Chapter 311: Chapter 136: The dawn here is quiet, the long night is breaking.

After a brief moment of excitement, everyone quickly calmed down.

Although Ren Zhong wasn’t injured, he was unconscious. The air in the cave chamber was still scalding hot, making it impossible to stay here for long. They had to get him out quickly.

After some discussion, Wen Lei and the others decided to carry Mr. Ren out.

The hole dug by Wen Lei using the Spiral Drill was only big enough for him to crawl through, so they had to remove Mr. Ren’s Exoskeleton first and then carry him out.

A few minutes later, the three of them separated Ren Zhong from the exoskeleton, packed up both his exoskeleton suit and Lin Wang’s suit.

As Wen Lei was lifting Ren Zhong onto his back, Yujin immediately raised an objection, "No, Mr. Wen Lei, you’re too big, and wearing a heavy exoskeleton too. If you carry Mr. Ren on your back, it will easily crush him."

Wen Lei quickly put Ren Zhong down again, scratching his head, "You’re right, good thing you reminded me, otherwise it could have ended badly."

Yujin took a deep breath, bent over slightly, and said, "Mr. Wen Lei, let me carry Mr. Ren on my back instead."

Wen Lei and Chen Hanyu looked at the criss-crossing bloody wounds on Yujin’s back, exchanged a glance, and shook their heads.

Chen Hanyu said, "Yujin, you’re too badly injured. Your wounds were only treated with a hemostatic spray. If you carry him out like this, the wounds will definitely split open, and you might not have enough blood to lose."

Yujin replied, "It doesn’t matter. The temperature is too high here, and there’s a lack of oxygen, so we must get Mr. Ren out immediately. Mr. Ren is more important."

Chen Hanyu shook her head, turned around, and bowed her back, "Let me do it instead."

Yujin and Wen Lei exchanged a doubtful look.

Yujin, as an "outsider", didn’t feel it was his place to say anything more.

Wen Lei asked, "Can you handle it? It’s almost a kilometer from here to the exit, and you can only crawl, Chen Hanyu you..."

Chen Hanyu thought for a moment and then suddenly flashed a proud smile, "Let me share a little secret that only Mr. Ren and I know."

"What?"

"I’m a Fourth Level Demolition Master. Although I’m not a combat personnel, my Physical Comprehensive Index isn’t low. I’m not as frail as I look."

Revealing a secret she had kept hidden in her heart for many years, she felt a wonderful sense of relief rather than worry.

She’s been teammates with Wen Lei for a long time, but before Ren Zhong appeared, she knew Zheng Tian had long wanted to eliminate Wen Lei.

In her past view, Wen Lei wasn’t part of her "own people."

Moreover, not even Zheng Tian knew about this secret.

But now, Chen Hanyu knew that as long as Wen Lei stayed alive, Mr. Ren would never eliminate him.

Some of her inner views had changed quietly.

As for Yujin, they hadn’t known each other long, but now, Chen Hanyu trusted Ren Zhong unconditionally and wholeheartedly.

She could also feel Ren Zhong’s trust in Yujin.

Therefore, Yujin also deserved her trust.

A future of fighting side by side depended on building mutual trust as the best bridge.

At this moment, everyone surrounded Ren Zhong.

In this small team, Ren Zhong was the backbone, the catalyst, and the thread that bound everyone together into one unit.

He subtly and silently transformed this selfish, mutually crushing world where people dig food from others’ bodies.

Even though the scope was small, it was a good start.

Wen Lei was surprised by Chen Hanyu’s revelation.

Yujin, however, wasn’t too surprised, having seen Chen Hanyu perform high-level Ruined Beast disassembling many times as a member of the morning exercise team.

"Alright, let’s hurry. Help me get Mr. Ren onto my back."

Wen Lei complied.

Chen Hanyu supported Ren Zhong with her arms, intending to crawl into the round tunnel but stepped back again.

"Wait a minute, when I’m crawling with a bent waist, Mr. Ren will wobble around and possibly fall. Wen Lei, you need to secure him to my back with a rope."

"Okay."

"Also, his arms will swing around my neck and hinder my crawling, so they need to be secured too."

"How should I secure them?"

Chen Hanyu took off her jacket and handed it to Wen Lei, "Tear my clothes into strips and tie Mr. Ren’s hands to my chest."

"Got it!"

...

Wen Lei took the lead, with Chen Hanyu carrying Ren Zhong in the middle, and Yujin bringing up the rear.

The three of them entered the round tunnel in this order and began crawling out.

A cool breeze flowed into the round tunnel with a constant whooshing sound.

This was a relatively fresh air from the edge of the pit network, much more comfortable than the scorching heat of the battle space.

A few minutes later, due to the shaking, oxygen intake, the refreshing air, and the tickling sensation from stray hairs always poking into his nostrils, Ren Zhong slowly awoke.
