Chapter 868 The most severe enemy in history
Under extreme pressure at the last second, McCarron miraculously completed the operation.
The metal disc on the outer layer of the nuclear bomb slowly pulled away, falling off piece by piece like a giant python shedding its skin, gradually revealing its true internal structure.
However, McAllen's face did not show any ecstasy of surviving the disaster.
Instead, there was a feeling of extreme confusion and disbelief——
What appeared before him was an empty, bare metal shell with nothing inside.
It wasn't a heroic feat at all where he saved the entire airport with his extreme hand speed - because from the beginning to the end, it was just a fake nuclear bomb in a terrifying shell!
"Oh my God..." McAllen let out a long, trembling breath.
Although it is fake, it is still ten thousand times better than facing a real nuclear bomb!
At the moment he bent the letter "K", his heart actually skipped a beat - his action was obviously later than the last second of the countdown.
But his extremely nervous brain automatically corrected this perception, making him "think" that he had succeeded.
"What's wrong?" Baijiu's voice remained surprisingly calm.
From beginning to end, he maintained unconditional trust in McAllen - or rather, in this desperate situation, he had no choice but to trust.
He couldn't just spend the last ten seconds like a crazy fan and cheer for McCarron through his headphones, right?
"It's empty..." McAllen's voice was filled with exhaustion and a hint of being teased.
"What?" The usually calm Old Black was also a little confused. "What do you mean by 'empty'?"
"I mean, there's nothing fucking in this nuclear bomb device!" McAllen elaborated.
He even used his signature vulgar metaphor, "Clean...cleaner than my ass!"
Baijiu was silent for half a second.
Immediately afterwards, an icy chill like a poisonous snake suddenly rushed up his spine and pierced into his brain!
Being experienced, he instantly understood the meaning of it all - this was all a carefully planned drama by the "Intelligent Body"!
This fake nuclear bomb is just to delay time and distract him so that he can't take care of other things!
as predicted!
Baijiu suddenly turned half sideways - behind him, the woman named Grace had disappeared without a trace!
His nerves were too tense and he was too focused on the situation on McAllen's side that he didn't even notice when she left!
He immediately searched all the pockets on his body where he could hide something.
Sure enough, the disguised lighter he had kept as a "souvenir" was stuffed back into his breast pocket.
He pulled out the shiny, cold lighter and told them the harsh reality through his headphones: "She stole the key."
"Which one?!" McAllen's eyes widened instantly.
"Ours." Baijiu's voice was cold. "The real one."
"What?!" Ever since hearing the word "nuclear bomb", Lao Hei's brows have never relaxed.
For them, the only "rear-viewing audience", bad news came one after another, each one more deadly than the other.
"Old Black, hurry! Find her!" The most difficult nuclear crisis was resolved, and Baijiu felt relieved. But another heavier stone pressed down on him. "She shouldn't have gotten far!"
Grace was moving quickly among the crowd in the airport lobby.
She looked back nervously from time to time, and at the same time covered the opening of her shoulder bag tightly with her hands, as if there were hot charcoal inside.
Although there were no suspicious passengers around, she remained extremely vigilant.
The psychological trauma left by liquor on her was too profound.
So much so that in her crazy imagination, the man might suddenly emerge from under the floor or hang upside down from the ceiling at any time!
Lao Hei's fingers tapped frantically on the keyboard, quickly mobilizing all the surveillance cameras in the airport to track Grace.
Half a second later, the screen locked onto the target: "Found it!"
"She is heading towards Terminal 5!" Lao Hei reported at a very fast speed, not wanting to waste even a second.
The moment Baijiu heard Laohei's voice, his body rushed out like an arrow!
However, just after taking a few steps, he suddenly braked and stopped dead in his tracks!
Directly in front of him, a man wearing sunglasses and a white suit was staring at him quietly with a meaningful and provocative smile.
Although the eyes were covered by sunglasses, Baijiu recognized this person at a glance - he was Rum who had defected from the organization not long ago!
Rum's mouth curled up into that familiar, disgusting sneer.
Then, under Baijiu's gaze, his figure disappeared from Baijiu's sight out of thin air, like ink blending into the air, or like dust blown away by the wind!
Baijiu hurriedly took off his sunglasses, blinked hard, and an expression of extreme confusion and bewilderment appeared on his face.
This is impossible! There are no superpowers in this world! The last person who could turn someone into dust and disappear was Thanos from the Marvel movies!
But the reality is so ridiculous! Baijiu absolutely believed his own eyes, but the facts were right in front of him—a living, breathing man evaporated right before his eyes!
"This is impossible..." Baijiu murmured in a low voice, the huge sense of absurdity impacting his cognition.
But he didn't stop and started again, but the direction of his advance completely changed -
He stopped chasing Grace and rushed towards the logistics channel where McAllen and Lao Hei were!
He bit his lip subconsciously, his brain working rapidly, and he had almost pieced together the truth: all of this was instigated by the "intelligent body" behind the scenes!
Everything they do now, every reaction of theirs, even their "success" and "failure", are scripts that have already been deduced by the intelligent body!
Whether it was the fake nuclear bomb, the stolen keys, or even Rum's strange appearance and disappearance... they were all part of the plan!
"What's wrong?" Lao Hei clearly heard Baijiu's unbelievable muttering because he had turned up the volume of Baijiu's audio channel to the maximum.
"MacAllan, Old Black." Baijiu's voice was terrifyingly calm. He made the final decision decisively. "Now, stop all actions."
"Everyone retreat."
Lao Hei was a little dazed on the other end of the headphones.
In his impression, Baijiu has never issued an order to "retreat".
But he didn't ask any further questions, nor did he dare to think about it too much.
Only when faced with an extreme crisis that is completely unstoppable and beyond comprehension will Baijiu order everyone to evacuate.
An opponent who could make an ultimate gambler, accustomed to dancing on the edge of a knife, choose to withdraw...
What a terrifying existence it is?
"Where are we going to meet?" Lao Hei asked.
"We won't be together anymore." Baijiu's voice was icy, with an unquestionable and mandatory tone of command, "This mission is completely terminated."
"No one is allowed to take any further action!"
"Now!"
"Try every possible means, as quickly as possible—"
"Get out of here quickly!"
