Chapter 1298 - 1298: Start Taking Action

In the afternoon of that day, Guan Clan and Sang Clan announced their alliance, and two other clans also allied to take revenge on Men Clan. However, these two clans were only mid-level clans, so their news did not create as much excitement as those two major clans joining forces.

As soon as the Dark Crescent Secret Force heard about this, they sped up their actions even more, because this was their great opportunity. Even though they risked exposing themselves to the public more, they were willing to do it, to take revenge and show the world that their force was not easily insulted.

And among all these movements, one young man worked harder than everyone else. He had barely slept. If he had not used the disguise skill, one would have been able to clearly see the dark and thick circles under his eyes by now.

After the Dark Crescent Secret Force's Big Chief came to see him yesterday, he had to change his plans again. Today was the last day he would disguise himself as Lou-Seng because he had already destroyed all of the Dark Crescent Secret Force's spell networks and tactical formations. But to call it destroying them would not be right; it would be more accurate to say that he had modified them to make them his own.

Because all the original spell nets and tactical formations were still in place, he knew that if they were erased, someone would notice and it would become a big deal. Therefore, modifying and revising them was the best way.

In the Thirteenth Unit's conference meeting room...

"Is everyone here?"

Yes, sir, Chief!

Good!

"I called everyone to gather because we'll start a new mission today. I know you're all uncomfortable and dissatisfied with not being able to go out and do the task. Before, I didn't let you do it because it wasn't the right time, but now it's time. And here, a gift to comfort you all."

Hah?!!

Chief?!!

When he was ready to move, Zheng-Fu used all the pawns he had placed. The first group he chose was the remaining assassins in the Thirteenth Unit. Even though he had been with these people for many days, he did not feel any attachment to any of them. On the contrary, the more he knew about them, the more he hated and detested them. Because these people were all evil, Zheng-Fu chose them as his first pawns to use and discard.

Of course, to use people to do work, there had to be some small reward. To encourage these disposable pawns, Zheng-Fu gave them a gift of a high-level energy-boosting pill. This medicine was suitable for cultivators who were no higher than the advanced Deity Monarch Stage, and these assassins were only at the Genuine Deity Stage. Therefore, the gift Zheng-Fu gave them was extremely valuable.

Flop!

Wow!!!

This… this is… advanced heavenly energy-boosting medicine?!

Yes, that's right!

"With this pill, my energy level will surely increase by another level!"

"You idiot! How can it be just one level? You underestimate the advanced heavenly energy pill too much. It should be at least two levels!"

Umm!

That's true!

When the assassins in the Thirteenth Unit saw the energy-boosting pills Zheng-Fu gave them, their eyes lit up with excitement and joy. Many of them had almost broken through to the next energy level. If they absorbed these energy-boosting pills, they would become stronger. How could they not be excited and happy?

Thank you very much, sir, Chief!!!

"No matter what you order us to do, we'll do our best!"

Yes, yes, yes!

Good!

"That's good. Because the mission I'm going to give you might cause you a little trouble. I want you to help me deal with the people of the single-digit units."

Hah!!!

"Deal with the single-digit units?!"

Yes!

"You guys don't know that a few days ago, they've been slandering our unit, especially those damn Seventh Unit and Ninth Unit. They were the ones who instigated other units to dislike us. So, I want you to deal with them."

Err…

"But Chief, our force has a rule that says…"

"You are prohibited from killing each other, right? That's right! The rules of the force stipulate that. But who told you guys that we would do it within the force?"

"Then where are we going to do it?!"

"You'll find out when the time comes. Now, quickly absorb the energy from your energy-boosting pills!"

Umm!!!

Yes, sir, Chief!!!

Zheng-Fu did not need to tell these pawns too much because they would eventually be eliminated anyway. So, he ordered them to quickly sit down and absorb the energy from the pills he gave them first. After that, he would send them out and do their missions as he ordered. The reason he let them absorb the medicine first was that those energy-boosting pills contained poisonous herbs. This poison would hallucinate those who absorbed it, causing them to go berserk.

A few minutes passed…

Booooom!!!

Booooom! Booooom! Booooom!

Not long after, a large number of energy waves exploded from within the bodies of the assassins of the Thirteenth Unit. It was a very interesting sight to see. Many of them who were at the advanced Genuine Deity Stage had broken through two to three energy levels until they stepped into the Deity Monarch Stage. The people in the Deity Monarch Stage became even stronger, but… it did not end there, because…

Arrrrrrrgh!!!

Bulge! Bulge! Bulge!

After the continuous and violent energy explosions, the poison in the energy-boosting pills began to take effect. Those assassins slowly began to lose control, their bodies gradually became stronger, and their muscles swelled before numerous veins terrifyingly appeared on their bodies. And finally, their entire bodies turned red like demons from hell.

Yaaaaak!!!

Booooooom!!!

Once the poison had reached its final effect, one of the assassins, who could not control himself, could no longer sit still. He immediately stood up and attacked the things nearby. However, because he had just increased his energy level, the intensity of his attacks was not very stable. Sometimes it was heavy, sometimes it was light, but it still caused quite a bit of damage.

Arrrrrgh! Arrrrrgh! Arrrrrgh!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The second, third, and fourth assassins followed. Before all Zheng-Fu's pawns were completely under the effects of the poison and started to rampage madly. However, no matter how mad they were, they did not hurt each other. Instead, they turned to destroy things and tried to go outside to attack whoever or whatever they found. And that was because the poison had been adjusted by Zheng-Fu.

Great!

"These pawns should be able to buy me some time."

When Zheng-Fu saw the pawns start to move and do as he wanted, a satisfied smile slowly appeared at the corner of his mouth. Before his body disappeared from the room with his advanced invisibility skill. His next goal was to seize all of the force's treasures, leaving nothing behind.

In the corridor of the Dark Crescent Secret Force's main headquarters...

"Sigh! Today is such a boring day. Why do I have to be this stupid corridor guard? Nothing is exciting about it. It would be better if I went out and did a mission outside!"

"What do you complain about? If you're not happy, then tell Chief. He might cancel the corridor guarding."

Huh!

"Who would dare? If I talk to Chief like that, my head will definitely come off my shoulders."

Ha ha ha!

"That's it. Then why are you complaining? Just stand here guarding. It's almost time for the shift to change."

"Sigh! I really want to change shifts quickly. Eh!? Who's that?!"

Hah!

Thump! Thump! Thump!

Whoooosh!!!

Slash!

Arrrrrgh!

Hey!

While the two guards were chatting to relieve their boredom, suddenly, they saw the shadows of a group of people heading towards them. Since the corridor was dimly lit, the guards could not see their faces clearly. So, one of them shouted to ask. However, before he could get an answer, that group of people rushed towards them and began slashing their swords and sabers viciously, causing the guard who asked to have his head instantly detached from his body without him realizing it.

"What the hell are you guys doing?! Don't you know that our force has a rule that... Hah!"

Kill!!!

Hey!

No... No!!!

Slash!

Arrrrrrrgh!

In the blink of an eye, the two guards were killed in cold blood without any chance to defend themselves. The group of assassins from the Thirteenth Unit was going crazy and didn't care about anything except killing and killing.

Kill!!!

After killing the two guards, they immediately moved forward. Next to the corridor were the training room and the dining room, which were the places with the most people. The dining room was closer than the training room, so they rushed in there first. Then, the bloody and chaotic scene began without anyone realizing it.

Ah!!!

You bastards!

"What's going on? Which unit are they from?"

Hey!

Hide quickly!

They're crazy!

"Hurry up! Quickly inform the Control Unit about this; otherwise, all our brothers will be killed by these crazy people!"

Arrrrrrrgh!!!

Inside the Ninth Unit's main office...

Toot! Toot! Toot!

Hah?!

"Who is playing for fun!? They're in the Force but using the communication jade. Have they forgotten the rules?"

What's going on?

"Someone is using communication jade in the force without permission."

Hah?!

"Did someone dare to break the rules? I have to punish him so he'll learn what's right and what's wrong. Look at the message he sent?"

Yes, sir, Chief!

Hah!

What's the matter?!

"The message says that several force members are going crazy and killing others in the dining room, sir!"

Hah!?

Thump! Thump! Thump!

Bang!

Report, sir, Chief!

"Right now, in the dining room, the killing is going on. The perpetrators are all from the Thirteenth Unit. Everyone seemed to be out of character, as if they had been infiltrated by the fire element. The other skilled masters and unit chiefs were now gathering in the dining room, sir!"

Hah!!!

Before the Ninth Unit Chief could check whether the message sent was true, a member came in and reported the chaotic situation that was consistent with the message he had received.

"I understood. I'll rush there right now!"

Yes, sir!

"Order the Ninth Unit's skilled masters to quickly go to the dining room to help control the situation. If it cannot be controlled, kill them!"

Yes, sir, Chief!

Other than the Ninth Unit, other units also quickly sent their skilled masters to the dining room. They thought that the situation would not be too serious. Nevertheless, they were wrong. After the pawns of the Thirteenth Unit entered the dining room, more than a hundred assassins were killed. Only a few were able to escape. That was because no one in the dining room was at an energy level higher than the Deity Monarch Stage.
