Her face turned visibly pale, and her lips lost their color.
Each time her mental energy was pushed to its limit, it felt like her soul was being burned.
Su Xuan stood to the side, his palms sweating nervously.
He was currently responsible for recording data, operating the old oscilloscope, and preparing for any unexpected situations that might arise.
Time passed slowly amidst the hissing of liquid nitrogen; the cubicle was bitterly cold, like an ice cellar.
Mingzhao's forehead was also covered with fine beads of sweat.
Sudden.
"Sizzle..." A piercing explosion suddenly erupted from the brass cavity.

Mingzhao remained calm and focused, his mind completely concentrated, like two invisible giant hands, one of which firmly grasped the gushing liquid nitrogen jet, forcibly binding and deflecting it!
The other one abruptly severed the physical connection point of the high-voltage power supply!
"Pfft!" The liquid nitrogen stream, forcibly deflected, struck the opposite wall, instantly freezing the concrete surface until it cracked and covered it with a thick layer of white frost!

The cubicle was a mess, and a chill filled the air.
Mingzhao staggered, grabbing the table to steady himself. His face was as pale as paper, veins bulging on his temples, and he was panting heavily, each breath accompanied by a tearing pain in his lungs.
