"What exactly happened here?!" Lin Xin's expression was somewhat deliberately composed, but more than that, there was a hint of panic.
"Why is there no one around?"
He did stop, but he was only a dozen meters away from the group.
The handsome man with white hair scrutinized Lin Xin.
"Since you're also a straggler, stand behind me. I'm an Imperial Army Fourth Elite Regiment soldier; protecting citizens is our duty!"
When he said this, he was very serious, not the kind of perfunctory speech; it was more like he regarded this responsibility as a mission, a kind of honor.
Lin Xin immediately showed a look of solemn respect.
"Thank you, thank you. If there's anything you need my help with, just ask."
"Alright." The white-haired man nodded. "Now follow me, my source energy senses that somewhere in this direction lies the key to escaping this environment."
"I understand."
Lin Xin didn't say much and joined the team.
