Danny sent the location of the television station that hosted the entertainment show to He Ao.

The location wasn’t far from Kaye City Police Department; it was only a matter of minutes away. Dismantling a bomb in twenty minutes might be difficult, but rescuing people and evacuation were more than feasible. At this moment, Chief Jelang should be leading his team there. The entire police force of Kaye City was ready to rescue civilians on one hand and to capture the masked man on the other.

Countless thoughts raced through He Ao’s mind.

Since the adversary wanted to stir up trouble, they surely had an ulterior motive.

What in this city could possibly be the target of their plot?

He Ao paused, lifted his head, and looked at the towering emblem of Stars City on the ceiling.

Nolanka Bank!

He quickly walked to the conference table, picked up his silver-gray suitcase, and left the conference room.

Elena, who was guarding outside, saw He Ao coming out and was about to greet him, but she saw him stride swiftly into the elevator.

He Ao didn’t press the button to go down, but instead, he pressed to go up.

The elevator connected to the Federation boardroom could go directly to the rooftop of the Nolanka building, where there were two huge helipads. In times of danger, they could be used to immediately evacuate the board members.

This was also why the boardroom was located at the top of the building.

Standing in the elevator, He Ao pressed a button on his suitcase.

A silver-black armor shimmering with blue radiance burst open, quickly enveloping He Ao’s body.

When the elevator doors opened, the security guards stationed on the rooftop were about to salute, but instead, they saw a silvery figure leap out and shoot toward the sky.

······

Nolanka Bank was the largest bank in Kaye City.

Unlike the Nord Bank, which held a high market share in every city and was a major Federation-wide bank, Nolanka Bank could be considered a regional bank, influential only in Kaye City and a few nearby cities.

Naturally, the headquarters of Nolanka Bank was in Kaye City.

Benefiting from the vigorous promotion by Nord Bank, Nolanka Bank had adopted a cryptocurrency system developed by Nord Bank.

The server room for this cryptocurrency system was naturally located beneath the Nolanka Bank headquarters in Kaye City.

Although after the robbery incident, Nolanka Bank had been trying out a new transaction system, due to the short time frame, it was not fully online yet, and the old system was still partly in use.

The police rushing to the streets to apprehend suspects were likely to come back empty-handed. The man with the sinister smile behind his mask probably wasn’t releasing balloons on the streets at that moment.

The video was pre-recorded.

In the video, the skies above the streets were filled with white clouds, and He Ao had just passed through that area in the morning.

The weather in Kaye City was very good today, with not a cloud in sight.

——

"Shh, ladies and gentlemen, please stay quiet. We’re just here to take something."

The man wearing a baby doll mask entered the bank’s main gate, looking at each of the patrons cowering in their chairs.

The cash withdrawal service provided by the bank had decreased significantly, and most of these people were there to sign paperwork for opening accounts or large investment projects.

Bang—Bang—Bang—

One of his thin and tall underlings wearing a circus mask casually fired a round into the ceiling.

"Wuu."

A little girl in a pink puffer coat hid in her mother’s arms and began to cry softly.

"Shh," a cold barrel pressed against her forehead, "don’t cry."

The girl looked up, encountering the creepy eyes of a baby doll mask, and in front of the mask, a cold, black gun. She sniffed, frozen with fright, and didn’t dare to move at all.

"You see," the masked man slowly squeezed his finger on the trigger, "don’t be so sad."

The girl’s mother hugged her tightly, ready to turn around and shield her daughter.

Ding—

The sound of the elevator door opening caught everyone’s attention.

The man raised his gun, laughed crazily for a bit, and walked towards the elevator, his three goons following him inside.

The rest of the underlings stood guard with their weapons drawn.

The little girl who had a near-death escape stared blankly ahead, clutching her mother’s clothing tightly.

——

He Ao landed in an alley not far from Nolanka Bank. From a distance, he could see the glass doors of Nolanka Bank were tightly closed, even though it wasn’t closing time.

He glanced at the mecha’s remaining battery.

17%.

He had only flown in the sky twice, not even at full power, using only some flight equipment at a power consumption between 17% to 23%. The whole activity had not exceeded ten minutes, yet already 83% of the battery was drained.

Such temporary batteries were really not durable.

But 17% should be enough to deal with these people.

Wearing the mecha, He Ao walked step by step from one corner to the back of the bank.

Some of the crowd in front of the bank had already noticed something was amiss and were gathering around, but in this corner, there were very few people to witness.

He Ao approached the glass curtain wall outside the bank. Through the blurry glass, he activated various scanning devices and watched the movements of the robbers inside.

There were five robbers on the first floor, each standing at five different points. The bank’s customers and employees had been herded together by them into a group.

Through the thermal scanner, He Ao could clearly see the five people’s moves and track their movements.

He slowly raised his right hand and extended his index finger.

Faint halos of light gathered at his fingertip.

Then with his other hand, he gently tapped on the glass curtain wall.

The bank’s glass was made of super high-strength bulletproof tempered glass with excellent protective properties.

The five robbers, wearing circus masks, were attracted by the tapping sound and looked in his direction simultaneously.

And in that instant, He Ao fiercely punched the massive glass curtain wall.

Countless cracks immediately spread across the entire wall, obscuring everyone’s view.

The robbers instinctively raised their submachine guns and pulled the trigger toward the shattered glass curtain wall.

Fire bursts poured onto the broken wall, like fireworks in the height of summer.

The giant glass curtain wall slowly collapsed, making a roaring noise.

From within the great dust, a silver-black figure slowly emerged. He raised his hand towards the robbers.

A dazzling brilliance lit up the entire bank lobby for a moment and then went out.

The robber closest to the silver-gray figure fell with a thunderous sound, a scorching Qi escaping from his pierced mask and forehead.

The other robbers almost instantaneously picked up their guns, aiming at the silver-gray figure.

But their actions were already too late.

The silver-gray figure lifted his feet, stepping forward, the light at his fingertips flashing past.

By the time he reached the elevator,

The last robber’s figure slowly fell.

He Ao calmly pressed the elevator button.

Behind him, the crowd that had just reacted screamed and scattered in escape.

——

"How much longer?"

The man in the chubby baby mask stepped over the body of a guard and rasped.

"Almost there, almost there."

The subordinates operating the laser cutting machine hastily replied.

In front of them stood a massive and thick metal wall. A few subordinates holding portable laser cutters were diligently melting the metal wall, etching lines upon its surface.

The shrill alarm kept screeching crazily, but everyone there seemed deaf to it.

"Speed it up,"

the man in the chubby baby mask urged his subordinates.

As all the melted lines connected, the wall seemed to loosen.

The masked man pushed against the wall; the exceptionally sturdy vault wall, severed from the rest, slowly fell inward.

An irregular opening appeared before everyone’s eyes.
