They followed the sound.

Several men wearing silver dragon masks were talking in the blood mist.

"You never listen to the captain! If we hadn't found you, you'd be dead in here!"

"Did you hear that? Li Zi?"

Yan Li glanced at him and whispered, "I won't die, at least I didn't see the moment of my death."

"You!" His teammate, seeing his stubbornness, was furious.

"Don't rely on that one ability all the time."

Sometimes fate takes a slight turn.

Yan Li blinked and said, "No, in my eyes, destiny is born from its own traces."

Death is not frightening to me.

The teammates standing nearby fell silent, too lazy to argue.

Just then, several voices came from ahead.

"They're all dead. All the ordinary people are dead."

"So, should we just leave now, or..."

Hearing the sound, they nodded silently, quickly dispersed, and crept towards the location.

The people who spoke were Li Chen and his group.

Li Chen frowned slightly. He could sense that energy entities were approaching them from within the surrounding Red Mist.

"No, someone's getting closer!"

"It's human, don't attack yet."

Su Xian's gaze also turned to the Red Mist, flipping through the magic book to determine whether it was Evil Cult or another Sequence User.

At that moment, a man's voice came from within the Red Mist.

"It's a student!"

"Cease stealth, no attacking."

Several footsteps approached.

Several figures emerged through the Red Mist.

Su Zhe's eyes widened, and he exclaimed, "Holy crap, it's the Chenlong Squad?"

He was a big fan of this special team, so he could immediately tell their origins from their clothing.

Li Chen wasn't too surprised, muttering, "Oh? The special team has already entered Canghai City?"

That makes sense. If the entire Canghai City doesn't receive reinforcements, it will indeed fall. Not only will the pass be breached, but even the city itself will be lost.

Now that Shiva Box has been opened, one of the Six Evil Gods remains unresolved.

One of the Chenlong Team bumped headfirst into the barrier, somewhat dazed, and quickly called out...

"Hey, young man, let us in."

Su Xian shook her head and said, "Su Zhe, go ask the Chenlong Squad about their problems."

"Huh?" Su Zhe was a little confused.

Ji Shao explained on Su Xian's behalf, "Nowadays, not everyone outside is necessarily one of us."

"Perhaps it's a special team disguised as Evil Cult. Su Xian is asking you to verify their authenticity based on their preferences."

Su Zhe nodded solemnly, "I guarantee I'll complete the mission!"

"I will not allow anyone to insult my idol."

He then walked to the side of the barrier and looked at the three Chenlong Team standing outside.

"Little Fatty, open the barrier."

"We've come to rescue you."

Su Zhe smiled and said, "Answer me a question, and I'll let you in."

"Is the captain of the Chenlong Squad named Su Zhe?"

A few black lines appeared above the heads of the team members outside the barrier.

"Our team leader doesn't have a name, or rather, the captain of each special team doesn't reveal their name."

Not far away, Li Chen was also observing Su Zhe's actions.

Seeing the thumbs-up, they let everyone in.

There were only three of them: two young men and one middle-aged man, all wearing the special operations uniforms of the Chenlong Team.

There were still traces of blood on it, indicating that they had encountered quite a few Eerie Monsters along the way.

After the group entered, they began asking why Li Chen and the others were there.

However, I still told them everything in detail.

The middle-aged man smiled kindly and said, "It's commendable that you have this intention, but you should still leave the city as soon as possible."

"Canghai City is no longer a safe place to stay."

"We can't protect you from leaving the city either, after all, we still have missions to complete."

Li Chen frowned slightly and asked, "Which direction can we leave Canghai City now?"

The Red Mist had obscured their entire vision, and they dared not act rashly from the sky, for the Eerie Monsters might be watching them intently at any moment.

At this moment, the young man took out a compass from his pocket and tossed it to Su Xian, "This is a special compass for locating our vehicle outside the city. Just follow the direction and we'll find it."

Su Xian caught it, glanced at it, and said "Thank you."

This thing might not have been useful before, but it's definitely useful in the Red Mist now.

At least they don't have to go in circles anymore.

The middle-aged man, with a serious expression, said, "This isn't something we're giving you for free; we also need to trouble you with a few things."

Then he nudged Yan Li, who was standing to the side.

"Please take him with you when you leave."

"He's a new teammate on our Chenlong Team, but with the immense crisis facing Canghai City, his mission is temporarily suspended."

Yan Li looked at the middle-aged man in disbelief and asked, "Why?"

The middle-aged man's eyes held a hint of emotion as he shook his head, his tone resolute. "Yan Li, obey orders."

"We are all members of the Chenlong Team, and we are not afraid of death."

"But you must leave one seed; this is the first lesson I'm teaching you."

"Your task now is to escort them out."

Yan Li pursed her lips, turned her head away, and remained silent.

The middle-aged man looked at Li Chen and the others, and said with a smile, "You flatter me."

"Then we'll part ways here; we still have tasks to continue."

Su Zhe was a little reluctant and said, "No, please tell me more about the Chenlong Team!"

"I'm a big fan of yours."

The middle-aged man pointed to Yan Li beside him and said, "He will talk."

He then left with one of them.

Su Zhe looked at the young man who had stayed behind, extended his hand, and said, "Hey buddy, my name is Su Zhe."

"I never expected that someone so young would be a new member of the Chenlong Squad."

Yan Li subconsciously took a step back and whispered, "Hello, my name is Yan Li."

Compared to Su Zhe's easygoing nature, this new member of the Chenlong Team seems a bit difficult to get along with.

However, Li Chen ignored all that and asked, "So, is it definitely possible to get out via the path indicated by the compass?"

Su Xian nodded.

It's quite remarkable that this compass can be used in the Red Mist, considering they possess Student Badge. However, the Red Mist interfered with all signals; otherwise, they would have simply used the Student Badge.

The group then continued deeper into the Red Mist.

Not far from them.

The Imperial Capital Team is in a very difficult situation.

A violent explosion and the sound of buildings collapsing echoed through the air.

Countless energy fluctuations shimmered within the Red Mist.

The Su Family Saint Son looked grave and said, "Gu Changkong, seal off this place."

The Daoist Family Saint Son's eyes gleamed with a faint white light, and white stones appeared one after another on his fingers.

Standing around them were many Evil Cult dressed in black robes.

A man wearing a stone mask looked at the group standing in the Red Mist and murmured...

Looks like we're too early.

"We were lucky, though we encountered a minor mishap."
