Chapter 1700: Only One Chance

The two Ghost Assassins stepped forward.

Although Lu Siya had been bound with the single-molecule nano silk, they were still on full alert as if they were facing a great enemy.

The sniper who was hiding in the darkness held his breath. He pressed the trigger with his finger and locked onto Lu Siya’s vital points.

The two Ghost Assassins took out a pair of shackles made of Apocalyptic Beast bones and put them on Lu Siya.

With a cracking sound, a string of bone thorns extended from the shackles and pierced deep into Lu Siya’s spine. It was as if a scorpion carved out of white bones had latched onto her body, causing her to groan in pain again.

!!
The Ghost Assassins finally let out a long sigh of relief.

Another Ghost Assassin then walked toward the two innocent Reapers.

Only then did the mother and daughter react. They turned around and tried to escape, but the Ghost Assassin touched their faces lightly, and they immediately fell limp.

By now, Meng Chao had already adjusted his attack to the most perfect angle.

He was certain that he could defeat most of the assassins below in three seconds and save Lu Siya as well as the two innocent people.

Moreover, Meng Chao heard a commotion coming from the Monster Market behind him.

Apparently, the explosion caused by the sniper rifle and the collapse of the warehouse’s wall had attracted some people’s attention.

The spatial barrier had not completely collapsed, so the sound that leaked out was very weak.

Despite that, there were many superhumans in the Monster Market, and superhumans had always been the most sensitive to the sound of gunfire and explosions.

Meng Chao believed that as long as he could hold the Ghost Assassins back for a minute… no, half a minute, the superhumans that surged out from the Monster Market would surround this piece of broken wall and make it impenetrable. Not a single suspicious person would be able to escape.

However, Meng Chao was not confident about capturing the Ghost Assassins alive.

After all, the bodies of the Blood Alliance members were implanted with highly sensitive explosives. Not only were they controlled by their own thoughts, but they could also be remotely detonated. In an instant, their entire bodies would turn from the inside out and burn into dazzling fireballs. Not even half of their cells would be left behind.

Even if he caught them alive, would he be able to follow the clues and find the mastermind?

Meng Chao did not think so.

If the Blood Alliance’s leader was truly the president of Thundercloud Technology and the Deity Realm expert, Yun Feidian, it would be extraordinarily difficult to accuse him.

Take note that almost all the older-generation Deity Realm warriors in Dragon City had been severely injured in the fierce battle with the monster mastermind. They had retired or even died.

Yun Feidian, who was in his prime, had already become a mainstay in Dragon City.

Thundercloud Technology, which was under his name, dominated the fields of gene modulation, neural technology, runic machinery, and biochemical beast manufacturing, which were of great strategic significance.

Meng Chao had seen a billboard advertising Thundercloud Technology.

Among a few biochemical beasts that had been implanted with powerful thermal weapons and had their brain nerves connected to control chips, there was a glittering and burning slogan that represented Thundercloud Technology’s corporate spirit.

“Shaping the future of Dragon City!”

In a sense, Meng Chao felt that this slogan was not an exaggeration.

To overthrow such a high-ranking and influential figure who was still on the rise just on the testimonies of a few Ghost Assassins was simply a pipe dream.

If he rashly launched an attack on Yun Feidian without conclusive and irrefutable evidence, it would only alert the enemy and make them raise their vigilance in time. They would come up with a hundred ways to explain themselves, and in the end, they would be able to escape unscathed.

Besides, what if he could not sever Yun Feidian’s throat with a single sword and ended up giving him space to move around instead? What if that inhumane fellow tried to drag the entire Dragon City with him while he was on the verge of death?

Meng Chao’s goal was to deal with the Blood Alliance at the least cost.

Then, he would integrate Dragon City’s interests, thoughts, and routes.

If Dragon City was thrown into chaos, and its vitality was greatly damaged in order to eradicate the Blood Alliance, how would it deal with the war between the worlds, which would inevitably take place in the next few years?

‘Calm down. Calm down.

‘We only have one chance. We need to find the Blood Alliance’s headquarters.

‘Only by capturing Yun Feidian himself in the Blood Alliance’s lair can we give him no room to struggle!’

With that thought in mind, Meng Chao dug his ten fingers deep into the reinforced concrete wall. The two pieces of concrete in his hands were crushed into fine sand.

The Ghost Assassins also realized that the place was no longer safe.

They could already hear the sound of hurried footsteps from the Monster Market.

The commander made a hand gesture, and the group retreated like ghosts. Soon, they scattered and disappeared into the depths of the poor streets and alleys.

Of course, they could not escape Meng Chao’s sharp eyes.

Meng Chao’s gaze was akin to an invisible blade, instantly piercing through the high walls that separated the poor streets and alleys. He could see or sense the beating hearts and the crystal engines that were being activated.

It went without saying that he paid the most attention to Lu Siya’s heart.

Soon, the Ghost Assassins, who had changed their appearance, were wearing sealed protective clothing and beast skin overalls. They were driving rusted minivans and vans, disguising themselves as workers from the Monster Market and the waste materials processing factory. Leaving the street where the fierce battle had just taken place, they drove into the busy main road from all directions.

However, many superhumans had been drawn to the gunshots and explosions. At this time, they arrived in the depths of the poor street, which was still emitting green smoke.

“What’s going on?”

“A fierce battle just happened here!”

“This is such a huge crater, and these are marks left by heavy anti-material sniper bullets!”

“There are also these knife marks that have been left in the wood. The guy who made these slashes must have at least the strength of a Five-star Heaven Realm warrior!”

“I also smell the scent of the Blood Flower. D*mn it, how could there be an undead creature in Dragon City’s downtown area?”

Almost all the people who usually purchased cultivation resources in the Monster Market were low-level and middle-level superhumans from humble families.

Most of the low-level and middle-level superhumans from humble families had experience fighting monsters in the wilderness.

Therefore, they could tell what had happened here at a glance.

The expressions of the Azure Alliance members who followed behind changed drastically.

“This is not good. Alliance Leader Lu was fighting with someone here just now!”

“This is a trap, a trap targeted at her!”

“We’ve fallen into a trap. There’s no clue about The Bright Light’s explosion. This was just a trick to lure Alliance Leader Lu out!”

Meng Chao heard the furious roars of the Azure Alliance members.

Only now did he understand why Lu Siya had made such a series of illogical actions.

It was likely that the Blood Alliance’s assassins had disguised themselves as people who knew about The Bright Light’s explosion and had used the clues as bait. They then gave the excuse of worrying about their own safety to lure Lu Siya there alone.
