The ground team finally arrived at the first stage target point in the Player plan: the Southern City CNC Center.
"How's it going?"
"There is no one. It has been confirmed by the Pioneer Team and the High Platform Team that the environment is safe."
"——Understood. Hank, start hacking."
"yes."
Hank took the mobile fort off his back, fully unfolded it, and opened the table inside the shield——
Inside is the keyboard and screen.
Hank quickly took out the connection cable from the table and connected to the CNC center server.
"Black sheep out of the wall." Hank typed out the startup command for the deciphering program in his computer. Huge amounts of data began to flow on the screen, and eventually a countdown appeared.
Hank adjusted his glasses: "Three minutes."
——The handsomeness of engineering geniuses is reflected in these aspects. As a writer, Jiang Yan couldn't help but sigh.
——
Now, the most disadvantageous factor for everyone in Black Steel is that they are almost completely "blind" - the Player in the command position cannot even determine their position - he can only rely on voice reports.
In this case, let alone real-time command, even a rescue operation is impossible.
The first phase of the mission is to connect the Black Steel system to the city network so that Player can obtain clearer intelligence.
Hank lit up the round button next to his collar - this was the locator he gave everyone before the mission started.
"Please activate the beacons on your body - the positioning system will be online soon." Hank looked at the screen: "Player, you should be able to see the positioning over there."
"The signal is stable." Player confirmed: "The city management system has been connected. Let me see..."
"...What's going on with his grandma?"
Hank looked at the map on the screen and his eyes widened:
In the data accessed by the city's pipeline system, the barracks and water and electricity center areas in the city were covered in black, and there was no response to Hank's system access.
"Is this controlled by their information people?"
Hank's throat rolled: "I'm afraid not... The way it was completely disconnected and unresponsive... it must have been destroyed."
"...According to the plan, continue to move forward." Player's voice became much colder.
"Bypassing all important buildings, the original additional goal of restoring the urban system will be completely abandoned from now on - focusing on the core mission."
There's something wrong with this place... Player's back felt a little cold:
For some unknown reason, this chessboard had already been destroyed when it was put up.
And how deep is the impact of this destruction?
——————————
Archer put the arrow on the bowstring.
The wind direction is west, the wind speed...
Silently calculating the environmental impact in his mind, he fully drew the bowstring——
"...hit the target."
The unknown armed man was hit by the arrow shot by Archer, and the arrow penetrated his throat and was nailed to the wall. The body lying on the ground twitched strangely, making Archer's eyes feel unnatural.
One of the ground team's flankers dragged the body into an alley where it would not be discovered.
"The target is dead and has no communication device or identification on him."
After a pause, the "corpse collector" said:
"...Well done, Archer. Thank you for your hard work."
——It's Nate.
"No..." Archer still couldn't feel the so-called sense of accomplishment of success. He only felt that his throat felt dry and something seemed to be gushing out of his stomach.
This is the third arrow he has shot since just now - each time it kills with one hit.
This is the third person he has killed in his life.
Thank God, he couldn't see as clearly as usual under the night. He felt that this probably made him feel a lot more comfortable.
If he were to dispose of the body...he would definitely spit it out.
"There is no target in front of the road. We have arrived in front of the target monastery."
Jessica’s voice doesn’t sound so natural either:
"...The high platform group requested to move to the ground."
"Permission to move." The commander approved.
"Thanks for your hard work."
No...this situation is not right!
Player only had doubts in his heart, and his voice just now was all pretending to be calm——
There are too few people!
Even if we ordered to avoid major buildings and avoid fighting, the enemy density is really...
Have they spread throughout the city?
Or are they... No, if they only control the main buildings, then why is there no one in the CNC center?
——It can only mean that they are short of manpower. If they have enough manpower, there is no reason why they cannot control the whole city.
But how did so few people conquer Illaina?
Is it a coincidence?
Help from outside?
Moreover, there has been no reaction from the residents since entering the city - it is too quiet!
It was as if everyone was asleep and was not awakened by any offensive movements——
Something's wrong...
Can't explain...
However, this mission has entered the final moment.
