Why was waiting also a form of attack? Because the other party was a loose group after all. They lacked the kind of strong organization that was held together by the common interests of the party.
They lacked close ties and common interests. It was fine when they had plenty of time, but once the 36-hour deadline slowly approached, the pressure on them to fail on the verge of success would only increase!
Sheyan felt that the person who could unite these scattered contestants and make them suppress the desires in their hearts and lay low was already very, very impressive. But if the person behind the scenes could still make them wait quietly under the huge pressure of failing the mission and having all their attributes reduced, then the person behind the scenes must be a god, not a human.
Therefore, Sheyan chose to wait and let the precious time pass. The two sides were competing in nothing but patience. Moreover, the biggest advantage of Sheyan's side was that they would be able to complete the mission by the end of the day.
Sheyan's side had the complete initiative.
To be honest, Sheyan was also quite wary of the person behind the scenes. That mysterious method of attack was indeed impossible to guard against. If they acted rashly and lost the initiative, Sheyan was not confident that he could protect the lives of Mogensha or Sanzi.
By the same token, the loose organization of the enemy also determined that they could not withstand a sudden attack from Party Ace. That would immediately disperse the morale and core that they had painstakingly gathered!
Therefore, a stalemate became the main theme.
Whoever showed a flaw first would lose!
Time ticked by. Even Zi and Sanzi were feeling restless at the same time. From time to time, they could see from the news clips on TV that the allies who had received the "Protect Sarah Connor" mission were very busy.
The official news became an important channel for Party Ace to learn about the outside world. For example, there was a gas explosion in a certain research institute, a gas explosion in a military enterprise, and an old sow climbing a tree. Something or technology must have been carried out by the enemy.
Another example was a gunfight between a drug lord and the police on a certain street. Those bastards were most likely trying to gain some reputation or gain some titles.
Even Cyberdyne Systems, the company that produced Skynet, was harassed. Note that it was harassment, not a breakthrough. The unlucky perpetrator seemed to have done something beyond his ability. In the end, he was tragically carried out on a stretcher with a white cloth over his head.
"These guys can really keep their composure." Reef clutched the water cup as he paced back and forth impatiently. He reckoned that if he exerted any more force, the cup would shatter with a 'kacha'.
Party Ace was currently on the rooftop of a 30-storey building. Here was a rusty tin house built by the building manager to earn some extra money. When the wind blew, the rusty tin would rustle violently. No matter who it was, they would feel a sense of oppression in this place.
This place looked like a dangerous place, but it was actually surrounded by three short skyscrapers. The distance between them was only 10 metres. Jumping to the opposite building was too easy for a contestant.
Furthermore, Sheyan was extremely confident in his own party. In this world, to be able to disperse his party in a frontal assault and defence battle, there would still be a certain degree of difficulty.
In the previous battle, if it weren't for the fact that they had to protect the heroine's corpse, even if Sanzi didn't come, Sheyan and Reef would have forced their way into the enemy's midst, and Zi would have transformed and attacked them.
More importantly, if the mastermind really had the confidence to deal with them, why would he go through so much trouble?
What Sheyan was most clear about was that the most likely way to win a battle was not to rely on schemes or the like. Instead, it was to directly crush the enemy with the momentum of a million mighty soldiers crossing a great river after gaining an absolute advantage!
Sheyan smiled in response to Reef's question.
"There will always be a time when you can't keep your composure. Actually, half the time has passed. I can already guess where those guys are now."
Mogensha's spirits were instantly lifted.
"Where are they?"
The only special thing about the nut Sheyan obtained before entering this world was that there was an SOS signal engraved on its screw thread. However, this SOS signal could only be seen under a high-powered microscope.
In the nightmare realm, even someone as strong as Sheyan could not deduce more information from the clues he already had. However, after entering this world, a series of information began to appear on the nut:
[Workshop 7 of the Knoxson Processing Factory.]
Since the location was given, there was no doubt that all the stories derived from it should start here. Based on the clues left behind by the SOS signal, the time, place and events had been fully described.
If it was really as Sheyan had guessed, that the mastermind behind the scenes was related to the Stockholm Party, then after Sheyan disappeared from Los Angeles, this would be the place where they could wait for him to show up.
Sheyan said with a serious face.
"I know those guys must be nearby, but we still have to wait. Now's the time to compete in patience. Our disadvantage is that we entered this world nearly a week later than them, so it's hard to say what tricks they have up their sleeves. But for now, they probably won't be able to find us if we hide here. Whoever moves first will be the first to reveal their weakness! And if we keep waiting like this, there's no doubt that it's to our advantage, so why not keep waiting? "
*****
Soon, the countdown to the completion of the main mission had reached the end.
One hour left ….
Thirty minutes left ….
Ten minutes left ….
Sheyan's expression changed. Sanzi had a strange plant familiar that could play a surveillance role. Sanzi planted this plant familiar in the body of a carrier pigeon, so it could act as a moving surveillance device.
The carrier pigeon stayed on the building next to the Knoxson Processing Factory.
So far, there was still no movement.
This was completely out of Sheyan's expectations. According to Sheyan's previous estimation, this mob of opposites should have internal strife and chaos after the mission deadline reached ten hours!!
But even before the countdown reached ten minutes, the place was still so quiet!!
Sheyan felt that the situation had gone out of control. This was a very scary thing for him. His throat was dry and his throat squirmed uncontrollably. It was not until Zi considerately handed him a glass of water that Sheyan took it and drank it in one gulp.
"How can this be?" Sheyan could not help muttering to himself, "My judgement can't be wrong."
[Mission completion countdown begins. 10, 9, 8 …. 1, 0!]
[Silver Party: Ace, you have completed the main mission: Rescue.]
[Main mission: Rescue.] “
"Mission description: Although Sarah Connor and her boyfriend did not survive the intense pursuit, but their child, the future leader of the rebel army, John Connor, continued to live on. Although the trajectory of his life will undergo a huge change, therefore Skynet's objective was not achieved."
[Mission evaluation: D, very clumsy! Gentlemen, you have put Mr. John Connor in a very dangerous situation. More importantly, the death of his mother will change the future once again. If you can save Reese and Sarah Connor, that would be a wonderful thing!]
[Mission reward: 3,000 utility points, 2 achievement points (legend level + 1). You are not eligible to receive free attribute points.]
Sheyan had expected that the completion rate of the main mission would not be high, but his attention was still focused on the Knoxson Processing Factory!! It was still strangely calm there. There were no abnormal changes.
Sheyan continued to endure for an hour. His thick black eyebrows were tightly knitted together. He paced back and forth in the tin house anxiously like a trapped beast. Reef and the others were quiet. They did not dare to make any noise for fear of disturbing him.
Suddenly, Sheyan grabbed the half piece of tin that had been flipped over from the wall and tore it off. He was stunned.
"I know! This guy!!! How can he be so decisive and ruthless? I, I underestimated him. Could it be that after I turned the tables on him, he immediately gave me a show of strength? Come on, let's go to the Knoxson Processing Factory!! "
*****
Twenty minutes later, Sheyan and the others arrived at the entrance of the processing factory. There was no doubt that this place was a key military factory that was under protection, but for them, it was not too difficult to enter the periphery and not the core area. The guards would have a hard time detecting their presence.
Sanzi then used his ability to control a dozen rats to scout the place.
Soon, the rats found a suspicious place in the Knoxson Processing Factory.
It was a place that used to be an auditorium, but was now an abandoned warehouse.
The reason why this place was suspicious was because it was a place that even rats could not get in.
Taking the lead, Sheyan and Reef quickly arrived at the entrance of this place. Then, they proceeded to open the door with unscrupulous but violent methods.
The door looked broken, but it was actually very sturdy.
Standing at the door, Sheyan had a very bad premonition, because the moment the door opened, he smelled the pungent smell of blood ….
*****
I've written this chapter three times, three times ….
This is even more painful than getting stuck.
I'm crying inside.
At first, I wrote that SY and Blackhand had a head-on PK, but I was very dissatisfied.
Then I wrote that SY made the right judgment and crushed Blackhand in a battle of wits, but I was still dissatisfied!
So far, the 6K chapter has been scrapped.
Only the current 3K words could give me the flavor I really wanted.
Phew … .time for supper. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you're welcome to come to qidian.com to vote. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
