Chapter 453: Human Centipede, Sea God and Sea King

Upon hearing Cheng Han's words, "It's not that I'm saying you're the mole," female mystic Lan Jiayao's mind was suddenly enlightened, and she blurted out, "Deputy General Xu's family may have a problem!"

The faint fragrance of the Seven Star Drunken Butterfly Flower was a key clue. Those who could come into contact with this flower were not only Xu Peng himself, but also his family members who lived with him.

Others immediately agreed, saying, "That makes sense!" and "Deputy General Xu's family is most likely involved!"

Jian Wanli also breathed a sigh of relief and decisively gave an order, "Immediately seal off Deputy General Xu's residence and prohibit anyone from entering or leaving!"

As the commander of the war zone, he sincerely did not want to see the deputy general become a mole, because that would mean he himself would be implicated.

A mystic immediately responded, "Yes!"

Xu Peng, on the other hand, remained silent.

But from his expression, it was clear that he had relaxed quite a bit.

Cheng Han spoke up, saying, "There's no time to waste! Let's go over there and take a look now!"

The past incidents, the near annihilation of the aircraft carrier fleet, the innocent civilians who were killed, and the outbreak of the plague within the fortress, it was time to settle the accounts!

Commander Jian Wanli was a decisive person and immediately waved his hand, saying, "Let's go!"

Before long, dozens of mystic boats swarmed into a huge passage and entered a towering fortress.

It was the East Ling Fortress.

This place was the location of the central courtyard in the war zone, as well as the concentrated residence of the families of the mystics and mystic masters.

In order to facilitate the observation of the situation and the command of the army, the central courtyard was set on the top floor of the fortress, while the family area was arranged in the largest area on the bottom floor.

Soon, Cheng Han saw a luxurious residence that was completely surrounded.

During the time of the Mystic Palace, all mystics had a large living hall, and the higher the rank of the mystic, the larger the scale of the palace.

However, in the war zone, due to environmental restrictions, even high-ranking mystic masters could only be allocated a five-story residence with an area of nearly one acre.

Even so, this condition was still much better than that of ordinary civilians.

One kilometer away, a flower lynx was squatting in a rooftop garden, quietly gazing at a luxurious residence in the distance.

In its big cat eyes, there was a dim blue light flickering.

This was a ghost lynx.

Its name was - Ali.

Due to some twisted sense of humor, Cheng Han had left all the ghosts in the Netherworld in the form of animals, none of them in human form.

Initially, Ali had visited all the fortresses in the war zone and conducted a detailed investigation of thousands of relevant clues, only to discover that the source actually came from that luxurious residence.

To be honest.

This result greatly surprised Cheng Han.

Who could have imagined that someone who lived in a secluded mansion and rarely interacted with the outside world would turn out to be the mole stirring up trouble in the Dongli war zone?

But looking at it from another perspective.

To infiltrate beside a deputy general, not drawing attention and conveniently obtaining various intelligence from the war zone, it truly was a brilliant move.

The cunning of the mastermind behind the scenes can be seen from this.

"Bang! Bang!"

Footsteps suddenly sounded.

Ah Li quickly took a few steps back at the fastest speed, hiding behind a low bush.

In an instant.

The color of Ah Li's fur changed, resembling the color of the bush.

Even if observed up close, it would be difficult to distinguish.

This is the unique ability of this fox cat - true mimicry.

Not just ordinary mimicry.

But possessing a hint of "truth" in its extraordinary ability, even an ordinary mystic master would not be able to see through the disguise.

In the past.

Ah Li would ride on a floating wooden boat, openly squatting at the bow, and others would still consider it as part of the boat.

It would wander around in various fortresses, walking on the walls, and passersby would consider it as part of the wall. When it walked to the street, pedestrians would see it as part of the road.

In short.

Ah Li was like an invisible ghost, appearing and disappearing in every corner of the war zone.

Although Cheng Han had not been in the war zone for long, with the help of this fox cat's ears and eyes, his understanding of the lower levels of the war zone far surpassed anyone in the courtyard.

A few seconds later.

Several figures quickly entered the garden.

This place was the most heavily guarded core area, and everyone living in this area were family members of the mystic masters.

They stood by the wall, looking at the commotion in the distance, whispering to each other.

"Why are there so many soldiers in red armor? What's happening over there?"

"Oh my god! That area is the core area of this residential district, it's probably the residence of the deputy general, right?"

"I'm afraid something big is about to happen!"

Ah Li listened to their conversation and gently wagged its furry tail.

One of the family members caught a glimpse of this scene from the corner of their eye, but they simply thought it was the swaying of the bush's branches.

Just like this household.

In the rooftop gardens of every nearby residence, many figures appeared, observing the significant commotion in the core area.

*

In front of the luxurious mansion.

A black-robed mystic master hurriedly approached, reporting with a serious expression, "Reporting to the master, there seems to be a faint smell of blood inside the residence."

Thousands of soldiers in red armor surrounded the mansion, but no one came out to investigate the situation. Even a fool could tell that something was not right.

And this point precisely confirms Cheng Han's previous words.

Xu Peng's face was extremely ugly, but he still didn't say anything.

After all, his own mansion had a major incident, and his suspicion had not been completely cleared, so he honestly remained silent.

Jian Wanli hesitated for a moment, turned his head to look at Cheng Han, and actively sought his opinion: "Commander Cheng, do we need to forcefully attack the residence?"

Onlookers watched this scene, all showing surprise.

As the commander of the army, he actually asked such a question, faintly implying a sense of seeking approval, which really made people take notice.

Cheng Han pondered for a moment and shook his head: "The mastermind behind the scenes knows that we have come, and it does not intend to fight us."

He paused and revealed the deduction result: "What is hidden here is just a trace of a soul, and its combat power is not strong."

This is actually not surprising.

The enemy is an excellent mastermind behind the scenes, so of course it had already prepared an escape route.

Jian Wanli decisively said: "Then let's go in and meet the other party."

Cheng Han nodded: "Okay!"

He glanced at Vice Commander Xu with goodwill and reminded him: "The situation inside the house should be very grim. Vice Commander can stay outside."

The scene deduced just now had an unusually strong impact.

Even though he had seen many disgusting scenes, he couldn't help but feel a bit nauseous.

Xu Peng had a calm face and said in a low voice, "My family is inside, I must go in and take a look."

As the Vice Commander, if he didn't even dare to enter his own house, how could he hold his head up in the future?

Jian Wanli looked back at his subordinates and instructed, "The rest of you don't need to come."

The purpose of doing this was naturally to save some face for the Vice Commander, otherwise if the horrifying scene inside the house spread, the Vice Commander's reputation would not look good.

The commander took the lead and kicked the front door directly.

"Boom!"

A loud noise.

The two exquisitely carved doors were instantly shattered, and a large number of fragments flew towards various corners of the front yard.

Xu Peng's face twitched.

Where did he not know that the commander deliberately made such a rough action, besides venting his emotions, there was also a warning.

As the Vice Commander, how could you not even know when something so big happened to the people around you? What the hell are you doing?

The others had already sensed that something was not right, and none of them dared to speak, the scene was extremely quiet.

The three of them entered one after another and disappeared from everyone's sight.

After a few seconds.

Siman Nanshan lowered his voice and asked a question, "Vice Commander Lan, is the core area also prone to problems? Is the East Li War Zone so dangerous?"

Lan Jiayao thought for a moment and replied, "Master Siman, it's not as bad as you think here. As far as I know, this is the first time such a thing has happened since the establishment of the East Li War Zone."

The female master added with a strange expression, "It's just that Commander Cheng's ability to discover problems is too strong, which makes it easy for people to form this illusion."

Siman Nanshan's face involuntarily twitched, "That's true."

This former master of the Heavenly Luck Hall recalled the series of major events that had recently occurred in the Xuan Palace, and deep down, he agreed with this.

It is clear that only a small number of craftsmen and apprentices who do not follow the rules are causing the factory's inefficiency. As long as they are severely punished, it will be fine.

Unfortunately, Vice Palace Master Cheng intervened forcefully and turned it into a major event that shook the entire Xuan Palace, even alarming the God General Lan Yun.

This astonishing ability to cause trouble is truly amazing!

*

Inside the mansion.

In the luxurious bath on the second floor.

The three of them witnessed a scene that made their scalps tingle.

They saw sections of naked bodies with blood-red flesh worms drilling out of their surfaces, integrating and connecting with each other to form a human centipede over twenty meters long.

And the "materials" that make up this monster are undoubtedly the women of the deputy general and the servants in the residence.

This disgusting giant centipede extended hundreds of hands and feet, clinging to the walls of the bathroom, and dozens of heads looked down from above.

A large amount of blood flowed down from the centipede, dyeing more than half of the walls red and turning the bath into a horrifying blood pool.

"You finally came!"

Dozens of mouths simultaneously spoke.

This way of speaking sounded strange and gave people a creepy feeling.

Cheng Han's throat moved, and he felt nauseous again.

Jian Wanli lowered his eyelids and clenched his fists tightly.

Xu Peng glanced at it and his body trembled, angrily shouting, "You monster!"

The human centipede ignored him, and dozens of heads spoke, "You actually discovered me, I'm surprised."

Dozens of pairs of eyes looked at Cheng Han together, "You are Commander Cheng, right? You arrived in the war zone today and came to our door. It seems that you are more formidable than I expected!"

Cheng Han didn't speak, nor did he want to speak.

The human centipede suddenly sighed, "A few months ago, when you discovered the high-efficiency fuel, I should have asked the 'Sea Gods' to kill you at all costs!"

The so-called "Sea Gods" refer to sea monsters whose strength has reached the level of gods.

The monster's tone was filled with strong regret, "Unfortunately, you ran too fast. Now Wan Hao's people are invading this realm on a large scale, and everything is too late."

Cheng Han was stunned for a moment, and a trace of fear surged in his heart.

When he discovered that the mastermind was targeting him, he decisively used the pretext of experimentation to return to the Void Wind Realm as quickly as possible.

Now it seems that this was an extremely wise decision.

Jian Wanli furrowed his brows tightly and tentatively asked, "Are you the Sea King under a certain Sea God?"

The human centipede did not hide it, "That's right! I am the Sea King Momo. The East Li War Zone used to be the area I ruled."

With the large-scale invasion of the Wan Hao Clan into this world and the ongoing war between the two realms, many things about this world have been figured out.

One of them is that each Sea God controls a large territory and commands many Sea Kings.

The strength of a Sea King is roughly equivalent to that of a Xuan Supervisor powerhouse of the Wan Hao Clan.

The difference is that the bodies of sea monsters are usually astonishingly huge, and their naturally accumulated extraordinary strength is even more powerful.

Therefore, the combat power of each Sea King is extremely strong, enough to deal with multiple Xuan Supervisor powerhouses joining forces.
