Chapter 16: Prison Break



Relying on the map Qian Hu had given her from memory, Chu Yao made her way safely to a door. On the door panel were three large characters:

Distribution room.

Chu Yao raised her hand and looked at her watch. It was 8:57.

Wait three more minutes, the show is about to begin.

I don’t know if these celestial guards had been at ease for too long or were just too careless, but the door of the distribution room was not locked at all. Chu Yao walked in with a swagger and even studied the crooked wires on the ground.

The moment the hour hand of the watch turned to 9, Chu Yao pinched her fingers and a fireball instantly ignited on her right hand. The surging heat wave caused the air around the flame to distort.

With the cultivation level of the third level of Qi Refining, one can already use many small spells, such as the Fire Exorcism Spell, which is much more economical than exploding spirit stones!

"Go!"

Chu Yao took three steps back and swung her right hand, sending the fireball hurtling towards the rows of electrical boxes. The moment they made contact, there was a dull thud like a heavy object falling into water, followed by countless tiny sparks that crackled and exploded, making her hair stand on end.

Chu Yao hurriedly exited through the door she had come in. The moment she flew out, a large explosion erupted in the power distribution room. Puffs of thick smoke accumulated in the small room, slanting out through the only exit and quickly filling the corridor.

The moment the explosion occurred, every street light in the mine went out, and even the patrol lights from the tops of the three watchtowers stopped!

The entire mine was instantly shrouded in darkness.

"What's going on? A power outage?!"

"Ahem, the underground distribution room is on fire! Hurry and get a fire extinguisher!"

"All miners, listen up! Return to your rooms immediately, otherwise—Ah!!"

One of the Celestial Guards reacted quickly. He picked up a loud speaker and started shouting near the shelter, but before he could finish his words, he was cut in the neck by someone who was approaching in secret!

Similar things were happening all over the mine. Before the power outage, the people arranged by Qian Hu gathered in groups of three or four near the patrolling guards, ready to go.

And the power outage is the clarion call for attack!

A burst of gunfire coming from nowhere intensified the chaos. Fighting and shouting were heard everywhere, and flames continued to ignite from various locations. The mine, which was peaceful and orderly in the morning, turned into a hell on earth in an instant!

Those who knew the inside story were carrying out the plan in an orderly manner, while those who did not were also excited: some people grabbed guns and fired indiscriminately, some went straight to the cafeteria to grab food, and more people rushed to the south gate, knocking frantically with manuscripts and wooden sticks, trying to find a way to survive!

Beneath the apparent calm, everyone had been suppressed for too long. The entire Beishan Mine was like a furnace being roasted by a low fire. It looked stable from the outside, but in fact, the flames were already boiling fiercely inside. It only took an opportunity for the flames to surge out and burn the furnace and the people burning it to ashes!

And now, the opportunity has come.

Chu Yao went to the next destination without stopping, throwing a few fireballs from time to time while walking on the road. One wooden house after another was burning. Some people were howling excitedly on the roadside. It was simply a carnival of sinners.

There are only two power supply sources in the entire mine. Chu Yao and her senior sister are responsible for one each. Her senior sister is also responsible for handling the backup motor.

The power outage was only the first step. As Qian Hu had said before, his men would deal with the remaining guards. Internal forces were easy to deal with, but the difficult part was getting external reinforcements!

After the power outage, the signal towers and wireless networks near the mine will be paralyzed, which will prevent mobile phones and computers from communicating with the outside world and block all attempts to seek help.

But there is an exception. Just in case, each Yari Company officer in charge of the mining area will be individually equipped with a satellite phone. This phone operates based on an independent system that is different from ordinary communication methods. It can avoid ordinary interference and directly request reinforcements from the company headquarters in Tianhai City through artificial satellites in planetary orbit!

Chu Yao listened to the general idea. Although she didn't understand the operating principle of the satellite phone, she still knew exactly what she needed to do:

Behead!

When shooting a person, shoot the horse first; when capturing a thief, capture the leader first!

Now that Commander Zou has left, the satellite phone may have been handed over to the assistant who still remains here.

Qian Hu said he would do this personally to avoid any accidents. But Chu Yao and her senior sister discussed it and decided that it would be safer to come over and provide support after completing their own mission.

Chu Yao and her senior sister met halfway, nodded to each other, and headed straight to where Qian Hu was.

The two walked side by side through the flames and thick smoke, and in the blink of an eye they arrived at a two-story villa. Senior Sister had used some tricks on Qian Hu beforehand, so the two of them quickly found him in front of the door leading to the basement.

Qian Hu and several of his confidants were standing at the door, anxiously pacing around with restless looks on their faces. The guns in their hands had already been emptied of bullets, but they could do nothing about the iron gate in front of them.

Seeing the two people coming, Qian Hu finally breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that things might still turn around, but then this breath was blocked by the voice coming from inside the door:

"You damn slaves, when the company's security team arrives, you will all die!!"
