At ten o 'clock in the morning, Li Yao entered the capital city for the second time with a batch of veterans who had taken short-distance shuttles from nearby cities.
Ever since the big explosion, the Secret Sword Bureau's main task in the capital city was to search for suspicious targets across the city. Also, a lot of people had been sent to the underground to track him down. The inspection on the people entering the capital city from the outside was much more lax.
Besides, there were millions of veterans who had come to the capital city from various places. Many of them had shocking scars on their faces. They were wearing crystal cameras or natural rubber masks, which made them almost unrecognizable. It was difficult to compare their appearances with the information in the database.
For the old, experienced, bad-tempered men who were all wearing almost ten medals and singing battle hymns, it was unrealistic to ask them to stop time and time again for thorough inspection.
Therefore, Li Yao did not run into too many obstacles this time. He snuck into the capital city, which was unguarded on the outside.
On his way, looking at the energetic, passionate crowd around him, he almost could not hold back his urge to tell the truth many times.
However, he was still short of the most critical evidence right now.
He did not doubt Lu Zui's madness at all. He believed that as long as Lu Zui was given a chance, Lu Zui would not hesitate to kill another ten thousand, fifty thousand, or even a hundred thousand innocent people in order to kill him!
The picture of the battle where I heavily wounded Ye Changkong must've been seen by all the Yuanying in the Federation. I do not have any proof that Ye Changkong is a member of the Patriots Partnership. So, it will be difficult to explain the whole thing.
Right now, all the Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators consider me to be a very dangerous person. The battle-type Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators will certainly not give me a chance to approach them. Should they discover me, they will certainly attack me with full strength without any mercy!
The Jade Crystal Disc is in my hands, but it is locked by barriers. It is impossible for me to find a random crystal processor specialist to crack it. On one hand, I cannot find one. On the other hand, even if I do, they will not believe me!
I can only go to Professor Mo Xuan to crack the Jade Crystal Disc and retrieve all the memories of Elder Nether Spring inside!
"Only with irrefutable evidence can the great scheme of the Patriots Partnership be revealed!"
At the four forks in front of them, two groups of disabled veterans from different cities converged like two mighty rivers. For a moment, they were singing and laughing, bustling with noise and excitement.
Taking advantage of the commotion, Li Yao quietly left the group.
He found a cable, and according to the method he had discussed with Professor Mo Xuan beforehand, he contacted the professor through the spiritual power transmission network.
Li Yao inputted a series of twenty irregular digits into the crystal processor.
Soon, the other side also sent back a series of irregular 20-digit numbers.
This was the confirmation information that he had discussed with Professor Mo Xuan beforehand.
The two of them prepared a total of 100 sets of 200 strings of numbers. Each pair of numbers corresponded to each other, and the two of them memorized each of the 100 strings.
The person who initiated the call first entered a random string of numbers, and the other party had to enter the corresponding numbers to prove their identity.
If the other party inputted the wrong number, it would mean that the other party had been exposed, captured, or even killed.
A hundred strings of numbers, or even a certain change in each string of numbers, could represent different information. In such a way, the most abundant information could be transmitted in the shortest amount of time and with the feeblest spiritual waves.
Li Yao stared at the string of numbers. When he saw the last few subtle changes, his eyelids shivered, and his pupils constricted to the minimum. Then, they suddenly exploded and dyed his eyes black.
Taking a deep breath, he calmed himself down and entered a string of words.
…
In the command center of the Demon Execution Division at the headquarters of the Secret Sword Bureau …
Almost a hundred specialists were gathered here, but the atmosphere was like that of a closed funeral parlor. All the specialists were staring at the words on the light beam with gloomy faces like dead people.
On the light beam, Li Yao said, "Professor, I have something very important to hand you.
"Professor, I have something very important to give you. Let's meet in front of the Red Dream Dragon Mall in Hong 'an District in an hour."
The news almost made all the specialists jump to their feet!
After losing Li Yao's trace for almost two days and two nights, they had finally caught the tail of the 'Blood Devil' again!
"Excellent. He did not notice that Professor Mo Xuan was already under our control!"
Guo Chunfeng wiped his face hard and shook off the greasy sweat on his forehead. He shouted, "Track down the source of the enemy's spiritual waves! Operation Team One will set up ambushes around Red Dream Dragon Mall immediately. It is the center of the business district and the densest place. Be careful! The other operation teams will stay put in case the enemy changes the rendezvous point! Aerial surveillance team, redistribute the computational ability of the crystal processors and analyze everybody around Red Dream Dragon Mall! "
Inside the command center, there was another uproar.
After almost half a month of life-and-death competitions, everybody had been pushed to the limits by the wretched 'Blood Devil'. Many of them had not slept for almost ten days, and their eyes were as red as burning charcoal!
However, the explosions that took place in the Federal Square a few days ago were still stirring their hearts like scorching rods. In order to capture the culprit, everybody burned their soul and gritted their teeth again, holding on in silence!
Very soon, the surveillance of Red Dream Dragon Mall in Hong 'an District was in place.
The crystal camera surveillance center of the capital city also mobilized dozens of mainframe crystal processors to analyze the facial information of everybody within five square kilometers.
But the source of the signal was still not easy to confirm. After all, the point-to-point communication between Li Yao and Professor Mo Xuan was accomplished by changing the intensity of the electric currents in the cables. It was entirely different from tracking the signals of the wireless Spiritual Nexus.
All the information was transmitted in real time to 'Hidden Star', the crystal warship of the Secret Sword Bureau that Lu Zui was piloting in person.
A tough hunting squad made of the members of the Patriots Partnership lunged at the Red Dream Dragon Square like hungry wolves, too. Three snipers in the Core Formation Stage were among the members.
Although they were not as capable as' Death Ray 'Ye Changkong, it was impossible for Li Yao to maintain his capability at the peak state after taking Diwu Jian's' Five Disintegrations of Heavens and Human '. Now that he was heavily wounded, his ability to dodge the snipers was significantly reduced, too.
This time, as long as Li Yao showed up, he would not be able to run away!
Fifty-five minutes later, there were still five minutes to go before the rendezvous.
Outside of the Red Dream Dragon Mall in the Hong 'an District, more than two hundred tough members of the Secret Sword Bureau were mixed in the crowd. Three battle Yuanying, who had been hired as reinforcements, were ambushing not far away, too.
From the sky to the ground, the place was completely surrounded. More than five hundred crystal cameras were scanning the entire area from different angles and sending the pictures back to the headquarters of the Secret Sword Bureau and Hidden Star in real time!
Li Yao did not show up. Instead, he sent a second message to Professor Mo Xuan's point-to-point communicator. "Take the No. 7 underground crystal train immediately and get off at Guanghui Avenue Station in twenty-five minutes. We will meet at the underground crystal train station!"
The command center was rendered speechless.
There were more than thirty underground crystal train lines in the capital city. Guanghui Avenue Station was the junction of nine of them. It was the largest hub of the underground crystal train in the capital city.
It was not hard to imagine that the flow of people in it was ten times that of the Red Dream Dragon Mall!
"Team One, do not retreat or expose yourselves. Continue ambushing. Team Two, Team Three, and Team Four, go to Guanghui Avenue Station!"
Guo Chunfeng was not moved at all, as if he had foreseen that Li Yao would change the rendezvous point. He said unhurriedly, "Continue investigating the source of the enemy's information in case the enemy changes the location of the street again. According to the analysis of the data experts, Guanghui Avenue Station is the most crowded place and the most suitable place for rendezvous and escape. It will be best to set up an ambush in advance!"
A lot of Secret Sword Agents were mobilized. The hunting squad of the Patriots Partnership that was directly under Lu Zui's command could only follow them to Guanghui Avenue Station.
Twenty minutes later, the arrangement of Guanghui Avenue Station was completed.
However, only three minutes later, hardly had an underground crystal train arrived at the station when Li Yao's angry words popped up on the point-to-point communicator.
"You betrayed me!"
All the Secret Sword Agents jumped to their feet.
Guo Chunfeng was as unmoved as a mountain. "Don't be hasty. Stay where you are. Do not panic. This is a test from the enemy. They must be spying in secret. If all the members of the operation team jump out like idiots, we will be screwed!"
There was nothing but silence in the command center. Everybody eyed Guo Chunfeng suspiciously.
Guo Chunfeng did have a point, but what if he was not? Would they not have lost the best opportunity to capture Blood Devil Li Yao?
It must be noted that Blood Devil Li Yao was probably near Guanghui Avenue Station at this moment!
This was the most soul-stirring competition between the hunter and the prey. It was also the time to show the computational ability, analysis ability, and even the willpower of a commander!
Guo Chunfeng crossed his hands and covered his nose. Below his messy hair, a pair of gray eyes that were bloodshot could be seen as he stared at the light beam.
The bulging veins on the back of his hands suggested that he was not as calm as he appeared to be.
Five minutes later, the words on the point-to-point communicator finally lit up the hope of all the Secret Sword Agents. "Alright, professor. There are no enemies around. Take the underground crystal train and return to the Red Dream Dragon Square. Go to the warehouse of shuttles on the seventh floor below ground."
"Hooray!"
At this moment, all the crystal processor specialists and data analysts in the command center could not hold back their excitement anymore. They all jumped to their feet!
Those who were most quick-witted immediately realized the sordidness of Li Yao's move!
Li Yao had intentionally changed the rendezvous point and even pretended that it had been discovered.
By logic, when he changed the rendezvous point, the first team that was ambushing in the Red Dream Dragon Square should have reinforced the Guanghui Avenue Station!
Then, as long as the ambushers moved, it was very likely that Li Yao, who was hiding in the darkness, would notice their loopholes!
Even if they did not move the first time, when Li Yao typed 'you betrayed me', another commander would've been greatly shocked and asked everybody to take action immediately!
Li Yao, who was observing in secret, would've noticed the anomaly and left immediately!
But as it turned out, Guo Chunfeng had completely grasped Li Yao's thoughts. He had held back his troops twice, which finally convinced Li Yao that there were no ambushes near the Red Dream Dragon Square and that he could show up now!
Guo Chunfeng took a long breath in relief. "Alright. It should be the Red Dream Dragon. He won't change anymore. If he does, he will have to send more messages, which will be easy for us to locate.
"All action groups, block the five square kilometers around the Red Dream Dragon Square immediately. The three battle Yuanying, please be prepared, too. This time, he is not going to get away!"
"Understood!"
"Understood!"
"Understood!"
The tough squads of Secret Sword Agents approached the Red Dream Dragon Square without a sound.
The hunting squad directly under Lu Zui's command, including the three snipers in the Core Formation Stage, dashed to the Red Dream Dragon Square again.
Guo Chunfeng struggled to his feet and staggered out, pushing away a Secret Sword Agent who was helping him. "I'm going to the toilet. Can you help me pee?"
Everybody was amused. They all knew how much pressure the seemingly relaxed boss was under. If it were any other person, they would've collapsed a long time ago.
However, in the battle of wisdom and courage against the Blood Devil, it was always their boss who laughed in the end!
In the toilet next to the command center, before the basin, Guo Chunfeng filled the basin with water and soaked his head in it for five seconds.
The sound of flushing and the door opening echoed from the cubicle nearby.
Guo Chunfeng raised his head and narrowed his eyes. He rubbed his wrinkled face hard and saw a pair of standard boots of the Secret Sword Agents, but he did not pay much attention to them.
The owner of the boots walked out and stopped behind him, but there was no sound of the door being opened.
Guo Chunfeng was slightly dazed. He slowly lowered his hands and saw the Secret Sword Agent behind him in the mirror.
Guo Chunfeng remembered that the guy was a Secret Sword Agent whose nickname was' Black Panther '.
