Song Yaoyao: Was this really the time to explain how binoculars worked?
After they had observed the area for the time it took an incense stick to burn, Chen Yixiao said:
"It's still early. We'll move once it's completely dark."
"Yes."
Once darkness fell, torches were lit in the distant stronghold.
Chen Yixiao and the others prepared to move.
The plan they had discussed yesterday was to use Song Yaoyao's Drone to scatter knockout powder from the air.
The Drone, of course, was a transformed version of Song Yaoyao's Pistol.
Before taking action, they all took the antidote. If the wind carried the powder their way and they inhaled it, knocking themselves out, they would be in trouble.
Why didn't they simply use explosives? Naturally, they couldn't bear to waste all that labor.
This was free labor! How wonderful it would be to capture them and put them to work!
The coal mine happened to be short of workers. These men would be just the thing!
They had chosen to act at night because the Drone would be harder to spot after dark.
Song Yaoyao loaded the knockout powder onto the Drone and sent it flying into the sky.
At the same time, footage from the Drone appeared on the screen above Song Yaoyao's head.
Everywhere the Drone went was displayed on the screen.
Chen Yixiao and Ning Chaoyun had never expected to be able to watch the operation like this. What a different experience!
In the footage, the Drone first flew above the hidden sentries and scattered the knockout powder.
In an instant, the sentries collapsed.
Then the Drone flew toward the distant stronghold.
Once it was directly above the stronghold's front courtyard, it slowly scattered the knockout powder.
The guards in the front courtyard inhaled the powder
