In the Dark-star stronghold, Ovenn lay in the middle of the room with three doppelgangers tied together in the corner.
"There are a total of five Ovenn, four doppelgangers and one main body," Sherman said with a deep voice. "The people of Godora saved one doppelganger, so the main body is him. He hid very well, and Sinesa was able to read his mind. Following the doppelganger's thoughts, she searched every inch of the area and found the traitor's main body in a very secretive place."
The tall and skinny man called Sinesa nodded. He was also a Grade B Super in the hunting team, a Psychic. His doppelgangers were exactly the same as his main body, and even their mental waves were the same, making it impossible for others to tell them apart. However, this also became a clue for them to track him down.
Anur smiled with satisfaction. "Very good, your efficiency has made the organization proud. With this, our operation can end early. Ashes, do it."
Ashes nodded, and with a lift of his finger, Ovenn's main body turned into a pile of dust. He died quietly and silently.
Everyone was expressionless. They were already used to the feeling of killing enemies for the organization.
Just as they were about to pack up and retreat, everyone's movements suddenly froze. Their eyes were filled with shock as they slowly looked toward the corner.
They saw that the three doppelgangers of Ovenn were still there, and their faces that were filled with blood had a mocking expression.
"The main body is dead, but why haven't the doppelgangers disappeared?" Anur's expression changed, and he looked at the pile of dust on the ground. "Could it be that it's not the main body?"
"Hahahahaha …" The three doppelgangers burst out laughing, and they were out of breath.
This laughter made the Dark-star warriors furious. They had worked so hard for so long, but they had been played?
Anur's face twitched, and he yelled, "Kill them all, one of them must be the main body!"
Shua shua shua …
The three doppelgangers turned into ashes one after another. The first two had died, but the other doppelgangers were still fine. When the third Ovenn died, Dark-star couldn't be sure if the last one was the real body, but they had already expected it.
"The Ovenn in Godora's hands is the real body. He is so daring to use his real body as a doppelganger to mislead us and take the risk to accept Nagojin's protection. He tricked us! If I'd caught him sooner, he'd be dead! "Sherman was furious.
Bang!
The more Sherman thought about it, the angrier he got. He felt that his companions were looking at him with eyes full of blame (in fact, they weren't), so he couldn't help but smash his fist on the chair (because he couldn't reach the table).
Anur's face was gloomy. "If the four doppelgangers die at the same time, Ovenn will also be injured. There's no time to lose. Everyone, move out and kill the real body hiding in Nagojin!"
The four doppelgangers had been seen through, so they had locked onto their target. As long as they killed the real Ovenn, the mission would be completed successfully. Anur didn't want to waste any time. He was prepared to lead everyone and attack with lightning speed to end this mission!
…
After Han Xiao received the news, he rushed back to the stronghold with the two of them. He saw that everyone had a grim expression on their faces. He walked all the way to the meeting room, where the main combat power was gathered. He saw Ovenn sitting at the end of the table and was stunned.
Didn't they say that the real body had been captured? According to Dark-star's character, they would have killed the real body. However, Ovenn was still alive, and the mission hadn't failed. In an instant, Han Xiao guessed the truth and shook his head helplessly.
"You should have told us earlier that you were the real body."
"Sorry, I was afraid that the news would leak out. Only by keeping the information to myself would there be no risk of the enemy knowing about it. Cough cough …"
Ovenn covered his mouth and coughed. Blood spurted out from between his fingers, leaving bright red spots on the table. His eyes were lifeless, and his face was sickly. The senses of the doppelgangers were connected to him. The death of the four doppelgangers in a short period of time had dealt a heavy blow to the real body. He was in a very bad state right now.
He secretly took a risk and replaced the doppelgangers with his real body to receive the protection of Nagojin and the others. He decided to wait and see. It was because the 'real body' that Dark-star was searching for was actually his doppelgangers that he had the confidence to do so. He didn't like to be passive. Instead of hiding and praying that Dark-star wouldn't find him, he would rather be protected. It would be safer.
"However, Dark-star has already seen through my little trick. Their next move will definitely be to take the initiative to kill me," Ovenn said weakly. "I can only rely on you guys to protect me. Please."
Han Xiao's eyes flashed. This mission was indeed not easy to complete. The official process should be to protect Ovenn from Dark-star's pursuit and continue to escape. However, it was impossible to fight forever. He guessed that as long as they delayed the enemy and waited for Ovenn to create another doppelganger, they would be able to confuse the enemy again and delay the arrival of Godora's reinforcements.
He had never heard of Ovenn's name in his previous life. It should be because he had died in the battle of Noriose and was successfully killed by Dark-star. That was indeed the case. Other than Anur and the other ground forces chasing after him, there would definitely be a large number of Dark-star fleets hiding in outer space. To Ovenn, this was a desperate situation where he could only struggle at death's door.
There were fleets lying in ambush in outer space. If he left in a spaceship, he would be surrounded and killed. He had to take advantage of the short moment before Dark-star fleets attacked to escape. It was almost impossible, and the requirements for the spaceship's performance were extremely high.
However, there was a spaceship that could accomplish this difficult task.
Risda's Blacklight Stealth!
It only needed a few microseconds of warm-up to enter hyperdrive. Furthermore, it was equipped with anti-capture and anti-shielding devices. This high-level reconnaissance spaceship produced by the Radiant Federation could pass through most of the danger zones and escape Dark-star's ambush.
"If I help Ovenn survive, what will happen in the future?" Han Xiao frowned. He suddenly thought of the S-rank mission [Bloodline] on his interface. He had a feeling that Ovenn could be a helpful factor in this mission.
Although he still had a [Mission Completion Card] in his hands, it would only give him the lowest reward. For such a high-level mission, he naturally had to try his best to raise the rating. It was not easy to accept a high-level mission, and using a Mission Completion Card would be too wasteful. He was prepared to keep this Mission Completion Card as a backup in case he encountered any troublesome missions …
"Dark-star will not hesitate. They will be here very soon." Han Xiao's tone was stern. He slapped the table and signaled for everyone to quiet down. "We don't have much time to prepare. Listen, I have a plan that can directly send Ovenn out of Noriose."
Everyone was shocked upon hearing this.
"We have to split into two groups. Nagojin, I, and the majority of the people will stay behind to delay the pursuers. Aroshia will bring Ovenn to find a Teleportation Mage and get him to send you guys to the port quickly. Not only will this save time, but it will also shake off the pursuers. After that, you will go find Risda and bring Ovenn out of Noriose."
Han Xiao's face was solemn. The plan sounded simple, but it was extremely risky. Dark-star's pursuers had two Calamity Grade Supers and Ashes, who could cover a large area. It was truly terrifying. The most important thing was that they did not have much time to prepare, so everything could only be carried out in a hurry.
Nagojin was the only Grade A on their side, and he could attract the firepower and restrain Ashes, making him unable to kill anyone else. Fortunately, they had injured Ashes a few days ago, which would more or less affect his combat ability. However, even so, dealing with two Calamity Grade Supers at the same time was already beyond their limits. Han Xiao knew that even with himself, they would not be able to deal with Anur and Ashes without any preparation.
Thus, there was only one choice, which was to split up the battlefield and split up the enemy. Thus, they had to let the enemy know that Ovenn was escaping. Only then would Dark-star be able to split their forces and deal with them while sending people to chase after Ovenn. It was equivalent to splitting the risk … but it was still very risky.
However, they could only take the risk now.
Time was of the essence, and Han Xiao quickly distributed the tasks. Everyone was very nervous and moved as fast as possible.
After less than ten minutes of preparation, a loud sound suddenly sounded.
Boom!
A strong wind pressure hit the entire building, and everyone was blown away by the shockwave. However, they were already mentally prepared and jumped out, landing on the street and raising circles of dust.
In midair, the transformed Anur was looking down at everyone with wind pressure around his body. Ember was also in midair, stepping on a hundred-meter-long black tornado of carbon particles. The other DarkStar warriors were closing in from the ground, and they were filled with killing intent.
"The attack came so quickly."
Han Xiao's expression was solemn. Nagojin was beside him, and his body was covered in flames. He had entered battle mode, and the surrounding mercenaries were all on alert. Many of them had nervous expressions on their faces. Not everyone could remain calm in front of an enemy that was far stronger than them.
The strong pressure was like the falling of the sky, causing everyone's heart to tighten as if a heavy stone was pressing down on them.
The shockwave from the collapse of the building swept up a lot of dust, and the movement was extremely loud. It once again attracted many onlookers to stop and look at them with a pained expression.
It can't be, again?
