Chapter 150: Race against time
The next morning, before dawn, the law enforcement department of District 17 was on high alert.
The private plane that greets Princess Sun to the First District will arrive at the roof at 10:30, which means that the last chance for the rebels will come.
Captain Doug and Chief Snake worked together to plan the defense of the Enforcer's headquarters.
After learning the identity of the opponent's hackers, they had to deactivate all electronic equipment, and a large number of weapons given to them by Tesla Technology were all useless in this battle, and even the surveillance video stopped working at the request of Director Lu.
The non-stop patrol team, the armed with loaded guns, this battle made the law enforcers seem to go back to more than ten years ago.
Although the opponent this time was the rebels, with Director Lu personally in charge, everyone's hearts were much more steady.
Unlike several supervisors in the past, whenever something big happens, Director Lu will always be on the front line, instead of hiding in a safe house and giving orders.
At this moment, Director Lu personally guarded Princess Lieyang's side.
What about the Resistance?
You have Eschenweg as a backer, but they are not vegetarians, and the 17th arrondissement has the number one person who is a "zealous citizen".
With such a stir today, perhaps they will be able to witness the heroic posture of the "enthusiastic citizens" in battle.
The tension lasted until 10:10, and everyone knew that this was the last calm before the storm, and the closer you got to the arrival of the private jet, the more likely the rebels were to make a move.
At this last moment, Lu Xiang emptied the entire building of civilian personnel, and in less than 5 minutes, the corridor was empty, leaving only a long dead silence.
At the same time, Song Lan walked into the small conference room where Lieyang was, holding a tray with a glass of milk on it.
"Ready to go?"
Blazing Sun looked at him with a blank look in his eyes, the same state they had been in when they had talked about the fall of the Twelfth Capital.
"In a quarter of an hour, in order to make you feel at home in the 17th arrondissement, we will provide you with a drink service before you board your flight, and today is an all-you-can-drink milk day."
"Put it there."
Lieyang glanced at the coffee table in front of the sofa.
Overall, she wasn't happy with her trip to District 17 and was about to leave, and she hadn't been able to personally deal with the rebels who were following her, but none of that mattered compared to the ultimate goal of going to District 1.
Nothing was more important than going to District 1, and no one could stop her from making it to District 1.
"Huh? Isn't there a quarter of an hour left? You go out first. ”
"It is true that there is still a quarter of an hour before the plane sent by the coalition government arrives."
But there were less than ten seconds left until 10:15.
Song Lan didn't have the slightest intention of withdrawing, and Lieyang responded with practical actions - the moment she raised her eyebrows, even if she didn't do anything, the temperature in the entire conference room jumped by more than ten degrees.
After reading the manual sent to Lu Xiang's tablet by the rebels, he realized that if Lieyang fought with all his might, it would not be a backstreet that would be destroyed.
"I'm just outside, if you have any questions, you can call me directly."
He turned, silently counting down the countdown.
When I walked to the door and opened the door of the conference room, there was a sound like an electronic short circuit behind me.
Lu Xiang brought all the items needed for this operation.
A sterilized dagger, hemostatic spray, and some props for simple bandaging.
Almond poked his head in through the doorway, and although he didn't theoretically have a heartbeat in his current state, he felt his blood boiling all over his body, as if he had come to life.
Unlike in the past, when he provided food for law enforcers and helped watch the wind when he infiltrated, this time, he really contributed as a law enforcer, and everything he did at the moment is likely to affect the future direction of this city and even the world.
"Ready to get started."
Song Lan's calm voice calmed Elmon's mood a little.
Without the slightest hesitation, Song Lan began this alternative operation, the sterilized dagger cut a knife on the forearm of the hot sun, and what flowed out was not blood, but a mixture of blood and some dark blue solution.
The blade could only cut through the surface of Lieyang's skin, and like all high-level prosthetics, Lieyang's bones and musculature had also undergone a major transformation, and Song Lan suspected that non-anti-weapon weapons would be difficult to break through.
It is worthy of the humanoid weapon that the coalition government has in mind.
But then it's time to get down to business.
Unlike the previous tidal wave of psionic energy, this time, the psionic energy spread extremely slowly, and they flowed into the body of the sun along the wound in the forearm.
Almost at the same time, he was met with resistance from the Sun Psionic Power.
Even in a state of system shutdown, Lieyang still frowned unconsciously.
Song Lan didn't notice the change in Lieyang's demeanor, he was distracted at the moment, behind the "wall" made of skin and muscle tissue, there was a completely different world, and he had already glimpsed the whole picture of this world when he was in the Rainforest Prosthetic Hospital yesterday.
The parasite implanted in the body of the sun is hiding somewhere in this world at the moment, and it is very likely that it is still changing its direction.
The next moment, the psionic energy that was pouring into him from the sun itself suddenly stopped.
"Elmond, do it."
For Almon, who was watching from the sidelines, it was as if only a second had passed.
He didn't have time to hesitate, the chart of the human body was already engraved in his mind.
He could vaguely sense that something was moving at high speed in the sun's body, getting closer and closer to their intended "destination".
This whole process is only a few seconds long.
It was also the first time that Almond had understood his abilities in this way, but reality left him no time to think about it, and he had to seize this fleeting opportunity.
Here it comes!
If it weren't for the spirit state, Almon felt that his heart would have risen to his throat.
"Come out for me!"
It stands to reason that he doesn't need to shout the name of the move when he activates his ability, but this voice is essentially cheering himself up, and he still remembers what Song Lan said to him last night:
"I'll use those fifteen minutes to get the parasites in the princess's body through that place, and the rest is up to you."
He must not fail Master's trust in him.
The next moment, the movement in Lieyang's abdomen completely disappeared, and almost at the same time, a palm-sized mechanical scorpion fell into the room with its teeth and claws, its body still stained with blue-brown viscous liquid, and it didn't seem to understand what was happening when it landed.
Before it could make any other moves, the dagger in Lu Xiang's hand passed through its back, and the blow was so hard that it was directly nailed to the wall of the conference room.
The scorpion hissed, and after a few flicks of the pincers, it stopped moving.
