"We won't abandon you, Chief. We agreed to face danger together. What kind of people would we be if we ran off alone?"

"That's right, we live or die together."

...

Su Mo and the others were deeply moved by this scene.

Lin Ming and the others suppressed their emotions and turned to look at Su Mo.

"Is there another way?"

"If there isn't, we'll make one. Everyone, follow me!"

With a wave of his hand, Su Mo led everyone onward, running as fast as they could.

"Keep up, don't let anyone fall behind!"

Lin Ming and the others shouted.

Although they had given up a shortcut to escape, the surviving members were incredibly united, and their morale was high.

In Su Mo's mind, Artificial intelligence, Devourer said disdainfully,

"Foolish!"

Despite the criticism, Artificial intelligence, Devourer still re-planned Su Mo's escape route. However, this route was much longer and required many twists and turns.

There was no way to shake off the security guards behind them instantly.

If someone could see a flat view of the underground tunnel area, they would witness a shocking sight.

There wasn't just one group of security guards chasing Su Mo and his team. They were coming from all directions.

However, Su Mo led everyone, winding east and west, like threading a needle, managing to escape from the encirclement and perfectly avoid the security guards.

Within the underground tunnel complex, one security guard after another gradually lost track of them, and then searched around aimlessly like headless flies.

Several hours later.

Su Mo and the others descended into an abandoned tunnel. The entire tunnel seemed to stretch on forever, with no end in sight, and no idea where it led.

He led everyone to hide in a recessed maintenance area in the middle of the abandoned tunnel, which could serve as a temporary hiding place.

Somewhat wearily, Su Mo said to everyone, "We're safe for now, everyone. Let's rest here for a while."

Hearing Su Mo's words, the tense nerves of Witke and the others immediately relaxed. Many people sat down on the spot, exhausted, each one extremely tired.

They hadn't just been chased for a few hours.

Before that, they had been doing high-intensity work, then desperately defending, and then inexplicably falling into this hellhole.

They had almost been smashed to death, and then they had to endure high-intensity rescue and escape.

It was a good thing they were all top-notch elites, or they would have found it difficult to hold on until now.

Lin Ming clapped his hands and said in a deep voice, "School-level personnel, count the number of injured and the supplies and weapons you have on you."

Upon hearing this, the officers perked up and began to count one by one.

Everyone present began to rummage through the things they were carrying.

Su Mo was no exception, but when he touched himself, his expression became somewhat awkward.

Apart from an automatic pistol, a set of Type II mechanical armor that Mo Bake had lent him, and a few nutrient bars, he had nothing else. He couldn't be any poorer.

Soon, the counting was completed.

Lin Ming, Witke, Qian Chengxue, and other senior officers all gathered together.

Witke said in a deep voice, "Our situation isn't good. The food we have on hand, calculated at two meals a day, is only enough to last us four days. This is only because we found a lot of it in the crashed ship and didn't abandon it when we escaped. As for weapons, ammunition is also scarce, and we lack heavy weapons. As for the number of injured, there are a total of one hundred and twenty-one minor injuries, which are fine. But there are twelve people with quite serious injuries, who have difficulty moving. Fortunately, they have all been treated with emergency medicine, so the situation is temporarily stable."

Lin Ming hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at Su Mo.

"Su Mo, what's your opinion?"

"First, rest and recover your strength. The place we're in now is only temporarily safe, and we can't stay here for long. After we've rested, we have to leave here. As for the lack of supplies, we can only wait until we find a safe place and then find a way to explore. I've observed a little, and although there are machines all around, I feel that the architecture in this area looks like it was designed by humans, not purely by robots. If we explore carefully, we should be able to find supplies to survive."

Su Mo thought for a moment and said.

"Sigh, what the hell is this place?"

Witke said irritably.

"I don't know either."

Su Mo shook his head; he really didn't know. But even if Su Mo really knew what this place was, he wouldn't dare to say it. The fact that he had guided everyone to escape twice was already suspicious enough. If he kept blabbing, people wouldn't admire him, they would be afraid of him.

"Don't be too discouraged, everyone. The Black Obsidian should not have fallen. I believe Lord Li Ruiqi and the others are definitely trying to rescue us. What we need to do now is to unite and survive as much as possible."

Seeing that morale was a little low, Kalinsa encouraged everyone.

"Okay, let's rest first."

Lin Ming's expression softened a lot. Although the situation wasn't good, at least they could catch their breath.

.....

In the crowd not far away, Lin Yixuan sat alone on the ground, occasionally looking at Lin Ming and the others who were meeting, with a somewhat complicated expression.

He also longed to participate, even if he couldn't make decisions, even if it was just to run errands for his big brother.

Unfortunately, reality made it impossible.

Although his big brother Lin Ming had never disliked him, he also wouldn't really let him fight alongside him, after all, he would only be a burden.

Just then, Lin Yixuan's gaze involuntarily shifted to the other side.

In the area on the right, a pink-haired girl wearing a body-hugging second-generation mechanical armor, with a rather delicate appearance, was talking softly with several companions, like a moon surrounded by stars.

Lin Yixuan couldn't help but lower his head.

Several hours later, after resting, everyone had recovered a lot of strength and energy.

Su Mo leaned against the metal wall to rest. At this time, he was constantly communicating with Artificial intelligence, Devourer.

"Can you be sure that we're safe if we escape in that direction?"

"Safety and insecurity depend on relative points of reference. There is no safe place in the area where you are. In addition, so many people are moving, making so much noise. No one can guarantee safety. Sooner or later, you will be discovered. Think about it carefully."

Artificial intelligence, Devourer replied in a deep voice.

At this time, Qian Chengxue walked to Su Mo's side and called out softly.

"Su Mo."

Su Mo came back to his senses and quickly stood up, somewhat nervously responding.

"Sister Xue."

Qian Chengxue looked at the somewhat restrained Su Mo, and suddenly smiled, saying, "Thank you for what happened last time."

Su Mo shook his head and replied, "You're welcome, it's what I should do."

Qian Chengxue felt a warmth in her heart, and was about to say something subconsciously.

At this time, Kalinsa walked over and said elegantly, "Sorry to interrupt your conversation."

"Ahem, no."

Su Mo replied somewhat awkwardly.
