Chapter 475 - 244: New Base
Seventeen bombs in place, Lin Wu checked the time and saw there was 1 minute and a half left. He gestured to Little Knife to withdraw and quietly approached Blood Heart above the center of the grid.
The central position of the grid where Blood Heart was located consisted of a platform made up of two stacks of containers, approximately 40 square meters in area. Without a ceiling stretching over it, the root-tentacles of the Blood Heart wound downward, densely enveloping the two stacks of containers.
The two Titans acted like the guards of Blood Heart, patrolling the platform irregularly. They were the targets that Maya and Lin Wu had observed for the longest time. In Maya’s plan, Lin Wu had only 45 seconds to place the bomb near Blood Heart and set off the smoke grenade.
The first difficulty lay in Lin Wu having to activate the bomb around the 45-second mark, with an error margin of no more than two seconds. He couldn’t be too fast or too slow.
The second difficulty was to not alarm the Titans; they had to endure as much of the cannonade as possible. If they were to chase after the players leaving their positions, the damage from the shelling would be significantly diminished, which would be extremely detrimental to the subsequent assault operations.
Lin Wu lurked on Corridor Bridge, on the north side of the grid, about 7 meters away from the center. The two Titans were on the east and west sides of the platform, occasionally taking a few steps and causing a significant tremble. Lin Wu was waiting for the right moment and also for the clock to tick down.
If there was no opportunity, at 45 seconds, Lin Wu would set off the smoke grenade, embracing the bomb Wind Stinger to reach the platform and activate the bomb. Before being taken out by the Titans, he would leave the smoke grenade and the bomb on the platform.
There was still time, still a chance, and the opportunity was created by Blood Heart itself. Its enormous body rose to form a barrier; as long as the two Titans moved together to the south side around the 45 seconds mark, Lin Wu would have the chance to complete his mission and retreat unscathed.
