Her face was pale, her eyes were filled with fear, but also with a hint of determination.

She hesitated for a moment, then spoke slowly: "Captain, I...I have been hiding something from you."

Her voice trembled with a hint of guilt.

Xu An turned his head and looked at Lin Xiao, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes: "What's the matter? Now is not the time to hide it."

There was a hint of anxiety in his eyes, hoping to get some useful information from Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao took a deep breath and mustered up the courage to say, "I heard some rumors on the interstellar black market before."

"It's said that a mysterious force is searching for this relic. They seem to have mastered some secrets about the energy tower, and their methods are extremely cruel. I... I'm worried that it's related to the current situation."

Chapter 492: As if victory is already within reach!!

Her voice became smaller and smaller, and her head gradually lowered.

Xu An's expression became more serious. He pondered for a moment and said, "No matter who comes, we cannot retreat."

"Li He, go guard the door and see what's going on. Lin Xiao, take good care of Kailuo. I'll study the method Kailuo found to control the energy tower. Maybe this is the key to how we deal with this crisis."

He quickly made the "583" deployment, his eyes firm and his command decisive.

Li He nodded, gripped his weapon tightly, and strode towards the door.

His figure appeared particularly resolute under the light of the energy tower, like an unshakable fortress.

Lin Xiao walked to Kailuo, squatted down, and looked at him with concern: "Kailuo, how do you feel?"

Her eyes were filled with worry as she gently took Kylo's hand.

Kailuo shook his head slightly and said weakly: "I'm fine, just a little tired. Be careful..."

His voice gradually became weaker, but his eyes still revealed his concern for his companions.

Xu Baan came to the computer parts scattered on the ground, trying to piece together the usable parts and look for the key information left by Kailuo.

His fingers flipped quickly between the parts, his eyes focused and determined, not missing any details.

At this moment, footsteps from outside the stone chamber had reached the door, and a deep voice rang out: "Listen up, everyone inside! Hand over the energy tower, or you won't be able to leave alive!"

There was a hint of unquestionable arrogance in their voices, as if they had already secured victory.

Xu An raised his head, a look of determination flashing in his eyes: "If you want to take away the energy tower, then it depends on whether you have the ability to do so!"

His voice was firm and powerful, echoing in the stone chamber, as if declaring their determination to the enemy.

With the sound of metal clashing, the enemies outside the stone chamber began to move.

Outside the stone chamber, as soon as the low voice fell, a violent metal collision sound suddenly rang out, as if thousands of troops were galloping.

The heavy stone door began to shake violently, and every vibration was like a heavy hammer hitting everyone's heart, as if it would be broken through at any time.

Xu An's heart suddenly tightened, and he felt like his heart was about to jump out of his throat.

He quickly scanned the stone chamber, his eyes anxiously fixed on Kylo's broken computer on the floor. He silently prayed that he could find a solution among the pile of parts. Beads of sweat already covered his forehead...

Li He gripped the weapon tightly with both hands, his knuckles turned white from the force, and his muscles were tense all over his body, like a cheetah ready to pounce.

He stared at the crumbling door, beads of sweat rolling down his forehead, his breathing became rapid, and his chest heaved violently.

"Captain, these guys are coming in aggressively and look difficult to deal with." He lowered his voice, a hint of nervousness in his eyes, and licked his dry lips from time to time while speaking.

Xu An did not respond. He was concentrating on piecing together computer parts, his brows furrowed in the shape of a deep "chuan" character.

His eyes were full of anxiety 4.0 and concentration, as if the whole world only consisted of him and this pile of parts.

"Give me some more time, I must find a way to control the energy tower." He muttered to himself, his voice almost inaudible.

Lin Xiao stayed beside Kailuo, her hand gently on Kailuo's wrist, feeling his weak pulse.

Her eyes were full of worry, and her eye sockets were slightly red.

Chapter 493 Dealing with the Traitor

 "Kylo, ​​please get better soon. Everyone needs you." She whispered softly, with a hint of sob in her voice, as if she was begging for something.

Kylo's eyelids trembled slightly, as if he was trying to break free from the darkness.

He tried hard to open his eyes, looked at the anxious Xu An, and said in an extremely weak voice: "Captain... the data... is in the storage chip."

After saying that, he closed his eyes tiredly, as if he had used up all his strength.

Xu An's heart was shaken, as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw.

He quickly searched for the storage chip in part 14, his movements so hasty and frantic that he almost knocked over the parts next to him.

He stuffed the chip into the spare device he carried with him, his hands shaking slightly.

The screen lit up and dense data began to scroll. Xu An stared at the screen, as if he wanted to see through all the data.

His fingers tapped rapidly on the operating table, making a rapid sound.

At this moment, the stone door was knocked open with a bang, and a strong airflow rushed into the stone chamber, raising a cloud of dust.

A group of people in black armor rushed into the stone chamber. They walked in step and exuded a cold aura.

The leader was a tall man with a silver mask on his face, revealing only a pair of cold eyes, like the abyss in the cold night, emitting a captivating cold light.

"Hand over the control of the energy tower, otherwise you will all die today!" The man's voice was cold and oppressive, like a sharp knife, echoing throughout the stone chamber, making everyone's ears buzz.

Li He stepped forward and pointed his weapon at the man, his arms shaking slightly with anger and tension.

He shouted loudly: "Don't even think about it! You bastards, if you have the guts, just step over our dead bodies!"

His voice was firm, with an air of fearlessness, and the veins on his neck were bulging.

Xu An still didn't look up. He was immersed in the ocean of data, as if isolated from the outside world.

His eyes were fixed on the screen, trying to find a way to crack the problem at this critical moment, and he kept mumbling some data and instructions.

"Found it!" Xu An suddenly shouted, his voice full of surprise and excitement, as if he had found light in the darkness.

He quickly operated the equipment, and the runes on the energy tower began to flash according to his instructions, emitting a strange light.

However, at the critical moment when the energy tower was about to be controlled, the leading man suddenly took out a strange device from his waist. The device had a strange shape and emitted a strange light.

He fired a black beam at the energy tower, his movements swift and decisive.

The light beam hit the energy tower, and the flashing of the runes instantly became chaotic. The entire energy tower trembled violently, like a wounded giant that could fall down at any time.

"No!" Xu An roared angrily, his face flushed red with anger.

He increased his force on the device again, tapping his fingers frantically on the screen, trying to regain control of the energy tower.

At this moment, Kylo, ​​who had been unconscious, suddenly found strength from nowhere, and his eyes revealed determination and resoluteness.

He struggled to stand up and walked towards Xu An, staggering like a drunk man.

"Captain, I'm here to help you." His voice was weak but full of determination, and every word he spoke seemed to be filled with all his strength.

Chapter 494: We can’t let these guys succeed!!!

Seeing this, Lin Xiao hurried forward to support Kai Luo, holding his arms tightly with both hands.

"You're trying to kill yourself! Lie down!" she said anxiously, her voice changing tone and her eyes full of worry and heartache.

Kylo shook his head and looked at the energy tower with a firm gaze. "Now is not the time to worry about this. This energy tower concerns the life and death of all of us."

Although his voice was weak, it revealed an unquestionable power.

With Kylo's assistance, Xu An's control over the energy tower gradually stabilized.

But the enemy obviously would not sit still and wait for death, they began to attack Xu An and others frantically.

Energy beams shot towards them, and the air was filled with a pungent energy smell.

Li He stood alone in front of Xu An and Kailuo, and the weapon in his hand burst out with powerful energy, forming a defensive barrier.

He repelled the enemy's attacks time and time again, and his armor was damaged in many places, revealing the scratched skin underneath.

But the number of enemies was too large, and Li He gradually felt overwhelmed. He was injured in many places, and blood oozed from the wounds, staining his clothes red.

"Li He, hold on!" Xu An shouted. He and Kailuo increased the speed of controlling the energy tower. Beads of sweat on their foreheads kept rolling down and dripping onto the operating table.

Just when Li He was about to collapse, Xu An finally succeeded in controlling the energy tower.

The energy tower emitted a powerful energy wave, like a surging wave, which blew all the enemies away.

The enemy rolled on the ground and was unable to get up for a while.

But the enemy did not give up. They regrouped with fierce glint in their eyes.

They quickly adjusted their status and prepared to launch a more violent attack.

Xu An and the others also understood that this was only a temporary respite, and a greater crisis was yet to come. They had to come up with a response plan as soon as possible. A more intense battle seemed inevitable...

Just when everyone was on the verge of a fight, a slight noise suddenly came from the corner of the stone chamber.

Everyone's eyes were instantly focused on the scene, and a thin figure slowly walked out from the shadows.

He is Xiao Wu, who is in charge of logistics at the base. He is usually taciturn and inconspicuous.

At this moment, there was a hint of nervousness and hesitation on his face, but there was determination in his eyes.

"Captain," Xiao Wu's voice trembled a little as he stepped forward cautiously. "I... I might know something about them."

Xu An and Li He looked at each other, their eyes full of confusion.

"Xiao Wu? What do you know? Tell me quickly!" Xu An asked anxiously, his eyes full of anticipation.

Xiao Wu took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

"I accidentally saw some encrypted messages in the base's communication records before, which were related to these people."

"They seem to be from an organization called the Shadow Alliance. This organization has been secretly searching for powerful energy sources, and their methods are extremely cruel. Moreover, they seem to be colluding with some mysterious forces in the interstellar space."

Hearing this (Li Qianhao) news, everyone's faces became more solemn.

Xu An pondered for a moment and said, "No matter what forces are behind them, we cannot retreat."

"We now have control of the energy tower, which is our greatest strength. But we must quickly find a way to completely eliminate them and not allow them another chance to destroy it."

Li He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said through gritted teeth, "Captain, I can still fight! We must not let these guys succeed!"

Chapter 495: Fighting against evil forces

His eyes burned with fighting spirit, and although his body was covered in wounds, his momentum was undiminished.

Kailuo leaned on Lin Xiao and said weakly, "I will recover as soon as possible and help everyone find a solution. This energy tower still has many secrets, and perhaps one of them holds the key to defeating them."

Xu An nodded and looked at everyone with a firm gaze.

"Okay, let's work together! Li He, continue to pay attention to the enemy's movements; Lin Xiao, take good care of Kai Luo; Xiao Wu, think carefully about whether there is any other useful information; Kai Luo and I will study the energy tower together."

Just as everyone was preparing to act, a low roar suddenly came from outside the stone chamber, as if some huge machine was approaching.

A smug smile appeared on the enemy's face, and the leading man said coldly, "You think you can stop us like this? How naive! The real fun has just begun."

The low roar outside the stone chamber grew closer and closer, like a dull war drum, hammering heavily on the hearts of Xu An and the others, making their nerves even more tense.

The enemy regrouped, and the leading man had a strange smile on his face, which seemed to hide endless conspiracy, as if he was sure of victory.

At this moment, the crowd automatically parted, and a tall figure slowly walked over. It was the Imperial Commander Elena Voss.

She was dressed in gorgeous armor, and the armor gleamed with a cold metallic luster under the light of the energy tower, and every line of it showed her majesty and coldness.

There was coldness and arrogance in her eyes, as if she didn't care about anything in the world. Every step she took was steady and powerful, as if she was declaring her dominance.

"Xu An, you didn't expect that we would meet again." Elena Voss's voice was crisp but chilling, like the cold wind in the cold night, echoing in the stone chamber, making the surrounding air seem to drop several degrees.

Xu An's face instantly darkened. He stared at Elena Voss, his eyes full of vigilance and anger, as if he was looking at an irreconcilable enemy.

"So it's you who's behind this. No wonder these guys always find us." His voice was low, suppressing the rage burning in his heart.

Elena Voss raised the corners of her mouth, revealing a smug smile, with a hint of sarcasm in that smile, as if mocking Xu An's naiveté.

"Hmph, your every move is under my control. I, li*n/g梦$首%发, have already sent undercover agents around you, otherwise how could we have found this place so easily." She raised her head slightly, her eyes full of complacency.

Xu An's heart was shocked, as if he was struck by thunder.

He quickly turned to look at his teammates, his eyes full of scrutiny, trying to find any flaws in their expressions.

"Traitor? Who is it?" His voice was low and cold, as if wrapped in frost, making the team members around him shiver.

Li He stood beside Xu An, holding the weapon tightly in both hands, his knuckles turned white from the force, his eyes burning with anger, like two balls of blazing flames, staring fiercely at Elena Voss.

"You despicable woman, if you have the guts, just confront us head-on. What's the point of these little tricks!" His chest heaved violently and he roared loudly, his voice echoing in the stone chamber.
