Bait
It was still the Forget-Worry Star, still the dead of night. Queen's Will Projection slowly opened her eyes. She had already received the information from the original body provided by Sen Na. She turned her head and glanced at Medea. "Let's go!"
"Where to?" Medea was taken aback.
"My true self has spoken with your father. The Black Alert has been sounded at Congress. The Gu Ding Team has already taken Elizabeth away from this planet. I remember you said that there was still one member of the Gu Ding Team on this planet, right? The one who told you that Elizabeth would automatically return in two or three hours," Queen asked expressionlessly.
"Yes, but he must be wearing a mask. Who knows where he's hiding now? If he changes his face and clothes, nobody will be able to find him." Medea knew that after the last battle, the guy who used the throwing knives must have changed his Disguise Mask and clothes. This Forget-Worry Star- Me-Not, has billions of inhabitants; finding him would be like finding a needle in a haystack.
"He provided you with the information, so you must have caught him then, right? Why did you let him go?" Queen asked, somewhat puzzled.
"I couldn't catch him..." Medea shook her head helplessly and recounted the course of their battle.
After listening, Queen shook his head and laughed, "I didn't expect you, who seem so shrewd, to be fooled by a little kid. I knew from what you said that the kid had no ability to launch a second attack. Saying he was afraid of causing trouble is complete nonsense. They dared to kidnap the king, what other trouble could they not be afraid of? Put yourself in that kid's shoes, would you have let the opportunity to kill the enemy pass by? Besides, the enemy would definitely have informed us immediately."
Medea only realized what Queen meant after hearing his words. If she were Dokter, she would definitely have chosen to kill her opponent outright and destroy the evidence to prevent the enemy from reporting back. She wouldn't have considered the consequences of killing him. The other party chose to negotiate with her, and although his reasons seemed reasonable at the time, now that she thought about it carefully, he probably didn't have the strength to launch a second attack.
"You said he's a telekinetic master, and that he can control demigod objects to harm you, which means his soul strength is at least around the Demigod Realm. That shouldn't be hard to find." Queen said, closing her eyes again. Her perception instantly covered the entire planet, finding eight powerful individuals with soul strength around the Demigod Realm. She grabbed Medea's wrist. "Come with me!"
Queen's speed was terrifying; in almost an instant, she appeared on a main street hundreds of kilometers away. She reached out and stopped a passerby.
"Who are you?" The passerby was an ordinary-looking Middle-Aged Man who looked at the two women with a wary expression.
"Use your strongest move to attack me," Queen said coldly to the Middle-Aged Man.
"Are you out of your mind?" The Middle-Aged Man turned around and tried to leave, but the surroundings suddenly changed.
Queen pulled him directly into his domain, and Medea was pulled in as well.
"Lord Queen, his voice doesn't sound right." Medea felt this approach was too reckless.
"Appearance, hairstyle, clothes, shoes, even height can change, as can voice. The only way to accurately identify a person is through their fighting habits, which are very difficult to change. Therefore, we can only determine their true identity after they make a move." Queen, however, did not intend to give up. "You just watch from the side and pay attention to whether their fighting style and habitual movements are the same as that person's."
"I understand." Medea didn't even need to look to know that this person wasn't Dokter, but Queen insisted, and she couldn't stop him.
"What are you two crazy women doing?" Seeing that he had been pulled into the area, the Middle-Aged Man knew that he had no choice but to take action. He cursed as he attacked frantically.
His weapon was a large sword, and countless sword beams formed from his divine energy slammed towards the two women. But Queen simply pointed a finger, completely shattering the myriad sword shadows.
"Lord Queen, it's not him. Not only are the weapons different, but the fighting styles are also completely different," Medea hurriedly called out.
Queen showed no sign of stopping. He suddenly appeared in front of the man and struck him in the chest with a palm Palm Print. The man's body instantly shattered, then quickly reformed. The Middle-Aged Man man looked at Queen with a face full of fear.
"This slap is just a small lesson. Watch your mouth next time." After saying that, Queen immediately dispelled his domain, grabbed Medea, and chased after his second target.
Medea followed Queen, watching Queen challenge five people in succession, defeating each one in a single move. She couldn't help but marvel at Queen's strength. However, none of these five people had a fighting style similar to Dokter's, not even remotely.
"Hey, did you even look closely? On this planet, excluding you and me, there are only eight people whose soul strength has reached the level of a demigod, and one of them is a woman. We've already passed five, and you're still saying it's not him. You're not deliberately protecting that kid, are you?" Queen's gaze towards Medea suddenly became somewhat questioning.
"Those five people before really weren't..." Medea didn't know how to explain it either. "Let's move on to the next one. If none of the eight are it, then we'll have to think of other ways to identify them."
Queen grabbed Medea's wrist again, somewhat annoyed, and the two of them flashed to the entrance of a small inn.
The hotel owner looked to be a man in his thirties. When he saw Queen and Medea, he was somewhat dazed, and his mouth was practically watering.
But then he saw something even more astonishing: Queen pulled Medea into the air, flying all the way up to the third floor of the hotel. Queen's gaze fell through an open window onto a sleeping young man.
"Is the one you sensed that young man?" Medea pointed at Dokter.
"Logically speaking, someone whose soul strength has reached the Demigod Realm shouldn't be sleeping so soundly, unless their mental energy has been severely depleted." Queen thought this was promising. "It's very likely him!" Dokter, who was fast asleep on the ground, suddenly fell onto the hard ground. He immediately got up and sat on the ground, rubbed his eyes, and was stunned to see Queen and Medea.
He roughly guessed what had happened, but continued to feign ignorance, asking, "Where is this place? Who are you people?"
"Attack me with your strongest move!" Dokter was taken aback when he heard this from Queen.
"What?" Dokter scratched his ear, not understanding what the opposite meant.
"I told you to use your strongest attack on me. Is there anything you don't understand?" Queen remained icy.
"So there really are people who enjoy this kind of extreme stuff. I don't have that kind of fetish. Why don't you two do it yourselves? I'll just watch from the side." Dokter remained seated on the ground, not standing up. In fact, he already roughly knew the identity of this woman with the icy expression. She was probably the Will Projection of the god that Gu Ding had mentioned in the communicator. And judging from her appearance, the woman named Medea was somewhat afraid of her.
"What nonsense are you spouting? Are you looking for death?" Medea was also getting angry.
"You were the ones who came to me, what do you mean I'm talking nonsense? She was the one who told me to hit her, didn't you hear that?" Dokter continued to argue, then his gaze fell on the whip at Medea's waist. "Your whip is quite nice, and you carry it with you. Looks like you're a professional enthusiast."
"You're asking for death!" Medea was completely enraged. She grabbed the long whip at her waist and lashed it out. The whip's shadow resembled a venomous snake opening its mouth to bite Dokter.
Dokter used his backhand to brace himself and dodge the attack.
"I'll teach you to dodge!" Medea lashed out with her second and third whips.
Dokter's mental energy was exhausted, rendering him unable to retaliate. In fact, even if he could, with the Will Projection present, he wouldn't dare to fight back. The fact that the two women didn't attack immediately indicated that they weren't entirely sure of his identity. And if he were to make a move, he would truly expose himself.
But to his surprise, a reflection in his sleeve caught Queen's attention. In the midst of their chase, Queen suddenly appeared beside Dokter, grabbed his right hand, and reached into his sleeve with the other, pulling out a scalpel.
"It really is you!" Medea initially thought the voice sounded somewhat similar, but upon seeing the demigod-like scalpel, she immediately confirmed the other party's identity.
Upon hearing Medea confirm the other's identity, Queen's expression turned cold. A surge of divine energy flowed from the five fingers that were gripping the other's right hand into the other's body, instantly immobilizing Dokter. Then, she produced a pair of Magic Restricting Handcuffs and cuffed Dokter's hands.
Dokter's Mind Power and the physical strength throughout his body were instantly sealed by the Magic Restricting Handcuffs, turning him into an ordinary person.
"You brat, you've finally fallen into my hands!" Medea sneered as she pinched Dokter's chin, then reached out to remove his Disguise Mask, only to find that he wasn't wearing a mask at all.
"Auntie, this is your real face, not a mask," Dokter added sarcastically.
"How dare you call me 'auntie'? Are you looking for death?" Medea was furious.
"I just turned sixteen this year. If I don't call you auntie, what should I call you? Granny?" Dokter continued to use his taunting skills.
"You clearly look like you're in your early twenties, yet you're pretending to be young?!" Medea shifted the topic to Dokter's age.
"I really am only sixteen. If you don't believe me, check my file yourselves," Dokter said with a completely innocent look.
Medea, with a skeptical attitude, quickly checked Dokter's file, which indeed showed him as sixteen years old, leaving her speechless. "According to federal law, anyone over sixteen is an adult. As a member of the Gu Ding Team, you assisted in the kidnapping of the Fei Mei Universe Country Lord, which is a serious crime. We will send you to the Federal Court as soon as possible so that you can receive the punishment you deserve. Even if you were just an accomplice, your actions are enough to warrant a sentence of more than eight hundred years in prison."
Queen, who was standing nearby, heard this but shook his head with a smile and said, "No, your father has already submitted an application to the Federal Government. All members of the Gu Ding Team, once caught, will be sentenced to death. The Federal Court is just going through the motions. Besides, he's a good bait. As long as we send out the news of his death sentence, the Gu Ding Team will definitely show up. Then we can wipe them all out!" (To be continued.)
