"Stop them! Kill them! Kill them!" Lei Laohu roared, looking like a madman, the flames on his body suddenly surged, transforming into a raging wall of fire, attempting to block Su Wan and their fierce firepower.
On the square, a brutal melee completely broke out.
Xiao Han stared intently at Xiao Lei, who was lying on the ground, his fists clenched tightly, his nails deeply embedded in his palms, and blood seeping from between his fingers.
The submachine gun in Su Wan's hand did not stop for a moment; every bullet accurately pierced the bodies of the enemies attempting to close in.
Her arms tingled from the recoil of the firearm.
"A Mo, drive through, get closer to Xiao Han and them!"
A Mo remained silent, expressionless, but his movements were incredibly swift as he abruptly turned the steering wheel.
The modified off-road vehicle let out a low, beast-like roar, skillfully dodging and weaving through the dense hail of bullets, forcefully crashing towards where Xiao Han and Xiao Lei lay.
The heavy machine gun on the roof, at this moment, transformed into the scythe of death, mercilessly spewing deadly bullets, continuously harvesting the lives of the enemies, forcibly carving out a blood-soaked path for them.
Lei Laohu watched as the situation rapidly deteriorated, completely spiraling out of his control, a surge of fury rushing to his head, almost driving him insane.
He had originally thought he had victory firmly in his grasp, that Lu Shiyan was merely a turtle in a jar, but he never expected the opponent's backup plan to be so sharp, catching him off guard!
He roared in rage, the flames in his hands surging again, condensing into several explosive fireballs the size of washbasins, carrying an aura of destruction, and fiercely smashing towards the rapidly approaching off-road vehicle!
"Be careful!"
Lu Shiyan's voice came in time; he had already dealt with the few thugs around Xiao Han and was bending down, trying to pick up the unconscious Xiao Lei.
Su Wan's pupils suddenly contracted; the scorching fireballs, carrying destructive high temperatures and impact force, whistled towards them, moving so fast that they didn't leave her any time or space to dodge!
Just at this critical moment of life and death, a flash of inspiration struck Su Wan's mind, and she made a decisive decision, shouting sharply, "A Mo, abandon the vehicle!"
Almost at the same instant her words fell, her mind moved rapidly!
The huge modified off-road vehicle, along with Su Wan inside it, instantly vanished from its original spot without a trace!
A Mo had already reacted the moment Su Wan spoke, agilely leaping from the driver's seat, quickly rolling behind a cover, and his submachine gun started firing again, continuing to provide suppressing fire.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Several deafening explosions followed one after another!
Several huge fireballs fiercely struck the spot where the off-road vehicle had just been, creating several charred deep pits in the ground, with dirt flying, shattered stones scattering, and scorching air currents mixed with thick gunpowder smoke wildly sweeping in all directions.
Lei Laohu's full-power attack missed, and his movements paused slightly.
Where's the car? Where are the people? What's going on?!
The next second, under his astonished gaze, Su Wan's figure appeared without warning not far from where Xiao Han and Xiao Lei lay.
Her appearance was so abrupt, as if she had teleported out of thin air.
"Space Ability!"
The thought flashed through Lei Laohu's mind like lightning; he instantly realized that this woman possessed such a rare ability!
He had heard of it before; such an ability was one in a million, and he never expected to witness it firsthand today, and on such a troublesome enemy at that!
Su Wan didn't have time to think much and quickly bent down to check on Xiao Lei's condition.
Xiao Lei's breath was extremely weak, a trace of blood still hung from the corner of his mouth, and his face was deathly pale, like transparent thin paper, devoid of any color.
Her heart sank suddenly; the situation was bad, very bad!
"Xiao Han, can you still move?" Su Wan asked urgently.
Xiao Han struggled, trying to get up from the ground, but having been tied up and beaten for a long time, he had multiple injuries on his body, and his bones felt like they were falling apart, making him feel somewhat powerless for a moment.
He looked at Xiao Lei, whose life hung in the balance on the ground, his eyes instantly turning bloodshot, his voice hoarse and unrecognizable: "Xiao Lei...Xiao Lei, he..."
"Don't talk about that yet! We must leave here immediately!" Su Wan said decisively, leaving no room for doubt.
She concentrated again, and with a thought, the off-road vehicle that had just disappeared reappeared out of thin air beside her!
"Get in the car!" Su Wan grabbed Xiao Han's arm and used all her strength to drag him into the vehicle.
Just then, A Mo's figure also appeared beside the off-road vehicle like a ghost; he held a micro submachine gun in each hand and, without a word, unleashed a furious volley of gunfire at the enemies who were fearlessly closing in again, his powerful firepower temporarily suppressing their offensive.
Lu Shiyan had also shaken off several difficult opponents at this point, and with a few swift movements, he arrived beside the off-road vehicle.
He first glanced at the situation inside the vehicle, then looked at Xiao Lei on the ground, his expression complex and unreadable.
"Xiao Lei, he..." Xiao Han's voice choked, with a hint of a sob.
Lu Shiyan bent down and gently picked up Xiao Lei, his movements surprisingly gentle, a rare sight.
He reached out to check Xiao Lei's breath and felt his carotid artery, his brows instantly furrowing into a deep frown.
"Get in the car first!" Lu Shiyan's voice was low as he handed Xiao Lei to Xiao Han in the back seat, then quickly got into the driver's seat himself.
A Mo also nimbly jumped into the passenger seat.
"Trying to leave? Not so easy!" Lei Laohu's angry roar came from behind; he had caught up, his figure as fast as lightning, flames churning in his hands, transforming into two ferocious, evil fire snakes, baring their fangs and claws as they pounced towards the off-road vehicle!
He absolutely could not let Lu Shiyan escape from under his nose with the energy stone and this woman who possessed Space Ability!
Lu Shiyan's eyes turned cold, and he sharply turned the steering wheel!
The off-road vehicle's tires screeched against the ground, and the vehicle, at an extremely dangerous angle, narrowly avoided the deadly attack of the two fire snakes.
At the same time, he controlled the steering wheel with one hand, while lightning flashed in the palm of his other hand, a bolt of lightning thicker than before condensed out of thin air, carrying immense power, fiercely striking the pursuing Lei Laohu!
"Boom!"
A loud bang!
Lei Laohu was caught off guard; although he had instantly protected his body with flames, he was still directly struck by the violent lightning, his entire body shaking as his blood and qi churned, his movements involuntarily stalling, and his clothes becoming charred and disheveled.
"Lei Laohu, for what you've given today, I, Lu Shiyan, will repay it twofold in the future!"
Lu Shiyan's voice clearly came through the car window.
Xiao Han tightly held Xiao Lei in his arms, tears streaming down his face uncontrollably, like broken pearls.
Xiao Lei's body was getting colder and colder, and his breathing was becoming weaker and weaker, almost inaudible.
"Xiao Lei...you hang on...you must hang on...you can't die...your sister...your sister is still waiting for you to find her..." Xiao Han spoke incoherently.
Su Wan sat in the back seat, her heart also aching.
She took out various first aid medicines from her Space Ability, but...which one was suitable for his current condition? Xiao Lei had completely lost consciousness and showed no reaction to external stimuli.
Lu Shiyan glanced at the back seat through the rearview mirror; Xiao Lei...was not doing well.
"Han Ge...I...I'm sorry..."
A voice so faint it was barely audible escaped Xiao Lei's cracked lips.
He struggled to open his eyes slightly, looking at Xiao Han, his once clear eyes now filled with deep apology and strong reluctance.
"I...I lied to you...actually...actually, I already knew...Scorpion...Scorpion, he..."
He couldn't finish his sentence; his head gently tilted, and he completely lost all signs of life.
Those eyes, which once shone with the innocent light of youth, were now dim, forever closed.
"Xiao Lei—!!!"
"Xiao Lei..." Su Wan also couldn't help but cry softly.
Suddenly, Xiao Han sharply raised his head, "Wait, Li Kui and Xin Hu are still tied up outside the base, we must go save them!"
