"There are others?" Li Huailin asked immediately when he heard that.
"Yes, we were ambushed before. When we escaped in a hurry, there should be about forty people left." Zhang Youdong wrote, "But you also know that if more than 40 people acted together in that kind of situation, there would definitely be problems. So, after a little discussion, we decided to act separately. Even if we were chased, we could let the others escape. So, we split into four teams."
Li Huailin counted the number of people on his side. As expected, there were only about ten people. It seemed that the other four teams had about the same number of people. Of course, Li Huailin also told the few people behind him about the current situation.
"Of course, we have prepared communication tools on our side. According to the previous plan, we will contact them after everyone is safe. But so far, only the people from the other team have contacted us. The other two teams … have not responded yet," Zhang Youdong continued to write.
"In other words, the people from these two teams may have all died?" Li Huailin asked.
"Probably …" Zhang Youdong wrote these two words with a little difficulty. To be honest, looking at the other party's current situation, Li Huailin was not sure if the other party was pretending or not.
"In that case, the team we are going to pick up is the only team that we have contacted now," Li Huailin said. "Do you know their location?"
"Yes." Zhang Youdong answered immediately. As he spoke, he took out something that looked like a compass. It was a small round iron plate with a pointer on it. He then continued to introduce it to Li Huailin. "This is the communication tool. Follow it, and you will find the location of the other team."
Li Huailin picked up the thing and looked at it. He found that the pointer on it did not point in a fixed direction. It was just spinning around.
"At the moment, we can't specify the location of this thing." Zhang Youdong seemed to have seen through Li Huailin's thoughts. He quickly explained, "If we want to show the other party's location, we need to get the other party's consent. Otherwise, the thing in the hands of the two teams that were attacked would have sold us out. If you're sure that you want to pick them up, I'll contact them immediately. If not … then don't send them any messages … "
"I see." Li Huailin nodded. There was no problem with this setting. He turned around and told the Jade Emperor and the others about the current situation.
"Of course." The Summoning Jade Emperor said without thinking. After all, they were saving a human's life. The Summoning Jade Emperor, who had a more upright view of the world, nodded his head immediately. After summoning the Jade Emperor, Fire Head, who was beside him, also nodded. It was obvious that he agreed. On the other hand, Peanut looked a little excited. He was probably fantasizing about some superhero movie. On the other hand, Malinka also expressed her opinion. Of course, she agreed to the rescue.
"If that's the case, let's go." Li Huailin nodded. He didn't object to the rescue. Of course, it wasn't because he wanted to be a hero, nor was it because of his sense of justice. He just felt that these people were still useful. At the moment, these programmers were still very important to Li Huailin. Otherwise, Li Huailin wouldn't have come here to rescue them. Now, he couldn't always listen to Zhang Youdong's side of the story. It was better to save more people.
"But it seems like this rescue won't be that simple. It seems like there are two groups of people looking for us. One is an NPC, which is easy to deal with. However, the other group is also a programmer. What if we meet them again?" Li Huailin thought for a while and asked.
The few of them looked around and didn't have any good ideas. Yes, they couldn't just kill them. After all, they were real humans. But what if the other party attacked them?
"Now that we have a translator on our side, can we try to negotiate with them again?" Jade Emperor Summoning said after some thought. Of course, the translator was referring to Zhang Youdong.
"That's possible." Li Huailin nodded. "But what if they don't listen?"
"Then we can only fight," Jade Emperor Summoning said after some thought. "But we can't hurt them. Don't use Law-based skills. After all, I have a halo on my side."
Li Huailin narrowed his eyes. To be honest, if the other party didn't intend to leave with them, they would die if they stayed here. In Li Huailin's opinion, if the other party wasn't willing to negotiate, they would be courting death. So, what was the difference between being killed and staying here and waiting for death? Jade Emperor Summoning felt like he was deceiving himself. However, Li Huailin wasn't prepared to say anything.
"Alright, it's decided." Li Huailin nodded. The other four nodded as well. For the time being, they had decided on this plan. Li Huailin immediately told Zhang Youdong about the situation.
"That's great. I'll contact them immediately," Zhang Youdong said. He then picked up the compass and prepared to take action. However, as soon as he picked it up, the compass suddenly jumped and made a "da da da" sound.
"The other party's contact." Zhang Youdong wrote for Li Huailin while pressing a button on the compass.
"Wa la wa la wa la la!" An urgent voice came from the compass. Of course, Li Huailin couldn't understand it, but he could tell that the other party was very anxious.
"Wahla … wahla wahla …" Zhang Youdong immediately replied in a language he didn't know.
"Wa la wa la …" The other party also replied anxiously. Both sides immediately exchanged a few words. As Li Huailin couldn't understand the process, he didn't know what was going on. However, very quickly, Zhang Youdong put down the compass in his hand and wrote to Li Huailin anxiously.
"Oh no, there's a problem over there. It seems like they've been surrounded by NPC troops. They're now doing a carpet search. It seems like they'll find them sooner or later," Zhang Youdong wrote.
"In other words, we have to rush over now? Can we make it in time? Is it far from here? "Li Huailin asked.
"It shouldn't be very far." Zhang Youdong wrote. "But we're not very familiar with the terrain here. Let's hurry. I've already told them that you're here. Let's try to wait as long as possible. "
Of course, Li Huailin didn't have any objections. Of course, he didn't have any problem summoning the Jade Emperor. Therefore, everyone immediately prepared to set off for the other party's stronghold. All the programmers in the entire hidden spot immediately packed their things. Including the undercover programmer who brought them here, there were a total of 13 people. In addition to Li Huailin's group of five, there was a team of 18 people. This team was slightly large. If they were to rush through the forest, it would be more obvious.
"Should we let some people in first?" Jade Emperor asked. Of course, he was referring to entering the temple. Of course, Jade Emperor knew that Li Huailin was going to use the temple to transport them out. If some people went in, it would reduce the number of targets.
"Let's talk about it later." However, Li Huailin refused. As for the specific reason, Li Huailin didn't take the time to explain. In fact, it was mainly because he didn't trust Zhang Youdong. Also, the programmers here were actually very strong. They could still be used as combat power. Jade Emperor didn't continue to insist. At present, with the halo in hand, the lives of these people could be guaranteed. They only had to worry about the problem of being delayed.
Time was of the essence, and they didn't have much time to prepare before the troops set off. Perhaps it was because they had been hiding in the dark underground for too long, when they first came out, the group of programmers couldn't keep their eyes open due to the sunlight. After resting for a while, they slowly recovered.
Zhang Youdong also used the compass locator in his hand to check the direction. After confirming the location, he signaled everyone to follow him. Along the way, Zhang Youdong walked at the front and led the way. Li Huailin walked beside him. From time to time, the two of them would communicate with each other through a piece of paper.
They didn't get any important information, but Li Huailin knew that the leader of the rebellious programmers was a European called Wales. He should be the Blademaster programmer who attacked Li Huailin previously. According to Zhang Youdong, there were more than 20 programmers who rebelled with him. These people's combat power was stronger than theirs because they belonged to the expedition team.
The so-called expedition team was actually a team that went out to collect things. Previously, when Zhang Youdong and the others were still in the human main city, some of them followed Zhang Youdong and stayed in the city to be responsible for research and the like. The other group was to collect resources. This Wales was the leader of the outgoing team. According to Zhang Youdong's words, this person was considered a friend of his. It was just that he didn't know what happened to him recently, but he suddenly caused trouble. Maybe it was because he was really under too much pressure.
The leader of the team that they were going to rescue was also Zhang Youdong's friend. His name was Jie Ding. First of all, there were currently eight people alive. However, Li Huailin wasn't interested in this. He wanted to ask something else. Just when he was about to ask, Zhang Youdong suddenly pulled Li Huailin and gestured for Li Huailin to lower his body.
Of course, Li Huailin's reaction was also very fast. He immediately lowered his body and raised his head. Immediately, Li Huailin saw a black figure flying over from the sky. Moreover, the direction that the figure was flying in was exactly where they were. Now that there was a little distance between them, they still couldn't tell whether the person flying over was an NPC or a programmer. Of course, it would be best if they could avoid it.
