Chapter 1824 Only One Step Away
Now the base is full of guards inside and outside. No matter how skilled Huo Yao is, he will be outnumbered.
There is no reason to let go of something that comes to your door automatically.
Shangguan Hou slowly took a step back, waiting for everything to be over.
At this moment, there was a sudden rumbling sound from underground. The sound was so loud, like an earthquake, and even the walls shook for a moment.
Everyone was stunned by the explosion and stood there, not even paying attention to Huo Yao for a moment.
"What happened?" Shangguan Hou frowned.
"This sound seems to be coming from the mountain gate outside." The security chief said quickly while pressing the headset to ask others what the noise was.
However, there was no response from the headset for a long time.
Yes The signal connection is disconnected.
The head of the security force raised his eyes and was about to speak when the lights above his head suddenly went out.
The passage suddenly became dark.
Apart from relying on one's own perception, one cannot see the people around him at all.
The security chief and Shangguan Hou's faces changed. This situation suddenly happened at the critical moment, which was obviously not a coincidence.
The two of them reacted and looked towards the place where Huo Yao had just stood.
Although he couldn't see the people clearly, the guards who were closest to Huo Yao fell to the ground one after another.
When Shangguan Hou noticed this, his first reaction was to retreat quickly.
He was no match for Huo Yao, and if he went against her, he would be the only one who would suffer.
Huo Yao stared coldly at Shangguan Hou, raised his hand, shot out a silver needle with absolute power, then turned around and ran in the opposite direction.
She was very familiar with the defense equipment here. Within three minutes, the power and signal would be restored.
If we don't leave now, it will take a lot of time to get away later.
Besides, the half hour given by someone is about to expire.
Huo Yao had a blank expression on her face. It turned out that having a boyfriend would only affect her efficiency.
A minute later, there was a beep and the lights in the passage came back on.
In the entire corridor, except for the security chief, who was the only one standing, all his men were lying on the ground, their faces were dark purple, and they were all out of breath.
Because he was quite far away from Huo Yao, he managed to escape the disaster by luck.
The head of the security forces was sweating profusely on his forehead. He quickly adjusted the headset again and found that it was connected again. He quickly ordered people to activate the base defense and lock the gate.
After he finished explaining, he noticed Shangguan Hou leaning against the wall not far away, and hurried over, "Mr. Shangguan, are you okay?"
There was a silver needle inserted in Shangguan Hou's back, and most of the needle was embedded in his body. Except for his face, which did not change, his neck and the skin exposed outside his clothes gradually turned purple.
Obviously, he was poisoned.
The head of the security force was shocked when he saw this, and he didn't dare to reach out to help him, "Poison, you are also poisoned."
Blood was already oozing from the corners of Shangguan Hou's lips. With trembling hands, he took out a bottle from his pocket and poured out a black pill. After swallowing it, his breathing became slightly better.
But the piercing pain in my internal organs still exists.
Shangguan Hou wiped the blood from the corner of his lips, then slowly pulled out the silver needle from his shoulder.
Looking at the silver needle, his fingers tightened and his eyes were sinister.
It’s only one step away!
And at this moment, another loud explosion sounded, even more violent than the previous one.
The head of the security force listened to the sound and thought of something. His expression changed again, "Someone is blowing up the mountain gate."
The mountain gate is an ancient mechanism. Once it is blown up, they will be trapped here and die.
