The butler robot replied: "Master, don't worry. Everything is fine at the base. Zhou Yan has properly settled the four new members you recruited and arranged jobs for them. You don't have to worry."

The four people the housekeeper mentioned were Ningning's family, whom they picked up in that small county town on the day they set out.

Ningning's special ability is to copy weapons. She had already told Zhou Yan about this through the housekeeper when she took in Ningning's family that day.

Therefore, Ningning's task after entering the base is to copy weapons.

Lu Xinyi hummed softly and asked, "What about the other bases? How are the Dawn Base, Rising Sun Base, and Water Cube Base doing?"

"We have not received any news from these three bases yet." The butler's voice was mechanical and electronic. "If there is any important news, I will tell the master immediately."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work."

"It is my duty to serve my master."

After finishing the conversation with the housekeeper, Lu Xinyi ate another half bowl of rice before putting down the bowl and chopsticks in his hands.

She stood up and left the table, walking slowly on the open space next to her to digest her food, looking lazily at the surrounding mountains.

April is the time of spring, when the grass and trees in the mountains and forests are full of vitality, and the green trees are sprouting fresh green buds, forming a distinct layer with the dark old leaves.

Lu Xinyi casually glanced at the mountains opposite, and suddenly, his eyes fell on a certain place in the forest.

The distance was more than five hundred meters, and her mental power could not reach there. She could only rely on her extraordinary vision to distinguish it.

It is a small, slightly reflective light spot, not obvious, but you can still capture it if you look closely.

A bad feeling suddenly arose in her heart, and she quickly turned around and said to the people behind her: "Stop eating, pack up and leave here quickly."

Hua Dai had just eaten a piece of goose meat, and there was still oil stains on her lips. She asked in confusion: "What's wrong? Why are you in such a hurry to leave?"

"There are people in the forest." Lu Xinyi said in a deep voice, "We are being targeted."

"What?" Hua Dai immediately became alert and looked around, "Where is it?"

As if to confirm her words, the sound of a bullet breaking through the air was heard as soon as she finished speaking.

When Lu Xinyi turned her head, she saw a bullet flying towards her at lightning speed.

Without even thinking about it, she immediately released the defensive barrier, blocking the bullets outside the barrier.

"Fuck, someone really attacked me!" Yuan Yi threw down the bowl in his hand, stood up, frowned and cursed, "Where is he? I'll kill him!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Yu Nan had swiftly climbed onto the roof of the car, lying on his stomach with a sniper rifle on his shoulder.

"Ms. Lu, please cover me in your defense barrier, thank you."

Lu Xinyi nodded, and the defense barrier expanded, covering Yu Nan and the jeep.

Geng Rui and his two companions knew that their fighting ability was low and they did not dare to hinder everyone else. They could only find a place to hide and try not to cause trouble for everyone else.

The others found places to hide and took out their guns and aimed at the forest opposite.

The situation between the two sides is on the verge of breaking out.

whoosh-

Another bullet flew over.

This time, the enemy did not aim at Lu Xinyi, but shot at Du Heng and Xia Lianqiao who were hiding behind the SUV.

However, the off-road vehicle's defense was at its maximum level, and the bullets hit the car body without leaving even a bullet hole, and it fell to the ground.

"I saw someone." Yu Nan pushed the gold-rimmed glasses on his nose.

Even though he was wearing glasses, it did not affect his vision at all. He looked focused and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

boom!

Gunshots rang out, shooting towards the woods opposite with unstoppable force.

Immediately afterwards, a faint scream was heard and the reflective spot suddenly disappeared.

"It's solved." Yu Nan said confidently.

"Are you alone?" Hua Dai asked, sticking her head out from behind the jeep and looking at the woods seriously.

"Not sure." Yu Nan looked at the opposite woods through the scope of the sniper rifle. "I only saw one person at the moment, but I can't rule out the possibility that there are teammates lying in ambush somewhere else."

"Then observe it for a while longer and don't take it lightly." Hua Dai warned.

"Yeah." Yu Nan responded and continued to observe.

With Yu Nan in charge of the investigation, Lu Xinyi retracted her gaze and looked at Qin Jue and the other three. Seeing that everyone was safe and sound, she felt relieved.

But at this moment, another sound of a bullet breaking through the air was heard.

But this time, it was from behind everyone.

"what!"

Yao Yue, who was hiding behind Geng Rui and Jack, was the first to be shot, and the bullet hit her left calf.

She fell forward onto Geng Rui and Jack due to inertia, and her face suddenly became full of unbearable pain.

"Yao Yue!" Geng Rui hurriedly supported her and asked worriedly, "How are you?"

Although he was a little annoyed by Yao Yue's spoiled temper, she was his companion for several months after all, and he couldn't bear to watch her get hurt.

"Hurry, help her into Miss Lu's defense barrier!" Hua Dai waved at the three people, then turned around and asked others to enter the defense barrier as well.

Fortunately, Lu Xinyi's defense barrier was spacious enough to accommodate everyone and a jeep.

The people hiding in the dark fired several more shots, but they all hit the defensive barrier.

"Have you found anyone?" Hua Dai looked up at Yu Nan on the roof of the car.

Yu Nan had already changed direction and was observing the woods behind him.

"I saw a man."

After saying this, he adjusted his breathing and fired decisively.

But the other party's reaction was also very quick. He quickly hid behind a big rock when he fired.

As a result, Yu Nan's bullet hit the stone.

"We are too passive," said Yu Nan. "The enemy is in the dark while I am in the light. They can see our every move, but we don't even know where they are."

"Then let's go?" Hua Dai raised her eyebrows.

“I’m afraid the other party won’t let us go easily.” Lu Xinyi’s voice was a little low, and he looked fiercely at the figures moving through the woods opposite.

The other party obviously didn't want to play hide-and-seek with them anymore. At this moment, the people hiding in the dark came out one after another, and the woods were filled with swaying figures.

Hua Dai also noticed the situation on the other side and said, "There must be at least 20 to 30 people here, right? How can we meet so many people in the wilderness?"

"Not only that, there are people behind us." Lu Xinyi calmed down and said, "This is not the wilderness. According to the map, there is a city about 20 kilometers away from here."

"You know all this?" Hua Dai looked at her in surprise. "Did you memorize the map?"

"Now is not the time to talk about this." Lu Xinyi pointed at the figures in the woods opposite, "They are coming."

Yu Nan's voice also sounded at the right time: "The people on the mountain behind are also coming down."

Soon, fifty or sixty people ran down from the woods in front and behind the crowd. Each of them was armed with a gun, and the black muzzle of the gun was pointed at the crowd without hesitation.
