Poverty makes me capable of anything.

"I don't like hearing that. Compared to a monster without emotions, I..."

"Cuckoo-"

As An Ran was speaking eloquently, bubbles suddenly began to rise from the water not far from Soldier A. Her words abruptly stopped, and a huge shadow instantly appeared beneath the bubbles.

"Ella, loosen your grip on the stick right now!" Anran shouted.

"how……"

Before Ella could release her grip, a huge column of water suddenly shot up from the lake, and a gaping maw appeared out of nowhere, swallowing Soldier A whole, along with part of the iron rod.

"Squeak-"

With one hand gripping the iron rod, Ella actually started pulling against the water monster.

Ella, at level 19, has 78 points in Strength.

For a moment, they found themselves in a stalemate with the water monster.

"Anran, Anran, I caught a big fish!" Ella shouted excitedly.

emmm——

The Lake Inner Asia monster is indeed a large, somewhat deformed fish—large in size, strong, and with powerful teeth!

Its meat is delicious and makes it a great ingredient for cooking!

"Snapped!"

An Ran stepped forward and grabbed the iron rod.

The base strength of 28 points, when suddenly added, immediately broke the balance, and the big fish was pulled over directly.

"Splash—"

Just as they were about to be pulled ashore, the big fish immediately released its grip and fell into the water, splashing Anran and Ella with lake water.

"..."

I'm furious.

"Anran, Anran, the fish got away!" Ella said, a little disappointed.

"It's fine. Even if I catch a fish, I don't know how to cook it, so it's useless. Besides, I just ate someone's fish, so I don't want to touch it."

Anran comforted Ella.

Soldier A is dead, so be it. She's already asked most of what she wanted to ask. The only thing that surprised her was how interesting it was that Soldier A died.

Life is always full of surprises.

The main focus now is still on that task: whether to accept it or not.

The task was very difficult, and An Ran wasn't very confident.

Once you die, it's all over.

If she succeeds, she can secure her position as an elite monster in the "newbie village" and even aspire to become a mini-boss.

Let's wait and see.

Anran greeted Ella and then went to the container to pack her things.

Because of the previous rain, the muddy ground was covered with tire tracks.

Anran led Ella along the tire tracks.

They were moving forward very quickly.

At a speed of over 40 kilometers per hour, it was no obstacle at all; the rugged road was no different from a smooth cement road in their eyes.

When Anran was halfway there, she saw two more cars driving towards the dock.

Could it be that something is wrong?

However, it's not a big problem. There's no video or audio evidence, so the other party has no idea who did it.

Moreover, if something happens at the dock, it will attract Morning Star's attention, giving her more opportunities.

"I am An Ran. There are people from Morning Star at the XXX dock near the Nord Biotechnology Company on Lake Inner Asia. Make the arrangements!"

An Ran sent messages to Zhou Jieyu and Li Zhuying respectively.

The location of the dock is on the ship. If you're still unsure, you can ask someone from Nord Company.

OK.

After sending the text message, An Ran did not turn off her phone.

Hopefully, they can both step up their game.

We can "pamper" them a bit when the time comes, depending on the situation.

……

"We have completely lost contact with Squad One."

"Squads two and three are already on their way back, and squad four has just arrived at its destination."

In an open space, Anran saw more than a dozen cars arranged in a circle.

The person standing right in the middle appears to be the person in charge of Morningstar's cargo transportation this time.

From this position, one shot would send him flying.

With the bombs found on those corpses, a surprise attack could potentially wipe out all of these dozens of people.

Thinking about this, An Ran did the math. There were more than 40 people in the camp. They were divided into four teams. If each team had more than 20 people like Team One, then they would have mobilized about 130-150 people in total for this operation.

If I'm not mistaken, half the people in that secret base have come out.

There are four roads leading out.

An Ran lay in the grass for a while longer, when an unexpected incident finally occurred at the camp.

"What?! The government troops are here!" The person in charge looked horrified. "Damn it, how could they have arrived so quickly?"

Although they had anticipated the news would be leaked, they expected that by the time the government troops arrived, they would have already taken the goods back.

"No, we have to let Squad One delay a bit longer. If we leave now, we might end up with nothing." The person in charge frowned, looking worried.

Lately, I feel like nothing is going right.

"Let the people on other routes hurry up, or we'll have to give up if it's really impossible."

"Swish..."

An Ran, who was eavesdropping, suddenly heard a sound coming from ahead. She looked up and saw someone walking and trying to take off their pants.

Holy crap!

An Ran moved swiftly, darted forward, covered the person's mouth, and dragged them far away.

With Ella holding his arm in a pincer movement, the man was completely unable to move.

After running quite a distance, An Ran punched the man in the stomach and said, "Quick, tell me which direction teams two, three, and four went, or I'll make you keep it up until you die!"

"..."

Soldier B of Morning Star suddenly narrowed his pupils.

You, you, you demon!

Chapter 34 We Didn't Expect to Escape [Revised]

"You can't be scared to death. If you dare to pee your pants, I'll just cut you up."

An Ran's threat immediately deflated the captured soldier B.

He was trembling and convulsing, feeling like his stomach was about to explode.

Finally, he spilled everything he knew, like pouring out beans.

The operation involved 150 people, almost half of the base's entire defense force.

Having ended the life of this unfortunate fellow, and incidentally gained 860 experience points, I safely and quickly made my way to my destination.

The only route for Squad Two.

A muddy path winding through the forest.

Use the Crimson Blade to loosen the soil in the muddy ground; the soft soil is perfect for mixing. Then, bury the hard, round bomb in the pit you just dug, set the detonation switch, and cover the bomb with fine, soft sand like salt for a culinary disaster. The soil will compact slightly, making it virtually impossible to spot anything unusual unless you look very closely.

In this way, a delicious and explosively baked dish is created.

"Ella, hide behind that tree. When you see a car get blown up, shoot at the people inside immediately."

Anran handed Ella a gun, making sure Ella was facing it at an angle, just in case Ella had never used a gun before and might accidentally shoot her.

"Yes, Anran, don't worry, I'm a great shot!"

"come on!"

Anran patted Ella's head.

Ella's marksmanship...

It's certainly impressive in games, but in reality, it's hard to say.

Ella hid behind a tree, while Anran remained hidden on the other side of the road. The two of them fired from different directions, creating the illusion that there were many of us.

An Ran wanted to throw Chenxing into chaos so that she could take advantage of the situation.

"Rumble rumble rumble..."

The target convoy came into view. Anran held her breath and, as soon as the first vehicle drove up to the top of the bomb, she immediately detonated it.

With a deafening roar, An Ran pulled the trigger without hesitation, his target the driver of the second car.

Glass shattered, blood splattered.

The Second Squad, which was suddenly attacked, immediately fell into chaos.

"Quickly back up! Quickly back up!"
