Chapter 125: Chapter 117: Wandering Dragon!

Beep—Beep—Beep—

"Biotechnology Building is entering a secure state, combat robots will be activated soon, staff please stay in place."

"Biotechnology Building is entering a secure state..."

"What now! I just counted, there are at least over 100 armed soldiers stationed downstairs! Not to mention those two Scorpion-tailed Lions!"

"This is the Biotechnology Building! They’re actually opening fire directly!"

Jack asked as he ran, and V, annoyed by the question, said, "Stop talking shit! Shoot anyone you see!"

"V, don’t take it out on me..."

As Lille ran, he found the structural diagram of the building from the database he just copied from Koch’s computer—

"Target marked—there might be some... The enemy hackers are connecting, I’ll switch to another account."

Right now, the Biotechnology Building had been forced into an emergency state under manual control. Lille had to keep finding unblocked access ports to send commands and gather information.

Morton gave Lille 13 employee accounts, clearly the enemy hackers guessed they came in through the windows.

But the enemy didn’t know exactly which accounts Lille had, so they could only patch gaps in real time online.

This process was real-time offensive and defensive, unlike the script battles from uploading Magic Doll. In such an environment, no one had the spare computing power to passively run fast Magic Doll scripts.

The hackers’ computing power was a major factor—

Lille showed a serious expression.

The opponent’s computing power was extremely strong, either highly talented or highly cybernetic, or both.

But in network offensives and defenses, the weaker side often wouldn’t realize their weakness until the outcome was clear.

Although the robot deployment information inside the building was intermittent, Lille always got the information he wanted—

Even though there were differences in brain implants, Lille still slightly outperformed his opponents!

"Jack, V, target location uploaded, get ready to fire!"

The two rushed forward, raising their Achilles Precision Rifles—

Two combat robots dashed out from the corner, but before they could complete their target lock, they were shot down!

However, as the three of them dashed out from the corner, they were met with gunfire!

Bang bang bang—

The heavy sound of bullets piercing glass and the sound of smashing glass mixed together!

At this moment, Lille also increased the power wall of Si Anweisitan, not only doubling the computing speed but also greatly enhancing his reaction time.

V and Lille almost instantly crouched behind cover!

Jack took two solid hits, crashed to the ground, and stumbled behind a pillar, feeling himself in panic—

"Jack?"

"Damn it... I’m fine." Jack felt the spots where he was hit, noticing his clothes were burnt by the electromagnetic ammunition.

Luckily, although the opponent also used Achilles, the bullets lost much kinetic energy piercing through the tempered glass, failing to penetrate the subdermal armor, leaving only dents.

Realizing this, Lille suddenly shouted, "V, toss the raccoon dog to Jack! They can’t get through Jack’s armor—Jack, give us some cover!"

Hearing the command, Jack and V immediately tossed the other gun from their backs to each other.

The raccoon dog’s sniper rifle was set up, and a ferocious bullet instantly pierced through the glass—

Boom!

A soldier dropped dead, but their bullets on Jack had minimal effect.

With this new plan, V’s actions were bolder.

She directly activated Si Anweisitan, with a gun in each hand firing near the glass!

Bang bang!

Another two soldiers fell, and a firepower vacuum appeared. Lille quickly dashed through the crossfire area, raising Yinglong to aim at the elevator—

The elevator dinged open, and four robots made by Kantao stood neatly inside, welcoming a wave of smart bullets from Kantao.

A small EMP exploded in the elevator. Even if Yinglong’s bullets were a bit weak for robots, the EMP had strong lethality. The four robots immediately collapsed, and the elevator blacked out!

After Jack and V took out the soldiers by the window, they caught up, and the three ran into the stairwell, heading toward the 78th floor.

Their target was on the 79th floor, but the area above the 79th floor had the highest level permissions, available only to top-level personnel like Koch—

Unfortunately, Koch had already been ordered home, with her permissions revoked. Even the access token she somehow acquired only worked till the 78th floor.

They had to reach the 78th floor first and then find a way up.

V rushed to catch up with Lille: "Damn it—you didn’t mention someone would ambush us by the window!"

"That’s Military Science’s own people, not on the Biotechnology subnet."

This meant Military Technology’s hackers and Biotechnology’s hackers operated on two separate networks, with the hackers assisting Military Science using themselves as a bridge, connecting the two combat networks.

If Lille could hack into that hacker’s gateway, he could use them as a springboard to infiltrate the military soldier’s system.

This approach of using oneself as the bridging gateway showed that the hacker was very confident.

And they had the grounds for it. The Terrorist Mobile Team had the most advanced ICE as their firewall. As long as they didn’t screw up, the Terrorist Mobile Team headquarters was almost immune to physical invasion.

"Damn it... Got better gear? There are 12 robots outside the stairwell, positions marked, prepare to take another route!"

Instructions appeared in Jack and V’s prosthetic eyes—

The two once again threw out their weapons, switching in their hands to Achilles Rifles, and rushed out of the stairwell, immediately opening fire!

Smart bullets and rail bullets both fired to the left, and the three quickly dodged to the right.

Under precise fire deployment, the blockade on the right side of the office was lacking in firepower, and the robots began redeploying—

All the robots on the floor were rushing over; it was impossible to break through head-on!

But Lille only needed to buy a few seconds.

Jack switched back to Sadara, aiming at the nearby wall and fired—according to the structural diagram, this wall was structurally weak and easy to shoot through!

Boom!

The bullets pounded the wall like a honeycomb, then Jack put away his weapon and slammed the wall with his gorilla arms!

Boom!

A large hole was smashed through!

The robots’ blockade line tightened, but the three didn’t plan to go the normal route!

This unorthodox breakthrough route was clearly not in the defense plan! The hacker had to spend more effort adjusting the defense line—

But he was a hacker, not a battlefield commander!

Their slow but steady advance pushed forward, and although all the floor’s security robots were mobilized, they kept finding gaps!

Boom!

Another wall was smashed open, and the three rushed into the office near the wall.

The Scorpion-tailed Lion Floating Car arrived at the window again, but the three didn’t pause, smashing the office door and running inside.

The building was enormous, the Scorpion-tailed Lion chased round and round—it took a long time just to fly past the building!

The enemy wasn’t trapped within any encirclement at all!

The commander in the floating car cursed, "Damn it, what the hell is going on, what are these hackers doing?

We’re like running naked on the battlefield! Why aren’t the regional isolation gates being lowered?!"

...

Explosions erupted in the Biotechnology Building.

On a floating car of the Terrorist Mobile Team, Inspector Rory asked with interest, "So many people can’t handle a few small-time crooks? What’s the situation inside."

The hacker frowned, but this detail was hidden under the tactical helmet covering his eyes.

"The opposite side has a hacker too, and they have access accounts for Biotechnology. Their computing speed is fast, Biotechnology’s hacker can’t stop them, the isolation wall is jammed, only the stairwells and elevators are sealed.

I can’t find the intrusion route, only that the hacker is stealing troop deployment information through people inside the building.

The opposition’s tactical skills are not low, and they have strong combat abilities. Military Science might not be able to take them down—before they run out of ammo."

Hearing this, Inspector Rory’s mouth curved upwards.

"Impressive."

Yes, those in the car found it amusing and didn’t think the problem was too serious.

Even the cursing commander of Military Science was merely embarrassed.

After all, the enemy only had three people.

Once their position was exposed, no matter how they infiltrated, they couldn’t sneak out the same way.

The external troops held back because of concerns over Biotechnology, remaining relatively restrained.

Once they left the building, let alone the full lockdown forces on the ground, the two floating Scorpion-tailed Lions wouldn’t let them escape.

As for the firefight inside the building, there were just three of them, how much ammo could they have?

Their advantage was time-limited.

To be honest, Inspector Rory was eager to personally engage, but the company had its own plans. But now things were different.

The potential collateral damage might increase significantly, and Biotechnology might have to change their plans.

Moreover—those three people could really fight, they were exactly the kind of talent the Terrorist Mobile Team needed.

"Headquarters, the target’s combat capability needs reevaluation, requesting early engagement."

Rory then told the hacker, "Forget what’s inside, connect to the criminal investigation unit. I want to know what they’ve been up to outside."

The hacker agreed, and his armor suit retracted, revealing large cooling components on his back.

Then he connected to the deep dive interface.
