Chapter 13 The Enclosed Life Pod

The water has flooded over his s.h.i.+n. Xiao Yan walked over to where the cage once was and looked around in search for something.

”Xiao Yan, what are you looking for?” Maya came to his side, feeling curious.

”My gun!” Xiao Yan replied without lifting his head, ”It could have been washed away to somewhere else by the water,” he said while searching through the water.

”Xiao Yan! That gun is not powerful enough to burst our way through the walls!” Maya hauled him up from the water, not wanting him to waste his effort.

”Not to burst a hole! There's an energy convertor within the gun! And there's the energy operator! I might be able to open the door with them!”

Xiao Yan was kneeling within the water while speaking, and as the water rises gradually, he dived into it without a second thought, searching. However, he could hardly see a thing in the murky water.

He then felt a presence came beside him, and he saw a vague figure of the person's elegant features through the murkiness,

A hand circled his waist and pulled him out from the water, firm and powerful.

”Ha……” Xiao Yan gasped for air while wiping off the water from his face, only then he noticed the person standing before him was Heine.

Without a word, Heine hand out a gun to Xiao Yan as the water dripped down from his hair. No one has expected Heine, a stickler for hygiene, would help Xiao Yan to look for his gun in the murky water.

Xiao Yan was overjoyed, ”Thank goodness! It's right here!”

”What's your plan?” there was no hesitance in Heine's eyes, as though he had long known whatever Xiao Yan does will work out.

Xiao Yan s.h.i.+fted his gaze to the only door in the room, a faint red light was flas.h.i.+ng above it.

”I need to reach that height.”

”Yes! Colonel!”

With that, Mark heaved Xiao Yan onto his shoulder. His towering build helped Xiao Yan to reach the flas.h.i.+ng light easily.

He disa.s.sembled the gun and removed its power source and connects it to the electrical connector of the door.

The water level has flooded over Mark's chest.
