Soon everyone started moving quickly, their hearts filled with trendous fear.
The unexpected incident happened too suddenly, turning from heaven one second to hell the next.
--------------------
On the other side, in a dark and oppressive cavern.
Silhouettes leaned against the earthen walls.
By the dim glow emitted from the fluorescent stones, the figures curled up here could be seen clearly, including survivors from the Federation and people from various major countries.
These people were none other than the survivors of the Dark Dusk Base.
However, they did not share much joy from surviving, as most wore expressions of pain, numbness, fear, and despair.
At this mont, so painful moans could be heard, coming from those who were injured.
Due to the lack of treatnt, many injured lay on the ground, in a daze, between life and death.
Yet their companions beside them were powerless to change anything, as they could barely protect themselves. Most of the people here had lips so cracked they bled, their complexions sallow, and spirits sowhat scattered.
The Dark Dusk Base fell much earlier than other bases, forcing everyone to flee hastily without taking much survival supplies.
Moreover, hiding here was not necessarily safe, as tunnels extending from the cavern almost daily produced monsters. People were always dying tragically, and no one could guarantee they wouldn’t be discovered by higher form monsters the next second. The shadow of death lood over everyone.
...
In a corner, an exhausted NCO spoke almost despairingly.
"Lord Lin Ming, do we still have hope?"
"Hang in there, we will definitely wait for rescue."
Lin Ming said in a deep voice.
"I feel like I can’t hold on much longer."
"Don’t say that, trust , I will definitely get you all out alive."
Lin Ming bit his teeth and said.
...
On the other side of the cavern, a commotion suddenly arose.
Dozens of people in third-generation chanical Armor were seen being knocked to the ground.
"Let go."
A burly man in fourth-generation chanical Armor, clutching a dical box, shouted angrily.
"No, absolutely not, this is mine...."
A sowhat frail man clung tightly, refusing to let go.
"Looking for death!"
The burly man kicked him, sending him flying.
"Brother Aphis, are you okay?"
A companion nearby hurriedly got up and rushed towards the man who had been kicked away.
Aphis shook his head, struggled to get up, and stared angrily at the person who had robbed him, saying.
"Give it back to us, that’s the only supply we have left, our companions are still waiting for it to save their lives."
"Who can prove that it’s yours? It clearly belongs to us."
The burly man said unreasonably.
"Nonsense, everyone saw it clearly, Jakul, your actions are simply disgracing the chanical Empire."
Aphis angrily rebuked.
"Who saw it?"
Jakul turned his head and scanned the watching crowd.
The nearby onlookers, seeing the situation, all turned their heads aside. The law of the jungle was common enough, especially in such an environnt, it happened frequently.
In addition, the chanical Empire itself was powerful and domineering, who would want to make trouble with them?
They might get into trouble as well.
"You!"
Aphis’s eyes were filled with blood, gritting his teeth as he said.
"Another word, and I’ll kill you all!"
Jakul said venomously. If it weren’t for worrying about causing public outrage, he indeed thought about killing Aphis to shut him up!
"Forget it, Brother Aphis."
At this mont, Aphis’s companion stepped forward and pulled him back.
Lin Ming in the corner watched the scene before him, his brow furrowed tightly.
At this mont, Li Cheng ca over, took out a Nutrition Bar, and handed it to Lin Ming, saying: "Brother, have so, don’t worry about that. This is not the first or second ti sothing has happened, but fortunately, those guys are sowhat restrained and haven’t caused any fatalities."
"I’m not hungry, leave it for the brothers below,"
Lin Ming shook his head and refused and didn’t refute Li Cheng’s words. Although he really despised such things, the current situation for his brothers following him was terrible; he wouldn’t risk their lives for unrelated people.
It’s known among the survivors here, the chanical Empire and its ally countries’ people were the strongest.
"Brother Lin Ming, please eat, it’s been a while since you last ate."
Li Cheng persuaded.
Just then, unusual noises suddenly ca from the external passage.
The person who had been guarding the passage imdiately gestured to silence, whispering: "Sothing’s happening!"
Instantly, everyone in the cavern drew portable weapons, nervously preparing to fight.
Lin Ming and so of the experts in the cavern rushed to the cha beside them, ready to activate them for battle at any mont.
At this point, the commotion grew louder, muffled sounds constantly echoed.
Everyone’s nerves were tense; so swallowed hard.
Many silently prayed that nothing would co.
Suddenly, a pair of scarlet eyes appeared at the mouth of the dark passage.
In an instant, everyone fired, beams of light shot out.
But all those beams were blocked by a Stance Barrier, sparks flying everywhere.
An alien, mantis-like being, covered with a layer of special patterned shell, a horrific head protruding, its mouth full of sharp fangs, and two knives gleaming coldly, along with a long tail spine, manifested, emitting a terrifying aura.
"It’s over! It’s a V-type Heroic Level alien!"
Soone in the cavern identified it and shouted in despair.
Imdiately, everyone was on high alert, except Lin Ming, who couldn’t help but frown and stand still.
At this mont, an abrupt voice sounded from behind the alien.
"Move aside, you’re blocking the way."
Su Mo said very unhappily.
The terrifying alien imdiately stepped aside, then Su Mo appeared in front of everyone.
For a mont, the scene beca dead silent, everyone was too stunned to speak.
Su Mo looked at the people before him, took a deep breath, and let out a smile.
"I finally found you."
"Su Mo!"
The people from the Federation were the first to burst out in ecstatic shouts.
At this ti, other survivors on the scene also showed joyful expressions, as if relief had finally arrived.
Lin Ming opened his cockpit and jumped from the cha, hugging Su Mo excitedly.
"Su Mo, why are you here?"
"It’s not just , the support troops have arrived, but I have to say, hiding here made it really hard to find you!"
Su Mo said with a smile.
No sooner had he finished speaking, a commotion ca from the passage behind Su Mo, followed by the arrival of search and rescue personnel from various countries.
Among them was Lin Yaotian and others.
"Lin Ming!"
Lin Yaotian called out happily.
"Father!"
Seeing Lin Yaotian, Lin Ming’s eyes imdiately filled with tears.
