Chapter 1377: Chapter 1375: Crisis
With the outbreak of the predetermined war just the last [24] hours away,
Hyperion Corporation’s “Shell Shedding Plan” has reached its final stage.
The plan essentially fuses the corporation’s core with the train, so that upon detecting the arrival of outsiders, the train would imdiately be activated to transport the most important parts of the company away from the underground station, leaving only the shell of the company behind.
However,
Han Dong released a large number of tal Zombies through a net-casting approach as his eyes and ears, yet he did not detect any invaders.
He even went out of his way to dispatch a fairly capable Zombie unit to rapidly move towards Makoms City.
During this ti, they encountered no hostile forces… as if the enemy was unconcerned about the completely missing Beheading King, hunkering down and engaging in so kind of secret plan.
This sort of illogical behavior only heightened Han Dong’s unease.
“The Beheading King is a ‘King-level Force,’ a decisive chip in securing victory. Are they simply giving that up? Or do they believe the Beheading King can escape in ti… or perhaps they hold an even more important trump card?”
Han Dong also repeatedly confird the situation in the Secret Room with Little Yellow, finding no indication of escape, not even the slightest fluctuation in paraters related to ‘struggling’.
Such abnormal tranquility brewed a sense of unease.
Nonetheless, there was good news.
After devouring seven strong Ancestor Bodies through an Abyss Devouring, Green finally completely restored his injured Soul, reappearing in an almost ‘brand new’ form.
Of course, he also erged from a hole in Han Dong’s body.
Dumps, whose body was bisected, had also fully healed, and his vital signs had stabilized completely, but unable to be thrust into the frontlines of the war, he could only stay at the Hyperion Corporation to help after regaining his senses.
Of course, Han Dong had considered this as well.
In the letter to Pope nda he specifically ntioned that a human guide would be at the corporation to receive Pope and offer assistance.
After doing all this, Miss Helen imdiately fell into a deep sleep… recovering her utterly drained body through the most primitive form of sleep.
Even Green had a sowhat surprised comnt:
“Interesting, this is the first ti I’ve seen Helen willing to give so much.
In the past Elent Gas, Helen was a more dangerous person, only ever taking advantage of others through her beauty, never offering anything of herself.
This woman even tried to take advantage from
once, nearly getting herself killed, all thanks to the thing hidden within her body.”
Han Dong rely smiled secretly and did not answer.
With his full recovery, Green’s madness had also fully returned.
“Nicholas, what’s the next move? Shall we find a way to slowly deal with the imprisoned Beheading King, or do we use this train system you’ve created to strike directly at the enemy’s headquarters?”
“Our current level, even if we go all out, wouldn’t be able to kill the Beheading King, right? And it’s not possible to do as we did with the Golden Saint, throwing the Beheading King into the secret door connecting to the core of madness in your body… Too risky.
Besides, with so many dinsions between us, your connection with the core of madness should have been cut off.
If we make a move, it would also create an opportunity for escape, so let’s put aside the Beheading King matter for now.
Once the Shell Shedding Modification is fully completed, we shall carry the main departnts of the corporation to the station near London. When the war breaks out, we will quietly cut into the flanks.
As for the Secret Room Car holding the Beheading King, it will detach itself in transit and sail away from Pandora planet alone… The energy loaded on it is enough to shoot the train out of this planet, heading straight for the nearest Constant Star.”
“Hmm! A Constant Star barbecue, that’s quite a creative idea!
Alright then, let’s do as you said… How many forces do we have on hand at the mont?”
After the King-level incident, Green had also beco slightly cautious, readily accepting such a prudent plan.
Han Dong directly inserted his middle finger into Green’s head, connecting to his brain neurons through the Tentacles and sharing the shared network established by the Clown virus.
This experience made the Eye on Green’s face continuously contract, seemingly satisfied to the extre.
“Wow! So many!
Your brand of madness is truly unique; such transmissibility and Control Power is without parallel. After the ga concludes, you must co back with
to see my father.”
“Hmm…”
Han Dong readily agreed.
‘Madness’ as one of Han Dong’s major attributes, related to the subsequent Myth Construction, it was necessary to et with the Madness Ancestor.
“However, if we want to win this ga, it won’t be simple… Everything is too quiet, unnaturally quiet. There’s only one day left before the war begins, yet there’s still no sign of large-scale migration on Pandora’s planet.
The imprisoned Beheading King also hasn’t made the slightest struggle.
I have an ominous feeling that sothing big might go wrong.”
“Oh? It seems the opponent is pretty capable… But this is the difficulty that should be expected.
It is precisely the uncontrollable dangerous situations that allow
to perform a sufficiently thrilling play for my father…”
…
Switching Perspectives
In the secret tunnels less than ten kiloters away from Makoms City.
Marlon, and Alex, the two team leaders, using the Fate Item – ‘Thanatos’s Shadow Cloak,’ completely concealed their forms within the deathly chaos, swiftly moving through the shadows,
Even ‘perception’ is affected by the death influence, unable to detect the situation inside.
After a while.
A fully tallic city-state, twice the size of London, which made Marlon furrow his brows, ca into view.
The entire city-state is cloaked within a Barrier with an effect akin to a Land Deed.
“To be able to construct such a massive city-state within a different world, truly worthy of a King with a ‘technology background’… Such a hassle.”
According to the plan.
Both of them will temporarily remain hidden outside Makoms City.
As soon as the enemy forces move out in full force, they will launch a secret attack on Makoms City.
This will allow them to take advantage of the ‘ti difference’ to uproot the enemy’s kingdom-level city before London falls… They must be fast enough to return in ti to provide support.
At that ti, they will join forces with those inside London to strike the enemy caught in the middle.
However.
The expected last day before the outbreak of the war, yet the opponent still did not dispatch troops.
Marlon clenched the Hell Flask at his waist, his palms full of sweat, the sense of urgency within him growing hotter.
“Why don’t they dispatch troops yet?
Could it be that they don’t plan to attack as soon as the barriers in London are exhausted but intend to drag it out till the last mont? That shouldn’t be… By then, the world would collapse, and they would be on a road to death.”
As Marlon was puzzled.
The scene unfolding before them stunned both team leaders.
The fully tallic city, deeply rooted in the underworld, began ‘self-packaging’ like intelligent machinery.
City walls, streets, and various buildings started to fold inward in an organized and systematic manner.
It seed that the city was planned from the very beginning to perfectly fit together like Tetris blocks when folding inwards, making use of every inch of space.
In a short ti.
Makoms City transford into a sealed cube, which through the acceleration circle of the underground magnetic field, perford a ‘space jump’ and disappeared right in front of them.
“The worst-case scenario has happened!”
Marlon, gritting his teeth, was about to call his mount to rush back in the opposite direction… when Alex had already vanished.
“This is going to be difficult now! Everyone, you must hold on!”
