• The Holy Corpse Legion’s two S-Minus Rank Implant Users, Lion and Fatty, attack Tower B. However, a hidden Fourth Rank Extraordinary Profession user from the Assassin’s League uses invisible crimson threads to wound and halt them.
• A mysterious female voice declares that S-Minus Rank Implant Users and Fourth Rank Extraordinary Profession users are forbidden from fighting. This establishes a limit on the battle: all open conflict must remain below the A-level and Third Rank threshold.
• Unable to locate or challenge the Assassin’s League expert, Lion and Fatty retreat after less than five minutes. Their failure causes the observing mercenary groups to question whether Si Ying is truly the Si Clan heir, though none are willing to abandon the opportunity.
• At the Formula Car racing track, Lin Qi finishes installing a large transmitter and creating a local network capable of controlling the modified vehicles. Guangleng sends him Tower B’s structural blueprint and reveals that Si Ying is somewhere between the 80th and 85th floors.
• Guangleng explains that Lin Qi can assassinate Si Ying, complete his mission, and frame the Round Table, a European Political Zone force operating the aircraft attacking the city.

• Arthur demonstrates caution and strategic judgment. Although he possesses an S-level Cybernetic Prosthesis, he recognizes the danger of confronting an S-Minus Rank opponent and chooses to remain hidden while assessing the battlefield.
• Lion and Fatty are established as extremely powerful but vulnerable to higher-ranking Extraordinary Profession users. Their failed assault damages the Holy Corpse Legion’s reputation and forces them to retreat.
• Lin Qi proves himself capable of executing complex technological preparations under pressure. He also shows boldness and opportunism by immediately exploiting the aircraft attack to advance his own assassination plan.
• Guangleng appears increasingly manipulative and strategically superior. Her ability to gather intelligence, provide structural blueprints, and arrange for others to bear the blame suggests that her mercenary identity may be largely a cover.
• Si Ying remains the central target, though she does not appear directly. Her uncertain identity and location drive the actions of the competing factions.

Significant Themes

• Power hierarchies and restraint: The confrontation highlights the enormous gap between high-ranking combatants. The restriction against S-Minus and Fourth Rank battles prevents the city from being destroyed outright while still allowing lower-level factions to compete.
• Factional conflict and hidden agendas: Multiple organizations act simultaneously, each using the chaos for its own objectives. The true motives behind the attacks remain obscured.
• Manipulation and scapegoating: Guangleng’s plan depends on framing the Round Table, showing how political and mercenary operations rely on misinformation and controlled blame.
• Technology as warfare: Cybernetic bodies, surveillance, hacking, missiles, aircraft, and remotely controlled vehicles all function as weapons. Modern combat is presented as a combination of physical force and technological control.
• Chaos as opportunity: Large-scale disorder does not merely create danger; it allows clever actors such as Lin Qi to conceal their movements and launch unexpected attacks.

Character Interactions

• Arthur communicates with his allies through his wristband, warning them about the likely involvement of an S-Minus Rank force and multiple major factions.
• Lion and Fatty confront the unseen Assassin’s League expert, but the female voice’s prohibition prevents the conflict from escalating. Fatty questions whether the Eastern Alliance is involved, while Lion remains silent.
• Lin Qi relies on Guangleng’s intelligence and instructions, though he privately doubts her claim that she cannot complete the technical work herself. He increasingly suspects that she is orchestrating events from behind the scenes.
• The Formula Car commentator’s excited reaction contrasts with the actual danger as the vehicles are revealed to be driverless and hacked, turning a sporting event into part of Lin Qi’s military operation.

Chapter Summary: “The Twin Towers Were Going Down”

• At the same time, six members of the European Political Zone’s Round Table approach the towers on a plane. Though they cannot destroy the building directly, they use missiles to breach its armor and enter Tower B through the opening.
• The Twin Towers reveal heavy defensive armor made from powerful A-level material, proving that the Si Clan had anticipated aerial attacks.
• Lin Qi studies the tower’s structural layout and identifies the eighty-third floor as a likely vulnerable point because of its unusual reinforcement and a special vertical passage.
• Lin Qi contacts Arthur and explains that the towers’ destruction should force Si Ying to escape through the underground pipe system. Arthur is instructed to locate Si Ying without attacking him, since direct confrontation could trigger the revenge fund’s targeting system.
• Lin Qi coordinates the hundred-plus vehicles using Guangleng’s algorithmic assistance. They fire hundreds of A-level missiles at the eighty-third floor, overwhelming the tower’s armor.
• The vehicles then crash into Tower B, detonating their remaining weapons in a massive chain reaction.
• Si Ying, who is alone inside the supposedly secure room on the eighty-third floor, is caught off guard. The building’s intelligence system detects the danger and activates the safe room’s emergency escape mechanism, sending it rapidly underground.
• The impact causes the upper half of the Twin Towers to tilt violently, while flames and smoke pour from the breach. The towers begin to collapse.

Character Developments

• Lin Qi demonstrates greater strategic ability and control. He combines structural intelligence, remote vehicle coordination, and psychological pressure to attack the Si Clan indirectly rather than confronting its defenses head-on.
• Arthur is assigned a tracking and observation role, showing that Lin Qi trusts him to monitor the underground escape routes while avoiding unnecessary risks.
• Si Ying is presented as vulnerable despite his supposedly impenetrable safe room. His reliance on corporate defenses is challenged when Lin Qi uses an unexpected method of attack.
• The Round Table members display discipline and tactical sophistication. Rather than wasting their limited strength trying to destroy the towers, they use the plane crash to create an entry point and increase the chaos.
• Si Li’s security assessment is proven technically correct but strategically incomplete: the safe room could resist conventional attacks, yet it was not designed to withstand a mass vehicle assault orchestrated through hacking.

Significant Themes

• Unpredictability versus defensive preparation: The Si Clan prepared for planes and conventional attacks but could not anticipate the hijacking of an entire Formula Car fleet.
• Strategy over brute force: Lin Qi’s plan succeeds by exploiting structural weaknesses, timing, and psychological pressure rather than relying on superior personal combat strength.
• Chaos as a weapon: Multiple factions attack the towers simultaneously, making it difficult to identify allies, enemies, or the true objective.
• The vulnerability of power: The heavily fortified Twin Towers symbolize the Si Clan’s authority, yet even this imposing stronghold can be destabilized by a carefully planned surprise attack.
• Information and positioning: Knowledge of the building’s design gives Lin Qi a decisive advantage, while locating Si Ying’s escape route becomes more important than destroying the tower itself.
