Immediately, he followed the thread and found the hidden second copper wire. He took a deep breath and cut the wire.
At this point, his back was already drenched in sweat.
Only the last red wire remained. Although it might not be red in color, it was referred to as the "red wire" because it was the final and most crucial exclusion wire in the industry.
He searched for it, determined to find it. In his first attempt, he didn't succeed.
He felt a sinking feeling in his heart, and his mind became a bit muddled. He forced himself to stay calm, taking deep breaths. He started his second search.
This unlocking device and detonator were highly specialized. They could only interact with each other when the detonator was within ten meters of the unlocking device. That was why Alisha had to be brought to the scene.
He opened the cover of the unlocking device, and the red light indicated that the detonator had been detected.
He had to sever their connection, unlocking the detonator and proceeding with the next step. Any mistake in any step would cost Alisha her life.
His understanding of the detonator and micro-explosive device implanted in Athena was slightly incorrect. His imagined scenario had deviated. As he delved deeper into his research, he completely grasped the sequence and mastered the elements of disarming.
Now, only the last copper wire remained, and he had to find it!
He searched meticulously, focusing on every detail.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up. He had found it!
In an inconspicuous corner, there was a copper wire thinner than a strand of hair, hidden behind numerous thicker wires.
This was it, no doubt about it!
Luther's spirits were lifted, and he quickly cut the wire. With that, the weight on his heart was lifted as well.
Watching the red display disappear from the screen, he let out a sigh of relief and shouted, "OK, let's begin!"
