1365 Death Trap Plan!
"That means if you stayed in the Huaxia Federation, your future would be limitless. Why did you choose to come here in the end? "Ling Lan raised her eyebrows and asked.
"A man who is never content is like a snake trying to swallow an elephant. When I found out that the descendant of the influential family that I had a conflict with was climbing higher than me, he used his family's influence to become a regiment commander and a senior colonel." Ji Ming smiled mockingly. "Isn't it funny? The things that I was proud of were nothing in front of power … Especially when he used his military rank to suppress me, my beliefs started to waver."
"With your rationality, it's impossible for you to betray your country or commit a heinous crime. As long as you don't go overboard, your faction won't give up on you so easily. " Ling Lan guessed, "Then, there's only one possibility. You want to gain military merits so that you can rise quickly. You can stand on the same starting line as him or even higher. Then, you can return all the humiliation he gave you back to him."
Ji Ming narrowed his eyes when he heard Lord Gen's words. He hid the shock in his eyes. He didn't expect Lord Gen to be able to see through his personality after just meeting him four or five times. This made him feel a chill in his heart. The person in front of him wasn't just powerful, his intelligence and scheming skills were also heaven-defying. Who could restrain such a terrifying person?
"Did I guess wrongly?" Ling Lan raised her eyebrows when she felt Ji Ming's silence. However, her eyes were filled with confidence.
This question woke Ji Ming up from his stupor. He quickly replied, "Lord Gen, you're right."
He smiled bitterly. "I was young and arrogant. I thought that as long as I dared to think, I would be able to succeed … Coincidentally, my faction wanted to fight for some benefits so I needed some achievements. Thus, I created a plan to invade the Lawless Lands. It's called 'Death Trap'."
"Death Trap?" Ling Lan frowned. This name had a murderous aura to it. It wasn't a good thing.
"Yes, Death Trap. Choose a group of soldiers loyal to the Federation and give up your original identity. Become a heinous criminal and enter the Lawless Lands. Use your own methods to enter the different factions and start all sorts of wars to deplete the power of the Lawless Lands. Once discovered, you must not reveal your true identity even if you die, "Ji Ming said coldly. Back then, he had spent his best years in the Lawless Lands. Due to the environment, his body deteriorated rapidly. He saw the end of his life. It was already not easy for Ji Ming to be able to look past it calmly.
"It seems that you have failed," Ling Lan said.
"I don't know if there are other dead bodies in the Lawless Lands. We don't know each other and we don't know how to contact each other. We are just a thread. From the beginning to the end of the thread, I don't know if we will be stained with the blood of our fellow dead bodies …" Ji Ming lowered his head and looked at his hands. His hands were already stained with sin. Even if he was lucky enough to succeed, he wouldn't be able to go back to his innocent self.
"The 13 Lords … are not people that you can deal with." Ling Lan sighed in her heart. If she couldn't become one of the 13 Lords, how could she succeed? The dead body plan was destined to fail. The only pity was that this plan had lost many outstanding talents in the Federation.
Ling Lan believed that those dead men, whose lives were unknown, were definitely not much weaker than Ji Ming. Otherwise, they would not have been able to climb up the ranks of the various major factions and complete the plan they had originally set. However, the lords she met were all sly and cunning people. They would definitely know everything about a person's ancestors. Ji Ming managed to fool them, but would the others be as lucky as him?
Moreover, Ji Ming was a person who was good at disguising himself. He cleverly chose to disguise himself as someone who was annoying, not likable, not valued, but also someone who wouldn't be easily suspected. Ji Ming was undoubtedly very smart. He grasped a good point and hid himself among the guardians. He didn't stand out but didn't fall behind. He didn't make people dislike him but also didn't make people wary of him.
"I only understood this after I became a guardian. If it wasn't for Lord Gen's appearance, I felt that my life would have ended like this. Everything I experienced in the Huaxia Federation was just a figment of my imagination … "Ji Ming's expression was pained. If he knew this would happen, he definitely wouldn't have fought back.
"Yes, I'm very satisfied with your answer." Ling Lan carried Little White and stood up. "Your life is your own. Whether you can survive or not depends on whether you can walk into the medical department alive."
After saying this, Ling Lan disappeared from the main hall.
Ji Ming looked at the empty main hall and smiled bitterly. The secret that he tried his best to hide in the past was finally revealed in order to survive. This was a betrayal. Logically speaking, he should feel ashamed. However, for some reason, he actually felt relieved. It was as though the burden that had been weighing on his heart was completely lifted after he told the truth.
After sitting there for a few more seconds, Ji Ming took a deep breath. Enduring the intense pain all over his body, he forced himself to get up.
Lord Gen said that if he wanted to live, he had to fight for it himself. Ji Ming could feel his injuries worsening. Three times the power of an imperial realm concept. Even if it was just for a short while, it was enough to take their lives. Fortunately, Lord Gen managed to block the most powerful attack in time. Plus, he activated his defensive barrier in time, saving his life. However, that was all. He could only hope that the medicine from the medical department would be more effective and stop the worsening of his injuries. Only then would he have a chance to live.
Ji Ming painfully moved his first step towards the medical department. This was the first time he hated the fact that the medical department was too far away from the main hall. If he could survive, he would definitely move the medical department to the side of the main hall!
At the same time, on Planet Cheyu of the Huaxia Federation, the Lingtian Independent Army, which was resting and recovering, received two uninvited guests.
Zilong had a straight face. He pretended that he didn't see the two 'important guests' from Long Xiang sitting on the soft leather sofa in his office.
"Major General Qi, we're considered old acquaintances. Can you not put on such an expression?" Mu Chaoran smiled. He didn't feel embarrassed at all when he saw Zilong's angry expression.
"Haha, Senior Colonel Mu, we've only met a few times. We can't be considered old acquaintances." Zilong squeezed out a fake smile. He didn't like these two people at all.
Every time these two people came, it wasn't a good thing. In the past, Boss was there so he wasn't afraid of trouble. However, now … according to Han Jijun's words, he should stay as far away from them as possible. He didn't want to implicate them.
"Don't be so heartless. In the past, we went through thick and thin with your Boss. We can be considered brothers." Mu Chaoran tried to get closer to him.
He didn't have a choice. Ling Lan's whereabouts were very mysterious. In the end, they lost their direction. They had no choice but to ask Ling Lan's subordinates for clues.
