Chapter 478: Chapter 335: New Objective

Several days later.

Beneath the Hope Building.

Two to three thousand genetic warriors gathered, and countless citizens of Philadelphia looked on.

Because today, the leader of the Resistance, the legendary Yi, would destroy the Hope Building and put an end to the rule of the Genetic Federation once and for all. They came from all corners of the city to witness this epoch-making moment.

"Yi, I don’t think it’s necessary to destroy the Hope Building. This place could serve as our base. We need such a place." Hong Zhen spoke earnestly, her face, having had its scars healed, had become much brighter, not as fierce as before.

Li Yi said, "As long as the Hope Building stands, the Genetic Federation will definitely try to take it back. With our current strength, we cannot contend with the Genetic Federation. Plus, this building bears too much of the grief and pain of the people of Philadelphia. Whenever someone looks up at the Hope Building, they are reminded of their miserable past. Only by destroying it can we end the suffering of the people of Philadelphia."

"Moreover, the architecture of the old era can’t sustain the people of the new era."

"Hong Zhen, don’t feel sorry. The truly valuable things are always the people, not some useless building that has already been emptied out."

"You are right."

Hong Zhen looked at Li Yi, her eyes no longer fierce, only adoration and reverence were shown unintentionally, because the man before her was genuinely great.

No one has ever been willing to distribute the gene serum to ordinary people, even the homeless could have a chance to obtain a dose.

Nor has anyone ever thought of distributing the accumulated wealth of the Hope Building over numerous years equally among all the impoverished people of Philadelphia.

No one has ever dared to say that it is not the people who should fear the Genetic Federation, but the Genetic Federation that should fear the people.

The longer she was in contact with this man, the more she felt her own insignificance, Yi’s thoughts were truly era-defining, like a dazzling light capable of illuminating the darkest corners of Philadelphia.

"Lan Ji, prepare the explosion," Li Yi ordered at this moment.

Standing next to him was an intelligent robot that looked no different from a real person. She had long blue hair, a graceful figure, and a sweet smile on her face. This was Ji Ke’s masterpiece, according to him, Lan Ji’s computing power could rival that of fifth-generation artificial intelligence. It incorporated the intelligence chips of six of the latest service robots, expanded the database, and had significant potential for growth.

"Yes, Master," Lan Ji accepted the order with a smile: "Please confirm the demolition of the Hope Building."

"Confirmed," Li Yi responded.

"Explosive sequence initiating, countdown ten...nine...eight..." Lan Ji began the countdown.

When the countdown reached zero.

The entire Hope Building suddenly erupted in brilliant flashes, which had terrible destructive power, instantaneously consuming the building layer by layer. The bombs of World Six were unusual, the explosion was almost silent, and did not scatter debris everywhere like conventional explosives.

When the light faded, the entire Hope Building was gone, leaving behind only minimal ruins.

Upon witnessing the Hope Building being blown up, cheers erupted among the surrounding crowd, celebrating the momentous occasion, signaling that their resistance had been utterly successful.

"Yi, what should we do next? You tell us, whatever you ask of us, we’ll back you up," Hei Shi, a burly figure, excitedly prepared to take more actions following Li Yi.

Not just him, the group of followers behind him who had become genetic warriors were also excited. They looked at Li Yi, seeing him as a life mentor, and would rush forward without hesitation at whatever Yi asked of them.

The flame of rebellion burned in their hearts, nothing could stop them now.

Li Yi turned to face the crowd and smiled faintly, "What you wish to do no longer requires my guidance, your hearts have already told you the answer. Philadelphia is just the beginning. What you need to do is, like me, lead the people elsewhere to resist the Genetic Federation."

"The world is vast, and there are far more than one Hope Building out there. Destroy them, take out the gene serums inside, and distribute them to everyone, to achieve true genetic freedom. But before that, I suggest you start with the smaller places. Do not attempt to attack the big cities. The flame of freedom is still weak and cannot completely incinerate the corrupt Federation. We must first unite all those in difficulty and let the light of freedom grow stronger."

Having said that.

He sprang into the air and called out to everyone in Hope Square: "All those who yearn for genetic freedom are waiting for you to rescue them. Go, leave Philadelphia, travel to every corner of the world, and let your voice be heard by all. The Genetic Federation can exploit everything from you with power, but it cannot exploit your desire for freedom and equality."

"Yi, you’re a hero," someone shouted.

"I am not a hero; you are the real heroes."

Li Yi’s voice echoed in Hope Square: "Those who run towards freedom are all heroes. Ladies and gentlemen, become a spark and set this era ablaze. The world belongs to you; now is the time for you to take back everything that your ancestors have lost. If the enemy endows you with fear, then you should bestow that fear back upon them."

Many were emotionally charged, shouting back and forth.

They seemed to understand what they should do, finding a cause worth risking their lives for, a purpose to fight for all their lives.

"I’m going to Lan Town. I want the people of Lan Town to also enjoy the right to genetic freedom. If people from the Genetic Federation come to stop me, I’ll show them what fear is."

"I’ll accompany you to Lan Town."

"I’m going too."

"I’m going to Mai City; the people there are also suffering exploitation and oppression like us." Some people chose a different target.

The crowd gathered in the square, like the departing tide, started to disperse into individuals, boarding various modes of transportation. They left Philadelphia, heading to other cities, carrying Li Yi’s thoughts to every corner of the world. No one stopped them, just as their life mentor, Yi, had said.

No one will stop a man in his quest for freedom.

"Hey, are you guys leaving too? Bastards." Gang leader Ke Fei saw his underlings leaving one by one, and he immediately sensed that something was amiss.

"Boss, I don’t want to stay in Philadelphia, fighting with you and other gangs, only to end up dead on the street. I want to be a hero, even if it’s just for one day."

"Sorry, Boss Ke Fei, I’m leaving too."

Li Yi’s ideologies inspired everyone; they abandoned their former leaders without hesitation, because now they had a greater purpose.

"Ke Fei, you shouldn’t stop them. They are free, and everything is their own choice," Hong Zhen said.

"Shut up, Hong Zhen, I’m also leaving this damned Philadelphia." At this moment, Ke Fei was annoyed and a bit furious. Without his underlings, he was no longer a boss, so he decided, as a former boss, to follow his underlings to other cities to develop. If possible, he wouldn’t mind spreading the idea of genetic freedom.

Before long, Ke Fei left with his few remaining underlings.

Hei Shi didn’t leave; he just looked at Li Yi: "Yi, you’re not the type to settle down, you must have some big plans next. How about it? Let me join in; I’m now a fifth-level genetic warrior."

Hei Shi, who was originally a fourth-level genetic warrior, had realized his potential after restoring his body, and in the past few days, he grew into a fifth-level genetic warrior.

"I can help you too," Hong Zhen immediately added.

"So can Ke Ni," said the girl with pink hair earnestly.

Li Yi watched as people continued to leave and then gazed at the distant sky: "Even if the Genetic Federation becomes corrupt and Philadelphia falls, they will not sit back and do nothing. I suspect they have already taken action. For the safety of the people of Philadelphia, they must leave this city. However, they have become genetic warriors and can survive well wherever they go."

"But resisting the Genetic Federation isn’t just about ideology; it requires comprehensive planning and absolute action. Do you know where the Genetic Federation would dispatch genetic warriors from if they mobilize?"

"Yes, the closest garrison base to Philadelphia." Suddenly, Ji Ke realized and quickly said.

Li Yi continued, "If the garrison base’s genetic warriors indeed move out and come to Philadelphia, then what we need to do is take it over while their personnel are away. Ji Ke, are you confident in infiltrating the garrison base’s intelligent system?"

He had researched it.

Everything at the garrison base was controlled by the intelligent system; whoever captured the intelligent system could control the garrison base.

"That’s a military-grade intelligent system... It has never been seen in the market. I, I have no experience with it; no, I’m not confident." Ji Ke became anxious again, stuttering, but then he added, "But I can try. The garrison base has been around for several hundred years. If the defense system of Hope Building hasn’t been updated, then it’s highly probable that the system at the garrison base hasn’t been updated either."

"With the fourth-generation Intelligent Computer Lan Ji, plus the latest smart computer I have, maybe it could succeed."

Li Yi’s eyes flickered slightly: "Then let’s take a gamble that the Genetic Federation has truly decayed. If we can take over the garrison base, we’ll gain intelligent combat soldiers, spaceships, and a sufficient amount of weapons. Hong Zhen, Hei Shi, you two go gather some manpower. It’s time for us to take action."

"No problem." Hei Shi got excited again.

"In your name, any number of people can be found. How many do you need this time?" Hong Zhen asked.

"A hundred or two hundred people will suffice. The garrison base is full of powerful genetic warriors with various weapons. Although they are already first-level genetic warriors, they have not yet matured and are not fit for combat. They just need to assist us in taking over the base," Li Yi explained.

"Got it, you can count on me; there won’t be any problems with such a number of people," Hong Zhen assured.

"Then let’s get ready and set out," Li Yi said.

He had now made a breakthrough to the Soul Realm, and his strength had greatly increased. He could be more aggressive in his actions than before, without being so cautious.

If they could take over the garrison base, it would be worth more than twenty Hope Buildings.

It was worth taking the risk.
