The scout lowered his body again. He didn’t compete with Lin Yu for the "adventure" opportunity. Because he knew that whether the people went forward or stayed behind, their situation wouldn’t be much better. It was just a matter of dying sooner or later. After receiving his reply, Lin Yu slowly got up and started moving toward the empty track nearby. He cautiously controlled his body, occasionally glancing back, judging the right moment to swiftly leave the shelter through the scout’s hand gestures. Their teamwork was remarkably tacit, and within just a few seconds, Lin Yu had crossed the open space and reached beneath the empty track. But from this moment, the real danger began. With a leap, he gently grasped the overhead empty track rail, simultaneously flipping over while controlling the knife handle. Without making a sound, the drones in the distant light zone hadn’t detected his presence. Next, he had to traverse northeast along the empty track, crossing above a light zone to reach the edge of that "park". Once discovered midway, he wouldn’t even have a chance to regret. Suspended in mid-air, he wouldn’t have space to dodge. Even with the simplest rifle, they could shoot him down directly. Lin Yu’s heart began to pound violently as he moved forward cautiously. But just as he was about to reach the edge of the light zone. Suddenly, chaos erupted! A piercing siren blared suddenly and began to echo throughout the city! At that instant, Lin Yu’s hair stood on end! He had been discovered! He clearly hadn’t reached the light zone yet! How was this possible?! Lin Yu urgently wanted to quickly return the way he came because he knew that if he stayed on the track, he was as good as dead. Adrenaline surged and his body desperately squeezed out its remaining energy. His movements sped up, even in the narrow space above the track, he managed to turn around. But as he was turning, his gaze swept over the light zone below. The drones down there... were not aiming at him. No, fleeing isn’t accurate. After all, the actions of those drones were quite orderly and methodical. To be precise, they were retreating! Retreating in the same direction! This absurd thought flashed through Lin Yu’s mind, but at this moment, he couldn’t afford to think too much. This was an excellent opportunity. If he wanted to cross the light zone, he had to seize this moment! He swiftly gestured to the distant scout, and upon seeing Lin Yu’s expression and the movements of those drones, the scout reacted quickly. Without hesitation, the scout swiftly traversed the path that Lin Yu had just taken. At this point, he didn’t bother to glance again at the light zone. Bet they couldn’t see him! The scout moved even faster than Lin Yu, not caring about the sound of collisions with the track. Ahead, Lin Yu also realized it upon hearing the noise. Why be so restrained?? The loud siren is your best cover! The two no longer had any restraints and advanced along the track. They quickly crossed the track and reached a building at the edge of the light zone. Lin Yu ordered again, and without stopping, the two leapt down the stairs between floors, rapidly descending. But just as they were about to reach the bottom, Lin Yu suddenly halted. The scout behind him couldn’t react quickly enough and collided with his back, and just at that moment when Lin Yu stumbled. A scorching bullet grazed past the two of them, and when the scout looked up, what appeared before him was a... Mountain City person clad in armor! The scout instinctively drew the long knife from his waist, but before he could stabilize his posture to attack, the Mountain City person abruptly turned. With a leap, the figure of the Mountain City person vanished. Lin Yu’s heart pounded fiercely. If it weren’t for the scout’s collision just now, that bullet would likely have penetrated his skull! Yet even so, the opponent still had the advantage. Why didn’t he keep shooting? Why did he turn and run?? Lin Yu quickly ran toward the direction where the Mountain City person disappeared, and when his gaze crossed the railing and looked below, he was shocked to find that on the illuminated streets below, far more than one Mountain City person were running. They indeed were fleeing. Lin Yu was momentarily unable to react, but the scout behind him suddenly shouted: "This is a fucking air raid alert!" "I’ve heard this sound before!" "It’s hand-cranked! I found something in the ruins of Tong City!" "There’s something in the sky!" "It’s the Huaxia Army! The Huaxia Army is here!" Upon hearing this, Lin Yu was suddenly enlightened. But immediately after, immense panic surged to his heart. The Huaxia Army had arrived, but what were they here for? There was only one answer. To drop nuclear bombs. They knew from him that nuclear bombs could disable the Mountain City, so what would be the best combat strategy for a decision-maker? To repeat what has already been done! Lin Yu shouted frantically. "Head down! Find an underground shelter and hide!" "We need to survive the nuclear bomb first and then consider other things!" The scout also recognized the severity of the issue and grabbed Lin Yu, who wanted to leap to the street, and immediately said: "Stay in the building!" "Let’s keep going down; these buildings have space underground!" "At least it’s safer than being on the street!" Lin Yu also slightly regained his senses at this point, and the two went all the way down. After pushing open a door with four large characters they couldn’t understand that read "Civil Defense Project," they entered the basement space of this building. The space was still empty. But at this moment, he felt an unusual sense of security. "When will the nuclear bomb arrive?" "I don’t know." Thɪs chapter is updated by novel-fire.ɴet Lin Yu shook his head and replied: "It might not arrive at all." "After all, they have already used a nuclear bomb once, and the people here should be prepared." "The same strategy can’t be used twice on the Mountain City people; this is what the Huaxia Army has said." "We’ll just wait a while; those Mountain City people have already retreated." "Even if there’s no nuclear bomb, we can still..." Before he could finish, a deafening but slightly vague explosion sounded. Immediately, a mild tremor followed. It must be a nuclear bomb, undoubtedly. But it seemed like the explosion was far away?? Did it land outside the city?? Can it still be effective? No matter if it’s useful or not, we must go out and see! Lin Yu pulled the scout, and they quickly climbed back up the stairs. Blistering winds pressed against them, but Lin Yu couldn’t see the iconic mushroom cloud from a nuclear explosion. Lin Yu slightly frowned, but just at this moment. A flash appeared on the horizon. Lin Yu suddenly realized. "Back underground! The attack isn’t over!" The scout followed closely behind Lin Yu, eagerly asking: "What’s the Huaxia Army doing??" With labored breathing, it was only after they finally returned underground that Lin Yu began to speak: "They’re advancing, they’re advancing!" "They’re paving the way with nuclear bombs... from far to near!" "I don’t know why they’re doing this!" "But the second explosion we heard definitely won’t be the last nuclear bomb!" As he finished speaking, the third explosion sounded. This time, the tremors were quite intense. The explosion point was getting closer! Lin Yu yelled into the scout’s ear. A devastating explosion sounded as if it were beside them...
