During his brief conversation with the mysterious figure, Xiao Yi caught a key word: "Star Stone." He had a vague feeling that this "Star Stone" was closely connected to the Crimson Cross's collection of mutant genes and the mysterious organization's actions, and might be the key to unlocking all the mysteries. As new clues emerged, Xiao Yi and Dr. Lin realized that the secrets behind this battle were far more complex than they had imagined, and they were caught up in a massive storm that would change the course of the world.

Xiao Yi and Dr. Lin kept their eyes on the mysterious man while simultaneously thinking about how to crack the file's encryption. Xiao Yi knew time was running out and that the black-robed leader could attack again at any moment, so he had to act quickly. He concentrated, using his causal control abilities to silently construct a cause-and-effect relationship in his mind: "If we can find the encryption cracking device hidden in the lab, we can unlock the file's contents."

As this law of cause and effect took effect, a wall in the laboratory slowly vibrated, revealing a hidden compartment. Inside was an advanced encryption cracking device. Dr. Lin's eyes flashed with surprise, and he immediately removed it and connected it to the console displaying the encrypted file. However, upon activation, the cracking device indicated that it required a special key to proceed.

At this moment, a short member of the mysterious team suddenly said: "You can't crack it. The encryption method of this file is unique to our organization." Xiao Yi keenly caught the flaw in his words, and with an idea in his mind, he once again used the law of causality to manipulate his supernatural power: "Let this mysterious person accidentally reveal the key information of the key."

The mysterious figure seemed to be losing control, unconsciously mumbling a few numbers and symbols. Dr. Lin quickly entered this information into the cracking device, and the progress bar on the encrypted file began to slowly advance. But just as the cracking was about to be completed, the black-robed leader noticed their intentions and, despite his injuries, unleashed a wave of black energy at the cracking device with all his might.

Xiao Yi reacted quickly, applying the laws of causality to control his supernatural powers, causing the black energy wave to change direction before reaching the cracking device. The black energy wave instantly changed direction, striking a nearby experimental device and causing a violent explosion. The resulting smoke provided a brief cover for Xiao Yi and Dr. Lin.

Dr. Lin seized this opportunity, concentrating his attention on the cracking device. At the crucial moment, the file was successfully cracked. The screen displayed detailed information about the mysterious organization and the "Star Stone," as well as the exact location of Area X-12 and the terrifying plan about to be launched. They finally grasped the key clue, but danger was imminent. The mysterious organization and its black-robed leader would not let them off easily after learning of the secret.

Xiao Yi and Dr. Lin knew that the mysterious organization would never give up and that they didn't have much time left. They quickly collected some potentially useful materials in the laboratory, including energy shield generators, portable weapons, and first aid medicines, and then set off for Area X-12.

Along the way, Xiao Yi remained vigilant, using the law of causality to control his supernatural powers to sense potential dangers in advance. Dr. Lin, based on clues in the documents, planned the most covert route on the map to avoid direct confrontation with the patrol team of the mysterious organization.

However, their whereabouts were discovered by a mysterious organization. Several aircraft rapidly flew towards them, equipped with powerful weapon systems and fierce firepower. Seeing this, Xiao Yi immediately unleashed his causal control ability, causing the aircraft's navigation system to malfunction and the attack direction to deviate. The aircraft suddenly lost control in mid-air, and the missiles launched flew towards the uninhabited area.

But the mysterious organization did not give up the pursuit and they continued to send reinforcements. Xiao Yi and Dr. Lin could only fight and retreat, using the surrounding terrain for cover. In a fierce exchange of fire, Dr. Lin was unfortunately injured in the leg. Xiao Yi was extremely anxious. On the one hand, he had to deal with the enemy's attack, and on the other hand, he had to take care of Dr. Lin.

At a critical moment, Xiao Yi discovered an abandoned factory nearby. Using the laws of causality to manipulate his supernatural powers, he caused the factory's defenses to automatically activate, blocking the enemy's attack. The factory's gates slowly closed, and the defensive turrets began automatically attacking the enemy. Xiao Yi seized the opportunity to bring Dr. Lin into the factory and provide emergency treatment for her injuries.

After treatment, Dr. Lin's injuries were under control. After a brief rest, they continued their journey towards Area X-12. Finally, they arrived at the entrance to Area X-12. It was enveloped by a powerful energy shield and surrounded by various defensive structures. Xiao Yi and Dr. Lin knew that entering Area X-12 would present even greater challenges. Whether they could successfully penetrate the defenses and thwart the mysterious organization's terrifying plans remained uncertain.

After Xiao Yi treated Dr. Lin's wound in the factory, the two of them took a short rest before beginning to explore the place that had temporarily sheltered them. Dim lights flickered in the factory, and all sorts of old and unfamiliar equipment were placed around, with a smell of decay in the air.

As they walked, Xiao Yi suddenly sensed a powerful energy surge emanating from deep within the factory. He signaled Dr. Lin to be cautious, and the two slowly approached the source of the energy surge. When they reached the entrance to a large basement, they discovered it was blocked by a heavy stone door. The stone door was engraved with strange symbols, similar to those they had previously seen in the clues to the mysterious organization.

Xiao Yi attempted to use the law of causality to manipulate his supernatural powers and open the stone door, silently reciting, "The stone door's lock core is unlocked by energy resonance." However, the stone door only vibrated slightly and did not open. As they pondered a countermeasure, the sound of the mysterious organization's aircraft approaching again was heard outside the factory. Clearly, the enemy had not given up pursuit despite the factory's defenses.
