It's too late to repent
Once the device is activated, it cannot be stopped and will trigger the autonomous braking function if it is damaged.
If the signal is cut off, the command will be transmitted immediately. This controller is transmitted through light sensing, and the only way is to cut off the photosensitive particles when the command is transmitted.
But this thing is barely visible to the naked eye, thinner than a hair, and it moves. The moment the cable is cut, when the particles begin to propagate in a certain direction, it must be cleverly deflected to prevent the ion from being launched and spread.
If Ye Lin had been confident in the past, she wouldn't be so sure now. If she couldn't stop it, this continent would immediately become a poisonous city.
She clenched her wrists. The death of the doctor and her senior brothers had left her with psychological barriers. Once bitten by a snake, one becomes afraid of ropes for ten years.
Overcoming it is also a challenge for her, and if she fails, she will be confirmed as a sinner.
"Mo Ping, we have no way out. Remember, we only have this one chance. If we make a mistake, we will all die here." Wu Buke added a setting to the device. The moment the forced command was turned on, the controller would explode immediately, blowing the people to ashes.
Mo Ping's heart was pounding and she kept exhaling to regulate her breathing.
She reached for the cable with the cable cutters, her expression firm and resolute.
Ye Lin set the wristband to an energy cluster close to the measurement of a particle.
"three."
"two."
Ye Lin tried to push the limits of her vision, constantly magnifying the details she could see without blinking.
"one!"
"Cut!"
Mo Ping cut the cable and closed her eyes.
Tears of blood flowed from Ye Lin's eyes, and balls of energy shot out.
!!!
The shot missed, and she didn't have time to hide the look of astonishment on her face.
…
On the main battlefield where the carrier was located, the team was tied to pillars and had no power to fight back.
A man walked over step by step, and Jianyi made way for him.
Wu Bu Ke, who exuded a gloomy aura, raised his head, and the leaders of other forces also surrounded him.
"Lord Yuquan, we have captured these outsiders who attempted to destroy the continent. Now, can you tell us how to destroy this strange creature?"
Wu Bu Ke raised his lips to a wicked smile, "Very good."
"Then you can now..."
"Go die immediately."
Everyone was shocked, "Wu Bu Ke, what do you mean?"
"Literally, a bunch of fools who believe everything they hear! If your stance hadn't wavered, how could my Wubu Royal Family, which has stood firm, have been defeated?!"
"Did you plan all this? Are you the culprit who created this thing?" said one of the landlords.
"You're not that stupid, but it's too late for you to realize it now."
"Because you are about to die, hahaha." Wu Buke opened his arms and laughed to the sky.
"Did you all hear it?" Jiuyi Yun Siming and others came out from somewhere else.
Wu Bu Ke stared at them in surprise, and the team easily untied the ropes in no time.
As they walked towards him, Jianyi's swords, guns, sticks and clubs were turned towards Wubu Ke.
This was a joint play they had put on in order to expose his conspiracy.
In fact, Ji Jinyan had already had suspicions, but the difficulty was making him reveal his true identity.
Jianyi was provoked by him and could not see the truth. Without their support, it would be difficult to succeed.
After some discussion, they decided that Yihua Island and Chimo Sect would deal with the other landlords.
Jianyi was handed over to the team when Xiaobai was injured and Xuanren was surrounded.
"We came here out of necessity, not to disturb the peace here. There are others who want to destroy the continent.
I know you won't listen to anything right now, but we have a way to prove it." Fioni tried to dissuade him.
"Outlanders are cunning. Don't listen to them, or you'll fall into their trap."
"Yeah, don't listen to him."
He approached with his weapon in hand, "Damn, these natives have such deep-rooted xenophobia that it's impossible to communicate."
Several people were helpless and at a loss as to what to do. "Why not just beat them into submission?"
"That's the only way." The team stood back to back in attack and defense.
A little boy suddenly ran over and stood in front of them.
"Don't hurt them, the brothers and sisters are good people."
"Come here, kid! These damn outsiders are going to destroy our home," an adult advised.
The little boy cried out, "No, my brothers gave us plenty of food and helped bury my sister. They are very kind to us. They don't mean to hurt us."
Xuan Ren finally had some impression of the little boy. They weren't heartless and used to seeing people suffer. It was indeed too hard here. With compassion, they had rescued a group of children.
I naturally didn't take such a small matter seriously, but I didn't expect these kids still remembered it.
"Xiaobo." A woman rushed over and hugged him, afraid that these cheap guys would hurt him.
There was a moment of silence as Jianyi pondered a countermeasure. Gao spoke up, "We'll know whether what we said is true or not soon. With so many of you, a little time won't hurt."
Seeing that Jianyi was somewhat convinced, the team nodded to each other, threw their weapons on the ground, and allowed Jianyi to tie them up.
"What's the use of knowing it? If you continue to struggle before dying, it will only make your death too ugly." Wu Bu Ke didn't care at all.
The assassins he summoned were all fed by him with medicine and had extraordinary combat power.
"Crush these ants to death." The assassins attacked quickly one by one.
The lords brought their men to stand in front of Jianyi and fight with the assassins, but Wu Buke's confident look on his face remained unchanged.
Others also joined the battle, and more and more red was visible, making it difficult to tell whose it belonged.
"Ah..." The nobles of the lowly clothing united as one. This mattered to everyone's life. They would not leave it to others, but everyone had to fight for themselves.
Everyone became more and more courageous as the situation became more and more difficult. Three or four people worked together to subdue one assassin.
Jiu Yi injured a soldier and said to Ji Jinyan and Xuan Ren, "We are here, go and deal with Wu Bu Ke and stop him."
"Okay." Several people dealt with the assassins in their hands and continued to approach Wu Bu Ke.
The assassins protected him, and several people fought with them.
The movement was too rough, and Xiaobai's wound started bleeding and burst open again. CC and Xiaobai swapped positions, "Are you okay?"
Xiaobai was a little bit tired, "It's okay, I can hold on."
The assassins launched another round of attack, meeting the enemy head-on with hanging blades.
"These tireless guys are really tough to deal with. We are not like Ji Jinyan who has endless physical strength." Fioni said as he glanced at him who was still fighting hard.
At this moment, Ji Jinyan was surprisingly calm. Strength surged from his body. He wanted to defend this place. When Ye Lin woke up, she wanted to see them and this place.
If this continued, they would only be exhausted. Tacitly, they understood each other at this moment, coordinating with the secret code unique to Xuanren.
The hanging blade is like an impenetrable wall. It is impossible to break through and it will occasionally extend its spear to stab you.
When it comes to tacit understanding, they are second to none, and no one in the world dares to claim to be first.
The death squad collapsed under the collective offensive of the squad and was defeated one by one.
Wu Bu Ke became a little anxious until the team dealt with the last one.
"Wu Buke, a ruthless killing machine can never compare to the kindness and loyalty between people. What you developed is worthless and meaningless." Ji Jinyan said coldly.
"Hahaha, no one can stop me. I won't lose." He stared at them gloomily.
Taking out the controller and pressing the button, Ji Jinyan and Xuan Ren immediately rushed forward.
Ji Jinyan snatched the controller and knocked it away with his sword.
Wu Bu Ke covered his abdomen and looked at the container with anticipation and excitement.
There was no response. Could it be that I didn't press the button in my panic?
He calmed himself down and said, "It's useless. Once the program starts, there's no way to stop it. You'll all die."
Ji Jinyan also clearly saw the countdown above and threw away the useless controller.
"Catch him first. There will always be a way to force him to tell you how to terminate the program." Yuan said.
Xiaobai's face turned grim, and the two of them took a few steps away. Yigo Jonis quickly grasped his arm and said, "Rest first. We have more than enough to handle him."
Xiaobai stopped trying to be stubborn and said, "Well, be careful." He found a place to sit aside.
Ji Jinyan didn't move, knowing Wu Bu Ke wasn't lying. He looked at the people around him, desperately striving for hope and tomorrow. How desperate they would be if they knew that everything they longed for would never come true.
How could he escape this desperate situation? His brain was frantically calculating but he couldn't find a way out.
The passage of time is a death knell for everyone. He now really wants to go back to Ye Lin and see her again.
Wu Bu Ke fell into their hands, and Xuan Ren and others subdued him together, leaving him in a miserable state.
The team members were ready to fight, "We've been looking at you and wanting to beat you up for a long time."
"Let's vent our anger for Y."
Xuan Ren beat Wu Bu Ke up without any scruples.
"You are such a black-hearted person. You are not a human being to your own daughter."
"What's with the virus rocket thing, you old pervert."
"You've made Y suffer so much, and yet you still hate the whole world."
…
The Xuanren Squad were not polite and civilized kids. They scolded Wu Bu Ke and vented their anger.
"Tell me, how did you turn off this damn thing?"
"Tell me or not? I'll beat you up if you don't." Xiaobai said with his fist raised. He was watching the fight, and now he felt much better after being beaten and joined in the fun.
Ji Jinyan looked at the limited time left and saw the look of Xuan Ren, who shared the same hatred for the enemy, and the same tenacity as Ye Lin. She would never give up just like that.
"You bunch of idiots, do you think I will leave you a way out?" Wu Bu Ke's clothes and hair were not as neat as at the beginning and looked a little messy, his eyes still full of disdain.
"He really didn't lie. Just keep an eye on him while I go find the real controller." Ji Jinyan didn't explain much.
Xuan Ren looked at each other, realizing that there was really no way to shut him down, and he was no longer in the mood to beat him.
Time passed by minute by minute, so long and painful.
Xiaobai looked into the distance: Why haven’t you come back yet?
Wu Bu Ke kept his head down and did not move, and took advantage of Xiao Bai's distraction when he turned his head to suddenly attack him.
Xiaobai took a punch from him and quickly dodged. The other members of Xuanren also surrounded him, and at the critical moment, they were about to fight.
Wu Bu Ke sprayed something on the team, but they were hit and fell to the ground, unable to move.
He picked up the knife on the ground and said, "I wanted to save your lives, but you guys insisted on seeking death."
He didn't think Ji Jinyan could block the controller, but in order to avoid any further complications, it would be better for him to kill these people himself.
Xuan Ren could only watch Wu Bu Ke approach step by step, raising the knife in his hand.
"Stop!" a voice shouted.
Hearing this voice, Wu Bu Ke couldn't believe it and turned around.
Ye Lin was wearing a black cloak and needed Mo Ping's support to stand.
Ye Lin looked at him, and there was a hint of guilt and uneasiness in Wu Bu Ke's eyes.
"Mingxi, what are you doing here? You just merged the antidote, go back and rest." He thought that this was the reason why Ye Lin looked weak.
"Stop it, you've gone too far wrong." Ye Lin begged him.
"Mingxi, I know you don't understand me now, but later you will find that everything I do is right, and it's all for us."
Ye Lin's current desperate mood is exactly the same as Cheng Yujialian's back then. She is unable to persuade the people who are important to her to come back.
"This is not what I want. If you really still care about what's between us, don't do that." Ye Lin shook her head, her voice soft and weak.
Wu Bu Ke took a deep breath and said, "It's too late. The time is up."
He closed his eyes and imagined the scene of misery everywhere in this place.
"Three, two, one!"
——
He frowned; the loud noise he was expecting did not come.
He opened his eyes and looked at the unresponsive launcher in surprise.
The shot in the secret room did miss, but Wu Bu Ke did successfully press the button for the first time.
The moment Mo Ping cut the cable, the beam of photosensitive particles was also transmitted in, giving Ye Lin a second chance.
She reacted quickly and accurately dispersed the high-speed photons before others could even blink.
"It's not too late."
"Father." Ye Lin said softly.
Father… These two words were like someone finally looking into his heart and touching him gently.
For so long, he had never heard Ye Lin call him father.
All his defenses completely collapsed and tears filled his eyes.
"Father, I know you're in pain after losing Mom, and I know you've secretly done so much for me. You'd make my favorite soup, sit outside my room waiting for me to come home, and worry about my every emotion, afraid you'd done something wrong to displease me.
You must be sincere in wanting to give up everything and live with me. I can feel your care and love.
In my heart, you have long been my father."
Wu Bu Ke's eyes were filled with tears. "Mingxi, my daughter."
Ye Lin's eyes were wet with tears. "Father, I really don't want to see you become like this."
Wu Bu Ke turned his head away, struggling and hesitating internally.
Ye Lin pushed Mo Ping away and pulled out a gun, pointing it at her head.
Mo Ping was pushed out, and Wu Buke felt panicked.
"Xier, what are you going to do?" Mingxi looked at him with a smile.
"Father, stop." She pulled the trigger, and brain tissue splattered with blood.
She fell heavily to the ground, "Linlin!"
Ji Jinyan also guessed that the control device was still in Shadow City and hurried over. A man in a black cloak stumbled and fell to the ground.
He passed her and ran forward.
Mo Ping rushed over from the side down the slope and helped Ye Lin up.
When Ji Jinyan found the secret room, he discovered that the device had been destroyed. He was overjoyed, "It's Linlin!"
He rushed back immediately and saw her lying in a pool of blood.
Ji Jinyan held her in his arms, his hands stained with her blood which was still not cold.
Xuan Ren could only watch, unable to speak or move. Everyone's look was sad, with tears in their eyes.
Bai Zeyan, Xia Zaoan and others successfully restrained those assassins. When they arrived, they saw Ji Jinyan holding Ye Lin, whose life was hanging by a thread.
