Warhammer: From the Devouring C'tan Fragments

"How about I take my brothers and go with you? With more people we can at least look after each other." Gang leader Yazafei suggested.

Shi Nuo stared at Yazafei closely, with a determined light flashing in his eyes. He slowly said:

"You have to stay and continue to protect these people. After I take the others out, only you and your brothers will still be able to fight. If we all leave, the people here will be in danger."

The reason why Shi Nuo chose to keep Yazafei was not only because someone was needed to protect the safety of these ordinary people, but also to maintain the last order here.

After all, Shi Nuo didn't know whether there were any dangerous elements among these survivors. If they took advantage of the fact that all the combatants had left to cause trouble, the consequences would be disastrous.

Yazafei and his brothers can effectively suppress any chaos that may arise.

After a brief thought, Yazafei nodded vigorously, indicating that he agreed with Shi Nuo's arrangement, and promised to lead his brothers to do their best to protect the safety here.

Shi Nuo stood up and patted Yazafei's shoulder, saying with relief: "The safety here is in your hands."

"Okay." Yazafei nodded vigorously in response.

The sound of explosions outside gradually died down, and the elite team of 100 people assembled by Schnuo had gathered at the exit of the fortress, quietly waiting for Schnuo's arrangements.

These people are all strong men, from gang members, bounty hunters, and planetary defense forces. They are equipped with rifles of various calibers and can easily kill strong green-skinned orcs. These weapons were taken from the dead planetary defense forces and noble private soldiers when they retreated.

Shi Nuo came in front of everyone and said with a heavy face: "You should already know why I called you here!"

"I know." Everyone responded in unison.

Now all kinds of supplies are in short supply in the entire fortress. Even for those who are strong in combat, the food they can get is not enough for one person. If they don’t go out and fight, everyone will starve to death in the fortress.

Shi Nuo looked at the serious expressions on everyone's faces, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Since you now know the serious situation we are facing, I will not waste any more words. There are two main things we need to do when we go out this time.

The first thing is to confirm whether the imperial reinforcements have arrived. If the imperial reinforcements have arrived, then all of us can continue to survive.

The second thing is to find food and water. If the imperial reinforcements don't arrive, we will have no choice but to go to the nearby cities to find supplies, but this will put us in danger. So, everyone must be careful. "

"Understood." The elite team responded in a deep voice.

They are all warriors who have crawled out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and they are well aware of the importance of the mission.

Shi Nuo's eyes swept across everyone's face, and he saw the determination and resolve in everyone's eyes. He believed that these people and he would be able to complete the mission and bring hope to this fortress.

So Shi Nuo said, "Let's go!"

Shi Nuo, holding a heavy felling rifle, walked towards the fortress gate first. The rest of the elite team members quickly followed Shi Nuo's footsteps, holding various weapons in their hands, and walked towards the fortress together.

When everyone arrived at the fortress gate, the people guarding the gate quickly opened the gate. They looked at everyone's backs with hope as they left.

These more than one hundred people carry the last hope of tens of thousands of people in this fortress. If they fail, everyone here will face death.

After everyone left, the people guarding the gate hurriedly closed the gate again. They knew that they had a heavy responsibility and had to ensure the safety of the fortress.

At this time, the elite team led by Shi Nuo had carefully walked out of the underground fortress and slowly walked in the dark and deep underground passage.

These underground passages are intricate and interconnected. If there is no one who is very familiar with the road conditions to lead the way, an ordinary person is likely to get lost and will never be able to get out of this maze-like underground passage.

Shi Nuo's face was solemn, his eyes determined. He led his elite team through the underground passage quickly, each step full of confidence and decisiveness. Because he had already memorized the situation in the underground passage, he didn't have to worry about taking the wrong path.

However, just as Shi Nuo confidently walked around the corner of a passage, he suddenly discovered that the road ahead had collapsed in the aftermath of the explosion. A large amount of rubble and soil piled up together, completely blocking the road.

"Lord Shi Nuo, what should we do now?" A bounty hunter looked at the collapsed passage in front of him, a worried look on his face, and asked anxiously.

Everyone also turned their eyes to Shi Nuo, their eyes full of anxiety and uneasiness. They expected Shi Nuo to come up with a good way to solve the current dilemma.

After all, this passage is their only way to enter the underground fortress. Now the exit has been blocked by collapsed rubble and soil. They don’t know what to do next. Only Shi Nuo is familiar with this place.

Shi Nuo looked at the passage covered with gravel and mud, and said to everyone with gritted teeth:

"Take a detour. Since this place is blocked, I don't know how extensive the collapse is. We don't have much time to try and fail. We can only take another longer route."

"Lord Shi Nuo, I will follow your instructions." A soldier responded.

"Shi Nuo, I'll listen to you too." Another bounty hunter looked at Shi Nuo with a firm look in his eyes.

"We will follow your arrangements too." The other members of the elite team echoed in unison, showing their immense trust in Shi Nuo.

"Okay, since everyone has no objection, let's take another route."

Looking at the trusting eyes of the crowd, Shi Nuo turned around and led everyone out of this passage and walked towards another passage leaving the underground fortress.

Time passed slowly, and the further they walked, the uglier everyone's faces became. This was already the third collapsed passage, and it had taken a Terra hour to get here.

If the passage leading to the surface had not collapsed, everyone would have rushed to the surface under Shi Nuo's leadership to check what was happening outside and look for food.

"Lord Shi Nuo, what is going on?" A soldier asked Shi Nuo with a grim expression.

Although the soldier's face looked extremely ugly, it was obvious that he was not blaming Shi Nuo, but just felt helpless about the situation.

"I don't know either. It's possible that the explosion on the surface was more powerful than we imagined, otherwise a collapse wouldn't have occurred so deep underground."

Shi Nuo shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly.
