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

Only after Lin Chen's figure completely disappeared around the corner of the passage did the last trace of scrutiny slowly dissipate from the siren's gloomy blue eyes.

He ultimately failed to discover any flaws.

Lin Chen mingled among Team B, walking with the same stiff and mechanical steps as the other assassins, heading deeper into the base.

His heartbeat remained as steady as a stagnant pool, but his brain was racing at an alarming rate of billions of times per second.

The "Deep Sea Funeral Song" project...

Injecting XT-7 nerve gas into the resort's underground water circulation system...

One more hour...

These cold words echoed repeatedly in his mind, and with each echo, the killing intent hidden beneath the [holographic disguise patch] on his body intensified!

What a siren!

What a vicious plan!

If they can't have it, they'll destroy it completely, even if it means taking the innocent lives of an entire island with them!

Lin Chen's gaze, hidden beneath his helmet where no one could see, was as cold as the permafrost of Siberia.

His women—Su Qingge, Ye Qingcheng, Jiang Tingxue, Su Ke'er…—are all on that island right now!

The thought that they might suffer even the slightest harm because of this madman's plan made Lin Chen's blood feel like it was about to burn!

Want to run?

No way!

We've welded all the windows shut!

Team B moved quickly, and after passing through several intricate alloy tunnels, a damp, stuffy smell mixed with a strong odor of engine oil hit them.

We've arrived at the pump house.

This is an incredibly large underground space, with a ceiling height of over twenty meters.

Countless massive pipes, with diameters that were terrifying, intertwined like giant pythons, covered the walls and ceiling of the entire space.

The massive turbopumps are roaring loudly, providing water circulation and pressure balance for the entire underwater base.

In the very center of the pump room, next to an exceptionally thick pipe marked "Fresh Water Transport - A7", two guards were already waiting.

At their feet were two enormous, unsettlingly dark green high-pressure gas cylinders.

XT-7 Nerve Gas!

"Hurry up! Lord Siren only gave us one hour!"

One of the elite guards in charge of the escort urged impatiently.

"Numbers 33 and 54, you two, connect the gas canisters to the injection valve on the main pipeline!"

Lin Chen, now known as Number 33, and another assassin codenamed Number 54, immediately stepped forward.

The suicide soldier, number 54, deftly removed the special high-pressure hose from the wall and began connecting it to the valve of the gas canister.

Lin Chen was assigned to open the injection valve on the main pipeline, which looked incredibly complicated.

The opportunity has arrived!

Lin Chen lowered his head and silently walked behind the two guards who were concentrating on their work.

The roaring noise inside the pump room became his best cover.

The attention of the other guards around them was also focused on the "great mission" that was about to be completed, and they did not notice at all that their "comrade" had transformed into a death god about to show his fangs.

Just as the elite guard looked down to check the pressure gauge, and the other assassin bent down to tighten the pipe connector!

Lin Chen made a move!

His body seemed weightless; with just a slight sway, he moved like a ghost close to the elite guard's back.

[Grandmaster-level combat skills]!

His right hand transformed into a sharp blade, without making a sound, yet containing terrifying power that could shatter the heavens and earth. With perfect precision and gentleness, it sliced ​​into the back of the guard's neck—the junction of the brainstem and spine!

"Click!"

A barely perceptible, soft cracking sound, like bones breaking, was perfectly masked by the enormous noise.

The elite guard's body stiffened abruptly, his expression frozen in his anxious urging, but his eyes instantly lost all their luster, and he collapsed silently like limp mud with its bones removed.

One fatal blow!

And this is just the beginning!

As he killed the first person, Lin Chen lowered his body and slid to the side of another guard who was carrying a gas canister.

The guard seemed to sense something and was about to turn around.

But it was too late.

Lin Chen's left elbow struck his jawbone from below at a tricky and ruthless angle!

"Bang!"

A dull thud.

The guard felt an irresistible force coming from his chin. His head snapped back, his cervical spine making a teeth-grinding "crack" sound. His vision went black, and before he could even utter a sound, he fell straight backward, unconscious on the spot!

The whole process happened in the blink of an eye!

Extremely fast!

It was so quiet it was almost unbearable!

It wasn't until the two bodies collapsed to the ground that the other guards on guard finally realized something was wrong!

"Enemy attack!"

"Number 33 is a traitor!"

A fierce roar suddenly rang out, and seven or eight dark gun barrels simultaneously turned and aimed at Lin Chen!

However, Lin Chen's face remained completely expressionless.

He didn't even look at the gun barrels that were already aimed at him, but instead focused his gaze on the valve of the gas pipeline that was already half-connected.

His brow furrowed slightly.

Above the valve, a complex device, glowing red, sat quietly.

Anti-tamper pressure-sensitive bomb!

Once the pressure in the gas canister begins to be injected, the bomb will be activated.

Any attempt to cut off the pipeline or forcibly remove the valve will detonate the bomb instantly!

That's a brilliant double insurance strategy!

"Die, you bastard!"

One of the guards roared and pulled the trigger first!

"Da da da da—!"

A violent storm of metal instantly poured towards Lin Chen's location!

But, at the very moment the gunshot rang out, Lin Chen's figure left an afterimage in the same spot!

[God-level Parkour]!

He moved like a nimble ape, leaping suddenly and clinging to a thick pipe running overhead. With a few quick maneuvers, he flung all the bullets behind him.

"He's up there! Fire!"

The guards raised their guns and opened fire.

However, Lin Chen's goal was not to get entangled in a fight with them at all!

He used the pipe to his advantage, swinging his body in a graceful arc and landing precisely on top of the anti-disassembly bomb!

"He's insane! What is he trying to do?"

"He wants to defuse the bomb? Impossible! That's the 'Kiss of Death' designed by Lord Siren himself! No one but himself can undo it!"

The guards looked at Lin Chen's actions with mocking smiles, as if they were looking at a dead man.

However, the smiles on their faces froze completely the next second.

Lin Chen was seen squatting on the pipe, facing a device whose structure was so complex that it would make even the world's top bomb disposal experts' scalps tingle. He didn't even use any tools!

[God-level Mechanical Mastery]!

[Godlike magician's hand speed!]

Two divine skills activated simultaneously!

Time seemed to slow down countless times at this moment.

In Lin Chen's eyes, the bomb was instantly disintegrated into countless parts: complex circuits, sophisticated sensors, hidden trigger fuses... everything became as clear as the lines on his palm!

His hands transformed into two phantoms that were completely invisible to the naked eye!

His ten fingers are more stable and precise than the most sophisticated robotic arm!

"Screech!" "Screech!" "Screech!"

He didn't cut the colorful wires; those were the most basic traps! In a mere 0.5 seconds, his fingertips simultaneously flicked three identical, hair-thin fuse wires hidden beneath the circuit board three times in quick succession, at an incredible frequency and angle!

This is the only way to survive!

The detonation of the three fuses must be completed simultaneously within 0.01 seconds. Any slight error in the order, force, or angle will immediately trigger an explosion!

"drop--"

The red indicator light on the bomb, flashing with deathly light, suddenly froze, and then, to the astonishment of the guards, went out completely!

Alert! All clear!

"No...impossible!"

"What...what kind of monster is he?!"

At this moment, the worldview of all those who were guarding collapsed!

Lin Chen, having accomplished all this, seemed to have only completed a trivial task. He slowly stood up, looking down at the completely stunned guards below, a cold, death-like smile curving his lips.

He raised his hand, unscrewed a high-pressure hose from the gas canister next to him, and aimed it downwards.

"Now, it's your turn."

He opened the valve.

"Sizzle—!!!"

The dark green, deadly XT-7 nerve gas erupted like a flood, instantly engulfing the area below!

The screams didn't even last a second before they abruptly stopped.

After dealing with all the guards, Lin Chen jumped down from the pipe. He looked at the two canisters of deadly poison gas, a hint of disgust flashing in his eyes.

He walked over to a huge waste pool that was billowing white steam.

[Amazing Chemistry Knowledge] Unlocked!

He only needed to smell the odor emanating from the wastewater pool to instantly analyze its chemical composition—high concentration of strongly alkaline industrial wastewater.

Exactly!

Lin Chen turned the valves of both gas canisters to their maximum and aligned the nozzles with the waste liquid pool.

"Sizzle—"

When the highly toxic nerve gas came into contact with the strongly alkaline wastewater, a violent chemical neutralization reaction immediately occurred, releasing a large amount of harmless white smoke and bubbles.

A few minutes later, the highly toxic substance, enough to destroy the entire island's ecosystem, was completely neutralized by Lin Chen with ease.

He single-handedly nipped the resort's demise in the bud!

After doing all this, Lin Chen's gaze fell on a control terminal in the corner of the pump room, and a playful smile appeared on his lips.

"Alright, warm-up over."

"Siren, now it's my turn to fight back."
