Chapter 598: The Traitor of the Sixth Defense Zone

~7 min read 1,304 words

Heertui handed the emerald green string of stones with which Yingzhou had sworn his oath to Yingzhou; upon receiving the string of stones, Yingzhou felt a power within it attempting to connect to his soul, but it could never quite reach it.

Was it because the name he gave was not his real name, or because the Spiritual Power within his body prevented this power from approaching his soul?

For now, this Alien had not discovered that the string of stones was controlling him, but paper cannot wrap up fire forever; it was hard to guarantee that these Alien Races would not have other means to know he was not being controlled.

The green light in Heertui's pupils vanished, and his tone also became normal.

"Councilor Li Feiyu, let's go. I will take you to visit the nearby scenery and, while we're at it, chat about topics concerning the future of Humanity."

Yingzhou felt the string of stones still constantly attempting to connect to his soul and politely declined Heertui's proposal.

"Thank you for your kindness, but I might not have rested well last night and need to rest a while longer now; as for the tour, let's do it later."

"Of course, then I won't disturb your rest."

After leaving the guesthouse where Yingzhou was staying, Heertui immediately reported his progress to the White-robed Bishop.

"Bishop, after consuming the Long-jointed Centipede broth, that Li Feiyu successfully completed the oath under my guidance.

Please look, this is the Rune Stone that controls Li Feiyu's soul."

As he spoke, Heertui pulled a larger stone block from his bosom, which also had the name Li Feiyu carved upon it.

At this moment, the characters for Li Feiyu carved on the Rune Stone were dim and lusterless, causing the confident-looking Heertui to freeze.

"Eh? Strange? It should have already connected to Li Feiyu's soul, why is there no display?"

Heertui hurriedly patted the Rune Stone in his hand, and only then did he see the three characters "Li Feiyu" on the Rune Stone gradually light up.

"Perhaps his soul struggled for a while, which is why the connection failed at first."

The White-robed Bishop looked at the Rune Stone, which was gradually glowing with emerald green light, and his previously gloomy face returned to normal.

"Very good. While letting Li Feiyu lower his guard these next few days, deepen the obsession in his heart; only then can we better control him and finally make him completely our Puppet!

I hope that the failed case of Ji Bu only happens once; you understand what I mean, right?"

Heertui immediately guaranteed it, saying.

"Rest assured, Bishop. This time, Li Feiyu has come to the Sixth Defense Zone, and in his daily food, there will be energy added to disturb the other party's mind."

"Hmm, do not let me down."

Just then, a Hou warrior walked into the two men's room, bowed, and saluted.

"Bishop, Lord Heertui, that Li Feiyu has walked out of his residence and is wandering around."

Hearing this news, the White-robed Bishop looked at Heertui and reminded him.

"Last night, this Li Feiyu was still very suspicious; even with the Long-jointed Centipede broth, he made others consume it before he dared to take it himself. Do not do anything that would make him suspicious."

"Understood, Bishop."

Near the Sixth Defense Zone Inner City Airport.

After walking out of the guesthouse, Yingzhou began to search and look around at the range where the Alien Race had disguised their structures as Human buildings.

Just as Yingzhou walked past a block, he suddenly discovered he was already very close to the Green Energy Curtain, and outside the Green Energy Curtain were buildings growing all sorts of flesh and blood.

Standing before the rusted airport fence, the asphalt ground beneath his feet cracked into spiderweb-like patterns.

Looking through the light curtain, those flesh-and-blood buildings in the Outer City were writhing—dark red tumors merged with Human architecture, and the blue veins protruding on their surfaces contracted rhythmically.

"Councilor Li Feiyu, why are you here?"

Hearing a steady voice from behind, Yingzhou dispersed his Spiritual Power and turned to look.

He discovered it was Chen Kundong, who had brought him to the Sixth Defense Zone yesterday; at this time, Chen Kundong had already changed his formal attire into casual wear.

He was also holding a vegetable resembling a cucumber in his hand, which he was chewing on incessantly.

"I've rested well and thought I'd come out for a stroll to see the situation in the Sixth Defense Zone. By the way, how come I've noticed there aren't many people around here? Have they all gone to work?"

Hearing Yingzhou's reply, Chen Kundong took another bite of the cucumber and said.

"That's right, the threat of the Alien Race makes us produce at all times; only in this way can we avoid the Sixth Defense Zone from being conquered."

Chen Kundong grinned, and a green light identical to Heertui's flashed deep within his pupils.

"But we have the Bishop's grace."

Chen Kundong lifted his collar, revealing the emerald green string of stones hanging on his chest, with the three characters "Chen Kundong" carved on every Stone.

"Bishop?"

Yingzhou stepped back half a step unobtrusively, also revealing the emerald green string of stones carved with "Li Feiyu," his military boots bumping against a Stone by his feet.

"What is that?"

"You still don't know? That is the great existence who saved our Sixth Defense Zone from fire and water. If not for his arrival, I think the Sixth Defense Zone would have also been conquered by the Alien Race."

Upon seeing the emerald green string of stones on Yingzhou, Chen Kundong spoke without any avoidance.

Bishop? Is that the leader of the Alien Race? Arrival? After seeing the string of stones in my hand, this Chen Kundong began to mention that Bishop without any concealment.

Does he think I have already become their companion? Perhaps he knows the reason for the fall of the Sixth Defense Zone; I should fish for more intelligence!

Yingzhou smiled, nodded, and agreed.

"That truly is a great existence; I really hope to be able to meet him soon!"

"You think so too, don't you!"

Hearing Yingzhou's words of agreement, Chen Kundong walked forward excitedly a few steps.

This made Yingzhou's body tense; as long as Chen Kundong had any intention of attacking him, he would not sit idly by and wait for death.

Yingzhou's pupils turned pale gold as he looked at Chen Kundong, discovering that beneath the green energy of the other party, he was a Human!

He was not an Alien! He was a traitor bewitched by the Alien Race!

Discovering that Chen Kundong was not an Alien like Heertui, the reason for Chen Kundong becoming a traitor was very likely related to the Sixth Defense Zone!

"Want to try some?"

Chen Kundong pulled a green fruit from his pocket and handed it to Yingzhou.

"It was just watered with the Holy Spring this morning; the taste is quite good!"

Just as Yingzhou was about to take the green fruit, a voice came from afar.

"Councilor Li Feiyu! I have been looking for you!"

Heertui's voice came from the street corner, and he was seen walking quickly from the corner, his signature smile making Yingzhou feel a chill inside.

Just as Heertui hurried over, Yingzhou noticed the tumor-like buildings outside the Green Energy Curtain suddenly contracting violently.

He pretended to adjust his cuffs, gathering Spiritual Power at his fingertips: "Mr. Chen Kundong is just introducing me to the fruit watered by the Holy Spring."

"If Councilor Li Feiyu is interested in this, I can have it sent to your guesthouse later; for now, let us go attend the meeting regarding the future of the Human race."
