#785 - Start planning
“Don't be surprised, picking you two was inevitable.”
Reed reached out and patted both of them on the shoulders, explaining.
“Tyrone, you can use the dark dimension to teleport, with you here, we can not only sneak in silently, but also lead everyone to escape if the mission fails.”
After Reed finished speaking, he looked at Omega Kid next to him.
“And you, Quentin, your mental abilities allow you to sense the location of living beings. Now, Howard is the only living person in the entire Stark Tower. You can sense his location at any time, so we can know when is the best time to plant the bomb.”
“Sounds like you want to blow that billionaire to kingdom come.” Quentin brushed off Reed's hand on his shoulder.
“There's no way around it, I don't know what Howard is going through now, and I don't know if I can rescue him from control, so killing him directly is the best way.”
Reed sighed, then continued.
“And this is also one of the reasons why I arranged you to be a member of the stealth team. The human brain is very mysterious, and even I can't completely crack its secrets.”
“You mean let me try to rescue him?” Quentin frowned.
“My idea is that you better not do this.” Reed smiled wryly. “The mind and spirit are fields I haven't set foot in yet. I don't know if this kind of mind control will spread like an infectious disease.”
“But now there are already eight cases of madness in the world, and I dare not gamble, so I advise you not to delve into Howard's heart. To be honest, I hesitated again and again when finalizing the candidates whether to choose you.”
“But you still chose me in the end.” Quentin looked puzzled. “Why?”
“Because I believe in you.” Reed said decisively.
“Quentin, I believe in your ability, so I won't doubt you. The reason why I hesitated is because I'm worried about your safety, because I'm not deeply involved in that field, so I dare not guarantee it.”
“I will prove you right.” Quentin raised his face, his proud look showing that he was in a good mood at this time.
…
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, two hours have passed. After Reed prepared everything, the team began to move.
Under the cover of Tyrone and Susan, the stealth team began to steadily advance towards Stark Tower. Because of Howard, Reed didn't dare to let them use communicators to communicate with everyone, so their communication relied entirely on Quentin's mental abilities.
This is also one of the reasons why Reed chose him. The bait team must be flamboyant in their actions because they are bait, so all kinds of technological equipment that are easily noticed by Howard should be as flamboyant as possible.
The stealth team can't do that, so Quentin serves as radar and communicator in the team.
Under Reed's distribution, Dagger Tandy and him are in a team, the Thing Ben and Human Torch are in a team, and Ji Shuangshuang and Acheng are in a team.
This team also has considerations. Ji Shuangshuang and Acheng naturally don't need to say more. The two were originally teammates and cooperated seamlessly. Splitting them up is just asking for trouble.
Ben and Johnny have too good compatibility. With Ben as a teammate, Johnny can use some large-scale destructive skills unscrupulously. They are also the main force of the bait.
As for Tandy and him, in addition to being the remaining ones, it is also because the two can indeed cooperate. After all, the abilities of the two are the type that looks simple but can actually play a lot of tricks.
Under Reed's arrangement, the positions of the people seemed to be far away, but in fact, if they wanted to support, they could arrive within ten or twenty minutes, and Reed arranged Johnny, who was the fastest, at the center point.
If someone really can't hold on, they can also contact Johnny and let him fly to support.
Reed used a very short time to make the best arrangements he could make. He had done everything he could, and now he could only leave it to fate.
Reed glanced at Tandy, who was in position, and after the latter nodded to him, he pressed the installed device.
This is a simple signal transmitter, simply put, it is used to send out a distress signal, and it will definitely be able to attract the attention of the surrounding patrolling Sentinel robots.
Sure enough, as soon as the machine was started, there was a loud roar of thrusters in the distance. Reed barely achieved the level of a telescope by changing his eyes.
In this way, he could see the Sentinel robots flying from a distance clearly. He counted about four or five, probably because they thought they were just ordinary civilians, so they only sent these few.
“Get ready, Tandy.” Reed retracted his eyeballs. “There's going to be a tough battle next.”
…
On the other hand, Reed's bait team moved, and Susan's stealth team naturally had to move along with it.
First, they let Tyrone lead the two through the dark dimension, crossing a distance, until Tyrone could no longer suppress it before they switched to walking.
Tyrone's ability comes from that dark dimension, but Tyrone can only use the power within it to a limited extent. He is not the master of this space.
For example, when taking people through space, if the things carried exceed his power limit, he can't take them. Staying in the dark dimension for too long will also cause the people being carried to die.
Even Tyrone himself will be in danger if he uses that power too much.
Even so, Tyrone has reduced a lot of the journey for the team. Next, they walked step by step to the downstairs of Stark Tower in stealth, using Susan's ability and the protective force field formed by Reed's machine, just like they had planned at the beginning.
Along the way, the three encountered many Sentinel robots. Just like Reed said, there were many models of them, but none of them could find the traces of the three.
It can be said that the journey was full of thrills but exceptionally smooth.
The current Stark Tower looks like an iron tower cast in copper and iron. From the outside, it is seamless, and there is not even an entrance. Susan estimates that the entrance to this iron tower is only the Sentinel robot launch port on the waist of the building.
But this is not difficult for the three. Tyrone used his ability again, and the three successfully entered the interior of the building through the dark dimension.
Although he had used his ability for a long time before, simply passing through a wall would not burden Tyrone.
The exterior of the building is integrated, but there is still space for people to walk inside, because this building was originally transformed on the basis of an office building, and there must be many passages.
However, because there is no internal map, the three did not dare to act rashly. Fortunately, Ji Shuangshuang brought the internal map of Stark Tower, and the team can move forward according to this map.
