Chapter Eight: Unexpected Allies
In front of the Time-Space Gate, Li Wenbo, Li Tianyou, and Zhao Min stood ready. The alarm echoed in the basement as Dr. Zhang's men quickly approached.
"They're coming," Zhao Min said, her gaze fixed on the surveillance screen, her expression serious.
"We can't let them get close to the gate," Li Wenbo said, gripping his pocket watch tightly, determination shining in his eyes.
Li Tianyou drew his sword, standing at the forefront, prepared for battle. Zhao Min swiftly operated the console, trying to activate more defensive mechanisms.
"We're not alone in this fight," Li Wenbo murmured, glancing over his companions.
At that moment, a figure emerged from the shadows—it was the museum's Director, holding an ancient scroll.
"This contains the method to control the gate," the Director said solemnly, handing the scroll to Li Wenbo.
Li Wenbo unfurled the scroll, which was filled with dense ancient text and symbols. He and Zhao Min quickly deciphered it and discovered a ritual that could temporarily seal the Time-Space Gate.
"We need time to prepare this ritual," Li Wenbo said, urgency evident in his voice.
As they prepared anxiously, trust and understanding gradually built among the three. Li Tianyou expressed respect for Li Wenbo and Zhao Min's modern knowledge and technology.
"Your wisdom is on par with any scholar from my time," Li Tianyou said earnestly.
Zhao Min smiled slightly. "Every era has its wonders; we are merely standing on the shoulders of giants."
Under the Director's guidance, the three began preparing for the ritual to seal the Time-Space Gate. They carefully arranged artifacts and drew symbols according to the instructions on the scroll, taking each step with caution.
"This ritual requires a pocket watch as a medium." Li Wenbo placed the pocket watch at the center of the ritual.
Just as the ritual was about to be completed, Dr. Zhang's subordinates finally burst into the basement. A chaotic battle immediately broke out, with Li Tianyou wielding his longsword while Zhao Min used traps to counterattack.
Li Wenbo and the Director were completely focused on the ritual, seemingly oblivious to the fighting around them. As the last symbol was completed, the time-space portal gradually became blurry, eventually disappearing into thin air.
Dr. Zhang's subordinates were stunned by the sudden change, their offensive faltering. Li Wenbo and his companions seized the opportunity to launch a counterattack.
In the midst of the chaos, an unexpected ally appeared—Zhao Min's university classmates, who had heard about her danger and organized themselves to help.
With the new allies' assistance, the situation quickly turned around. Dr. Zhang's subordinates were subdued one by one, and eventually, Dr. Zhang himself appeared on the battlefield.
"You think you can stop me like this?" Dr. Zhang sneered, holding a remote control in his hand, seemingly ready to initiate some ultimate plan.
Chapter Nine: The Moment of Final Battle
In the dimly lit basement of the museum, tension filled the air. Dr. Zhang stood on a platform, the remote control in his hand flashing red light, his eyes revealing madness.
"Everything will come to an end; I will open a new chapter in history." Dr. Zhang's voice echoed in the empty basement.
Li Wenbo and his companions stood shoulder to shoulder with the Director, facing Dr. Zhang with unwavering determination in their eyes.
Li Tianyou suddenly moved like a shadow towards Dr. Zhang, his longsword slicing through the air with a cold gleam. Dr. Zhang's subordinates attempted to block him but were repelled one by one by Li Tianyou.
Zhao Min quickly operated at the control panel, trying to cut off Dr. Zhang's remote signal. Her fingers danced across the keyboard as code poured down the screen like a waterfall.
Suddenly, the location of the Time-Space Gate emitted a dazzling light, as if a force was attempting to reopen it. Li Wenbo tightly gripped his pocket watch, feeling it tremble in his hand.
“He's trying to force open the Time-Space Gate!” Li Wenbo warned loudly, knowing that once the portal was opened, the consequences would be unimaginable.
At a critical moment, Zhao Min discovered a way to stop Dr. Zhang, but it required direct access to the mainboard of the control console. Without hesitation, she dismantled the console, electricity and sparks flickering in her hands.
“Zhao Min, be careful!” both Li Wenbo and Li Tianyou exclaimed simultaneously.
Just then, Dr. Zhang pressed the button on the remote control, and a powerful wave of energy surged towards Zhao Min. She looked up, a glimmer of determination in her eyes, and then she was engulfed by the light.
After the energy wave subsided, the glow of the Time-Space Gate gradually faded, and Zhao Min stood unharmed in place, clutching a smoking circuit board in her hand.
“We did it!” Zhao Min gasped, her face showing a tired but victorious smile.
Dr. Zhang's plan was completely thwarted, and all his subordinates were subdued. As Dr. Zhang looked at everything before him, his manic smile gradually froze and ultimately turned into despair.
Li Wenbo approached Dr. Zhang, his gaze filled with determination and authority. “Time cannot be altered; history cannot be forged.”
Dr. Zhang lowered his head, knowing that his efforts had been in vain. Li Wenbo turned to face Li Tianyou and Zhao Min; they were not only his companions but also warriors guarding history.
“We did it; we are the guardians of history.” Li Wenbo's voice echoed in the basement, filled with strength and hope.
