It was Ningtai Johnson and Herm's plan from the start.
The two of them knew each other very well.
They knew the other wouldn't betray each other.
After all, their current relationship was one where they were bound together for good or bad.
But looking at the bank's actions, they seemed to have realized their intentions.
"If we didn't leak the information, how did the bank know?" Herm couldn't understand.
"It's the people who sold us the weapons." Ningtai Johnson suddenly thought of this possibility. "We bought a large amount of firearms this time. The firearms dealer might have sensed our intentions and sold our information immediately."
"Those damn people, I'll show them!"
"Those arms dealers are a small problem, but we can't go find them now. Maybe they've already set up a trap and are waiting for us to walk into it."
"In other words, we can't get the rest of the weapons?"
"We'll deal with this later. Now, we should focus on the proper matters."
The two quickly calmed down and started planning.
"How does it feel to control the seed?" Herm asked.
Ningtai Johnson raised his hands, looked at them, and then clenched them.
"It feels special. I can sense it, but the transmission is half a beat slower than normal."
"That's normal. After all, our bodies are dozens of kilometers away from the seed. The transmission of senses is naturally much slower than normal nerves," Herm said. "Although our reactions and actions are a beat slower, this can prevent us from being in danger. Even if the seed's body is destroyed, we can still leave and break the connection."
Ningtai Johnson nodded. The Labyrinth Seed had many flaws.
But it was very practical.
The seed was a byproduct of their research on immortality.
They once wanted to create an immortal body and then put their souls into this body.
The seed was a part of their immortality plan.
However, this plan soon ended in failure.
Although the Labyrinth Seed was a body created by the fusion of many special bloodlines, it was still able to form a body.
But they weren't truly immortal.
Moreover, it was extremely repulsive to their souls.
After the soul entered the seed's body for a short period of time, the seed would quickly decay.
They could control it for a short period of time, but it wasn't perfect as a long-term soul vessel.
So now, they were only using the Labyrinth Seeds as puppets that could be controlled remotely.
To the people of the Spirit World, the Lost Path Seed was perhaps a joke.
However, to ordinary people, puppets that were not afraid of death were still a great threat.
"Citibank's Irvine headquarters has about 50 million USD in cash reserves."
"Only 50 million USD?" Herm frowned, clearly not satisfied with this number.
He knew how much money they had spent on the research over the past few years.
He also knew that they would need more than 50 million USD in the future.
He originally thought that he would be able to earn more money from this operation.
Fifty million USD was only enough to solve their urgent problem.
However, they were unable to truly maintain it until their research on immortality was completed.
Ningtai Johnson glanced at Herm and said, "Don't underestimate this fifty million. This is the bank with the highest reserves in the West Coast."
"But it's still not enough, unless we find a few more similar targets."
"This is the first and last time. Any more and we'll be in extreme danger." Ningtai Johnson wasn't a nerd like Herm.
He had been beaten up by society for several years.
He knew very well that the outside world wasn't really that peaceful, especially for the rich.
Especially for the rich, the same mistake would not happen to them a second time.
The first time, they could use the Labyrinth Seeds to attack first.
But the second time, other banks would probably be more cautious.
And in this aspect, although they possessed extraordinary power, they were still unable to do so.
But they weren't professionals after all.
They had to rob two or three big banks in a row.
Did they think they were idiots?
Ningtai Johnson paused and continued, "Also, this bank has more than 50 million USD in cash reserves."
"Other than the 50 million USD in cash reserves, what else can they have? Bonds? Stocks? Those things are just waste paper to us. "
Whether it was bonds or stocks, they had to be converted through proper channels to have value.
Robbery was clearly not the way to convert them.
Although Herm was a nerd, it didn't mean he didn't know basic social knowledge.
"Not those financial products. It's gold!" Ningtai Johnson said seriously. "There's more than five billion USD in gold in this bank."
Herm's eyes widened. "Really? That much? "
"That's right." Ningtai Johnson nodded. "I can confirm it from my source."
Herm was just excited when he suddenly calmed down. "Two billion USD in gold. How heavy is that?"
"About 50 tons," Ningtai Johnson said. Ningtai Johnson said, "That's why we're not just using ordinary Labyrinth Seeds this time. We need at least something like Hercules."
In the process of research, they had developed all kinds of Labyrinth Seeds.
One of them was named Hercules.
Just like its name, it had terrifying power.
But it was short-lived.
After activation, it would be useless in less than a day.
Of course, whether it was a special type or a normal type, there wasn't much difference between a day and a few days.
If it wasn't for the fact that they needed to keep a low profile and avoid the attention and interference of the spiritual world, they would obviously use the most powerful type.
Hercules was slightly more normal. At least, they just needed to cover it a little and it wouldn't attract too much attention.
"When do we do it?"
"Six in the evening," Ningtai Johnson said. Ningtai Johnson said, "This is the time when the other branches transfer the cash over. The bank's business hours are also over."
"Business hours are over? That means we don't have many hostages. If we only use the bank's employees as hostages, I'm afraid the guards and police won't be able to hold back. "
"My plan isn't to take hostages. I don't think the bank and police will just watch as we take dozens of tons of gold if we take enough hostages."
"Then what do you want? You know that's dozens of tons of gold. Even if we use Hercules, it'll be difficult to move it. "
"If we can't move it above ground, we can go underground."
"Underground? Sewer? "
"I've already found the sewer route map of this bank. There's a sewer pipe fifteen meters below the vault."
