, have we arrived?"

"This is the official temporary base. We'll rest here for the night and head to the new base tomorrow."

Fu Xing got out of the car, and several guards ran out.

"Captain Fu, you're back?"

The visitor bowed to Fu Xing, who returned the bow.

"Yes, we need to rest here for the night and head to the base tomorrow. There are survivors we rescued in the vehicle; please make sure they are settled in."

"No problem," the guard replied with a smile.

They were the ones left here to guard the last batch of supplies. They were told that Miss Luo and the others had to collect the supplies before they could return to base.

They've finally arrived, and they'll be able to return to base soon.

"Miss Luo, are you going to rest here today?" Fu Xing looked at Luo Ning expectantly.

Luo Ning shook her head, and Fu Xing's eyes instantly dimmed. During this mission, Miss Luo was there for them every time they rested, so he didn't have to worry about anything.

Now that Miss Luo is leaving, he is the one who will miss her the most.

Luo Ning finally returned to Ningcheng. She wanted to go home and take a look. Although 123 said that everything was fine at home, she was worried because she hadn't seen it with her own eyes.

She knew better than anyone how powerful this acid rain was.
