Chapter 15 Turning the Tables!!
Why is waiting also a form of attack? Because the other side is ultimately a loose collection of individuals, lacking the strong organization maintained by the common interests of a team. Quan Ben Wang |
Lacking close ties and shared interests, they might be alright with ample time, but as the thirty-six hour deadline slowly approached, the pressure they faced to avoid failure only increased!
Fang Senyan felt that it was already quite remarkable to be able to organize these scattered contractors and get them to suppress their desires and lie in wait. But if he could also get them to remain calm and wait quietly under the immense pressure of reduced all-attribute percentages resulting from mission failure, then this mastermind would be a god, not a human.
Therefore, Fang Senyan chose to wait and let Ren Baogui's time slip away. At this time, the two sides were not competing in anything else, but simply in patience. Moreover, Fang Senyan's side had the greatest advantage: in the end, they could naturally complete the task.
This completely occupied the most comprehensive initiative.
To be honest, Fang Senyan was quite wary of that mastermind at this time. That mysterious method of attack was truly difficult to defend against. If he acted rashly and lost the initiative by being suddenly attacked, Fang Senyan was not confident that he could definitely protect Mogansha or Sanzi's lives.
Similarly, the enemy's loose organization also meant that they could not withstand a sudden raid by an elite team. That would immediately shatter the morale and core that had been so painstakingly built up!
Therefore, stalemate became the main theme.
Whoever reveals a flaw first loses!
Time passed minute by minute. Even Zi and Sanzi felt anxious and uneasy. On the contrary, they could occasionally glean from some news clips on TV that the allied forces who had accepted the "Protect Sarah Connor" mission were having a great time.
These official news reports became an important channel for Fang Senyan and the others to understand the outside world. For example, a gas explosion occurred at a certain research institute. For a military enterprise, a gas explosion was like a sow climbing a tree. Something or some technology inside must have been taken away.
Another example was a gun battle between drug lords and the police on a certain street, which was likely a group of bastards farming reputation or earning titles.
Even Cyberdyne Systems, the company that produced Skynet, was harassed. Please note that it was harassment, not a breakthrough. The unlucky perpetrator seemed to have done something beyond his capabilities and ended up being carried out on a stretcher covered in a white cloth.
"These guys are really patient," Jiao Shi said, pacing anxiously with a water cup in his hand, estimating that with a little more force, the cup would shatter with a "crack."
Fang Senyan and the others were currently staying on the roof of a thirty-story building. There were rusty tin shacks built here, makeshift shacks that the building manager had built himself to earn a little extra money. The rust-corroded tin sheets rattled loudly in the wind. Anyone staying here would feel a sense of oppression.
This seemed to be a dead end, but there were three shorter buildings around it, with a distance of only ten meters or so between them. Jumping to the opposite building was not too difficult for contractors.
Moreover, Fang Senyan had great confidence in the team he had built. In this world, it would be quite difficult for anyone to defeat this group in a head-on offensive and defensive battle and send them scattering.
In the previous battle, if they hadn't had to protect the heroine's body, even if Sanzi hadn't come, Fang Senyan and Jiao Shi could have forced their way into the enemy ranks. If Zi had transformed and attacked, it would have been the other group that was scattered!
More importantly, if that mastermind was really confident in dealing with this group of people, why go to so much trouble?
What Fang Senyan knew best was that the most certain battles were not won by schemes, but by directly crushing the enemy with the momentum of "a million soldiers crossing the Yangtze River" after gaining an absolute advantage!
Faced with Jiao Shi's doubts, Fang Senyan smiled and said:
"There will always be times when they can't hold back. In fact, now that half the time has passed, I can guess where those guys are."
The black guy immediately perked up and said:
"Where?"
Before entering this world, the only unique feature of the screw cap that Fang Senyan obtained was that it had an SOS distress signal engraved on its threads, but this SOS could only be seen under a high-powered microscope.
In the Nightmare Space, even someone with a strong mind like Fang Senyan could not deduce more information from this existing clue. However, after entering this world, this screw cap began to display a series of information:
"Noxen Factory, Seventh Workshop."
There was no doubt that since the location was given, then all the stories derived from it should start from here. Based on the previous SOS clue, the time, location, and event had been fully described.
If it was really as Fang Senyan guessed, and the hidden mastermind was related to the Stockholm team, then after Fang Senyan disappeared from Los Angeles, the place where they could wait for the rabbit was here.
Fang Senyan said with a serious expression:
"Although I know those guys must be nearby, we still have to wait. Now is the time to compete in patience. Our disadvantage is that we entered this world almost a week later than them. It's hard to say what other tricks they have up their sleeves, but as of now, they shouldn't be able to find us hiding here. Whoever moves first reveals a flaw! And waiting like this is undoubtedly beneficial to us, so why not continue
to wait?"
Soon, Fang Senyan and the others' main mission completion entered the countdown stage:
Countdown one hour………
Countdown thirty minutes……….
Countdown ten minutes…………
At this time, Fang Senyan's expression also changed. Sanzi had a summon, a very strange plant familiar, which could play a role in monitoring. Sanzi planted this plant familiar inside a carrier pigeon, which could act as a mobile monitor.
And this carrier pigeon was staying on the building next to the Noxen Factory.
As of now, there was still no movement.
This had completely deviated from Fang Senyan's judgment. In Fang Senyan's previous estimation, this group of opposing rabble should have internal conflicts and chaos after the mission deadline had been advanced to ten hours!!
But even ten minutes before the countdown, it still seemed so quiet here!!
Fang Senyan felt that the situation was out of control. This was a terrible thing for him, so his throat was involuntarily dry. He squirmed until Zi very considerately handed him a glass of water, which Fang Senyan took and drank in one gulp.
"How could this be?" Fang Senyan couldn't help but mutter to himself, "My judgment can't be wrong."
"Mission completion countdown begins, 10, 9, 8, ... 1, 0!"
"Silver Team: Ace. You have completed the main mission: Rescue."
"Main mission: Rescue."
"Mission Description: Although Sarah Connor and her boyfriend did not survive the intense pursuit, their child, the future resistance leader John Connor's life was still extended. Although the trajectory of his life will undergo tremendous changes, Skynet's purpose has still not been achieved."
"Mission Evaluation: D, very clumsy! Gentlemen. You once placed Mr. John Connor in a very dangerous situation. More importantly, his mother's death will cause the future to change again. If you could have kept Reese and Sarah Connor alive. That would have been a wonderful thing!"
"Mission Rewards: 3000 Universal Points, 2 Merit Points (Extra 1 Legend Point). You are not qualified to receive the reward of free attribute points."
Fang Senyan had expected that the completion of the main mission would not be high, but his attention was still focused on the Noxen Factory!! It was still strangely calm there. There were no abnormal changes.
Fang Senyan continued to endure for another hour, his thick black eyebrows furrowed tightly, pacing back and forth anxiously in the tin house like a trapped beast. At this time, Jiao Shi and the others calmed down, not daring to make any noise for fear of disturbing him.
Suddenly, Fang Senyan grabbed a piece of iron sheet that had been turned up on the wall, tore it off, and stood there in a daze:
"I know! This guy!!! This guy is so decisive and ruthless?? I, I underestimated him. After I turned the tables on him, he immediately gave me such a blow? Let's go, we're going to the Noxen Factory!!"
Twenty minutes later, Fang Senyan and his group arrived outside the gate of this factory. There was no doubt that this also seemed to be a key military enterprise that was protected. However, for this group of people, entering the periphery without entering the core area was definitely not too difficult. The guards would hardly notice their existence.
Then Sanzi used his ability to control a dozen rats to scout the area.
Soon, these rats discovered a suspicious location in the Noxen Factory.
A place that was originally an auditorium but is now an abandoned warehouse.
The reason why this place felt suspicious was because this place... really was a place that even rats couldn't get into.
Fang Senyan and Jiao Shi took the lead and quickly stood at the entrance of this place, then opened the door with unyellow but very violent means.
That door, which looked dilapidated but was actually very strong.
Standing at the door, Fang Senyan had a very ominous premonition, because the moment the door opened, he smelled a pungent bloody smell...
This chapter was rewritten three times, three times.
This is more painful than writer's block.
Tears are streaming down my face.
Initially, I wrote about SY and the Black Hand facing off directly, but I was very dissatisfied with it myself.
Then I wrote about SY making the correct judgment and crushing the Black Hand in terms of intelligence, but I was still dissatisfied!
At this point, 6k words were scrapped.
Only the current 3k words have written the taste that I really wanted.
Time to go eat some late-night snacks.
