Chapter 177: Chapter 108: The Hour Has Arrived!_2

Wang Jixuan wrapped his legs in Qi and moved forward silently.

Compared to the half-human mechas like Lingtong Red Snake, Wang Jixuan had his unique advantages; he could move through the ventilation ducts without making a sound, needing only to extend his Spiritual Sense to capture all sorts of information.

The first level below the surface was the military barracks rest area and training zone, which on the surface showed no problems.

The soldiers on duty intervals were releasing their excessive energy in the gym and on the ball courts.

In some remote and concealed corners, men and women could be found squeezing into small rooms, competing in strength, endurance, and sensitivity.

Overall, it was quite lively.

In terms of discipline, however, it was generally not as good as in Fortress 76; Wang Jixuan directly ’saw’ two cases of bullying within the military.

Wang Jixuan felt his way along the ventilation ducts of the second layer, and when he encountered rotating fan blades, Instructor Hei would step in to stop them. The stealth capabilities of the X-armor were enough to deal with the pervasive surveillance network within the ducts.

He had just changed locations a few times when his Spiritual Sense detected an area with serious violations of discipline,

It was a dimly-lit meeting room where seven or eight men and women, out of uniform, were having an indecent party.

The air was thick with smoke, addictive contraband mixed with alcoholic beverages lay scattered about, and the aggressive beats of the music were meant to cover up sounds that shouldn’t be present in that meeting room; bare bodies intertwined in a dance of apocalyptic revelry.

Wang Jixuan frowned and had to pinch his nose as he approached the area.

The so-called gathering of evidence, if only seen and heard through Spiritual Sense, could only be recounted by him and could not serve as proof.

As he got closer to the meeting room, the ventilation shaft began to fill with unpleasant odors.

Wang Jixuan produced a small accessories box from behind his back, and from it, he took out three wasp-sized drones. He set the detection area and let them fly quietly.

Soon, Instructor Hei’s cursing came through the earpiece:

"These pieces of trash! Is this how they use the military meeting room? Dammit! Mark them! Knock them all out later! Castrate them and no anesthesia!"

The irritable old instructor.

Unperturbed, Wang Jixuan marked the offending officers with a light yellow mark, noting the words [No Anesthesia Castration].

Light yellow indicated a serious breach of discipline, but not a capital offense.

Just as Wang Jixuan was about to move on, the conversation between two middle-aged officers taking a smoking break caught his attention.

"The fight over at 76 was truly brutal."

"Yeah, an expansion camp was destroyed by Spiritual Ability Users; those creatures are vicious."

"Shut the hell up! Trying to get me killed?!"

The older man cursed and sprawled in his chair, blowing a smoke ring lightly:

"This incident is going to involve us too, could be big trouble."

The slightly younger man asked, "What’s up? Old captain, what trouble could we possibly be in? If Blade Beasts come for us, we’re doomed anyway, might as well enjoy it while we can."

"As far as I know, we fired a few missiles at Fortress 76. The order came from the top, and the 023 Missile Squadron carried it out, aiming at those half-human Mechas... Those are real ancestors."

"Has the commander gone crazy? Isn’t this stupid? Fuck! Just one of those half-human Mechas could finish us."

"He’s not insane, he’s under her thumb, and that woman is clever."

"But on another note, despite being over fifty, the Biological Minister’s figure is something else."

"You’re still not spent? Interested in that wilted cabbage?"

The two men chuckled, glancing at a makeshift bed set up with chairs nearby and the men and women who were still actively ’exercising’.

Wang Jixuan stealthily crawled away.

The Biological Minister of Fortress 82 and the military commander stationed there were likely his main targets for this operation.

What about the Governor?

How was the Governor here?

Master Wang continued his search, maintaining his invisibility and affixing connectors at key locations.

Instructor Hei was already hacking into the internal management system of Fortress 82.

To avoid spooking the enemy, Instructor Hei didn’t go through the two-level command posts but directly controlled various instruments using the connectors set by Wang Jixuan.

—In the Lingtong Team, Wan Xiaoqi was the one who performed this task.

As time ticked by, Wang Jixuan’s trail spread throughout the top six levels of Upper City Fortress 82 via the ventilation ducts.

He didn’t need to delve into every nook and cranny; his Spiritual Sense did the searching, saving him a lot of time.

Wang Jixuan later found six more points of valuable intelligence, each of which had a micro drone deployed to transmit the visuals to Instructor Hei.

Some of the footage was quite interesting too.

[Fortress First Level Governor’s office].

The Governor, over seventy years old, continuously adjusted his glasses, frowning at the report in front of him, reluctant to put down his signature.

Behind the old Governor stood two middle-aged Spiritual Ability Users, laughing and talking about the old Governor’s daughter, son-in-law, and granddaughter.

[Fortress Third Level, Spiritual Ability House meeting room].

Kong Nu’s old lover, the woman still tipping with charm, sat at the end of the conference table, constantly rubbing her forehead, while the seated Spiritual Ability Users on both sides kept arguing.

They were arguing whether they should evacuate next.

"Fortress 76 has gone mad with killing! Three A-grade dead! Three A-grades, not garbage like us, cannon fodder! We really should pull out now, leader!"
