The night was as dark as ink. Outside the abandoned nuclear power plant, Lu Zhaoming stood on a broken concrete slab, gazing resolutely into the distance.
A resolute glint appeared in his eyes, but a cold smile played on his lips.
He knew that Liu Feng's spirit had completely collapsed and could not be salvaged.
But he did not give up. He ordered Su Li to do everything she could to treat Liu Feng, and at the same time, he gathered his team to formulate a final surprise attack plan.
“Su Li, do your best,” Lu Zhaoming’s voice was deep and firm. “Only if Liu Feng is still alive will we have a chance to strike at Chi Xiao.”
Su Li nodded and quickly began preparing the first aid equipment.
Her fingers flew across the keyboard, as if racing against time.
Lu Zhaoming then turned and walked to the map, carefully studying the movements of the Crimson Owl.
According to the system's analysis, Red Owl's true hiding place is located underground in an abandoned nuclear power plant.
That place is not only the core control center of the "Dawn of Light" project, but also the weakest point of the Crimson Owl's forces.
"Old Wolf, you lead your team to draw attention from the front, while Qinglian will take the detour and infiltrate. Make sure the operation goes perfectly." Lu Zhaoming's tone left no room for doubt, and every instruction was precise.
Old Wolf nodded and led his team away quickly, while Qinglian disappeared into the night like a ghost.
Lu Zhaoming took a deep breath and sneaked into the nuclear power plant alone.
His heart was filled with tension and unease, but even more so with hatred for Red Owl.
Along the way, he encountered a small team led by Old Wolf.
Old Wolf looked exhausted, but a resolute glint appeared in his eyes: "Lu Zhaoming, Red Owl has already dispatched a large number of mercenaries to seal off the surrounding area. He has obviously sensed something. You must be careful."
Lu Zhaoming nodded and quickly adjusted his strategy.
He took advantage of the terrain, ordering his squad to distract the enemy while sending Qinglian to infiltrate the target area via a detour.
At this moment, Lu Zhaoming's heart was filled with tension and unease.
Upon entering the nuclear power plant, Lu Zhaoming discovered that it was filled with complex defense systems and patrol teams.
Using the resource exploration function provided by the system, he successfully avoided multiple traps and finally found Red Owl's secret command center.
However, when he tried to crack the terminal password, the alarm suddenly went off, and the lights in the entire room instantly became blinding.
Chi Xiao's voice came over the loudspeaker: "Lu Zhaoming, you really came. Too bad, you can't escape this time."
Before he could finish speaking, a large number of guards rushed into the room and surrounded Lu Zhaoming.
Their weapons were pointed at Lu Zhaoming, as if a single command would tear him to pieces.
However, Lu Zhaoming did not panic. He knew that every second from now on was a matter of life and death.
Just then, Xiao Hu suddenly appeared and used the excuse of "escorting prisoners" to cover Lu Zhaoming's escape.
His face bore a resolute expression, yet his eyes revealed a hint of tragic grandeur.
It turns out that Little Tiger had already sensed Red Owl's ambition and decided to sacrifice himself to help the protagonist complete the mission.
Lu Zhaoming was startled, but remained calm on the surface and quickly used the environment to create chaos.
"Red Owl, you bastard!" Lu Zhaoming's voice echoed amidst the chaos, yet it was full of power and determination.
He quickly used objects in the environment to create chaos, and then slipped away into the night.
The guards stared in disbelief, as if they couldn't believe what they were seeing.
Lu Zhaoming's figure gradually disappeared into the darkness, leaving only a faint echo in the air.
"This is just the calm before the storm." Lu Zhaoming's voice echoed in the night sky, seemingly issuing a final warning to Chi Xiao.
Lu Zhaoming moved like a ghost, disappearing into the complex pipelines of the nuclear power plant in a few leaps.
He knew that the old fox Chi Xiao was definitely rubbing his hands together, waiting for him to come to his aid, but just wait and see, it's not certain who will win or lose!
After escaping danger, he immediately contacted Old Wolf and Su Li via communicator: "Everyone retreat! Meet at the usual place!" His voice carried a barely perceptible urgency.
Back at their temporary base—a dilapidated abandoned warehouse—Lu Zhaoming, without even catching his breath, immediately gathered everyone together.
Under the dim light, everyone's face was etched with fatigue and solemnity.
"Next, we're going to pull off something big!" Lu Zhaoming's eyes flashed with a dangerous light, like a bloodthirsty lone wolf.
"Activate 'Ultimate Judgment' and send that brat Chi Xiao to hell!"
Just then, a scarlet warning box suddenly popped up on the system interface: "Warning! The host must defeat Crimson Owl in battle, otherwise the Doomsday Judgment System will be permanently shut down!"
"Damn it, are you kidding me?" Lu Zhaoming cursed under his breath. This damn system, it always fails me at the crucial moment!
He clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles turned white from the force.
"It's just taking on a boss one-on-one, who's afraid of who!"
He took a deep breath, his gaze sweeping over the crowd, his tone resolute: "No matter the cost..."
Su Li suddenly smiled charmingly, interrupting him: "Oh, Judge Lu, what's wrong, scared? How about I give you a kiss, a hug, and lift you up high to give you some courage?"
