"Wait a minute." Jiang Baimian interrupted Shang Jianyao and Xu Datong's determined steps.

They both turned their heads at the same time, casting their gazes on her.

Jiang Baimian weighed her words and asked:

"You guys, do you know what to do and how to do it?"

She didn't want to doubt the older Xu Datong too much, but his tacit understanding with Shang Jianyao always made her feel uneasy.

Shang Jianyao shook his head without hesitation.

At the same time, Xu Datong gave his answer:

"Destroy those load-bearing walls, and then give this building the final blow after we come out."

Clap clap clap, Shang Jianyao applauded.

Xu Datong looked sideways at this "fellow traveler," his expression quite complex, and it was unclear whether he was regretting joining forces with Shang Jianyao.

Fortunately, fortunately, this "Salvation Army" expert is over half a century old and experienced, unlike Shang Jianyao, who is so unreliable… Jiang Baimian breathed a sigh of relief:

"We will monitor the situation in all aspects at all times, and you must pay attention to yourselves."

As she spoke, she tossed the grenade launcher she had prepared long ago to Shang Jianyao through the air.

Bai Chen, Long Yuehong, and Genava spread out with great understanding, occupying different positions.

This was all content from the tactical manual.

After entering the seven-story building of the Second Food Company, Shang Jianyao raised the grenade launcher and pulled the trigger towards one of the load-bearing walls.

Boom!

Accompanied by the sound of the explosion, Xu Datong, who had not taken out any weapons, raised his arm, clenched his fist, and struck forward in a small space.

Bang!

A few meters away, a load-bearing wall suffered an invisible blow and cracked open with a certain point as the center.

"Interference Substance!"

Seeing this, Shang Jianyao became even more excited, firing grenade after grenade.

While the two were indulging in destruction, they did not forget to sense their surroundings, always keeping their nerves tense, waiting for the unexpected to appear.

When the building showed obvious tremors, Xu Datong stopped his right hand and said to Shang Jianyao:

"We can withdraw now."

Without saying a word, Shang Jianyao turned around and ran wildly.

Xu Datong was stunned for a moment, seemingly not expecting the other party to be so decisive and so "energetic."

He quickly came back to his senses and ran after Shang Jianyao, as if he had returned to his youthful and vigorous days.

After leaving the building and running a certain distance, Xu Datong stopped and faced the Tieshan City Second Food Company.

Jiang Baimian, Shang Jianyao, and others raised their concentration to the highest level, on the one hand, to prevent any changes from occurring in this Buddhist holy site, and on the other hand, to wait for that special "Higher Mindless" to appear.

At this moment, Xu Datong stretched out his right hand, grasped forward in the void, and suddenly pulled down.

Rumble!

The already tottering food company building collapsed suddenly, splashing a large amount of dust and debris.

However, apart from that, nothing else happened.

The five members of the "Old Task Force" and Xu Datong waited for a while, but still failed to "wait" for that special "Higher Mindless."

Huff, Jiang Baimian exhaled and said to Xu Datong:

"It seems he won't appear again."

Even the destruction of the Tieshan City Second Food Company failed to lure him out.

Xu Datong nodded:

"Now the only way is for everyone to act separately, while maintaining a certain distance, and use deliberately created 'isolation' to lure him into attacking."

Jiang Baimian pondered for a while and said:

"This is too dangerous, and besides, now that you've said it, he's probably already heard it.

"We plan to leave according to the original plan and go to other Buddhist holy sites to find new clues."

Xu Datong glanced at her, as if weighing whether she was telling the truth or a lie.

In the end, this "Salvation Army's" "Mind Corridor" Awakened chose to believe:

"We are also preparing to return to Redstone Town. After completing the transaction of the military exoskeleton device, we may take a trip to the Changhe City United Steel Factory and use our method to search again."

"Uh…" Jiang Baimian didn't know how to respond for a moment.

The honest Shang Jianyao helped to answer:

"No need to go, the Buddhist holy site there has also collapsed, just like this one."

Xu Datong fell silent, looked at the members of the "Old Task Force" for a while, and said sincerely:

"Everyone, if you are going to Icefield Tiencheng in the future, you will likely pass through the sphere of influence of our 'Salvation Army'. At that time, if you encounter any problems, you can report my name. I am a member of the 'Public Security Management Committee'.

"But well, this may not work. Favoritism cannot be used as a system, it can only be said to try."

"Okay!" Shang Jianyao agreed excitedly, as if he was certain that the "Old Task Force" would go to the "Salvation Army's" sphere of influence.

Xu Datong bid farewell and walked into the distance, joining Li Shouyi and the others two hundred meters away.

After getting into the dark-colored vehicle and watching Xue Shiyue and the others leave, Xu Datong told his subordinates the key points of the conversation just now.

Li Shouyi frowned:

"The Buddhist holy site of the Changhe City United Steel Factory was destroyed, could it be them who did it?"

Xu Datong nodded lightly, indicating that he also thought so.

Li Shouyi continued:

"The Buddhist holy site of the Tieshan City Second Food Company was also destroyed today, and they are at least half responsible.

"Are they, perhaps, senior special commissioners from the Eighth Research Institute?"

Otherwise, how could they have completed what the Eighth Research Institute wanted to do but had never been able to do?

And it happened twice!

Xu Datong wanted to help the "Old Task Force" explain, but was speechless for a moment.

…………

The next day, near dusk.

A convoy drove into the ruins of Tieshan City from the northwest direction.

They carried at least thirty cannons, established a position a few kilometers away, and aimed at the place where the Second Food Company was located.

The "leaders" of this team were a man and a woman. The woman wore a white shirt, a blue denim jacket, matching trousers, and a wide-brimmed, high-topped felt hat. The man wore a black trench coat, dark sunglasses on his nose, and was over 1.8 meters tall.

The woman dressed in denim took out binoculars and focused on the Tieshan City Second Food Company, preparing to help the gunners correct the shooting parameters.

She was an Ashlander, with an oval face, willow leaf eyebrows, and an apparent age of only twenty-five or six, but she had a very mature temperament.

"Hmm…" The woman made a questioning sound while adjusting the direction of the binoculars.

"What's wrong?" The man in the trench coat and sunglasses asked.

At this time, the sky was still quite bright, but he was always wearing sunglasses.

Judging from his neatly combed golden-brown hair, he was a Red River person.

The woman dressed in denim observed for a while and said in disbelief:

"That Buddhist holy site has been destroyed.

"But I'm not sure if I've found the right target."

"What? Who did it?" The tall man wearing sunglasses reached out and took the binoculars.

After repeated confirmation, he frowned and said:

"That is indeed the Tieshan City Second Food Company…

"Who did this good deed? Saved us a lot of effort."

Their conversation was conducted in Red River language with a northern accent, but some of the wording and sentence structure had Ashlander characteristics.

"No matter who did it, we must report it immediately." The woman dressed in denim took off the canvas backpack on her back.

She took out an item from it that was very similar to an Old World tablet computer.

After lighting the screen and unlocking it, she opened a telegram simulation software and entered a series of numbers.

After she completed the connection, the LCD screen suddenly dimmed, as if passing through a tunnel.

Soon, the screen lit up, revealing a figure sitting behind a table.

The "space" around this figure was distorted, and snowflakes appeared frequently, making him look very blurred and difficult to identify.

In the sound of buzzing, the figure asked:

"Blue, what's the problem?"

The woman dressed in denim replied respectfully:

"'Doctor,' the Tieshan City Second Food Company has been destroyed."

The figure called "Doctor" was silent for a long time before saying:

"Listen to the 'Dao and Appliance Repair' radio station tonight, I want to talk to Wu Meng."

"Yes, 'Doctor'." The woman dressed in denim and the man wearing sunglasses responded at the same time.

At the fixed time period in the evening, they found a radio, tuned to 119.2 frequency, and began receiving the content broadcast by the "Dao and Appliance Repair" radio station.

At the same time, the woman dressed in denim, Xu Lan, took out the tablet computer again and connected to the "Doctor."

As soon as the distorted and blurred figure on the screen appeared, Wu Meng's voice in the radio "eh"ed:

"You've returned.

"How is the 'New World' doing now? I sensed the aura of that 'Truth' guy appeared in Initial City before, but ran directly into that one, really unlucky."

He was still using the Red River language.

The "Doctor" used the same language and said in a deep voice:

"You don't need to worry about the situation in the 'New World'."

"Then what are you looking for me for?" In the radio, Wu Meng's voice carried an unspeakable smile, "Because I know a few 'Buddhist Holy Sites'?"

The "Doctor" replied calmly:

"This is one aspect."

Wu Meng's voice disappeared for a few seconds, and then reappeared, with a clear smile:

"Since you want to know so much, then I'll tell you, the highest excellence is like water, benefiting all things without striving.

"In this ruin where I am, there is a place called Holm Reproductive Medical Center, which is another Buddhist holy site."
