Chapter 694 Detonation(1/2)
Time passes minute by minute.
A few hundred meters away, Zhou Lu could reach it in minutes.
But this time, it took him more than half an hour.
As long as you get there safely, it's well worth the extra time.
finally,
He arrives at the designated location.
This place is about three hundred meters high from the Scorpion Fort below.
This location is at the dividing point between the upper and lower rock formations.
The dividing point is looser shale.
What Zhou Lu wanted to explode was the weak point of the rock mass.
Exploding this weak point may cause an artificial landslide.
But it must be detonated deeply.
Exploding the exterior will have no effect.
Zhou Lu's arrival at this location was just the prelude to detonating the plan.
He also had to dig a hole deep enough to stuff the large bag of explosives behind him.
As for these steps, Tang Ya and others have done detailed simulations and planning, so the preparations are sufficient.
Zhou Lu first put the explosive pack on his back, slowly placed it in a cave in the stone wall that could support the weight, and used weeds to camouflage it.
Then he took out a folded large bag and hung it firmly on his waist. Then he pulled out the fish intestine sword and slowly dug into the rock wall at a suitable location.
The fish intestine sword infused with soul power can cut loose shale as easily as cutting butter.
But when you want to cut it, it is very difficult not to make any sound.
Zhou Lu slowly stabbed the fish intestine sword into the shale, and then drew it straight to the side.
Cut two cross sections, then two vertical sections.
In this case, he cut out a rectangular rock block, broke it with his hands, and put it into the prepared bag.
After it has been installed to a certain extent, find a place to pour out the rocks and place them.
All actions must be done quietly and cannot be discovered by the Black Scorpion mercenaries below.
Zhou Lu was now like a strange miner, carefully digging out rocks on the cliff.
Whenever strong light comes, he will quickly cover the hole with branches and weeds and hide his body.
So the progress is not very fast.
An hour passed.
Zhou Lu dug a cave about ten meters deep.
This cave can be used by Zhou Lu to crawl into.
His face was gray, but his eyes were full of excitement.
So exciting!
I have just placed the explosive pack in the deepest part of the cave and it is finally completed.
Zhou Lu breathed out gently.
Finally completed this difficult step.
Completing this item means a big step towards success.
The next step is to detonate it.
But you can't detonate it like this. Your own people are not far away.
When detonating, you must be in a safe position.
A timed explosive device solves this problem.
Zhou Lu pressed the button on the remote control outside the small cave.
A slight "beep" sound came from the small cave.
A small red light flashed in the cave.
Ten minutes countdown!
He has to leave the cliff and reach a safe location within ten minutes.
There was not much time, Zhou Lu did not hesitate, he increased his speed to the limit, swam quickly on the cliff, and skimmed sideways.
Take away the weight and move easily.
His body is as light as a feather, and he can use his strength to jump far away by simply tapping his toes on the branches and leaves of the cliff.
It didn't take long for Zhou Lu to leave the Scorpion Fortress sideways from the cliff and land on the flat ground.
Only six minutes have passed.
He didn't stop moving, he was still running as fast as he could, his figure was invisible to the naked eye like a fleeting light.
He paid attention to the time on his watch and silently counted down the blast.
At this time, the ten-minute countdown ends.
He stopped and looked back towards the cliff.
On a quiet night, the sky is filled with stars.
Everything seems beautiful.
Suddenly, a blazing light flashed from the cliff above the Scorpion Castle.
The next second,
"Rumble..."
The explosion resounded through the sky like wild thunder!
Instantly breaks the beauty and tranquility of the night.
The earth shook and the mountains shook, and countless birds and beasts in the mountains were frightened.
The degree of shaking on the ground this time was many times stronger than that of a mortar bombing. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as an earthquake.
Many standing or walking sentries and patrols fell down.
The buildings in Scorpion Fortress were cracked, and a crack appeared in the strong and thick high wall.
The momentum is extremely terrifying!
The sentries had no idea what happened. They only heard that the location of the explosion was on the cliff behind.
The extremely violent explosion made their ears ring.
The sentries all looked up to see the cliff.
It was discovered that countless rocks were falling from the cliff.
suddenly,
The Black Scorpion Sentinel screamed at the top of his lungs!
Realizing that they were under attack, they thought it was a shelling, but they didn't understand why the shells hit the cliff.
Since rocks fall from the cliff, the Black Scorpion mercenaries rarely live in houses close to the cliff.
Although the falling rocks were shocking and damaged buildings, they caused no casualties and did not continue to explode.
It seemed that everything was calm again.
The soldiers in the Ace Army's base camp ran out of the military tents one after another, picked up their weapons, and stared at the top of the cliff with full vigilance, their eyes full of doubts and shock.
Facing an army of thousands of people, how could the other side dare to attack?
Are you seeking death?
Why don't bombs blow up people instead of blowing them up on cliffs?
Why was the explosion so loud and what weapon was used?
The falling rocks did not cause many casualties to the Black Scorpion mercenaries, nor did they have any impact on the Luzon Ace Army camp.
Therefore, the Ace Army sentry did not respond immediately. He wanted to continue to observe for a few seconds and confirm before reporting.
For Zhou Lu, Tang Ya and others, after the explosion, every second that passed seemed like the past year.
It’s extremely exciting and extremely stressful.
Tick-tock-tick...tick-tock...
As the seconds passed, Zhou Lu felt extremely disappointed.
To be continued...
