#2514 - Fight those bastards

Wang Yanbing scratched his head and chuckled, "Um, Brother Yuan, where are we going? And what's the matter with that list you mentioned?"

Qin Yuan did not answer, but increased the speed of the car by one gear. The off-road vehicle roared, and like an arrow shot from a bow, it sped away into the unknown depths of darkness.

"Chenguang, do you believe him?" Seeing that Qin Yuan didn't speak, Wang Yanbing turned to look at He Chenguang.

He Chenguang was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "I don't know. But you and I both saw Chief of Staff Fan's reaction."

Wang Yanbing sighed and stopped talking. He knew that it was useless to say anything now, and he could only take things one step at a time.

Three hours later, the black SUV stopped at the gate of an abandoned factory. The surroundings were desolate, with only a few dim street lamps emitting weak light, making the place even more eerie and scary.

"We're here." Qin Yuan opened the car door and walked out first.

He Chenguang and Wang Yanbing followed closely behind, looking around vigilantly.

"Where is this place?" He Chenguang asked.

"The answer you want is inside." Qin Yuan pointed to the factory gate and said coldly, "However, I advise you to be mentally prepared. For some things, once you know the truth, you can never turn back."

After saying that, Qin Yuan walked straight to the factory gate without any hesitation. He Chenguang and Wang Yanbing looked at each other and saw a solemn look in each other's eyes. They knew that what was waiting for them would be a cruel test.

Inside the factory, it was pitch black, with only a few rays of moonlight shining through the dilapidated windows, casting mottled shadows on the ground. The air was filled with a nauseating smell of decay.

"It seems like no one has been here for a long time." Wang Yanbing covered his nose and said in a low voice.

"Be careful, there may be an ambush here." He Chenguang reminded in a low voice.

The three of them groped their way forward, and the sound of their footsteps echoed in the empty factory, sounding particularly clear.

Suddenly, Qin Yuan stopped, turned around abruptly, grabbed He Chenguang and Wang Yanbing by the collars, and pulled them behind a huge machine.

"What's wrong?" He Chenguang and Wang Yanbing were startled by Qin Yuan's sudden action before they could react.

"Shh!" Qin Yuan signaled them to be quiet, then pointed to the other side of the machine.

He Chenguang and Wang Yanbing looked in the direction of Qin Yuan's finger, and saw more than a dozen figures standing on the other side of the machine! Those figures were wearing black combat uniforms, with black masks on their faces, revealing only a pair of cold eyes, and holding various weapons in their hands. It was obvious that they were not good people.

"Who are these people?" Wang Yanbing asked in a low voice.

"I don't know, but he is definitely not a friend." He Chenguang shook his head and tightened the gun in his hand.

Two gunshots broke the silence of the night sky and marked the beginning of this life-and-death battle.

"Enemy attack!"

Those men in black obviously didn't expect to be discovered. They were stunned at first, but then they reacted and raised their guns to shoot.

For a moment, there was a burst of gunfire and flames, and the entire factory turned into a hell on earth.

Qin Yuan, He Chenguang and Wang Yanbing leaned against the machines and engaged in a fierce gun battle with the men in black.

Although the other side had more people and more power, Qin Yuan and his two companions were experienced special forces with accurate shooting skills and skilled tactics. They managed to tear a hole in the enemy's encirclement.

“Da da da!”

The assault rifle in Wang Yanbing's hand spewed out flames, sweeping down the men in black one after another. While shooting, he shouted loudly: "Damn it, you dare to sneak attack me, I'm tired of living!"

He Chenguang was calmly looking for the enemy's flaws. The sniper rifle in his hand was like the scythe of the god of death. Every time he pulled the trigger, a life would be taken away.

Qin Yuan's figure was like a ghost, moving freely in the hail of bullets. The pistol in his hand was like the fangs of a poisonous snake, and every time he attacked, he hit the enemy's vital points with incomparable accuracy.

However, those men in black seemed to be endless. After killing one, two more would rush up, as if they would never be finished.

"Damn, are these people cockroaches? There's no way we can kill them all!" Wang Yanbing cursed while changing the magazine.

"Their target is Qin Yuan, we will cover him as he breaks out!" He Chenguang analyzed calmly.

"No, if you want to go, let's go together. I can't leave you behind!" Wang Yanbing refused loudly.

"Listen to my command!" He Chenguang shouted, "Now is not the time to be a hero. Only by saving Qin Yuan can we find out the truth!"

Wang Yanbing wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Qin Yuan, "Stop arguing and follow orders!"

Wang Yanbing had no choice but to obey the order.

"Cover me!"

Qin Yuan shouted loudly and suddenly rushed out from behind the cover.

“Da da da!”

He Chenguang and Wang Yanbing fired their guns at the same time, providing fire cover for Qin Yuan.

Qin Yuan rushed towards the black-clad crowd like a tiger, facing the dense bullets. The pistol in his hand kept spitting out flames, and every black-clad man he targeted could not escape death.

However, just as Qin Yuan was about to break out of the encirclement, an accident happened.

“Whoosh!”

A sharp sound of breaking through the air was heard, and a rocket with a long tail flame roared towards Qin Yuan.

"Be careful!" He Chenguang shouted, but it was too late.

"boom!"

There was a loud bang, flames shot up into the sky, and Qin Yuan's figure was instantly submerged in a sea of ​​fire...

The shock wave of the explosion threw Qin Yuan away. He rolled on the ground for several times before he managed to stabilize himself. His ears were buzzing and his eyes were blurry, as if the whole world was spinning.

"Qin Yuan! Qin Yuan!" The anxious calls of He Chenguang and Wang Yanbing came from a distance, but to Qin Yuan's ears they sounded vague, as if through a layer of water curtain.

He shook his head vigorously, trying to wake himself up. The world in front of him gradually became clear, but he found himself lying at the bottom of a huge bomb crater, surrounded by black smoking rubble and twisted metal fragments.

"Cough cough..." Qin Yuan coughed violently, with a strong smell of blood in his mouth. He struggled to stand up, but found that his body was falling apart, and every muscle was emitting tearing pain.

"Damn, these bastards are so cruel!" Qin Yuan cursed while gritting his teeth, looking around.

The men in black had disappeared, having apparently fled the scene during the chaos of the explosion.

"Qin Yuan, how are you?" He Chenguang and Wang Yanbing rushed to the edge of the crater and asked anxiously.

"I won't die!" Qin Yuan waved his hands to indicate that he was fine.

He Chenguang and Wang Yanbing quickly jumped down the bomb crater, held Qin Yuan on the left and right, and pulled him up from the bottom of the pit.

"Damn it, who on earth are these guys? They actually used rockets!" Wang Yanbing cursed angrily.

"I'm not sure, but their target is very clear, they are coming for me." Qin Yuan said in a deep voice.

"Could it be..." He Chenguang seemed to have thought of something, and his expression suddenly became solemn.

"What is it?" Wang Yanbing asked.

"Let's leave here first." He Chenguang did not answer, but looked around vigilantly and said, "It's not safe here, let's find a place to hide first."

Qin Yuan nodded. He knew that He Chenguang was right. They were now in the wilderness and were injured. If they were attacked again, they would be in real danger.

The three of them supported each other and walked away from the factory. They walked very slowly because Qin Yuan was seriously injured. Every step he took affected his wounds all over his body, causing him to sweat profusely.

"Hold on, Qin Yuan, we will find a safe place soon." He Chenguang encouraged Qin Yuan while supporting him.

"Don't worry, this little injury won't bother me." Qin Yuan said while gritting his teeth, but a hint of weakness could not be concealed in his tone.

They walked for about half an hour and finally came to the edge of a forest.

"Let's rest here first." He Chenguang helped Qin Yuan sit down under a big tree, then took out a first aid kit from his backpack and began to treat his wounds.

"Hiss..." When He Chenguang used an alcohol cotton ball to disinfect the wound, Qin Yuan gasped in pain.

"Bear with it, it will be fine soon." He Chenguang comforted, but his movements were much gentler.

"Damn it, these bastards, I'm going to make them pay the price sooner or later!" Wang Yanbing cursed with gritted teeth.

"Don't worry about them for now. What we need to figure out now is who they are and why they attacked us," said He Chenguang.

"Yes, Qin Yuan, have you offended anyone recently?" Wang Yanbing asked.

"I have offended so many people. Who knows which bastard did it?" Qin Yuan said unhappily.

"Then think carefully, has anything special happened recently?" He Chenguang asked.

Qin Yuan closed his eyes and carefully recalled what had happened recently.

Suddenly, a light bulb went off in his head and he remembered something.

"I remember now!" Qin Yuan suddenly opened his eyes and said, "A few days ago, when I was on a mission, I seemed to have discovered a secret base..."

"I remember!" Qin Yuan suddenly opened his eyes, and his hoarse voice scared He Chenguang and Wang Yanbing.

"You're so jumpy, kid. What did you remember? Have you figured out your constipation?" Wang Yanbing rolled his eyes and said unhappily.

Qin Yuan ignored Wang Yanbing's teasing, took a deep breath, tried to calm his breathing, and said: "A few days ago, I went on a mission, the target was a transnational arms smuggling group. I sneaked into one of their warehouses in the suburbs, and guess what? I found that there was a secret base hidden under the warehouse!"

"Secret base? What's going on?" He Chenguang and Wang Yanbing suddenly became alert, and even the wounds on their bodies seemed to no longer hurt.

"I was in a hurry at the time. I was discovered before I could take a closer look. I had to retreat first." Qin Yuan recalled the scene at that time. "The base was heavily guarded, and I felt a very strange aura. It didn't seem like an ordinary arsenal."

"A strange smell? What smell? Stop keeping us in suspense, just tell me!" Wang Yanbing was so anxious that he kept scratching his head.

"I can't describe it. It's a bit like... like a kind of energy fluctuation. It's very weak, but I can feel it." Qin Yuan frowned and tried hard to describe the feeling, but found that his vocabulary was limited, so he could only worry.

He Chenguang pondered for a moment and analyzed: "If it can make you feel energy fluctuations, it must be something extraordinary. Could it be some new type of weapon? Or..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Qin Yuan: "Or, it's something related to the 'one-key recycling' system!"

Hearing the words “one-click recycling”, He Chenguang and Wang Yanbing fell silent.

The "one-click recycling" system is Qin Yuan's biggest secret and their greatest reliance.

This system suddenly appeared out of thin air and bound Qin Yuan, giving him incredible abilities. He could "recycle" any item into the system space, and he could also take out the "recycled" items anytime and anywhere.

At first, they only regarded this system as a large portable warehouse to hide weapons and equipment. But as they used it more and more, they gradually discovered that this system was far more powerful and mysterious than they had imagined.

"You mean, the people who attacked you were targeting the 'One-Click Recovery' system?" He Chenguang asked solemnly.

Qin Yuan nodded, his tone firm: "Besides this, I can't think of any other explanation. When I was on a mission before, I always acted alone, only this time..."

He paused, looked at He Chenguang and Wang Yanbing, a trace of guilt flashed in his eyes: "It's me who implicated you."

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Wang Yanbing slapped Qin Yuan on the shoulder, making him grimace in pain. "We are brothers, and we are still talking about this? Besides, I've been wanting to fight those bastards for a long time!"

He Chenguang also patted Qin Yuan on the shoulder and said, "Don't think too much. The most important thing now is to recover from your injuries and then find out who those people are and what their purpose is."

"Yeah." Qin Yuan nodded, a gleam of determination flashed in his eyes.

"By the way, you haven't explained it clearly yet. What exactly is your 'one-click recycling' system? How can you recycle things? Is it alien technology or a magic prop?" Wang Yanbing's curiosity was aroused again, and he started to get to the bottom of it.

Qin Yuan rolled his eyes at him and said unhappily, "You ask me, who should I ask? This system is like a big boss. Usually, it is hard to find. It only appears when I want to use it."

"Then it must have an instruction manual or something, right? If you think carefully, you might find some clues." He Chenguang was also full of curiosity about this mysterious system.

"There is a clue..." Qin Yuan suddenly seemed to remember something and took out an antique metal ring from his pocket. "This is what I found in the system space on the day I got the system. I have been wearing it on my hand, but I always feel that it is not that simple."

He Chenguang and Wang Yanbing took the rings and examined them carefully.
