Lin Huang browsed through the information on the network. It was almost nightfall on Planet Reach.
He thought for a moment and dialed Zang Tian's number.
Lin Huang chuckled when he heard the notification being hung up in less than half a second.
This meant that Zang Tian was still alive.
If the communicator sensed the host's death, it would automatically lock itself and shut down in less than a minute. If he called, he would receive a notification saying, "The number you've dialed cannot be reached."
"He hung up in such a hurry …" Lin Huang raised his brow. "This means that the investigator is still on Death's Scythe."
After confirming this, Lin Huang wrote another message and sent it over.
"If an investigator arrives on Death's Scythe and asks any questions, just answer them truthfully. Don't cover for me. If they want my contact, just give them my number. You won't be able to handle the Raiders. Don't fight them head-on, leave them to me … "
…
Zang Tian only opened the communication page and glanced at it before hanging up immediately.
Xue Wuya and the rest who were standing aside saw the caller's name — Xiu Mu!
The atmosphere in the room became even more solemn.
At this moment, a voice suddenly rang out in front of them. "Why aren't you picking up?"
The red-haired man had appeared in front of them out of nowhere, smiling as he blocked the way of Zang Tian and the rest.
Almost at the same time, two figures appeared behind the Blood Sickle members. They were the two lackeys who had not spoken in the meeting room earlier.
Zang Tian and the Blood Sickle members looked extremely grim.
However, at this moment, Zang Tian's ring vibrated again.
This time, the vibration was lighter, and it only rang once. Clearly, it was a notification for a short message.
The red-haired man smiled at Zang Tian and said, "Open it and take a look. Who knows, it might not be Lin Huang?"
Zang Tian lowered his head and did not move.
He knew that he would die if he attacked. It was even more impossible to escape.
"Please open your communication page …" The red-haired man smiled at Zang Tian. His tone was still gentle. "This is not a suggestion."
Zang Tian knew that if he didn't do it, he would die!
He raised his stiff arm and opened the communication page.
A notification box with a new message popped up.
The sender was astonishingly one word — Rotten Wood!
The entire corridor fell into silence.
Seeing the sender's name, the few Blood Sickle members' faces turned ashen.
Even Zang Tian swallowed his saliva with some difficulty.
He quickly thought of a countermeasure in his mind, but it was to no avail.
"Oh, what a coincidence! Isn't this the friend we're looking for? "The red-haired man smiled as he walked to Zang Tian's side and put his arm around his shoulder. "What are you waiting for? Open it and see what he said. Let's take a look together. "
Feeling the heaviness on his shoulder, Zang Tian had no choice but to open the message.
The moment the message popped up, everyone's eyes were on it.
The message was only a few lines, but almost everyone read it in an instant.
After reading the message, Zang Tian's mind was a mess. Now that things had come to this, he had no idea what to do next.
The red-haired man next to him smiled and patted his shoulder. "This kid is quite loyal. He offered to sell him out."
"I think that's a good suggestion. What do you guys think?" The red-haired man tilted his head and looked at Zang Tian.
Zang Tian lowered his head expressionlessly and did not respond.
Clearly, he was still unwilling to sell out Lin Huang even though things had come to this.
Seeing that Zang Tian was not saying anything, the red-haired man continued to speak with a smile.
"Mr. Zang Tian, Rotten Wood has already sent you a message. Wouldn't it be impolite if you don't reply?"
He paused and shook his head. "I think it's better to call him back directly. I think it's more polite to talk via video."
Zang Tian still did not move.
He expressed his resistance with silence.
But suddenly, he felt as if he had lost control of his body.
His right hand automatically lifted up and stretched out his finger to press the contact button above the short message on the communication projection. He then pressed the video request skillfully …
"You …" Zang Tian looked at the red-haired man next to him in horror.
"Since you don't want to betray your friend, I have to help you." The red-haired man's tone was still gentle.
…
"Huh? He called back? Did he find a safe place to talk? "
Seeing that Zang Tian had suddenly sent a video request on the communication device, Lin Huang did not think too much about it and immediately answered.
Then he saw the projection of Zang Tian and another person appear in front of him at the same time.
A red-haired man put his arm around Zang Tian's shoulder and behaved very intimately.
But Lin Huang saw the unnatural expression on Zang Tian's face at a glance and instantly guessed the identity of the red-haired man.
"If I'm not wrong, you should be the Raider investigator, right?"
"Impressive, Mr. Lin! You actually guessed my identity at a glance. "The red-haired man gave him a thumbs-up." As expected of the man who destroyed our entire branch. "
"Let's have a chat." Lin Huang smiled calmly.
The red-haired man clearly did not expect Lin Huang to be so calm, but he nodded immediately. "Let's have a chat, then."
"How many of you are here this time? Can you tell me? "Lin Huang asked with a smile, his tone sounding like he was just messing around with a friend.
"Are you scouting the enemy?" The red-haired man asked with a smile.
"I just want to make sure first in case any fish slip through the net."
Lin Huang's answer stunned the red-haired man for a moment. Clearly, he did not expect him to give such an answer. He then laughed. "I really didn't expect you to be such an interesting person. Since you're so interesting, I can answer this question. "
"There are a total of nine of us here this time. Three of us are high Lords, and six are intermediate Lords."
The red-haired man kept staring at Lin Huang as he said this, as if he wanted to see the shock on his face. Unfortunately, Lin Huang did not show any signs of surprise.
"That's about what I expected." Lin Huang nodded with a smile.
However, Zang Tian could hardly keep his cool. He had guessed that the red-haired man was a high Lord, but he did not expect that there would be two other high Lords.
Behind Zang Tian, the group of Blood Sickle members looked even more shocked. They knew that the red-haired man and the rest were very powerful, but they had never expected that there would be high Lords coming.
"You asked me a question earlier, so I'll ask you a question now. After all, it's only fair this way, "the red-haired man said to Lin Huang with a smile.
"Sure, ask away." Lin Huang nodded with a smile.
"What I want to ask is …" The red-haired man flashed a ferocious grin. "Where are you now?"
Zang Tian's pupils contracted slightly as soon as the question was asked.
The rest of them also stared at Lin Huang's video projection.
