Chapter 489: Chapter 227 Huang Que is in position - 2

"Everyone, brace yourselves. Once we make our move, it must be quick and clean. If we want to be hunters, we must have enough patience."

...

Swoosh—

Wang Jixuan executed the Earth Escape technique; a faint ripple appeared on the stone wall behind him. His form turned into a streak of earth-yellow light and drilled into it. Moments later, he emerged in the secret base’s access tunnel, immediately crouched down, and his armor became invisible.

Good, the alarms weren’t triggered.

Wang Jixuan crouched still, his spiritual sense carefully scanning the surroundings. Only after half a minute did he ensure his own safety and sprint down the tunnel.

Godspeed Talisman, Divine Movement Spell, armor assistance.

A two-to-three-kilometer distance only took him a few minutes to sprint to the end.

Now, the entire secret base had already plunged into chaos due to Xing Dian’s coma.

The three Level S Spirit Ability Users who had come to assist were all alarmed, and those Judgement Team squads had been reassigned to protect the suddenly comatose Xing Dian and the remaining researchers.

The old professor... his body had gone cold.

The sudden assault had plunged them into fear of the unknown. Some spiritual power users wanted to rush out, while others felt that rashly going out would make them easier to attack. They were gathering together, hiding in the strongest protected areas—No.3 and No.4.

Fu Jian was fully cooperating with Wang Jixuan’s operation.

The mobile forces and bomber fleets were already nearing the D2 border;

Fu Jian, wielding his influence, had exerted a "move and there will be war" extreme pressure on D2.

—The gold content of being a half-world Commander.

The already somewhat rotten high-levels of the D2 Combined Combat Zone were now mostly considering personal interests, the interests of their small factions, and found it difficult to make decisive counter-attacks.

As Wang Jixuan continued to charge forward, he didn’t forget to find the embedded communication optical cables in the stone wall and insert several signal detectors into them.

Establishing physical communications was a necessary precondition for conducting cyber-infiltration.

A jet-black butterfly followed Wang Jixuan.

Spirit Cultivator No.5 was no longer reserved, specifically focusing on Wang Jixuan, observing his strange and quirky methods.

Zzz.

"Commander," Mu Dan’s voice rang out, "Xing Dian has indeed been cautious; almost all areas are controlled by full or semi-mechanical systems, most devices are not networked, and there are no mechanical bodies within the base. It’s hard for me to make a move."

"Mm," Wang Jixuan said, "Can you paralyze the rail cars they use?"

"There are three cars designated for this tunnel. Two are for regular ingress and egress, which I can now control via the network, but one is for emergency escape, and it’s purely mechanically controlled."

"Mark that car."

"It’s been tagged."

A semi-transparent small map appeared on Wang Jixuan’s armor panel, with a series of icons marking the locations of all surveillance within his line of sight.

Mu Dan’s tactical role.

Daoist swiftly advanced like the wind, yet soon enough, something annoying happened.

That jet-black butterfly landed on Wang Jixuan’s shoulder.

Wang Jixuan felt his form sink slightly; he could feel the weight of a slender woman.

No, was this not a transformation technique, just a diversion?

Ah, this...

Wang Jixuan wisely refrained from complaining. After all, this was a critical juncture in the operation; with Xing Dian in a coma and Spirit Cultivator No.5 not causing trouble, he had a high chance of accomplishing his plans.

Just bear with it.

Then...

This road only took a few minutes; Spirit Cultivator No.5 kept asking via a voice transmission:

"Your strength seems to be only equivalent to a Level B or Level A Spirit Ability User, right? How did you manage to pass through walls? I can feel that you use spiritual energy very skillfully, which is not the same logic as our circuits."

"The curse you used before seems to have turned some power left in Xing Dian’s limb into a spiritual energy that he couldn’t resist himself... But, such practicality is too low. There’s rarely a situation where one could get an enemy’s limb and not be able to kill them directly."

"And inside your armor, why do the crystal cores release spiritual energy when you put a few together? When we initially designed the crystal cores, we left a spiritual energy switch that can only be activated by a circuit."

Wang Jixuan: ...

"Don’t you want to explain to me? This could sway the judgment in your favor—"

"No comment."

"Hmm?" Spirit Cultivator No.5 didn’t seem annoyed, "Okay then, but you’ve made me feel excited for the first time in a long while, young man."

An image of a chatty old lady popped into Wang Jixuan’s mind.

These spirit cultivators must be at least tens of thousands of years old, right?

Though age meant little to these ’core circuit carriers,’ but... this was too naggy.

The end of the tunnel was in sight.

Wang Jixuan slowed down, crouched, and moved forward; his spiritual sense could now envelop the entire secret base, including the stone room where Spirit Cultivator No.5’s stone plate was located.

Spirit Cultivator No.5 was keeping her promise;

She wasn’t doing much else.

Wang Jixuan didn’t rush to place the portable nuclear bomb but decided to first inspect the site.

There were two rail cars with four carriages; this was the only means of transportation for this passage, taking two minutes to reach the ’septic tank station’ at the exit.

Daoist took out a small high-tech magic artifact that was stored separately from the nuclear bomb:

[High-Performance Miniature Remote-Controlled Bomb].

He considerately ensured the complete destruction of these two rail cars by setting a failsafe, then quietly approached the hangar guarded by two low-level spiritual power users. Inside, the non-networked two-car rail car had three bombs placed near its engine.

With a Storage Magical Treasure, high-performance bombs were more useful than Blast Flame Talismans.
