You went on a blind date and presented an A-level wanted criminal as a meeting gift?

Dead silence.

Absolute silence.

Inside the cave, the brief but intense sounds of gunfire from before seemed like an illusion.

Four still-warm corpses lay scattered in pools of blood and puddles. The air was thick with the smells of gunpowder, blood, and the chilling stench of groundwater, all blending together to create a nauseating stench of death.

The only one still alive was the ringleader, who was completely encased in a black diving suit.

However, his current situation is a thousand times more painful than death.

"Uh...ah..."

He lay sprawled on the cold, rocky ground like a dead dog with a broken spine, uttering incomprehensible groans of pain.

His limbs were twisted at bizarre angles; his wrists, ankles, knees, elbows… all the joints that could move were dismembered inch by inch by a merciless hand in the most precise and cruel way in that split second.

Lin Chen casually placed one foot on his chest, the force of which was not great, yet it was like an unshakeable mountain, leaving him no chance to struggle.

Su Qingge gripped her sidearm tightly, standing a few steps behind Lin Chen. Her pretty face appeared somewhat pale under the bright flashlight beam.

Even though she was used to seeing all kinds of crime scenes, her heart still couldn't help but pound when she saw Lin Chen's massacre just now and his nonchalant torture.

That wasn't just simple fighting; it was an art form purely for killing.

Extremely efficient, precise, and ruthless!

But she felt no fear whatsoever; instead, a strange, burning sense of security welled up within her.

She knew that all of this man's ruthlessness and violence would only be directed at his enemies.

"Nice equipment, but unfortunately, the person using it is useless."

Lin Chen lowered his head, looking at the assassin at his feet, his tone as calm as if he were commenting on a product.

He slowly crouched down, ignoring the assassin's face contorted with pain and fear, and leisurely pulled a small syringe from the pocket of his tactical vest.

It was that very drug that struck fear into the hearts of countless criminals—the Truth-Telling Agent!

Upon seeing the syringe gleaming with a cold, icy light, the assassin's pupils constricted sharply, and his body trembled violently, as if he had a premonition of the terrifying fate that awaited him.

As an elite member of the Dark Moon organization, he had undergone the most rigorous anti-interrogation training, and he would rather grit his teeth than utter a single word.

"You...don't even think about it..."

He squeezed out a few words through gritted teeth, then gritted his teeth again!

However, the scenario he envisioned—the venom sac hidden in the molar ruptured, instantly paralyzing his nerves with the deadly poison—did not occur.

"Looking for this?"

Lin Chen opened his other hand, and two tiny poison sacs, smaller than grains of rice and wrapped in a layer of wax, lay quietly in his palm.

Just moments ago, when he dislocated his jaw joint, Lin Chen used his "god-level magic speed" to easily remove the "last safeguard" from his mouth.

For the first time, a genuine, soul-deep despair appeared in the assassin's eyes.

This man is a devil!

"Pfft!"

Lin Chen stopped wasting words with him and, without hesitation, precisely plunged the cold needle into the killer's carotid artery in his neck.

The cold liquid was injected instantly.

"Now, let's play a question-and-answer game."

Lin Chen's voice was very soft, yet it sounded like a demonic voice from the deepest hell, drilling into the assassin's mind.

"Who is your leader? Where is your underwater base?"

The assassin's body trembled violently, and his eyes, which were bloodshot from pain, instantly became dull and empty, losing all their luster.

His brain, his will, and all the counter-interrogation techniques he was so proud of were instantly destroyed like paper in the face of the powerful effects of the "Truth-Telling Agent."

He became a puppet who could only speak the truth.

"Yes... Lady Siren..."

His lips moved, and he answered blankly in a dreamlike, involuntary voice.

"A siren?"

Lin Chen raised an eyebrow.

"Yes... he's a special envoy from Darkmoon's European headquarters... in charge of... in charge of the 'Azure Mine' project here..."

Azure Mine!

Lin Chen and Su Qingge exchanged a glance and instantly understood that this must be their official name for this biological mining base.

"Where is the underwater base?"

Lin Chen continued to press for answers.

"Right...right below this pool...in a deep-sea rift 300 meters below...there's...a separate life support system and a submarine entrance..."

This answer made Su Qingge gasp.

Build a secret base in a deep-sea rift 300 meters below the island?

What terrifying financial and technological power this is!

The Dark Moon Organization's foundation was far deeper than she had imagined!

Lin Chen's expression grew even colder as he asked the last and most crucial question.

"Do you have any other plans on the island?"

The assassin's body began to convulse violently and uncontrollably, as if the question had touched upon the deepest taboo in his subconscious. An expression of extreme fear appeared on his face.

"There's...there's...our mole in the resort...he...he's in charge of cutting off the backup power at midnight tonight...and then..."

"And then what?!"

Lin Chen's voice suddenly became louder.

"Then...the Siren...will personally lead the team...to massacre the resort...to kill everyone...to cover it up...to cover everything up..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the assassin's body suddenly arched, then went completely limp like a lump of mud.

A stream of black, foul-smelling blood flowed from the corner of his mouth; his eyes were wide open, and he was already dead.

Forcibly revealing top-level secrets caused a violent conflict between his brain's protective mechanisms and the drug's effects, directly leading to brain death.

But the information he revealed before his death struck Lin Chen and Su Qingge like a heavy hammer!

Inside man!

Bloodbath at the resort!

Lin Chen suddenly stood up, his face instantly turning ashen!

He glanced at the tactical watch on his wrist; the time was 11:40 PM!

There are only twenty minutes left until midnight!

Ye Qingcheng, Su Ke'er, and their parents are all at the resort!

A chilling killing intent erupted from Lin Chen's body, as if it were a tangible force, causing the temperature of the entire cavern to drop several degrees suddenly!

"Dark Moon...Siren..."

Lin Chen pronounced the two names slowly and deliberately, his deep eyes burning with a raging fury capable of incinerating everything.

You guys have successfully angered me.
