Chapter 78: A New Crisis

After Lynn and the team members returned to the village with the documents about the evil plan they found in the room, they didn't let down their guard. They knew that although they had defeated the mysterious old man, there might still be other remnants of the ancient evil organization lurking in the dark.

In the village, Lynn organized the team members to study the documents carefully. The documents recorded in detail some information about the ancient evil organization, including the location of their research base, the distribution of their members, and the plans that hadn't been carried out yet.

"According to these documents, they still have a hidden research base, which may contain more dangerous viruses and weapons," Lynn said, frowning. When the team members heard this, worried expressions appeared on their faces.

"We have to find this research base as soon as possible and destroy it. Otherwise, if those viruses and weapons fall into the wrong hands, the consequences will be unimaginable," a team member said. Everyone nodded in agreement.

Just as they were discussing how to find the research base, there was suddenly a commotion in the village. Lynn and the team members quickly ran out to check and found that some strange creatures were attacking the village. These creatures were short in stature and covered with green scales all over their bodies. Their eyes emitted a strange red light, and they made shrill cries from their mouths.

"What are these things?" a team member asked in surprise. Lynn observed them carefully and said, "These creatures may be test - subjects created by the ancient evil organization using viruses."

The team members immediately took out their weapons and prepared to fight these creatures. Lynn commanded, "Everyone, pay attention. These creatures are very agile. Find the right moment to attack."

At the beginning of the battle, those creatures rushed over like a tide. Their attacks were very fierce, and the team members could only dodge while looking for opportunities to fight back. During the battle, a team member accidentally got his arm scratched by a creature, and blood was flowing freely.

"Are you okay?" Lynn asked with concern. The team member gritted his teeth and said, "It's okay. This little injury doesn't matter." Then he continued to fight.

Lynn found that although there were a large number of these creatures, there seemed to be a lack of effective cooperation among them. "We can take advantage of this weakness and defeat them one by one," Lynn said. The team members followed Lynn's command and divided into several groups to attack different creatures respectively.

Under their attacks, some creatures were injured and their movements became slow. However, these creatures were very tenacious. Even when injured, they didn't retreat but attacked the team members more frantically.

Just when the battle was at a stalemate, Lynn suddenly noticed a red mark on the back of the creatures' necks. He guessed that this mark might be the key to controlling them. "Attack the red marks on the back of their necks!" Lynn shouted.

The team members adjusted their attack direction and concentrated on attacking the red marks on the back of the creatures' necks. Under their attacks, the red marks of some creatures were damaged, and their actions immediately became chaotic and they no longer followed the command.

"It's working! Keep attacking!" Lynn shouted excitedly. The team members attacked more vigorously. More and more creatures' red marks were damaged, and the situation in the village was gradually brought under control.

After a fierce battle, they finally defeated those strange creatures. The villagers expressed their gratitude to Lynn and the team members, and relieved smiles appeared on their faces.

However, Lynn knew that this was just a small episode, and the real crisis was still ahead. They had to find that hidden research base as soon as possible. According to the clues in the documents, the research base was located near an abandoned factory.

Lynn and the team members packed up their equipment and set off on the journey again. They followed the clues and came to the abandoned factory. The factory was filled with a pungent smell. The surrounding buildings were in ruins, and there were rusty machines and discarded parts everywhere.

"Everyone, be careful. There may be hidden dangers here," Lynn reminded. The team members walked into the factory carefully and suddenly heard a low - pitched buzzing sound. This sound was a bit similar to the one they heard in the cave passage.

"Could there also be dark energy here?" a team member asked. Lynn nodded and said, "It's very likely. Everyone, be more vigilant."

They continued to search in the factory and found some strange symbols. These symbols were a bit similar to the ones they saw on the cave wall. Lynn guessed that these symbols might be related to the location of the research base.

Just as they were studying these symbols, a group of black - clothed men suddenly rushed out of a nearby room. These black - clothed men held weapons in their hands and had cold looks in their eyes. It was obvious that they were well - trained killers.

"It seems that we've been discovered," Lynn said. A new battle was about to start. Could they successfully find the research base and destroy the dangerous items inside?
