Chapter 106 Please Remember Us (Second Update)

Lin Chen didn't know what he was thinking, but he followed the guerrilla captain into a secret passage in the scorched earth.

It was probably because the sound of the steel torrent was approaching, and the human body really couldn't withstand that kind of thing.

Led by the guerrillas, the squad advanced through the dark tunnel, walking for half an hour at a time.

During this process, Jiang Zhengge counted the number of people: each of the three armed forces squads had suffered casualties, and they could be pieced together to form 1.5 squads, but there were several wounded among them, so they could only be counted as one complete squad.

Considering they had to cover the wounded, they were basically incapable of fighting.

The members of Section One who participated in the operation were all unharmed. Lucy and Jiang Zhengge suffered minor abrasions, while Li Zhanyi and Lin Chen were completely fine.

"You're not going to tell me you mimicked Captain England's abilities, are you?" Jiang Zhengge patted Lin Chen's shoulder with a smile as they walked side by side. "Good lad, you always manage to create surprises."

"Don't count on me too much. That last attack was very taxing," Lin Chen felt that the azure substance in the Mirage City had decreased significantly. "I won't be able to do it again."

"It's alright, that's enough," Jiang Zhengge said softly. "Actually, I was confident that I could get Lucy out of here unscathed, but it probably wouldn't be as easy as it is now. Since you've already carried the burden for us, just leave the rest to me."

Jiang Zhengge gave Lin Chen a thumbs up, then shoved a can of Azure Factor into his hand: "I guess you'll need this, go ahead and use it."

"Section Chief~ I've used up a lot too," Li Zhanyi pouted, "Why did you give it to Lin Chen?"

"You get one too," Jiang Zhengge handed a can to Li Zhanyi. "Pick as many as you like, Sister Hua will cover all the expenses."

So it turns out the bureau chief paid for it all... Lin Chen smiled helplessly, put the Azure Factor into the syringe, and injected it into his neck.

"Are those entities your friends too?" Lucy stared uncomfortably at the guerrillas leading the way. "Look at their attire... typical Raintown guerrillas... they're still defending Raintown..."

"Poor things, forever trapped on the battlefield," Li Zhanyi sighed, "while their Rain Town has long been turned into the Foundation's backyard."

"To be honest, I don't know their purpose," Lin Chen said softly, "but it seems we have no choice but to follow them."

"I don't really like this feeling of losing control," Jiang Zhengge's lips twitched slightly, "but considering you once had a physical friend with gamma-level abilities, this risk is worth taking."

Just then, a light appeared ahead. The guerrilla fighter turned and gestured to Lin Chen before quickly crawling out.

"I'll go first." Lin Chen drew his gun, quickened his pace, and walked towards the light.

A vast green plain came into view.

This is clearly the boundary of the "scorched earth" operation in the ruins. A crack separates the vast plains in the distance from the scorched earth, and the charred land stops at the edge of the crack.

"It's actually a shortcut..." Lin Chen murmured.

"So smoothly..." Li Zhanyi said in disbelief, "We really got out like this?"

The guerrilla captain walked up to Lin Chen, bowed to him, and then gestured for him to come this way.

Lin Chen exchanged a glance with Jiang Zhengge behind him, then nodded towards the physical entity: "Let's go."

Led by the captain's physical form, Lin Chen arrived at a small camp.

Most of the people here are guerrilla fighters with charred skin. Some are sharpening knives, while others are maintaining their weapons. They look well-trained.

"If only this guerrilla force would listen to me..." Lin Chen had a strange thought for no apparent reason.

Led by the captain, several wounded soldiers from the armed forces unit arrived at a medical tent, which contained a large amount of medical resources that appeared to be of surprisingly good quality.

"You should rest here for a while," Jiang Zhengge said. "Try not to use their stuff, as it might be contaminated by subspace."

Upon hearing this, the charred nurse stomped her foot forcefully, looking rather unhappy.

The captain spoke a few words in a language that Lin Chen couldn't understand to the entity, and then led the group of students towards the large tent in the center of the camp.

Upon entering the tent, Lin Chen saw an old man sitting in a chair with a blackened face and a hunched back.

The captain stopped the rest of the team and gestured for Lin Chen to continue forward.

"I will give you a warning," Li Zhanyi said.

Lin Chen nodded, stepped forward, and walked up to the old man.

The old man struggled to raise his head, glanced at Lin Chen, and then bowed his head deeply.

"The ghosts of history..."

Seeing the old man's submissive demeanor, Lin Chen hesitated for a moment, then softly asked, "Why are you bowing to me?"

"Please remember our story," the old man murmured, "we fought to defend Raintown."

"We should not be forgotten."

The entity before him clearly possessed a certain level of language ability, or rather, intelligence, and could even converse fluently with Lin Chen.

Its grade will not be low.

"Why me?" Lin Chen asked again.

"You recorded everything," the old man looked up, "Have you forgotten?"

Record everything...

The Mirage City allows us to glimpse everything Lin Chen has experienced... Is this a record of history?

Lin Chen stared at the old man's charred, featureless face for a moment, then nodded gently: "I will remember your story."

"Come back if you need help," the old man replied, "we will take you to your destination."

After saying that, the old man nodded slightly, and the captain gestured for Lin Chen to proceed.

"Your physical friend can talk..." Jiang Zhengge patted Lin Chen on the shoulder. "This guy is ruthless; the entire guerrilla force is probably based on him."

"Those that can talk aren't so scary after all," Lin Chen nodded. "To be honest, I didn't expect them to be willing to help us like this."

"Actually, they're quite cute," Li Zhanyi thought of the nurse who stomped her feet. "Although friendly entities aren't exactly rare, encountering them every time is a bit too much..."

"That archivist is definitely not a friendly entity!" Lucy frowned. "There's something about that kid that attracts those entities—an aberrant succubus?"

Succubus is just too much...

Lin Chen smiled helplessly. After meeting up with the officers from the Armed Forces Department, they were led by the entity to a passageway.

"Going through tunnels again?" Jiang Zhengge laughed. "They're not going to let us crawl back in, are they?"

"Hey, this is when you have to trust our real-life friends," Li Zhanyi said excitedly. "Let's go! Let's go through the tunnel!"

The group entered the tunnel and walked in the dark for another ten minutes or so.

When they finally emerged from the tunnel and saw the light of day again, they were greeted by a vast green plain.

This shortcut actually bypasses the block directly?

Only now did Lin Chen realize that this so-called shortcut was actually the guerrillas' unusual ability.

Lin Chen turned his head and looked at the edge of the tunnel, where the guerrilla captain was standing at the entrance.

It waved to the crowd, then turned around and disappeared back into the tunnel.

From the beginning, the guerrilla entities have had the ability to cross blocks, and scorched earth is not a shackle for them.

Yet they remained steadfast on the battlefield, fighting time and again for their Rain Town.

Even though that small town has long since vanished in the torrential rains of history.
