Chapter 756: This bad already? (4/4, please subscribe)

Fang Yue's eyes lit up, his gaze bright.

This is it! This is it!

He slapped his thigh in excitement.

A way out, appearing ahead just like that, completely unprepared!

"Fang Yue, aren't you coming?"

Seeing Fang Yue's strange behavior, Qiu Dugu, who was about to follow and board the plane, was stunned for a moment and asked.

Fang Yue didn't answer Qiu Dugu's words, but raised his head to look straight at Qiu Dugu, and slowly said.

"Qiu Dugu, do you trust me?"

"Of course I trust you, why suddenly ask this? Don't be afraid, this time it's the Alliance's collective operation, the Cheaters have always been under the Alliance's nose, they can't make any waves."

Indeed, the Cheaters can't make any waves, they just wiped us out, and then got killed by the Alliance.

The problem is the Alliance is fine, but we'll be done for!

His face darkened, Fang Yue said: "If you trust me, just tell me directly, where is the Cheater Base!"

Since we're going to kill the Cheaters, this kind of information is no longer confidential.

With Qiu Dugu's status, he should be able to know some information in advance, even if he doesn't know, he has the qualifications to ask Minister Jiang.

Qiu Dugu didn't directly refuse, but was puzzled and wanted to ask something more.

Fang Yue directly cut him off: "Don't ask any questions, tell me the answer, I will solve all problems, otherwise we're all doomed!"

Seeing Fang Yue didn't seem to be lying, after hesitating, Qiu Dugu directly told the location of the Cheater Base, and at the end said: "Don't misunderstand. I'm telling you this information to calm you down, don't act on your own. The Alliance must have a plan!"

Qiu Dugu has absolute loyalty and confidence in the Alliance.

"Just like my absolute trust in the parchment."

【I didn't expect I'm so important in your heart!】

... Isn't it all because you peek at my thoughts all day! I have no choice but to trust you!

Knowing the destination, then the next thing to do is to dye 【Flowing Cloud Saber】 with 【Immortal-Slaying Water】.

This step is actually the simplest, because everyone will be given a small bottle of Immortal-Slaying Water.

When needed, open the cork on the thumb-sized bottle, and drop the Immortal-Slaying Water inside onto the weapon, and it will briefly have the effect of damaging an immortal's body.

Everything is ready, only the east wind is missing.

Looking at the long dragon queue in front receiving 【Immortal-Slaying Water】, Fang Yue suddenly stepped forward.

"Advent!"

【Synchronize!】

Boom!!

An invisible air wave centered on Fang Yue, suddenly rippling out layer by layer.

Everyone only felt a gust of strong wind coming, and the entire queue immediately swayed, collapsing into a pile.

They all turned their heads in astonishment to look.

They saw a youth, with a black ring on his head, holding a Flowing Cloud Tang Saber, walking toward them step by step!

Crash!

Almost in sync with this youth's steps, the floating black ring immediately crashed down like a waterfall, sprinkling rain, drenching the youth entirely.

"Holy shit! What kind of cursed object is this! The curse effect is so exaggerated!"

"So cool! I just like this kind of cursed object with special effects!"

"That knife in his hand, could it be a transcendent-grade cursed object..."

Everyone stared at Fang Yue in shock, ignoring the fallen crowd in the queue, he walked to the very front and received the Immortal-Slaying Water.

Then his figure flickered, a black afterimage flashed past them, accompanied by a whoosh and he was gone without a trace.

He... actually ran away?!

It took the crowd a while before they suddenly came back to their senses.

"Damn! Grabbed the cursed object and ran, doesn't he want his life! This is the Alliance's stuff!"

"Useless deserter, the kind of person I despise most is this kind!"

"Such a big show, I thought this guy was some strong expert, but turns out it's just this, just this?"

The crowd sneered, extremely contemptuous of this behavior.

At the same time their faces burned, feeling humiliated that they had been intimidated by Fang Yue just now and didn't dare to act.

Under this emotion, the language coming out of everyone's mouths suddenly became more 'elegant and pleasant'.

Until...

"All of you shut up! Those who spoke just now, get on the helicopter now! Time waits for no one, you still have the mind to chatter!"

The one speaking was none other than Minister Jiang.

His expression was extremely ugly.

A deserter appearing in the queue, he, the person in charge of the third team, would be disgraced!

The Alliance's president handed the matter to him to handle, handed the team to him to lead, and yet this happened, he wished he could rush out right now, chase Fang Yue back, and dismember him on the spot to atone!

But, no!

He is not a child, cannot act on whims, everything must prioritize the big picture!

The Alliance's orders are above all!

His task is only one, and that is to lead this batch of personnel, charge toward the Cheater Base, charge toward that uninhabited deserted island!

And everything else has nothing to do with him!

The traitor in the queue will be dealt with by someone else.

The fate of a traitor — he knew it all too well!

From the moment a traitor chose to betray the Allied Association, that traitor's life was already over — there was absolutely no chance of a comeback!

Minister Jiang looked up at the stunned Qiu Dugu beside him.

"Your prized general has defected. What are your thoughts?"

"……" Qiu Dugu had wanted to say something, but in the end just shook his head: "……He isn't that kind of person! I believe in him."

Minister Jiang let out a couple of cold chuckles at those words and said nothing.

Why Qiu Dugu, after all these years, was still second-in-command, willingly placing himself beneath President Qian rather than going out on his own.

The difference was right here!

Naive — far too naive!

A person this naive would be unable to cope with what was about to happen next!

The world was undergoing transformation; the very landscape of the entire world was shifting.

If one did not make oneself become ruthless, cruel, one could not seize even a sliver of survival amid such upheaval!

Taking a deep breath, Minister Jiang forced himself to calm down.

The punishment from above was now unavoidable, so what remained was only to atone through meritorious deeds.

"The cheater's head — I'm taking it for certain!"

He arranged everyone onto the helicopters in batches.

Team One, Team Two, Team Three — the three squads set out together from the Allied Association base, flying toward the coastline.

Over on the coastline, cannon fire roared nonstop; missiles bloomed forth like fireworks, one after another, as if seeing them off.

"Ohhh, isn't this Minister Jiang? Haven't seen you in a few days — looking pretty rough, huh? Can't even keep your own men in line, one just up and defected. That's pretty lame, gotta say."

The virtual projection screen lit up, and the loathsome voice of the First Team Captain suddenly rang out from the helicopter.

"Whoa whoa whoa! Now's not the time for infighting — we need to join forces against the enemy… Oh right, Minister Jiang, I've got my eye on that house of yours. When the President comes down on you later and your whole family is ruined, I promise I'll pay top dollar for your place! Hahahaha!"

The Second Team Captain's projection appeared as well, and the words he spoke made Minister Jiang's face flush red in an instant.

Clearly, the matter of Fang Yue's defection had already spread far and wide.

In all his years at the Allied Association, Minister Jiang had never lost face like this!

"Fang Yue… Fang Yue!!"

Minister Jiang was so furious his teeth itched, making creaking, grinding sounds.

And just then…

On the helicopter, three large virtual projection screens appeared without warning before the three captains — like an urgent last-minute insertion — almost simultaneously.

In just one glance, the three captains all snapped their eyes wide open, mouths agape, as if seeing something they couldn't believe, frozen to the spot in an instant.

"Fang… Yue?"
