"Yeah, I can feel it. Get ready for battle," Shangguan Zhi replied. He was one of the few in the team who knew how to use a gun. The other one was a girl. Although Leng Yihan didn't know their marksmanship, since they dared to choose, they must be pretty good.
Leng Yihan and Leng Binglan both used cold weapons. Leng Yihan took her favorite katana and even tried it out while holding it. It seemed that the experience of using the katana had become an instinct for her body. After a while, Leng Yihan had already adapted. If her body hadn't been unable to keep up, she probably could have performed even better.
Leng Binglan naturally took the longsword, seemingly particularly fond of its dexterity and lightness. Although the ten people became wary, they did not stop, only slowing down slightly and becoming even more alert.
Suddenly, Machi disappeared from everyone's sight. As if by prior arrangement, the vanguard team immediately scattered. Although Leng Yihan didn't know what was going on, she still decisively followed the side with fewer people, wanting to make up for the gap in the number of people on that side.
The vanguard team suddenly split into two teams of five, one led by Machi and the other by Shangguan Zhi.
The two teams became increasingly cautious, their pace slowed, and their footsteps became almost imperceptible.
Finally, Leng Yihan broke the silence. Coincidentally, just now, he suddenly felt that someone had passed by. He immediately focused his attention and activated his spiritual ability to perceive things. He quickly discovered that a group of people were trying to surround the vanguard team, and they hadn't even noticed.
Without saying a word, Leng Yihan falsely accused Leng Binglan, released her hand, and her figure turned into a streak of blue light and disappeared from the spot. Before the man could react, he was split in two.
Seeing the corpse he had just severed with a single stroke, with blood still flowing from the cut, Leng Yihan felt a wave of nausea. However, he knew he didn't have time to feel nauseous; there were other enemies around, and his actions were undoubtedly very dangerous.
No one knew what Leng Yihan's attack was, but at least there was an energy fluctuation that everyone could feel. Shangguan Zhi threw out a prop without hesitation, which illuminated everything around the vanguard team. Although the light disappeared quickly, the figure of the newcomer had already appeared in the vanguard team's multi-functional night vision goggles.
"on!"
206 Old Factory
The number of people surrounding the vanguard team was only twenty, and their combat strength was far inferior to that of the vanguard team. In just a few dozen seconds, all twenty people were wiped out. Leng Yihan was fortunate enough to kill three of them, so he was vomiting on the side.
"Brother... your patience is too poor..." Leng Binglan said, looking ashamed.
“No… I think Brother Yihan’s reaction is normal, or rather, I admire him.” Shangguan Zhi walked over. “To be able to kill three people so quickly without any guilt, and only like this, he will probably recover soon, I admire him too, but compared to you… I feel he is still far inferior.”
As Shangguan Zhi spoke, her eyes glanced at Leng Binglan beside her, the meaning clear—you are much calmer than him, and you are still a little girl younger than him.
"Well, I guess I'm not too afraid of this because of my own reasons, especially since I didn't kill anyone just now." Leng Binglan said with her arms crossed. Indeed, she had been watching the show the whole time, at most injuring people, but she didn't actually hurt anyone.
"It's hard to imagine that a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl could talk about murder so casually... Let's go, get ready and continue." Shangguan Zhi said.
"..." Leng Binglan stared at Shangguan Zhi. This guy was very shrewd. After glaring at him for a while, Leng Binglan walked to Leng Yihan's side. By this time, he had almost recovered.
"Brother, are you alright?" Leng Binglan asked.
“Something’s wrong, something really wrong…” Leng Yihan’s face was extremely grim. “Although killing in the oracle feels okay, in reality… the guilt is so intense that it makes it hard to even breathe.”
"It's alright, brother. Just think of them as the murderers who took Lin Yin away, and you'll feel much better." Leng Binglan.
“I’ve already been doing this… otherwise, how do you think I could recover so quickly…” Leng Yihan rolled her eyes.
"Let's go then, don't keep everyone waiting too long," Leng Binglan said.
After rejoining the group, no one said much to Leng Yihan, and Leng Yihan didn't need to either; otherwise, it would only increase his guilt. He just wanted to adapt to what had just happened as quickly as possible, because he knew that the number of people he would have to kill next would probably not decrease...
After walking for a while in the darkness along the mountain road, about a few minutes later, Machi said, "We're almost there. There's a passage leading to their base near the abandoned factory not far away, but I don't know the exact location."
"So... you mean we have to find it?" Shangguan Zhi said in a low voice, receiving a nod of agreement from Machi.
After a few more minutes of silence, Machi suddenly stopped and reached out to stop the people behind her from continuing forward.
"Direction 174, three men guarding the gate," Machi said in a deep voice, pointing naturally to the factory gate.
Leng Yihan looked in the direction Machi indicated, turned on the magnifying glass function of her multi-functional glasses, and with the night vision function, she indeed saw three people cautiously guarding the door. They were wearing thick armor, and the weapons they were holding were no longer ordinary rifles, but light machine guns.
In that case, the vanguard will undoubtedly face greater difficulty in breaking through. Moreover, even if they manage to get through, they won't know what the defenses behind them are like, and they could easily find themselves in danger.
"Let's use the tech gun," Leng Yihan suggested. "Mine will do." He added that since the tech gun was such an important item, everyone should save money wherever possible.
"Is that so...? Thank you for your help. Let's split up and sneak in while things are in disarray," Shangguan Zhi suggested, glancing at the others around her.
“I’ll stay with my brother so they can take care of each other,” Leng Binglan said, taking Leng Yihan’s arm.
“No problem!” Shangguan Zhi replied.
"Then it's up to you. Let us see the power of the tech gun," someone in the vanguard said. Then everyone split into two groups of four and scattered to the side, one person on each side who knew how to use a gun.
Phew... Alright, let me see just how powerful the tech gun really is.
Leng Yihan raised the technology gun. He didn't intend for it to have any particularly obvious effect. He just wanted to attract their attention and then lose one of their combatants.
Then, he pulled the trigger. At first, the tech gun didn't respond, and just when Leng Yihan thought it might be broken, the next second...
"Bang!!!"
A thick laser beam shot out instantly, annihilating the three gatekeepers within its range. Although it only lasted for a short while, the destructive power was immense. The crater created by the laser reached deep into the factory.
"Impressive," Leng Binglan praised. That attack not only killed the gatekeeper, but also seemed to have destroyed something, as a raging fire instantly broke out inside the factory.
"Not bad..." Leng Yihan turned off the night vision function. The whole factory was already quite cold, so the function was no longer needed.
In an instant, Leng Yihan saw that the other vanguard team members had already rushed in, so she naturally started running after them.
Of course, Leng Yihan did not forget to pay attention to the surrounding environment when she went in, so as not to be ambushed. However, the people inside had been terrified and had no power to resist. They did not know how many people died from Leng Yihan's shot or how many died in the disaster. In any case, there were only more than 50 survivors, and only three or four of them were calm.
Soon, Shangguan Zhi and Maqi also killed the three or four people. The more than 50 people were wiped out in a short time, but Leng Yihan was not particularly happy. Instead, she had a strange feeling.
"This...it's too easy to break through..." Leng Yihan frowned tightly, feeling that something was really wrong.
"Could it be... the second possibility, that they have actually already retreated?" Leng Binglan didn't know what had happened either.
“…Let’s go meet up with them first.” Leng Yihan was about to walk out when Leng Binglan stopped her and pointed to a spot not far away. Only then did Leng Yihan see that someone had actually run out.
"Let's bring him back and question him." Leng Yihan didn't rush out immediately after seeing this, but instead charged towards the person with Leng Binglan...
-
My name is Hammer King.
I am just an ordinary soldier in our organization. Today, we were ordered to stand guard at the old factory and be careful of any intruders.
At first, I was very relaxed, thinking that no one would dare to come. With the organization's strength, I could crush those people in no time.
We quickly discovered them and sent out snipers, but they were all wiped out. At that point, we still didn't realize the seriousness of the situation.
Until a laser beam pierced through the entire factory, knocked away the oil drums, and ignited a raging fire, I watched my comrades being instantly annihilated. Terrified, I dropped my weapon and fled the factory.
I thought that as long as I got out, I would be safe.
I managed to escape, but just when I thought I was safe, someone blocked my way. It was a little girl, and her long sword was pointed at my throat, just a hair's breadth away from piercing it...
"Stay here, you deserter!"
deserter--
These two words, like a curse, are firmly imprinted in my mind...
207 corpses
"Don't kill me...don't kill me...I beg you..." Leng Yihan and Leng Binglan exchanged a glance as they watched the man, who was much older than them, kneeling on the ground, crying and pleading.
“This guy… is a bit fragile…” Leng Binglan.
"Yeah... what should we do?" Leng Yihan asked, taking out the tech gun, but the safety was already on, so there was no need to worry about it going off accidentally.
"You, you can do whatever you want with me! Please don't kill me! Please don't kill me!" The man was so frightened by the gun Leng Yihan pulled out that he fell to the ground and tried to back away, but the icy blue sword was immediately pointed at him. "Deserter, stay where you are and don't move!"
Leng Binglan has a very sensitive reaction to deserters, and it's obvious that her emotions are significantly stronger when this topic is mentioned...
"Did something happen to you before..." Leng Yihan thought for a moment, but didn't intend to ask any more questions. She took out a pair of handcuffs from her small backpack and cuffed the man. Leng Binglan pointed her long sword at him, and the three of them began to return to the old factory.
"I...I don't want to go back...I'll die if I go back! I'll die!" The man tried to run away, but when he felt the sword getting closer to him from behind, he froze in fear.
"Stop talking nonsense, you deserter... Just recognize yourself!" The cold, blue sword almost pierced through the man, pressed against his back, and was just a hair's breadth away. If Leng Yihan hadn't stopped him, this guy would be dead by now.
"!" The man dared not speak again and obediently shut his mouth, but the fear on his face was not so easily concealed.
"What's your name?" Leng Yihan asked, seeing that the man was stunned.
"I...I am called Hammer King..." Hammer King said softly, afraid of angering the girl behind him who was holding a long sword.
"...Blue Moon, put down your sword. Your name is Hammer King, right?" Leng Yihan said to Leng Binglan first. Leng Binglan put down her sword with some resentment. Then Leng Yihan spoke to Hammer King.
"Yes..." Hammer King felt the finger pointing at him had been lowered and breathed a sigh of relief. But as soon as he relaxed, he felt his legs were surprisingly weak. If he wasn't worried about blocking their way and being killed, Hammer King would have already knelt down.
"You probably never expected that there would be someone lying in wait outside, right?" Leng Yihan said, making a joke as she spoke.
"Yes, yes, I really never expected this..." Hammer King lowered his head and said fearfully.
Hammer King hadn't run very far before, and soon Leng Yihan and Leng Binglan forced him back to the old factory. At that moment, some members of the vanguard team were searching for something at the entrance, and they breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the two approaching from a distance.
"Hey, you guys are alright? You scared me to death! I thought something had happened to you." Shangguan Zhi, who was walking in front, came up to the two of them and said this. Then, after noticing the person being coerced by the two, he looked at Hammer King with interest.
"Who is this...?" Shangguan Zhi asked curiously.
"I don't know if 'Hammer King' is his real name. He was the sole survivor of that massacre, a deserter," Leng Binglan said with a stern face. Leng Yihan stared at her for a long time, wondering when she would finally relax...
Deserter... What exactly happened in another world?
“…We’ll watch over him. You two go in first. We estimate that the old factory isn’t their real base. You two can look for any secret passages,” Shangguan Zhi said to the two of them.
“Okay.” Leng Yihan nodded and followed Leng Binglan through the main entrance. At this time, only two members of the vanguard team were searching in this open space. Apart from the three at the entrance and Leng Yihan and Leng Binglan, there were three others searching somewhere.
"Oh? Where are you going? I thought something had happened to you." Seemingly noticing that someone had come to the open space, one of the people looked up and greeted the two.
“…Um, it’s nothing.” Leng Yihan glanced at the person, the girl in the vanguard team who used a gun.
“By the way, you don’t know my name yet, do you? My name is… Yu Sanjing,” Yu Sanjing said.
Yes... just like the name mentioned in the report, even the movements are very similar, but why... this strange feeling in my heart...
“Rain… Sanjing?” Leng Yihan nodded. “Nice to meet you. Well then… I’ll go take a look over there.”
As Leng Yihan spoke, she pointed to the area behind Yu Sanjing and was about to step forward when Yu Sanjing immediately reached out and stopped her, saying, "There's no need to look there. I've already searched very carefully and haven't found any passage."
“I’ll go look for it again. Maybe it was just an oversight on your part.” Leng Yihan showed no intention of backing down. Yu Sanjing hesitated for a moment, then quickly withdrew her hand. “Then let’s go look for it together.”
“Okay.” Leng Yihan nodded, and the three of them walked towards that area. For some reason, the strange feeling in their hearts grew stronger and stronger.
Is this Yu Sanjing... really Yu Sanjing herself?
Leng Yihan kept walking towards that place, towards a pile of shipping containers. The containers and all sorts of goods were stacked together, forming a maze-like place.
"This place is huge, it must be hard to find, right?" Leng Yihan glanced around a few times, then turned to Yu Sanjing and said.
"Hmm... I'm pretty efficient, but I might still miss something. Shall we split up and search?" Yu Sanjing said with a smile.
“No problem, splitting up will increase efficiency.” Leng Yihan agreed to Yu Sanjing’s suggestion. After entering, at the first fork in the road, the three of them split up and went in different directions into the maze.
"This place is a bit big... It's really beyond my imagination..." Leng Yihan muttered to herself, her footsteps echoing in the space, one step at a time.
