Every time I put down the burden in my hands, I feel like a life is gradually fading away in the darkness, and the water droplets fall from the sky, permeating the dirt on my clothes.

A drone, the size of a clothes hanger, flew through the dense bushes and suddenly descended above me!

"Don't act impulsively. If you use the shockwave thunder (jammer) at this time, it will be detected. Wait for it to fly away!"

It sounded easy, but the drone seemed to sense something unusual, so it didn't seem to have the intention to leave. Instead, it opened the life detection device and started scanning towards me.

"Beep beep beep..."

As if receiving some command, the drone quickly withdrew from the air. What on earth is happening?

"It seems like the troops at the camp are all moving to the north, which is to your right... Don't worry about that, go and save the people first!"

Guided by Krus, I quickly arrived at Koiznov's office, took out the gun, and set up the isolation space system.

"Bam!"

After a faint muffled sound, the door was kicked open.

"Don't... um, why is there no one?"

The entire military building became silent in an instant, like a haunted house. Well, it's good that no one will stop me from going to the dungeon.

Click!

I opened the switch of the dungeon, and a bright underground palace appeared underground.

"It's strange. This underground palace doesn't seem to be freshly built. It seems more like an underground relic that has experienced countless years!"

"Could it be..." After observing for a while, I exclaimed, "This is the Asura Temple?"

I activated the remote wireless monitoring device and prepared to let Krus study the traces of the surrounding years.

"Um, um, um..."

I became a bit impatient. "You've made so many 'um' sounds. Did you say anything or not?"

"It could be said, but it may not be!"

"Not?"

"Yes, but it's close. The outer area of the temple ruins is said to have a prison specifically for burying the deceased. It can't be wrong!"

Although I didn't find the real entrance, Krus couldn't contain his excitement from knowing the approximate location of the temple.

"Cough, cough, let's rescue your comrades first," Bruce coughed deliberately and changed the topic, "based on the information you provided, I hacked into all the surveillance cameras here. Take a left turn ahead and go downstairs, and you'll be there!"

"Understood!"

There are many cells on both sides of the road, but I don't have time to rescue everyone now. It's better to focus on the target mission first. After all, I'm not obligated to save others.

"Have all the security personnel searched for the escaped prisoners in the northern third district?" (Koiznov)

"Yes, Colonel! There are less than ten soldiers left in the entire dungeon. The two little girls knocked out the guards and released all the prisoners there!"

"Hmm, two little girls? Are you fucking kidding me?"

Koiznov angrily threw the cigar butt in his face and cursed, "I'm not paying you salary to raise a bunch of useless people!"

"But since they've escaped, let them go," Koiznov seemed to be a more open-minded person. After just thirteen seconds, he no longer lamented losing the prisoners.

"Our mission is complete, release him!"

"Release me?" Yuanhui couldn't believe his ears. This guy actually said he would release him!

Seeing Yuanhui staring at him persistently, Koiznov found it very annoying. Impatiently, he pulled out his gun and pointed it at him, "Get out of here. Should I use bullets to send you off? You are free!"

Released Yuanhui looked at him in disbelief, then stepped back to undo the restraints on Yu Xiang.

Bang!

A bullet grazed Yuanhui's scalp and hit the wall.

"I think I've been very clear," Kozlov said with a smile, squinting his eyes as he walked up to Yuanhui and pushed his hands away. "I only said that you can leave, not her!"

"...What do you mean?"

Yuanhui met Kozlov's gaze, and the peculiar smile on Kozlov's face, along with the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, gave him an uneasy feeling. It seemed that Kozlov had no intention of letting them all go.

"Didn't you hear clearly?"

Kozlov put on his white gloves and pointed at Yuanhui's face with the wrinkles on his forehead.

"I said you can leave, not all of you!" Kozlov emphasized, putting pressure on Yuanhui.

"Well, have you decided whether to give up your freedom?"

Kozlov's relentless pursuit made the situation more complicated. It seemed that it would be difficult to escape from this dungeon tonight. I clenched my teeth and prepared to break in and kill that cunning and sly colonel.

"Hold on," Kruz warned over the radio, "There are six soldiers, including Kozlov, guarding the room with your two friends. Don't act rashly!"

"Then what should I do? If I wait any longer, the pursuers outside will all come back!"

I shouted into the radio, the soldiers inside were already giving the order to retreat, and I was already in a tight spot!

"I advise you not to get involved in this mess. That girl is a wanted criminal by Vikerch!"

Vikerch's narrowed fox eyes and the drool hanging from his old face showed that they had already figured out Yuxiang's background, and perhaps even fantasized about collecting a bounty from Vikerch.

So that's how it is, hmph! This makes things easier...

"Colonel, I'm afraid you won't be able to collect that bounty!"

"Who?!" "You're not dead, Juxi!"

Kozlov and Yuanhui were both surprised and delighted, and almost everyone else pointed their guns at my head at the same time.

"It's me, Captain Hait!" In order to show my sincerity, I threw all the rifles and pistols in my hand on the ground and kicked them away to make a crisp sound.

"Are you crazy?" Kruz roared angrily over the radio, "Why did you come to your own death?!"

I ignored Kruz's reprimand, feeling that my previous efforts had been in vain.

"Wait!"

Kozlov motioned for everyone to put away their guns, and then asked me skeptically, "You say the reward Vikerch gave us is fake. What evidence do you have?"

"Colonel, don't listen to this person. He's playing mind games with us..."

"Quiet!" Kozlov interrupted the dissuader with a cold slap, then continued to interrogate me, "If you can't produce evidence, we will have to ask you to leave with that guy!"

"Well... of course I don't have any evidence," I said, and a row of gun barrels were raised and aimed at me. Kozlov also looked disappointed and said with a stern face, "Then please leave with your good friend, the door is behind."

"Hold on!" I sniffed, calmly saying, "Although I don't have any evidence, I can prove it to you!"

"Oh, how?" Kozlov asked with interest, always fond of making bets with others.

"We'll bet on whether you can collect the reward or not when the time comes."

Kozlov became very interested in my proposal, and immediately agreed to it.

"Hahaha, a bet!" Kozlov immediately released the iron chains on Yuxiang and made a gesture for us to follow him upstairs.

"I have contacted the people from Vokolchi, and they will arrive at the harbor of Lafitte tomorrow afternoon. As for the plan, it's entirely up to you!"

Finally, we have gained Koisnov's trust.

"Come, let's go to the living room to play cards and have some good food. We'll wait for tomorrow to start the game!"

Koisnov, like a child-like adult, hummed a little tune and walked ahead, while I followed closely, supporting Yuxiang step by step.

"Well done, kid," Kruce praised through the radio, but he still had some concerns about tomorrow's matter. He asked me, "But what will you do if Vokolchi fulfills the bonus tomorrow?"

"Don't worry," I snorted twice. "Vokolchi is not the kind of fool who would leave a stranger alive!"

(Shift to the dining table at the dinner)

"My plan is..."

When Koisnov took out the poker cards to start dealing, I wanted to take this opportunity to tell him our plan directly, but he raised his hand to stop me.

"Wait, hold on," Koisnov said calmly as he stuffed a piece of steak into his mouth, "it's luxurious. When we are eating well, there's no need to talk about so many useless things."

"But..."

"Would you like a glass of Da Vinci?"

"No, I'm underage, I don't drink alcohol!"

"Is that so?" Koisnov sadly dipped his index finger into the drink, then put his finger into his mouth to suck on it.

"Poor me, this good wine of mine is completely useless!"

"..." (Both I and Yuanhui had black lines on our faces, while Yuxiang remained expressionless)

I always feel that he is deliberately avoiding the topic. Is he another playboy? (I glanced at Yuanhui and got glared at by him)

"I am well aware that Vokolchi old man can take people away today, but it was agreed to be tomorrow...why?"

Koisnov put down his knife and fork meaningfully, then leaned closer to me and said, "Could it be that this girl is nothing more than a featherweight for them, or perhaps they want to gather firepower and kill us to keep it a secret?"

Wait, although he appeared skeptical of me on the surface, that finger stained with drink wrote a few words on the rough tabletop - The walls have ears!!

"Haha," I jokingly replied to him, "Look at what you're saying, I definitely don't think that way!"

I turned my head and gave Yuanhui a signal, pointing my finger at the words on the table.

"Understood!"

Yuanhui slowly moved to the window and suddenly pushed it open!

Bang! Bang! Crash!

In the moment the window shattered, a dark figure flew in and fell to the ground. It was indeed the chief of staff who advised him not to trust me!
