In the corner of the iron gate.
"Plop!"
After seeing Wang Zhong slumped on the ground, Manni, who had been supported by Wang Zhong, also felt her legs go weak and collapsed onto him.
Suddenly, the two looked like a couple, leaning against each other.
"Tap, tap!"
Just then, Captain Link, responsible for reinforcements, rushed over with ten team members whose strength had reached [Level 2 Psionic Warrior].
However, when Captain Link and the others arrived, they only saw a ground full of corpses and two teammates embracing each other.
"What? What's going on?"
The next second, a voice filled with confusion came from Captain Link.
As he spoke, Captain Link waved his right hand to the sides, and his ten team members, with great tacit understanding, separated and cautiously explored the surrounding areas.
Captain Link, on the other hand, went directly to the side of these [Half-demon warriors] and examined them with a cautious expression.
"Dead?"
"These [Half-demon warriors] are all dead? And they weren't killed by firearms, but rather by some powerful force?"
"..."
A moment later, Captain Link, who had a shaved head, approached Wang Zhong and Manni. He first glanced at them before asking officially, "You are the last survivors of this battlefield. What happened here? Please tell me the truth."
"Captain, just now, those monsters rushed out from the branch entrance and wanted to kill us. Then, a mysterious person suddenly appeared and killed these monsters..."
"We almost died."
Hearing this, Wang Zhong looked up and explained weakly.
"Calling Captain Link, calling Captain Link..."
At the same time, Captain Li Ying's voice came through Captain Link's earpiece, giving instructions.
Corner.
Wang Zhong, slumped on the ground, could clearly see from this angle that Captain Link's expression changed from shock to disbelief, and finally, to a look of seeing a ghost.
It seemed that Captain Link had heard some extremely shocking news.
"Thank you, Wang Zhong."
Suddenly, a sound as faint as a mosquito's buzz sounded in Wang Zhong's ear.
Hearing this, Wang Zhong's expression froze. He hadn't expected the proud woman Manni to thank him, but he still replied politely, "It's nothing. We're partners, so we should help each other."
At this moment, Manni, sitting on the ground, listened to Wang Zhong's repeated words, and a strange glint appeared in her eyes.
To be honest, Manni couldn't imagine that she would be so embarrassed this time. If Wang Zhong hadn't desperately pulled her back, she might have already died in the monsters' mouths.
It was precisely this experience that made Manni have a slight change of impression towards Wang Zhong, this so-called companion.
"Wang Zhong doesn't seem so bad..."
"Maybe I should take the initiative to make friends with Wang Zhong and chat..."
Suddenly, a thought flashed through Manni's mind.
Of course, Manni didn't know that when a girl becomes curious about a boy, it means she is not far from falling for him.
This silently occurring crisis was thus resolved invisibly with the intervention of a certain justice crusader.
However, both Wang Zhong and Captain Li Ying knew very well that this battle had not just ended; on the contrary, it had just begun.
Because the organization behind the release of these [Half-demon warriors] had not been apprehended.
This meant that such dangers would continue to occur in the future.
And so.
Wang Zhong and Manni got into the team's hovercar and quickly headed back to the bureau.
After all, as witnesses to this incredible battle, they had to give their statements. As for the few [Half-demon warrior] corpses, they were still taken back to the bureau by an ambulance.
The bureau.
When Wang Zhong and Manni walked into the bureau, looking exhausted, they were met with a round of applause.
Then, Captain Li Ying, with a smile, quickly walked out. He carefully examined Wang Zhong and Manni before reaching out and patting Wang Zhong's shoulder, saying encouragingly, "Wang Zhong, you did well. Even in such danger, you didn't forget to help your partner retreat. Thank you for saving Manni's life."
"You're a good kid!"
"Everyone in our bureau has witnessed your heroic actions."
Crackling!
As Captain Li Ying finished speaking, the other Psionic Plainclothes Officers began to applaud, bidding Wang Zhong farewell.
"Wang Zhong, you're amazing!"
"Good job, kid!"
The Psionic Plainclothes Officers around them clapped their hands while praising Wang Zhong.
After all, a hero who doesn't abandon their comrades is always more popular than a scoundrel who does.
"Heh heh, it's nothing, I was just doing my duty."
Amidst the applause and cheers, Wang Zhong couldn't help but scratch his hair, saying with a bashful expression.
It seemed Wang Zhong wasn't taking any credit for himself.
A mere seven [Half-demon warriors] wouldn't make Wang Zhong flinch or feel scared at all!
This wasn't just because Wang Zhong possessed the [Half-body Psionic Battle Suit], allowing him to exert the strength of a [Level 3 Psionic Warrior]; it was more so because he had many trump cards in his hand.
Mechanical War Hawk.
Mechanical Warrior.
A moment later.
After Wang Zhong enjoyed the encouragement...
Captain Li Ying turned his head and looked at Manni, who opened her mouth as if to say something. He sighed slightly and said with a stern expression, "Manni, although you are my apprentice, I am very disappointed with your performance this time. Next, I want you to write a five-thousand-word report and place it on my desk tomorrow."
"I'm sorry, Master."
Manni, deeply aware of her mistake, lowered her head and apologized guiltily.
She also knew that the mistake she had made this time was truly fatal.
Beside them.
"It's alright, Captain, this is what I should do."
Wang Zhong saw the somewhat tense atmosphere and quickly stepped forward to change the subject. "Captain, the monsters this time were truly terrifying. We must investigate why this monster was inside our branch..."
