Lin Yan's eyes flickered.
Before this, he had not been able to determine what the mastermind behind the scenes hoped to achieve by having these two monsters wreak havoc in the North District. Was the target within the North District, or outside it?
But judging by the Faceless Ape's current state, the Mental Master behind it was clearly controlling it to keep the three War Gods occupied. At the same time, the beast tide was diverting everyone's attention.
And here, the person most worthy of such a hidden organization's attention was undoubtedly Wen Xiuyong.
Not good!
Given the current situation, they had most likely already begun their operation.
Wen Xiuyong could be in danger at any moment!
Although his strength made him unsuited to getting involved in this matter, he had enough self-awareness. He had never acted recklessly, and a warrior getting caught up in a storm like this could very well be seeking death.
But...
He thought of that girl tugging at the corner of his clothes and asking softly, "Does it hurt a lot?"
This was her father.
If he backed down now, perhaps no one could blame him, but he would feel guilty for the rest of his life.
His gaze hardened.
Lin Yan quickly contacted Jia Yan. He and Chu Wei had escorted Wen Xiuyong away, so they should be together right now.
Jia Yan still did not know that he had escaped, and asked in surprise, "Lin Yan?"
"It's me. I'm fine. Is Professor Wen beside you?"
"He isn't. After Chu Wei and I escorted him to headquarters, we were assigned to clear out the monsters in the North District. What's wrong?"
Lin Yan hurriedly said, "I suspect these monsters are only bait. The mastermind's target is Professor Wen. We have to warn them immediately!"
