The Next One!

The next morning, Arthur and Zhang Yuanqing set off together.

Why is it still me?

"Because the organization is temporarily short-staffed, I'm sorry to trouble you to make another trip."

"Is Zhang Yuanqing not suitable?"

"Zhang Yuanqing's evolution is flawed; he can't see through the surface Mist World."

"Isn't that better? It's safer if you can't see it."

"If he can't see them, how can he determine which people belong to the sequence?"

The target this time is 030.

Information about 030 is still unknown, but Zhang Yuanqing's abilities have confirmed that 030 does exist.

And it's not just 030, there's also 031.

The location indicated by 031 is the Nine-Tailed Fox. The computer knows who 031 is, which is the Ten Heavenly Stems of the Nine-Tailed Fox.

He had hacked into the Nine-Tailed Fox's intelligence database multiple times, and each time the Nine-Tailed Fox was plotting to capture him, but each time he failed.

This allowed the computer to obtain a large amount of intelligence.

The intelligence, including that of gambler 029, was stolen by the computer from the Nine-Tailed Fox headquarters.

As for 030, the Nine-Tailed Fox is labeled as Liar Eater, but specific information about his/her abilities, age, and appearance is completely unknown.

The Nine-Tailed Fox's people have not yet found this person.

The computer couldn't be found even after a long search. If it weren't for 029's abilities, finding this person would have been really difficult.

Nine-Tailed Fox Headquarters.

Inside the O5 Council.

A group of people gathered together as projections, their true location unknown.

They were sitting around a round table, watching a video recording of the First World War in Hong Kong.

"010 has appeared."

"I'm afraid 009 is back too."

"The Exile Plan has been successfully implemented, so how did 009 return?"

Of everyone present, only Qin Leng knew the whole story, because the Exile Plan was proposed and implemented by him alone.

He claimed to possess a Containment Object that could banish people to Different Dimension Space, and that's how the plan began.

Everything was going smoothly until Chen Ye set his sights on that other world. He not only descended into the past and devoured that world, but also brought back the exiled 009.

"Is this fate..."

Qin Leng tilted his head, a hint of helplessness in his voice.

Having learned from the previous lesson, 009 will definitely be more cautious and careful this time, and may even take the initiative to guard against Qin Leng's abilities.

It's no longer possible for Qin Leng to use information asymmetry to launch a surprise attack as he did before.

009 will not easily show himself again until he is absolutely certain of success.

Whether he becomes a coward or hides for more than ten years, it is not good news for Qin Leng.

At this moment, he was almost one step away from the fourth rank.

No matter how hard he tried to suppress it, he couldn't control his body's absorption of energy. Qin Leng roughly calculated it.

He has a maximum of four years and seven months left before he ascends to heaven.

Ascending to the Inner World —or, to put it another way, ascension is being banished to the Inner World.

Everything in this world will have nothing to do with you anymore.

Fortunately, Qin Leng had already made preparations for his funeral.

Whether it's the Ten Heavenly Stems, the Twelve Earthly Branches, or other containment experts, special forces, or the O5 Council.

He has done all he could.

Even the Hand of the Serpent and the Chaos Splitter were suppressed by them and could not lift their heads.

Nine-Tailed Fox have spread all over the world and they maintain world order. As long as the Nine-Tailed Fox can maintain their current state after Qin Leng leaves, that will be enough.

As long as this peace can be maintained, it will be extended and sustained.

Liaodong region, Asia.

A black sedan sped up to the location of a shopping mall, and then Arthur and Zhang Yuanqing pushed open the door and walked out.

"Alright, we've arrived at the location. So, where is 030?"

Hearing Arthur's words, Zhang Yuanqing shrugged and said, "I don't know."

Arthur scratched his head. "Ugh... this is so annoying! Can't we just let the computer control that metal thing to come over here?"

"I hate having to look for people the most."

As the two walked out of the underground parking lot beneath the mall, a man inside the tollbooth caught their eye.

After the two left, he took out his walkie-talkie and whispered something.

"Chaos has arrived."

"There are two people in total. They are together. One of them is a stranger, and the other is a clown."

It was daytime, and a man in a black robe was sitting on the top of the building eating an apple.

A white mask was placed beside him, and the person eating the apple listened to the information from below without reacting.

"Lord Seth, what should we do?"

"Never mind."

"But it's a bit too ostentatious for them to just swagger into our territory like this. What if they attract the Nine-Tailed Fox..."

Meng Qing put the leftover apple aside; below the fourth rank, few monsters possess the ability to overpower everything.

Among the three tiers, only a handful can be considered top-tier in every aspect.

006 Meng Qing counts as one, Sequence 010 Arthur also counts as one.

The two had clashed once before, during the struggle for the Rabbit Talisman, when Meng Qing experienced Arthur's Absolute Trait firsthand.

The ability to cut down anything is dangerous.

"What I meant was, don't worry about it."

Chaos was almost wiped out by the Nine-Tailed Fox, so its sudden reappearance must have a reason.

Picking up the White Mask beside him and putting it on, Meng Qing flicked his wrist, invisible Silk Thread shimmering, and his figure vanished from the spot in an instant.

At the same time, on a bench inside the mall.

A man was playing a TV series on his phone, as if he were at home.

"Why is it that all the deaths in the Investiture of the Gods were caused by my Jie Sect disciples!"

"Since you cannot give me an explanation, today I will use this Immortal Slaying Sword Formation to demand an explanation from you!"

"All disciples of the Jie Sect, heed my command! Form the Myriad Immortal Sword Formation! At worst, we'll destroy this realm, refine the Earth, Wind, Water, Fire, and reopen it!"

As the TV series ended, the man couldn't help but look at his palms.

Just then, footsteps sounded from behind.

Arthur and Zhang Yuanqing walked over and sat down on the bench on the other side.

"Where can you find this? This shabby shopping mall is so big, you wouldn't even know where to start the bombing."

"I don't know."

Seeing Arthur's clown makeup, the man on the bench sat up abruptly. "Who are you looking for?"

"What does this have to do with you?"

"Indeed, I'm sorry to bother you."

The man lowered his head and started playing the next episode of the TV series.

At that moment, a strangely dressed man in a black robe walked over.

Um?

Upon seeing the man, Arthur instantly pulled out a small knife.

The man then turned a knife-like object wrapped in black cloth around his neck and sat down.

You look familiar.

Arthur looked at Meng Qing was already prepared to launch an attack.

Arthur's memory wasn't very good, but he vaguely remembered seeing this person before, though he couldn't recall exactly where.

However, his black robe and the tattoos on his wrists undoubtedly revealed his identity.

He is a member of the Hand of the Serpent.
