Fantasy Game: Infinite City

Chapter 218: Misty (1)

Located at the border of the rebel army and the "Night Owl" organization's sphere of influence.

In an underground fortress that was mostly destroyed by missiles, Han Zu was wearing a clean rebel flag around his waist and wiping the armor he found two days ago. Since letting the survivors go, in order to prove the rumors and fish in troubled waters in the future, every two days after sunset until the next day's sunrise, Han Zu would wear this armor and go to the armed outposts and fortresses in various parts of the "Night Owl" sphere of influence, killing a group of enemies and leaving some behind to report back.

The effect of this approach was very successful. Within the influence of the "Night Owl" organization, there were obviously a large number of temporary checkpoints and armed personnel on various roads, in urban areas and around some facilities. In order to prevent several important urban areas from having insufficient armed protection, the "Night Owl" organization even called in several rebel troops for assistance. Together with the armed members of the "Night Owl", they guarded the various checkpoints. The most heavily guarded areas were the main roads between the urban areas. There was a temporary checkpoint filled with fully armed guards almost every few kilometers.

Those bigwigs of the "Night Owl" organization, who never leave the city easily, scoffed at this "rumor". They believed that it was just that their useless subordinates messed up the job, so they found an excuse of force majeure to exonerate themselves. But not everyone did not believe it. Several senior executives who valued their lives more were already looking for ways to leave Q City.

"For those guys who have left or are about to leave Q City, I have already found out their whereabouts and destinations. As soon as they arrive at their destination, they will be taken away by our people for investigation. If necessary, as long as they leave the scope of Q City, our people will find a way to control them."

The mysterious woman appeared beside Han Zu temporarily because there was no one else around him. However, she did not follow Han Zu these two days. She went to do something else. As for what she did, she did not tell Han Zu, and Han Zu did not intend to ask.

"Huhu! I think these guys may not know about the traitor. If it were me, I would definitely stay in my sphere of influence if I had such important information."

"We can't miss any possibility now."

"So what are you going to do with these guys later?"

"Erase the memories related to us, and then send them back here."

"I think we can send them to the research institutes in the Department of Biochemistry. After all, they still have many unsolved research projects."

“Uh…”

The mysterious woman sighed, obviously not agreeing with Han Zu's statement.

"I think with your brain, it is impossible that you can't figure it out. We do this to prevent the organizational structure of "Night Owl" from changing and getting out of our control. I think you are just simply vicious. I guess after you complete your mission here, if the opportunity is right, you should plan to wipe out the entire "Night Owl" organization from Q City, right?"

"You're half right. I just need to clear out some of the senior staff. In this way, our people will be able to fill the vacancies and truly take control of Night Owl in our own hands. After all, there are many things that are not suitable for us to do in public."

“Gulp..Gulp…”

The mysterious woman sighed again, walked to the table where Han Zu placed the armor, picked up a wine glass from the table, poured some rum that Han Zu found from somewhere, took two sips from the glass, and continued to communicate with Han Zu.

"You know that even among the top members of the Night Owl organization, there are some innocent people, right? They have never been involved in anything excessive. As for them, will you chop off their heads without mercy?"

Han Zu put down the rag he was using to wipe his armor, leaned back, sat on a chair made from the ruins, reached out and picked up a cigar from the table, and flames appeared on his hand.

"Hiss... Huh... Innocent? Where are there innocent people? Where are they? Even if they didn't personally participate in the activities of the Night Owl organization, they more or less knew what their organization did to make a fortune. You can say they turned a blind eye, but they are definitely not innocent people, otherwise they would not have become the top leaders of this underground organization and criminal empire. In fact, these bystanders who did nothing deserve to die more than the criminals."

The mysterious woman raised the wine glass to her lips and looked at Han Zu seriously. Although her face was still expressionless and poker-faced as before, Han Zu could still tell from her eyes that her opinion of him was now very complicated.

"Even if I remove those strange powers from you, you are a weird person. Your thinking logic and behavior style are extreme methods that anyone can think of, but will never do. I really want to tell you that nothing in this world is black and white, but I think with my identity, it seems inappropriate for me to say these words."

The mysterious woman fell silent after saying this. Although the chairman had given the man in front of him full control of the operation and had also said that he would help him as much as possible, was it really the right choice to help this guy who did things completely based on his own likes and dislikes and didn't care about anyone else to gain more power?

The woman put down her empty wine glass, tucked her hair behind her ears with her hands, thought carefully, and decided to obey the chairman's orders.

"The thing you're looking for is the solution that Olivia told you about at the Aurora Hotel. I've found the exact location."

Upon hearing the news, Han Zu, who was leaning back in his chair with his eyes closed, opened his eyes and sat up straight.

"where?"

The mysterious woman took out a miniature terminal from her pocket and threw it to Han Zu.

"Sixty-four items from the fourth project."

According to what the woman said, Han Zu used the micro-terminal in his hand to open the entry that the woman mentioned. On it was a holographic map. The location was quite far away from Han Zu's current position, and looking at the coordinate data, it seemed to be in a certain urban area within the influence of the "Night Owl" organization.

"This place is a trading center within the Night Owl organization. Its leader left Q City's sphere of influence through his own route a few days ago at noon, a few hours after you released the survivors. This person has been controlled by us. We have extracted some unimportant but better than nothing information from him. The news about the mysterious solution is one of them."

Hearing this news, Han Zu nodded. This news was indeed very important to him.

"Since you want to get the exact address before me, why don't you think of taking this thing away before me and researching it?"

"I don't know what those people in the Intelligence Department think. Anyway, I don't have such an idea. It doesn't matter to me. Oh, by the way, I heard the name of Ledger mentioned by those survivors a few hours ago."

"It seems that this person, Led, does exist."

"Speaking of which, why do you think Led is so important? If he really exists."

Han Zu poured himself a glass of rum and began to talk about his thoughts with this mysterious woman.

According to the conversations between the survivors, the guy who appeared at the fountain outside the hot spring building was the one that Led had hired to deal with the boss of the "Night Owl", and they said that "these strange plants can indeed fight those monsters", referring to the gelatinous humanoid creatures that appeared near the teratoma. In other words, the teratoma-like thing should belong to the current boss of the "Night Owl" organization.

"If the survivors are not lying, then we can figure out two things. First, the traitor in the secret base is a subordinate of this man named Layed. He used this traitor to steal another freak in the secret base in order to find a way to fight against the boss of the "Night Owl" organization. Second, since the freak-like thing in the hot spring bath in the private club belongs to the boss of the "Night Owl", then he must know what it is used for. As long as we catch Layed, we can find out who the traitor is. As long as we catch the boss of the "Night Owl" organization, we can find out what the freak-like thing is used for."

The mysterious woman nodded, agreeing with Han Zu's statement, but soon thought of something and asked quickly.

"I remember you said a few days ago that you gave the deformed fetus you found in the hot spring to Zhao Xuan for safekeeping, but now Zhao Xuan and Su Qing are both dead, so..."

"Here."

Han Zu leaned out of his chair, pulled something out from a pile of scraps beside him, dusted it off, and threw it on the table between the two of them. This thing was the half-broken special messenger bag that originally belonged to Zhao Xuan.

"Some time later that day, I went back to the private club and found this damaged backpack and Zhao Xuan's head, which was only half of it. The engineering materials inside seemed to have fallen out, but the "freak" was not lost and was still in the backpack."

The mysterious woman picked up the remaining half of the messenger bag, disabled the backpack's properties, took out everything inside, and poured them onto the ground. The special storage box containing the "freak fetus" was indeed intact, and so was the "freak fetus" inside.

"You can take this thing back first. Maybe the base can speed up the research. Then I can go find that Led first and put the matter of the 'freak' aside for now. The probability of something going wrong when doing two things at the same time is definitely higher than the probability of focusing on one thing."

"Let's forget about it for now. Although the traitor won't make any big moves in the short term, he is still in the base. If we take this thing back now, we might just give it to the traitor for free. Let's wait until we catch Led and find out who the traitor is."

"Then you should keep this thing first."

"can."

It was still early, not even noon, and Han Zu planned to organize the information he had found in the past few days, then take a break and prepare to look for the solution of the Gift of Death in the evening.

According to the information collected in the past two days, rumors began to spread within the "Night Owl" organization, saying that the organization was splitting up and someone wanted to kick the boss out of his position and replace him, but Han Zu could not be 100% sure that this person was Leddy whom he had heard about before.

There is another thing related to the rebels next door. The rebels have completely defeated the main force of the coalition government's army. It is expected that in about a week, they will be able to completely occupy the coalition government's previous sphere of influence. Han Zu heard that the leader of the rebels did not seem to be satisfied with dividing Q City with the "Night Owl" and seemed to be trying to swallow up the areas occupied by the "Night Owl" organization.

There is another small thing, which is the rumor I made up these two days, that after the sun sets, monsters will appear in the sphere of influence of the "Night Owl" organization.

"According to common logic, if this Layed or someone else wanted to become the leader of the Night Owl organization, he would probably cooperate with the rebels, and then stab his allies in the back after achieving his own goals, truly dominating the world. Although the number of rebels is more than twice that of the Night Owl organization, in terms of technological equipment and capabilities, the Night Owl is still better. After all, the more people there are, the more divided they are."

“Knock knock… knock knock…”

Han Zu placed his fingers on the armor handguard on the table and tapped the armor plates on the handguard rhythmically. He must be thinking about how to use the information. Soon, Han Zu thought of a general countermeasure.

"I need you to do me a favor. You can help me spread some news. The general content is that Led is indeed discussing something with the leader of the rebels."

"Where are the details?"

"No need. The divergent thinking of those who heard the rumors is the best detail."

"Is there anything else I can do?"

"There is one more small thing. When you spread the news, please mention this as well. It would be best if you have two versions."

Han Zu knocked twice on the armor next to him, and the mysterious woman immediately understood what Han Zu meant. He wanted most people who heard the rumor to believe that the monster that appeared in the night was actually the work of Led and the rebels, in order to gradually clean up and reduce the number of diehards inside the "Night Owl" organization who were loyal to the original "Night Owl" boss.

As for the other version, of course, this monster in the night is a subordinate of the "Night Owl" boss, who wants to throw dirty water on Led and the rebels so that he can justify eliminating dissidents.

"I understand what you mean. As long as we let them quarrel among themselves, no matter how big or small the incident is, as long as it is brought to the surface, we will have an opportunity to take advantage of it."

"Yes."

“So when do I need to spread the news?”

"No rush. If things happen too frequently, it will make people suspicious. You can wait a little longer, like after I get my things."

"Then I will calculate the time and start spreading the news from some urban areas that are not close to the core area. What are you going to do now?"

"Take a break, it's still early after all."

"You can keep your composure."
