Chapter 1375: Chapter 1373: Sudden Incident

Sand table deduction.

Han Dong considered the scenarios where ‘all enemy forces from Makoms City have arrived’ and ‘the enemy chooses to execute the original plan and directly attack London City’.

He envisioned how to deal with all possible events without affecting ‘Beheading King Seal’ and ‘Zombie Creation’.

Eventually, he devised an executable ‘unshell plan’.

The plan proposed splitting Hyperion Corporation into two parts–[Outer Shell] and [Core].

Outer Shell: The company’s external structure, protective layers, and facilities essential for zombie and arms manufacturing and the imprisonment of Beheading King. The existence of the outer shell made the company appear to be functioning normally.

Core: The research and development departments involving core technologies, the Organic Research Institute, and the Secret Room imprisoning Beheading King.

Finally, after discussing with the robot assistant Little Yellow, a ‘mobile core’ modification plan was established, which is as follows:

The company’s attached railway system would be expanded, integrating the core with the train.

One carriage (or several linked carriages) would correspond to an important department of the company. One of the carriages needed to achieve perfect integration with the Secret Room, so the imprisoned Beheading King would move along with the train.

It sounds simple.

However, when Han Dong suggested this plan along with the time constraints, the embedded chip inside Little Yellow nearly burned out.

Still, through intricate calculations, a barely feasible plan was derived… If the ideal maximum modification could be reached, it might just be in time.

The entire modification process would require a significant increase in manpower.

It needed not only not-so-bright zombies as forced labor but also the assistance of Green and his crazy troop.

The origins of the crazy troop, just like Bug Lord Gerda, belong to the Xyachichith species.

Due to the rules of the London game, they tried to maintain a human appearance as much as possible.

Barely recognizable as human, heads were set between masses of flesh or connected through body segments, with compound eyes or protruding curved teeth,

Tentacles (ranging from 4 to 16) spilling out from evaginated body cavities,

and backs were either equipped with paired insect wings or carried comparably heavy shells.

No matter what they were in the past, now they have donned employee uniforms imprinted with the Hyperion logo, assigned to different positions based on their capabilities, and will work non-stop for three days.

Even Green, whose soul has not fully recovered, was pulled into this.

Unique to Green, his ‘Abyss Characteristics’ can play a crucial role in transporting, allowing any material to be moved super-quickly through the Abyss.

I assumed that given Green’s personality, he would refuse such ‘boring trivial matters,’ but when Han Dong made the request, the reply was:

“Since I cannot go out and fight right now, use my body however you want… Your plan seems interesting.”

The ‘King-level Event’ increased Green’s trust in Han Dong once again.

It can even be said that no one has ever achieved such a degree of intimacy with Green from the time he was born until now.

Moreover, it’s not just trust; even on the level of [interest], Han Dong has surpassed other Elements, ranking first in Green’s heart.

While the ‘unshell plan’ was carried out methodically.

The Metal Zombies secretly dispatched by Han Dong passed through the storm magnetic field and successfully reached London City.

The dark minions guarding the city gates recognized [The Zombie] as a scout from a hostile force,

and as they were accumulating dark energy, preparing to launch an attack… a crow hidden in the zombie’s mouth suddenly burst out, like a phonograph playing Han Dong’s words directly into the minion’s brain.

“I am Black Moon Archbishop–[Valen. Nicholas], this zombie is a controllable creature made through Hyperion technology, and many pieces of evidence related to me are left on him.

The important intelligence about what happened at Hyperion is recorded in the zombie’s brain, please make sure to notify Father Lysos immediately.”

Once verified as correct.

The intelligence quickly spread to the upper echelons of London, including the King-level Force Head of the Great Demon Leader.

After repeated verifications confirmed correctness, everyone was incredibly shocked… the typically lazy birth mother stood up straight, somewhat unwilling to believe the information recorded within the zombie’s brain.

“A hostile King-level has been imprisoned?

Even if we lost a Mythic Body, to use a device created by a certain local [The King] seems a bit too extreme.”

The tentacles on the back of the birth mother’s head wriggled continuously, conducting a deeper validation of the zombie’s memories.

However, in the midst of excitement, the expression of the Great Demon Leader gradually turned into one of concern:

“Since our combat plan has been fully implemented, Marlon and Alex, both King-levels, have led a large force away from London… we simply cannot spare anyone to deal with the King imprisoned at Hyperion right now.

If the enemy discovers that we have redeployed our forces, they might seize London by extraordinary means.

How to handle this is a troublesome matter…”

“Then there’s no need to fuss about it~

Since the information that was sent back does not contain any requests for support, this indicates that they still have spare capacity and are confident in continuing to restrict this [King].

Just carry out the combat plan with peace of mind, and have faith in these young ones.

Nicholas has obtained ‘prison privileges’ and has been directly recognized by My King.”

The Black Night birth mother’s unusual trust in Han Dong also stemmed from their private, intimate interactions.

More importantly, the present moment was a critical juncture determining life or death… Only the birth mother knew the remaining quantity of Land Deed energy, and both she and the Great Demon Leader were indispensable for London’s survival at this time.

A great war could erupt at any moment.

The Black Night Priest folded his hands in front of him in a triangular formation, and drew a conclusion:

“If that’s the case, then we’ll leave the situation in Hyperion to Archbishop Nicholas to manage, while we remain focused on the current battle.

At the same time, we will not consider the situation of a King being restricted, and everything will be executed according to the Great Demon Leader’s combat plan.”

Just as the discussion ended and the birth mother withdrew her tentacles from the zombie’s head.

Following the command to ‘share memory,’ the Metal Zombies proceeded with the next order arranged by Han Dong.

He plunged his hands into his own chest.

Whoosh!

In front of everyone, he spread his chest cavity open, revealing a piece of characteristic dark Underworld element pressed beneath the heart… upon which special starlight carvings spelled out – [To be delivered to Pope] in Demon text.

“Is this intel related to the world’s core? I’ll deliver the message… Let’s conclude the meeting here.”

Father Lysos took the message from beneath the heart and was about to head to the British Library when he stepped through the doorway.

Without any warning, a beam of positron light descended from the heavens.

Striking directly against the Land Deed Barrier enveloping London, it burst forth with an extremely bright light… The Land Deed energy, which was estimated to last for three more days, was depleted at an alarmingly rapid rate.

Within minutes, the Land Deed in the birth mother’s hands turned into a piece of useless paper.

The Barrier was broken.

A brilliance composed of five Constant Stars overlaid each other, instantly covering the streets and alleys of London City, with the searing of flesh and the agonized howls of Demons arising throughout the streets.

At the same time, billows of black smoke rose from the depths of the Thames, serving as a temporary barrier.

Boom! Boom! Boom!! The bell tolls from various directions rang out.

“All hands prepare for war!”

The voice of Father Lysos, along with the bells from various churches, rang out together.

The residents quickly raised backup black umbrellas and proceeded to their respective areas, ready to face the impending invasion.
