A bed that traverses countless worlds

Chapter 179 Traitor's Plot, Breaking the Stalemate

Inside the ruins, it was dark and deep, and the air was filled with an ancient and mysterious atmosphere.

Lin Yu held his breath and moved forward cautiously, each step feeling as light as walking on cotton.

He knew that time was of the essence, and that every second wasted could plunge the ruins into utter ruin.

Sweat beaded on his forehead, soaking his clothes; the tense atmosphere made it almost impossible for him to breathe.

"Damn it, what's going on?" Lin Yu examined the energy nodes, his face terribly grim.

The unusual fluctuations in energy output convinced him that something unknown must have happened here.

Suddenly, a faint sound broke the silence of the ruins.

Lin Yu turned around abruptly, his eyes sharp as a hawk's, staring intently in the direction from which the sound came.

"Who's there?" Lin Yu shouted in a low voice, his hand already gripping his weapon tightly.

In the darkness, a figure slowly emerged—it was Jack!

"Jack? It's you! What are you doing?" Lin Yu was startled, and an ominous premonition surged into his heart.

Jack grinned slyly, a glint of cunning in his eyes: "Heh heh, Lin Yu, didn't expect this, did you? You've finally met your match!"

"What the hell are you doing?" Lin Yu demanded sharply, his voice filled with anger.

Jack didn't answer, but instead walked straight to a sealed area deep within the ruins.

He muttered incantations and waved his hands, sending out strange runes that merged into the seal.

"What are you doing? Stop it!" Lin Yu realized the situation was bad and immediately rushed over.

Seeing this, Jack revealed a sinister smile: "Too late! I've already activated the seal, and what's inside will be out soon! Hahahaha..."

"Are you crazy! Do you know what you're doing?" Lin Yu roared.

"I know! I'll make you all pay for this!" Jack's eyes were filled with madness.

The conflict between the two erupted instantly, and a fierce battle unfolded deep within the ruins.

Jack's strength far exceeded Lin Yu's expectations; his moves were ruthless and merciless.

While fending off Jack's attacks, Lin Yu anxiously pondered a countermeasure.

He knew that if he couldn't stop Jack, the consequences would be dire.

Just then, Lin Yu suddenly noticed that Jack's movements showed a slight hesitation.

His heart moved, and a bold idea came to his mind.

"Jack, do you really think you can control it?" Lin Yu said with a sneer.

Jack's expression changed, a hint of panic flashing in his eyes: "You... what did you say?"

Lin Yu did not answer, but continued, "Do you think I don't know your plan? Do you think I don't know what your real purpose is?"

Jack's face grew increasingly pale, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

"You..." Jack was about to speak when Lin Yu interrupted him.

"You think I'll let you succeed?" Lin Yu's lips curled into a cold smile. "You're too naive!"

"What...what do you want?" Jack's voice trembled.

Lin Yu approached Jack step by step, his tone icy as he said, "I think..."

Lin Yu suddenly flashed forward and rushed towards Jack at an extremely fast speed.

Jack thought Lin Yu was going to fight desperately, so he frantically made moves to defend himself.

Unexpectedly, Lin Yu was just feinting. Taking advantage of Jack's opening, he snatched the control rune from Jack's hand.

It turned out that Lin Yu had already seen through Jack's plot. He pretended to fall for the trap in order to obtain the rune.

Lin Yu held the rune, a wicked smile playing on his lips.

Following Jack's previous plan, he sent false information to the Black-Clad Thieves, luring them into the trap area of ​​the ruins.

Upon receiving the intelligence, the black-clad thieves rushed in like sharks smelling blood.

As soon as they stepped inside, various traps were triggered, and flames soared into the sky, accompanied by screams of agony.

The black-clad bandits were utterly defeated and could only flee in all directions.

Looking at their disheveled appearance, Lin Yu couldn't help but burst into laughter: "With such meager skills, you still want to steal the treasure? You're simply overestimating yourselves, hahaha."

Just as Lin Yu was immersed in the joy of victory, Kong Yang rushed over and handed him a letter.

Lin Yu opened it and saw that it was written by Su Yao.

In the letter, Su Yao expressed her admiration for him with great respect, saying that he was as amazing as a superhero.

Lin Yu felt a warmth in his heart, as if Su Yao was right beside him, giving him endless strength.

He clenched his fist, his resolve to protect the ruins strengthened.

However, just as Lin Yu lowered his guard, a strange noise suddenly came from outside the ruins.

Lin Yu's eyes sharpened as he looked out of the ruins and murmured, "It seems the peace is only temporary." With that, he gripped his weapon and walked toward the direction of the disturbance.

The Imperial Legion and the Black-Clad Thieves returned with renewed force, surging towards the ruins from all directions like a tidal wave.

The shouts of battle were deafening, and the clash of swords and spears turned the area around the ruins into a bloody meat grinder in an instant.

Lin Yu led his men and the elven warriors brought by Alice in a desperate resistance, each of them fighting with bloodlust.

"Brothers, hold on! For our homeland!" Lin Yu shouted, his long sword flashing up and down, each swing taking several lives.

Although the elven warriors were few in number, they were all brave and skilled in battle. Their arrows rained down on the enemy, each one incredibly accurate and deadly.

"For the Queen! For glory!" Alice raised her longbow high, her heroic figure like a goddess on the battlefield.

Despite Lin Yu and his companions' valiant resistance, the sheer number of enemies overwhelmed them, and they gradually found themselves unable to hold their own.

"Boss, the defense tower is low on energy!" Kong Yang ran over to report, covered in sweat.

"What? It's out of energy so quickly?" Lin Yu's heart sank. This was not good news.

Just then, Lin Yu suddenly remembered that the Ruins Guardian had mentioned the hidden function of the defensive tower, saying that it could turn the tide in critical moments.

"Kong Yang, activate the 'Heavenly Punishment' mode on the defensive tower!" Lin Yu gave the order immediately.

"Heavenly Punishment Mode? What's that?" Kong Yang was completely bewildered.

"Stop talking nonsense and do as I say!"

Kong Yang didn't dare to delay and quickly ran to the control panel to operate it according to Lin Yu's instructions.

With a buzzing sound, a blinding light suddenly appeared on the top of the defensive tower, followed by a huge pillar of energy that crashed down on the enemy group.

With a deafening roar, the earth trembled and flames shot into the sky.

The Imperial Legion and the Black-Clad Thieves were caught off guard by this sudden attack, suffering countless casualties and their formations were thrown into chaos.

"What the hell! What the hell is this!"

"Run!"

The enemy troops were immediately thrown into chaos and fled in all directions.

Seeing this, Lin Yu's men were greatly encouraged and shouted, "Our boss is awesome!"

Lin Yu looked at the routed enemy and a cold smile appeared on his lips.

However, at that moment, Lin Yu suddenly sensed an unusual aura emanating from the depths of the ruins...

He turned sharply, looking into the depths of the ruins, and muttered to himself, "What's going on? This feeling..."
