Thunderstorm Asthma? I’ll Just Drain the National Power Grid!

145: I, an undercover agent, was called upon by the BOSS to attend a core meeting!”Lord...”

Lin Yuan poked his head out from the back of the ambulance, looking at Night Crow in the driver’s seat, and asked,

”What exactly is that ’final moment’ Lord Tianshu mentioned?”

Night Crow glanced at him through the rearview mirror.

”Shut up.”

”Don’t ask what you shouldn’t ask.”

Lin Yuan pulled his head back, looking startled.

”Yes... Yes! Lord!”

He sat back in the compartment, head bowed, not daring to utter another word.

However, in his heart, he was complaining.

Brother, it’s this late, and you’re still playing these games with me?

But, his vigilance is indeed commendable.

After circling a few times to confirm there were no tails, the ambulance was abandoned in a remote scrapyard.

Night Crow, from who knows where, procured an unremarkable black sedan.

The two changed into the most ordinary casual clothes and blended into the traffic returning to the city.

All the way.

Lin Yuan played the role of a terrified ”survivor.”

But his Electromagnetic Induction never stopped for a moment.

The car passed a traffic light intersection.

A faint electric arc shot out from Lin Yuan’s fingertip, entering the intersection’s signal controller.

The car drove through the commercial district in the city center.

Lin Yuan’s gaze was drawn to an LED billboard.

Another electromagnetic pulse attached itself to the billboard’s control System.

The same coordinates were once again left by him, without anyone noticing.

The electronic display boards at bus stops, the shared charging stations by the roadside, even the aviation warning lights atop tall buildings... He was like a ”short-circuit hero” leaking electricity wherever he went.

Seemingly unintentional, yet his objective was clear.

He scattered the coordinates of Jiang City Central Plaza, like distributing flyers, all along the road back to the city.

Hopefully... the brothers in the Dragon Shield Bureau intelligence team will step up.

Don’t let me work for nothing... Jiang City, Central Plaza.

People came and went, bustling with activity.

Night Crow led Lin Yuan through the crowd and into a public restroom in a shopping mall.

Night Crow carefully checked every stall, and only after confirming no one was inside, did he lock the restroom door.

He walked to the last stall and lifted the toilet tank lid.

Instead of pressing the flush button, he tapped the tank wall a few times in a strange ”three long, two short” rhythm.

”Click.”

The stall wall slid open to one side.

Revealing a downward-extending passage.

Lin Yuan followed Night Crow inside.

The sight before him shook Lin Yuan to his core.

What a grand scale!

This was an incredibly vast underground space, easily the size of a dozen football fields.

In the very center of the space, a black spire over a hundred meters tall stood erect!

The surface of the spire was carved with countless runes, emitting an ominous red glow.

From all directions, energy circuits extended from the ceilings and floors, finally converging at the base of the spire.

Just as the two stepped into the base.

”Swish! Swish!”

Two dark figures blocked their way.

They were two enforcers wearing Black Masks.

One of them sized up Night Crow and let out a sneer.

”Oh, isn’t this our famous Lord Night Crow?”

”I heard you led a team to search for treasure in the Secret Realm, how come... only you returned?”

The other Black Mask also said in a strange tone, ”More than that, he even brought back a half-dead burden.”

Night Crow’s face darkened.

His injured left leg throbbed faintly, and new and old grudges surged in his heart.

Black energy began to appear by his side.

Just as he was about to make a move.

”My man.”

A majestic voice came from a platform not far away.

”Since when did it become your turn to judge?”

The two Black Masks stiffened, the mockery on their faces turning to fear.

”Lord... Lord Tianshu!”

The two fell to their knees with a ”thud.”

Tianshu’s figure slowly descended from the platform.

Behind him, four more figures followed.

Each of them wore a silver mask!

A total of five Silver Mask Envoys!

One of the Silver Mask Envoys, wearing a scorpion-patterned mask, laughed aloud.

”Tianshu, don’t protect him anymore. This subordinate of yours truly brings you glory.”

”A simple Secret Realm clearing mission, and he almost wiped out the entire army. Truly useless.”

Another Silver Mask Envoy, wearing a dove-patterned mask, stepped forward.

”Scorpio, say less.”

”Now is not the time to assign blame.”

The remaining two Silver Mask Envoys, one stood with arms crossed, the other watched with interest, clearly enjoying the show.

Just then.

Footsteps came from behind the crowd.

The already tense atmosphere instantly solidified.

Even the arrogant Tianshu and Scorpio instinctively reined in their Qi and bowed slightly.

A figure slowly emerged from the shadows of the spire.

He also wore a silver mask.

But on that mask, there were no patterns, smooth as a mirror.

The moment he appeared, he became the center of the entire space.

”Quiet, everyone.”

All the Silver Mask Envoys, including Tianshu, respectfully lowered their heads.

”Yes, Lord ’Mirror.’”

Mirror swept his gaze across the room.

”The Dragon Shield Bureau’s dogs have already caught the scent.”

His voice echoed through the base.

”In the past forty-eight hours.”

”Our three Rank A strongholds and seven Rank B strongholds deployed around Jiang City were completely wiped out.”

”Not a single survivor was left.”

At these words, the entire place fell silent!

Tianshu and Scorpio both showed shocked expressions on their faces.

”How could it be so fast?!”

”Our strongholds underwent the highest Rank of disguise and shielding!”

Mirror did not answer their question, but continued:

”If we wait any longer, we will be next.”

”They will find this place sooner or later.”

”When that happens, we will be sitting ducks.”

He turned around and looked at the huge black spire.

”This is why I summoned you all here.”

Lin Yuan stood behind Night Crow, head bowed, perfectly playing the role of a background.

But in his heart, a storm was raging.

’It seems they not only received the signals I left, but their operational efficiency is also quite high!’

’It’s going to be lively now.’

Mirror said no more. He withdrew his gaze and turned to walk towards an alloy door on the side of the spire.

”All Silver Mask Envoys, and Black Masks, follow me.”

Tianshu, Scorpio, and the other Silver Mask Envoys followed.

The two Black Masks kneeling on the ground also quickly got up, heads bowed, following closely behind.

Night Crow glanced at Lin Yuan behind him, hesitated for a moment, but ultimately dragged his injured leg, limping to catch up with the group.

Lin Yuan, meanwhile, stood still, head bowed, unmoving.

He was very aware of his identity.

He wasn’t even considered a formal Black Mask, just a ”survivor” brought back by Night Crow, completely unqualified to participate in a meeting of this Rank.

Just as he thought he would be left here as a guard, Tianshu, walking in the middle of the group, suddenly stopped.

He turned around, his gaze falling on Lin Yuan.

”A Li.”

His voice came.

Lin Yuan looked up, his face blank.

Tianshu pointed to the group, his tone flat.

”You follow too.”
