Ultimate: Gangster Youth, starting with release from prison

Before she could finish speaking, she hung up the phone. Zhang Fei immediately dialed Guan Yu's number, but no one answered.

In front of Fengming Temple, Cao Cao, Lin Yu, and Zhang Fei gazed at the strange-looking temple.

“This Fengming Temple has an inexplicable strangeness about it,” Zhao Yun said.

"What's so strange about it? It doesn't matter." Zhang Fei, who was anxious to save people, said as he walked into the temple. Ma Chao, Zhao Yun, and Huang Zhong followed closely behind. Lin Yu and Cao Cao did not choose to go in.

Cao Cao asked Lin Yu, "What is this strange feeling that Brother Liu mentioned?"

Seeing Lin Yu deep in thought, Cao Cao added, "This concerns the safety of our brothers."

Lin Yu explained simply: "Simply put, this is a high-level illusion. People who enter it will be trapped in the illusion and lose self-control."

"Is there a way to break this?" Cao Cao asked anxiously.

"It can be broken, but the risk is considerable," Lin Yu thought to himself, but said aloud, "I'm not entirely confident."

"I'll go in and take a look. You wait outside." After saying that, Lin Yu walked straight towards Fengming Temple.

Inside the temple, Ma Chao, Zhang Fei, Huang Zhong, and Zhao Yun immediately lost their way. Ma Chao, Zhang Fei, and Zhao Yun were instantly hallucinating, while only Huang Zhong, due to his large lung capacity and slow breathing, remained unaffected. He anxiously searched for the three missing men.

Lin Yu was spotted by the sentry as soon as he stepped inside. The sentry shouted:

"Another intruder broke in, and they were unaffected!"

The others gathered at the sound, and judging from their clothes, they were from the security team of Hedong High School. This place was actually a secret base of Hedong High School, set up specifically to deal with difficult targets.

As soon as Lin Yu entered the temple, he felt a force enter his body with each breath, rushing straight to his mind.

Lin Yu let it go as it pleased, observing its effects. Suddenly, a sea of ​​flowers appeared before him, deserted, swaying gently in the wind, with pale red mist spreading, the fragrance intoxicating yet bewildering.

Lin Yu realized that this smoke could erode the mind, eventually causing people to lose their way and become puppets.

Lin Yu frowned slightly, and with a little effort, he dispelled the invading force. His vision returned to the scene inside the temple, but the force attacked again as soon as he took a breath. Lin Yu used a breath-holding technique to prevent the external force from affecting him.

Lin Yu was searching in the temple when he encountered Huang Zhong coming down from above.

"Huang Zhong, are you alone? Where are my third brother and the others?" Lin Yu asked.

"I'm looking for them. The air here is weird. I'm not affected because I breathe slowly, but Zhang Fei and the others seemed off as soon as they came in. They got separated from me." Huang Zhong quickly informed Lin Yu of the situation.

“Okay, let’s look together. Staying too long isn’t good for your health…” Lin Yu said.

"kill!"

Several students from Hedong High School attacked with weapons. Huang Zhong quickly countered with the Sky Chaser Bow. Although he avoided the illusion, his breathing quickened after he attacked, and he was on the verge of collapse after knocking down three people.

Huang Zhong shook his head violently, trying to stay conscious. Seeing this, the two security guards brandished their knives, pointing them at Huang Zhong's head. Lin Yu flicked two beams of white light from his fingertips, repelling the two men, and then appeared before Huang Zhong.

"Use your turtle breathing technique, and don't make any big movements. Leave it to me."

Huang Zhong nodded and did as instructed. After the drowsiness subsided, he and Lin Yu searched for Zhang Fei and the others. Finding nothing on the second floor, they turned to the third floor.

"Oops."

Lin Yu rushed to Zhang Fei, Ma Chao, and Zhao Yun's side. Huang Zhong also noticed that they were unconsciously lingering on the fourth-floor rooftop, about to fall if they took another step. Huang Zhong quickly followed behind.

Just as the three were about to fall, Lin Yu grabbed Zhao Yun and shouted.

"Hold your breath!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yun immediately stopped breathing, thus breaking free from the illusion. Huang Zhong reached out and grabbed Ma Chao, making him hold his breath, and Ma Chao also regained consciousness.

"Zhang Fei!"

The four shouted, and Zhang Fei, who had been ignored, disappeared from everyone's sight, causing them to scream in surprise.

Zhang Fei walked to the edge but did not move forward. Instead, he squatted down to tie his shoelaces, then leisurely turned around and returned. Everyone wondered if he had really fallen under an illusion.

Zhang Fei turned to the right side of the rooftop, and Ma Chao caught up, shaking Zhang Fei's shoulder.

"Old Zhang, hold your breath!"

Zhang Fei seemed not to hear and continued walking. Ma Chao forcibly pulled Zhang Fei back and called out to him repeatedly, but Zhang Fei remained unresponsive. Finally, Ma Chao pinched Zhang Fei's mouth and nose with his hand, and Zhang Fei finally woke up.

[341] Dong Zhuo was attacked and framed Cao Cao and Lin Yu.

"What the hell are you doing!" Zhang Fei roared.

“Hold your breath; the air here can cause hallucinations,” Ma Chao said.

Zhang Fei said after holding his breath.

"It's infuriating, they always pull this stunt."

"Everyone, don't split up, take turns holding your breath,"

Lin Yu suggested, "Let's hurry and find our second brother."

The five people searched for Guan Yu on the fourth floor, and found him unconscious by the stairs leading to the sixth floor.

"Second brother!"

Seeing Guan Yu rush over, Zhang Fei helped him up and checked his condition.

"kill!"

A large number of security guards from Hedong came down from the sixth floor, and crowds also surged from the other directions on the fifth floor, surrounding Zhang Fei and his companions, as well as Lin Yu.

Zhang Fei, supporting the unconscious Guan Yu, Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, and Huang Zhong, all drew their weapons and surveyed the surrounding enemies with grave expressions.

"Alright, you four just focus on protecting Guan Yu. You can't use your full strength here, so leave it to me," Lin Yu instructed the Five Tiger Generals.

The guards here are all minor characters with little or no combat power, and Lin Yu is too lazy to deal with them one by one.

"Mind Control, freeze them!" Lin Yu pointed his finger, and the enemy in front of him froze like a statue. Then he turned around and pointed again, and the people behind him were also frozen, signaling the Five Tiger Generals to take Guan Yu away.

The five tiger generals stared blankly at the Hedong High School security team, who stood like stone statues, before turning their gazes to Lin Yu.

“Come on, I didn’t attack you, did I?” Lin Yu said.

"Big brother, that move is so cool! Can you teach me?" Zhang Fei said, his eyes filled with envy.

Everyone else looked at Lin Yu with anticipation.

"Want to learn? Your combat power is so low, even if you learn it, you won't be able to use it, it'll be a waste."

Lin Yu's words left everyone with an undisguised sense of disappointment.

"I'll consider whether to teach you when your combat power breaks through 24000," Lin Yu added.

"Really? Then I'll go back and train like crazy!" Zhang Fei exclaimed excitedly.

The others also looked eager to try; who wouldn't want to learn such a powerful move?

Outside Fengming Temple.

"It's a great blessing that you're all safe and sound," Cao Cao said as he saw the five people walking out of the temple.

"If it weren't for my elder brother's help, we would probably have perished here at Fengming Temple today."

“That’s right. There are illusions inside, and we can’t use our full strength. There are so many people from Hedong High School. Each of them could kill us with a single kick,” Ma Chao and Zhao Yun agreed.

"Hua Tuo, quickly take a look at my second brother," Zhang Fei said hurriedly upon seeing Hua Tuo.

Hua Tuo put down his backpack and took out bottles of water, handing them to them.

"This is my newly developed 'Magic Dew,' which can quickly restore your strength. You can rest assured that Guan Yu has given it to me."

After examining Guan Yu, Hua Tuo said, "Second Brother's internal injuries are quite severe and he needs proper care. Don't worry, I'm confident in my abilities."

Upon learning that Guan Yu was safe, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Cao Cao said, "The most important thing is that everyone is safe and sound. I didn't expect Dong Zhuo to act so quickly; this time he actually wants to wipe us out in one fell swoop."

"This despicable person is actually the principal! We have to find him and demand an explanation!" Ma Chao said indignantly.

"It's all in vain. We have no concrete evidence, and we don't know what tricks he'll pull next. Everyone be careful. Let's go back to Cao Cao's residence to treat Guan Yu's injuries first," Cao Cao warned.

"Yes." Everyone nodded and helped Guan Yu back to Cao Cao's residence.

The group returned to Cao Cao's residence, only to find Li Ru and Mei Niang, leading the security team from Hedong High School, facing off against Cao Cao's guards, both sides holding guns. Cao Cao hurriedly stepped forward to ask questions.

"Li Ru, what does this mean? This is my home. Who allowed you to break in?"

Li Ru turned around and looked arrogantly at Cao Cao, "Last night, Principal Dong Zhuo was attacked. The principal said it was done by you, Cao Cao and Liu Bei, and ordered us to arrest you two."

"What? Dong Zhuo was ambushed, and they're saying we did it?"

"Nonsense! Last night, the guild leader and Brother Lin were with us the whole time. They didn't have time to ambush Dong Zhuo!" Zhang Fei cursed. They had ambushed Guan Yu, lured everyone to Fengming Temple, and now they were framing Cao Cao and Lin Yu.

"What evidence do you have that we attacked Dong Zhuo? Empty words are useless," Cao Cao retorted.

"Hmph, of course there's evidence, take a look."

Li Ru showed a plate with two pairs of black gloves on it.

　723 “What’s so special about gloves?” Everyone was speechless.

"Gloves alone don't prove anything, but look at this."

Li Ru then took out a small bottle with the word "DNA" printed on it.

"This is a DNA serum developed by Hedong University. Once sprayed on, no one but the owner can use it."

As he spoke, he sprayed it a few times on the people around him and told them to try it.

"It seems they stole our things while we were away and are deliberately pinning the blame on us. Dong Zhuo is truly treacherous," Cao Cao said in a deep voice.
