Chapter 284: Silent Slaughter
Lin Xuan didn’t care about the Eagle Country’s submarine. After all, it had entered the waters of Taixia and would be discovered soon. It was basically a one-way trip for them now.
He sent information about it to the relevant department along with a photo and didn’t pay much attention to it. The relevant department in Taixia responded very quickly. After communicating with Di Yi, they contacted Lin Xuan directly and said that they had sent someone to deal with it and would not hinder his mission.
In fact, they had just sent an earth-rank military guardian to monitor the movements of the submarine. If Lin Xuan’s mission succeeded or failed, he would still take over the submarine. That was all.
The search for the underwater passage continued. It turned out that although the Sea of Chongsou was in the middle of the ocean and there were countless sea beasts around for capture and experiments, the bloodlines they used were mostly from land.
From the perspective of bloodline scientists, the more the characteristics of wild monsters fit humans, the more suitable their bloodline was for transplantation.
What characteristics did humans have that were similar to beasts? They were land mammals. That was why they chose those on land.
Time passed by, and in the blink of an eye, it was time for the start of the Beast Festival. During this period of time, Lin Xuan discovered as many as 36 marked underwater passages. After placing a thunder explosive stone in each of them, Lin Xuan quietly lurked nearby, waiting for the follow-up information from the information team.
“We’ve confirmed that all the members of the Sea of Chongsou have returned!”
“Alright, your search mission has come to an end for now. Continue to monitor the waters around the Sea of Chongsou. If you discover any mission targets, follow up and report them to me!”
After contacting the information team, Lin Xuan directly contacted Li Rui. “The mission begins. Help me block the door!”
“Roger!”
Lin Xuan did not plan to enter the Sea of Chongsou from the surface of the sea. He chose an underwater passageway and swam in. These passageways led directly to the inner region of the Sea of Chongsou, making it very convenient for him to sneak up on them.
The passage was not long. With Lin Xuan’s swimming speed, he successfully arrived at a building in the Sea of Chongsou in just half a minute.
He smashed the small submersion device that was parked at the side with a punch, cutting off the beast’s escape route. He walked up the steps and unexpectedly, many holes were dug on both sides of the steps. After looking at the railings, he realized it was a prison. The few prisons near the bottom of the dock were empty, but the ones above were not. Lin Xuan could already hear weak breathing.
In the cell, a girl in thin clothes lay there with hollow eyes. She seemed to have lost all hope in the world. It was not good to live, but she did not have the courage to die. She just lay there quietly, waiting for the end of the world.
She looked like she was from Southeast Asia. Lin Xuan frowned and took a look before continuing to walk up the stairs.
There was a black girl from Africa, a blonde girl from Western Europe, and a girl from Northern Europe. When Lin Xuan walked to the top floor, a girl with black hair and black eyes was sobbing in a low voice. She looked like she was from Taixia Country.
She raised her head and saw Lin Xuan standing outside. She looked frightened and couldn’t help but shrink back.
“Let me go, please!”
It was pure Taixia language!
The expressionless Lin Xuan smiled mysteriously. “Don’t be afraid. I’m here to save you!”
In the next second, the strong man sent by the military appeared beside Lin Xuan. “I will handle it. You can live without worry.”
Lin Xuan nodded with a smile. He did not know when it started, but when he was furious, he would always have a smile on his face, a smile that seemed to be both crying and laughing.
At the end of the steps, there was a door that was left ajar. Lin Xuan pushed the door open and it creaked. The two orcs who were chatting in the room turned their heads and looked over. They saw that the door to the dungeon was open, but they did not see anyone.
“This door needs to be repaired and… Who are you?!”
Lin Xuan pointed a finger between the eyebrows of another beast and turned around with a smile.
“The person who killed you.”
In the next second, a finger appeared on his forehead. The tip of the finger pointed lightly. Finger Gun — Embroidery Needle!
The expression of the beast who spoke didn’t even have time to change. The loud cry for help did not make it out of his throat.
Two mystic-rank beasts were killed in an instant!
After that, the identity of the deceased was determined by the facial recognition of Di Yi’s watch, and the corresponding information was removed from the mission target database.
Lin Xuan swaggered out and knocked on the doors of each room. Whoever was inside didn’t survive long and each of them had their own special quote handed to them before dying.
The number of mission targets was decreasing rapidly. Soon, Lin Xuan’s target was no longer just the people in the room, but also the lucky passersby on the road, the drunkard’s drinking, and the patrolling guards.
It wasn’t until a cry of alarm rang out that some beasts finally realized that someone had died. However, what was even stranger was that there were even more people lying on the ground when they arrived. Only then did they realize that they had been silently ambushed!
They fell to the ground in horror and were so scared that they couldn’t speak. It made sense as to why it started getting quieter and quieter!
Death was normal, but this massacre? That was different.
In fact, he was just a small fry that Lin Xuan had accidentally missed when he was killing. He was drunk and lying on the table and looked as if he had been killed. Lin Xuan had mistaken him for a dead body.
He ran out of the bar and shouted crazily, but not a single orc appeared. It was as if it was not in the Sea of Chongsou, where a festival was about to begin, but in a ghost city!
The more it ran, the more scared it became. Finally, its legs gave out and it fell to the ground. However, some of the patrolling guards finally rushed over after hearing the news. After they asked about the situation, they opened a nearby door and saw the orc who was sleeping peacefully on the floor was already dead.
The beasts in the room were also dead!
The head guard immediately felt that something was wrong. The surrounding environment was too quiet. The orcs held their breaths, and the world suddenly became quiet. Only the sound of footsteps could be heard!
Footsteps?
There were still people who hadn’t died!
Before the orcs could turn around, they heard a calm and cold voice.
“Oh, a few of them escaped?”
Then, the rest of the guards felt something touch their heads and they died.
Lin Xuan, who was standing behind them, pulled back his finger coldly. Whether it was yellow-rank or mystic-rank, a light touch was enough to take a life. There wasn’t the smell of blood or any big movements, so no one from the Sea of Chongsou had noticed anything wrong up until now. Moreover, those who did have been dealt with.
This mission was completed much faster than he had expected. Everything ran smoothly. He seemed to have overestimated the Sea of Chongsou!
Lin Xuan shook his head and did not care about these distracting thoughts. The largest number of ordinary orcs had been dealt with, and the next thing to do was to deal with the people on the iron wall built around the island.
