Chapter 273: Counterattack

Human thinking will have inertia.

People tend to follow their own successful paths and repeat certain plans over and over again.

This time, commanding pirates to suddenly attack the institute's cruise ship in safe waters is actually the same as when Balan was young, he broke into the home of his warlord boss and killed the warlord in what the warlord considered the safest place.

So after hearing the commentator's story about Balan's past, and when he heard Yang De preparing to rescue people, He Ao already had the expectation that Balan would make a surprise attack.

But in the final analysis, this behavior is still too risky. In such a short period of time, if the institute only needs to hold on for a little longer, the raid will fail, and Balan will probably die.

So no matter what angle you consider, the probability of Balan's surprise attack should be very, very small.

In fact, Yang De and the institute also considered the possibility of an accident, so when Yang De entrusted He Ao to be the acting captain, he emphasized to He Ao that there were risks involved and asked him to consider it carefully.

But from another perspective, it is precisely because everyone feels that the probability of Balan launching a surprise attack is very small, so this surprise attack can have an unexpected effect.

Only then can one be regarded as a ‘surprise soldier’.

From a tactical point of view, Balan's approach is actually reasonable and even a little surprising.

If he can successfully raid, he will probably become famous for a while.

But the premise for the success of this raid is that Balan has an absolute advantage over the power on the Institute's cruise ship and can capture the cruise ship in a very short time.

Those tough and life-threatening elite pirates could naturally use their lives to kill the injured supers from the institute on the cruise ship.

But in terms of top-level combat power, as long as the top-level combat power can temporarily contain him, his raid will inevitably fail. This is why he wants to lure Yang De away.

Yang De can even beat him to death.

But it was not enough to lure Yang De away. He also needed a source who knew exactly the combat power on the ship.

This is when another person comes into play.

He Ao raised his hand, and another laser cannon shot through the two helicopters in the sky.

The blazing flames were once again ignited in the rain.

The jet engines on his feet ejected bright tail flames, lifting He Otto up and floating in the air.

The fact that Balaam can appear here proves that he thinks he has an absolute advantage over He Ao.

He himself had no information on the ship. Theoretically, after seeing two Dawn C-class people boarding the ship and never coming back, Balan would not dare to launch an attack rashly, no matter how gambler he was.

After all, he didn't know what was going on on the ship.

Unless someone brought him specific information on the ship, and it was information about the top combat power.

He Ao raised his head, and the ultra-clear camera in his field of vision captured the two figures standing on the edge of the coal ship.

A lean man, wearing a white military uniform, stood barefoot on the deck. This was Balan, whose photo Yang De had shown He Ao before he left.

The other one was wearing loose, ill-fitting clothes, with a bandage soaked in rain still visible under the clothes.

Hu Wen.

Hu Wen was injured and jumped into the sea. He had to receive immediate treatment. At that time, there were mostly cargo ships nearby and they were far away from the pirate mothership. There were no adequate medical facilities at all. The probability of his death in the sea was extremely high.

But he jumped into the sea very resolutely. Besides gambling for his life, there was another possibility. He knew that there might be a ship nearby that could rescue him.

And anything that can be found wandering around is most likely a pirate ship.

And if Hu Wen is rescued by Balan, then Balan will get He Ao's 'real' strength

He Ao had fought against Hu Wen. Although there was only one short move, He Ao did not show most of his power.

But judging from how Hu Wen avoided Yang De and attacked He Ao later, Hu Wen probably thought he could defeat He Ao.

During the few minutes of chatting with Yang De, He Ao also asked about Balan's strength.

Yang De's reply is that Hu Wen and Balan are between equals, and Balan may be slightly stronger.

If events proceed in this direction, Balan's probability of launching an attack will be greatly increased.

In fact, He Ao was contrary to the judgment of Yang De and even the institute. He believed that Balan's attack was a high probability event.

Balaam is the kind of person who started from a humble beginning and climbed up step by step by gambling his life.

He Ao himself also lives at the bottom. At the same time, he also has the memories of Regit and Roy, and has met all kinds of people.

He can understand Balan's mentality very well. For such a person, it is normal to put his life on the gambling table in exchange for profits.

In fact, those pirates who risked their lives by taking illegal drugs had similar ideas.

So He Ao knew that if Balan really rescued Hu Wen and got information from Hu Wen, then he would have a high possibility of attacking the cruise ship, and he would attack in the safest place.

However, although He Ao expected this high probability, he still accepted the task of acting captain.

The game arranged by Balan can be used as a stage for him to show part of his strength.

He Ao's current goal is to find the missing central processor in the tower, thereby finding information about the item related to super memory sealed under the tower, and to find the relationship between the ruins and the copy world.

To find the lost CPU, we have to find the person hiding in the dawn, who entered the tower ten years ago in the main world.

There is no way to find that person by yourself, so you need to rely on a huge intelligence network.

This requires the help of the institute's intelligence network.

But if you want to cooperate and borrow the strength of others, you must first show your own strength.

It is difficult to convince people to rely on the status of a specially appointed researcher.

So from the beginning, He Ao has been showing his strength.

And now, this battle is the final battle he is preparing for.

After quelling the pirates this time, the accumulated strength he has shown will probably give him a position where he can negotiate with the institute and be recruited by the institute at a large price. At that time, he will gain the greatest benefit.

The shining light once again exploded in the rain.

He Ao directly crossed the entire helicopter group.

One after another, helicopters fell from the sky in blazing flames, like fireworks that had lost their brilliance and dropped.

Flashing thunder lit up the sky.

boom--

That was the sound of the silver and black mecha landing on the deck.

He Ao raised his head and stared at Balan and Hu Wen in front of him.

At the same time, the other party's eyes also fell on He Ao.

At this moment, Balan finally realized that he had been tricked by his teammates. He Ao's strength far exceeded his expectations.

But this is no longer the time to retreat.

Win or die, only in this moment.

Almost at the same time, Balan and Hu Wen disappeared at the same time and appeared on both sides of He Ao.
