Chapter 78: Contest in the Dark

The virus was spreading faster and faster. At the power grid control center, Zhang Wanqing stood in front of the command desk, her eyes firm and calm. She knew that cutting off the power supply was a difficult decision, but it was the only option to prevent the further spread of the virus.

The security team sprang into action, and they began to carry out Zhang Wanqing's orders. As the power was cut off, the last ray of light in the city disappeared, but this also gave them an opportunity to regain control of the city.

With the power cut off across the city, the once bustling and bustling city fell into a dead silence, plunging into darkness. The neon lights on the streets stopped flickering, the windows of the tall buildings lost their light, and the city was completely swallowed by darkness. People stood on the streets, looking up at the sky, trying to find a glimmer of comfort in the starlight. Children clung to their parents' hands, their eyes filled with fear and anxiety. The city's pulse seemed to have stopped beating, and everything had come to a standstill.

"Everyone, remain calm," Zhang Wanqing's voice echoed in the control center. "We will gradually restore power, but we must ensure safety at every step."

Her eyes swept across the large screen, monitoring every corner of the city. Her fingers slid lightly across the control panel, issuing one command after another. Despite her rapid heartbeat, her voice and movements revealed an unshakable determination.

On the other side of the city, Fu Siyuan sat in front of his computer, trying to crack the core code of the virus and find a way to completely remove it.

"I need more time," Fu Siyuan said with a hint of anxiety in his voice. "This virus is more complicated than I thought."

His eyes were fixed on the screen, where code flowed like a waterfall. He knew he had to find the virus's weakness, or the entire city would remain in darkness. Beads of sweat formed on his forehead, but his fingers remained steady and swift.

On the streets, Li Wei led his elite team and began organizing a rescue operation. They shuttled through the darkness, illuminating the entire street with emergency lights, directing traffic, and evacuating people from the streets. They held flashlights and emergency lights, guiding people to safety.

Their actions were swift and orderly, and although the darkness was full of uncertainty, their calmness and decisiveness gave people hope.

"Everyone stay calm, we are here," Li Wei's voice echoed through the streets. "We will protect you and take you to a safe place."

His team dispersed and groped in the darkness, looking for possible clues, but they soon discovered that the battle was much more difficult than they had imagined.

Time passed by second by second, and the three people were doing their work in different places. At the same time, the mayor also sent elite teams from transportation, medical care, sanitation, and emergency response to join their battle, ready to obey their orders at any time to ensure the safety of the people.

In the darkness of the city, the leader of the Men in Black organization refused to give up. His eyes gleamed with madness, and his fingers flicked across the console, issuing one command after another. He knew this was his last chance, and he had to stop Zhang Wanqing, Fu Siyuan, and Li Wei from restoring the city's power grid at all costs.

"Start the second phase of the plan," the leader's voice was low and threatening. "I want them to know that the fate of this city is in our hands."

His men moved quickly, their target being the key nodes of the city's power grid, ensuring that they could not be easily repaired. The men in black were divided into small groups, carrying advanced electronic jamming equipment and sabotage tools, moving silently through the city.

At this time, Li Wei led one of the elite teams. Their goal was to find the source of interference from the men in black and stop their destruction.

"Everyone stay alert," Li Wei's voice rang out over the communicator. "The men in black are nearby. We must find them and stop their actions."

His team dispersed, groping in the darkness, searching for possible clues.

At this moment, Fu Siyuan's voice came from Li Wei's communicator: "Li Wei, I have found the location of the interference source. You must act immediately."

Li Wei quickly led the team to the source of the interference.

At the power grid control center, Zhang Wanqing stood in front of the control desk, her eyes firm and calm. She knew that the men in black would not give up and would definitely take action to prevent the power grid from being restored.

"Everyone, be alert," Zhang Wanqing's voice echoed in the control center. "We must protect every key node to prevent sabotage by the men in black."

Her eyes swept across the large screen, monitoring every corner of the city. Her fingers slid lightly across the control panel, issuing one command after another. Although her heart was pounding like a drum, her voice and movements revealed an unshakable determination.

Suddenly, the alarm in the control center sounded, and the surveillance footage at several key locations suddenly disappeared. Zhang Wanqing's brow furrowed, knowing that the attack by the men in black had begun.

"Send the security team immediately," Zhang Wanqing quickly ordered, "We must protect these nodes and not let the men in black succeed."

The security team took quick action, carrying weapons and equipment and rushing to the key nodes. They knew that this was a race against time and they had to arrive as soon as possible to stop the destruction of the men in black.

Fu Siyuan was still sitting in front of his computer, his fingers tapping away at the keyboard. He was trying to track down the source of the men in black's electronic interference and find a way to stop their sabotage.

"I need more data," Fu Siyuan said with a hint of anxiety in his voice. "This interference source is more complicated than I thought."

His eyes were fixed on the screen; he had to find the weakness of the source of the interference.

Suddenly, a string of abnormal data streams appeared on his computer screen, and his heartbeat accelerated. He knew that this was the source of interference from the men in black. He quickly wrote code to try to track the location of the interference source.

"Found it!" There was a hint of excitement in Fu Siyuan's voice. He quickly sent the location of the interference source to Zhang Wanqing and Li Wei.

At a key node in the city's power grid, the security team sent by Zhang Wanqing engaged in a fierce exchange of fire with the men in black. The men in black seemed to have been prepared, and they set numerous traps around the node to try to prevent the security team from approaching.

Zhang Wanqing watched the battlefield nervously from the control center, a hint of worry in her eyes. She knew that the outcome of this battle depended on the well-being of the entire city.

"We must hold on," Zhang Wanqing's voice rang out over the communicator. "We can't let the men in black succeed."

The security team quickly adjusted their tactics, using the night and the city's buildings as cover to engage in a life-and-death battle with the men in black. Every shot they fired was powerful, and every dodge they made was clever.

The team led by Li Wei arrived at the source of the interference and found a group of men in black operating equipment, trying to continue interfering with the city's power grid. Li Wei quickly gave orders and the team immediately launched an assault.

"Action!" Li Wei's voice sounded in the communicator, with a hint of determination in his voice.

The team rushed towards the men in black, their movements were swift and decisive. The men in black were caught off guard by the sudden attack and tried to fight back, but Li Wei and his team had already gained the upper hand.

After a fierce firefight, the men in black were successfully repelled and the source of interference was successfully destroyed.
