118: Basement 2

Gotta say, the boss of the "Four-Eyes Gang" - """Four-Eyes Murderer""" - was quite something.

The reason he dared to disrespect the Old Captain was naturally because """Four-Eyes Murderer""" had someone backing him.

It was precisely by leveraging his connections that """Four-Eyes Murderer""" spent a fortune to acquire a batch of "motion detectors" and "high-speed automatic sensing turrets".

Then, """Four-Eyes Murderer""" hired people to set up a defense system on the second and third basement levels that could detect Sandiwestan users and automatically counterattack.

Not only that, but """Four-Eyes Murderer""" also had a Hacker under him with strength around the Third Order.

Thanks to that Hacker's efforts, the entire Raik Underground Factory was also shrouded by another "network security defense system".

The cameras installed in the four corners of the first basement level were part of the "network security defense system".

When Fang Yun used "Human Intelligence Ascension" to hack into the Raik Underground Factory, he temporarily disabled that "network security defense system".

So Fang Yun didn't have to worry about his whereabouts being exposed by the cameras now.

However, "motion detectors" were installed on the iron staircase leading to the second basement level.

The "motion detectors" that """Four-Eyes Murderer""" spent a fortune on were naturally not the low-end stuff commonly seen on the market that could only detect First/Second Order Sandiwestan users.

The "motion detectors" installed in the Raik Underground Factory were all military-grade equipment, capable of detecting users of up to Fifth Order Sandiwestan.

Although due to quality issues, these "motion detectors" could only detect a Fifth Order Sandiwestan user once before becoming scrap.

Fang Yun stood at the staircase entrance, thinking about how to enter the second basement level.

"The second basement level is the residential area and warehouse for the members of the Four-Eyes Gang."

"The Four-Eyes Gang members are all in the hall in the middle of the second basement level eating, drinking, and having fun, so their dorms should be empty."

"The straight-line distance from this staircase entrance to the nearest dorm should be less than 5 meters."

"Hmm, I'll just use 'Gatotsu - Phantom Charge' to go straight through the wall."

Fang Yun raised the fox moon katana - black fox, casually struck a pose as a "charging stance", and began charging.

"Ding! Charge value +10, +10, +10..."

Based on the building structure information he had just stolen, Fang Yun aimed the release direction of "Gatotsu - Phantom Charge" at the dorm closest to him.

"I hope my estimation isn't wrong, otherwise I'll be stuck in the wall for a while."

"...Forget it, Human Intelligence Ascension, help me calculate it carefully."

"...Hmm, there's no problem after all."

Two seconds passed, the charge value reached 100 points, and Fang Yun also used "Human Intelligence Ascension" to verify the feasibility of the action.

Aiming at the target dorm, Fang Yun shouted in his mind:

"Ikuzo!"

Following that, Fang Yun activated the sword skill.

In an instant, Fang Yun's entire body seemed to be shrouded in a layer of shadow, his figure becoming ethereal, giving the impression that he had suddenly turned into a "shadow" in the three-dimensional world.

Immediately after, the fox moon katana - black fox in Fang Yun's hand stabbed downwards at an extremely fast speed, and his body followed the blade, plunging into the ground with a "whoosh".

A black and white cross-section of steel and concrete flashed before Fang Yun's eyes.

In almost just an instant, Fang Yun passed through the wall between the first and second basement levels and arrived at the second basement level.

"Wohoo, felt great!"

Just as Fang Yun's mood became excited, the effect of "Gatotsu - Phantom Charge" had already ended.

Seeing that he was about to land on the ground, the body coordination ability granted to Fang Yun by his cybernetics came into play.

After simply adjusting his body posture, Fang Yun steadily landed on a large iron box.

The leg muscle tendon cybernetics, equipped with "silencing accessories", prevented Fang Yun from making even the slightest sound, even though his landing spot was a hollow iron box.

After stabilizing himself, Fang Yun looked up and surveyed his surroundings.

A set of bedding was nestled on the simple iron bed, and common furniture was placed haphazardly around the room.

Several firearms hung on the wall, and a bag of trash was piled up next to the closed iron door.

Fang Yun lifted his foot off the iron box and, looking closely, found a logo on the box.

"A logo for Hundred Gods Tequila? Looks like there's alcohol in this box."

"Doesn't look like a collector's edition, but it's still good wine."

"Since they've brought out such good wine to drink, they must be having a great time right now."

Fang Yun held the blade in his right hand, stroked his chin with his left, and revealed a smile.

"Add me, and they'll definitely have even more fun."

Fang Yun used "Human Intelligence Ascension" to hack into the cameras on the second basement level and observed the situation outside the room.

"Two rows of dorms on the left and right, with a hall in the middle..."

"...There are a few guns on the shelves, but they pose no threat to me..."

"There is indeed a bottle of 'Hundred Gods Tequila' on the glass table, looks like I guessed correctly."

"Oh, this Hacker is quite something. While everyone else is happily dancing and drinking, he's diligently maintaining subnet security."

"I appreciate your professional attitude, but your Hacker skills need improvement. Try harder in your next life."

After confirming that only the people in the hall were on the second basement level, Fang Yun uploaded a "Puppet - Self-Termination" into the brain of that Four-Eyes Gang Hacker, and then withdrew his consciousness from the camera.

"In two more seconds, the puppet will activate. Finish them within two seconds."

"Hackers have a Hacker's way of dying, thugs have a thug's way of dying. I really pay attention to detail."

Fang Yun muttered approvingly to himself as he walked to the dorm door and pushed it open.

"Sandiwestan, activate."

Instantly, the flow of time slowed down, and the entire world, once again, fell into "stillness" because of Fang Yun.

One step, two steps, three steps.

The first Four-Eyes Gang member to sense that something was wrong was precisely the boss of the Four-Eyes Gang - """Four-Eyes Murderer""".
