Listening to the words of the white gloves, Lin Rui's heart was extremely shocked. Everything was under the control of the Order, and they used the Russian intelligence services and themselves to help them eliminate dissidents from the Order. All of this makes the Order even more powerful. And with a flood of money pouring into the Orumi Federation, the Order will become more and more unstoppable in Africa.

The heavy sound of the door closing outside let Lin Rui know that these armed members of the Secret Society had closed the passage up the wine cellar. And the bursts of sparks and the sound of electric arcs also made him understand. These Secret Society militants are determined not to let themselves out. They had even welded the iron door at the exit. Lin Rui's heart really sank at this time. He didn't have any explosives around him, so he couldn't blow open the iron gate or any other passageway. And the vents in the cellar were too narrow to accommodate his body, so he didn't even want to climb out.

With the iron gates sealed, everything fell silent. The silence of this cellar is like a tomb. Lin Rui smiled bitterly, maybe if he changed Sergei, an alcoholic, he would like to use this wine cellar as his own grave. But that wasn't his cup of tea, and besides, he didn't want to die yet. He had to find a way to leave. Lin Rui kept pacing in the wine cellar, trying to find a way to get out.

He had only a few guns and some ammunition on him, a body armor with a ceramic bulletproof shield that had been shattered, a combat knife, and a communicator that had lost its signal because it was underground. All of this is not even comparable to a shovel. But what if he had a shovel? Can he dig a tunnel out of here? The villa was built on the rocky foundation of the island, and it would be difficult for even explosives to blow out a passage.

Lin Rui felt the loneliness and helplessness that he had never felt before, and these emotions might soon turn into despair, slowly devouring him completely in this closed underground wine cellar.

"it!" Lin Rui picked up the red wine bottle next to him and smashed it on the stone wall of the wine cellar made of large rocks. The bottle is shattered, and it feels like the hope of survival is shattering. Of course, Lin Rui didn't give up so easily, he carefully inspected the cellar, trying to find other exits, or items that could help him escape. But still nothing. There is nothing here except bottles, wine cabinets and barrels. Nothing could help him escape.

Lin Rui sat silently for a moment. Perhaps White Glove was right, he would die here, a dry and dehydrated corpse in the constant temperature of the cellar. The only thing he could do now was to use his own pistol to give himself a painful blow, which was better than starving to death.

Lin Ruirui thought about it, stood up, walked to the wine cabinet where the spirits were stored on the other side, and smashed all the wine bottles. Even if he died, he didn't want the enemy to get his own body. It's better to set fire to this cellar and let yourself be wiped out. Thinking of this, Lin Rui did not hesitate to pick up a mallet that knocked on the wine valve from the side of the wine barrel and smashed all the spirits in the wine cellar. Then he calmly took a few sips with a bottle of wine and poured the rest on himself.

"Damn, the hound will die on the mountain eventually, and it's a hundred!" Lin Rui angrily threw the wine bottle in his hand to the ground, and then took out a lighter from his pocket. This lighter was given to him by the British mercenary Ivan when he first joined the Morningstar Company. The metal casing of the lighter is hand-engraved with a dagger with a line of words: Never say never. This lighter has too many memories of the beginning.

Lin Rui smiled slightly, he already felt that nothing mattered. At least this time, he let all the team members leave alive. He turned on his lighter, and the orange flames made his face look a little haggard.

But soon he extinguished the lighter again, walked a few quick steps, and stared at his feet. He broke all the liquor so that it was dripping all over the floor, but at the same time he noticed that the ground was constantly bubbling up. At first, he didn't pay much attention to it, but soon he felt that something was not right, the accumulated liquor on the ground seemed to be penetrating downward, which was normal, but the speed of this penetration seemed to be a little too fast.

Lin Rui looked at the bubbles on the parquet floor and frowned slightly. Something suddenly occurred to him. When he and Sandro were chasing Alekfelovich, the evacuation route of Alekfelovich and the others made him feel a little abnormal, originally they were in the western part of the villa, and they only evacuated to the eastern area after discovering that someone had invaded the interior of the villa. And judging from the location at that time, the West End should actually be safer. Why are they in such a hurry to withdraw here?

And while they were trapped in the study, they were still trying to clear the threat and rush downstairs. Could it be that their destination at that time was also here, or that there were indeed other exits here? Lin Rui's heart moved slightly, Alekfelovich was an agent, and since he had a different heart for the Secret Society, would he have a hidden escape path arranged by his residence?

Lin Rui looked at the wine on the ground and the bubbles that kept churning. He squatted down and tried desperately to remove the liquor from the ground with his hands, and plunged the dagger down the gap in the parquet floor, trying to pry open the floor. But the floor underneath was so strong that he couldn't pry it between them. But he didn't give up and continued to try in a different direction. He had finally pried a piece of the floor, and his heart was filled with ecstasy and excitement when his dagger touched the underneath the floor.

Because by the touch on the tip of the knife, he knew that the parquet floor was not an ordinary floor, but metal. In general, the floor can be concrete or rock, but not metal. There is metal underneath the floor, and the liquor seeps underneath, indicating that there must be something mysterious underneath. Maybe it was his hope of escape.

Lin Rui gritted his teeth and pried open all the floors with a dagger, and finally found a metal secret door hidden under the floor, which was very hidden. And there is a hydraulic device that can be opened quickly, and Lin Rui found a hidden handle in the back of a wine cabinet. After pulling, the iron plate quickly flipped up, revealing a metal staircase that descended downward.

It seems that this is a well-designed entrance, and if it is someone who knows the location of the mechanism, there is no need to pry open the floor as hard as Lin Rui. You can open the tunnel directly with a hidden wrench. The hydraulics will prop up all the wooden floors, revealing the entrance directly. It can be said that the design itself is for quick escape. Lin Rui had a bottom in his heart, he looked at the lighter in his hand again and took a deep breath.

Maybe it wasn't this lighter that touched some of his memories just now, maybe he really set himself on fire. He was not a superstitious person, but this time, he really felt that maybe it was in the dark that those fallen comrades really helped him. It made him feel a warmth in his heart.
