Delta: I have a 1-Haf Coin instant kill system!

It was night, and the fog was billowing, carrying the dampness of the river water as it slowly climbed up the base of the wall.

The outer wall of the small substation was shorter than that of the main substation.

Zhang Zhao and Haizhao flipped over one after the other.

The interior looked even more dilapidated than the exterior. Two transformer boxes stood on concrete bases, their surfaces rusted and looked like they hadn't been maintained for a long time.

The door to the monitoring room on the first floor was half open, and there was no one inside.

Hawthorn walked in, his finger touching the outside of the kettle on the table. "The person must have been gone for a while."

Zhang Zhao stood at the door, the Relink brain-computer interface already scanning the entire small substation.

There were no living creatures within the area.

He tried to extend his perception beyond the wall, but it was just as empty.

The commotion at the military camp was so great that the fire and explosions attracted almost all of the Hafk soldiers in the dam area.

The main dam was looted, the military camp was bombed, and one mishap after another had already thrown Hafk's plans into disarray.

"Reconnaissance complete, we can withdraw now."

Hatay emerged from the monitoring room, shoved the game console back into his tactical chest rig,

"Meet us on the West Side Highway!"

The two climbed over the wall and crept westward along the riverbank.

The evacuation route was planned in advance.

From the small substation, head west across the riverbank, around the cement plant construction site, and then south to see the West District Highway.

Hawthorn walked ahead with a steady pace, stopping every ten steps or so to listen for a few seconds before continuing.

Zhang Zhao followed behind her, about to quicken his pace, when a light suddenly popped up from the Relink brain-computer interface.

He paused, his fingers instinctively reaching for the Dragon Slayer sword at his waist.

The monstrous claw also stopped at the same time; she had even noticed the anomaly earlier than Zhang Zhao.

The two of them crouched down almost simultaneously, peering out from the shadow of the corner of the wall.

The figure was crouching at the base of the wall!

It was Said

He was slowly wiping the blood off the Crimson Claw Blade. Next to him was a black backpack with the zipper half open, revealing a corner of what looked like medical supplies.

Zhang Zhao's hand remained on the hilt of the Dragon-Slaying Saber, not drawn.

The distance between the opponent and the nameless person was too far when they fought, exceeding the range of brain-computer interface detection.

But now—

[Target: Saeed Ziaten (Captain of the Guard)]

【Height: 178cm】

[Weight: 83kg]

【Strength: 21.4】

[Agility: 25.8]

[Endurance: 23.9]

【Spirit: 20.2】

This number is just as terrifying as Reis's!

The monstrous claw crouched beside him, neither advancing nor retreating.

The two remained frozen in the shadows of the corner of the wall, so that Saeed could see them whenever he turned his head.

Saeed suddenly stopped moving.

He slowly raised his head, his gaze falling on the Claw—or more precisely, on the armband on her arm!

That's a badge unique to GTI official operators; each person's badge is different, and the one for Claw is a cat.

"Someone from GTI?"

Saeed had obviously seen the patch somewhere before, so he didn't act immediately.

His tone was flat, revealing neither hostility nor goodwill.

Hare Claw nodded, slowly straightened up, and took half a step back.

Saeed lowered his head again, as if he had suddenly lost interest in the two of them.

"Get lost, before I change my mind!"

He lowered his eyelids, and tucked the claw knife back into his waistband.

Hazaki did not hesitate.

She grabbed Zhang Zhao's wrist and turned to walk quickly toward the riverbank.

The campfire behind us grew farther and farther away, and the sound of footsteps on the gravel was completely drowned out by the sound of flowing water.

Zhang Zhao was being pulled forward by her, and couldn't help but look back.

Saeed was still squatting in the same spot, looking up in the direction they had left.

The firelight flickered on his face, and although the scarlet mask covered most of his face, the curve of his mouth was clearly visible!

He was actually laughing?

Zhang Zhao turned his head back and didn't look back.

The two moved quickly westward along the riverbank.

Only when the small substation behind them was completely blocked by the terrain did the monstrous claw release his wrist and slow down.

She bent over, supporting herself on her knees, and took a few breaths before straightening up and brushing the stray hairs from her forehead behind her ears.

Zhang Zhao stood to the side, silent for a moment.

"Does Said know you?"

Haunted Claw shook his head.

"They must recognize the GTI badge..."

As she spoke, she glanced down at her arm patch.

"As for why we know each other... I don't know."

Zhang Zhao did not ask any further questions.

Said may have met someone from GTI, perhaps they've played against each other, or perhaps they've just crossed paths.

He couldn't tell if they were friend or foe, but at least today, he let them go!

After catching their breath, the two continued along the riverbank towards the western highway!

......

The sound of footsteps on the riverbank was gradually swallowed by the flowing water. Said squatted in place, watching the two figures disappear into the night.

He glanced down at the backpack at his feet and reached out to unzip it completely.

Inside were more than a dozen silver sealed boxes, all containing medical supplies, which were exactly what he needed for this trip!

For all of this, he blew up a military camp and fought a battle with the nameless, but it was worth it!

"Rashid..."

He murmured the name, unconsciously stroking the backpack strap.

"Wait for me, I'll be right back!"

He slung his backpack over his shoulder, stood up, and walked downstream along the riverbank.

After taking a few steps, he suddenly stopped and looked in the direction where Zhang Zhao and the other person had disappeared.

"Flint's intelligence is accurate... but I wonder which two of them are from the GTI, and why is one of them without an arm patch?"

Saeed tightened his suspenders and jumped into the river!

......

At the same time, Zhang Zhao and Haichua had already reached the edge of the West District Highway.

The gravel road merges into an asphalt road ahead, and a Hafk power delivery truck is parked on the south side of the road.

The two walked southeast along the road for two or three hundred meters, and sure enough, a simple fortification made of sandbags appeared in the darkness.

Two transport trucks were parked next to the fortifications, their bodies covered with dusty camouflage netting.

As Zhang Zhao approached, several heads popped out from the edge of the truck bed.

"You're back?"

Deep Blue straightened up from one of the truck beds, his gaze sweeping back and forth between him and Claw.

"Are you in trouble?"

Haunted Claw shook his head.

"No, I ran into Said."

There was a moment of silence in the truck bed.

The bee doctor poked its head out of the driver's seat of another car, half an energy bar dangling from its mouth.

"Said? So he didn't attack you?"

"No!" Zhang Zhao interjected. "He saw the Claws armband and let us go."

Uluru climbed out from behind the truck bed, dusted off his pants, and

"This guy's interesting. He only picks on Hafk's players? But he's being quite polite to our GTI?"

Gu leaned against the edge of the truck bed, arms crossed over his chest, a slight upturn at the corners of his mouth.

"Our GTI?"

Uluru scratched his head, and his usually bushy beard now looked rather憨厚 (simple and honest).

"Instructor, what you're saying... it's giving me the creeps."

Gu smiled.

"Alright, I'll stop teasing you! You've all successfully completed the mission, and you'll be able to get promoted when you get back."

The truck bed was quiet for less than a second before it exploded.

"Holy crap—really?"

Uluru was the first to shout it out.

"I've already been officially hired? I thought it would take at least a year and a half!"

Red Wolf couldn't suppress the urge to smile.

"You, who almost got your head chopped off by an unknown person with an axe, got promoted entirely by luck."

"Hey! That gave me a feeling!"

Uluru puffed out its chest,

"If I hadn't reacted quickly, Aiden would be dead!"
