681: Chapter 325: Before the Battle 681: Chapter 325: Before the Battle Yuki crouched in the corner of an unnad alley, peering through the gaps in the low houses at the distant platform.
This thing was hastily constructed in a short ti.
The governnt had brought in a large quantity of explosion-proof stone cage nets—a kind of collapsible three-dinsional grid made from alloy filants and semi-closed bags made from polyr materials.
Once stretched out at the needed place and filled with sand or stones, it could form a solid wall.
It looked like a building made of blocks of dirt.
The explosion-proof walls and stone cage nets could even be stacked on top of one another to form taller structures.
The rapid advancents in modern materials science had made this thing more convenient.
It was capable of effectively resisting bullets and even explosions.
After the Cybern joined the battlefield, barbed wire and razor wire gradually retired from the history of warfare.
This technology, originally designed for flood control, beca the most mainstream defense construction on the battlefield.
Of course, it could be used for other things as well.
For example, to construct a platform.
The Lord announced within twelve hours that he would personally execute all those involved in the rebellion, the anti-human elents, without sparing a single one.
He even released a list.
But at the sa ti, he stated that if Hiroshi Matsushima appeared and fought him one-on-one on that platform, then he would specially pardon those whose involvent was not severe, rely stripping them of their protection.
This proclamation unsettled the heroes.
On that day, a heated debate erupted among the heroes.
Indeed, many heroes advocated for a rescue, at least to intervene.
Because most of the people involved were innocent.
They were not even potential supporters of the Chivalrous Power.
They had simply instinctively returned fire after Amilcare broke into their martial arts school.
Among them were even ordinary people who had been arrested during the governnt’s actions like the “Underground Area Clearance Operation” and “Block Lockdown.”
The number was even close to one hundred.
But there were also heroes who opposed the rescue.
Indeed, they agreed that those people were innocent and should not be killed like this.
However, a huge problem existed, which was that they did not have the ans to oppose Amilcare.
As the governnt continued its clean-up of the underground areas these days, even their existing strongholds were shrinking.
After all, they were just a group of ordinary heroes.
At this point, all the Fad Heroes with the real power had gone with the Naless Hero to do great deeds in Paradox City.
The few who were left here were not well-equipped.
They couldn’t even break through the governnt’s encirclent, let alone confront Amilcare from the First Heavenly Layer.
Everyone had watched Hiroshi Matsushima’s video.
It was precisely because of this that they knew they couldn’t do it.
The situation was at a standoff for the mont.
Then, Lei Daye stood up and told all the heroes that no matter what they said, he would definitely go and rescue the people, even if it ant going to his death.
“Because if we don’t stand up at this ti, then escaping from the martial arts school was aningless,” Lei Daye said.
“The governnt accuses us of building fictional things, saying it’s a great cri.
Then we’ll tell them, ‘The martial arts school’ as a collective truly exists.”
If at this ti, the martial artists of the Iron Block Style Dojo didn’t go to rescue their companions, then the “martial arts school” really didn’t exist anymore.
The heroes were just there to learn external strength.
They truly did not have as deep an understanding as those martial artists who considered the martial arts school their ho.
Ai Tielang once again stepped forward and diated between the two sides.
He said that the heroes could also be considered people from the Iron Block Style Dojo and should be treated as comrades, so they ought to join the rescue.
But at the sa ti, the martial artists of the dojo should also understand the principle of “cherishing life.”
So, the heroes and the martial artists of the dojo were divided into two groups.
One group lurked near the execution ground, and the other approached the blockade line.
According to the plan, as the execution approached and the observation of Amilcare leaving the Pine Eagle Building confird, the breakout team would make the first move, assaulting the blockade line.
If Amilcare diverted to the blockade area, those responsible for the rescue mission at the execution site would act imdiately.
If Amilcare paid no attention to that area and insisted on taking personal action, then the execution site should be abandoned, and assistance should be provided to the breakout team instead.
Ai Tielang had originally intended to include Yuki in the breakout team.
Yuki was a disciple of the Naless Hero, and, out of respect for the Naless Hero, Ai Tielang wanted to give Yuki a placent where the chance of survival was greater.
Although the strike team would face heavier firepower, at this ti of year, too many variables remained within the city, and it was always possible to be targeted by the Mobile Cavalry; it seed better to take a risk in the Wilderness.
But Yuki persuaded Ai Tielang otherwise.
“I really didn’t expect you to actually stay here, Young Hero.” Lei Daye was lying next to Yuki.
This was the closest position they could find to the high platform.
This ti, Old Master Zhao broadcasted the event live.
Given his recent record of flattening the Martial Arts School district, no one dared to spectate the event.
If the Heroes got too close, they would imdiately expose themselves.
So, they could only gaze from a few hundred ters away from the place of execution.
Once the fight broke out, they would have to cover such a long distance to reach the side of those who were imprisoned.
It seed like a nine-to-one chance of death.
And to add the task of breaking out with the captives…
It was a certainty of death.
Therefore, Lei Daye was quite baffled.
He had never t Xiang Shan, but he knew from the daily words and deeds of the Heroes that Yuki’s master was a big figure in Jianghu.
He couldn’t figure out Yuki’s reason for being here.
“After all, the breakout team is facing heavy firepower at the blockade line; it’s more convenient for Heroes with Heavy Prosthesis or gun experts to break through.” Yuki explained, “My cybernetic enhancent rate isn’t even maxed out yet, and it’s more likely for to blend into the crowd on this side.”
This was the logic Yuki used to persuade Ai Tielang.
However, Liu Ri’s enhancent rate was higher, so he couldn’t use the sa reasoning.
Moreover, his specialty in engineering as the Burrow Dragon ant that the breakout team had to take him along.
Yuki entrusted Panic to Liu Ri.
“I think it’s not that simple,” Lei Daye said.
Yuki nodded, “After all, Han Zhun is my brother.”
“Alright then.”
“By the way, what do you think, will Matsushima Instructor show up?”
Lei Daye’s tone was very certain: “If Grand Master Uncle learns of the news, he will certainly co out.
Maybe he’ll have the chance to slay that lord this ti.”
Yuki nodded, “That would be strong support indeed.”
The two of them used these words to soothe their own emotions.
However, they did not see that a Martial Artist was approaching them from a dead angle out of everyone’s line of sight.
At this mont, a burst of gunfire suddenly ca from afar.
Lei Daye stood up, astounded, “What’s happened?
Why… it’s not ti for action yet?”
