Chapter 105 The Hidden Contradictions of Internal Division

The alarms in the laboratory gradually subsided, but the unease they caused did not dissipate.

Su Wanqing stood in the temporary command room, looking at the silent team members in front of her, her heart heavy.

The decision to retreat was correct, but the hasty and fruitless trial made her realize that the risks of this operation far exceeded expectations.

“Ye’s actions are becoming increasingly dangerous, I can sense it,” Lin Che suddenly said, his voice trembling slightly.

"He seems to always be using us, pushing us into an unknown abyss."

Su Wanqing looked at Lin Che, whose face was pale and whose eyes were evasive, as if he was in great pain.

The torment that the night's intrusion inflicted on Lin Che was unimaginable. She felt pity for him, yet she had to be on guard.

"Che, I know you're in a lot of pain," Su Wanqing said, trying to sound calm.

"But this is not the time to discuss these things. We need to focus on analyzing the lab's defense systems and finding a breakthrough."

"But..." Lin Che wanted to say something, but Su Wanqing interrupted him.

“No buts. What we need now is unity, not mutual suspicion.” Su Wanqing’s tone became serious.

Just then, Xiao Ran walked up to Su Wanqing and said in a low voice, "Su Wanqing, to be honest, I think we should completely cut off contact with Ye. This guy is too dangerous, and we have no idea what his true purpose is."

Su Wanqing shook her head and said, "Not now. The information Ye provided is crucial to us. Although we can't completely trust him, we still need his help for the time being. We must obtain virus data from the lab first before we can formulate an effective response strategy."

“You’re too soft-hearted,” Xiao Ran said, dissatisfied. “Ye is toying with us. Are we just going to stand by and let him use us?”

“I know you’re worried,” Su Wanqing explained. “But right now, we can’t easily give up any chance of winning. The current situation doesn’t allow us to act rashly.”

Lu Zhao walked to the control panel and his fingers flew across the keyboard.

"I'm trying to design a program that can block Ye's interference with Lin Che. If it succeeds, it might stop him from continuing to control Lin Che."

"Can it succeed?" Su Wanqing asked.

Lu Zhao shook his head. "I can't guarantee it. Ye's technical skills are extremely high, and his hacking methods are very covert. I can only try and see if I can find any vulnerabilities."

"Just do your best," Su Wanqing said.

"Are you talking about me?" A cold voice suddenly rang out from the communicator, breaking the silence in the room.

That night.

Su Wanqing's heart skipped a beat; she knew Ye had been eavesdropping on their communications.

“We are discussing the action plan,” Su Wanqing replied, trying to keep her voice calm.

“Hmm, a very conservative plan,” Night’s voice carried a hint of sarcasm.

"It seems you have lost your ambition and only want to die slowly in despair."

Hearing Ye's mockery, Xiao Ran was instantly enraged. "Shut up! We are working hard for the survival of all mankind. What right do you have to point fingers here?"

"For the survival of all mankind?" Ye sneered. "Your efforts are in vain; the virus is unstoppable. Your so-called hope is nothing but self-deception."

Lin Che clutched his head, groaning in pain. The sound of the night was like a sharp knife, piercing his brain.

"Che, are you alright?" Su Wanqing asked with concern.

Lin Che did not answer, but shook his head painfully.

The voice of the night rang out again: "Stop wasting time, Su Wanqing. Your strategy of playing it safe will only make the situation worse. You must act decisively and seize every opportunity. Otherwise, it will be too late."

"What exactly do you want?" Su Wanqing asked.

“I’m just reminding you that opportunities are fleeting,” Night said. “Your fate is in your own hands. Will you choose to continue sinking into despair, or will you seize this last hope?”

Su Wanqing took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down. "We have our own plans, we don't need your guidance."

"Suit yourself," Night said coldly. "You'll all regret it in the end anyway."

A burst of static came through the communicator, and the sounds of night disappeared.

Su Wanqing turned off the communicator, her face pale. The arrival of night further exacerbated the internal conflicts within the team.

To calm the team members down, she made a decision immediately. "For now, let's put aside our internal differences and focus our efforts on achieving a unified goal."

We need to develop a detailed operational plan to ensure the smooth execution of the operation.

Lu Zhao, you're in charge of the technical preparations; Xiao Ran, you're in charge of fire support; Che, you…”

Su Wanqing looked at Lin Che and noticed that his face had become even paler.

His eyes were empty, as if he had lost his soul.

“Che, you need to rest now,” Su Wanqing said. “Don’t push yourself.”

"Mm." Lin Che nodded, silently walked to the corner, and curled up into a ball.

A man in a black uniform walked in, carrying several tablets.

This man's name is Zhou Licheng, and he was a defector who had cooperated with them some time ago.

“Su Wanqing, I have brought the latest intelligence,” Zhou Licheng said.

"The underground entrance to the laboratory seems to have a secret passage that leads directly to the laboratory's energy core."

"An energy core?" Su Wanqing raised an eyebrow. "What's so special about it?"

“The laboratory’s backup power source is stored there. If it is destroyed, the entire laboratory will be paralyzed,” Zhou Licheng explained.

"Moreover, there may be some important secrets hidden there."

“Very good,” Su Wanqing said. “We will use this passage to enter the laboratory and obtain virus data.”

“But…” Zhou Licheng hesitated for a moment. “The security in this passage is very tight, and there may be enemy traps lying in ambush there.”

“We’re used to danger,” Su Wanqing said. “As long as we’re well-prepared, we’ll definitely be able to overcome any difficulties.”

Zhou Licheng nodded and handed the tablet to Su Wanqing. "This is a map of the passage and security information. You can study it carefully."

Su Wanqing took the tablet and carefully looked at the contents.

The security system in this passage is indeed very complex and requires careful handling.

"Lu Zhao, do you think you can crack the security system of this passage?" Su Wanqing asked.

Lu Zhao took the tablet and began analyzing it. "I'll give it a try, but time might be a bit tight."

"Be careful," Su Wanqing said.

The voice of the night echoed in Lin Che's mind once more. "A foolish plan, a futile struggle. You are like a flock of lost lambs, searching for light in the darkness, yet never finding your way."

Lin Che gritted his teeth, struggling to suppress the night's control. He knew that if he yielded to the night's will, it would bring disastrous consequences.

"Su Wanqing, your trust will ultimately lead to destruction. I will show you what true despair is." Ye's voice was full of mockery and threat.

Lin Che's body trembled violently, and he felt his consciousness gradually fading away.
