Chapter 566: Covert Tracking and Perilous Situations
The footsteps of the dark forces' soldiers grew closer, and Lin Yu's heart leaped into his throat. He gripped his weapon tightly, gave his team a look, signaling them to prepare for battle. At this critical moment, Ellie suddenly pulled a smoke grenade from her waist and threw it forcefully a short distance away. With a muffled thud, smoke instantly billowed out, enveloping a large area.
"Quick, now's the time!" Lin Yu shouted, leading his team to crouch low and quickly retreat in the opposite direction. Caught off guard by the smoke, the dark forces soldiers fired wildly through the haze, bullets flying in all directions. By the time they finally managed to clear the smoke and catch up, Lin Yu and his men had vanished without a trace.
After escaping danger, Lin Yu and the others continued towards the tower. Along the way, they discovered that the city had been heavily infiltrated by dark forces, with their spies everywhere. To avoid revealing their location, they had to carefully navigate through the ruins and alleyways.
"Lin Yu, according to the map, we're very close to the tower, but the dark forces around us are increasing in number. We need to be careful," Ellie said in a low voice, while cautiously observing her surroundings. Lin Yu nodded, his gaze sweeping over the surrounding buildings, trying to find a safe route.
Just then, they heard a deep rumble, followed by a massive flying mech flying overhead. The mech was entirely black, equipped with various heavy weapons, and exuded a powerful aura of oppression. "This is a new weapon from the dark forces; we must avoid its detection," Lin Yu said, then led his team into an abandoned building.
The flying mech circled in the air a few times, seemingly sensing something, and slowly flew towards their location. The searchlight on the mech swept across the ground, about to illuminate their hiding place. Lin Yu and the others dared not breathe, pressing themselves tightly against the wall, gripping their weapons even tighter.
Just as the searchlight was about to sweep across them, the mech suddenly received a communication signal, paused briefly, and then quickly flew off in another direction. Lin Yu and the others breathed a sigh of relief, finally putting their minds at ease.
After a difficult trek, they finally arrived near the tower. The tower soared into the clouds, surrounded by fortifications, making it no easy feat to approach. Lin Yu carefully observed the area around the tower and discovered an underground passage that seemed to lead to the base, but the entrance was heavily guarded.
"It seems we need to find a way to distract these guards," Lin Yu said after a moment of thought. At that moment, Xiao Wang suddenly had a flash of inspiration: "I have an idea! We can use the communication jammer we just picked up to create a fake signal source and attract their attention."
Lin Yu's eyes lit up: "Great idea, let's do it!" So, Xiao Wang activated the communication jammer, setting it to a powerful signal source, and threw it far from the passage entrance. Sure enough, the guards of the dark forces quickly discovered the signal source, thinking that enemies were attacking from that direction, and they all ran towards the signal source.
Taking advantage of the guards' absence, Lin Yu and his group quickly rushed towards the underground passage. However, just as they were about to enter, one of the guards suddenly remembered something and turned back. Upon seeing Lin Yu and his group, he immediately sounded the alarm and opened fire.
Lin Yu reacted quickly, dodging the bullets by sidestepping, then lunged forward and knocked the guard down with his weapon. But the alarm had already sounded, and the surrounding dark forces soldiers swarmed towards them.
"Quick, into the tunnel!" Lin Yu shouted, leading his team into the underground passage. The dark forces soldiers pursued relentlessly, engaging in a fierce chase through the tunnel. The passage was narrow and dark, bullets whizzing against the walls.
In the fierce firefight, one of the team members was unfortunately shot in the leg and fell to the ground. "I'll cover the rear, you guys go!" the wounded team member said through gritted teeth. Lin Yu shook his head resolutely: "No, we can't leave anyone behind!" With that, he and the other team members helped the wounded team member up and continued running forward.
Just as they were about to reach the end of the passage, a heavy metal door suddenly appeared in front of them, blocking their path. Could Lin Yu and his companions find a way to open the metal door and successfully enter the tower before the dark forces' soldiers caught up?
