136: 136.
T62M Anti-Tank Mine 136: 136.
T62M Anti-Tank Mine In the blink of an eye, Lu Li had returned to the villa’s garage.
He commanded his puppet to change out of its damaged clothing, then quickly took out his cell phone to contact the arms dealer, Miss Aurora.
It was noon on his side, and the other party answered instantly, “Handsome young man, what do you need?”
Lu Li was direct, “I need an anti-tank mine for killing a person.”
“Blow up a person…” Aurora hesitated for a moment and said,
“Are you sure you need that much firepower?
Also, an anti-tank mine is a ‘directional mine,’ with most of its force directed upwards.”
“I’m sure of what I need.
With time pressing, can you get it in 12 hours?”
Lu Li had already thought it through.
He wasn’t planning to blow up ordinary people, and he had to avoid harming Chen Zhizhong and the members of the National Martial Arts Association.
Thus, the huge and directional power of an anti-tank mine was very suitable.
Then, Aurora said,
“You know…
an anti-tank mine requires a pressure trigger of 200 kilograms, right?”
“I’m aware, so I’d like you to modify it for remote detonation as well.”
“You make it sound so easy; I have to handle the mine and modify it for you…”
“I’ll pay you a million dollars for your trouble,” Lu Li interrupted, “If you can complete it within six hours, I’ll give you…
two million.”
“Two million…” The phone immediately transmitted the sound of Aurora breathing heavily, followed by a hoarse shout,
“No problem!
Get the money ready!
Send it through the normal channels, into my bank account.”
…
After hanging up the phone, the next step was to wait patiently.
Lu Li was not idle; he went to the yard to practice the White Dragon Whip Skill, striving to reach the standard for Ascending Realm and Refining Internal Organs as soon as possible.
“Kill Fan Shouyi, then raid his home.
The study of a Cultivator of Fetal Breathing Realm must hold many treasures.”
“But this man must die first!”
Lu Li was resolute in his intent to kill Fan Shouyi, not only because of the need to obtain the Cultivation Method and the past deception with Ice Crystal Opium.
Personal grievances had to be set aside—the main reason was that Fan Shouyi represented the court in drug trafficking!
Lu Li was all too aware of the consequences of government agencies becoming drug traffickers; in New York, the largest city of Star Alliance Country, there were government-endorsed opium injection sites.
The mayor of New York was quite proud, declaring on media and social platforms:
“We are the first city in the Star Alliance Country to establish an official government-authorized opium injection site, providing clean needles and medical care for addicts.”
The result was that on the first day of operation, there were individuals who overdosed and died tragically.
The mayor jumped out and stated, “At least it can prevent them from dying on the streets.”
…
Back then, Lu Li saw the relevant videos and was shocked by the mayor’s proud manner; his three views were immensely shaken!
Of course, Lu Li did not feel any sense of belonging; after the shock, he took it as a joke and did not care any longer.
But now, a world with a similar cultural background was facing a similar issue, and he felt compelled to intervene!
Thinking this, Lu Li’s movements while practicing his punches became three times faster and three times fiercer.
Correspondingly, the physical exertion was also particularly great, and after three hours, Lu Li had reached his limit.
After taking a shower, he drove to the pharmacy next to the “Tijuana General Hospital.”
He was not there to buy medicines, but instead to buy—lead cloth.
This material could protect against radiation and was typically used in environments like CT rooms and radiology departments, where patients’ families and medical staff frequently made purchases.
Lead also blocks the probing of the Heavenly Eye, and Fan Shouyi was in the Fetal Breathing Realm, having already opened the Heavenly Eye, so precautions were necessary.
Therefore, Lu Li had come specifically to buy a large roll of lead cloth to store in the trunk, along with a large tube of strong, fast-setting adhesive.
After completing all these tasks, five hours had passed.
Suddenly Aurora called, “Come to my place; I have everything ready!”
~~~~~~~~~
People become especially proactive when they have something to look forward to, and Miss Aurora completed the task with unprecedented efficiency.
When Lu Li arrived at the abandoned factory in the suburbs riding a “Raptor” drone, he found the woman already waiting with three devices resembling “sweeping robots.”
“These are T62M anti-tank mines, designed and developed by the former Steel Alliance, known for their immense power.”
Miss Aurora stepped on the “sweeping robot” and introduced it.
She then took out something resembling a car key “remote control” from her pocket and said,
“The original device had a trigger pressure of 200 kilograms, but I modified it according to your instructions; now it can be detonated remotely.”
Lu Li nodded and said, “Let’s see the power, detonate one.”
“Ok, I’ll demonstrate for you.
First, you need to connect the ‘remote detonator’—”
Aurora inserted something resembling a “silver firecracker” into a hole in the middle of the “sweeping robot,” then threw the mine under a scrapped car some distance away.
She turned and walked back, handed the remote control to Lu Li, and said,
“You press it.
You need to press the button twice in succession to detonate it, to prevent accidental activation.”
Lu Li took the remote and pressed the button twice.
Instantly, a deafening blast sounded in the distance.
The directional explosion created a “columnar” high-speed penetrating jet of flame, shooting up to the height of six or seven floors.
The car was blown to smithereens, with various parts falling from the sky.
Lu Li was somewhat surprised,
“I thought it would flip the car, never expected it would just shatter it.
Impressive!”
He was very satisfied and took out his cell phone to ask, “Send me the bank account…
Why don’t you accept cash anymore?”
Legitimate transfers required paying taxes.
Aurora shrugged and explained,
“I’ve sent my family to the Star Alliance Country, I had to leave them an inheritance that could be legally passed on.”
Opposing a drug lord meant you could be killed any time; it was best to make arrangements for after you were gone.
Lu Li nodded and transferred the money.
After receiving the money, Miss Aurora broke into a broad grin, “Ha, you sure make payments promptly!”
“Goodbye, Miss Arms Dealer.”
Having the puppets carry the anti-tank mines and taking two “remote detonators” from Aurora, Lu Li drove away.
~~~~~~~~~~~
While Lu Li was busy, Xiao Cha was not idle either.
She ran to an uninhabited alley near the Prefectural Magistrate and took out a foldable drone from her pocket.
Seeing that there was no one around, she let the drone take off.
Watching the footage sent back, Xiao Cha couldn’t help but marvel at the wonder of the device, time and again!
Roads, buildings, alleyways – all the details on the ground were clearly visible!
But Xiao Cha’s focus wasn’t on these things.
She operated the drone at a height of 200 meters, observing the patrol paths of the Military Guard within the compound of the government office.
“The Council Hall is to the left of the main building, and the defenses are not tight!”
“That’s right, it’s not that important a place!”
After careful observation and noting the pattern, Xiao Cha maneuvered the drone through a window and took several photographs inside the Council Hall.
Having completed her reconnaissance, she retrieved the drone and left, pondering in her heart,
“I need to ask Uncle Chen if Fan Shouyi is still sitting in the first seat on the left…”
As she thought this, she unexpectedly ran into Chen Zhizhong on her way.
Judging by his direction, he was clearly headed to her home.
Indeed, Chen Zhizhong said, “I was just on my way to find you.
Tomorrow, you’ll come with me to a meeting at the government office.”
Hearing this, Xiao Cha was slightly taken aback, “I’m going too?”
“I want to introduce you to Prefect Zhang and try to secure a solid position for you.”
Chen Zhizhong felt that a real position offered not only good income but also great power, which could be convenient for any endeavor.
Xiao Cha asked with a curious expression, “Uncle Chen, is Fan Shouyi still sitting in the first seat on the left?”
In this context, Chen Zhizhong felt a sudden panic, “You’re not planning to stir up trouble tomorrow, are you!?”
