Netherworld Retrograde

Capítulo 1075: Chapter 522: Delighted Bai Ya (Part 2)

In coordination with the Imitative Heavenly Soldiers… even without the presence of Spiritual Ability Users, the Human Army can effectively deal damage to the enemies of humankind. This will greatly aid in the subsequent attack on Black Origin City.

“I plan to conduct more trades with Hong Tao in the future. I aim to establish a long-term agreement.”

This is also one of the advantages of the Ark Chosen Ones, as they can obtain specialties from around the world through material exchanges.

The specialty of No.3 Border City is the ‘Imitative Heavenly Soldiers’, while the specialty of the area where Hong Tao is located is the Sealing Thunder Mine Crystals.

As for Chu He’s specialty, it is the vast quantity of Extraordinary Creatures and Spirit Plants.

Not to mention, the different Magic Potion Recipes each one possesses.

Under such various exchanges, the strength of the Ark Chosen Ones will continuously grow.

“And then there’s…” Yin Fire paused, “the method the Book Holder mentioned to eliminate the Champion. You, as the variable, your actions should be unpredictable to him. Why is he still so confident?”

“That’s what puzzles me as well… Are there measures specifically against the Champion?” Li Yelai pondered.

Then, Li Yelai switched back to their black trench coat and put on the communicator.

After bidding farewell to the nun, they prepared to leave the secure house with Yin Fire, needing to return to the East City Branch through the underground Net Road.

However, Ye Boshou, who was patrolling outside, approached quickly with a look of urgency.

This caused both Li Yelai and Yin Fire’s expressions to change, as the undercover ark plan was also top secret, both of their communicators had been shut off for safety.

Within the safe house, there was only one direct communication system to the headquarters.

At this moment, alarms were also being emitted from this communication system.

“Captain, wolf smoke!”

This left Li Yelai and Yin Fire astonished. Wolf smoke?

Their gaze was quickly attracted to the fireworks brightening the sky and the trails of wolf smoke.

From the southwest direction, the wolf smoke twisted and rose like blood-red serpents, signifying the approach of war!

This was a warning of war from different Giant City Circles to other Giant City Circles, in the event of a communication breakdown!

Along the way, countless Ye Boshous and official caravans ignited fireworks and wolf smoke to alert the Giant City.

Simultaneously, within the Void Realm, a Human King laughed angrily, “Abyss King! You insane bastard!”

His voice echoed through the Void Realm, even separating thousands of kilometers, Li Yelai heard it crystal clear.

Abyss King? King of the Demon Abyss Mountain’s Restricted Zone?

Is it truly Demon Abyss Mountain? Under these circumstances, still daring to make a move on the Giant City?

Isn’t that sheer madness?

Li Yelai and Yin Fire immediately returned to the safe house, connecting to the direct line to headquarters.

“Demon Abyss Mountain has launched an attack on Ba Shu Mountain City!”

“Ba Shu Mountain City has ignited wolf smoke!”

“Shu Chuan Giant City and River Giant City have consecutively ignited wolf smoke!”

Li Yelai and Yin Fire exchanged glances; despite having suspicions, now they both felt astonished that war had nonetheless arrived.

The Restricted Zone and Giant City had constantly maintained low-intensity warfare since both sides wanted to avoid escalation.

The Human Giant Cities needed to develop and consolidate power, whereas the Restricted Zone did not want to be caught outside the limelight.

Now, this peace had been shattered.

Demon Abyss Mountain had brazenly launched a war when Ba Shu Mountain City was at its strongest!

“If Ba Shu Mountain City encounters an attack, the various Heavenly Pride gathered at Ten Thousand Dragon Lake will inevitably assist. The battle will quickly escalate, potentially drawing in other Restricted Zones and Giant Cities, what exactly is Demon Abyss Mountain thinking?”

Li Yelai and Yin Fire urgently rushed into the underground network.

They needed to return quickly to the East City Branch to prepare forces for aiding Ba Shu Mountain City.

This was not only a war between a Giant City and the Restricted Zone.

Both sides had reinforcements.

Though the Restricted Zones were rivals amongst themselves, they were aware of their shared vulnerability. The war would only intensify!

The Human side, due to Ten Thousand Dragon Lake’s presence, would also provide as much assistance as possible.

In any case, Demon Abyss Mountain, being the initial aggressor, wouldn’t gain anything favorable. What are they after?

In the underground Net Road, Li Yelai moved with incredible speed, with Yin Fire shouting behind him: “You’re faster, return to the branch first!”

Li Yelai hesitated and said, “No, Captain Yang Chen is also in the branch, Champion Team One is under his command. I’m heading to… ‘their’ place first!”

“Them?” Yin Fire was startled, then realized: “Alright!”

Quickly, the two separated in the underground network, Yin Fire headed straight to the branch, while Li Yelai rushed to a concealed exit.

At the same time, he swapped his black trench coat for a windbreaker.

“So, your Divine Chosen has returned!”

….

Elsewhere, in the southeastern region of the Old City District, within a factory area.

Bai Ya and Yu Mian stood by the window, watching the distant tall walls and the blood-red fireworks twisting in the sky.

This spectacle might appear insignificant to ordinary people.

But to Spiritual Ability Users, it was as bright as the sun.

“That direction, it’s indeed Demon Abyss Mountain. I seem to sense countless slaughter and bloodshed… it genuinely intrigues me.” Yu Mian wore a gas mask, and beneath it was a stiff human skin mask.

At this moment, the expression on the human skin mask was exceedingly bizarre.

“Indeed, war…” Bai Ya gazed at the wolf smoke, entranced, as a Spiritual Ability User raised in the Blood God Faction from a young age, the indoctrination had long since etched slaughter and warfare into her bones. It’s a common affliction of the Blood God Faction’s education.

“But for now, it’s unrelated to us. We should continue waiting for Lord Di Yun’s orders.”

At that moment, the gaze of Bai Ya and Yu Mian shifted, as a rotund believer hurriedly approached, kneeling before them: “Master…”

“What’s going on, rushing around so frantically?” Bai Ya’s delicate face full of cold disdain: “Are you eager for the Giant City to discover us?”

As a Chaotic Force, although possessing powerful corruptive abilities to develop quietly within the Giant City.

They were nominally still employees of a processing factory.

Unless there was vital intelligence, entering the secret chamber to tear off disguises was forbidden.

This ‘factory manager’, kneeling to ’employees’ out in the open during broad daylight, if caught by the Giant City’s people, wouldn’t that expose them?

Yu Mian’s eyes also showed a flicker of cold light: “What happened?”

Thinking internally, this kind of useless person should be dealt with.

The believer trembled: “Someone is visiting, and they’ve opened our secret door using the code… also specifically asking for you two masters…”

Bai Ya frowned, at this time, someone came to find them? People from another sub-branch? This was too risky.

A code should be prepared in advance, and they should meet in a secure area. Could it be a trap? Has the official found something?

In that instant, the thoughts of the two Demon Generals surged rapidly. They looked vigilantly around. If the official indeed discovered something, then clearly a force would have already closed in, perhaps laying in ambush around.

They must protect Lord Di Yun’s identity at all costs, even if it means death, this must never be known to the officials!

In that instant, the two had the thought of killing to silence witnesses.

Then, they heard the believer’s trembling voice: “He said he is Di Yun.”

As the voice fell, the believer saw a blur before his eyes, and the two figures had already disappeared.

Bai Ya moved with extreme speed, had she not been concerned about getting bloodstains or filth on herself, she might have barreled through walls or anyone blocking her path.

When she arrived at the factory’s underground secret chamber at her fastest speed, she saw the figure she had long yearned for.

The young man stood among the kneeling high-ranking members of the church, dressed in a jet-black windbreaker.

That towering figure, that handsome face, made Bai Ya somewhat nervous.

She once secluded herself in her room, holding his garments, fantasizing repeatedly until she exhausted herself.

This was her deepest secret…

‘Should I not change into another attire? Offer the Master a feast of slaughter?’ Thoughts surged in her mind, yet her body swiftly moved forward, kneeling on one knee: “Bai Ya greets, Lord Di Yun!”

“Rise, no need for such formalities between us.”

Li Ye looked at Bai Ya, dressed in her work clothes, smiling as he said, “It’s been a while, Bai Ya.”

“My most loyal subordinate…”

“I have an important task for you.”
