Rules of Delta: Starting with the Lost Dam

"I……"

Mai Xiaowen pursed her lips, swallowed the rest of her words, and did not explain further.

"Feel sorry."

"It's alright."

Ye Yan shook his head, his expression complicated.

"In the end, we're just temporary teammates."

The phrase "temporary teammate" seemed to pierce Mai Xiaowen's heart.

She gently bit her lip and whispered:

"I'm so glad to have a teammate like you. Thank you for saving me."

Ye Yan chuckled and shook his head.

"You're welcome."

As soon as he finished speaking, an alarm sounded, and a panel appeared in front of him.

[Evacuation point at the dam has been opened]

Immediately following was the familiar broadcast announcement.

[Attention! Someone has activated the industrial elevator in the dam! You can now evacuate from the elevator entrance inside the dam.]

Bright red lights flashed, signaling the start of the evacuation countdown.

【5:00】

"What's going on?"

Mai Xiaowen gritted her teeth, her voice tinged with anger.

"Who pulled the plug on this?!"

Cutting off the power at this time is a devastating blow to them.

They haven't searched all the areas yet, nor have they found anything of value.

More importantly, they haven't assembled yet. If they evacuate now, they'll be trapped in this godforsaken place until the next evacuation point opens.

"Damn it!"

Mai Xiaowen couldn't help but curse. She looked at Ye Yan, hoping he could come up with some solution.

"Go to the door immediately."

Ye Yan quickly stood up and ran towards the entrance of the administration building.

Seeing this, Mai Xiaowen quickly followed.

When they arrived at the door, they found that Peach Team was already there.

"Did you pull the power?"

The nameless team member, 'Nameless,' spoke with a questioning tone, his gaze fixed on Ye Yan.

Ye Yan frowned, staring intently at him, and asked in return:

"Not you?"

The atmosphere became somewhat tense at this moment.

There seemed to be an invisible tension between Ye Yan and Wuming.

Seeing this, Tao Tao quickly stepped forward, shook her head, and explained:

"It wasn't us."

"We heard the power switch being pulled and rushed here to wait for you to gather."

Wei Long stepped forward, his eyes blazing with anger, and growled:

"It was definitely those beasts who did it!"

"If I had known, I would have taken them out first!"

As he said this, a hint of regret flashed in his eyes.

If they had chosen to deal with those guys first, perhaps this situation wouldn't have arisen.

Just then, the Uluru team arrived late.

Bao Quanjia looked at everyone and complained:

"You shut off the power without even calling us. Were you planning to leave on your own?"

Upon hearing the Bao family's complaints, Wei Long flew into a rage.

"Stop talking nonsense. You've already shut down the power, yet you're still spouting nonsense here."

"court death!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Long pulled out a Tiger Crouching Cannon and pointed it at Bao Quanjia, as if he was ready to fire at the slightest provocation.

Seeing this, the Bao family did not back down at all. They pulled out their rifles, pointed them at Wei Long, and said:

"Damn it, you really think I can't run that far? Within this distance, even if I close my eyes, you all better lie down."

"besides."

Seeing this, Qiaoqiao also took out a loitering munition, pointed it at Taotao's team, and said:

"What makes you think we pulled it?"

"Why waste time if we're pulling it out early?"

"Giving you assault operators a chance?"

At this point, Qiaoqiao paused, then continued:

"We can't possibly outrun you."

The atmosphere at the scene instantly became tense, and it looked like a conflict was about to break out.

However, Ye Yan's voice rang out at this moment, interrupting the impending fight.

"Don't waste your time."

Ye Yan's tone was firm and unwavering, "Leave now. We must be at the industrial elevator within four minutes!"

Upon hearing this, Tao Tao quickly responded, turned to look at Wei Long, and asked with a hint of eagerness and anticipation:

"Can't we pull the second switch?"

Wei Long shook his head, his face looking rather grim, a hint of helplessness flashing in his eyes.

There won't be a second chance.

Ye Yan looked at everyone and spoke again:

"Now is not the time to worry about who cuts the power."

"This is our last chance; we must evacuate immediately."

"If we miss this opportunity, who knows when the next evacuation point will open? We could very well die in this godforsaken place."

At this point, Ye Yan paused, his cold gaze sweeping over everyone present, before speaking again:

"Every second is crucial now."

"Then what are we waiting for?"

Influenced by Ye Yan's tone, Qiaoqiao immediately set up her loitering turret and roared at her own team:

"Load the bullet into the chamber!"

"Let's go right now!"

As Ye Yan finished speaking, everyone sprang into action.

"Rush!"

Qiaoqiao roared and charged out first.

He pulled the trigger, and the loitering munition roared out with devastating force.

"Die!"

call out!

The loitering munition accurately struck a group of mutated soldiers on patrol, sparks flew and the explosion was deafening.

However, this powerful attack also thoroughly enraged the nearby mutated soldiers.

They all turned around, roared, and charged at the crowd.

"Swish, swish, swish!"

The triple-barreled hand cannon proved its worth once again.

Three explosive grenades fell in succession, blasting the mutated soldiers at the forefront into scattered fragments.

The continuous explosions echoed through the empty dam, unsettling everyone present.

However, even with such powerful firepower, these mutated soldiers still did not fall completely.

Wriggling flesh threads and tentacles were writhing around their wounds, making them look extremely ferocious and terrifying.

These people have completely lost their human form and become monsters that only know how to kill.

"Let's go!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Ye Yan put down the triple-barreled hand cannon and shouted loudly at Mai Xiaowen.

"kindness."

Upon hearing this, Mai Xiaowen immediately nodded.

She and her uncle were already prepared the moment Ye Yan reminded them.

Taking advantage of the moment when the mutated soldiers were tending to their wounds, they quickly rushed out and headed straight for the entrance to the industrial dam.

"Let's go too!"

Tao Tao glanced at the Uluru team and Ye Yan who had already rushed out, and couldn't help but frown.

Who pulled the switch?

If we follow the normal line of reasoning, the Uluru team is indeed the most likely suspect.

But why did they cut off the power ahead of schedule?

What benefit would they gain from doing this?

Tao Tao was filled with doubts; she felt that she had overlooked some important information.

However, now is not the time for hesitation and indecision.

They must leave this hellish place as soon as possible, or the consequences will be unimaginable.

"Let's go!"

Tao Tao gritted her teeth and decisively issued the order.

Wei Long and Wu Ming responded immediately, standing in front and behind Tao Tao to protect her and clear a path for her.

The mutated soldiers suffered heavy losses in the explosion, and the remaining number is no longer enough to pose a lethal threat to them.

Use direct firepower to suppress the enemy and eliminate the armed soldiers first.
