Chapter 67

In the high-level meeting room of CT.

"Damn it! How could Nuya suddenly drop from the sky to that position!?" Zhang Yueshan abruptly stood up, looking at Nuya, who was surrounded by players from both sides and was wailing.

"This is... Is it the work of the Shadow Ghost team or has the mysterious organization finally lost patience?" Bu Xianglang frowned deeply. "I heard that the people of the mysterious organization are notoriously rigid, never acting without a precedent. Why would they act before the Shadow Ghost team makes a move?"

Zhang Yueshan looked at him. "What should we do now?"

A major beside him stepped forward and said, "Should we immediately stop those people from attacking Nuya?"

"Do you want to push us into a battle against everyone?" Zhang Yueshan slapped the table angrily. "They are already estranged from us. If we tell them to stop now, they will definitely fight us!"

Bu Xianglang thought for a moment and said, "All high-level members should set out immediately. The best method for us now is to find the other Nuyas first and capture them to send away. Additionally, Brother Yueshan, you should quickly spread the word that if 90% of the Nuyas die, all of us in CT will be wiped out, to make the lower-level members understand the severity."

Zhang Yueshan said, "Will they believe us at this point?"

Bu Xianglang replied, "We don't need them to believe us. Even if it makes them hesitate for a moment, it will be worth it!"

...

In the VIP lounge.

The woman stood up, her voice stiff. "What's going on? Why did a Nuya suddenly rush over?"

Beside her, a bald man with a grayish face said, "I investigated. That's not our exclusive Nuya messenger, but an ordinary person who was forcibly injected with a [Mutation Liquid]. Moreover, I think the person who did this is trying to help us, as they used a diluted version of the original [Mutation Liquid]."

"Diluted liquid!" The woman's voice trembled slightly. "That person has ruined our plans. A Nuya mutated with diluted liquid is hard to control and cannot achieve the precise effects of a Nuya messenger. It can only be given a general task and left to act on its own."

The bald man asked, "What should we do now?"

The woman said, "Let No. 3 take over and give it a killing target."

The bald man said, "But that will expose us."

The woman replied, "Nuya has already appeared; we are already exposed."

The bald man asked, "What about the mission?"

The woman said, "The situation is already chaotic. You and I will control the remaining seven and act immediately."

...

In a row of business vehicles parked outside the Hung Hom Stadium.

The scholar said, "Should we still hold back?"

Luo Jie pondered for a few seconds, his eyes flashing with determination. "It's time to act. With Nuya appearing, as you said, the CT high-level will definitely try to capture and send away the Nuyas. Whether the Nuya kill count can reach 90% depends on this battle... Now, it's time for the protagonist to make their entrance!"

"Notify everyone, act immediately!"

"Boss, what about the lower-level soldiers? They probably won't listen to us."

"Never mind them. The true deciders of this battle are only our Shadow Ghost team and Zhang Yueshan's [Kowloon Military]."

The doors of the vehicles opened in unison, and over a dozen fully armed soldiers followed Luo Jie as he charged forward. Luo Jie's voice echoed back, "Scholar, we will seal the doors to prevent anyone from escaping. You stay here and continue monitoring. Report any new developments immediately!"

"No problem."

Inside the Hung Hom Stadium, a chaotic battle was inevitable. Sealing the doors would undoubtedly trap thousands of spectators inside, but...

The scholar shook his head, reminding himself that since he had chosen this camp, he shouldn't care about others' lives.

Glancing at his mission panel, the scholar's thoughts circled the sky and returned to his chest, feeling that everything was in order, he finally breathed a long sigh of relief.

But, was it really that simple?

He poured himself a glass of red wine, his thoughts finally returning to the mission panel he had been staring at for a long time. Just one look, and the glass in his hand shattered!

A bright red liquid, whether blood or wine, dripped from his palm, but the scholar had no time to care.

His pupils, contracted like pinpricks, focused on a piece of data on the mission panel, and large sweat drops slid down his face.

[Nuya Hunt Progress (7/21)]!!!

"How could this be!!!" The scholar rubbed his eyes in disbelief. "Weren't there only 14 Nuyas left? Why is there another one!?"

"Could it be..."

Pondering, the scholar shivered. "During the siege at Zhang Yafen's residence... the two Nuyas that suddenly appeared..."

"If there is such a thing, creating Nuyas isn't difficult at all!"

"Damn! I must inform the boss immediately!"

Connecting the communicator, the scholar's body tensed. "The signal is completely blocked... damn, damn!"

He slammed his fist on the seat and suddenly jumped out of the car, running frantically towards the stadium.

...

On the stage, the Nuya was already making a desperate last stand. Despite its Nuya spray killing some players, it faced hundreds of players firing at it. No matter how strong the Nuya was, it couldn't turn the tide.

Seeing Ye Yun suddenly stand up, Su Ya asked, "Boss, where are you going? Isn't that Nuya almost finished?"

Ye Yun's expression was serious. "The battle has begun, and all sides will act, but..."

Recalling Cang Xing's appearance beside the Nuya... and the possibility that the Nuya and Cang Xing were somehow connected, Ye Yun had a vague suspicion.

"But... once the battle starts, everyone will fight for themselves, and that's when our mission is most likely to fail!"

Su Ya asked, "Boss, are you going to protect Sgirl?"

"Yes," Ye Yun said as he walked. "The mysterious organization's target, whether it's them or something they possess, is easier to obtain by being close to them. Protection is best done from their side."

"What about me?" Su Ya asked urgently.

"If you want to survive... find a place where no one is!"

The chaos inside the stadium did not escalate, as the intense battle on stage was more of a siege. The audience did not panic and cause a stampede.

But this calm did not last long. As Ye Yun jumped down the internal passage, several loud explosions and violent vibrations shook the entire stadium.

Ye Yun was startled and quickly looked towards the bottom of the entrance passage, his pupils contracting.

Amidst the rolling smoke, several armed men moved swiftly into the stadium.

"Earth Dragon!" Ye Yun frowned. "What are you doing?"

"Sealing the exits," Earth Dragon said as he rushed past. "To prevent any Nuya from escaping."

Ye Yun said angrily, "A chaotic battle is about to start, and you're trapping hundreds of players and thousands of civilians in Hung Hom! Moreover, the person or item the Nuya wants cannot escape either!"

Earth Dragon sneered. "The lives of players and civilians are none of your business. Do you think you're part of CT? As for the mysterious organization's mission, as long as the Nuya can't escape, they won't complete it."

The two stood facing each other. Earth Dragon looked at Ye Yun coldly. "Yun, mind your own business, and stay out of what doesn't concern you!"

Ye Yun sneered and turned to leave.

After witnessing the 'superpowers' of Cang Xing and the Sun Moon Sword, Ye Yun naturally wouldn't underestimate a battalion-level officer. Moreover, entangling with Earth Dragon and his men was meaningless. The entry of the Shadow Ghost team meant the most intense battle was about to begin.

Rushing along the staff passage, Ye Yun soon reached the No. 2 performers' lounge. However, he was still too late!

Inside the lounge, intense gunfire had already erupted, involving four different factions!

Ducking to avoid a few stray bullets, Ye Yun crashed into the nearest dressing room, gripping his Tavor assault rifle and pressing the earpiece. "Mainframe, what's going on? Weren't you monitoring the No. 2 lounge? Why didn't I know the battle had already started?"

"Buzz... static..."

His ear was filled with poor signal interference.

"Damn!"

Ye Yun hadn't expected the signal to be blocked. The gunshots, punches, and Nuya's roars outside were growing more intense. Charging into the battle alone would mean instant death!

Just as Ye Yun was pondering, a hand suddenly landed on his shoulder!
