Ultra: Dragon Sword Journey

Just when the two sides were deadlocked in their speeches and the atmosphere was suffocatingly tense, suddenly, a deafening and rapid alarm sounded in the conference room. The sound was like a sharp sword piercing the sky, which was creepy.

"Oh no, the monitoring system has detected that a powerful dark force seems to be madly attacking the light barrier from the inside!" Ye Rui's anxious voice came through the communicator.

This piece of news was like a bombshell, instantly turning the faces of everyone in the conference room pale, and their already tense nerves were stretched to the limit.

Director Sawai stood up abruptly. He knew that this was a critical moment and decisively issued an order: "This is not the time for endless arguments. We must act immediately and check the specific situation first. Nori, turn over the relevant footage!"

After hearing the order, everyone did not dare to delay and turned their eyes to the big screen.

Soon, the footage transmitted by the surveillance satellite appeared on the large screen. The seemingly indestructible light barrier was actually rippling violently, like a boulder dropped into a calm lake.

"It seems that the dark giant tried to break through the light barrier set up by Youlian from the inside, but was met with a strong counterattack and was bounced back. It is still unknown how long the power of this barrier can last." Zhao Ming stared at the screen and analyzed with a serious expression.

Director Sawai acted decisively and quickly issued an order: "Order the Victory Team and the Police Department to step up their alert. If they find any signs of the black fog escaping the light barrier, they must take countermeasures without hesitation!"

"Understood!" Zongfang nodded vigorously and responded. Then he turned around and began to convey orders and organize deployment work.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the spacious and bright conference room reached a fever pitch. A heated debate ensued over how to respond to the current crisis, yet Zhao Ming remained silent.

He sat quietly in his chair, his posture erect as a pine tree, motionless. His eyes, deep as the ocean, silently gazed upon the group of people in the conference room, their faces flushed with excitement and arguing. His gaze was focused and piercing, seemingly able to penetrate all appearances and reach the essence of things.

It was clear that Zhao Ming was contemplating something far more profound and complex than anyone else had imagined. This time, he was determined to leverage the immense power of the Dark Three to teach the TPC members, who had long coveted the power of the Titans, a lesson they would never forget.

As the situation at the Luluye Ruins escalated, some people in the conference room began to grow restless. Their faces turned pale as paper, cold sweat streamed down their foreheads, and their eyes revealed an unconcealable panic and anxiety.

Faced with such a serious situation, these people could no longer remain calm and began to shirk responsibility desperately, trying to blame all the faults on others.

Because everyone knows very well that if this matter cannot be handled properly, if the same mistake as when the black fog energy of Gatanjea covered the entire surface of the atmosphere is repeated, the consequences will be unimaginable!

And this time, the situation might be even worse than last time—it's not Gatanjea who's actively seeking to destroy human civilization, but rather some self-righteous fool who accidentally awakened the dormant dark forces. And then the responsibility will be yours...

"The only feasible way right now is to completely destroy the Luluye ruins and wipe out the monsters hidden inside in one fell swoop!" Director Ji Gang said as he vigorously tapped the small and exquisite folding fan in his hand to emphasize the importance of his point of view.

Staff Officer Nanyuan on the side quickly nodded in agreement, "That's right. If we allow those Zoga to fly out of the ruins in droves, we will inevitably suffer extremely heavy casualties and property losses. Therefore, the top priority is to take action as soon as possible!"

"Before that, we must prepare a response plan! Tiga is gone now, and this situation was indeed caused by us, TPC. We must keep casualties to a minimum." Director Sawai issued a strict order.

"Understood!" Voices of the crowd rang out in the conference room.

"It's over..." The staff officer Nan Yun, who had been so arrogant before, was now panic-stricken and slumped down on the chair. He had already anticipated his own end. Disobeying orders and acting on his own was enough to make him the target of public criticism!

Just as everyone was nervously discussing countermeasures, Zhao Ming suddenly stood up. "I have a good suggestion."

Everyone's eyes turned to him. "We can try to use some of the power in the ruins to strengthen the light barrier instead of destroying it directly."

"How is this possible? There are dangerous things in there." Staff Officer Nanyun shouted.

Zhao Ming glanced at him with disdain. "If we can maintain the power source within the barrier, we might succeed. I've been researching the remaining technologies of ultra-ancient civilizations, and perhaps there's a way to do it."

Director Sawai pondered for a moment and said, "It's worth a try, but the risk is huge. How confident are you?" He knew that Zhao Ming was capable of handling it, but he just didn't want to bother with some guys who liked to court death and still talk back.

"Sixty percent." Zhao Ming answered firmly.

"Sixty percent? That's not high." Staff Officer Nanyuan frowned.

"But it's better than rushing in and dying or letting the dark forces break through the barrier and wreak havoc." Zhao Ming retorted.

Vice Captain Zong Fang stood up in support, "I believe in Zhao Ming's judgment. There is no better choice at the moment."

After weighing the pros and cons, Director Sawai finally gave the order, "Okay, Zhao Ming, let's proceed according to your plan. The members of the Victory Team will be responsible for fully assisting Zhao Ming. Chief of Staff Nanyun hopes that you will take this opportunity to make up for your previous mistakes."

Although Nan Yun was reluctant, he had no choice but to agree, and everyone began to prepare for this risky plan.

The TPC's high-level meeting finally came to a successful conclusion. As the final announcement of the adjournment rang out like a loud bell, Zhao Ming, Iruma Kei, and Munekata relaxed their frowns as if relieved. With brisk and slightly anxious steps, they rushed towards the Victory Team's operations room like an arrow from a bow.

The moment they stepped into the war room, the previously quiet place was instantly overwhelmed with joy. Daiko and Lina were preoccupied with their respective tasks, but when their eyes met that familiar figure, their faces blossomed like flowers illuminated by the morning light, their faces simultaneously breaking into ecstatic smiles. It had been a long two years since they last saw the captain.

Iruma Hui took the lead and quickly stepped forward. Tears sparkled in her eyes, like two bright stars. She stretched out her hands and tightly grasped Daigu and Lina's hands. Her voice trembled slightly as she said, "Long time no see, Daigu, Lina! I didn't expect to see you again."

This exploration of the Luluye ruins was a life-or-death experience for Hui Jujian. If Zhao Ming had not appeared in time, he would have almost lost his life on that strange land.

Daigu and Lina were also overwhelmed with excitement. They shook hands firmly with Iruma Kei and responded in unison, "Yes, long time no see! Captain, are you all doing well lately? We miss you like a torrent of water, endless!"

"Look! He's just flattering us." After hearing this, the other team members in the command room put down their work and quickly gathered around like a tide, tightly surrounding Daigu, Lina, Iruma Kei and others.

All the members of the Victory Team finally gathered together. For a moment, laughter and joy filled the entire operations room like a passionate symphony, and everyone asked each other about their recent situation.

Jujing and Xincheng couldn't wait to share their interesting work experiences during their stay at TPC headquarters, sometimes making everyone laugh and sometimes making everyone laugh;

Nori, Dagu and Lina vividly recounted their pleasant travels around the world over the past two years. Every wonderful moment seemed to be vivid in their minds, and was constantly played in front of everyone like a movie, making everyone present fascinated.
