COMMAND BUNKER — NIGHT
The command bunker was a fortress beneath the ruined city, walls fortified with steel and layers of digital defenses. Inside, Su Chen gathered his remaining forces, the atmosphere charged with anticipation and dread.
FINAL STRATEGY
The holographic map flickered as Su Chen traced out the final assault.
"This ends tonight," he said. "We cut the head off the beast — the puppet masters' main server. Without it, their empire collapses."
Li Wei nodded, resolve hardening.
"It's risky. But it's the only way."
SACRIFICE AND LOYALTY
Before the assault, Su Chen faced his team — the few who had survived the endless battles.
"If we don't make it out, know this: I trusted every one of you. And I will carry your names with me to the end."
BATTLE COMMENCES
The assault exploded into chaos — gunfire, explosions, and the clash of wills filled the air. Su Chen fought with brutal efficiency, every strike a message carved in pain.
SYSTEM OVERLOAD
The system faltered under strain, flashing warnings and errors.
[Critical: System Integrity Failing.]
Su Chen clenched his teeth.
"No time for failure. I'm not done yet."
ENDING SCENE
As the server room's defenses began to crumble, Su Chen stared into the blinking core, a final choice weighing heavy.
"This is it. The last step to freedom—or total destruction."
