465: Chapter 109: Attack 465: Chapter 109: Attack After hearing the roar of the aircraft, the Black Hand Master did not move.
He did not even activate any of the prosthetic body functions that were not in normal operation.
— Stay calm, stay calm…
That was how the Black Hand Master admonished himself.
Even if there were sounds of departure, it did not an that those people had truly left.
In this era, one could simply place a cara on the spot and observe this place from a distance of a hundred ters.
If one was willing to use several repeaters, that distance could be extended to faraway places, possibly several kiloters.
Conversely, without even considering the core of the Earth, sniper rifles had a range of several kiloters.
These were not ancient tis where one could co out at ease after seeing people leave.
The Black Hand Master even forced himself into sleep once more.
Now, nothing else mattered.
His most important task was to stay alive, to leave, and then head to any place that could connect to the internet.
A large settlent, or even a city, would do.
Because this intelligence was too important.
In this area, there existed a power that nobody else knew about.
This power was not the Hero, and they did not offer support during Tao Enhai’s breakout battle.
They parasitized within the governnt’s system, even able to interfere with the decisions of the Secluded Crane Knight Order, thereby influencing the Protector.
At the sa ti, they even instigated the Green Forest.
The last point was the most unimaginable.
The most notable trait of the Green Forest included being “uncontrollable.” They were a highly cohesive group, created through technological ans of shared artificial mories.
They had high levels of trust and affection for mbers within the team but extrely excluded anything outside of the group.
Their unreasonable hatred and violence towards non-mbers made them completely uncontrollable by outsiders.
Even under the threat of martial power, many of the Green Forest would just think, “At worst, it’s just death.”
Only by destroying their will with absolute fear and despair would these Green Forest calm down a bit.
But in that state, people were like clay puppets.
Just like prisoners in concentration camps who obediently dig pits for their own mass burial, one should not expect them to carry out any complex tasks in such a state.
—To be able to instigate the Green Forest…
What kind of black technology is this…
Besides, there was the mysterious “Holy Maiden.” A person who managed to get away unscathed from underneath the King of Godspeed’s hands.
Although the two Mysterious Persons admitted that the “Holy Maiden” did not achieve this through brute strength, but rather like Tao Enhai, because of so sentintal reasons with the King of Godspeed, he would not act against her.
But this at least suggested that the “Holy Maiden” was an old monster who existed since the era of the Heroic Wars and had lived up to now.
When Tao Enhai landed on Earth, he was already severely injured by the King of Godspeed, with his brain infected by Evolu cells.
But according to the two, the “Holy Maiden” could co out “unscathed.”
She might bring complete combat power.
Such a force might have so grand conspiracy.
And now, for this grand conspiracy, they intended to instigate the Green Forest against the Hero.
This intelligence was very crucial and had to be sent back.
The Heroes must change their action plans in response to this situation.
Otherwise, not to ntion the cooling equipnt, even the Northern Heroes and the Naless Hero himself would be in danger!
Several hours later, faint startup noises and the sounds of parts moving emitted from various parts of Black Hand Master’s body.
He suddenly exerted his strength, and the surrounding soil exploded outward like shrapnel.
Black Hand Master leapt up and rolled on the ground.
His rolling direction was toward a steep slope.
The Martial Artist slid down ten ters along the slope in an instant.
Then, he arrived at a narrow and complex area.
A large spider-like construction machine slowly climbed up.
However, Black Hand Master did not retrieve it, but instead, he formatted and rebooted the machine using his Inner Strength through a wireless signal.
Imdiately after, he issued a command for the machine to clean up the traces he had left behind.
Another multi-functional engineering robot crawled onto Black Hand Master’s back, then its limbs folded and nested into Black Hand Master’s External Armor.
“Maybe I’m being overly cautious…” Black Hand Master hacked into the engineering machine he had deployed in an unconventional manner, scanning through the cara of the engineering machine.
Not thirty ters from him, there indeed was sothing resembling a cara.
“I wonder if there are any snipers waiting in the distance…
Should I destroy the cara?
Based on my experience, the likelihood of an Electromagnetic Pulse mine beneath the cara is too high.”
“When I erged from the ground earlier, I was already captured on cara.
But I have a cloak that conceals my External Armor, and the paint is also deceptive; they shouldn’t be able to directly identify .
But going back to deal with the traces now would expose even more.”
“If I assu there’s a sniper, I shouldn’t head towards the plains now…
Let’s head into the mountains.”
Thinking this, Black Hand Master climbed steadily up the steep mountain path, using the surrounding rocks to shield his body.
Before leaving, he gave one final Command to the robot—to dig beneath that cara.
Half an hour later, Black Hand Master felt an Electromagnetic Pulse coming from afar.
“As expected, there was a mine.” Black Hand Master sighed, “Those people really are harboring ill intentions.”
Heroes do use mines, but they never advocate planting them in areas where people might pass through.
If one day, so civilians trying to make a living in the Wilderness pass by and think the cara is valuable and try to pick it up, that would an at least one human life lost.
The League of Heroes plants mines where civilians are unlikely to appear and in front of military marches.
Black Hand Master had the engineering robot dig under the cara precisely to prevent this.
Black Hand Master continued to advance.
He detoured through the mountains.
Now he couldn’t follow the planned route to the eting point.
Suddenly, Black Hand Master heard an explosion.
—This area isn’t a place civilians commonly pass through…
Could it be a battle?
Black Hand Master hurriedly ran towards the site of the explosion.
The explosion was from a highly personal, non-standard vehicle, a common type of Hero’s transport.
The six-legged vehicle, designed for mountainous terrain, was now overturned on the ground, ablaze.
And a Hero was huddling at the edge of the wreckage, nervously looking around.
Thanks to his excellent Concealnt, Black Hand Master went unnoticed by the Hero.
The Hero sprang up, aiming to roll behind another cover.
But the rocks behind him suddenly exploded and shattered.
A large-caliber bullet struck the Hero in the groin, instantly shattering one of his legs!
“What…”
Black Hand Master was both shocked and furious.
