Chapter 786 Bombs Planted
Although Stark Tower has changed a lot at this time, it is not a new building built from scratch after all. It is impossible to completely overhaul the internal framework in such a short time.
So the route marked on this map is still useful, but the various areas marked on it are no longer useful at this time. After all, this place has become an armory.
The three people moved forward close to the wall under Susan's ability. After entering the building, they did not encounter any Sentinel robots again, probably because of the dense cameras.
It can be said that there is one every ten steps, without any dead corner. Susan last saw such a dense distribution of cameras in a bank.
Fortunately, there was Reed's little invention, which allowed them to ignore these cameras. Otherwise, they might have been discovered as soon as they entered the building. Susan would not think that these cameras were just simple cameras, they were definitely not as ordinary as they looked.
According to Reed's plan, they needed to place the manufactured bomb in the position of the Sentinel robot factory. There must be a lot of explosive material there, and with the explosive he made, it would be easy to blow up the entire building.
At that time, even if Howard was not blown over, his robot manufacturing ability could be destroyed. Without the robot army, he would not be a threat.
Because unlike the other Sky Hammer Venerable, Howard is essentially an ordinary person wearing a battle suit. When the time comes, if you put an EMP on him, he will be honest.
According to the scene they saw outside the building, the Sentinel robots were launched from the center of the building, so the position of the factory is estimated to be not too far from this area.
So their main mission now is to go up. Thanks to Tyrone's ability, they don't need to climb the stairs, and soon they arrived at the center position.
Susan thought she would have to look for the armory for a while, but as soon as she got upstairs, she saw the assembly line. Howard did not hide the armory inside at all.
Perhaps it was because he didn't expect anyone to break into the interior and not be discovered by the various defense lines he set up.
The next mission is very simple, just set up the bomb and run away.
A total of five bombs, it sounds like very few, but this is what Reed made in just three hours. During this time, he also used Valeria's device to make a set of combat suits for everyone, and also made small devices to change the field.
There are even communication devices and so on. It can only be said that fortunately Reed has the ability to help extend a few more 'hands', otherwise if someone else with similar ability came, it would be estimated that they would not be able to achieve such multi-tasking maneuver.
Because there are only five bombs, it is still a bit difficult to blow up the entire building. This requires some effort in installation.
Although Susan is not as good as Reed, she is also a graduate of a top university. She is usually influenced by Reed, a versatile talent. She also knows a little about the skill that terrorists need to learn.
'First of all, we need to find the load-bearing pillars of the building, then find the position where energy is transported in the armory, and finally find the position where explosive materials are stored. As long as we find these three positions, then only five bombs can turn the entire building into ruins.'
Susan transmitted her idea through the mind link that Quentin had built in advance. This was the method of communication they had agreed upon from the beginning, in order to avoid the sound from being detected.
Quentin was beyond Susan's imagination. This child was surprisingly smart. After Susan's order was just issued, he found the energy conduit and followed the conduit to find the position where energy was stored.
Then there was Tyrone. Although this child has not received much education, he can easily find the load-bearing pillars of the building. According to him, this is because his interest is related to building.
There are many load-bearing pillars in a building. It is possible that there are nearly a thousand. On average, there are dozens in one floor. They only have five bombs and definitely cannot take care of everything.
But Tyrone came up with a method. They can place the bombs in a position that is close to the explosive material and energy storage, but also at a certain distance.
This is because once the explosive placed in these two positions explode, they will definitely destroy the nearby load-bearing pillars. If it is too close, it will be a waste, and if it is too far, and several pillars in the middle are not affected, then unexpected events may occur.
Under Tyrone's suggestion, the three of them uniformly placed the explosive on the left side of the building. This is to use a small technique of cutting down trees to make the building tilt to one side, so that the building collapses.
The installation was all done by Tyrone. Only he has the ability to penetrate the protective layer and install the bomb in the weakest position of the object. Because there were no obstacles, they quickly completed all the work.
Until the bombs were installed, they were not hindered at all. It seems that the decoy team did a good job, and indeed attracted Howard's attention.
…
Speaking of which, Reed and the others were miserable. Don't look at Susan's mission being uneventful and very smooth, but it took about an hour to calculate the journey and installation time.
In this hour, Reed and the others have been under attack.
At the beginning, there were only a few Sentinel robots to catch them, but with their heroic performance, more and more Sentinel robots came to attack them.
Not to mention others, there are already hundreds of Sentinel robots attacking Johnny and Ben. The sky and ground are densely packed. Fortunately, the heat-resistant coating of these robots is not too advanced, and Johnny can still hold on.
As for Ben, he is more relaxed than Johnny. These robots cannot penetrate his defense for the time being. He can slowly smash one by one, but he will also feel tired after a long time.
Moreover, these robots also knew to attack his weak aspect of the body after several rounds of attack, which is his eyes.
Perhaps because someone gave an order, these robots began to constantly greet his eyes. At first, Ben almost got tricked, but fortunately he closed his eyes in time, but the impact force of the missile still made his eyeball feel uncomfortable.
There was no method, he could only cover his face with one hand and attack with only one hand. In this way, the efficiency undoubtedly decreased.
Over time, Johnny's energy will be exhausted, and he will be in a trapped situation, but now they can only trust Susan and the other three.
And Susan and the three did not disappoint them.
"Boom!"
First, there was a deafening sound, and then a gale swept in. Even Ben, who was thick-skinned and fleshy, could feel it, not to mention Johnny flying in the sky. This wind blew him from side to side, and he was about to lose control of his balance.
Several blocks away, a building collapsed suddenly.
