Chapter 825: Grandpa and Grandson! Guaranteed Safety!
Qin Yu Zhou looked at Ji Huai, puzzled.
"I didn't board the Spaceship; I was robbed outside the Spaceship."
Ji Huai was silent for a moment, then slowly stood up.
Cai Yan noticed his solemn expression and asked, "Did something go wrong?"
"It seems Liu Pangzi is already dead," Ji Huai said.
"What will happen?"
"Su Yang has probably already guessed my Innate Talent."
"So what?"
Ji Huai gazed at the night sky and said slowly, "That proves he has already figured out our plan."
Zuo Hang listened and felt something was off, "Then what do we do?"
Ji Huai vaguely felt that the person he had spoken with via Walkie-talkie not long ago was also Su Yang!
Even if not, perhaps their conversation was fully overheard.
And also the images displayed on the Radar!
"That slut Su Qi might not be on the Spaceship; if she is, we can only adopt Plan B," Ji Huai said.
Zuo Hang and Cai Yan exchanged glances and nodded.
Qin Yu Zhou was stunned by what he heard; he completely didn't understand what Ji Huai was saying.
Liu Pangzi didn't return last night.
Wasn't he dead?
Did Ji Huai go schizophrenic?
"Speed up and return to the Spaceship; we can't delay any longer. Both of you must arrive safely, no room for error!" Ji Huai said.
"What about him?" Zuo Hang asked, pointing at Qin Yu Zhou.
Ji Huai stared for a moment, then said, "Take him; he's still useful."
Qin Yu Zhou thought internally that things were bad, and as soon as he stood up, Zuo Hang pressed him down hard.
"Don't rush; we'll escort you back," Zuo Hang said with a toothy grin.
Qin Yu Zhou shivered; he wondered why he was so unlucky.
The group slowly descended the stairs.
Along the way, Ji Huai asked, "Has Zhao Ge returned?"
Cai Yan replied, "He has returned; he's closely watching your movements and has sent people to gather information many times."
Ji Huai was not surprised by the news.
This plan is especially important; it's the key step determining whether they can embark on the New Era.
Yue Zhao stared at Su Yang for a long time, and even at great cost brought Jiang Chengyu over.
Years of accumulated Faith Value suddenly hit rock bottom.
Precisely because of that, the people below voiced some complaints.
Opposing voices made up the majority.
Yue Zhao chose to do this regardless of everything.
Since the beginning, he has wanted to break free from the era's Shackle.
The New Era means new life.
The burgeoning vitality inevitably piques the interest of these rotten-wood-like players.
And Ji Huai...
He is precisely the mastermind behind it all.
He planned every step for Yue Zhao.
Including how to loot and then make a big splash in the New Era.
And how to forge ahead on the Golden Road.
One could say that as a mortal minister, he's only a step away from becoming a sarira.
He can talk a thousand words, but never reveals his ambition.
Ji Huai never regarded himself as inferior.
On the contrary, he usually treats Yue Zhao as a partner.
Now this opportunity has fallen into his own hands.
How could he miss it?
And how could he be reckless?
Decades of accumulation naturally require each step to be steady and exquisite.
"He has probably already discovered my idea now; at this moment he's likely investigating who has a Teleport Anchor Point," Ji Huai said.
"What if he planted an Anchor Point on himself?" Zuo Hang asked.
"It's already too late; with you two here, I don't need any more help," Ji Huai said.
At this moment, Ji Huai recalled the trap Zuo Hang mentioned, and asked, "You just said you discovered a trap that you didn't set?"
"Just ahead," Zuo Hang nodded slightly.
Near the destination, Zuo Hang pointed, "In the central area of the platform ahead, there's an invisible trap."
How familiar was this area to Qin Yu Zhou?
Lin Jin was just left here, split into a muggle.
His expression turned oddly strange, and he furtively glanced at Ji Huai's demeanor.
He discovered the opponent was unflustered, still calm and composed.
Seeing this, Qin Yu Zhou quietly let out a sigh of relief.
"Don't be nervous, good, get struck by lightning quickly!" he whispered a prayer.
While covertly casting the Curse, he also readied himself mentally to withdraw at any sign of trouble.
"Any explanation?" Ji Huai asked.
"Xiaodaoer, the person who set up this Trap has no skill at all; I guess the Innate Talent here is a lower-tier substitute for my Innate Talent," Zuo Hang's eyes were full of contempt.
"Forgot what I said? Under no circumstances be careless," Ji Huai sternly admonished.
Zuo Hang put away his disdain and explained: "Traps come in many types; for example, traps set by hunters to catch prey usually have concealment."
"Carve out the bottom, then insert a sharpened branch, covering the surface with leaves or branches."
"Some traps show nothing on the surface, but once stepped on they unleash attacks from all directions."
"The third type..."
"Stop, stop, stop!" Cai Yan couldn't stand it, "I told you to fix this thing, I didn't ask you to give a lecture; what nonsense are you spouting?"
Zuo Hang clicked his tongue and explained: "I say all this to tell you that this guy's skill at making Traps is terrible, not even one ten-thousandth of mine."
Cai Yan seemed to understand, "All that hassle was just stepping on a trap."
"I've known you for so many years; don't I know your half-baked skill?"
"Enough chatter, deal with it quickly."
Zuo Hang stepped forward two steps, both hands simultaneously touching the central point, and said: "My method is simple; just overlay on the existing Trap and it will be solved."
"What's the principle?" Cai Yan showed interest.
"Only Innate Talent can create this kind of Trap, and my Innate Talent is a higher-level replacement for the setter's."
"Think of it as the relationship between grandfather and grandson; so I only need to set another one on top of his, achieving perfect coverage."
As he spoke, the new Trap was already fully set.
Looking at his Masterpiece, Zuo Hang couldn't help but nod in satisfaction.
"What twisted reasoning is that? What if it doesn't work?" Cai Yan furrowed her Brow.
"Just try it and you'll know," Zuo Hang lifted Qin Yu Zhou and shoved him out.
Qin Yu Zhou's eyes widened, stumbling and stepping onto it.
He suddenly held his breath, his heart filled with terror and shock.
"It's over!"
However, the thunder and lightning did not strike; instead everything remained calm.
Cai Yan, seeing this, asked: "Where's the lightning?"
Zuo Hang laughed and said: "Because I disabled the Trap, there will be no reaction at all."
"But you saw the actual situation; if it hadn't been covered, this kid stepping on it would definitely trigger the Trap."
"Therefore, I have succeeded."
Cai Yan, half in doubt, glanced at Ji Huai, as if waiting for his decision.
Ji Huai thought for a moment, then ordered: "Arrange a substitute for me."
"Alright." Cai Yan grasped Ji Huai's Shoulder, and an Illusory Dummy instantly generated.
"Go boldly without worry; whatever problem arises, I will take responsibility," Zuo Hang pounded his Chest in guarantee.
He had seen this kind of little trick many times; handling it was a matter of taking a breath.
Nothing more, just a matter of experience.
And Qin Yu Zhou has also tested it, guaranteeing safety!
Seeing the substitute appear, Ji Huai stepped forward immediately.
However, the instant his Foot landed on the point, a piercing sound rang out.
"Sizzle..."
