Poverty makes me capable of anything.

Chapter 56 Don't worry, my sword is fast.

Although the auxiliary mask covered half of their faces, and although their hairstyles, hair colors, and clothing had changed, Anderson still recognized Anran and Ella at a glance.

Anran is very strong, but Ella can easily flatten the Polcher alloy rod into a metal disc, which is beyond what the word "superhuman strength" can describe.

Even with professional cutting tools, it would take some time to cut such a thick metal rod.

This is simply a monster!

Anderson looked nervously at An Ran who had suddenly appeared.

Although they are nominally partners, this guy doesn't follow any rules when it comes to work. Last time, they agreed to raid the Twin Towers Colosseum together, but he said he got lost.

I thought Night Owl would be furious, but she actually found Fitch's exact location again. Although this caused Walter to get caught up in the mess, it seems that Night Owl is becoming more and more interested in her.

It's not just about taking advantage.

Anderson could clearly perceive the difference.

They and Night Owl were merely using each other, because their shared target was Fitch, while Anran...

Anderson couldn't explain it.

"Who is it!"

Zod didn't recognize Anran and Ella, and immediately pointed his gun at Anran.

"and many more!"

Anderson quickly stopped him.

The laser is incredibly fast, but the time it takes to pull the trigger is enough to safely complete multiple attacks.

We need to at least ascertain Enron's objectives before proceeding.

"Ok?"

Maggie wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth with her sleeve and looked up at An Ran.

She had a similar bun hairstyle, a flat chest, and a little girl.

Such a combination is a memory that is deeply etched in my heart and will never fade!

asshole!

Maggie struggled to stand up, but the person next to her slapped her and sent her flying again.

We can't hold on any longer.

cough.

I just want to fall asleep like this, so all the pain will be gone. No, Maggie gritted her teeth and stared wide-eyed at Anran and Zod.

Anderson didn't even glance at Maggie. He asked, "What are you doing here?"

"Don't be nervous, of course I'm here to help you."

An Ran glanced around at everyone in the room.

Besides Maggie, Anderson has a total of 10 people on his side. It's impossible to eliminate them instantly and prevent them from passing on the message, so we have to take other measures.

"Help us?" Anderson looked at An Ran suspiciously.

"You can ask Nadia if you don't believe me."

Anderson nodded: "I appreciate it, but we don't need any extra manpower right now. I appreciate your kindness."

"Are you sure you don't need more people?" An Ran took a step forward. "When I came over just now, I saw at least 40 strangers coming up the pontoon, and there are more strangers coming along the way. Do you really have enough manpower?"

An Ran smiled.

Anderson's expression changed. He wasn't afraid of one stranger, or even two, but if dozens or hundreds of strangers rushed over at once, he might be forced into a corner like before.

There are also some very talented people among the strangers.

Zod scoffed, "So what? Even if what you say is true, even if we're really short-handed, adding you won't make a difference. Fine, since you know Anderson, you can leave on your own. Don't make me resort to violence; I can be very violent when I do. The little girl should just stay home and play quietly."

"Zod!" Anderson quickly called out to Zod.

Isn't this just stirring up trouble?

An Ran raised an eyebrow slightly, but just then, the person in the crew room suddenly shouted excitedly, "It's done! It's done! The lock has been successfully cracked!"

He jumped up and opened the door to report the good news to Anderson again, but lowered his hand after noticing that the atmosphere outside was a bit off.

What happened during the few minutes he spent meticulously cracking the code?

"It's done?"

Anderson turned around abruptly, no longer caring what An Ran had come for.

The lock was unlocked, which means they had accomplished half of their goal.

"It really worked?" Zod was overjoyed. He was quite panicked when he first betrayed them, but now he has perfectly integrated into the role of a traitor.

Maggie glared at him hatefully, but Zod completely ignored her.

"Don't waste any more time, take a look quickly." Anderson pushed the person directly into the house.

He was cautiously wary of everyone around him.

This includes Enron and Zod.

"Let me see!" Zod wanted to go in.

But Anderson stopped him and subtly winked at where An Ran was standing.

Zod's anger vanished instantly. He had a point; he needed to be wary of that woman.

He turned away silently.

Ha ha.

Anderson was pleased to see that his gaze had worked.

"Sigh." An Ran sighed, "I wanted to help you with good intentions, but you treated me like a thief. It's really heartbreaking."

“Exactly!” Ella chimed in.

"..."

asshole!

Maggie's eyes burned with an endless flame!

I will make sure the sky can no longer obscure my vision, and I will burn you all to death with my fury!

Zod's expression was strange; having never dealt with Anran before, he was momentarily at a loss.

Why not just capture these girls who seem a bit dim-witted and lock them up? Is it really necessary to argue with them? Are they Harrison's daughters, or the daughters of some big shot on Night Owl's side?

Anran took out a bee-like detector from behind her and threw it out of the door under the tense gazes of Zod and Anderson.

"Are you planning to use this stadium to crash into the Time Energy Tower?" An Ran continued to ask.

Anderson did not answer, and Zod was simply following orders, unaware of the situation.

"Damn it!" The hacker suddenly frowned.

Anderson asked, "What happened?"

"This unit is custom-made. From its design perspective, Sky Mountain can only move in one direction."

"What?" Anderson was taken aback.

An Ran immediately had a guess.

really--

"Yes, barring any unforeseen circumstances, once all units are fully activated, Sky Mountain will only move further and further away from the Time Energy Tower," the hacker said in a deep voice.

"How could this be?" Anderson was dumbfounded.

In that case, wouldn't the plan be...?

I knew it!

An Ran chuckled.

“You…” Zod raised his gun, his face grim.

Anderson's face was also ashen.

“I knew it. Since they dared to put Sky Mountain and Time Energy Tower together, how could they not have considered this kind of thing?” An Ran said with a smile.

It's unbearable to repair!

Anderson, too lazy to bother with An Ran, turned around and asked, "Is there a way to change direction?"

"Of course not!"

An Ran continued, "With so few people right now, even if you've really managed to get everything sorted out, this area is probably already completely surrounded. You must have all sorts of contingency plans in place."

"Yes……"

The hacker nodded bitterly: "She's right, it's simply beyond my skill level."

This……

Hey.

As soon as the bracelet beeped, Anderson connected to the communication; it was a message from someone on another flight crew.

They encountered the same predicament.

“What if we shut down all the units?” Anderson asked.

"Even without the four backup units, the Sky Mountain wouldn't be able to hit the Time Energy Tower if it fell straight down."

An Ran's words make a lot of sense.

So even though Anderson looked very unhappy, he couldn't refute anything.

"All you do is make sarcastic remarks," Zod scoffed.

That's about enough to push them to their limits.

An Ran said in a gentle tone, "I already told you I'm here to help you, but you didn't believe me. I'm a mechanic, after all. Let me take a look; maybe I can find some loopholes."
