Legend of the Cyber Heroes
Chapter 197 - 197 117 Reinforcements

197: Chapter 117: Reinforcements 197: Chapter 117: Reinforcements Elite Soldier Tactics, minor victories lead to loss, only consistent major victories can overturn the numerical disadvantage.

Therefore, the basic craft of a hero includes “intelligence gathering”.

And this thing often is tied to the level of internal strength.

Among the world’s first batch of heroes, many were hackers.

These were people who inherently stood out of the ordinary norms, always vigilant about the world.

Thus, they were lucky to avoid the invisible assault of the “unprecedented dictator”.

In an era where everyone is considered an enemy, assassination operations require even more intelligence.

Only by repeatedly comparing the combat strength of both adversaries and assessing the likelihood of success can one minimize the possibility of failing the mission and preserve useful bodies.

“If you want to attack Green Forest Stronghold, you first need to assess the potential distance from your area to the Stronghold, then start by interrogating the lackeys about the number of people in the stronghold, including how many leaders there are and what Martial Arts they use.”

“If possible, you should also check the local online community for any relevant discussions…”

“Then, you need to prepare some EMPs or Iron Dust, to prevent the enemy from leveraging their numerical advantage…”

“But you, on the other hand…”

Solo Kill King rambled non-stop for a quarter of an hour, harshly criticizing Huang Ouguang’s actions in this matter.

Huang Ouguang could only obediently take the scolding.

On the other hand, “Wandering Soul Palm” Gofrey suddenly groaned and sat up with a jerk like a carp.

Seeing this, Cui Hai said, “Brother Gofrey, are you okay?”

Gofrey had previously suffered a brain injury, which also restricted his Martial Arts, hence the need for medication.

However, they only got the medicine last night—coincidentally conned from some gang by Xiang Shan.

Thereafter, this group was busy leaving the city and then wanted to return to provide support, constantly without a chance to administer the medicine.

Just now, Gofrey and Yuan Wenren, the two most severely injured, medicated their brains and then fell into a deep sleep.

And now, Gofrey had just woken up.

Gofrey waved his hand in the air three times to feel it out and then said, “Just one dose of medicine wouldn’t heal me so quickly.

However, there definitely has been improvement.”

Cui Hai was somewhat envious.

His injury was more severe than Gofrey’s and had occurred half a year ago, with some neural networks permanently lost function.

To fully recover his Martial Arts, Restoring Enzymes were indispensable.

Gofrey didn’t waste much time, quickly went to the equipment rack, and started the simulation program.

In his field of view, he envisioned several “imaginary enemies” and began practicing with them.

In ancient times, Martial Arts included a similar practice known as “meditation”.

And in modern combat sports, the training method of “No-target boxing” is also heavily emphasized.

Gofrey was seizing the time of his brain’s healing to consolidate his Martial Arts cultivation.

Red Hand A and Oko connected their data interfaces to the same small intelligence device to practice “hacking” and “defense” against each other.

This process is typically about the attacker inserting viruses or malicious code and the defender quickly finding and deleting them.

Through countless repetitions in this kind of practice, it becomes ingrained as an instinct.

Thus, your internal strength is considered to have reached the entry level.

This could be said to be the most primitive training method.

Red Hand A even distractedly watched Gofrey’s practice, feeling somewhat envious.

Then the Gu he had inserted was instantly and thoroughly cleansed by his senior brother.

“Focus,” Oko said, “If you’re not focused, you can’t accomplish anything.”

“Oh,” Red Hand A nodded but couldn’t help saying, “Senior Brother, you said that to master this External Martial Arts…”

“You need to find resources online,” Oko said.

“In this aspect, our sect is weak and can’t help you much.”

Red Hand A nodded, “This time after leaving, I realized how important it is to cultivate external strength as well…”

“Don’t neglect your current cultivation either,” Oko mentioned.

Red Hand A nodded, no longer speaking.

But before long, he felt that his senior brother had stopped the process of “clearing malicious codes”.

The impediments in the system’s operation instantly made the small intelligent device’s display show a splash of colors.

“Senior Brother?

Should we switch hands?”

Red Hand A asked.

But he noticed his senior brother’s gaze was obviously not on him.

He looked back into the distance.

It was exactly towards Pine Eagle City.

At this distance, the thousands of meters tall buildings were like swords poking into the sky from beyond the horizon.

And now, the edges of those giant buildings saw a small, dense cluster of objects.

It was a swarm of drones.

The two young heroes exchanged glances and shouted, “We’ve got to quickly tell the elders about this!”

…………………………….

“The righteous light shines upon the land…”

Within virtual reality, Amilcare silently observed everything.

This was a scene synthesized from the only available video data.

At that moment, the spotlights from several other buildings and ground forces converged on the outer wall of the Meiyimei Building, forming a “road” of light.

A Scientific Knight plummeted down this “road”.

In the slowed footage, his limbs flailed meaninglessly, as if trying to grasp something to avert his doom.

But the next instant, the Hero rushed down.

His foot tapped the building’s outer wall, accelerating downward.

Simultaneously, his broad scabbard and the robe draped over him altered his body’s aerodynamic shape, ensuring the airflow would “press” him against the wall.

Just like that, he accelerated a second and third time…

Countless ammunition flew up from the ground.

However, most of it fell behind the Hero.

Countless fragments of building materials broke off from the skyscraper, falling like a stone waterfall.

Compared to the figure of the Hero, the fall, exacerbated by gravitational acceleration, seemed almost like “stillness”.

Occasionally, bullets did hit the Hero.

Unfortunately, they were too small in caliber and too far in distance.

Unless a bullet hit directly at the joints or the side of the Sonicon Blade, they did not cause significant damage to the Hero.

Then, the Hero spun in the air, swinging his great sword in an exaggerated manner, and he cut open the body of Mr.

Bengel.

Amilcare watched it again.

He sighed, “The martial arts displayed here are all of the performing type.

If you just look at this segment, you can’t analyze the techniques that the Hero originally excelled at.”

Stage Martial Arts is a form of performing arts.

Naturally, a “performance” means to become an “other individual, not oneself” at the behavioral level.

Therefore, this execution footage cannot be used to analyze samples of the Hero who carried out the assassination.

“At that time, the Meiyimei Building was also hijacked by an Internal Strength Master, and there were also bombs exploding the machine room and an EMP disturbing systems, a comprehensive attack.

No useful data were left.”

“Only a few non-networked or those caught in the Iron Dust covered areas left some video records.”

“This way, it’s impossible to determine the identity of that Hero.”

After closing the virtual reality, he also checked the report submitted by the Order of Scientific Knights.

“The property lost this time mainly included the unfinished paper of the Mona Knight Order and the amber of the first generation Jade Cauldron Fungus.”

“As for the unfinished paper, there is a clue.

According to the records provided by Ashur, the Mona Knight Order had previously discovered that an Internal Strength Master was lurking.

This Internal Strength Master had been active in the city for some time…”

“In the event of Mr.

Bengel’s assassination, this Internal Strength Master also had acted.”

“The Hero who assassinated Mr.

Bengel should not be the same person as the Internal Strength Master.”

“Was the cooperation between these two individuals a spontaneous event or premeditated?”

“Moreover, there’s also Appennine.

There are records showing that before he was killed, he had screamed ‘So you have come after all.’ And previous records also showed that he arrived early at the Mona Knight Order seeking shelter…”

“And the reason for seeking shelter…”

At this, Amilcare paused slightly.

“Deborah died; therefore, he felt endangered.”

“But, is the Martial Artist he encountered in the town, the Hero who killed Deborah, and the Hero who killed the big dog, all the same person?”

Amilcare found it somewhat incredible.

The report indicated that a few months ago, this Martial Artist was only left with a head, found in a small town.

At that time, he didn’t even have the Martial Arts Algorithm.

Could such a Martial Artist, within a few months, easily penetrate the Order of Scientific Knights and kill a Knight?

He found it unbelievable.

At that moment, a prompt popped up in the lower right of his field of view.

The voice of his assistant came through, “Lord, we have arrived.”

His view switched again.

This time, he seemingly became the huge aircraft itself.

The aircraft’s jets were set to point downward, stabilizing the aircraft hovering high in the air and slowly approaching the high platform of the building.

At that moment, all anti-aircraft artillery positions spontaneously lost power.

Meanwhile, the missiles on the Lord’s Aircraft were revealed, targeting these positions.

Just last night, an incident of “anti-aircraft artillery positions being occupied by the Hero” had occurred.

It was necessary to be a bit cautious here.

Minutes later, Amilcare Zhao finally stood on the high platform at the top of the Pine Eagle Building.

He looked towards the north.

The Stay-Assistant knelt behind him, saying, “Lord, your subordinate has failed…”

Amilcare waved his hand, “I came back this time to catch that thief and cleanse the disgrace.”

The assistant asked, “They might have gone far, so now…”

Amilcare shook his head, “Not now.

If we dispatch all our forces into the wilderness, those audacious daredevils would dare to come back and assassinate again.”

“After all, they can’t cover much distance during the day.

Wait.

Wait until tomorrow when my main forces return.”

“At that time, I will personally capture that Hero and execute him in front of the public.”
