After returning to the team, Lu Zhaoming quickly shared the information provided by Xiaomei with Professor Lin.
Professor Lin's expression instantly turned serious, and his white hair appeared even more disheveled in the dim light.
He stroked his chin and analyzed, "Red Owl's plan is to combine 'Annihilation Light' with 'Project Sky Dome' to control the minds of survivors using alien technology. Once successful, all survivors in the wasteland will become his puppets."
Lu Zhaoming frowned, realizing that he had to destroy the lair before Chi Xiao could complete his plan.
Time was of the essence, so he activated the system interface, and his eyes lit up—the prototype of the "Eye of Judgment" had been unlocked, which gave him more confidence.
"Good! There's hope!" Lu Zhaoming muttered to himself, a confident smile playing on his lips.
He decided to test the new ability first.
Lu Zhaoming had Xiaomei simulate the white fox's illusion attack.
Xiao Mei nodded, closed her eyes, and formed a hand seal, instantly filling the air with an eerie atmosphere.
Lu Zhaoming closed his eyes and sensed the energy fluctuations of the system.
Everything around them gradually became clearer, and even Xiaomei's subtle emotional fluctuations could be sensed.
He slowly opened his eyes and whispered, "The Eye of Judgment can not only see the truth, but also predict the opponent's actions."
Xiao Mei's illusion attack came at him instantly, but Lu Zhaoming easily dodged every attack.
He seemed to be able to see the flaws in the illusion in advance, and his every move was effortless.
Xiaomei was stunned, her admiration overflowing.
"This...how is this possible?!" Xiaomei asked in surprise.
Lu Zhaoming smiled and said, "Everything is under control." He clenched his fist, feeling the system energy flowing continuously within his body, which gave him even more confidence.
Meanwhile, the defenses of Blood Raven's Lair have been fully upgraded.
Chi Xiao personally oversaw the command, his face cold and ruthless.
Green Snake respectfully reported, "The Judge has turned Xiao Mei against me." Red Owl sneered, "It's alright, I'll make him understand what the price of betraying me is." He then ordered Black Tower and White Fox to strengthen the defenses of the core area and prepared to activate "Annihilation Light".
Lu Zhaoming decided to split his forces into three groups to launch a surprise attack on the Blood Raven's lair.
He instructed Xiao Hu to distract the outer patrol teams, while A Fu hacked into the security system in the main control room, and he himself headed straight for the core area.
With a burning passion in his eyes, Xiao Hu patted his chest and assured him, "Major, don't worry, I will complete the mission!"
Ah Fu looked serious, put on sunglasses, took out a stack of complicated instruments, and said, "I will get the security system sorted out as soon as possible. You must be careful."
Lu Zhaoming nodded and led Xiaomei and Afu off.
During the journey, he used his Eye of Judgment to precisely avoid ambushes and even predicted the location of a trap in advance, successfully saving Xiao Hu from falling into the trap.
"Major, let's go!" Xiao Hu, still in shock, quickly grabbed Lu Zhaoming's sleeve.
Lu Zhaoming did not rush to leave. Instead, he glanced at the location of the trap and a cold smile appeared on his lips: "Chi Xiao, your scheme is nothing special."
As they approached, the air grew increasingly thick with murderous intent.
Lu Zhaoming gripped the gun tightly, his eyes as sharp as a hawk's.
He knew in his heart that this great battle had only just begun.
Suddenly, a warning popped up on the system interface, but he didn't have time to think about it. He just stared intently at the core area in front of him, his eyes revealing a resolute look.
Just as they drew closer to the core area, the oppressive atmosphere, almost solidifying the air, suddenly caused a series of rapid beeps on the cool system interface in front of Lu Zhaoming, followed by a blood-red warning box: "Warning! Warning! Ultra-high-level energy reaction detected in the area ahead! Preliminary assessment: The 'Light of Annihilation' core activation program has been activated!" The words were so red they looked like they were about to burst from the screen!
Lu Zhaoming's pupils suddenly contracted, and his heart skipped a beat. Holy crap, that old bastard Chi Xiao really went all out, without any hesitation at all!
This "Light of Annihilation" doesn't sound like a good thing. It's probably going to kill them instantly, scattering them to the winds along with their ashes!
Time, this damn time, is now more precious than gold!
He took a deep breath, and the cold air mixed with a faint smell of burning went straight to his head, instantly calming him down.
He lowered his voice, but it was like a steel needle piercing everyone's ears: "Everyone, floor the gas pedal! That bastard Chi Xiao is about to unleash his ultimate move! If we dawdle any longer, we'll be holding a collective memorial service here, with 'River Flows to the Sea' playing in the background!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Hu's face turned pale, and he almost dropped the gun in his hand. A Fu also had a "Holy crap" expression on his face. Even Xiao Mei, who had been completely unaware, sensed the terrifying pressure of impending death, and her little face tightened.
Lu Zhaoming's eyes flashed with a sharp light as he swept his gaze over the crowd. Without uttering another word, he abruptly waved his hand, his roguish charm returning: "Attention everyone! Level one combat readiness! Charge with me! Today we'll show Chi Xiao why flowers are so red!"
