Chapter 1150: Habulav's Weakness (Part 2)
"The administrative building in Zone A, the ammunition depot in Zone D, and the maximum-security prison in Zone E, got it!"
The call ended, and although Nicole didn't fully grasp Chen Fei's warning, she was in a state of preferring to err on the side of caution. She chose to believe the information because these three locations were indeed the critical sectors of Habulav.
There was no time or energy to verify the source of this information.
After ending the call, Chen Fei went to the terminal in his dormitory to start ordering food!
Before the "explosion" at the maximum-security prison, he decided to order some of his favorite snacks to pass the time when needed.
Ten minutes later, just as the meal delivery robot arrived, the entire room began to shake violently, akin to a sudden earthquake. The cube-shaped electronic device on the desk indicated a magnitude of Level 8, with the epicenter located directly above, just 200 meters away.
All non-fixed items in the dormitory were swaying, and small objects tumbled to the floor with a clatter. Even the delivery robot inadvertently crashed into the wall, but Chen Fei, quick-eyed and deft, immediately stored it in his "Spatial Branding." He thus preserved his feast, consisting of over forty varieties.
Outside in the corridor, chaos was rampant, with ceiling panels mostly crashed on the ground, revealing a dense array of pipelines.
Meanwhile, sharp alarm sounds reverberated through the different floors of the maximum-security prison.
Even though they had received a warning, the reaction time for the prison was still far from sufficient.
Utilizing the "Macroscopic Perspective" module of the "Basic Optical Observer" from his psi skills, Chen Fei could clearly see that the surface building above his head had already transformed into ruins. The prison had only just completed an emergency evacuation of personnel, leaving only a few combat personnel, whose fate was unknown amidst the collapse.
Only the basement garage near the surface was crushed flat, while deeper levels beyond some structural fractures remained mostly intact and secure.
After all, this was a facility for holding Ability User offenders, so the robustness of the buildings was paramount, even capable of withstanding a nuclear blast to some extent. This was precisely why Chen Fei felt assured staying here; it was safer than anywhere outside, even though the piled remnants of buildings now buried it underground. Without even using the reserves in his "Spatial Branding," the existing air, water, food, energy, and medical supplies in the maximum-security prison could sustain survival for a considerable time, negating immediate survival concerns.
The critical sectors of Habulav, including the maximum-security prison, had been attacked. The collapse of the surface buildings was not the worst part.
The worst part was the isolation between the ground and surface, leaving the prisoners here...
The sensitivity of the earth to vibrations was remarkably high. The cube on the desk continuously detected multiple vibration data, accurately pinpointing their sources. It could only maximize its efficacy in an underground setting; if brought to the surface, its detection capability would reduce by at least two-thirds, rendering it nearly ineffective.
The dormitory door suddenly unlocked, sliding open automatically.
Chen Fei looked at the empty doorway and the chaos beyond it. Howls, roars, explosions, and all sorts of noise flooded in. This was still the same floor; the situation on other floors was anyone's guess.
Few knew how many floors Habulav's maximum-security prison actually had, nor the precise size or structure of each floor.
Chen Fei thought for a moment, and the silver light pattern on the back of his hand began to glow.
One by one, fully armed combat mechs emerged from the dormitory, starting to spread throughout the entire underground level, with their numbers growing exponentially.
In a near-sealed environment, there was a cap on the numbers of both enemies and allies. If a third party that could reproduce soldiers arrived now, Habulav not using the Supernatural Ability Suppressant on Chen Xiao'er until this point was arguably the most correct decision. The total quantity of all mechanical beings inside and outside the Habulav District, including both combat and non-combat types, might have been fewer than what he had in reserve in his "Spatial Branding."
After all, being able to confront the "Sagali" civilization's cannon fodder sea tactics as a supernatural power user meant his innate psi skill "Spatial Branding" could play a role comparable to S-Class levels at certain times.
In just one hour, the combat mechs released by Chen Fei not only successfully seized the floor where his dormitory was located but also acquired the floor plan. They followed the elevator shaft, starting to advance both upward and downward.
Thanks to the handiwork of financial fraud mastermind Theodore, the previously destroyed elevator shaft hadn't yet been repaired, serving as a crucial avenue for the combat mechs to dominate the entire underground complex. By establishing a physical communication network independent of the prison using the elevator shaft to lay communication cables, real-time progress feedback was provided to Chen Fei.
This was a very monotonous dungeon game.
When the vanguard of the combat mechs reached the cell blocks, many cells were already opened, with most prison guards locked inside various rooms. Due to a lack of instructions or receiving erroneous commands, the released prisoners lost control. Some prisoners, bewildered, remained honestly in their cells, while others peered out curiously, and some brazenly stepped out, instigating conflict. Chaos naturally ensued, with traces of blood, screams, and bodies appearing in the hallway.
A few guards not confined within rooms were fewer in number and couldn't ensure their own safety, let alone suppress the fleeing prisoners.
The War Professionals prisoners were the first to recklessly act out. Even though their Battle Qi cultivation was suppressed, the sheer physical strength far surpassing ordinary people was downright lethal, allowing them to kill with bare hands. Only a few supernatural power users focused on martial arts could contend with them.
The Ability User inmates confined here were all dangerous fugitives, but after brief chaos, the intellectual ability users quickly reached consensus, first eliminating the mindless and unwilling prisoners, turning them into corpses before attempting to control the entire floor of the prison.
These operations were undoubtedly the correct choice, but life's about one-third struggle, two-thirds fate. These individuals were not especially lucky and happened to collide head-on with the continually expanding combat mech forces. Their core control system was the Artificial Intelligence AI "Adam," completely unaffected by the prison's AI control. They boldly intruded into the cellblock, offering no warnings and immediately showering tear gas, capturing prisoners and kicking them back into cells, welding the doors shut.
However, at this moment, the prison's combat mechs began attacking Chen Fei's combat mechs. Both sides were fearless mechanical beings wielding roughly equivalent weaponry, leading to queued execution-style scenes in many places. Both sides made successive advances, escalating the output of firepower not just with railgun combat rifle armor-piercing shells but with small missiles shrieking across the corridors.
