The Crucial Moment Where Every Second Counted

In that instant, an extremely oppressive silence filled the entire terminal room.

Alisa's words moved Fang Li deeply, and he finally understood.

"No wonder it was this captain who kept in touch with us from beginning to end. It turns out that this captain is the core of the secret hidden deep within the Russian Branch."

"The Eros Project —while its details are unknown, it is undoubtedly centered around 'α', as mentioned in the documents."

"So, this 'α' must be the 'one' the captain mentioned earlier."

"Furthermore, this 'α' has an extremely important connection with Aphrodite."

At this moment, all sorts of guesses began to flash through Fang Li's mind, making Fang Li understand many things.

There is only one mystery left.

That is the true nature of "α".

Fang Li immediately began searching for keywords such as "α" and "Eros Project".

However, it wasn't long before Fang Li couldn't continue.

"Beep—beep—beep—beep—!"

A red warning window suddenly flashed on the terminal screen connected to the touch panel, causing all the alarm lights in the terminal room to turn on.

Fang Li and Alisa were both startled and reacted immediately.

"Oh no!" Alisa exclaimed, caught off guard. "We've been discovered!"

Even without Alisa's reminder, Fang Li understood the current situation.

"I told you, it's just a touch screen panel. Even if the Far East Branch developed a sophisticated instrument specifically for this purpose, it would be impossible to keep it a secret from them from beginning to end."

After all, the Russian Branch is no less capable than the Far East Branch.

"What do we do now?" Alisa asked Fang Li, trying to calm herself down. "We've been exposed, and a large force will be coming here soon."

"It's really similar to the last situation." Fang Li chuckled as he unplugged the touchscreen panel's cable and said, "Never mind, let's head straight to our destination before they realize what's going on. This time it's different from last time. If we retreat, we'll never have another chance to find out what happened."

The army of Aragami has already reached the gates of the Russian Branch.

This incident is also coming to an end.

Regardless, this is the last chance.

Therefore, Fang Li decided to go all in.

"Let's go directly to 'α'."

Through the deciphered classified documents, Fang Li learned that the location where the captain had previously stationed a large number of soldiers to guard "α" was just a fake location.

By spreading rumors to keep outsiders at a distance from "α", and then secretly arranging another real location, using the Matoba soldiers were stationed as a trap, it must be said that the captain was indeed very careful.

If Alisa hadn't been there, Fang Li might have tried to go directly to the location of "α" that he had learned during the previous operational meeting, thus falling into this trap.

Therefore, Fang Li was lucky this time.

At least, Fang Li has learned the true location of "α".

Upon learning of Fang Li's plan, Alisa said, "However, with the alarm activated, the door will be locked, and we won't be able to get out."

"Can't get out?" Fang Li laughed and said this.

"Have you forgotten how I escaped from this situation last time?"

After saying that, Fang Li went to the door, tightened his grip, and the Moon Blade immediately appeared in his hand.

Lifting his eyelids, his eyes transformed into Ice-Blue Demon Eyes, gazing at the heavy gate.

The next second, the Moon Blade in Fang Li's hand transformed into a cold, sharp light, crisscrossing like a storm, fiercely slashing towards the door in front of him.

"Bang—!"

With a muffled thud, the heavy automatic door was mercilessly sliced into countless pieces, kicked open with a heavy foot, and turned into rubble.

Fang Li and Alisa came out of the terminal room, only to hear a jumble of footsteps.

Clearly, the Russian Branch of soldiers has arrived.

Before Fang Li could react, Alisa immediately spoke up.

"Go find 'α', leave this to me."

"What?" Fang Li was stunned.

"If you were alone, with your amazing speed and incredible skills, you would definitely find 'α' as quickly as possible. Having me with you would only slow you down." Alisa looked directly at Fang Li, her expression more serious than ever before, and said, "Therefore, I'll leave the search for 'α' to you. I'll handle things here."

"But are you alright?" Fang Li couldn't help but ask, "You were the one who turned on the terminal just now. They must have already locked onto your bracelet's signal and know that the terminal hacking is related to you. It will be difficult for you to get away with it like before."

"I have a way of handling this." Alisa shook her head and said without wavering, "In short, leave this to me. You just need to do your job."

Upon hearing this, Fang Li really didn't know what to say.

Looking at Alisa's eyes and expression, which were filled with strong will, Fang Li closed his eyes for a moment, and when he opened them again, he had regained his composure.

"Okay, I'll leave this to you."

Leaving behind those words, Fang Li's figure suddenly flashed and completely disappeared from the spot.

Seeing this, Alisa slowly revealed a very rare smile, turned around, and faced forward.

There, troops armed with machine guns had arrived.

In the technologically advanced corridor, Fang Li's figure completely transformed into a blurry black shadow, rushing forward like a gust of wind.

Alisa's judgment was correct.

If Alisa keeps following Fang Li, it will take a lot of time to reach the destination in order to keep up with Alisa's speed.

However, once Fang Li is allowed to travel alone, his speed is astonishing.

Fang Li was already very fast.

Now that he has mastered the Flash Run skill from the Seven Nights Assassination Technique, Fang Li's speed has not only reached a new level, but his movements have also become unpredictable, making him impossible to stop.

Even as soldiers armed with machine guns approached, Fang Li transformed into a spider before they could spot him. He scrambled up the walls and ceiling of the corridor, leaping over the heads of a group of soldiers in a few bounds without being detected, and his speed never slowed down.

Therefore, a few minutes later, Fang Li arrived at his destination without incident.

Fang Li a door at the end of the corridor and rushed towards it.
