Chapter 594: Each Harboring Their Own Schemes

~7 min read 1,250 words

"Huh? What kind of ghost task is this? Isn't this clearly telling me that if I want to complete Task 2, I have to put Task 1 aside for now? Investigate? It's already been overrun by the Alien Race, what is there to investigate?"

Yingzhou, upon seeing this task, immediately complained, but for the sake of the task reward, he would do his best.

After going to the Sixth Defense Zone, he would decide whether to complete it based on the situation; if the other side started fighting the moment he landed, he would have no choice but to abandon Task 2.

At this moment, Yingzhou felt a wave of Spiritual Power Fluctuation in the sky. He looked up and discovered a Transport Aircraft appearing above the Landing Pad, slowly descending.

Although this Transport Aircraft seemed to have used some kind of camouflage, it still made Yingzhou feel a trace of strange energy, a feeling that he had encountered this kind of energy before.

As the Transport Aircraft slowly opened, a man wearing a black formal suit walked out. After looking around, he spoke to Yingzhou, who had stepped forward to shake his hand and was a head shorter than him.

"Hello, I am Chen Kundong, a Councilor of the Sixth Defense Zone."

"Li Feiyu, a newly promoted Councilor of the Ninth Defense Zone."

Chen Kundong looked at the ruins of the Inner City and curiously asked Yingzhou.

"Councilor Li Feiyu, what exactly happened in your Inner City? How did it become like this?"

Yingzhou revealed a bitter smile and complained to Chen Kundong.

"Sigh, we suffered an attack by the Demon Race some time ago. As the core area of the Ninth Defense Zone, the Inner City became the main target of the Demon attack.

Although we eventually destroyed the portal established by the Demon Race, we also suffered heavy losses."

Chen Kundong looked at the area outside the Inner City Landing Pad that had been completely razed into a crater, and he had no doubts about what Li Feiyu had said.

Presumably, the Ninth Defense Zone had also suffered a bitter battle before repelling the Demons.

"But didn't you say before that you had already bordered and joined up with the territory of the Fourth Defense Zone? How could the Inner City be attacked by Demons?"

Seeing that this Chen Kundong was still suspicious, Yingzhou continued to complain.

"Sigh, I didn't expect that there would be traitors in the Ninth Defense Zone. They defected to the Demon Race and, while the vast majority of our forces were fighting the Zerg outside, they let the Demons slaughter the Ninth Defense Zone!

Damn it! If only we hadn't been so anxious! We wouldn't have caused such a tragedy!"

Chen Kundong looked at the grief-stricken Yingzhou, silently patted Yingzhou's shoulder, and slowly spoke.

"Sorry, we were unable to provide you with help under those circumstances."

Yingzhou sadly wiped away the tears he had struggled to squeeze out and pretended to be strong as he said.

"It's nothing. You were also fighting the Alien Race and couldn't spare any hands; we can understand that. But now, we must unite so that we can resist the Alien Race's offensive and preserve the last spark for Human Civilization!"

Chen Kundong looked Yingzhou up and down, then asked.

"Then after the Demon invasion, what is the situation in the Ninth Defense Zone now?"

"Sigh, the previous Councilors have basically all died. As a newly appointed Councilor, I am very worried about the future of the Ninth Defense Zone. The Fourth Defense Zone is having trouble even protecting itself now.

That is why I thought of the Sixth Defense Zone. At least you have never requested support in your battles against the Alien Race, which gives us hope!

No matter what the price is! I do not want Human Civilization to perish!"

Chen Kundong looked at the solemn-faced Yingzhou and began to calculate in his heart how to turn this Li Feiyu into a Puppet to control the Ninth Defense Zone after arriving at the Sixth Defense Zone.

This Li Feiyu, although his strength did not seem very strong, had a very clear goal. Having a goal meant he could be used as a breakthrough point to turn him into a Puppet.

Thinking of this, Chen Kundong put on a compassionate expression and said.

"I came here this time to solve these problems. Let's set off once the Transport Aircraft has replenished its energy."

Yingzhou slowly nodded and replied.

"Mm, I can't wait!"

The two looked at each other and smiled, each harboring their own schemes as they boarded the Transport Aircraft.

Yingzhou calculated how he should complete Task 2.

Chen Kundong, on the other hand, thought about how to turn Li Feiyu into a controllable Puppet.

Sixth Defense Zone Inner City Landing Pad.

After learning the news that the Transport Aircraft had arrived at the Ninth Defense Zone, Herui began to prepare for the matters after the Transport Aircraft returned.

"Lord Herui, intelligence from the Ninth Defense Zone says that the Ninth Defense Zone suffered an attack by the Demon Race some time ago and suffered heavy losses."

A Hou warrior ran to Herui at this time, saluted respectfully, and reported the latest news.

"I didn't expect the Ninth Defense Zone to have resisted the Demon invasion under those circumstances. Was there any mention of that Human named Yingzhou?"

The Hou warrior pondered for a few seconds, then shook his head and said.

"No... there was no mention of news regarding Yingzhou."

Upon hearing this news, Herui frowned and muttered to himself in confusion.

"Strange, how could there be no news about that Yingzhou? According to the strength that Yingzhou displayed, there shouldn't be no news about him, right? Could it be that he is already dead?"

Looking at the disguised Human Airport and the restored surrounding buildings, Herui could only suppress this thought for now.

The Demon Race's invasion was resisted by the Ninth Defense Zone, so they must have suffered heavy losses; perhaps that Human named Yingzhou died at the hands of the Demons.

"Warriors! Begin the disguise!"

Herui's voice reached the ears of every Hou warrior preparing to disguise themselves. Upon hearing Herui's order, green energy began to emerge around these Hou warriors.

As the green energy wrapped around the Hou warriors, their bodies began to change. When the green energy disappeared, these Hou warriors, who had originally looked somewhat deformed, transformed into the appearance of Humans.

Herui injected the green energy into the energy network near the airport, causing the buildings in the distance that were connected to flesh and blood to begin to change. As the green energy covered the flesh-and-blood buildings, a scene of Human buildings resembling a curtain obscured the flesh-and-blood buildings.

In this way, even if one looked into the distance from the airport, there would be no flaws.

Herui was very satisfied with his masterpiece. Looking at the Human Airport that had returned to its original appearance, he whispered to himself.

"This way, when the people from the Ninth Defense Zone come, they won't raise their guard, and we can slowly break through their psychological defenses."

A handsome man wearing a white robe walked up to Herui, looked at the disguised Human Airport, nodded with satisfaction, and said.

"Not bad. You should hurry up and disguise yourself too. In a few more hours, the people from the Ninth Defense Zone will be here!"

"Yes! Lord Bishop!"
