"..."

A few minutes later, on the test bench on one side of the encrypted room, a virtual door flickered.

"Sizzle... sizzle..."

“This door will only be open for fifteen seconds, so get through as quickly as possible,” the liaison officer said. “Children, go first.”

Just then, a banging sound came from the door of the encryption room—

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Lin Chen looked at the door and saw that the doorway was gradually changing shape, with each punch accompanied by a violent explosion.

That door was a nuclear bunker-grade structure; the fact that it could leave marks on it speaks volumes about the terrifying power behind it.

Ms. J seems to be much better than her son.

"All right!"

With a "click" like a flint being lit, the illusory door popped out of thin air.

Lin Chen opened the door, gesturing for everyone to pass through quickly.

He was the last to pass through the door, and was greeted by the strange smell of the sewer.

“Ugh…disgusting…” Litty frowned.

"Bear with it for a moment," Lin Chen said, looking around. "This way."

He quickly found the manhole cover leading to the ground, and with a wave of his hand, the manhole cover flew off.

"Stay close to me."

After saying that, Lin Chen leaped onto the ground.

The torrential rain roared through the streets. Lin Chen surveyed the surrounding street scene and judged that he was not too far from Gu Te Street. It seemed that the temporary teleportation portal had reached its limit.

Lin Chen turned around and began to pull everyone who was with him out of the sewer one by one.

After the last person reached the ground, Lin Chen looked up at the sky, pondering how to escape.

Suddenly, a searchlight fell on him.

"Step back!"

"Da da da da da!"

A burst of bullets fell from the sky, but Lin Chen suddenly waved his hand, and all the bullets were attracted and deflected by the magnetic force.

It's a helicopter!

He reached out, his eyes fixed intently on the helicopter—

"Zizzizi!"

Intense electrical sparks danced in the cockpit as the helicopter spun in the air, its machine guns sweeping across the surrounding buildings, sending bricks and tiles flying into the air.

"Get inside the house!" Lin Chen shouted.

Everyone rushed towards the building to the side, and just then, another roar came over the rooftops—

The second helicopter!

Lin Chen was too distracted to deal with the second enemy; his first instinct was to retreat and avoid combat.

However, at that moment...

"I'm here to help you!"

"Hey! Litty! Stop!"

Amidst Huihui's terrified screams, Liti transformed into a white blur and soared into the sky, heading towards the second helicopter.

Lin Chen felt his heart skip a beat. He just watched helplessly as the petite girl charged towards the enormous, gray-black creature, and watched as the creature began to fire—

"Clang clang clang clang!"

The machine guns blasted at the girl's body, but almost all of them were deflected by some strange force.

Amid the pilot's screams, Litty walked straight through the helicopter!

"boom!!!!"

"BOOM!!!!"

A violent explosion erupted in the air. Litty flapped her wings and burst through the fireball, then dove to crash into the second helicopter Lin Chen was piloting in mid-air.

"boom!!!"

Lin Chen felt that the water droplet in "The Three-Body Problem" was just like that.

He stared blankly as Litty made a sharp turn, and then a superhero landed—

No, it was Super Bird that landed and flew into his arms!

"Oh my god!"

Lin Chen grabbed the little bird that flew down from the sky. To absorb the force, he spun around Liti three times before finally stabilizing.

"Liti! Why did you rush up there all by yourself!" Lin Chen was still somewhat shaken.

"I'm awesome!" Litty waved her arms. "Look at me, I have an energy shield!"

Energy shield...?

Upon closer inspection, Lin Chen noticed something on Liti's fair arm...

It has a dark blue coating.

Lin Chen: ......?

Damn, you're so inexperienced, what level are you to have something like this?

"Impressive, right! This brand new power that suddenly awakened recently!" Litty exclaimed proudly. "It's just like the shield in the Pinnacle Legend!"

"This..." Lin Chen didn't know what to say for a moment, "Let's go into the building complex first."

In the distance, another roar came, and helicopters flew across the sky, searching for Lin Chen's whereabouts.

Inside the apartment building, Lin Chen casually pried open a door and led everyone inside.

This house looks like it has been abandoned for a long time; I wonder if the owner went there to take refuge or what happened to it.

"You guys take a break," Lin Chen said, walking to the table and spreading out the map.

He roughly searched for the nearest entry point to Waterpud City, but unfortunately, even the nearest one was several kilometers away.

This is really... a difficult situation to handle...

If it were just Lin Chen alone, it wouldn't be a problem, but he's now leading a large group of people who can't fight... Well, Liti does have unexpected fighting power, but Lin Chen doesn't want her to get involved in the battle.

In this situation, how can we get everyone out of here?

As Lin Chen was pondering, strange footsteps came from outside the window.

The sound of those footsteps was familiar.

He walked to the window, pulled back a corner of the curtain, and looked out at the street—

A group of fully armed figures marched in orderly steps onto the street.

Those are "police officers" from the Bureau of Anomalies Investigation, friendly anomaly entities!

No, they're not friendly right now.

Now, they have all come out and are searching for Lin Chen in the streets!

......

Chapter Twelve: Mercury Moonlight (6000 words)

The officers, though not individually strong, were responsible for most of the Investigation Bureau's operations in Yudu.

As one of the foundations of the Rain City, their strength has never come from how powerful each individual is, but from their sheer number.

With the police completely blocking off the ground, there was absolutely no way Lin Chen could break through them on his own.

This obviously made the already troublesome situation even worse.

Just as Lin Chen was thinking this, suddenly, the sound of a window breaking came from the next room.

The sound was very faint, but Lin Chen became alert almost immediately.

"Brother, what's wrong?" Huihui tugged at Lin Chen's sleeve.

“They’ve found us,” Lin Chen said softly. “They’re not using direct firepower to overwhelm us, but rather using precise force to capture us.”

"This technique is standard practice in the Rapid Response Division."

Lin Chen was naturally most familiar with his own moves.

Clearly, the investigators from the Rapid Response Division used a subspace lens to pinpoint Lin Chen's location, then used ropes to break in and prepare to capture him.

Ha, that's quite polite.

"Stay here, I'll handle this," Lin Chen said softly. "I've got an idea."

“Brother Lin Chen, let me help you!” Liti volunteered.

Lin Chen squatted down and placed his hands on Liti's shoulders:

"No, Litty will stay here and protect everyone. Since you're so capable, I believe in you, okay?"

"it is good!"

Birds are so easy to coax.

Lin Chen stood up, casually took the super alloy axe from his waist, and walked to the door.

He looked out through the peephole and saw that the lights in the corridor had suddenly gone out, and the entire residential building was instantly plunged into darkness.

"..."

"Power cut off, Rapid Response Team A-1, it's getting dark."

"drop--"

Wang Pan pulled down his night vision goggles, and his vision turned green, revealing every detail in the darkness clearly.

Just now, on the helicopter, he confirmed the location of Lin Chen and his group through the subspace lens—room 812 on the 8th floor.

He made a quick decision to lower the rope to the eighth floor and make the arrest directly.

"Note that the target possesses physical attributes equivalent to a gamma-level demigod," Wang Pan said softly. "Don't hold back your firepower."

"receive."

"Li Zi, you be the vanguard; Wang Hu, bring up the rear."

"receive."

The six-person team moved forward in the dark corridor, where all was silent except for the occasional sound of helicopter rotor blades coming from outside the window.

“Use the lens to check every room,” Wang Pan whispered. “Don’t miss any corner.”

"Is Lin Chen really that exaggerated?" the observer holding the lens muttered.

“Don’t underestimate him,” Wang Pan frowned. “Remember, he is the last opponent you should underestimate.”

The group marched down the corridor in tight formation for a long distance, searching every room.

Finally, they arrived at the door of room 812.

"Wang Hu, be the sentry," Wang Pan ordered. "Li Zi, prepare to break down the door."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Zi collapsed to the ground.

Wang Pan looked down and saw that Li Zi looked pained, as if he had suddenly been hit by a heavy punch.

"What..."

"The blood flow to his brainstem was temporarily stopped, and he just fainted."

Wang Pan turned around abruptly and saw a figure standing on the stairs between the eighth and ninth floors, looking down at them.

In the darkness, his eyes gleamed with a ghostly blue light.

"Take him down."
