"Ah? The cha?"
Wicket and the others responded, bewildered.
"Yes, wait until 11:30, and then go out on ti. Once you get the cha, head straight for the underground city exit to join the main force, and finally, attack the Central Castle directly!"
"Alright!"
Wicket and the others nodded in agreent, despite how absurd it sounded.
"Rember, just do as I instructed, you don't have to worry about anything else."
Su Ming instructed Wicket.
"Mm-hmm."
Wicket replied, feeling a bit apprehensive inside.
"I'm leaving now."
After Su Ming finished instructing them, he hurriedly left and headed toward the Defense Bureau.
...
Not long after, Su Ming erged from the Defense Bureau.
Celeste eagerly asked.
"Can we go get the Energy Crystals now?"
"Yes, let's go!"
Su Ming dashed rapidly towards the Central Castle.
"There are patrolling guards on the street to the right at the crossroads ahead, equipped with first-generation Exoskeleton Armor, numbering five people."
Celeste accurately indicated.
Su Ming imdiately changed direction and detoured through another street.
Soon after, Su Ming approached the Central Castle, which appeared quite majestic, with the main structure connected to the towering walls.
Searchlights were set up on the castle walls, continuously illuminating the ground below, while nurous patrolling soldiers moved above.
Su Ming dodged the searchlights' beams while speedily rushing towards the castle.
On the castle walls, several patrolling soldiers yawned as they walked and casually chatted.
"Hey, I heard that at today's banquet, Lord City Master Ankore invited a lot of noblewon, each very beautiful. Unfortunately, we can't even take a look, let alone taste them."
"Stop dreaming, we won't get a chance in this lifeti. Maybe next ti, aim for a better rebirth, and we might have an opportunity."
"I was just saying!"
...
While they were chatting.
Whoosh!
A fleeting shadow swept past at remarkable speed.
"Huh? Did sothing just pass by?"
One soldier asked in confusion.
"You're seeing things, nothing passed by."
"Oh, then I must've been mistaken."
....
At that mont inside the castle, in the luxurious corridor.
Su Ming moved quickly inward, with Sally's voice constantly sounding.
"Keep moving forward, don't worry about the caras—I've infiltrated them all. Just avoid people and don't get seen."
"Mm!"
Following Sally's directions, Su Ming continued roaming inside the castle.
Soon, he smoothly arrived in front of the reserve vault; the thick tal security door was tightly closed.
Beep beep~
At this mont, the indicator light on the thick tal door automatically turned green.
The door then opened.
Su Ming walked straight in, and the tal door automatically closed behind him.
"I really envy the Heavenly Revelation Divine Country, their security facilities are so weak, yet it's okay. The Federation spent so much to upgrade their equipnt, and they still can't withstand the invasion of the chanical Clan."
Sally couldn't help but complain.
"It's normal, since they're targeted."
Su Ming's gaze swept toward the storage room.
One by one, blue Energy Crystals emitting a faint halo ca into view, numbering in the hundreds—a very considerable amount.
"Go ahead."
Su Ming glanced around and said to Sally.
Sally then floated above the Energy Crystals, her entire body emitting a faint halo.
Next, all the Energy Crystals lit up, and their energy was completely extracted and gathered into Sally's body.
Minutes later, all the Energy Crystals shattered, turning into a pile of waste stones.
"Done!"
Excitedly responded Sally.
"How much charged?"
Su Ming asked with a smile.
"Charged to 17%, barely enough."
Replied Sally, feeling quite pleased.
Then Su Ming glanced at the ti and said.
"We can start now!"
"Good!"
...
Inside the Defense Bureau's hangar.
Rows of Light Guard and Iron Followers quietly rested in their spots.
Sizzle!
Scarlet electronic eyes suddenly lit up without warning.
All fifty chas activated and neatly proceeded towards the hangar doors.
Outside the hangar doors.
Two soldiers driving Iron Followers leaned against the wall, chatting idly.
"So sleepy, I really want to go back to bed."
"It's still early, hang in there."
...
While they were chatting.
Boom!
With a massive explosion, the tightly shut hangar doors were blasted open.
The two soldiers controlled their cha in shock, looking in that direction. After the explosion subsided, they saw a Light Guard cha erge with a group of Iron Followers charging out.
"What's going on? Why did the chas start on their own?"
"No idea, run fast!"
...
The two soldiers were terrified to the extre; just as they wanted to maneuver their chas to turn and flee.
Bam bam~
A barrage of dense bullets poured down on them.
Rumble~
Instantly, the two Iron Follower chas were blasted to pieces.
...
Inside the empty warehouse.
Wicket and the others all huddled inside, constantly checking the old chanical pocket watch in their hands—it's already 11:25.
"Big brother, ti's almost up, should we head out?"
A thin, dark-skinned, energetic young man said nervously.
"Uton, what's the rush? There's still 5 minutes left. We'll head out in 5 minutes."
Wicket told Uton.
"Alright."
Uton promptly nodded.
As ti ticked by, soon 4 minutes had passed, and outside ca clanking sounds unmistakably from the chas.
Uton and the others' hearts instantly tightened.
This ti, it's precisely 11:30.
"Charge out!"
Wicket, without hesitation, led Uton and the others to rush out of the warehouse.
As they dashed out, they were dumbfounded, only to see a swarm of chas wielding Blast chanical Guns coming towards them, promptly surrounding them and spreading out around Wicket and the others.
