"Have soone set the explosives inside the base, with detonation ti configured to twenty minutes."
Hearing this, Chen Zongming was surprised, "You want to destroy this base? No way, these explosives are our only hope for survival, our breakout relies entirely on them. If we waste them here, what chance do we have left?"
"This base holds too many secrets, it cannot fall into the enemy’s hands. If not for this reason, why would we have held on for so long? Enough! No more argunts, this is my order, carry it out."
Soon, a whole box of explosives was installed at every corner of the base. With the detonation ti set, porridge girl picked up the riot shield, gripping the only two smoke grenades in one hand, and strode towards the exit of the base.
As she passed through the blood-stained passageway, porridge girl saw the exit within reach, clenched her teeth, and directly threw the two smoke grenades out.
As thick smoke spread, a series of ’bang bang’ sounds erupted from outside the base.
Suddenly, under the tank’s salvo, shells crazily surged in, landing at the base’s exit.
Boom! Boom!
Flas burst forth, stones scattered, the entire exit was shrouded in thick dust, mixing with the smoke.
Porridge girl raised the riot shield, her eyes fixed ahead. Due to obstructions from the dust and smoke, visibility was very low.
"Go, charge out!"
Porridge girl whispered urgently, tiptoed lightly, and her body quickly dashed out. She knew, the tanks outside needed ti to reload shells, this brief ten-odd seconds was her only chance to rush out.
Half of her body had just crossed the exit before a volley of bullets imdiately hit the riot shield, pressure instantly increased.
If not for the riot shield’s protection, porridge girl’s body would likely have been riddled with holes.
Despite the pressure, porridge girl did not stop, she pressed forward step by step. Soon, those tanks appeared in her sight.
"Scatter!" porridge girl shouted loudly.
Upon hearing her call, everyone following behind quickly dispersed. At the sa ti, the tanks’ artillery fired out with a roar. Fortunately, thanks to porridge girl’s tily reminder, the shells did not injure everyone but fell in the sandy terrain, kicking up countless grains of sand.
Under the explosion’s impact, even a tiny grain of sand could be lethal. Several n who didn’t run in ti were instantly pierced by sand grains, falling in pools of blood.
Affected by the shock wave, porridge girl’s body jerked forward, tumbling to the ground, and the riot shield in her hand fell off.
Without the riot shield’s protection, bullets crazily shot towards her, landing around porridge girl.
Seeing companions falling continuously around her, porridge girl couldn’t help but close her eyes. She knew, at this mont, no matter how skilful she was, she couldn’t change the outco.
Today, she and everyone else were destined to die.
"Congratulations, Mr. Zhu, on successfully defeating the enemy."
Outside the tent, a man congratulated. Zhu Hong stood with his hands clasped behind his back, quietly watching the dust-covered battlefield, his lips slightly curled in a cold sneer.
A bunch of overconfident idiots, daring to fight tanks with flesh and blood, they’re courting death.
"Mr. Zhu, do you want to keep any alive?"
"No need, kill them all, I’m not interested in wasting ti on them."
"Yes!"
The order was given, and the firepower intensified several fold. Under the bullet’s suppression, porridge girl, Chen Zongming, and the others couldn’t even rise, they lay on the ground, quietly waiting for death to descend.
"I’m sorry." Chen Zongming turned his head, looking at porridge girl not far away, eyes filled with apology.
"There’s nothing to apologize to for, this is our fate."
Chen Zongming forced a smile, saying, "If we survive, I would definitely pursue you. Actually, ever since you ca to this base, I fell for you, it’s just, you’ve always been so cold that I didn’t know how to approach. If... if we live, would you give a chance?"
"Sorry, even if we survive, I won’t accept your pursuit, I... already have a man."
Upon hearing this, Chen Zongming appeared bitter, "At this point, can’t you say sothing nice? Making sad before I die, you really are..." Chen Zongming sighed, asking, "What kind of person is your man? Comparing him to , who do you think is better?"
"Does it have any aning now?"
"I know it doesn’t an much, I’m just curious, what kind of person could win you over?"
"He..." porridge girl hesitated for a mont, said, "In others’ eyes, he may not seem like a good man, but to , he is worth sacrificing everything for."
"Why?"
"Since I was sensible, my Master told , you have a fiancé, your life’s sole purpose is for him. All these years, I’ve strived towards this goal, hoping to protect his safety."
Chen Zongming said angrily, "So, to you, that man is rely a responsibility, a task, not love. If that’s the case, then you’re really pitiful. As for that man, humph! Just a loathso bastard, needed protection from a woman, isn’t he a coward? And your Master, forcibly taking over your happiness, making decisions for you, it’s no different from a robber."
"Shut up!" porridge girl responded in discontent, "Don’t insult my Master and my man, this is my willing choice, it has nothing to do with anyone else."
"Porridge girl, why are you so stubborn? We’ve reached this point, can’t you think for yourself? Thinking of that bastard man is pointless, do you expect that coward to save you?"
"I..."
Porridge girl opened her mouth, about to respond, but at that mont, a bullet suddenly flew along the ground, hitting her arm, blood flowing from the wound.
"Porridge girl!"
Alard, Chen Zongming quickly got up, wanting to rush over and protect porridge girl. However, as soon as he stood, a burst of bullets shot towards him, forcing him back down.
Seeing porridge girl’s painful expression, Chen Zongming clenched his fists, yet had no solution, only anxiously lying on the ground.
Clang clang clang!
Suddenly, a crisp clattering sound entered porridge girl’s ears.
Porridge girl struggled to lift her head, only to see a solid riot shield propped in front of her, blocking all the bullets.
"How are you, alright?"
A familiar voice rang out, instantly giving porridge girl the urge to cry. Throughout, she never yearned for Ling Chen’s arrival as much as today.
Seeing porridge girl’s slightly red eyes, Ling Chen smiled gently, "I’ve never seen you cry before. Sorry, I’m a bit late. Co, I’ll carry you away."
