The piercing alarm continued to echo in Lin Yuan's ears, sounding like a hundred ducks holding a concert in his mind. He couldn't help but wonder if the designer of this alarm had a personal vendetta against him, deliberately crafting such an unpleasant sound to torment him. Wasn't this supposed to be a high-end, sophisticated secret base? With an alarm like this, one might think it was a broken speaker from some local market!
Flashing red lights and hurried footsteps approached rapidly, shaking the ground like a drumbeat. Countless fully armed Guards surged in from all directions; the scene was so intense that one might think it was the apocalypse with zombies closing in. Each of them wore black combat uniforms and held Laser Guns, their expressions blank, resembling an army of robots from a movie, instantly surrounding Lin Yuan and Su Jiu'er with no escape. The dark muzzles of their guns were aimed at them, as if they were about to be turned into Swiss cheese. This wasn't a military parade; it felt more like they were being sent off to their doom!
"Wow, this is quite the show! Are they throwing us a grand welcome party?" Lin Yuan couldn't help but comment, feeling like a monkey on display at the zoo, especially one about to be dissected for research.
Su Jiu'er remained calm. She pulled Lin Yuan behind her and drew a short sword hidden beneath her robe, its cold gleam shining like that of a warrior ready for battle. The blade sparkled under the red light, complementing her stern expression perfectly. "Stop joking around; get ready to fight!" she whispered, her tone serious as if anticipating an impending storm.
Lin Yuan quickly rummaged through his backpack and pulled out two sticks he had picked up from the roadside, gripping them tightly as if they were primitive weapons. He felt like a caveman wielding firewood, starkly contrasting with the high-tech arms surrounding him. "Alright, looks like we're about to experience some real-life CS! Just wish my gear wasn't so shabby..." he said nonchalantly, though inside he felt as tense as a drawn bowstring that could snap at any moment.
The battle was about to erupt.
The Guards launched their attack first, energy beams from their Laser Guns raining down like raindrops. The "whoosh" of the beams sliced through the air past Lin Yuan's ears. Those colorful energy beams could easily be mistaken for a light show at some nightclub. Activating his Guan Qi Abilities, Lin Yuan instantly detected each Guard's Spiritual Energy Fluctuation and movement trajectory as if he had gained x-ray vision, clearly seeing their every move. He skillfully employed Lingqi Flow techniques, moving gracefully between the gaps of energy beams like a slippery eel, evading capture effortlessly. He even had the leisure to swipe a few grenades from the Guards while dodging, slipping them into his pockets while muttering, "Hehe, just borrowing some candy; hope you don't mind!"
"Hey, your aim is terrible! Do you guys practice with laser pointers?" Lin Yuan taunted as he dodged attacks, enjoying himself as if playing hide-and-seek. He even exaggeratedly mimicked silly movements—beating his chest like a gorilla or waddling like a penguin—infuriating the Guards who gritted their teeth in frustration.
Su Jiu'er showcased her prowess as an Ancient Martial Arts practitioner. Agile and fierce, her short sword danced in her hands like a silver lightning bolt slicing through the night sky, creating gusts of wind that knocked down approaching Guards one by one. Each movement was precise and elegant, resembling a breathtaking dance yet filled with lethal intent.
"Hmph, mere tricks!" she scoffed disdainfully, sounding like a martial arts master reprimanding lowly minions. Her figure flickered unpredictably among the Guards like a ghost; each strike was clean and decisive without hesitation.
Lin Yuan and Su Jiu'er worked seamlessly together—one evading attacks and distracting enemies while the other cleared obstacles—like characters in a video game: one dealing damage while the other served as a tank. They moved fluidly between enemies; Lin Yuan was like an agile monkey while Su Jiu'er resembled an elegant cheetah, effortlessly outmaneuvering the Guards.
At that moment, a figure appeared on the surveillance screen—a Mysterious Researcher whose face was obscured by shadows but whose eyes glinted with malice like a venomous snake lurking in the dark. His fingers danced rapidly over the control panel as if orchestrating the entire battle while wearing a sinister smile on his lips.
"This is bad, someone is manipulating this battle! It seems we've become fish in a barrel!" Lin Yuan quickly discerned the situation, his tone laced with caution.
Su Jiu'er also noticed the mysterious figure on the surveillance screen. Her brows furrowed as she thought, "Could it be someone from the Qi Gong Association? What do they want?"
The fight continued, but the odds were increasingly stacked against Lin Yuan and Su Jiu'er. The number of Guards was growing, and their firepower intensified. They felt like trapped mice in a cage, at any moment on the verge of being caught. The walls of the laboratory flickered with data from various instruments, and red alarm lights flashed incessantly, enveloping the entire lab in a tense and oppressive atmosphere.
In that critical moment, Lin Yuan suddenly had an idea. He gathered Lingqi in his hand, forming an energy sphere, and hurled it at the laboratory wall. With a thunderous boom, the wall exploded, creating a large hole as debris and dust flew everywhere like a grand firework display.
"Quick, let's escape through here!" Lin Yuan grabbed Su Jiu'er's hand and ran toward the opening, like two birds soaring to freedom.
The Guards immediately pursued them, but they found themselves blocked at the hole. Lin Yuan had set up a Spiritual Barrier at the entrance, keeping them firmly outside. The barrier shimmered with a soft blue light, resembling an impenetrable wall that held the Guards at bay.
Lin Yuan and Su Jiu'er successfully escaped the laboratory, but they did not let their guard down; they knew this was just the beginning of the battle…
