Using the faint moonlight, Yun Hao carefully scanned the surroundings. After walking about a kilometer, he finally found the battlefield, where numerous corpses lay, including those of the Netherworld Squad and some other mercenary teams. After a rough check, Yun Hao's heart sank!

The Netherworld Squad had fallen here with over twenty members dead. Although more of the enemy had perished, there were people from three mercenary teams among them. This meant that at least three mercenary teams had conspired to annihilate them!

Following the chaotic footprints on the ground, Yun Hao slowly pursued forward. Just as he passed a desolate broken wall, he paused, glanced around, crouched down, and took out the dagger he carried with him, scraping it against the wall, revealing a familiar mark in his eyes!

It was a mark similar to the character "beauty", exclusively belonging to Yun Hao and Liu Mengqi. Thanks to this mark, they had found each other more than once. Looking at the mark in front of him, Yun Hao's mind had a rough direction. After erasing the mark, he began running again!

As the running distance grew longer, Yun Hao's heart grew heavier. More than an hour had passed, yet there was still no news of Liu Mengqi. Meanwhile, he was drenched in sweat; don't think desert nights are genuinely cold; that's only the case in some areas.

Yun Hao had already been running for six or seven hours nonstop. In such a harsh environment, the physical toll was immense, but fortunately, Yun Hao was exceedingly familiar with this setting, coupled with his increased strength, he could still persevere!

Unsure how long he had run, only knowing that dawn was breaking in the east as the sky began to brighten, Yun Hao still hadn't found any clues. Helpless, he had to temporarily find a relatively safe spot to rest. It had been over ten hours since losing contact with Liu Mengqi!

At this moment, Yun Hao could only silently pray that Liu Mengqi would hold on!

"Bang!"

Just then, Yun Hao heard a gunshot, followed by a series of rapid gunfire. Instantly, his body tensed, crouched where he stood, eyes flashing, grabbed the nearby assault rifle, and ran toward the sound's origin. That area was a primitive forest, with truly chaotic terrain!

Coincidentally, as soon as he entered the forest edge, Yun Hao saw a familiar figure hiding and darting not far away. That explosive physique, perfect form—it could only be Ying'Er, who else?

It turned out Ying'Er had also been chased by those forces to this vicinity. Hearing the gunfire, she had ventured forward. Hence, the two of them meticulously coordinated, cautiously investigating towards the source of the gunfire!

Meanwhile, deep in the forest, Liu Mengqi was urgently discussing with Scorpion and several high-ranking members of Netherworld about what to do next?

Gunfire was getting closer not far from them, with casualties already over half. Only less than a hundred remained combat-capable, making the losses this time undoubtedly severe!

"Boss lady, we now have only two paths!" Scorpion, a man about 1.7 meters tall with a not-so-muscular build, yet his eyes always emitted a vicious intent. His left arm was bleeding continuously, yet he was still offering Liu Mengqi his advice!

"Which two paths?" Liu Mengqi furrowed her brows slightly, she hadn't expected to be trapped this time, especially by a mercenary team previously closely allied with them, conspiring with others to set a trap against them.

"The first is to gather up ammunition now and turn back to fight them. I believe with our brothers' capabilities, risking our lives, we can certainly carve out an escape path for you. Then you can find Mouse, Tank, and Cold Face. As long as you're together, the Netherworld Squad will rise again, and then you can avenge me and our brothers!"

"Yeah, boss lady, I think Scorpion's idea is great, let's do it!"

"Fight them, let them witness the strength of our Netherworld!"

"Fight!"

As Scorpion finished speaking, the surrounding members of the Netherworld Squad all excitedly cheered, each face brimming with expressions of facing death unflinchingly!

"Everyone shut up, that path won't work. I'm the one who led you out here, and we've already lost many brothers without reason. So let's take the other path; everyone, fortify the backline, and retreat into the forest interior in three minutes!" Liu Mengqi displayed her boss lady charisma, waving her hand decisively setting the strategy for the moment!

Upon hearing Liu Mengqi's words, everyone nodded solemnly. She was their leader sworn to follow to death, never abandoning them, always. Everyone knew, once entering the forest's interior, it would be exceptionally perilous, with too many unpredictable factors inside!

Not only were there numerous birds and beasts, venomous snakes and insects, but deeper inside, infrequent human presence, heavily shaded by trees, even sunlight couldn't penetrate, easily forming miasma—a risk if their dozens entered. If the enemies blocked the perimeter, they might become mere nourishment contributing to the forest's rampant growth!

At this moment, Liu Mengqi could only hope Yun Hao would arrive before they perished inside, although she knew the hope was faint since Yun Hao likely wasn't aware of their current predicament!

"Bang!"

Just as they prepared to enter the forest, Scorpion suddenly stopped, puzzled. Then, after listening intently for a few seconds, gleefully said to Liu Mengqi, "Boss lady, our reinforcements have arrived. Judging by the shooting frequency, Mouse must be here!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Mengqi also carefully distinguished among the chaotic gunfire. When she heard the rhythmic gunshots, a smile finally spread across her face. Turning to the numerous members, she said, "Brothers, your captain Asura has come to rescue us. Hold your weapons tightly, await my orders, ready to charge out at any moment!"

Upon hearing Yun Hao's arrival, everyone acted like they'd been given a shot of excitement, each one howling with delight. If Liu Mengqi was their boss lady, the Netherworld Squad's captain, then Yun Hao was the squad's soul, their invincible War God!

At this moment, Yun Hao, along with Ying'Er, attacked from two routes, like two Gods of Slaughter, continuously harvesting enemies on the perimeter. Despite over two hundred enemies remaining, under the assault of Asura and Black Widow, they were caught off guard. Within moments, their formation was in chaos!
