Zhao Liben's gaze swept across the battlefield, nodding in satisfaction as he watched the Investigation Bureau personnel struggling to hold on. Except for Wang Xishu prematurely triggering the plan due to incompetence, tonight's attack plan has gone smoothly thus far. The response speed of the Investigation Bureau and prison resistance was quicker and stronger than expected, but it was all within anticipation.

Turning back to the occupied Teleportation Array, where God Desire members continued to emerge, he waited for the last batch to be transported. Once done, he could confine the space, confident that with the help of these modified humans, he could easily clear the Secret Prison's resistance forces.

Thinking about this, he glanced at the modified humans continually streaming out of Jiezhi Space, feeling a pang of remorse in his heart. Nearly nine hundred people! Over nine hundred lives. Zhao Liben, ruthless as he was, couldn't shake the memory of the painful and resentful eyes he encountered while observing the modification injections.

Due to stringent domestic inspections, such a large-scale disappearance would certainly attract the government's attention. Thus, most of these modified humans were foreign workers abducted through deception, and a few retired military personnel kidnapped from domestic and neighboring countries.

Now, Zhao Liben could only console his not-yet-completely-extinguished conscience with the fact that most of these were not his compatriots.

"Old Zhao, our people are mostly in place; we can start!" While Zhao Liben was lost in his thoughts, Du Guangyuan quietly reminded him, and next to Du Guangyuan was a grey-haired young man, lounging in a soft chair, casually watching everything happening in the area.

Zhao Liben glanced at Du Guangyuan, then at the young man. Although unfamiliar with his background, the respect Du Guangyuan—a cunning old fox—showed towards him, combined with the organization's consent to include him in the battle, suggested he wasn't just any ordinary person.

He then turned back to the Teleportation Array behind, which had ceased to light up, checking his watch. From the start of the attack until now, precisely twenty minutes had passed, all going according to plan. Now was the time to block the spatial teleportation to prevent further support from the Investigation Bureau!

"Prepare to block the spatial teleportation!" Zhao Liben lowered his arm and commanded loudly, as two teams dispersed behind him—one to unfold the pre-arranged array maps, the other quickly operated a laptop and several precision instruments.

"How is it? Can we establish contact?" Zhao Liben asked anxiously, knowing that successfully deploying the confinement array determined the mission's success!

"We can! We've activated the dormant nanomechanical insects, which have broken through the skin per our instructions and flown to the designated positions, ready to block spatial teleportation!" An excited God Desire member pointed to the light spots on the screen in front of the laptop and answered.

"Activate them now! Immediately!"

Under Zhao Liben's expectant gaze, the God Desire member beside him followed the pre-training procedures and activated the array map. In an instant, a dazzling light flashed in front of everyone.

"Did it succeed?" Even the composed Du Guangyuan couldn't hide his anxiety and leaned in to ask.

"Speak up!" Zhao Liben barked at his pale-faced underlings kneeling on the ground.

A God Desire member, nervously trembling, said: "Failed, the array inside did not respond!"

Feeling a tinge of unease, Zhao Liben pointed at the array map, unwilling to give in, and urged: "How could it fail? Try again!"

After several attempts, seeing no reaction from the array map, an infuriated Zhao Liben kicked it away, cursed: "Damn it! It failed at the crucial moment!"

Then he looked toward the Investigation Bureau's faltering defensive line, hardened his heart, and shouted loudly: "Charge in, seize the Secret Prison as quickly as possible!"

Under his command, over four hundred superpowers among the assembly mixed with modified humans rushed into battle.

With this additional force, the pressure on the Investigation Bureau and the prison guards sharply increased, and several critical points were about to be breached by the enemy. Just as Zhao Liben's sullen face began to improve, the side doors of the Secret Prison building complex burst open with a bang, and troops in military uniforms from both sides charged into the crowd like blades, suddenly turning the favorable situation upside down.

"Superpower Special Forces? How did they arrive so quickly! I clearly controlled the three Teleportation Arrays responsible for transferring. Even if there were backup arrays in the prison, they couldn't have arrived this fast!" Zhao Liben shouted hoarsely, cold sweat pouring down his forehead.

"Don't you get it! We've walked right into their trap! This damn place was already prepped for an ambush!" Du Guangyuan shed his refined facade and cursed softly.

Panicked, Zhao Liben asked hurriedly: "Elder Du, what do we do now? Retreat?"

"Retreat? How? All our people are caught up. Over four hundred can't escape! Besides, if they've set a trap, they'll surely be prepared, and if we just leave without a fight, abandoning over four hundred, you think the organization will spare us?"

"So what now, we can't just throw our lives away here?"

Du Guangyuan sneered at Zhao Liben's panic, admonishing: "Calm down! Now's the time to fight back. Even if it doesn't work, at least we'll have something to report back! Moreover, don't we still have our trump card?"

Du Guangyuan then turned to the grey-haired young man and the two figures behind him hiding in black robes, respectfully bowing and saying: "Sirs, it's time to go all out!"

The young man sitting in the chair turned to glance at the two motionless black-robed figures and chuckled, remarking: "Haven't they sent their experts either? You don't expect us to deal with these trash, do you? If God Desire can't handle this much, I don't see the need for cooperation!"

Both Du Guangyuan and Zhao Liben's expressions darkened at his words. Du Guangyuan nodded and smiled, replying: "The master is right!" then motioned to Zhao Liben, saying seriously: "Use it!"

Though surprised at Du Guangyuan calling the young man 'master', Zhao Liben didn't have time to ask, quickly pulling another piece of Jiezhi Space from his pocket and tossing it to the ground, making a gesture inviting twelve cultivators in strange attire with black spheres in their hands appear.

Meanwhile, the battlefield had turned chaotic, with attacks flying wildly. Wang Wenze, transformed into Guan Gong, sliced a modified human, and over ten black wolves burst from his body, seizing the opportunity to bite a God Desire member's shoulder. Before he could scream, dozens of vicious wolves pounced simultaneously, tearing him into shreds in an instant.

Seeing this, his companion's eyes turned red, about to help, but his feet rooted firmly on the ground. Looking down, he found countless vines had entwined his legs, and surveying around, he saw a woman tightly watching him amidst the crowd.

Enraged and horrified, he raised his right hand as a mass of yellow liquid condensed in his palm. But before he could launch it, a gust swung a long blade through his chest from behind.

Drawing the blade out and kicking the corpse aside, ignoring the smoke from the liquid scorching the ground, Pei Yan smiled and gestured an OK sign to Xue Buli among the crowd.
