Dean looked at the host city for a moment. He turned into a dark shadow and lurked close to the ground.
"There are detection systems in the sky and underground. Many plants on the ground have been modified with tiny detectors." Dean narrowed his eyes slightly. His dark golden pupils scanned the grass in front of him. He saw that in the middle of the verdant grass, there were many stems embedded with toothpick-sized metal bars. They were very soft. Even if the weeds were trampled on, they wouldn't damage the metal detector inside.
Only Lin Changsheng knew about this detector. He used his mechanical legion to secretly set it up to guard against the people of the Federation. This was his lair, his heart!
If it was anyone else hiding here, no matter how careful they were, they would turn into a shadow, shrink into a poisonous snake, burrow into the ground, and so on. They would all be seen by Lin Changsheng. With Lin Changsheng's huge computing power, no matter how the human camouflaged, he would be able to speculate the flaws in a second.
However, Dean knew about Lin Changsheng's memory so he was prepared. The detector had a radius of about 50 meters. Moreover, the angle of the detector on each grass was different. As a result, there was no dead angle at all.
But it wasn't a problem for him. He could create a dead angle.
A pair of shadow wings extended from the back of the shadow that he had transformed into. They were like two giant palms, waving forward in a seemingly slow but actually extremely fast manner. It was as if all the air within a dozen cubic meters had been pushed out, setting off a gentle gust of wind that slowly drifted dozens of meters away, bending the grass where the detector was buried. At the same time, his body quickly moved closer. When the gentle wind stopped, he was already more than 10 centimeters below the grass. His body was submerged in the soil and he turned into a pangolin-like shadow.
With his current genetic editing ability, he could write a strange breathing organ that could absorb oxygen even in the soil.
"Lin Changsheng is on guard against me. He calculated that I have part of his memory and know about the traps outside the host city. He might try to avoid these traps. It stands to reason that there are other ways to avoid these traps. But with Lin Changsheng's wisdom and the computing power of the host city, he should be able to think of seven or eight countermeasures and set up a tighter defense in other places."
"I'll do the opposite. This path is the safest."
"However, it is also possible that he has calculated this and has done the exact opposite. He kept the original arrangements at the periphery so that I would lower my vigilance, but when we were deep inside, he did something even more ruthless."
Dean was lying on the ground, calculating in his mind.
Although his calculation ability couldn't compare to Lin Changsheng's, he could slowly sort out his thoughts. He wasn't in a hurry. The speed of his thoughts didn't affect the accuracy of the results.
In this game, he and Lin Changsheng were not the only ones on the chessboard. There was also an unknown moving chess piece, the Demon Emperor.
However, the 'unknown' here was only to him. Perhaps the Demon Emperor had long since entered Lin Changsheng's line of sight and was being treated as a game partner by Lin Changsheng.
"I interfered in the collapse of the first line of defense. Perhaps Lin Changsheng will realize my goal. If that's the case, the Demon Emperor might not be mistaken for me." Dean slowly frowned. He felt that he had acted recklessly before. He shouldn't have intervened in the border war. Based on his understanding of Lin Changsheng, the latter had the ability to calculate the detailed results of the war, including the specific number of casualties and the process and time of the collapse.
Although the battlefield was changing rapidly but Lin Changsheng's calculation ability was too strong. One minute of thinking was equivalent to a hundred years of thinking. It was enough to calculate the complete situation of the battlefield. However, because of Dean's intervention, the situation of the battlefield was different from Lin Changsheng's calculation. Lin Changsheng would be aware of the heresy and thus guess Dean's purpose.
When the game reached the extreme, both sides were basically open cards. Using open cards to confront each other relied on instantaneous changes and judgment. It wasn't like pulling out hidden cards and turning them into killer moves.
"The worst-case scenario is that Lin Changsheng knows that there are three people on the chessboard and has deduced our position. That Demon Emperor also knows of my existence through other means. Everyone has about the same amount of information, and my advantage is gone." Dean was a little worried. Although he knew that this was the worst speculation, he had to prepare for the worst.
"If I were the Demon Overlord, I might have lurked in the host city a long time ago instead of sneaking in during this sensitive period of war. All the people who enter the host city during this time will be included in the suspect list by Lin Changsheng and closely monitored. Every corner of the city is his eyes." Dean's eyes flashed. "Even if the Demon Emperor knows about my existence and knows that someone is waiting for the oriole behind, there is no way to continue lurking."
"The war has broken out and Crimson Moon has made a move. The opportunity has appeared and I can't miss it. I just need to wait behind him."
"However, he may not be willing to let others pick the peach. He will have other arrangements. If I were him, I would make a move now and retreat in defeat …"
Boom!!
As Dean was thinking, there was a sudden violent sound. The ground shook and the surrounding grass trembled. Dean's eyes turned golden. Through his eyelids and the soil, he saw the host city in the distance. There was thick black smoke coming out of it. After the loud noise, there was a sudden burst of crackling sound. It seemed that there was a riot in the city.
After a while, he seemed to have made a decision. He extended a little shadow, turned it into a small palm, and fanned out a breeze, bending the tender grass implanted with detectors nearby, clearing a blind spot. Then he climbed out of the mud, waved a bigger wind, and rushed forward quickly, avoiding all the detectors in the tender grass, as well as some mechanical snakes and mechanical bugs active in the tender grass.
A few minutes later, Dean appeared in the host city. He was familiar with the road and avoided Lin Changsheng's arrangements. When he was about to enter the city, an alarm suddenly sounded around him. The patrolling mechanical soldiers quickly heard the alarm and came over. Countless machine gun fingers pointed at him and issued a humanistic warning. But before the warning was finished, it seemed that something interrupted them and they opened fire.
Dean knew that Lin Changsheng had seen this scene through them and forcibly controlled the mechanical soldiers.
Moreover, as he had guessed before, he avoided the traps according to Lin Changsheng's memory. He didn't expect to trigger the alarm in the end. It could be seen that this place was well prepared.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
As soon as the machine gun opened, Dean suddenly felt a sense of danger. This ordinary machine gun made him feel a sense of death. His scalp exploded and he instantly burst out at full speed. At the same time, a large number of sharp blades emerged from his body. The blades on his body shook like scales and flew out, shooting towards the many mechanical soldiers.
