Ocean Lords: Start Harvesting Double from Dice Rolls

Chapter 719 - 354: Night Infiltration of the Military District (Part 2)

Meanwhile, Fang Yu’s perception extended like tentacles, silently spreading into every corner around the building.

"One... two... three..."

The locations of each hidden sentinel, along with their levels of concentration, quietly imprinted themselves in Fang Yu’s mind.

At that moment, Fang Yu’s mind conjured a 3D model of the rehabilitation building, with every detail and every area imprinted thoroughly.

Seeing the distribution of the sentinels, Fang Yu couldn’t help but frown slightly.

Each of these sentinels was a top-notch expert, adept in stealth and reconnaissance, quite extraordinary.

His mastery of the Space Law, although having reached the fourth tier with a special qualitative change, allowed him to easily bypass the observation of each hidden sentinel.

But... the distribution of the sentinels formed an integrated whole, almost like an array.

Each node created a comprehensive and complex observation system, making it impossible to avoid the field of vision of all the sentinels, even if he could easily bypass one.

However, Fang Yu was not in a rush.

These sentinels were masters of stealth and reconnaissance, and so was Fang Yu.

He once trained earnestly with a mentor from the Ocean Court, known for concealment, and later made a significant breakthrough in the realm of space.

Even in everyday shooting practice, he continued to hone his skills in concealment and perception, knowing there could never be a surveillance system or array without blind spots.

The greatest flaw in any array is not the array itself, but...

Humans!

As long as they’re human, they will get tired, their attention will wander, and they will have moments of distraction.

After several hours of vigil, how could there not be a lapse?

The energy flow of a wandering mind differs slightly from a focused one.

Fang Yu was waiting for a moment when the most people would be distracted.

"Buzz~~ buzz~~"

The sea breeze blew across the city, rustling the treetops.

Perched on a branch, Fang Yu closed his eyes, calming his breath, as still as a dead object.

Suddenly, Fang Yu’s eyes snapped open, releasing a cloak of secretive power, enveloping him completely in a space isolated from the surroundings.

In the next instant, Fang Yu leaped forward, swiftly advancing towards the rehabilitation building.

Under the influence of Space Law, Fang Yu’s movements became invisible to the naked eye; at most, one might notice a slight distortion in the light, a faint deception of the ground and night.

Yet, given the inherent dimness of night, such subtle distortions barely attracted any attention.

Moreover, at that moment, several sentinels guarding the area around the rehabilitation building coincidentally let their minds wander simultaneously.

When they regained focus and looked ahead, everything appeared normal, with no changes in sight.

The sentinels sensed nothing amiss.

This is, after all, the most crucial military district of the South Island Continent, teeming with experts and heavily guarded. Short of a direct assault by the most formidable, who could possibly touch the old man?

Yet, what the sentinels did not realize was...

There was already someone adept in stealth and Space Law who had quietly entered the old man’s room.

"That was close..."

Fang Yu was secretly alarmed; he had sensed two presences sleeping near the building mere moments ago.

Their presence was imperceptible at a distance, only detectable when he got closer.

These must be two masters among the Seven Generals of South Island. Fang Yu had nearly alerted the sentinels by mistake.

Luckily, these two seemed to be asleep, for if they were in an alert state, they would have definitely noticed the fleeting presence of Fang Yu.

In that case, Fang Yu would have been in an awkward position.

However...

What Fang Yu didn’t know was...

Just as he passed through the sentinels’ area and entered the building where the old man resided,

In a small room near the rehabilitation building, a man with a square face and a thick beard abruptly opened his eyes, peering outside with acute vigilance.

For a moment, the man’s vigilance turned to confusion.

"Huh? Did I sense it wrong?"

The man muttered, his gaze bewildered.

But at his level, any instance of awakening from a dream was far from typical.

Surely something had happened in the military district.

Out of caution, the man quickly put on his shoes and stepped out, striding toward the old man’s ward.

If not for the concern that a sudden surge in energy might disturb the old man in the ward, the man would likely have rushed in explosively.

Nonetheless, he quickly ascended the stairs toward the old man’s room.

...

"Old Man... Old Man..."

Despite the darkness in the room, Fang Yu could still make out the outline of the elderly man on the bed with the faint light of dawn.

The old man lay there peacefully asleep, his once thin body now appearing even more emaciated, his vitality hanging by a thread. Without the machine at his side maintaining basic life signs, his current physical state might not last a few days.

His face was calm and serene, but his skin showed abnormal shades of yellow and black, signs of severe deterioration of physical functions, with non-functioning internal organs.

Seeing the old man in such a state, Fang Yu hesitated for a moment before gently calling out to awaken him.

After a moment, the old man seemed to sense something, slowly opening his eyes.
