Chapter 741: Powerful Support
At three in the morning in Kanyue City during winter, heavy snowflakes were drifting outside, and a gust of cold wind made people involuntarily shrink their necks.
The snow today had been falling for several hours, covering the entire Luoyan Dock in white, making the whole world seem silent.
Miaoqiu and the others had already placed the materials needed for the array in every corner of the medicine warehouse. Everyone hid in their predetermined positions within Luoyan Dock.
The Xu Family had made ample preparations for this operation.
However, they couldn’t acquire satellite equipment or surveillance.
This is Luoyan Dock, part of the Alliance; don’t think they’re just old-fashioned people.
The entire Luoyan Dock is a highly sophisticated place, and using satellite surveillance or infiltrating the internal network here would be immediately detected.
The network security level here is among the best in the entire Celestial Dragon Continent.
So even if Miaoqiu wanted to use modern technology, even the simplest communication devices would be blocked the moment Lin Tian stepped into the medicine warehouse.
The entire medicine warehouse was surrounded by jamming devices.
As for heat-sensing equipment, they didn’t need it at all. Using Charming Skill to confuse everyone, wouldn’t the guards be like wooden dummies? Was there even a need for those?
"Lin Tian... if you notice anything wrong, retreat immediately!" Mei Ruyan looked at Lin Tian seriously, with rare gentleness on her icy face.
"Ruyan, don’t speak! Save your strength." Miaoqiu quickly said.
Lin Tian and Mei Ruyan were the core of this operation. Mei Ruyan was the array’s central point, and if she couldn’t hold on, Lin Tian would be in a life-or-death situation!
So she must maintain her optimal state, preferably without saying an extra word, and adjust to her peak condition.
"I understand! Rest assured, nothing will happen." Lin Tian said with a smile on his face.
For some reason, seeing his smile made the two women feel relieved; didn’t he always manage to create miracles?
"Let’s begin!" Miaoqiu said.
Mei Ruyan nodded and then sat cross-legged on a mat, holding a round stone in her hand.
There was nothing special about the jade bead. Upon close inspection, one could see that the stone had been polished very smoothly, with a bright red jewel embedded in its center, exuding a beautiful radiance.
Mei Ruyan closed her eyes, focusing all her attention, entering a meditative state. She muttered quickly in a complex language that Lin Tian couldn’t understand.
Buzz~
With a humming sound, the jade bead seemed to turn into a small sun, emitting a faint halo and a hot temperature.
Lin Tian could clearly feel that his surrounding world had changed, as if something had descended, creating an isolated realm.
Mysterious and inexplicable.
Lin Tian knew that the ’Fox Allure’ array had been activated.
He almost witnessed some of the Xu Family’s most confidential secrets, though he only saw the tip of the iceberg. Even if he knew the whole process, he couldn’t steal it due to the numerous specific conditions required.
"Begin. If we are discovered later, don’t panic, just knock them out, and leave the rest to us." Miaoqiu said softly, sitting beside Mei Ruyan to protect her.
Lin Tian understood her meaning: after knocking them out, they could use the array to clear those people’s short-term memories, achieving perfection!
Lin Tian nodded, quickly channeling his Spiritual Qi throughout his body. Soon, his Spiritual Qi resonated with Chen Moxiang’s.
A strange yet familiar sense of perception slowly expanded, from one room to a house, and finally spreading around the entire medicine warehouse.
This was a vast area, almost covering half of Luoyan Dock.
The surrounding plants, walls, tiles, and all living creatures formed a blurry concept in Lin Tian’s perception, as if he had a mental map!
With such an auxiliary array, no wonder Miaoqiu didn’t prepare any modern equipment. This was far more useful than those gadgets!
"I’m off."
Lin Tian whispered, then slipped into the night wearing the invisibility cloak given by Chen Moxiang.
With light steps, Lin Tian quickly sneaked to the entrance of the medicine warehouse.
He had been here a couple of days ago and was stopped by two guards last time.
Two people were still standing at the entrance, and after observing them for a few moments, Lin Tian found their eyes vacant and dull, like two pieces of wood.
Holding his breath, Lin Tian picked up a stone and threw it towards them.
The stone hit the ground, making a clear sound in the night, yet the two acted as if nothing had happened.
These two had already been confused by the array! They were essentially useless!
Lin Tian immediately felt relieved, bent low, then pounced forward, darting to the base of the wall, bending his knees like a nimble cat, and leaping over the wall.
The guards inside the medicine warehouse were as strict as daytime, with eight armed men at the entrance.
Apart from them, there were three patrol teams making rounds.
Even without X-ray vision, Lin Tian could sense their exact positions through ’Fox Allure,’ so he felt utterly unafraid.
Lin Tian was concerned about two things.
Firstly, the surveillance equipment on the walls were highly precise instruments, and any slight traces could be detected.
Secondly, the doors of the medicine warehouse were tightly locked! It’s utterly impossible for him to unlock those doors without getting discovered!
"Damn it! Is this a joke? Came all this way for nothing?" Lin Tian muttered, his face pale with anxiety.
After all the effort, coming this far, should it all be for nothing because of one door?
Or perhaps... charge in and grab the exquisite dice and run?
When Lin Tian was deeply conflicted, suddenly, the eight armed men at the entrance moved!
Lin Tian’s nerves instantly tensed; had he been discovered despite hiding so well?
Soon, he relaxed again. The men hadn’t discovered him but... opened the medicine warehouse door.
Lin Tian’s eyes widened, his mouth agape; it was like someone handing him a pillow just when he needed a nap!
Once the medicine warehouse door was opened, the eight men returned to their original positions, leaving the door ajar as if waiting for someone to enter.
Lin Tian smacked his forehead, suddenly understanding everything.
These people were trapped within the array, likely experiencing illusions, which is why they opened the door.
No wonder those sly foxes like Miaoqiu never mentioned this; they were utterly confident all along.
