Infiltrating the building felt like walking on thin ice for William; every step, every movement demanded his utmost caution. His mind was constantly focused and alert, draining his energy. It wasn't until the good news arrived that he felt a slight lift in his spirits.
However, Charles did not quickly cut off the intercom: "Why aren't you speaking?"
The good news had invigorated William, but he soon became tense again, glancing at Anthony in confusion. Anthony shook his head and quietly set down the intercom.
On the other end, Charles clearly sensed something was amiss, his voice now frantic: "Damn it! There are intruders! They’re all heading to the Eighteenth Floor!"
Charles's voice boomed with an intensity that shattered his usual calm demeanor; all traces of his refined elegance were abandoned. His shout was louder than a butcher calling for pigs, as if he feared William and the audience on this end might not hear him clearly.
To make matters worse, Charles repeated "Eighteenth Floor" several times! This made William's eyes light up; despite his exhausted body, it felt as if some hidden energy had been activated within him: "Mr. Anthony, Eighteenth Floor! The Tactical Nuclear Weapon must be hidden there!"
With the situation looking promising, William not only grasped the external circumstances but also unexpectedly discovered the location of the Tactical Nuclear Weapon. His excitement surged as he sent out a barrage of messages filled with enthusiasm.
[Who would have thought that you, Charles, with your handsome looks as Cobra Boss, could be so careless? Isn’t this just handing over intelligence?]
[Indeed, the greatest mistake of the Arms Tycoons was bringing the Viper to the Great Federation, Sherwood District. Without the Viper, the information about the Tactical Nuclear Weapon wouldn’t have leaked, and we might not have lost on the front lines.]
[The next part of the story is already clear to me; it’s definitely going to be Anthony and William racing against time to stop the launch of the Tactical Nuclear Weapon.]
Seeing William's excited demeanor, Anthony felt a bit more relaxed. He had initially thought that Charles’s intelligence delivery was too deliberate and might raise doubts in William’s mind. He had underestimated William’s intelligence.
But seeing William like this seemed to indicate that it was effective?
Anthony pushed aside any further thoughts: "I heard it; let’s hurry! The Viper is definitely on their way—we need to get there before them."
"Yes!" The two quickly picked up speed and dashed up the side stairwell towards the Eighteenth Floor.
William climbed the stairs with increasing excitement, the light in his eyes growing ever brighter. It felt as if he were not merely ascending a set of ordinary stairs, but rather the Hero's Stairway that would lead him to stop the Great Federation's nuclear explosion. In that moment, he even felt as though he was stepping upon beams of light.
However, everything shattered when he pushed open the heavy door to the Eighteenth Floor on Antong Avenue.
What lay before him was a vast ruin. The entire Eighteenth Floor appeared to have been ravaged by some monstrous force; walls had collapsed and debris was strewn everywhere. A row of top-tier Double Nitrogen Glass had been deliberately wiped away, leaving only the fierce winds from outside to invade, sweeping through and stirring up countless pieces of junk.
It looked as if a flying monster had crashed into the building's Eighteenth Floor, casually waving its hand to shatter all the glass. Then, with a quick motion, it had reduced the interior of the Eighteenth Floor to rubble. Finally, it had taken away the Tactical Nuclear Weapon.
William's heart, once filled with passion and fervor, suddenly cooled and tightened in an instant.
