Mech: Shattering of the Galaxy-Chapter 477 - 252: Smelting Workshop

Chapter 477 -252: Smelting Workshop

“Black, prepare for the operation and arrange the infiltration point.”

“There is a small passage on the north side of the factory for senior personnel to enter and exit.”

“Understood.” Mu Fan saw the remaining half of the patrol members continue to vanish behind the wall, crouched down to slowly withdraw from the pile of scrap, and then began running in an arc towards the north side.

A sentry standing atop a water tower was patrolling in a fixed sequence along the corners.

From his elevated viewpoint, he could clearly see dozens of meters outside the factory.

At that moment, he happened to turn around to survey the back.

And the figure running along the perimeter naturally went unseen.

This was no coincidence, but a calculated move hundreds of meters away, Mu Fan’s running gaze always locked onto those few people within the factory.

His terrifying night vision and dynamic sight endowed Mu Fan with far superior capability than current night vision aids.

Ten seconds later, at the moment the patrolling member’s gaze was about to turn back, Mu Fan’s figure, leaping midair, suddenly stopped and plunged into the bushes, motionless.

Once their gaze moved on, Mu Fan’s figure reappeared.

It was now 9:14 PM, aside from the people in the factory and Mu Fan, there was no one else.

After several ups and downs, Mu Fan moved quickly to the north side of the factory mentioned by Black and naturally spotted that small door. But the key issue was…

Between Mu Fan and the door, there was a seven to eight meter wide deep water channel, and the water surface was more than five meters above ground level, with the only mechanical bridge retracted.

“Black, you really screwed me over. Lock down the nearby cameras, activate the shield. Report on the factory’s patrol situation, I’m preparing to jump.”

With clenched teeth and a low voice, Mu Fan’s arms braced against the ground and his body arched, ready to sprint.

“Patrol personnel passing by… The last one has left, estimated 5 seconds before he turns and leaves the line of sight. 4, 3, 2, 1…”

A profound calm entered Mu Fan’s eyes.

“Dark Breath” spread from his heart throughout his body, gathering beneath his feet.

Mu Fan’s right leg trembled rapidly dozens of times at that moment.

Zing!

The slightly moist earth indented instantaneously, and Mu Fan’s figure shot forth like a bullet.

A black silhouette leaped from the edge of the channel, seemingly ignoring the pull of gravity, flashing across the air.

Legs stretched out and once again stepped beside the small gate’s wall, Mu Fan incredibly utilized the strong inertia from the Charging Step to run vertically up the wall for several steps.

A meter-high electric fence!

Mu Fan’s legs suddenly pressed down, and his whole body executed a supple front somersault, gracefully and agilely clearing the obstacle.

Thump, a light sound, because Mu Fan’s hands touched the ground before his feet, the arm’s cushioning muted the sound of his feet.

The whole person half propped up on the ground, under the messy black hair, Mu Fan’s gaze slowly lifted.

A small yellow duck mask from his tactical bag was gently pulled out by Mu Fan and placed on his face.

This comically cute mask, set against the current backdrop, possessed an indescribable eeriness.

Behind the mask was the faint excitement on Mu Fan’s face.

The infiltration… had begun!

“Black, reverse control the infrared sensors, mark the living creatures’ movements for me.”

“Received.”

When Mu Fan was inside the factory area, his wristwatch, close to the surveillance cameras, generated an electromagnetic field, enabling Black to hack into the monitoring network.

All the operations were carried out silently behind the scenes of the devices, without anyone being aware.

At this instant, except for the central control room in the workshop, which was physically and network isolated, the standard surveillance had been completely taken over by Black.

That is to say, from now on, every move of the opposing side within the factory area would be under the all-seeing “Heavenly Eye” of Black.

“I can monitor the activities outside the building for now, but I’m unaware of some visual blind spots and the biological signatures inside the building, also, be careful of those military dogs.”

Cold and invisible energy surrounded Mu Fan, which not only enabled him to enter a state of Absolute Calm but also provided a Concealment effect terrifying enough to be considered remarkable.

Just like the time Mohandas stood right behind him without his knowledge, the astonishing Concealment factor of Dark Breath was Mu Fan’s ace in the hole.

“The rest don’t matter. I can handle it. Plan the route to the smelting workshop,” Mu Fan ordered calmly.

“Route planning successful. The smelting workshop is 694 meters from your location. You will pass through twelve intersections and five surveillance points. There are two military dogs and six patrol members along the path.”

Mu Fan hummed softly, packed up his backpack, and then, like a nimble mountain cat, leaped into the shadows of the buildings bathed in starlight.

Under the cover of night, shadows are always the best camouflage.

He moved silently.

“There’s a patrol team ahead.”

Mu Fan suddenly pressed himself against the wall, or hung from the edge of the roof.

“There’s a military dog ahead.”

Mu Fan increased the operation speed of Dark Breath by a bit, the aura around his body growing more intense, and then he arched his body to pass over the rooftop without making a sound.

Everything went smoothly, but as Mu Fan suddenly hung upside down from the edge of the smelting workshop’s roof to swing inside, he discovered a military dog sleeping quietly in the passage.

Mu Fan’s head was less than two meters vertically from the military dog, but wrapped in Ghost Energy, he hadn’t woken the dog at all.

That was close!

Mu Fan gently pinched a steel ball from behind his back.

He had picked it up while moving through the plant area, but now it was indeed the perfect hidden weapon.

His pupils, with night-vision capability, tightly locked onto the nape of the crouched military dog’s neck.

Hooking his feet on a protruding edge, Mu Fan hung upside down at the entrance, his right hand throwing like lightning.

Swoosh!

Thud!

There was just a barely audible, muffled sound. The steel ball in Mu Fan’s hand smashed the military dog’s spine from above at an angle before piercing directly into its brain.

Not a sound was heard.

The military dog, other than the sound of bones breaking beneath its skin, was killed instantly, without a single drop of blood spilled.

Mu Fan’s figure gently descended, approaching to pick up the dead military dog before moving forward.

Looking at the sealed passageway, he said, “An unexpected military dog appeared and I’ve killed it. I’ve decided to bring it inside just in case. Is there a way to dispose of it?”

“There’s a sensor in the steel smelting furnace inside; once I hack the central control, throw it in for incineration.”

“Understood.”

Mu Fan pressed his wristwatch against the identification scanner of the heavy hydraulic door at the end of the passageway.

After five seconds, the heavy hydraulic door trembled slightly, then slowly lifted. Once Mu Fan’s figure had disappeared inside, it closed slowly again.

Under the faint starlight, the factory was silent.

Walking inside the smelting workshop, Mu Fan realized its enormity—it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that a hundred Mechas could easily fit inside.

“I’ve already sensed a faint electromagnetic signal. I’ll tell you when to move. Follow my directions to hack the central computer.”

Mu Fan casually tossed away the dead military dog and, following Black’s continuous directional corrections, finally arrived at a three-story building after several twists and turns.

This was an independent building within the vast smelting workshop.

“This must be the central control building…”

Walking up the narrow steps to the third floor, Mu Fan pressed his wristwatch against the door.

With a hum, the metal door opened automatically, revealing a dense array of electronic equipment inside.

Instruments under automatic standby, a quiet twinkling of red and green electronic lights.

“Hurry up, stick the wristwatch on. The strongest signal is here; this has to be the source of the signal. This master is about to take over this workshop now, ahahaha,” urged Black eagerly.

Everything had gone smoothly so far. A smile appeared under the mask. Mu Fan pressed his wristwatch to the central control platform…
