UNDERGROUND FACTORY — COMMAND CENTER
Red alarms screamed, casting eerie glows over steel walls. The Council's command center, once a symbol of unshakable power, was now a battlefield.
Su Chen stood at the core terminal, fingers flying over the keyboard as the virus upload bar inched forward — taunting the Council with the inevitability of their downfall.
THE GUARDS CLOSE IN
Heavy footsteps thundered. Guards poured through the entrance like a tidal wave.
"Stop him!" one barked, voice raw with desperation.
But Su Chen was already a shadow — a blur weaving between bullets, dodging with supernatural grace.
Ghost Step active.
Every movement precise, every strike calculated.
CHEN LIANG'S LAST BET
From the shadows, Chen Liang appeared — calm, collected, the very image of control.
"You can't break us, Su Chen."
"You underestimate what I've lost."
Su Chen's voice was cold, razor-sharp.
"I've lost everything. That's why I win."
They clashed — steel against steel, wills against wills.
THE VIRUS SPREADS
On the screen, the progress bar reached 100%.
Council systems flickered — defenses crashed, secrets leaked, alliances shattered in real-time.
YUE LIN'S CHOICE
Suddenly, Yue Lin's voice echoed through the comm-link.
"Su Chen... if you want to end this, stop."
Conflicted, Su Chen hesitated — the past clawing back.
But Chen Liang smiled cruelly.
"She's your weakness."
THE TRUTH REVEALED
Suddenly, the system flashed a hidden message:
"Yue Lin's memories have been manipulated. The real traitor lies elsewhere."
Su Chen's eyes widened.
"Then who?"
ENDING SCENE
As the Council's empire crumbled, a new shadow emerged behind the scenes — watching, waiting.
"This war... is far from over."
