My Space-Time System

After dinner, the trio gathered in Blake's room where they began planning their raid with the help of the system.

"First, let's take a look at the layout and location of their hideout." Blake clicked on the communication amulet and a holographic projection of a map of the slums appeared.

It showed the black scorpion gang's area of operation which encompassed more than 20 blocks. Their hideout was marked with a red dot.

"In the sewers, interesting…" Blake clicked on the red dot and the holographic projection displayed the underground network of the sewers.

It displayed the entrance to the hideout to be a wall but according to the info attached to it, the entrance was a sliding stone door with an illusion and alarm arrays on it. Also, they were protected by 2 guards at all times.

"This will be troublesome. We need to get into the hideout without alerting everyone." Blake said as he looked at the power connection of the sewers.

The map was so detailed to the point it even displayed the power connections of the sewers.

"Seems they were smart enough to not use the same power connections as the sewers. If not this would have been an easy job." Blake said when he noticed the power line didn't enter the hideout.

If the power line was connected, Blake would have been able to draw them out to fix the problem and that would have been his ticket to entering.

"The walls are protected by arrays, so manipulating it is not an option." Brain said.

"I don't think we can infiltrate the hideout without any direct confrontation. I think what we should be looking at is reducing the commotion to the barest minimum." Castiel suggested.

[I don't think there is a need to be stealthy, your goal is to kill everything in the hideout. Once Blake gains access into the hideout he would have to shut down their arrays and defenses. That alone would draw their attention.] The system pointed out.

"You are right, but we still need some time to position ourselves. It is way better than getting swarmed by them from the moment we get in." Blake said.

Once that was settled they began looking into the strength of the over 70 gang members. The gang leader was at the peak of the champion realm and he had 2 bodyguards who were roughly on the same level as them.

As for the normal gang members, over 30 were at the early stages of the champion realm while the rest were at the warrior level. Blake had no idea if the group they had defeated were among the 73, but he thought they weren't too much of a problem.

After an hour the team was done with planning. They had decided that Blake and Castiel were to deal with purging the hideout while Brian was to stay at the entrance just in case backup arrived.

"Time to get supplies." Blake moved to the exchange store to purchase mana disruptors.

Instead of wasting time and leaving himself vulnerable by disabling the arrays, the mana disruptors acted like an E.M.P. that would spread from any point of an array to the core and then to other arrays.

It was very effective for places like the hideout because the black scorpion was a low-level gang with poor array defense. If Blake was to use a hundred of the mana disruptors on the castle there wouldn't be a scratch.

"5000 exchange points for a piece. This better be good." Blake said as he purchased 5 pieces, totaling 25k.

When he returned to his room, Blake called up Susan to inform her that they would take action on their class-free day.

"I shall send the information to them. Also, they sent in extra info not too long ago." Susan quickly transferred the information to his communication amulet before cutting off the communication link.

Blake opened the information for the rest to see. It turned out to be the schedule of the black scorpion gang.

"At this point, I have come to a conclusion that we almost made the mistake of gathering for information." Blake said.

He had been thinking it will take them at least a week to gather the info they needed, but now he was thinking they wouldn't be able to do it at all.

They lacked connection so it wasn't possible for them to even find out about their hideout without alerting the gang. Not to talk of their number, strength, and even schedule.

[Yup, I really thought you were cocky when you gave that option.] The system said.

The info showed that the black scorpion gang had a major operation on the day they were to wipe them out. This meant the number they would face would be reduced.

Minutes later, Susan called back informing them that the Winchester family was okay with the day they had selected.

…

The rest of the week went by quickly and the day for the shakedown had arrived.

Blake and his team had agreed that they would strike by noon because by night most of the members would be scattered all around different locations of slums.

Their goal was to wipe out the gang so they needed to kill the leaders and as much as possible to make sure they couldn't rise again.

They had agreed beforehand that the price was 50k gold coins, so they had no need to meet up with Arnold again.

When the time was near, they boarded a carriage that stopped them not too far away from the brotherhood pub in the slums.

Stopping at the brotherhood pub would attract too much attention since they were kids and were dressed up in fine clothing. Stopping close to the sewer entrance wasn't even an option because gangs like these would have people around the vicinity monitoring the entrance.

That was why they decided to go through a farther sewer entrance and move towards the gang's hideout.
