When the live stream ended, everyone in the special zone of the PO executor headquarters was forcibly returned to their rooms.
The usually obedient crowd was so captivated by the live stream that they lingered, especially those who saw their family or friends in the game, who became even more anxious.
"We want to watch the live stream, that's our right. You promised us before, we're being protected, not imprisoned!"
"I've participated in the combat system, and there are so many monsters, it's completely unreasonable. Is there something wrong with the system?"
"We need to know the truth! My brother is inside, I need to know what really happened!"
...
They had always had a good relationship with the enforcers who were looking after them, but they never expected to receive such a cold and authoritative command this time.
"Everyone return to your residences and await orders. Violators will be punished in accordance with the laws of the Allied Nations!"
The enforcers were also bitter. What was supposed to be a good thing had turned out to be a disaster. What was even worse was that they had received information that the PO enforcer headquarters might have leaked information. They had no patience left and forcibly pushed several of the most vocal protesters into their room.
However, their actions completely ignited the anger of those who had been under house arrest there during this period.
"We want to see the Consul General. We have the right to know the truth!"
Once the first person resisted, a second would follow, and gradually, the entire special zone descended into chaos. Unfortunately, there were only a little over a hundred people there, which was utterly futile compared to the fully armed enforcers.
Li Rui did not participate in the chaos, although she was more worried than anyone else. The combat system had been running for more than two eras and was almost impossible to hack. Moreover, she believed that since Lu Yuan had already planned it, it was even less likely that the combat system would malfunction.
But in fact, the combat system is indeed malfunctioning now. Who did it? Li Rui's first instinct was Qian Dahai, but he quickly dismissed the idea. If Qian Dahai had such a powerful hacker team, he wouldn't have waited until now to make his move. Moreover, given how long V had been infiltrating the system, it's impossible that V didn't give any warning at all.
Could it be that besides Qian Dahai, they have an even more dangerous third-party enemy lurking in the shadows? Most importantly, will Lu Yuan save her? Li Rui knew that once the combat system module was activated, no one outside could enter. Even if the connection was broken, they would only suffer brain death. Fortunately, Li Rui had studied the relevant knowledge for a long time before coming to RSM, and she realized the existence of the administrator system pod faster than Team Leader Zhang.
Li Rui immediately tried to contact V, but found that there was no response at all. She felt something was strange, but she knew that she had to send the message out as soon as possible. However, just as she was about to walk to the nearest executor and ask him to contact Lu Yuan, she noticed that the executor was listening intently to something through his earpiece, and then glanced at her.
Li Rui immediately sensed the danger. She subconsciously turned her head and bumped into a researcher from Lab 09. He grabbed Li Rui's wrist, his face pale, and said urgently, "Sister Li, something bad has happened! I just overheard them on their communicator saying they found a chip. Could V be exposed?"
V has definitely been exposed!
Seeing the increasingly strange looks on the faces of the executors around her, Li Rui quickly said, "Go to the rendezvous point and figure out a way to leave first."
At this moment, the executors received orders from above to approach Li Rui and the others. However, because there were so many people in the hall, their actions provoked resistance from those who were already under house arrest and were on edge. For some reason, one of the executors forcibly pushed down a female B-level gene user, whose arm was cut and bleeding profusely.
In the crowd, someone shouted, "The enforcers have injured someone!" igniting the final fuse.
Many A-level gene users, relying on their physical abilities, charged at the fully armed enforcers. They were originally prominent figures outside, but after being under house arrest for so long, they were filled with resentment. Many more were shouting, "We want to get out! We want to know the truth!"
Once the first person rose up in rebellion, a second followed, and the entire hall immediately descended into chaos.
This chaos helped Li Rui, who quickly found researchers from several other laboratories and told them to go to the meeting point, and finally stopped Hong Feng.
Hongfeng and Chen Zhe left the treatment area shortly after Xia Yixin left last time, and now Hongfeng has fully recovered.
"Hongfeng, come with me, we need to get to the rendezvous point right away and leave! V might have been exposed." As she spoke, she pulled Hongfeng and ran towards the deserted corridor, where a large number of executors were blocked by the chaotic crowd.
But after running for a short while, Hongfeng suddenly broke free from her hand and said urgently, "No, I have to go find Chen Zhe, you go first!"
"Hongfeng!" Before Li Rui could refuse, Hongfeng had already run quickly to the other side of the corridor.
At this point, the executor had already fired his gun.
Peng!
The gunshots would surely deter the resisting captors. Li Rui knew there was no time to lose, so she rushed into the elevator. Her bracelet had been implanted with other identity tokens by V, but thankfully it was still working.
The elevator descended rapidly, reaching the basement level in less than three seconds. This was an escape route they had rehearsed countless times in their minds. The speed at which the cameras rotated and the frequency with which the executors passed through were all precise. However, Li Rui dared not let her guard down. Her biggest worry was whether V had been completely exposed. If Lu Yuan found out about V's affairs, even though V's previous actions had not harmed Lu Yuan's interests, would the leader of an allied nation still trust him if he knew that all his influence had been infiltrated by others?
