Destroying everything, is this the revenge you want?
Su Su's question echoed in Yan Bai's mind. His already shaky faith was shattered in an instant.
No, of course not, he really did look forward to a better future.
Yan San told him that mermaids have natural mental strength, and if mermaids were to drive starships and mechas, they would definitely do better than humans.
He has always believed this.
But Su Su asked him, learning takes time, do they have this time? Do the Zerg give them this time?
The answer is of course no.
If the Shirazawa were to turn its guns around, what would happen to the expeditionary force and the space station? When the human regime is facing subversion, what will happen to the humans guarding the front line?
Regime change takes time, and it also takes time for mermaids to learn how to drive a starship, but the Zerg will not give them that time.
Yan Bai suddenly realized that he was blinded by a single thing in the past, and only set the plan of seizing the Bai Ze as an ultimate goal, believing that once this plan was completed, they would be able to master the weapon that threatens the fate of mankind, and everything else would be solved. But is this really the case?
Obviously not. Humans will not willingly give up the rights they have already obtained, and the Zerg will not give up this good opportunity to invade. The result will be either failure or both sides will perish. How much hope do they have to successfully seize power and successfully resist the Zerg?
Yan Sanzong told him that the plan would eventually succeed and that sacrifice and patience were only temporary. But what if the plan would never succeed from the beginning?
Then what about all their efforts and the mermaids who sacrificed their lives for this?
Yan Bai, who always appeared to be goal-oriented and confident, seemed to have lost his direction at this moment, with a blank heart. If everything he had always believed in was wrong, then where should he go?
"Then tell me, how can we save the fate of the mermaid?" Yan Bai looked at Su Su, but his eyes were unfocused. He didn't really expect Su Su to give an answer, and he didn't know who he was asking. He just felt too helpless.
"Why don't you do something that is worthy of the purpose of your organization? For example... tear down that place." Su Su noticed Yan Bai's hesitation and put forward his own suggestion. He pointed his slender finger in the direction of Lanshan, raised his eyebrows, and there was a sharp light in his eyes like a moon-like knife: "Do you dare to go?"
Like a spark thrown into the dry grass, the fire in Yan Bai's heart was instantly ignited. He had always thought about demolishing that place. Ever since he first knew about the existence of the training center, he had always wanted to demolish it. But for the sake of the plan, he had to endure it again and again, watching his fellow tribesmen suffer there.
Now, Su Su used a few words to break down his already fragile belief, and the wall that blocked his impulse also disappeared.
That's right! If you can't find the right direction, you might as well just follow your heart. This choice may not be correct, but at least it makes sense to the mermaid in this building.
"What are you afraid of?" Yan Bai stood up suddenly. He couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips with a sense of relief as if he had broken free from all restraints. His eyes showed some of his former recklessness and boldness. "Let's go and tear it down now!"
When Yan Bai informed his subordinates of this decision, everyone suspected that there was something wrong with their ears.
"Young Master, the Mo family's people have arrived at the dock and are now heading towards the boarding gate. If we don't leave now, it will be too late." Yan Bai's men advised.
Others also echoed: "Mr. Bai... For such a big matter, shouldn't we communicate with the boss first?"
"If we rashly take action against the training center now, it might arouse people's vigilance and put us at the center of public attention."
"Yes, Master. Our grand plan is about to succeed. I can't bear to disrupt it!"
Lian 06 also advised: "Mr. Bai, although I also want to demolish that place, isn't it a bit too hasty? We haven't prepared anything... How about leaving today and wait for you to communicate with the boss before making a long-term plan."
"Don't persuade me." The more Yan Bai listened to them talking about the plan, the more annoyed he felt: "I have to do this today. If you don't want to come with me, I won't force you. You can get on the boat and leave now."
Most of the people in the crowd had been following Yan Bai. Although they did not agree with his plan, they would not abandon him. They just looked a little conflicted.
"Young Master, if you are determined to do this, I can't persuade you, but I will tell the boss the truth about this matter." An older man sighed and said.
"I understand." Yan Bai thought to himself, this was probably the first time he had acted against his adoptive father's wishes. If his adoptive father knew about this, he would probably be very angry.
"What should we do?" In the corner of the crowd, there was a thin young man wearing a sweater and a hat covering most of his face. He had been silent before and his presence was very low. When he raised his head, Su Su realized that he looked like a minor, with a very delicate appearance and seemed to have some mermaid blood.
He walked through the crowd and approached Yan Bai: "I'll help you. You tell me what to do."
"Thank you." Yan Bai's attitude towards the young man was a little different. It was not like treating a subordinate, but more like treating a friend: "I really need your help this time."
Seeing Su Su's curious expression, Yan Bai introduced him, "This is Lin Dian, a mermaid who was directly transformed into a human through drugs. He is good at network hacking and related technologies. He got your Star Wars game account by technical means."
"Wow, you're awesome." Su Su instantly developed a fondness for the young boy. Anyone who can help you play games is a good person!
The boy was stunned for a moment, then immediately lowered his head, stretched out his hand and pulled his hat down hard, almost covering his entire face. After a long while, he muffled and said, "You are also very good."
???
Su Su looked at the overly shy boy and didn't understand what he meant.
Yan Bai smiled for a moment: "I forgot to mention that he watches the Starship game and is also your fan."
…
After the idle chat, several people started to discuss the plan seriously.
06 was most familiar with the situation inside, and immediately drew a route map for everyone on the terminal. She also had an internal permission card in her hand, which she could provide to everyone. She also understood the deployment inside very clearly: "Most of the staff in the training center are engaged in medical, nursing, and education-related professions. They are not good at fighting. The self-defense weapons they are equipped with are electric guns, which have the effect of paralyzing people, but they can wear insulating suits to resist. The more difficult ones are the guard robots inside. There are hundreds of them, and their combat power is very strong."
Yan Bai's subordinates reported their military strength: "We have a total of thirty people that can be mobilized at the port, five ground combat mechas, twenty particle guns, and a full range of protective equipment. If we fight head-on, we can defeat those guard robots, but we are afraid that the battle will cause too much noise and the energy fluctuations will be monitored by the Defense Bureau. And once a fight breaks out in the building, the mermaids inside may be taken hostage or even killed by mistake. Also, be careful of those people who call for reinforcements after being attacked."
"Don't worry about reinforcements. In addition, for confidentiality, the network inside is completely cut off from the outside. And all staff will put the terminal in the locker room outside the building for safekeeping before entering, and can only take it out after leaving. As long as this place is controlled first during the operation, the people inside will not be able to get the terminal to ask for help even if they run out."
"If that's the case, there's no need to fight hard." Yan Bai directly rejected the plan proposed by his subordinates and turned to look at Lin Dian: "Is there any way to seize control of those robots?"
"According to 06, the people inside don't have much combat power except for the robots. As long as we control those robots and use them to counter the people inside, we can control the entire training center without losing a single soldier."
"It's easy to change permissions." Lin Dian pulled his hood. "But it won't work without a network inside. Someone needs to bring a signal transmitter in advance. I can use it to remotely modify the command permissions inside the robot's body."
Su Su became excited when he heard this: "That's perfect, isn't it? Just give it to me wherever the launcher is. I'll show up to lure the searchers over, and then you can seize the opportunity to kidnap them and pretend to be them to take me back to the training center. After that, we'll take control of the locker room at the door, and I can hide the launcher in my clothes and bring it in. After we go in, I'll try my best to buy you time. Once you control the robot, we can cooperate with it from the inside and outside."
Su Su spoke out his thoughts all at once, just in time to complete the thoughts of Yan Bai and Lin Dian.
The three of them hit it off and prepared to take action.
Yan Bai didn't expect that Su Su was willing to take such a risk for the mermaids. Although he said that he didn't care about the life or death of the mermaids, he was actually helping them in action.
But Su Su actually had no such idea at all. He proposed to dismantle the training center just to create trouble for the Mo family, to avenge the other party for the pit they had dug for him these days, and to take back his terminal so that he could pass the message to Qi Hanyi.
A few minutes later, a young man in a wheelchair appeared at the port. His hat covered half of his face, and his scarf tightly blocked the tip of his nose. He was wearing a low-key black coat, and his lower body was covered with a blanket, so his feet could not be seen.
He controlled the wheels of the electric wheelchair and moved towards the ferry terminal. In his hand, he held a ticket with the closest departure time.
Just as he was about to enter the ticket gate, several people came up to him and surrounded him. "Hello, we are from the Executive Department of the Noble Council. We are looking for a mermaid who escaped. Please cooperate with the inspection."
The young man suddenly clenched his hand holding the ticket, his fingertips turning pale. "I'm not the person you're looking for. Move aside. You're going to delay my boarding."
"We need to get checked to know." Several people came forward, rudely held down Su Su's wheelchair, and pushed him to an empty corner of the alley.
"What are you doing? Let me go!" the young man screamed in a low voice. Something was turning under the blanket. He seemed to want to run, but due to the inconvenience of his legs, he could not get up and break free.
"No need to act anymore, Mr. Su Su." Someone from the executive department lifted the blanket from Su Su's legs, and a silver fish tail was exposed to the air. It seemed a little uneasy, swinging up and down slightly.
The executive raised his eyebrows in satisfaction. "It's just as I thought. You just took the mermaid medicine, so it would be inconvenient for you to move. But, you were left alone. Where did the person who helped you escape go? Could you please tell me?"
"Oh, you're looking for 06." Su Su raised his head and pulled down the scarf covering his face, revealing his delicate lower face. His thin lips raised a dangerous arc: "She's right behind you."
