Chen Yao's eyes lit up: "If this is true, then the information he provided before is more credible! Besides, he is in danger now!"
Mou Xuan nodded, his eyes becoming sharper. "The enemy kidnapped him, either to silence him or to get more information about our alliance from him. Either way, we must find him as soon as possible."
He carefully studied the symbols and locations on the paper, combined with the information previously provided by the traitor, and quickly constructed a possible tracking route in his mind.
"These symbols point to the old industrial area in the north of the city, where the terrain is complex and easy to hide. The enemy is likely to have brought the traitor Yu there."
"Let's go!" Mou Xuan made a prompt decision and led the team to quickly evacuate the abandoned factory and head towards the new target.
Vehicles shuttled through the ruins, and the further north they went in the city, the more desolate and dilapidated the environment became.
There was an unsettling quietness in the air.
"Something's happening!" The motorcycle scout in the front suddenly sounded the alarm.
Before he finished speaking, several dark figures jumped out from the shadows of the abandoned buildings on both sides like ghosts, and the energy weapons in their hands burst out with faint blue beams and rushed straight towards the convoy!
"Enemy attack! Prepare for battle!" Mou Xuan shouted sternly.
Chen Yao reacted extremely quickly, and the pulse rifle in her hand fired instantly, accurately hitting the shoulder of a sneak attacker.
The other team members also quickly launched a counterattack.
However, these attackers were agile and coordinated well, and were obviously well-trained.
Their weapons are also extremely advanced, and the power of their energy beams should not be underestimated.
"Cover! Pay attention to their firepower points!" Mou Xuan gave orders while calmly observing the battlefield.
The enemy was not numerous, but they occupied an advantageous terrain, making it somewhat difficult to break through for a while.
Seeing that an enemy was about to go around the side and rear of the convoy to form a pincer attack, Mou Xuan's eyes focused.
“Buzz——”
An invisible wave spread out with him as the center.
In an instant, those shooting energy beams seemed to be stuck in a quagmire, their speed suddenly slowed down, and the attacker's movements became like slow-motion replays.
Time power, activated!
Seizing this critical opportunity, Mou Xuan rushed out of the shelter like a flash of lightning.
The special alloy sword in his hand cut through the air, making a sharp sound of breaking wind.
“Puff! Puff! Puff!”
The knife flashed, and several enemies in the time lag state were hit accurately on their weapons or joints before they could even see what was happening, and instantly lost their combat effectiveness.
The rest of the team members also took this opportunity to launch a fierce counterattack.
Almost in the blink of an eye, the first wave of sneak attacks was broken up.
"Clear the battlefield and stay alert!" Mou Xuan retracted his supernatural power, and beads of sweat oozed from his forehead.
Although the time ability is powerful, it also consumes a lot of energy.
The team quickly dealt with the aftermath and found that the attackers were all wearing uniform black combat uniforms without any identification markings, and their weapons were also of a standard type that they had never seen before.
"It seems we have found the right direction." Chen Yao looked at these silent captives with a serious tone.
Mou Xuan didn't say much, just signaled the team to move on.
He knew that the closer he got to the truth, the more intense the resistance he would encounter.
On the rest of the journey, they encountered two more similar ambushes.
The enemy was like a leech, constantly trying to stop their progress.
But thanks to Mou Xuan's powerful time ability and the excellent cooperation of his team members, these attacks were resolved without any danger.
At dusk, the afterglow of the setting sun dyed the sky a tragic blood red.
The convoy finally approached the last suspicious location marked on the piece of paper - the entrance to an abandoned underground bunker.
The entrance is hidden in the ruins of a collapsed building and is extremely difficult to find unless you look for it carefully.
"Everyone, be alert!" Mou Xuan made a gesture, and the team members immediately dispersed, formed a battle formation, and carefully moved towards the entrance.
Just as they were about to step into the dark ruins to search for the traces of the traitor and the mysterious force, the communicator on Mou Xuan's wrist suddenly issued a sharp and rapid alarm!
"Beep! Beep! Beep! Emergency alarm! Emergency alarm!"
This is the highest level communication from the Alliance Base!
Mou Xuan's heart sank suddenly and he quickly answered the call.
The anxious voice of the adjutant who stayed behind at the base came from the communicator: "Leader! The base... the base has been attacked by a large-scale unknown energy monster! Requesting emergency support! Requesting emergency support!"
Unknown energy monster? Massive attack?
Mou Xuan's pupils suddenly contracted, and an ominous premonition came to his mind.
The clues to the traitor are within reach, but the safety of the base is in danger at this moment!
He raised his head suddenly and looked in the direction of the alliance base. There, he seemed to be able to vaguely see ominous energy fluctuations rolling in the sky.
