I started with a portal, then turned around and handed it over to the nation.

Li Na gave a low shout and tore open the combat uniform on her nailed arm.

The black arrow was deeply embedded in the muscle, almost piercing through the arm. The skin around the wound began to turn black and was spreading rapidly.

Li Na's face immediately darkened. She quickly took out a syringe filled with light blue liquid and a pair of surgical scissors from her medical kit.

"Scissors." She didn't look up, her voice calm.

The teammate next to him immediately handed it over.

Instead of pulling out the arrow, she used surgical scissors to swiftly and cleanly cut off the fletching of the arrow shaft, leaving only a small section embedded in the flesh for later treatment.

Then, without hesitation, she injected the pale blue liquid from the syringe into the vein next to the nail wound.

"Broad-spectrum antitoxin serum, first suppress the spread of the toxin." Li Na's voice came through the headset to the command channel, "But the composition of this otherworldly toxin is unknown, I need time..."

Before he could finish speaking, Lin Mo and Ryan had already rushed over.

Raine immediately noticed the rapidly spreading black patch on Nail's arm, and then saw Li Na's solemn expression. His mind went blank, and he suddenly grabbed Lin Mo's arm.

"The medicine! Your medicine!" he stammered, his voice hoarse, pointing to the wound on the nail. "That medicine! Quickly!!"

Lin Mo reacted instantly.

Without saying a word, he took out the small crystal bottle from the innermost pocket of his tactical vest.

Inside the bottle, the dreamlike liquid shimmered faintly in the flames of the explosion.

"Give it to him!" Lin Mo shoved the bottle into Li Na's hand.

Li Na was taken aback, looking at the thing in her hand and then at Lin Mo, her eyes full of questions.

"Stop asking! Hurry up!!" Lin Mo roared.

Without further hesitation, Li Na unscrewed the bottle stopper, lifted the nail head, and poured in all the pale golden liquid.

On the other side of the battlefield, the battle was drawing to a close.

The Snow Wolf and Fierce Tiger team members, like a group of cold ghosts, roamed the battlefield littered with corpses.

boom!

A goblin that was still convulsing was shot again, its head exploded, and it fell completely still.

boom!

The other guy, who was pretending to be dead, tried to move, but was stepped on and a gun was pressed against his back, resulting in another muffled thud.

They examined each body, leaving no potential threat unchecked.

"Eagle Squad, battlefield inspection complete!"

"Snow Wolf, all done!"

"Tigers clear the area!"

The voices of the team captains rang out one by one in the channel.

Long Fei's voice came through, carrying a hint of barely perceptible fatigue: "Count the number of people and check the ammunition consumption."

"The entire Eagles team is present!"

"The entire Snow Wolf crew is here!"

"The entire Tigers team is here!"

"Ammunition consumed at 60%, no personnel fallen behind!"

Everyone is present.

These four words made all the soldiers, whose nerves were on edge, subconsciously breathe a sigh of relief.

From entering the hill to hunting the minotaurs, to being surrounded and finally breaking through, the whole process was thrilling. The high-intensity running and fighting were a huge test of physical and mental strength.

Fortunately, no one fell behind.

In that brief, almost negligible moment of respite.

Boom—Boom—!!!

A series of muffled yet continuous explosions suddenly came from inside the hill they had just escaped from!

The sound was from a great distance, yet it still made the ground vibrate, as if an ancient behemoth was roaring angrily from deep underground.

Explosions came one after another, as frequent as firecrackers during the Lunar New Year.

Everyone turned around abruptly, looking at the dark hill.

One of the Tigers team members grinned and whispered into the communicator, "Looks like... the local specialties we delivered have already been signed for by the other team members."

Long Fei ignored the joke, and his voice instantly turned cold again.

"What's wrong with the nail?"

"Report to Captain Long!" Li Na's voice carried an undisguised joy: "The toxin has been completely cleared! The wound is healing! He can move!"

The nail, whose face had just turned black, was now sitting up on its own.

The gruesome wound on his arm had faded, the bleeding had stopped, and granulation tissue could even be seen slowly growing.

He moved his arm and found that apart from some numbness, he was fine.

"That potion...it's simply a miracle," Li Na couldn't help but add.

"Stop talking nonsense!" Long Fei's voice interrupted her astonishment; the command left no room for argument. "Can you still run?"

"Yes!" Nail grabbed the communicator himself, his voice booming.

"good!"

Long Fei's voice carried a hint of ruthlessness.

"Tiger Team! Lay all the remaining landmines at the entrance! Make them a chain mine! The more the better! Seal this exit completely!"

"receive!"

Shi Lei roared and led several team members back.

They moved swiftly, burying anti-personnel mines and high-explosive directional mines at tricky angles along the only path leading to the hill entrance.

"Snow Wolf, Eagle! Prepare to retreat! Return the way you came! Quickly!"

Long Fei's urging voice rang in everyone's ears.

No one dared to delay.

The explosions in the hills continued, proving that the pursuers had entered the minefield, but no one knew what that terrifying heat source signal was, or how long these landmines could hold them off.

"Blay complete!"

Shi Lei led his team back to the team quickly.

"withdraw!!"

At Long Fei's command, the group of thirty-two men did not stop for a moment and turned around to plunge into the dense forest they had come from.

I dare not walk on open ground anymore, so I can only choose the most difficult path.

The jungle at night is darker than the hills.

The tall tree canopy blocked out the moonlight, and underfoot were tangled roots and slippery moss, making it extremely difficult to run.

puff.

One team member tripped over the vines, but immediately got up and silently caught up with the group.

"Keep formation! Stay close!" Long Fei roared from the front.

The soldiers were all experts in jungle warfare, but in this completely unfamiliar environment, their speed inevitably slowed down.

They could feel the faint vibration behind them, which did not seem to weaken as the distance increased.

Lin Mo held onto Raine tightly, his heart pounding in his throat as they ran.

Panting heavily, Renn watched the warriors stumbling and struggling in the darkness ahead, and suddenly stopped.

Lin Mo was pulled so hard he stumbled, then turned around and angrily shouted, "What are you doing?!"

Raine didn't speak. He just took a deep look at the forest where he had grown up, and then at Long Fei, who was also struggling to clear the way at the front of the group.

He broke free from Lin Mo's hand, and without saying a word, he rushed to the front of the line.

Long Fei was using a tactical flashlight to scout ahead when a dark figure suddenly darted out from the side. He instinctively pointed his gun at it.

"Don't move!"

Raine raised one hand and pointed with the other into the deeper, darker forest ahead.

He turned to Long Fei and all the special forces members, and in a hoarse voice, said only one word.

"Keep up."

After saying that, he stopped looking at anyone, lowered his body, and like a slippery eel, instantly disappeared into the densest thicket of bushes in front of him, where even light couldn't penetrate.

His figure vanished into the darkness in the blink of an eye.
