Chapter Seventy-Two: Separate Actions
In the middle of the night on Lake Valyria, two small boats were heading northwest with two groups of people.
On a ship sat six members of the main commando team: captain Estelle, experienced Kim, AgatΓ© who had just stepped into a new realm, Olivier with excellent judgment, Cherazade, a master of magic, and Cruz as a guide.
On the other boat, there were three people as feints, Haliga, Fye, and Kevin. All three are adept at stealth operations, and each has ranged attack and containment abilities. The two dinghies were about fifty centimeters apart, like dragonflies in two pools of water on the lake that gradually became foggy.
"That's it." In the direction Cruz pointed, the outline of the Society's secret base was clearly visible, and there was a shoal nearby from which to go ashore.
"You just go through the side door...... We have observed that the windows and vents are very high, and you will not be able to get in from there. Cruz said.
"Really...... In this case, we have to be more careful. Kim nodded, and took the lead in pushing open the metal door on the side.
"So, you three ......" Although Cruz has recovered a lot of physical strength, he is not yet able to participate in the battle, so although he has a strong desire to fight, he can only sit on the boat stupidly, "What are you going to do?" β
"In my opinion, they may not encounter very serious resistance inside." Heliga said as he looked at the seemingly sturdy steel fortress.
"I think so too." Kevin continued, "Judging from all the traces, the Society's experiments here are about to enter the final stage...... So they probably won't be committing a lot of troops here. After that, their purpose should be shifted, and this is nothing more than an abandoned place. β
"yes...... And after Mr. Cruz's unsuccessful attack and the escape of one of them, they should have understood that their presence was about to be exposed. At that time, even if it is an association, if it is facing the encirclement and suppression of the Kingdom Army head-on, I am afraid it will not end well. Fei nodded.
"At least that's how powerful they've shown so far. Even Levy, in the face of the overwhelming attacks of the regular army, could not escape the fate of defeat, let alone those ordinary executors. A squad of ordinary soldiers of a few dozen people, or even a few hundred people, may be able to handle it, but if it is a regular army under the personal command of Cassius......" Kevin did not continue, and said that.
"So, are they about to leave here and take the equipment they need...... In this way, they should encounter some mechanical monsters inside. The analysis of the three of them made sense, and Cruz finally breathed a sigh of relief, but the biggest stone in his heart had not yet landed: "I don't know what happened to the three of them?" β
"Then leave it to them. They must be fine. "I'm more curious about how they're going to get out than that......," said Heliga, reassuring There doesn't seem to be any natural terrain in the area where you can use it as a port, so you can only do it by air. β
"The roof is a flat structure, so maybe there will be an apron." Kevin judged the basic elements of the building and concluded, "If you can go up to the roof...... Forehead ......" Speaking of this, Kevin's eyes showed a trace of embarrassment: "Mr. Cruz seems to have said just now that there is no way to ......"
"Fei, no problem, right?" Heiliga smiled confidently and glanced at the girl beside her, who smiled the same way, and a set of climbing equipment appeared in her hand.
"That's ...... No, it can't be...... That's not ......" Cruz looked in amazement at the equipment that appeared in Fei's hand, something he had only seen in one kind of person - members of the famous "Zephyr Brigade".
"Does Mr. Cruz know this? Yes, this is the standard for the members of Zephyr. At this point, Fei is no longer afraid to tell the truth to her companions, "But now I am not...... I'll talk about it later, but for now, let's fight side by side. β
"Ah...... It's ......" The girl's indifferent and resolute attitude made Cruz feel embarrassed, and while dispelling the surprise in his heart, he secretly thought, he must ask Estelle and them when he goes back.
"I'm relatively light, so let me try to choose where to climb. I'll come back to you when I'm done. With that, Fei ran to the outer wall of the fortress and began to observe it carefully.
"There are six executors...... With Mr. King and Olivier in place, with Cherazade and AgatΓ© as support, and vigilant enough, if you want to take them down, you need at least three executors. "So it seems that if they really have an ambush, then there should be three remaining executors, plus the legendary professor." β
"If that Sword Emperor wasn't among them, I think the three of us would still be able to fight...... Of course. Helliga glanced at Kevin, "If someone is willing to show some real skills, I don't think the Sword Emperor should be afraid." β
"Hehe, you're exalting me too much." Kevin pretended to be stupid and resolved the young man's forced question, "That Sword Emperor is really terrifying...... I'm no match for him. β
"Hmph...... Never mind. Knowing that nothing would come of it if this conversation continued, Heiliga decisively changed the subject, and he saw that Fei was already walking towards this side, "Oh, it looks like she has found out." β
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ-
In fact, Heliga and Kevin's worries were completely unnecessary. Of the six executors, Luciola and Valut had already followed Kempareira to meet the super weapon of the doctor they were talking about, and they were not in the fortress; Bloblan's whereabouts are unknown, but he is probably going to have fun somewhere, and the only people who actually stay in this fortress are Levi, Ling, and the professor himself. At this moment, Wiseman was staring at the large and small screens in the main control room with great interest - although Estelle and the others worked hard to eliminate their own breath and stealth their actions, and did not let the large number of humanoid weapons arranged in large numbers be discovered, but after all, they would not be invisible, so their every move was still clearly captured by various miniature cameras and projected onto the screen in the room where the three of them were.
"Well, they can't do it at all...... No, it's that my research isn't enough. Watching the three guerrillas who had been implanted with hints easily defeated by everyone, and then recovered with the help of Kim, Wiseman shook his head dissatisfied, "Next time, ......"
ββ¦β¦ Well? What's that? Ling pointed to Father Kevin's actions on the screen, "What kind of secret technique does that bear-like uncle know?" Professor, your hints don't work at all. Ling didn't hesitate to sarcastically mock Wiseman.
"Is it a titan...... Indeed, I didn't expect that in addition to the new Ding of the Star Cup, they also had someone who could deal with this problem. Wiseman disagreed, "But I'm still curious, why didn't the newcomer to the Order come with them?" β
"This ...... I don't know. Levi shook his head, "What about the guerrillas they saved compared to that?" β
"It's a boring farce anyway, so throw away useless waste and props. Anyway, they are all seriously injured guys, so there is no threat. Wiseman said coldly, his hint just now unlocked the "valve" that the three of them usually deliberately had in their senses, allowing them to fight with strength and speed beyond the limits of their bodies, even if everyone was cautious, they still had to inflict a lot of damage on them to subdue them. Now they have long lost most of their combat effectiveness.
"They're here...... Ling's eyes lit up, "So...... Professor, Professor, hurry up and send out the invitation. β
