The Death List Novel - Chapter 264

Chapter 264 Witness

‘”Black Rat, when I was disassembling the screen, I found an abnormal hole under the control lever of the mecha …” Silver Sail rested for a while and frowned. “I suspect that it is the core of the mecha!”

“Yes, I saw it too. Someone must have taken it away!” The black mouse nodded cautiously. After a moment of hesitation, he asked, “Yin Fan, you are more thoughtful. You said that the person who took this thing …”

“It’s the other apostles, no doubt!” Yin Fan said with a grim face, “Look at this place, there’s also that mecha … Haha, this guy is really ruthless! If that little girl hadn’t been hiding in the mecha, there wouldn’t have been a single survivor … Eh, where’s that little thing? Why is it gone?”

Yin Fan’s face revealed a trace of surprise. The black mouse flashed in place and immediately appeared where Mina was just now.

“There’s no one nearby! She actually escaped from under our noses!” The black mouse widened its eyes and shouted in disbelief, “This is impossible!”

“This place is deathly lifeless. It’s a bit strange. Black Rat, I don’t want to stay any longer!” Yin Fan said with a livid expression.

“Well, let’s go somewhere else and see if we can meet the apostle who destroyed this place!” ‘”Silver Sail, that guy only took away the core of the mech and killed all the Atlantis here. What do you think this is for?” Said the black mouse with a hideous expression.

“Hmph, then there’s no need to ask. Kill and silence! That fellow could have removed some more dark gold parts, but now he only took away the most convenient core of the mecha and abandoned the entire mecha here. He should have obtained something more valuable!” “We must find him before dawn!” Yin Fan’s eyes flashed with a blazing light.

“The Dark Gold material we have removed is worth at least a hundred thousand broken crystals. I’m afraid the value of this mecha is no less than a million broken crystals. Is there anything more precious than it?” ‘”Yin Fan, do you think that fellow has found the half-plane coordinates of the Wheel of Heaven?” The black mouse’s face revealed a trace of greed.

“That’s possible! At the very least, it won’t be less than the value of a legendary item!” Silversail sneered, “Black Rat, look, these dead Atlanteans. Tell me, what did you think the first time you saw them?”

“What do I think after seeing them?” The black mouse frowned and thought for a moment before saying, “These people should be the survivors of the city. Even if they weren’t combatants in the past, now they have been fighting wild creatures for several years and can fly mecha … Silver Sail, you mean …”

“Yes, you’re right. The most valuable thing in this warehouse is not the Apostle Mech. Although it’s very precious, we don’t have much storage space, so we can’t take much materials with us!” Silversail’s eyes flashed, “The most valuable thing is these ant-like Atlantis natives.”

There are quite a few abandoned mecha and weapons in this fortress. All they lack is energy, but our apostles do not lack magic items. Many mages can even charge these mechas. Black Rat, think about it. If a few Atlantis pilots were to be used as shields and baits for us, our chances of winning against the other apostles would be high! ”

“But we can’t control so many Atlanteans. It’s good that an apostle can control five or six people!” ‘”Even if we split them up with those fellows outside, these survivors might not be willing to fight for us. This is equivalent to killing each other! They have lived together for so long …” Black Rat said in confusion.

“Hehe, Black Rat, I can’t believe I can hear such childish words from your mouth!” Yin Fan couldn’t help but shake his head and laugh, “Think about what we experienced in the mission world … Do you really believe that our companions, who are dependent on each other, won’t kill each other?”

The black mouse slowly put away its smile and fell silent expressionlessly.

Yin Fan glanced at him and sneered, “Most ordinary people are at a dead end and are willing to do anything. It’s good that they can live. How can they care so much? Our apostles are the best proof.”

‘”But … we apostles still have a hidden rule! We will try our best not to involve the intelligent races in the battle between the apostles …” The black mouse retorted softly. However, in his heart, he had already accepted Silver Sail’s words.

“That’s different, that’s the usual way to target a complete intelligent race civilization! But what kind of place was this? It was an urban war zone! After the battle began, this was the apostle’s battlefield. Not to mention Atlantis, a civilization that is fading away, even the urban management race that everyone usually supports is only tools and items that we can use as long as we dare to appear here. ”

Silversail sneered. “As long as it can increase the chances of winning the urban war, the apostles will not be so pedantic as to pity these Atlantis natives. They are good baits and shields. If they encounter unforbidden apostles, even their corpses will be desecrated. It is not a relief to die together like this.”

“I know what you’re saying is the truth, but why does it always make people feel so unhappy when it comes out of your mouth?” Black Rat looked at his companion in a bad mood.

“Hmph, that’s because you’re jealous of my intelligence!” Yin Fan’s gloomy face revealed a trace of satisfaction.

“Fuck off!” Black Rat picked up a charred piece of remains and threw it over. He scolded, “Do you want to search again? Perhaps you can find some uncooked food!”

“No need, it’s getting late. It’ll be dawn in another hour!” Yin Fan took a deep breath and stood up. “Let’s look for that apostle again. It’s best to find him before dawn. Otherwise, we’ll have to find a way to get out of here. There are estimated to be at least twenty people waiting for us outside!”

“Hehe, that’s still the old method. You be the bait, I’ll protect you!” The black mouse chuckled. Its short body slowly turned into nothingness, and it actually disappeared in front of Yin Fan.

“Hey, wait, isn’t it your turn to be the bait this time?” Seeing that the black mouse was no longer responding, Yin Fan could only stamp his feet on the spot and curse.

This was one of the fishing methods they had discussed. One was in the open and the other was in the dark, specifically to deal with the Lone Exerciser. Silver Sail was an a.s.sa.s.sin profession, and Black Rat was a thief profession. The two professions were similar, but there were subtle differences.

Silver Sail had the Silver Eye Technique, which allowed him to detect and attack, while the Black Rat’s Bandit Ability was inclined to conceal and sneak. Normally, the two of them would take turns as bait for fishing, but this time, the massacre here caused them to be greatly afraid of that ruthless apostle. Silver Sail, who possessed a reconnaissance eye skill, was obviously more confident in using it as bait.

However, they didn’t know that their actions had always been monitored by Qin Lun.

This was their misconception. In the eyes of Black Rat and Silversail, since the enemy had torched the entire warehouse and slaughtered all Atlanteans, they naturally wouldn’t stay where they were to prevent them from appearing.

In fact, when Black Rat and Silver Sail extinguished the fire and entered the warehouse, Qin Lun returned to his hiding place outside the warehouse and observed the two of them in secret. Only after Mina transformed into an apostle did he quietly leave and find an abandoned room to hide.

Qin Lun took out the carefully crafted “Treasure Map” from his backpack. The smooth surface of the steel wall reflected the youth’s slightly absent-minded expression.

“There are fluctuations in your emotions. Are you not going to push it to me this time?” A sinister smile appeared in the blurry reflection.

“Didn’t you say that this is my sin? I should bear it myself!” The smiling face quickly turned cold and indifferent as he spoke indifferently.

“Hey, why did you let that Atlantis girl go? We’ve all seen Amris hide her in the apostle mecha!” ‘”We all know that she has a transformation apostle’s item, so why didn’t we snatch it away? That little thing from the Lulu Clan at home needs this kind of item!” The vague face turned ferocious once again. “We all know that she has a transformation apostle’s item. Why didn’t we snatch it?”

“You know what I’m thinking. Why ask again!” Qin Lun muttered to himself expressionlessly.

“Understanding is understanding. How can I bear it if I don’t ask! Hahaha, I really didn’t expect the Decomposer to have such a day!” The blurry face burst into laughter.

“You’re the’dissecter ‘, I’m not!” The veins on Qin Lun’s forehead were erect, and his face was ferocious.

“Do you know best! Now that the first step of the plan has succeeded, you should calm down. Don’t waste all your efforts. I will watch you until you enter my room …” The questioning voice gradually weakened, and the surroundings returned to deathly silence.

Qin Lun closed his eyes and took a deep breath. He slowly regained his calm and focused his attention on the Treasure Map.

The massacre of the Atlanteans and the burning of the warehouse were all in Kieran’s calculations. The apostle mecha is made of spiritual equipment materials and is not as fragile as ordinary metal. Qin Lun believed that with the power of the Laws in the materials, he should be able to last at least half an hour in the sea of fire.

Not to mention the black rats and silver sails inside the castle, even the apostles outside the castle could sense the fluctuations of fire elements in the air. Half an hour was enough for the two of them to find the warehouse.

These two fellows were trapped in the main control room for most of the night, and they had been overshadowed by the security system. They would definitely be extremely unwilling to come out now. Seeing such a big fire, there was a 90% chance that they would choose to extinguish it.

As long as they entered the warehouse at the right time, they would definitely find the Apostle Mecha that Qin Lun had placed in the middle of the warehouse. Since Black Rat and Silver Sail could be selected to enter the city war, they would not be fools at the very least. Compared to the other two burned mechs, they naturally found that the apostle mechs were different.

At the scene of the massacre, the apostle mecha was worth millions of broken crystals, and the dense smell of silence could almost be smelled through his nose. Black Rat and Silver Sail pondered for a moment, and they were sure to come to the conclusion that Qin Lun wanted them to come to.

With a well-thought-out plan, perfect timing, and hidden guidance, Black Rat and Silver Sail would never believe that someone had voluntarily abandoned the Apostle Mech. They would become the first witnesses of Qin Lun’s plan.

Qin Lun lowered his head and looked deeply at the Treasure Map. Now that the conspiracy had taken shape, he was just waiting for him to throw in the most important chess piece. Then, this conspiracy would sweep through their region like a hurricane, catching all the apostles in one go!
