"Icebreaker scouting team spotted!" shouted the sentry on the watchtower.
Xiao Yi quickly entered combat mode: "Everyone, get in position! Act according to the plan!"
Lin Xue stood still: "Brother Xiao Yi, let me help. I know their patrol route."
Xiao Yi hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded: "Okay, but you must follow me closely."
In the following battle, Lin Xue's intelligence played a key role. She accurately pointed out the weaknesses of the Ice Reconnaissance Team and helped Xiao Yi and his team successfully repel the enemy.
After the battle, Chen Feng found Xiao Yi: "We have cracked some of the Frozen's communication codes. Their large-scale purification operation has been advanced to dawn tomorrow!"
Xiao Yi clenched his fists: "Then let's give them a surprise."
He called all the core members together and began to deploy the final plan. Lin Xue also participated in the meeting, and the several suggestions she made impressed everyone.
"We've discovered an old subway line underground," Lin Xue said, pointing to the map. "It leads directly to the Icebreakers' main base. If we can launch a surprise attack from here..."
Xiao Yi smiled approvingly: "It's a good plan. But..." He looked at everyone, "This will be a life-and-death battle. If anyone wants to quit, they can leave now."
No one moved.
"Very good," Xiao Yi stood up, "then let us seek justice for this city and for all the lives lost!"
In the night, tiny lights lit up the survivor base, like a flame of hope in the darkness. Within this glow, a thin figure stood out—it was Lin Xue. She was checking her equipment, her eyes gleaming with a determination that belied her age.
Tomorrow, they will face the Icebreaker. No matter the outcome, this will be a battle that will change their fate...
The night was as dark as ink. Twenty selected commandos gathered at the subway entrance. Xiao Yi was doing the final pre-battle inspection.
"Remember," he whispered, "our goal is to destroy the purification system, not engage in direct confrontation. Chen Feng, you lead a team responsible for technical support; Doctor Li, you lead the medical team on standby; Lin Xue..." He hesitated, "You come with me."
Lin Xue nodded, her young face filled with determination. She was carrying a specially made backpack containing the equipment needed to crack the Icebreaker system.
Chen Feng adjusted the detector in his hand: "The subway line has been in disrepair for a long time, and many places have collapsed. We must proceed with caution."
The team crept silently underground. Flashlight beams cast faint streaks of light in the pitch-black tunnel. The air was filled with the smell of mold and rust, and the occasional sound of dripping water could be heard.
After walking for about half an hour, a collapse appeared in front of them. Xiao Yi was about to order a detour when Lin Xue suddenly stopped him and said, "Wait! There's a secret door here!"
She groped along the wall and soon found a hidden control panel. With the sound of mechanical operation, the wall slowly opened, revealing a new passage.
"This is..." Chen Feng looked at the advanced equipment in the passage in surprise, "The Iceman's secret passage!"
Xiao Yi raised his gun vigilantly: "Everyone stay alert. Lin Xue, how did you know there was a secret door here?"
Lin Xue's expression was a little confused. "I...I don't know either. I just feel like there should be a path here..."
This answer made Xiao Yi feel a little doubtful, but now was not the time to delve into it.
The team continued to move forward, and the passage gradually sloped downward. Suddenly, a sound of machinery came from the front.
"Hide!" Xiao Yi ordered in a low voice.
Everyone quickly ducked into the shadows. A team of Icebreaker patrol robots slid past on tracks overhead, their red scanning beams sweeping the passage.
After the robots had gone away, Dr. Li whispered, "These robots... their design looks familiar..."
"It looks like military technology," Chen Feng said, "but it's more advanced than any model I know of."
At this moment, Lin Xue suddenly covered her head and let out a painful groan.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Yi quickly supported her.
"Head...headache..." Lin Xue said with difficulty, "It seems like some memories are about to come out..."
Xiao Yi's heart was filled with alarm. He recalled all the abnormalities that Lin Xue had shown before: her familiarity with the Iceman base, her intuition for high-tech equipment... all of this pointed to a terrible possibility.
But before he had time to think about it, there was a sudden commotion ahead.
"Intruder detected!" A mechanical voice echoed in the passage.
"Damn it, we've been discovered!" Xiao Yi made a quick decision, "Chen Feng, you lead the main force and continue forward! Doctor Li, you take care of Lin Xue! I'll cover the rear!"
The battle broke out instantly. The Icebreaker's robot army rushed in from all directions, and Xiao Yi led several team members to fight hard.
"Hurry up!" he shouted at Chen Feng, "Remember our goal!"
Chen Feng gritted his teeth and nodded, continuing to advance with the main force. Doctor Li followed behind, supporting Lin Xue, but Lin Xue's condition was getting worse.
"I... I remember now..." Lin Xue said painfully, "I am... I am the Iceman's experimental subject..."
Dr. Li looked at her in shock: "What?"
"They...they implanted a chip in my brain..." Lin Xue's eyes flashed a mechanical red light, "I...I can't control it..."
Suddenly, she pushed Dr. Li away and ran in the opposite direction.
"Lin Xue!" Doctor Li shouted, but it was too late. Lin Xue's figure quickly disappeared at the end of the corridor.
