After the pursuit on Messiah Island ended, Li Ming and Ayako briefly repaired themselves in an underground shelter hidden somewhere in the north.
This military relic buried deep in the mountains is like a corner forgotten by time. The ancient stone walls were covered with moss, and the humid air was filled with an old smell. This was once a secret spot carefully arranged by Li Ming during many years of operations. It had enough weapons and resources for the two of them to take a breather.
Li Ming and Ayako walked into the shelter tiredly, their figures looking a little stooped in the dim light. Li Ming had a few shallow scars on his face, which were marks left by the battle. There was a hint of exhaustion in his eyes, but more importantly, determination and vigilance. Ayako's hair was a little messy, her eyes were full of worry, and she held a pistol tightly in her hand, as if it was her only support.
"Finally I can take a rest." Ayako said softly, with a hint of exhaustion in her voice.
Li Ming didn't speak. He just looked at the surrounding environment silently, his heart full of vigilance. He knew that although they temporarily escaped the enemy's pursuit, the danger was not far away.
Various weapons and equipment are placed in the shelter. Maps and action plans hung on the walls, and the desks were piled high with documents and communications equipment. Although it is simple here, it gives people a sense of security.
Li Ming walked to a table, picked up a document, and read it carefully. The files recorded the data they brought from the Messiah Island laboratory. Those complicated genetic maps and experimental records made him frown tightly.
"After recombination, these gene sequences can greatly improve human body functions, but the side effects are extremely severe." Ayako said in a low voice. She held a lab report in her hand, and there was anger in her tone.
Ayako's eyes were filled with anger towards the Freemasons. She could not imagine that these people could treat humans so cruelly. Her fingers squeezed the report tightly, as if she wanted to crush it.
"Not only are they experimenting on living people, they are also creating so-called 'reformed warriors.'" Ayako continued, her voice full of disgust.
"Victor is just the tip of the iceberg." Li Ming spoke slowly. His eyes were as cold as ice, as if they could freeze the air around him.
Victor's cold smile appeared in Li Ming's mind, and he knew that this man was just a small role in the massive plan of the Freemasons. His eyes fell on the document, and his heart was filled with worry.
"From these data, we can see that the real plan of Freemasonry is far more profound than we imagined. The core of the 'Gene of God' plan is Yingxue Qianying." Li Ming's voice was low and powerful, as if he was telling a heavy story secret.
"Sakura Snow Chikage?" Ayako was stunned for a moment. Her eyes were full of doubts, as if she was unfamiliar with the name.
Then, Ayako suddenly realized. A trace of surprise flashed in her eyes, as if she understood something.
"You mean she is not only the experimental subject, but also the leader?" Ayako asked, her voice full of doubt.
Li Ming nodded, his tone low. His eyes were full of complex emotions towards Ying Xue Qianying, with both vigilance and a hint of curiosity.
"Her genetic sequence is the prototype of the project. Victor and the Freemasons used her to make a series of modified warriors. If the document is true, she may have completed genetic evolution herself." Li Ming said, his voice full of worry .
Ayako clenched the document in her hand and frowned slightly. Her eyes were full of thinking, as if she was trying to understand this complicated situation.
"Then what is she pursuing? Why would she participate in such a thing?" Ayako asked, her voice full of doubts.
Li Ming was silent for a few seconds, then turned to look at the map on the wall. The map is marked with various locations and action plans, which is a road map for their fight against Freemasonry.
"Yingxue Qianying is not just a chess piece. Her purpose is far more unfathomable than what we can see." Li Ming said, his voice full of vigilance.
Just as the two were lost in thought, the alarm in the shelter suddenly sounded. The harsh sound echoed in the narrow space, as if it was the announcement of death. The warning light rotated overhead, and the red light reflected on the wall, as if blood had smeared the entire room.
"There is an intruder!" Ayako quickly pulled out her pistol, rushed to the monitor screen, and locked her eyes on the picture on the screen. Her eyes were full of vigilance, and she held the gun tightly in her hand.
Surveillance showed that the shelter's external defense system was easily breached. A familiar figure appeared in front of the entrance. She was wearing a silver-white combat uniform, without any weapons in her hands, and her eyes were as cold as a knife.
"It's her..." Li Ming's voice was low and alert, his eyes fixed on the figure on the screen. His eyes were full of vigilance, as if he saw a powerful enemy.
Ayako turned around in shock. Her eyes were full of surprise and fear, as if she had seen an incredible sight.
"Sakura Chikage?! She dares to come alone?" Ayako asked, her voice full of doubt.
"She doesn't need anyone else." Li Ming stood up slowly and put the communicator on his waist, with a cold murderous intent flashing in his eyes. His eyes were full of vigilance, as if he was preparing for a fierce battle.
"She is dangerous enough by herself." Li Ming said, his voice full of vigilance towards Ying Xue Qianying.
The outer door of the shelter was slowly pushed open, and a biting cold wind poured in, bringing with it an invisible sense of oppression. The cold wind seemed to be the breath of death, making people shudder.
Yingxue Qianying stood outside the door, her silver hair fluttering in the wind, her eyes cold and a little playful. Her figure looked particularly lonely in the cold wind, as if she were a messenger from hell.
She looked up at the surveillance camera, raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and her voice came clearly through the loudspeaker.
"Li Ming, I guess you won't keep me waiting, right?" Yingxue Qianying's voice was full of confidence and provocation, as if she had taken control of everything.
"It is indeed her." Ayako cursed in a low voice and held the pistol tightly. Her eyes were full of vigilance, as if she was ready to shoot at any moment.
"How did she know this place? Are we exposed?" Ayako asked, her voice full of worry.
Li Ming responded calmly. His eyes were full of thinking, as if he was analyzing the situation.
"She didn't make any guesses. She deliberately led us here. Victor was the bait, and she was the real trap." Li Ming said, his voice full of vigilance.
Ayako had doubts in her eyes. Her eyes were full of thinking, as if she was trying to understand this complicated situation.
"Then what should we do? Fight or retreat?" Ayako asked, her voice full of worry.
Li Ming did not answer, but pulled out the pistol from his waist and pushed open the inner door connected to the command room. His eyes were full of firmness and determination, as if he was preparing for a fierce battle.
"Retreat? I have been waiting for this moment for too long." Li Ming said, his voice full of confidence and provocation.
Ayako was startled, then followed his pace. Her eyes were full of trust and determination, as if she was ready to face this powerful enemy with Li Ming. "Are you sure you want to confront her head-on?" Ayako asked, her voice full of worry.
"She's not here to fight." Li Ming's eyes were complicated and his tone was cold. His eyes were full of thinking, as if he was analyzing Yingxue Qianying's purpose.
"She is here to tell the truth." Li Ming said, his voice full of vigilance.
Fateful confrontation
When Li Ming walked out of the middle hall of the shelter, Yingxue Qianying was standing in the middle of the hall, like a cold statue. Her figure looked particularly lonely in the dim light, as if she was a person forgotten by the world.
With a look in her eyes that was mixed with contempt and curiosity, she looked at Li Ming, who was slowly approaching, as if everything was under her control. Her eyes were full of confidence and defiance, as if she had everything under control.
"Li Ming," she said softly, her voice echoing in the empty hall. The voice seemed like a call from hell, making people shudder.
"Finally I see you." Sakura Snow Qianying's voice was full of confidence and provocation, as if she had been waiting for a long time.
"You are very brave, coming here alone." Li Ming's voice was as cold as a blade, and the gun in his hand was pointed steadily at her. His eyes were full of vigilance, as if he was ready to shoot at any moment.
"Tell me, what do you want to do?" Li Ming asked, his voice full of vigilance and suspicion.

Yingxue Qianying smiled slightly and her eyes fell on Li Ming. Her eyes were full of confidence and defiance, as if she had everything under control.
"If I said I was here to help you, would you believe it?" Qianying Yingxue asked, her voice full of confidence and provocation.
"Help me?" Li Ming sneered and tightened his fingers slightly. His eyes were full of suspicion and vigilance, as if he didn't believe what Ying Xue Qianying said.
"A person who has caused countless killings with his own hands will come to help me?" Li Ming asked, his voice full of suspicion and vigilance.
Yingxue Qianying didn't pay attention to his taunt, but raised her head and looked directly at him. Her eyes were full of determination and confidence, as if her words were true.
"Li Ming, your mother died because of Freemasonry. You have been looking for the truth, but what you found is only the surface. I am here to tell you the whole truth." Yingxue Qianying said, with a hint of laughter in her voice. Full of confidence and provocation.
"That's enough!" Li Ming interrupted sharply, with a flash of pain in his eyes. His eyes were full of pain and anger, as if Ying Xue Qianying's words had touched the pain in his heart.
"Don't use my mother as a cover, you have no idea -" Li Ming said, his voice full of anger and pain.
"I know." Yingxue Qianying said calmly, with determination in her tone. Her eyes were full of confidence and defiance, as if she already knew everything.
"She did not die due to mission failure, nor was it the betrayal you think, but because of... you." Sakura Snow Qianying said, her voice full of confidence and provocation.
This sentence was like a thunderbolt, hitting Li Ming hard. His hands trembled slightly, shock and anger flashed in his eyes. His eyes were full of pain and anger, as if Ying Xue Qianying's words had touched the pain in his heart.
"You're talking nonsense!" Li Ming said, his voice full of anger and pain.
"The final experiment of Freemasonry is not aimed at her, but at you." Yingxue Qianying slowly approached, with a hint of coldness in her tone. Her eyes were full of confidence and defiance, as if she already knew everything.
"The power you have is not innate, but given deliberately by them. The reason why she died was to save you from their control." Yingxue Qianying said, her voice full of confidence and provocation.
The atmosphere in the hall became extremely solemn, Li Ming's breathing became rapid, and the veins on his forehead beat slightly. His eyes were full of pain and anger, as if Ying Xue Qianying's words had touched the pain in his heart.
"This is impossible..." Li Ming said, his voice full of doubt and pain.
Yingxue Qianying stopped and sighed softly. Her eyes were full of helplessness and sympathy, as if she understood Li Ming's pain.
"Believe it or not, but the truth is right in front of you. You always thought you were chasing me, but the real enemy is the organization that makes us enemies of each other." Yingxue Qianying said, her voice full of confidence and provocation.
"That's enough!" Li Ming roared, raising his gun and aiming at Yingxue Qianying, but he still didn't pull the trigger. His eyes were full of pain and anger, as if Ying Xue Qianying's words had touched the pain in his heart.
Yingxue Qianying looked at him, the smile on her face gradually faded, and there was a hint of complexity in her eyes. Her eyes were full of helplessness and sympathy, as if she understood Li Ming's pain.
"Li Ming, I'll give you a choice. Continue to hunt me down, or join forces with me to completely overthrow the Freemasonry." Yingxue Qianying said, her voice full of confidence and provocation.
Her words were like an unsolvable problem. Li Ming's heart was turned upside down, while Ayako witnessed all this not far away, and her heart was also full of questions and shakes. Her eyes were full of thinking, as if she was trying to understand this complicated situation.
There was a strong sense of tension in the air, as if every second could trigger an explosive confrontation. However, in the end, Li Ming took a deep breath and spoke coldly.
"Leave your life until I confirm the truth." Li Ming said, his voice full of firmness and determination.
Yingxue Qianying smiled slightly, turned and walked towards the door, leaving a sentence.
"I hope you won't regret this decision, Li Ming." Yingxue Qianying said, her voice full of confidence and provocation.
"I hope you won't regret this decision, Li Ming." Yingxue Qianying said, her voice full of confidence and provocation.
"I hope you won't regret this decision, Li Ming." Yingxue Qianying said, her voice full of confidence and provocation.
"I hope you won't regret this decision, Li Ming." Yingxue Qianying said, her voice full of confidence and provocation.
With her departure, the shelter returned to calm again, but Li Ming's heart was filled with huge waves. (End of chapter)
