Chapter 76 - Chapter 76: Exposed

The night outside the factory grow darker and darker, the streetlights in the distance flickering, macam trying to hint something. Li Chuan and his team moved fast, cutting through the steel ruins. Behind them, the Nightveil control room lay in ruins—but they knew, this just the beginning nia.

Shen Qiu's eyes glued to his device, his voice low, "Our signal kena detected already… They are tracking our movement now."

Li Chuan's face cold as ice, his tone even colder. "Take a detour. Exit from the west side of the industrial zone. Don't go in straight line."

Cheng Mo frowned. "You think they will just let us go?"

Before he even finish talking, Nightveil's backup team arrived liao.

The factory's iron gates suddenly burst open. Dark figures moved fast through the ruins, their gun sights glowing red in the dark—like hungry wolves sniffing out their prey.

"They here," Su Man's voice came from the earpiece, "At least got eight of them, flanking from both sides."

Li Chuan quickly assessed the situation, voice sharp. "Split up. Cheng Mo, you take Shen Qiu north side, Su Man cover you two. I go south, distract them."

Cheng Mo glance at him, voice unreadable. "You alone?"

"Relax." Li Chuan smirk. "They haven't kill me yet."

Cheng Mo no say anything more. He grabbed Shen Qiu and disappeared into the shadows, while Li Chuan ran the opposite direction, purposely making noise, pulling Nightveil's focus onto himself.

Bullets whizzed past, cutting through the night air. Li Chuan move fast, dodging behind a rusted steel frame. His sharp eyes scan the enemy positions—these guys, bukan biasa-biasa one. Their formation tight, got no obvious weak spots.

Taking a deep breath, he raised his gun and fired. Bang!Bang! Two enemies drop to the ground before they even react.

"He's on the south side!"

"Surround him!"

Nightveil operatives immediately changed formation, tightening their siege. But then—

BANG!

A sniper shot cut through the night. One of the pursuers collapsed, blood spraying across the dirt floor.

Su Man's voice, ice-cold, came through the comms. "Don't let them close in."

Li Chuan seize the opportunity. He leapt onto a broken conveyor belt, sprinting towards an abandoned side passage. Nightveil's gunfire chased him, but he always managed to stay just one step ahead.

But he knew, this advantage won't last long—if they didn't escape soon, mati confirm.

Meanwhile, Cheng Mo and Shen Qiu managed to sneak past the northern factory wall, successfully bypassing the enemy's encirclement.

Shen Qiu, still running, was frantically scanning through the data he had extracted from Nightveil's system. The more he read, the deeper his brows furrowed.

"Li Chuan… we got bigger problem than we thought," his voice carried a rare hint of unease. "Nightveil not just researching memory control technology. They already got human test subjects."

Li Chuan, still dodging enemy fire, gritted his teeth. "Test subjects? Who?"

Shen Qiu's fingers scrolled fast on the screen, then suddenly stopped at a particular name. His expression turned dark.

"Experiment Code: Zero."

Li Chuan's breath hitched slightly. A deep sense of unease crept over him.

"They using real people for experiment?" Cheng Mo's voice turned colder.

"Worse than that…" Shen Qiu inhaled sharply, lowering his voice. "This 'Zero'—he already successfully adapted to their memory control system."

A brief silence. Then Shen Qiu added, voice heavy,

"In other words—they already created the first 'living puppet'."

Li Chuan's steps momentarily faltered. A chill ran down his spine.

Nightveil's scheme was far, far worse than any of them had imagined.

And now, the storm was only getting closer.
