The energy fluctuations released after the crystal was suspended were like giant waves crashing against the shore, causing the entire experimental base to shake violently, as if it might collapse at any moment.
Despite his headache, Lu Zhaoming slowly stood up and noticed a faint blue light flowing between his palms.
The light flickered, sometimes bright, sometimes dim, like the brightest star in the night sky, yet it also carried a hint of dangerous sharpness.
"This is... a superpower?" Lu Zhaoming muttered to himself, trying to control the power, but found that he was completely unable to control it.
A deep blue light danced in his hand, like a pack of frenzied wild beasts, ready to break free at any moment.
Lu Zhaoming moved slightly, and the light in his palm suddenly flashed, almost bursting out and nearly injuring Su Li beside him.
"Zhaoming, are you alright?" Su Li's voice carried a hint of worry. Her gaze shifted back and forth between Lu Zhaoming and the flickering light, her expression complex and unreadable.
"System, please give me a hint," Lu Zhaoming prayed silently.
The system's voice rang in his mind: "Host's ability is not yet stable, please avoid overuse."
"Damn it, this is a total rip-off!" Lu Zhaoming cursed inwardly, but then realized that he had to get familiar with this ability as soon as possible, otherwise it might endanger the safety of the team.
He took a deep breath, trying to calm his inner turmoil, and said to Su Li and Lin Shuang, "Sister Li, Sister Shuang, take them and leave here! It's not safe here."
Su Li stared intently at him, her eyes filled with both worry and barely perceptible excitement.
She bit her lip, pulled Xiao Cui up, called to Lin Shuang, Bai Yu, and Xiao Dao, and ran quickly outside.
In the last moment before they left, Su Li suddenly turned around and shouted to Lu Zhaoming, "Remember, I'll wait for you to come back... Let's do something big together!" A bewitching smile appeared on her lips, as if foreshadowing an extraordinary future.
Lu Zhaoming didn't have time to think too much; he had to adapt to this superpower as soon as possible.
He tried to concentrate and feel the flow of that deep blue light.
But every attempt felt like fighting a wild beast; a slight misstep could lead to a backlash.
The team decided to temporarily leave the hall and find a more secluded area to rest.
They moved quickly down the narrow corridor, their hearts pounding, each step filled with tension and alertness.
However, at the end of what seemed to be a safe passage, they were ambushed by the vanguard squad sent by Leng Yue.
The enemy was well-equipped and well-trained, and gunfire erupted, with sparks flying everywhere.
Bai Yu was injured in the firefight, his clothes stained with blood, and his condition was critical.
Seeing this, Lu Zhaoming decided to take the risk and try to integrate his superpowers into the battle.
He concentrated, and a dark blue light suddenly erupted from his palm, forming a barrier that instantly blocked the enemy's bullets.
"Quickly, retreat now!" Lu Zhaoming roared, using all his strength to maintain the barrier.
The teammates seized the opportunity and retreated.
However, due to the excessive strain on his body, he suddenly felt dizzy, lost his balance, and briefly fell into a coma.
When Lu Zhaoming woke up, he found himself in an abandoned laboratory.
Xiao Cui was bandaging his wounds when she saw Lu Zhaoming wake up. She rushed over, her eyes filled with tears.
"Brother Zhaoming, you're finally awake! Lengyue has located our position and plans to launch a full-scale annihilation." Xiao Cui's voice trembled slightly, but her eyes were filled with determination.
Lu Zhaoming nodded, enduring his physical discomfort, and calmly analyzed the situation.
He glanced around and noticed some old equipment and scattered tools in the laboratory.
He had a sudden inspiration and decided to use the base's complex terrain to set a trap, while deliberately leaking false information to mislead the enemy into going deep into the dangerous area.
"Su Li, Bai Yu, go and repair that old surveillance equipment. I need to know Leng Yue's exact location," Lu Zhaoming instructed.
Su Li and Bai Yu worked together to repair an old surveillance device and observed Leng Yue personally leading a team to approach through the screen.
She was clad in black armor and wielded a longsword that exuded a chilling aura; her strength far surpassed that of ordinary pursuers.
Lu Zhaoming did feel the pressure increase, but he did not back down. Instead, he urged everyone to remain vigilant.
"Xiao Dao, take Xiao Cui and Bai Yu to a safe place and wait for my signal." Lu Zhaoming continued to assign tasks, then turned to Su Li and Lin Shuang and said, "Sister Li, Sister Shuang, you are responsible for setting the trap. Make sure it is foolproof."
With clear division of labor, everyone sprang into action.
Lu Zhaoming closed his eyes and meditated, trying to perceive the operating rules of his superpower.
He recalled the method taught by the old blind man: to concentrate and feel the flow of energy within his body.
Finally, after countless attempts and failures, he barely mastered the basic control techniques, and was able to condense energy to form an attack wave in a short time.
"Get ready, Leng Yue is coming soon." Lu Zhaoming's voice was deep and firm, and his eyes gleamed with an unusual light.
He took a deep breath, condensed the energy in his hand into a ball of light, and slowly raised his hand, ready to launch an attack at any moment.
At the laboratory door, faint footsteps sounded, like the whisper of death.
Lu Zhaoming could feel the tense atmosphere in the air; every minute and every second seemed to drag on.
He gripped the ball of light tightly, a cold smile playing on his lips.
"Finally..." Lu Zhaoming muttered to himself. The trap was activated, and Leng Yue appeared.
With a sickening "click" sound, Leng Yue took the lead, leading her well-equipped underlings into the laboratory.
Lu Zhaoming grinned, thinking to himself, "Welcome! Your satisfaction is guaranteed!"
