Chapter 29: The Demonic Faction, Principal’s Arrangements
“It should be him, that’s right!”
Zhang Feng listened to Lin Tian’s narration, he mentioned all sorts of strange behaviors of Li Mingyang. Most importantly, he was completely certain about the black gas.
One of their targets should be this student called Li Mingyang.
“However, this Li Mingyang is probably just a pawn of the Demonic Faction. The real mastermind behind this isn’t that simple!”
Zhang Feng’s expression became more and more serious as he said in a deep voice.
“What is the Demonic Faction?”
At this moment, Lin Tian was a little curious. Why did this Demonic Faction sound like a cult?
It sounded like it was not something good.
“The Demonic Faction is a cult that has been very active recently!”
Zhou Qi, a member of the guard team, said in a deep voice as she explained the origins of the Demonic Faction to Lin Tian.
Ever since the Divinity Revival, the magical beasts had been devouring the human dwellings and spreading despair. At the same time, there were also some speculators within the human race.
These speculators had somehow obtained the evil energy and were able to quickly advance to a more powerful level.
However, the evil energy would bewitch the human heart and erode the remaining rationality of a human. In the end, they would become beasts that only knew how to kill.
However, these speculators proclaimed the evil energy as the power that the heavens had thrown down to save humanity.
They even compared it to the new power of evolution, allowing the despairing people to see hope and join them one after another.
In the end, they started to establish various organizations. The Demonic Faction was one of them. They bewitched people and made these despairing people become their guinea pigs. At the same time, they wantonly destroyed the human camp from the inside. They had ulterior motives after all.
“Actually, some of these organizations have existed since a long time ago!”
Zhang Feng said calmly. He lit a cigarette and Lin Tian frowned slightly.
This was the first time he had heard of such a thing.
“Then why have we never seen any relevant records?”
Lin Tian could not help but ask. He had never heard of such a thing. It was not recorded in any documents or books.
“A few decades ago, we had suppressed a huge riot. We thought it had been purged, but now there are more and more of them!”
Zhang Feng could understand Lin Tian’s excitement.
When he first came into contact with these, he was also very excited.
However, because there were more and more cults these days, the Alliance of Guard’s actions became faster and faster. They began to capture people from these cults.
“Can you give us this student card?” Zhang Feng asked in a solemn voice. Because this involved the Demonic Faction, this high school student named Li Mingyang had definitely become their target.
Perhaps there would be even more complicated connections involved.
“You guys can take it. I don’t need it anyway!”
Lin Tian nodded. He didn’t need the Leping High School student ID. Furthermore, based on his understanding of the Demonic Faction, the evil energy, and the cult, he felt that the person he was dealing with was probably just a small fry.
Even if he kept it, it would be useless.
“But we still want to ask you for a favor, but it might be a little dangerous!” Zhang Feng looked at Lin Tian and saluted him.
“It’s alright, Captain Zhang, go ahead!” Lin Tian said with a smile. He had experienced events that almost cost his life, so what was this little bit of danger?
Besides, those cults were really hateful.
He didn’t expect such a traitor to appear at a time when humanity was supposed to be united.
“We suspect that there might be members of Demonic Faction secretly controlling all of this in this joint examination, so we would like to ask you to help lure out the mastermind!”
Zhang Feng looked around and saw that there was no one around. He said in a low voice, and Lin Tian finally reacted.
This student named Li Mingyang was also a third-year high school student, and his strength had already reached bronze-level.
The participants of Anping High School were mostly bronze armored envoys, and the other high schools were probably no exception. This Li Mingyang should also be participating in the examination.
It turned out that the guards were planning to make a fuss in this area and find out the big fish.
“Alright, but let me make it clear first. If there is any danger, I will immediately withdraw from the investigation!”
Lin Tian said in a deep voice. Although he did have justice in his heart, if he really encountered danger, he would not blindly rush forward.
The higher-ups of the cult who were able to control the bronze-level armored envoy must be very powerful. Who knew how much power the Demonic Faction still had in their hands.
Lin Tian was not a rash person. He made his position clear.
“Lin Tian, on behalf of the entire Alliance of Guard, I would like to express our high gratitude to you!”
At this moment, the entire guard team five bowed to Lin Tian. At the same time, they saluted him, making Lin Tian feel a little embarrassed.
At the same time, they also told Lin Tian to retreat immediately if there was any danger. They also told them to inform the higher-ups of the Demonic Faction as soon as they were discovered. The rest of the matter would be handed over to them.
Lin Tian didn’t need to care about the other matters. This was also to protect Lin Tian’s safety. At the same time, on the day of the joint examination, the team of guards would also appear in plain clothes and deploy themselves in the examination venue.
After that, this matter came to an end temporarily. Lin Tian also returned home.
…
In the past few days, other than going out occasionally, Lin Tian had basically been doing his best to prepare for the joint examination. He had already memorized the contents and knowledge of this written examination for quite a few days.
Today, it finally came to an end, and the joint examination was about to arrive.
Lin Tian, who had already finished his revision earlier today, was just about to eat lunch when he was blocked by two middle-aged men.
One of them was the form teacher, Zheng Rong, and the other was the principal, Zhu Chang. These two men had been coming to class two frequently, and they kept looking for him, which gave Lin Tian goosebumps.
“Lin Tian, is it convenient for us to have lunch together today?”
The principal, Zhu Chang, rubbed his hands together and chuckled. He had been waiting for this opportunity for a long time. Usually, he was too embarrassed to disturb him while preparing for the exams.
Now that he was preparing for the joint examination, he had to express his gratitude. Moreover, he had also received news from the Alliance of Guard and learned about what had happened to Lin Tian.
“Alright!”
Lin Tian actually had a request from the principal. He didn’t know if he could handle the joint examination.
The three of them arrived at a high-class restaurant. The principal went straight to the point. He wasn’t so pretentious in front of his own students.
“Lin Tian, I want to ask you for a favor. This joint examination is very important to the entire Anping High School…”
At the same time, the principal handed an envelope to Lin Tian. There was nearly 100,000 credits in it. As long as Lin Tian could win the championship, he could even add another 50,000 credits.
Lin Tian didn’t expect the principal to be so generous.
“Principal, are you so sure that I can win the championship?”
Lin Tian said with a smile. The principal laughed. He naturally trusted Lin Tian. At the same time, he told Lin Tian that he would arrange everything for him.
That Li Mingyang was indeed going to participate in the joint examination. When the time came, he would naturally be able to meet him.
