…
Seeing Shen Ye so sure, Barret fell into deep thought. To be honest, if it weren't for his hatred for Shinra, he would never be as extreme as he is now. You know, before his family got into trouble, he actually supported Shinra.
"Since you are sure that you can blow up the entire Mako Reactor No. 1, then do as you wish!" After pondering, Barret nodded in agreement with Shen Ye's method.
Jessie and Cloud on the side naturally wouldn't say anything, especially Cloud. He was just a thug, and it didn't matter to him how many people died.
"Let's get out of here now. The explosion can be completed in an instant." Shen Ye raised the remote control in his hand. He only needed to press it lightly, and the Mako Reactor would immediately become a ruin.
"What are we waiting for? Let's go." Barret regained his fighting spirit, shouted loudly, and then took the lead in climbing up the escalator to the overpass.
Cloud and Jessie followed closely, but Shen Ye remained standing on the platform, looking up at the surveillance camera above the center area of the Mako Reactor. He knew that Shinra Company had been monitoring them since they came in.
In fact, even without Scarlet's help, Barret and his team could enter the Mako Reactor smoothly, because Shinra Company had been waiting for them and set up a trap specifically for them.
After all, the time bomb made by Jessie alone cannot completely destroy the Mako Reactor, and naturally it cannot detonate the energy of the Mako Reactor to produce super destructive power.
However, in the original plot, it was the president of Shinra who saw that Avalanche had only brought such a small bomb and was afraid that the power was not enough, so he instructed Heidegger to use the defense system inside the Mako Reactor to actively destroy the Mako Reactor, which led to the deaths of a large number of civilians.
The fundamental reason is that Shinra is afraid that more people will rebel against them, so they deliberately blame it on Avalanche in order to consolidate their rule.
"However," Shen Ye retracted his gaze, turned around, climbed up the escalator, and returned along the original route.
…
"This guy, who was alone and masked, seemed to know that we were monitoring them."
Inside the president's office, Heidegger pressed the controller in his hand, but as he expected, the defense system in the Mako Reactor had lost their control.
President Shinra still maintained his original posture, but his expression was a little more gloomy.
"I'm afraid he not only knows that we are monitoring them, but also knows our plans." The Shinra president said in a low voice.
"This is impossible. Only a few senior executives know about this plan... Wait, Mr. President, is there a traitor among our senior executives?" Heidegger's expression was solemn, but he was already sweating from fear.
"Is there any need to doubt this, Heidegger?" President Shinra stood up from his office chair, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window with his hands behind his back, and stared at the No. 1 Mako Reactor in the distance.
On several roads of the same No. 1 Mako Reactor, a large number of Shinra soldiers and combat machines were gathering there.
"We have to conduct a purge internally." Shinra President said. He remembered Scarlet's proposal last time and said to Heidegger, "Starting tomorrow, send more people to cooperate with Scarlet and Hojo's research. I want to see their research results in a short time."
"Yes, Mr. President." Heidegger put his feet together and nodded in response.
…
Obviously, escaping is always faster than sneaking in.
In less than ten minutes, Shen Ye and his group left the core area of the Mako Reactor and met up with Biggs and Weggie who were waiting outside.
"Barret, did it succeed? I didn't seem to hear any movement." Biggs asked Barret during the retreat.
"It's considered a success, but there's no time to explain to you now. We have to leave here immediately." Barret glanced at Shen Ye and felt a little uneasy. After all, he was not sure whether Shen Ye could really do it.
"What do you mean by success?" Biggs was a little confused and wanted to ask again, but since his leader said there was no time to explain, he could only hold his words back.
Soon, they all escaped from the Mako Reactor.
At this moment, Shen Ye pressed the remote control that he had been holding in his hand.
Boom boom boom…
As a series of dull explosions sounded, the entire No. 1 Mako Reactor began to vibrate violently, and then the teeth-grinding sound of metal tearing reached everyone's ears.
"Successful?" Barret and others looked back at the Mako Reactor and saw that the Mako Reactor was collapsing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The Mako Reactor itself is a huge steel building. After its internal support was destroyed, it instantly lost its balance. Its own weight became the biggest help in destroying the Mako Reactor.
Moreover, because there was no assistance from Shinra Company and no Mako liquid was directly detonated in the core area, naturally there was no larger explosion. Instead, it seemed somewhat "silent."
"Well done, Shen!"
Looking at the collapsed Mako Reactor, Barret couldn't help but roar. After his long-cherished wish came true at this moment, his eyes were filled with tears of excitement.
"Oh yeah!"
The rest of the team also cheered along with Barret, except for Cloud, who didn't react much. He just looked at the cheering Avalanche members indifferently.
…
On the street of District 8, Aerith looked at the collapsed Mako Reactor with surprise in her eyes.
"Sure enough...it has changed." Aerith folded her arms over her chest and muttered to herself.
In fact, ever since Shen Ye made an excuse to leave in the evening, she knew what he was going to do, so as soon as Shen Ye left the house, she arrived at round plate number eight.
Now that she saw that the Mako Reactor had only collapsed and not exploded, she felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted from her heart, and whispered, "There is no such thing as destiny. Everything can be changed."
Then, she turned and walked towards the station. Now that things were over, she wanted to go home and wait for Shen Ye to come back, and then make him a midnight snack to reward him.
Thinking of this, Aerith couldn't help but feel cheerful, her steps became lighter, and a smile appeared on her face that she hadn't seen for several days.
But before she had gone far, she saw a large number of Shinra soldiers appearing on the street.
This scene made her worried again. She immediately stopped and turned to run towards the Mako Reactor.
But this time she still didn't run far. She stopped again because she saw a person on the street.
ever!
"Aerith, if you want to go and watch the fun, you'd better give up the idea." Tseng said softly.
"Hmph!" Although Aerith didn't listen to Tseng's words, she knew that with him around, there was no way she could get through. After snorting coldly, she turned around with a resentful expression on her face.
