Chapter 524 - Gathering of Experts in the Cemetery (2/2)
“It might be Du Hen!” Du Peng blew off the stuffy feeling in his chest as he said, gritting his teeth, “Or Du Yu. I know he did practice the Phaseless Water Bird Art.”
Du Yu!? Qin Fen froze for a moment. Isn’t that Du Peng’s father? It seems he still has no good feelings for the Du Family apart from the guilty feeling for Du Zhanpeng. A child born from rape and moreover, the fate of his birth was to be a human cauldron. How could one have feelings for the so-called biological father in this situation?
Qin Fen heaved a light sight. Sometimes the world can be so warm, like Du Zhanpeng’s love for his brother Du Peng, and sometimes it can be cold and cruel. In the eyes of others, having been born in a huge family might seem like being born with a golden spoon, but his fate was more miserable than those born in an ordinary family.
“Is it Du Yu?”
Qin Fen asked, watching Du Peng answer with a slight nod, “It’s possible. I remember Du Yu was an all-rounded soldier… perhaps…”
Du Peng thought about it seriously before continuing, “Maybe he isn’t versatile as you are but he is still a very terrifying versatile soldier. Under Du Hen’s teaching, no one can be a simple soldier.”
Qin Fen nodded slowly, staring at the distant position where the warhead was cut. It seems that the army isn’t completely at ease with me. Perhaps Du Yu has really come to Saturn!? The huge benefits of new energy and endless prospects of new metal have drawn him out from hiding.
It’s quite possible! Qin Fen turned his head and looked at the middle-aged man, still thinking about the possibility of Du Yu coming to Saturn. He is a high-level figure in the military. If he wants to know about Saturn’s military affairs, it would not be difficult, at least right now! As for the future, once everything is done using Xing Wuyi’s encryption method, perhaps Earth Army will completely lose control of Saturn.
But… Qin Fen looked back at the position where the warhead was cut. If Du Yu really is here, he should have known that I would be coming here as well. Why did he cut the warhead and automatically expose the Phaseless Water Bird Art? Did he think Du Peng is the weakest in the squad, so he judged that Du Peng will not be joining this search?
“One last question.” Qin Fen looked at the middle-aged man. “Which direction did your Elysium team, as well as the team you ambushed, go towards…?”
The middle-aged man raised his hand gingerly as Qin Fen’s cold iron face turned grim. It seems my guess is right. The Elysium team and those people piloting the Jungle Rangers indeed went in the direction where the new energy and metal are discovered.
“I’m going to knock you out now. It will be better if you remember one thing. When you wake up, don’t get up and attack others casually. If my guess is right, Inferno’s team should be coming as well.
“What!? Inferno!?” The middle-aged man lost his wits momentarily. All he felt was an electric shock coming from the back of his neck. It was the high voltage electricity released by the Jungle Ranger as well as the effect of Qin Fen’s neck chop. He was knocked out.
Qin Fen turned his head and looked at Du Peng. At this time, he didn’t need too many words for communication. Du Pen knew Qin Fen was asking for advice from him.
In the current situation, they had two options. One was to immediately chase and grab the new metal and new energy in front of their opponents. The second choice was to be a hunter.
Currently, Elysium was the praying mantis. The mysterious mobile armor squad was an oriole. And behind the oriole might be a poisonous viper, which was Inferno that was likely to appear!
“I want to be a praying mantis.” Du Peng’s voice resounded from under the cold iron face. “We should get to the new energy as soon as possible.”
A smiling Qin Fen raised his metallic arm and patted Du Peng’s shoulder with a loud clang. Both had the same idea! Hiding behind the scenes as a hunter was a pretty good way but it would be even more troublesome if they couldn’t hunt the target. Furthermore, youngsters should have an impact. If they couldn’t make a strong impact this time, Saturn’s military would bear all kinds of pressure.
Although the outbreak of impact would arouse the attention of various parties, it would make everyone have scruples. They would not send spies directly into the army as unscrupulously as they had been doing now.
The two stared at each other before piloting their respective Jungle Rangers into the depths of the jungle. Not long after their departure, Caesar also appeared in the place where they were just standing. He was a bit surprised by the sight of the cut warhead. “Has Du Peng been hiding his strength? It’s a pretty sharp cut! That’s not right! The way this Jungle Ranger’s move is a bit different from Du Peng’s…”
SWISH!
Caesar drove the Jungle Ranger into the depths of the jungle quickly.
Not long after, Inferno’s God of Night 1appeared in the same position, looking seriously at the warhead and the footsteps on the ground.
“Cutting rocket’s warhead in a Jungle Ranger!? Expert!”
“It’s an expert. It seems we need to pay more attention.”
A thick voice resounded from behind the God of Night, which was the voice of the Sixth Inferno King. “The soldiers are the ones most likely to use Jungle Rangers but judging by the track marks here, there seem to be two batches of soldiers. What’s going on? Except for Saturn, has Earth’s military also sent a team?”
The God of Night looked up at the sky with Sixth Inferno King’s voice, in the direction of Earth.
“Father, Saturn seems to have discovered new energy and new metal.” A somewhat haggard Du Yu stood before Du Hen’s desk and reported in a low voice.
“Understood.”
“Should we…”
“No need.” Du Hen fiddled with the hanging orchid on the table. “Qin Fen is on Saturn, let him do everything.”
“But Qin Fen and his team…”
“Unsafe!? I might lose control over them?” Du Hen sneered without raising his head. “It doesn’t matter. Isn’t that good? Aren’t they getting stronger? That’s enough. Apart from the fact that the goal of a divine beast martial artist in the army has not been achieved, my other goals have not changed. Are they still not advancing according to my plans?”
“But father…”
“Don’t talk again about Saturn or Qin Fen. That’s all.” Du Hen raised his head finally, looking at Du Yu. “Some time ago, you gave me much trouble. Fortunately, I liked the results. But to prevent another accident like Zhanpeng, I think you better work harder.”
Du Yu stared at Du Hen in a daze. This man is really cold! It seems there is nothing in this world that can stir up his emotions. This man doesn’t even regard me as a pawn on his chessboard! If his plans could be achieved by sacrificing me, would he sacrifice me in cold blood?
Du Hen looked up to Du Yu and nodded slowly. “I will.”
Du Yu felt a chill running through his bones. Did he really see through my thoughts?
“Everything is for the highest goal.” Du Hen fiddled calmly with the hanging orchid. “Why should we care about the process as long as the result is correct? Du Yu, you have to remember, if I’m dead, the East Asia Military Region will depend on you to lead. You can’t have any personal emotions because your emotions can lead to the death of a million people, or save even more people.”
“Father, I have one more thing to say about Saturn.”
Du Hen, lowering his head, continued fiddling with the hanging orchid leaves, unconcerned. “Speak.”
“Zuo Family’s survivor…” Du Yu spoke cautiously. “Xing Wuyi’s surgery was very clean but some things in the Zuo Family are too deep. I didn’t find anything before the operation. I heard that these survivors had already entered Saturn. One of them is the personal disciple of Zuo Dongting, Light Cutter – Chen Ni.”
“Chen Ni!? That criminal!?: Du Hen clucked his tongue twice. “That Chen Ni used to be a genius once but now he is just a forty-five years old man. He was captured by Zuo Dongting back then, claiming him to be a big sinner, and since then, he started following Zuo Dongting and went by the moniker of Heaven Splitter, Light Splitter? He himself couldn’t have expected that when he exited his seclusion after so long, the Zuo Family would have already disappeared.”
“Yes, that Chen Ni.” Du Yu said in a low voice. “You have once said that his Light Cut should be a Water Bird Exercise derived from our Phaseless Water Bird Art.”
“Interesting.” Du Hen sneered without even looking up. “This Chen Ni is known as the last trump card of the Zuo Family. And he actually went to Saturn. Well, now I know. You can leave now.”
