Above the capital city, in the blue sky, something seemed to be emitting hazy brilliance under the illumination of the sunlight.
It was' Hidden Star ', a stealth warship that had been painted with optical camouflage. It was a crystal warship that belonged to the Secret Sword Bureau.
Other than being the largest intelligence agency of the Federation, the Secret Sword Bureau was also responsible for executing the small groups of demons and evil Cultivators in the heartland of the Federation. Therefore, it had its own independent armed forces and even fleets, which were different from the Union Army.
The crystal warships of the Secret Sword Bureau were more focused on small-scale battles in urban environments. Perhaps their firepower was not as high as the crystal warships of the military, but in terms of the precision of scanning mystic rays, the controllability and invisibility of magical equipment, the rune arrays to suppress targets on the ground, and the reserve of techniques, they were much better. …
Also, the secret warriors that the Secret Sword Bureau had trained themselves had accumulated abundant experience fighting in the densely populated, complicated urban areas for a long time.
It was safe to say that, in such an environment, they were stronger than any special force in the Union Army.
At this moment, 'Hidden Star', 'Hidden Mist', 'Hidden Wind', and 'Hidden Moon', which were designed to suppress targets on the ground, were hovering in the sky of the capital city without a sound. Connected to the ten thousand surveillance cameras scattered everywhere in the capital city, they constituted an impenetrable net that covered the entire city.
Most of the crystal warships were commanded by Lu Zui, the director of the Secret Sword Bureau, in person.
Lu Zui himself was watching the light beam in the secret command room of 'Hidden Star', the flagship, in silence.
On the other side of the light beam, Guo Chunfeng was truly beaming with joy. He had just received the report of the operation from the headquarters of the Secret Sword Bureau. "Director, Mo Xuan, Ding Ling Dong, Wu Mayan, and Xie Anan have all been detained!
"Mo Xuan is suspected of hacking Li Yao's crystal processor and stealing tremendous files about the sniper rifle Herald, which he forwarded to Blood Devil Li Yao and helped him defeat 'Death Ray' Ye Changkong!
"Ding Ling Dong played an important role in the incident, too. We can conclude that they have all been bewitched by Blood Devil Li Yao!"
Lu Zui opened his mouth. He really wanted to ask, "Why didn't you inform me beforehand about such a big operation?"
Before he asked, Guo Chunfeng opened his mouth first. "Director, I have only just cracked the news that Mo Xuan hacked Li Chenxin's crystal processor. After I received the news, I immediately took action without any hesitation so that I could fish up all of them!
"Professor Mo Xuan is an expert in crystal processors. It is very likely that he has performed 'anti-surveillance' on us. It is needless to mention Blood Devil Li Yao. He is a super expert in eavesdropping and peeping!
"If I report it first, it is very likely that they will notice it. At the very least, Blood Devil Li Yao will smell it!"
"But right now, we have taken them down as quickly as possible, and Blood Devil Li Yao knows nothing about it yet!
"It means that they have become the best bait to fish up Blood Devil Li Yao again!"
Lu Zui was silent for a long time. His computational ability soared as he deduced the different trends of the whole incident.
However, since Elder Nether Spring was captured, he had been working hard and exhausting too many brain cells to plan the scheme. He had not had a good rest for months.
Everything had been settled in the past few days. Last night, when he was about to rest and recover his brain power, he was disrupted by the news that Li Yao had broken out of the siege!
Exhausted, he was somewhat in a trance when faced with the unexpected changes.
"Director!"
On the other side of the light beam, Guo Chunfeng gritted his teeth with fury all over his face. "I am the chief commander of the operation to capture Blood Devil Li Yao, but he has escaped time and time again. He has even caused tremendous damage. It is all my fault. You can punish me however you want!
"However, director, please give me another chance! I will use this head to make a military order. This time, he will not be able to escape unless he steps over my dead body first! "
"This is my action plan. Please take a look, director!"
Guo Chunfeng sent the action plan over through the Spiritual Nexus.
Lu Zui read it carefully for a long time and deduced every detail several times. He then raised his head and looked at Guo Chunfeng, who was as determined as ever on the light beam. Unable to find anything wrong in the collision of their eyes, he nodded in the end.
"Alright. Let's do it according to your plan. But remember …"
Lu Zui lowered his voice, mixed with intense killing intent. "Blood Devil Li Yao is extremely dangerous. In case he bewilders other people with unpredictable secret arts and harms more innocent compatriots, kill him the moment he is found!"
"Understood!"
Guo Chunfeng sneered and said brutally, "There is no need to give such evil people a chance to speak!"
Turning off the light beam, Lu Zui stared at the darkness and was silent for a long time.
Lu Feng, his foster son, stepped forward and asked in a low voice, "Father, why don't you get Ding Ling Dong and Professor Mo Xuan from Guo Chunfeng?"
"How?"
Lu Zui asked back. "Guo Chunfeng is the supervisor of the first division. For more than ten years, all the capture operations in the frontline have been under his direct command. This time is no exception. He is the chief commander, too!
"There has to be a good reason to ask for the captives from him."
"Yes. We can say that Ding Ling Dong is a Child of the Nether World, but Ding Ling Dong is not the key point at all. The key point is Professor Mo Xuan, who can crack the Jade Crystal Disc!
"Professor Mo Xuan is more than a hundred years old this year, and he has been in the Flying Star Sector for the past ten years. There is no way that he is a Child of the Nether World!
"Right now, Guo Chunfeng has found evidence that Professor Mo Xuan is in cahoots with Blood Devil Li Yao. Professor Mo Xuan and the rest of them are the key to fishing out Blood Devil Li Yao. Guo Chunfeng will certainly keep a close eye on Professor Mo Xuan and the rest of them. Why should we ask for the captives?
"Of course, we can ask for the captives by force, but Guo Chunfeng will certainly be suspicious. Won't we be making a fool of ourselves?
"Guo Chunfeng is Jin Dan, the strongest expert in the Federation. If he is suspicious, the trouble he will cause will be no less than Li Yao's!
"We have lost two Yuanying. Dealing with Li Yao and Guo Chunfeng at the same time? The price is too high. It is too risky! "
Lu Zengfeng thought for a moment and realized that it made sense. He frowned and said, "In fact, we should've made it clear to Guo Chunfeng and recruited him into the organization! His parents were both killed in the beast tide outbreak. His grudge against the demon race is as deep as the ocean. He will certainly support us! "
"That won't be necessary."
Lu Zui said, "I've worked in the Secret Sword Bureau for almost two hundred years. Guo Chunfeng is perhaps the most promising and most suitable person for the job that I've ever seen. A year ago, he was already an indispensable commander in the frontline of the Secret Sword Bureau. If we had made it clear to him and he was unwilling to join us, he would've been a problem that might have been even more troublesome than Li Yao!
"It was not difficult to get rid of him, but it was very difficult to find a commander in the frontline who could replace him. In this job, fists and sabers are not the only things that matter. Brains matter!
"Therefore, I tested him several times and gave up after I failed to find out his real attitude.
"After all, he did an excellent job when we knew nothing about him. With that in mind, why should we add an unstable factor?"
Lu Zui sent Guo Chunfeng's action plan to Lu Feng's crystal processor.
Lu Feng glanced at it and said, "There is a certain chance of success."
"The odds of success are very high."
Lu Zui said. "Right now, the leadership of the Tian Yuan Realm has learned that Li Yao heavily wounded Ye Changkong, which further confirms his identity as the Blood Devil. All the Yuanying experts are on high alert and will not give him a chance to approach them easily. How can he persuade them without any proof?
"He will have to provide solid proof, which is the Jade Crystal Disc that stores all of Elder Nether Spring's memories.
"But the Jade Crystal Disc is locked by a barrier."
"Few people can crack the Jade Crystal Disc. Most of them are under our control. He can only go to Professor Mo Xuan! Also, he cannot delay it for long. In a few more days, the Union Army will march into the Blood Demon Sector!
"Therefore, in the next few days, or even today, he will certainly return to the capital city and look for Professor Mo Xuan!
"Since he does not know that Professor Mo Xuan has been captured, it is very likely that he will fall into Guo Chunfeng's trap!"
Lu Feng nodded. "Then, are we just going to wait for Guo Chunfeng's operation to succeed?"
"Of course not!"
Lu Zui narrowed his eyes and said, "Our hunting team will still be deployed to make sure that Li Yao is killed the moment he shows up!
"More importantly, the Secret Sword Agents around Guo Chunfeng will take action, too, to make sure that Guo Chunfeng does not grow suspicious about the whole thing!
"Right. Prepare all the proofs that prove that Guo Chunfeng is Abyss!
"He is a talent. I do not have the heart to destroy him. It will be best if everything goes according to plan. Otherwise …
"We will have to put the big hat of Abyss on his head!"
…
In the command center of the Demon Execution Division, the headquarters of the Secret Sword Bureau was the headquarters of the operation to capture Blood Devil Li Yao.
Dozens of meters below the command center, in a secret chamber, Ding Ling Dong, Professor Mo Xuan, and Xie Anan, who were tightly controlled by barriers, were struggling hard, but they could do nothing except trigger dazzling electric arcs.
"Shua!"
The alloy gate that was several meters thick slid open. Guo Chunfeng strode in and sat on the metal chair opposite them, looking at them casually as if he were a victor.
"Humph!"
Ding Ling Dong suddenly spat right in Guo Chunfeng's face. "You dog!"
Emotionlessly, Guo Chunfeng took out a dirty handkerchief from his pocket and wiped off the saliva unhurriedly. Then, he took out the glass cup that was riddled with cracks and sipped the tea. He narrowed his eyes and savored the taste carefully.
The cheapest tea leaves were like the 'Gold Leaf', which was worth tens of thousands of dollars, in his mouth.
