Enemy Intelligence

Transfer within 30 minutes?

Luo Jun frowned slightly. It seemed their situation wasn't good; they appeared to be being hunted by the Polluter... But given their numerical advantage, why were they in such a sorry state?

Could it be that the four remaining opponents are extremely skilled fighters?

There's no point in guessing; let's go and confirm with them.

Thinking of this, Luo Jun took out the Myriad Jun Hammer and started spinning it in his hand while holding the chain.

The Limit Shorts he used to cover up his ugliness in the Challenge Space, they were forcibly taken back into the Hundred Treasure Box after his return, and he was replaced with his previous ordinary clothes.

The location was about thirteen kilometers away from here as the crow flies. After finding the right direction, Luo Jun accelerated the Myriad Jun Hammer to its position, then suddenly released its weight, and with a huge explosion, he shot into the sky!

At that moment, inside an apartment building, five survivors had just put down their phones, looked at each other, and all showed expressions of relief.

"I didn't expect Ye to be back..." Chen Fei smoothed her long, fiery red hair. "This gives us a glimmer of hope for victory."

"What do you mean by a glimmer of hope!" Chu Xin exclaimed excitedly. "That's Ye! With him here, we're sure to win!"

This guy has become a complete fanatic of Luo Jun.

"We can't be too optimistic." Ling Xin glanced at Wan Zisheng beside her. "The other side currently has two Peak Level Combat Power..."

Before she could finish speaking, Wan Zisheng suddenly coughed violently. Judging from his pale face, he was clearly seriously injured.

"Here, drink another dose of medicine..." Zhuge Lan immediately took out a small bottle and handed it over. After Wan Zisheng took a sip, his complexion improved considerably.

"Dragon Pattern Qi, indeed domineering." Chen Fei looked at Wan Zisheng, his brows furrowed. "Even President Wan's Myriad Aspects Return to Origin couldn't withstand it..."

"It's because my cultivation is insufficient... If it were the Ancestor himself who used it, even ten Long Hui wouldn't be able to break through his defenses." Wan Zisheng shook his head. At this moment, he no longer had the calm and confident demeanor he had a few days ago.

"However, the most terrifying person on the other side isn't Long Hui..." At this point, Wan Zisheng's eyes narrowed slightly, recalling the battle of the past two days with lingering fear. "That other mysterious person gave me an even stronger sense of pressure than Long Hui..."

Mentioning this person, the others also showed troubled expressions.

"Such a powerful guy, how come the association didn't have any information about him before?" Chu Xin looked at the group of guys who all had some official backgrounds. "There's no way he was a newbie before the contamination and then cultivated into a top expert in another world, right?"

"That possibility cannot be ruled out," Ling Xin said. "According to the Wildlands Hunter Guild's records, the strongest Polluter in the Savage Wilderness was indeed just an unknown guy before. According to the files, before he was corrupted, he was just an Common-level Wildlands Hunter ..."

"But this guy is clearly not from the Savage Wilderness!" Chu Xin said. "Judging from his mannerisms, he seems more like someone from the [Paranormal] world..."

"Analyzing the source now is pointless." Zhuge Lan shook her head. "Once Ye arrives, we'll have another major asset. With Ye and Young Master joining forces, they should be able to contend with the two Peak. As for the remaining two..."

As she spoke, Zhuge Lan glanced at Ling Xin and Chen Fei: "The three of us should be able to handle this."

"Hey, hey..." Chu Xin said with a dissatisfaction, "You don't seem to have included me?"

Chen Fei glanced at him. "If you're so eager to go, you can lead the charge next time!"

"Uh..." Chu Xin paused for a moment, then shrank back, "There's no need for that. I'm fine with staying put, doing logistics for you guys..."

"I wonder when Ye will arrive." Zhuge Lan checked the time. "If he still appears where he disappeared before, that's quite far from here. Can he get there in thirty minutes...?"

"Whether he arrives or not, we still need to stick to the previous plan and move to a different location when the time comes." Wan Zisheng took a sip of water. "The other side has been searching for us, and they seem to have reconnaissance abilities. Staying in one place for too long might lead to them coming after us!"

"That woman!" Ling Xin gritted her teeth at the mention of this, the Demon-Breaking Golden Edge at her fingertips flickering uncertainly.

Zhuge Lan was standing nearby, looked on curiously and said, "I always had a feeling that you and that vixen had a grudge against each other a long time ago?"

Ling Xin snorted coldly, "No... I just hate all Polluter equally!"

Just as they finished speaking, a loud bang suddenly came from outside the window, shaking the apartment building slightly. The group was startled and immediately took out their magical artifacts, preparing for battle. They opened the window and looked out, only to find a large crater in the courtyard, with a masked man standing in the middle.

"That night? He's already arrived?" Zhuge Lan checked the time. "How long has it been?"

The explosion not only startled them, but also woke up other ordinary residents. The lights in the previously dark high-rise buildings were turned on, but strangely, almost no one opened their windows to yell or shout. Instead, the sounds of people packing up their belongings could be heard coming from inside the buildings.

In the past two days, various disasters have occurred one after another in the city, and the residents live in constant fear. At the slightest sign of trouble, their first reaction is no longer to watch the excitement, but to run away as quickly as possible.

Luo Jun looked around and quickly noticed the only house with an open window. He leaped into the air, flew upstairs, and went inside. He glanced at his surprised companions and said casually, "Long time no see."

"It really is you!" While the others were still in shock, Chu Xin was the first to jump out. "Haha, I knew you wouldn't be eliminated so easily! Even the Annihilation Process couldn't send you away. You truly are my idol, the pride of all of us Rogue Cultivator!"

Luo Jun glanced at the group, then his gaze settled on Wan Zisheng: "You guys don't look too good. Are the opponents very strong?"

"It's not a matter of strength." Zhuge Lan shook her head. "You know Long Hui, right? That guy somehow regained his Peak power! And there's also..."

"Wait!" Before Zhuge Lan could finish speaking, Luo Jun suddenly waved his hand. "Before exchanging information, does anyone have any extra points? Could you share some with me?"

"Points?" The group was taken aback, but then Luo Jun explained, "Although I returned to the mission using my treasure, my points have been cleared. If I lose even one point now, I'll be permanently removed from this mission."

Upon hearing this, the group immediately started pooling their resources, after all, they couldn't let their trusted friend, who had finally returned, get away!

However, everyone has been struggling these past few days, and their remaining points are limited. After dividing them up, they managed to scrape together 200 points for Luo Jun as a safety net. "That's all we have," Chen Fei sighed. "If we had more money, I wanted to return the 300 points I borrowed from you... but the situation is too dire right now. With the Source of Calamity appearing, there are casualties of thousands at a time. If we only have 100 points left, I'm afraid we won't even be able to get to the scene..."

"That sounds nice, arriving at the scene..." Chu Xin grumbled from the side, "Do they even dare to rush to the scene now? They'd just have to stay put like me, waiting for the experts on the other side to clear out the monsters, right?"

After Chu Xin finished speaking, the others glared at him, but then they all lowered their heads, their faces full of embarrassment.

Those who have managed to hold on until now are all proud and ambitious geniuses; this passive, lingering existence is truly frustrating.

"It's strange, though," Zhuge Lan said. "The other side definitely has more points than us right now. Logically speaking, if we just let the Source of Calamity appear and leave it alone, we'll be eliminated naturally before long. But they're always so eager to eliminate the monsters. I just can't figure it out."

"That's normal," Luo Jun said. "Since you've all been eliminated, the mission ends early, and you won't get any kills or points for the later Source of Calamity."

"You mean, the other side is keeping us alive to rack up points?" Chen Fei frowned. "That's risky... What if they don't kill us all by the end? Wouldn't that be troublesome?"

"There are risks, but it's worth the gamble." Wan Zisheng coughed lightly and looked at Luo Jun: "You figured out the reason so quickly. If you were in his shoes, you would have done the same, wouldn't you?"

Luo Jun smiled slightly and changed the subject, "Alright, now tell me about the situation of the four people on the other side."

After a brief introduction by several people, the remaining four members of the enemy team were: Long Hui, who had somehow recovered to his Peak condition; a beautiful woman from the Martial World, just like Long Hui; a master from the Paranormal; and a Peak Expert was also suspected to be from the Paranormal, but whom no one had seen before.

Ling Xin mentioned that she had seen the woman with Long Hui before, during her internship at [Martial World]. Her ability was to transform her body into red mist. Every time they met, she would not engage in prolonged combat, but would symbolically exchange a few moves before dissolving into mist and disappearing. Therefore, besides this ability, no one knew if she had any other skills. However, whenever they were discovered by the Polluter, this woman was always the first to appear, so it was speculated that she might also have reconnaissance abilities.

The ability to transform into red mist sounded familiar to Luo Jun. Based on Ling Xin's experiences and everyone's descriptions of her appearance, he could basically confirm that the woman was the Polluter had impersonated a bride in the Martial World and killed the Great Shaman — A Dai!

I didn't expect her to be on this mission too; I hadn't encountered her before.

Luo Jun's feelings towards this woman were quite complicated. From his standpoint, the Main World and the Polluter were irreconcilable enemies, and they should be killed as soon as possible. However, in his previous interactions with this woman, Luo Jun could sense that she was quite different from the evil and insane Polluter in the public's impression; in fact, one could say she was a very kind person.

Of course, due to their different stances, A Dai's kindness was mostly directed towards the original inhabitants of [Martial World], but Luo Jun still felt that someone who could go to such lengths to help a pitiful girl he didn't even know escape from danger couldn't be that bad at heart.

Unfortunately, this was a combat mission, a fight to the death, and Luo Jun had no room for mercy.

It's also worth mentioning that A Dai had no record of joining the Yuan Cultivation Society before her internship, although it's certain she came from the Martial World.

As for the expert from the [Paranormal] faction, the Yuan Cultivation Society does have records of him. His name is Liu Weiyou, and he is a subordinate of Reincarnation King Ran Lu, one of the Four Great Ghost Kings of the [Paranormal] faction. He is skilled in soul attacks and can also absorb spiritual bodies to strengthen himself.

Speaking of this Reincarnation King, like the Spirit King Zhuge Lang, she is also a Peak Expert. Legend has it that her abilities not only affect the soul, but can even affect destiny. She is the most mysterious and unpredictable of the Four Great Ghost Kings.

As for the Last One person, none of them had ever seen him before. Even Young Master, a member of the Yuan Cultivation Society with impeccable credentials, had never heard of such a person.

According to the descriptions of the group, she was a tall woman, taller than a basketball player, wearing an oversized dress and an exaggeratedly large sun hat, with a bright smile on her face. Ignoring her size, from a distance she looked like a gentle and refined young lady.

But once the fight begins, not a trace of gentleness can be seen in her. This woman possesses terrifying hand-to-hand combat skills and can also change the shape of her body, unleashing power that even Peak Level Martial Combat Faction would find difficult to withstand.

However, this woman didn't seem to have a strong fighting spirit. Every time, while everyone else was already engaged in a fierce battle, she would arrive late and leisurely enter the battlefield to begin reaping the rewards.

According to Wan Zisheng, if she had been even slightly more proactive, none of the five people present would be alive today. Even so, several experts from the Main World had already died at her hands...

After listening to the information provided by the others, Luo Jun narrowed his eyes. He noticed something amiss and asked:

"If the enemy had so many powerful experts, why are there only four people left dead?"

Indeed, according to their descriptions, the Polluter are far stronger than those on the Main World's side. Normally, there should be more of them remaining.

"We're also puzzled by this..." Zhuge Lan replied, "After you disappeared, we didn't have any conflict with the Polluter at first, but soon, the Polluter started losing members. At that time, there was no fighting between the two sides, nor was the Source of Calamity triggered. This loss of members was very strange, and we couldn't figure out what was going on. When they were reduced to only six people, the third Source of Calamity descended."

"At that time, we gathered our companions and rushed to the scene, while the uninfected people also arrived, and the first large-scale conflict broke out there."

"At the time, because we had a huge numerical advantage, we even wanted to wipe out the entire area along with the Source of Calamity of the Source of Calamity as soon as she appeared, and then began her massacre of us..."

Luo Jun frowned. "You mean, that woman first appeared when the Source of Calamity appeared?"

"That's right!" Chu Xin nodded, "From then on, it became a one-sided hunt for us by the Polluter ..."

Luo Jun stroked his chin. The bizarre casualties, the sudden appearance of the mysterious woman, and the scene he had witnessed at the Corpse King's place— Luo Jun felt as if he had grasped some clue...

"That's right!" Luo Jun's eyes lit up. "You said the number of Polluter had decreased to six, so what about the remaining two?"

"Those two people were killed by us in the battles of the next two days," Ling Xin replied. "One was killed by me, and the other died at the hands of Wan Zisheng."

"Who are they? Do you know them?" Luo Jun pressed.

"They're both notorious Polluter ..." Chen Fei replied, "One is Zhang Gui from the [Martial World], and the other is Du Wei from the [Paranormal]..."

Upon hearing her name, Luo Jun's pupils dilated slightly, and a guess formed in his mind...
