The gunfire inside the house completely stopped.

The ammunition belt that had been firing back and forth in the smoke stopped roaring, and the shield bearers crouched motionless at the base of the wall.

The smoke was still slowly billowing, but its concentration was visibly thinning, fading away layer by layer from the middle.

The outlines of the shattered tables, chairs, and debris began to emerge from the smoke, first in the foreground, and then gradually extending into the distance.

Han Che stood on the left side against the wall, still holding the shield soldier by the collar.

The shieldbearer's head was tilted to one side, half of his face was swollen, and his limbs hung limply.

Han Che leaned him against the wall and then straightened up to survey the room.

Qi Yuzhe stood in the center of the room, his feet on the metal breastplate of the machine gunner.

The machine gunner was lying on his back on the ground, with the heavy machine gun tilted to one side of him, and the ammunition belt hanging down from the gun and scattered all over the ground.

His helmet was also gone, rolling a few steps away to the side, with a bullet hole running through the helmet on the side.

At this moment, the machine gunner's eyes were open and his mouth was slightly agape. Qi Yuzhe's gun was pressed against him less than half a foot above his forehead. One pull of the trigger would end his life.

Han Che turned his gaze away from Qi Yuzhe and looked towards the window at the front of the room.

The smoke over there hadn't completely dissipated, but we could already see what was happening there.

Said stood there, the muzzle of his PKM machine gun pointing downwards, with a person under his feet lying on the ground, bleeding from the back of his head, his shoulders twitching slightly, and his limbs occasionally twitching.

Even though the man was face down, Han Che could still recognize him as the captain of the Dragon Soaring Club, so he must still be alive.

Standing next to Saeed was another person wearing a dark fireproof suit, with a fuel canister on his back and a hose connecting the fuel canister to a flamethrower in his hand.

It was a flamethrower soldier who hadn't fired yet. He was also holding someone in his other hand, who was being lifted halfway up by the neck, with his feet off the ground and his hands grabbing wildly at the flamethrower soldier's arms.

That person was also a member of the Longteng Club, the second one to come up after the captain.

His face turned bright red, and he was panting with his mouth open, but his voice was choked out.

Han Che's gaze swept quickly around the room, and then he saw the corpse on the ground.

Two corpses wearing Dragon Club uniforms lay in different parts of the room, with dark blood slowly seeping into the ground beneath them.

Including the captain who was being trampled on by Said and the one being choked by the flamethrower soldier, out of the six people from the Dragon Club who entered, two died and two were captured. Only Li Hao and Jiang Chi were at the stairwell behind them.

Han Che withdrew his gaze, sneered, and slowly said, "It's quite a coincidence that each side killed two and captured two."

He raised his hand, shifted the grip of the Giant Wave Rifle, and slung it over his shoulder, looking at Said. "So, can we talk now?"

Sayed stood in front of the window, his entire body backlit by the light streaming in from outside.

He wore that mask, his cold gaze fixed on Han Che through it. He was silent for a few seconds, then spoke, his voice low and hoarse, "What's there to talk about with people like you?"

Han Che was not deterred by his words. He took a step forward and looked down at Said's abdomen, where there was a patch of bright red blood. It seemed that the people from the Phoenix Cry Club were not entirely bragging and had actually injured Said.

"You must also lack our intelligence, right?" Han Che said casually.

Saeed's gaze flickered slightly for a moment.

Han Che knew it; he had guessed correctly.

Like him before, Said knew almost nothing about the player world.

He was on Dam Zero, and could only piece together some things from fragmented information from each battle, but he couldn't piece them all together.

"How about we take turns asking three questions each, then we'll leave?"

Said remained silent for a long while. The Dragon Captain under his foot twitched a few more times, but Said didn't look down at him. His gaze remained fixed on Han Che's face. "Why should I believe you?"

Han Che shrugged, a slight smile on his face. "Believe it or not, we can't judge whether your answer is true or false, can we? Let's exchange sincerity for sincerity."

Saeed paused for a moment, considering the feasibility, then smiled contemptuously, "Fine, let's see what tricks you can pull. I'll ask first!"

Han Che waved his hand, gesturing for him to go first.

Said kicked the Dragon Captain aside, then slung the PKM machine gun over his shoulder, freeing his hands. He then asked, "How did you get here?"

Han Xin raised an eyebrow slightly. "A portal has appeared in our world. It opens every few days, and once it opens, you can come in."

Saeed stared intently at Han Che, as if trying to discern the truthfulness of his words from Han Che's expression.

Han Che didn't avoid his gaze, and just stood there letting him look at him.

"Now that you've asked your first question, it's my turn," he said. With so many people around, he couldn't ask anything he wanted to ask, so he turned to look at the stairwell.

Li Hao was hiding behind the wall at the stairwell, only half of his head peeking inside.

Han Che shouted at him, "What did your superiors tell you to ask? Now that you have the chance, hurry up and ask! At least you can hand in your report."

Li Hao was startled by the shout. He peeked halfway out from behind the wall, his face full of confusion.

Their mission was indeed to speak with Said, but this task originally fell to the Phoenix Cry Club.

As an ordinary team member, he had no idea what to ask, and the specific content of the conversation was directly instructed to the captain by the higher-ups, so he had even less of a chance to know.

Meanwhile, the members of the Phoenix Cry Club were still downstairs recovering from their injuries, while their captain from the Dragon Soaring Club was being held hostage by the other side.

Li Hao glanced at the captain being trampled under Said's feet, and recalling recent events and frequent discussions within the club, he could only steel himself and ask, "Said, why have you suddenly changed? You didn't have this kind of strength a few months ago. What made you stronger?"

Upon hearing this, Said remained silent for a moment, while Han Che and Qi Yuzhe stared intently at the eyes behind Said's mask.

Han Che and Qi Yuzhe certainly didn't expect Said to tell the truth, but they just needed to see his reaction.

"It's all because of you!" Said said through gritted teeth.

At that moment, his eyes revealed undisguised anger.

But amidst his anger, Han Che also noticed a hint of anxiety.
