Hardly had the man with gold-rimmed glasses finished speaking when dozens of bodyguards pounced on him like wolves and tigers. Chen Mo and Zhao Jianfeng went back to back, drawing their guns and shooting. Bullets roared in the empty hall, and the marble floor was scattered with debris. Zhao Jianfeng was unfortunately shot in his left arm, and blood instantly stained his sleeve red, but he gritted his teeth and continued to fight.
"Retreat to the stairwell!" Chen Mo shouted loudly, and the two of them fought and retreated simultaneously. When they retreated to the stairwell, they found that the iron door of the stairwell had been locked and a line of red words was flashing on the electronic screen: "Intruder, a dead end." Zhao Jianfeng smashed the electronic lock with the butt of his gun, but in vain.
Just at this critical moment, a large hole suddenly broke through the ceiling of the foundation, ropes hung down, and several people in black combat suits slid down along the ropes. They moved nimbly and instantly joined the battle, helping Chen Mo and Zhao Jianfeng repel the bodyguards. At the head was a tall woman. She took off her gas mask and revealed a cold and beautiful face: "Officer Chen, Captain Zhao, we are here to help you."
Chen Mo looked at her warily and asked, "Who are you?" Why help us? The woman smiled slightly and said, "My name is Lin Wei and I'm a member of the Justice League." We have been secretly investigating "Prometheus". This time, upon learning that you are in danger, we have come especially to offer our help. Saying that, she took out a USB flash drive and said, "Here are some of the evidence we have collected. Maybe it will be useful to you."
Chen Mo took the USB drive. Although he had doubts in his heart, at this moment, he could only choose to believe. Lin Wei led them out of the foundation building through a secret passage. In a safe house, Lin Wei disclosed more information about "Prometheus" to them. It turns out that the goal of this organization is to achieve control over the entire city or even a larger area by controlling political, economic and social resources, and the "Morning Star Charity Foundation" is just one part of their grand plan.
Lin Wei also told them that "Prometheus" was preparing a project called the "Dawn Project". The specific content was still unclear, but it was certain that once this project was implemented, it would bring about a huge disaster. Chen Mo and Zhao Jianfeng realized that they had to stop the "Dawn Project" as soon as possible.
After analysis, they believe that the breakthrough might lie in the high-level meeting of "Prometheus". Lin Wei said that she had a way to get the time and place of the high-level meeting. Three days later, Lin Wei brought the definite news: "Prometheus" will hold a high-level meeting tonight at an estate on the outskirts of Jiangcheng City, and all the core members of the organization will be present at that time.
Chen Mo, Zhao Jianfeng and Lin Wei have formulated a detailed action plan. They are preparing to sneak into the manor, obtain the relevant materials of the "Dawn Project", and catch all the "Prometheus" high-ranking officials present. However, when they reached the vicinity of the manor, they found that the area around the manor was heavily guarded. There were not only armed guards but also drones patrolling in the air.
They carefully avoided the guards and, taking advantage of the cover of the terrain, slowly approached the manor. Just as they were about to sneak into the manor, they suddenly heard a burst of gunshots. The manor was ablaze with flames, clearly indicating that a conflict had occurred. Chen Mo's heart tightened. Had the plan already been leaked?
They sped up and rushed into the manor. The scene before them shocked them greatly. The manor was filled with corpses everywhere, including the guards of "Prometheus" and some strange men in black. In the hall of the manor, a man wearing a black mask was standing in the center, surrounded by a group of wounded "Prometheus" high-ranking officials.
You've finally come. The masked man turned around, his voice deep and cold. "The 'Dawn Project' has been launched. You won't have time." Chen Mo clenched his fists and asked, "Who on earth are you?" The masked man let out a wild laugh: "It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that you are about to witness the arrival of a new era."
Before the words had even finished, the masked man pressed the remote control in his hand. The ground of the manor began to shake violently, and a huge basement rose slowly. Chen Mo and the others took a closer look and found that the basement was filled with countless boxes, each marked with the words "Biochemical Weapons".
