Chapter 1863 - 999: The Strength of the Northern Territory Federation

When Dapao said this, he did not avoid the young Su Yuan standing beside him.

Xiao Yuan watched Dapao talk confidently, inexplicably feeling a sense of fear.

Fear of the unknown!

He didn’t know what this person was going to do!

Standing beside him, Xiao He listened to Dapao and thought it made a lot of sense.

But he also harbored some doubts, knowing the weaknesses, but how would that help?

After all, from the current situation, it seems that this kid was coerced into coming here, and he dares not speak up because his family is likely in the hands of that unknown force.

Right now, they have no idea where that force is, so how could they exploit his weaknesses?

So he asked, "Brother Pao, after discovering the weaknesses, then what? What should we do?"

Dapao’s eyes sparkled with wisdom.

He spoke slowly:

"We’ve explored within dozens of kilometers around this Oil City, and haven’t found any other major forces. Since he was coerced into coming here, do you think he’s the only one?"

Xiao He nodded and said, "But we’ve already searched around and found nothing. Maybe they’re hiding... but it’s hard to find them."

Suddenly, Dapao turned around and stared directly at Xiao Yuan, yet he was answering Xiao He’s question.

"Everyone has weaknesses. For some, targeting their body with torture can make them speak.

But others have things more important than life itself—it could be someone or something.

This is when you attack their mind, focus on what they care about the most. What are they afraid of, that’s what we do."

After speaking, Dapao walked to the table and poured himself a glass of water.

Confidently, he said, "Kid, you certainly have accomplices nearby, and they’re probably waiting for your signal now.

I think they’re threatening you this way: if you’re found out and want to defect, dare to say anything, they would definitely harm your family, right?"

Gudong Gudong—

Dapao took two sips from the cup, then quietly watched Xiao Yuan.

Xiao Yuan’s expression became somewhat horrified as he thought: How does he know? How could he possibly know?

But soon, his face turned ashen.

Even if he knew, so what? He wouldn’t say anything, couldn’t say anything! What would happen to his sister if he did!

He had accepted his fate; at worst, he’d just die for these secrets!

Xiao Yuan slowly lowered his head.

Dapao detected the death wish in Xiao Yuan’s eyes, and lightly chuckled, saying:

"You’re afraid they’ll think you’ve defected and then harm your family. So, you say nothing!"

"But do you think by saying nothing, they believe you haven’t defected? Won’t harm your family? Kid, you’re really naive!"

Upon hearing, the youth raised his head in shock, saying, "No way! They promised me; I haven’t said anything, why would they do that?"

Dapao sneered and replied:

"It’s already Doomsday, do you think they’d really keep their promises?"

The youth’s eyes showed some hesitation but still resolutely replied:

"No matter what, I’ll never tell you guys anything!"

Thinking internally: If I speak up and Brother Meng finds out, once they go back, they’ll definitely report to Boss Diao and doom my sister.

If I say nothing and die here, whether they’ll keep their promise remains unknown.

But, if I speak, my sister will certainly be targeted!

So, no matter what, he wouldn’t speak up!

Dapao placed the cup back on the table.

He cheerfully looked at the youth and said:

"Kid, I kind of feel sorry for you."

"In this situation, whether you’ve spoken or defected, it’s not within your control, the advantage lies with us, understand?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuan felt a chill and shockingly asked: "What are you going to do!?!"

Dapao brushed dust off his clothes, casually saying:

"If we take a loudspeaker and bring you outside to shout: Su Yuan has spilled everything, and tell them to come out quickly, do you think they’d believe you’ve defected?"

"Of course, if they’re clever, they might think you’ve been forced. If they’re foolish, they’d believe it. But regardless, do you think these untrustworthy people, upon seeing you with us, would hurt your family?"

Xiao Yuan’s vision darkened as he looked at Dapao like seeing a Demon.

How can one be so cunning and evil!

"You’re despicable!" Xiao Yuan cursed angrily.

Dapao dug his ears, unfazed by Xiao Yuan’s insult.

Glanced at Xiao He and Xiao Wu beside him, seeing them admiringly looking at him, he felt extremely gratified.

He coughed lightly.

"Stop cursing, I’m giving you two choices now."

"First choice, later we’ll take you out, tell them you’ve surrendered everything, they might not come out, but once they return, they’ll definitely harm your family.

Second choice, actually, we’re good people, if you trust us, confess everything, we’ll work together to capture those who came with you, then nobody would know you defected, right.

Even, we can send you back. When you return with some intel, we’ll cooperate with you, after returning, they might even reward you."
