Kaidan Game Train: A Chapter 1986: Killing Intent

Chapter 1986: Chapter 1986: Killing Intent

Xu Huo’s words didn’t cause any change in expression on the man sitting at the dining table, his gaze indifferent, "Then try to see if you can catch

and clear the level."

"Unfortunately, my clearance task isn’t you," Xu Huo smiled, "I’ve been in Yuquan City for a while now, and there’s one clearance option left, not sure if the Resistance Army will help out."

The man adjusted his glasses and looked up at him, "What if we don’t help?"

Xu Huo didn’t rush to persuade him but instead brought up another matter, "I’m not sure if other Outer Zone players feel the sa, but I think there are quite a few incongruities in this war between the Eastern District and the Resistance."

"Because of Zheng Yuci and the existence of ’White Blood’, Agor Corporation doesn’t need local players as much anymore. If the thod of cultivating Eastern District players can be infinitely replicated, there will naturally be a continuous influx of players, so they control the number of newborns in secret."

"Under this premise, the Resistance Army becos experintal resources that can be openly captured without any suspicion or criticism."

"It’s not wise to fish in a dried-up river, but I see they’re using the White Blood layout, with the intention of taking down the Resistance Army in one go. This situation likely ans they no longer need the Resistance, or maybe they urgently need a batch of ready-made test subjects. Either way, there’s not much difference to the Resistance."

"The Resistance won’t be unaware of this, as seen from their deliberate revelation of ’White Blood’ to Outer Zone players. Even knowing it’s a trap from the Eastern District, they still step right in; it shows the Resistance not only knows but plans to achieve their own goals."

"The Resistance’s biggest aim is, of course, to overthrow Agor Corporation and regain control of Yuquan City, but that goal is evidently hard to achieve, so they can only settle for a lesser one—to seize or destroy ’White Blood’, dealing a heavy blow to Agor Corporation."

"You obviously know what role Zheng Yuci plays in player modification, so last night’s multiple skirmishes were actually a matter of going with the flow, consuming Eastern District players on one hand, and telling Agor that the Resistance was fooled on the other."

"Whether Zheng Yuci is a player or not, the fact is there are several Rank-A players around him. I guess the Resistance doesn’t have enough strength to break through their protective layer to kill Zheng Yuci, so they have two plans."

"A direct confrontation is a must unless the Resistance can hide in other districts never to return. Otherwise, this battle is inevitable. If Zheng Yuci can be killed in the process, of course, it’s the best outco, but if not, the backup plan needs to be activated."

"As for this backup plan, bypassing the Rank-A players protecting Zheng Yuci is the lowest risk approach."

Xu Huo paused at this point, "The Resistance took and then released the psychotherapist from the base, clearly not just to extract information about Zheng Yuci, so who infiltrated?"

"Dove, or the strategist?"

At this point, even a man with strong psychological resilience on the opposite side showed a change in expression.

Ignoring the evident murderous intent, Xu Huo pointed to his throat, "Do you know why the Eastern District players who acted last night didn’t chase after

and the masked player?"

"Because you’re Outer Zone players," the man in glasses said in a low voice, looking at him sharply, "Wasting energy to chase two strong Outer Zone players isn’t worth it for the Eastern District."

The sa is true even if they make a move now.

"There must be soone within Agor helping the Resistance," Xu Huo asked, "You surely can’t be clueless about where the real ’White Blood’ is kept, right?"

Yet the man replied with a smile that didn’t reach his eyes, "You can see we’re putting on an act, but can’t you see the reason we’re doing this?"

Whether it’s deliberately falling into traps or using this thod to infiltrate Agor Headquarters, or targeting Zheng Yuci, it’s all for one reason—that they can’t achieve their goal by destroying ’White Blood’.

Since Zheng Yuci and ’White Blood’ are essential conditions for Eastern District players’ strength, killing people or destroying ’White Blood’ is a way to severely damage Agor. It’s obvious the Resistance knows the success rate is low on Zheng Yuci’s side, but this thod is the only way to draw the attention of Eastern District players.

Anyway, a major battle is unavoidable, and if it can gain an opportunity for companions infiltrating Agor, sacrificing most of the Resistance is worth it.

"White Blood isn’t really at Agor Headquarters, is it?" Xu Huo raised an eyebrow.

"What do you think?" the man didn’t directly answer, reaching into his pocket to take out a small tal box the size of a matchbox. He opened it and placed it on the table, "What do you think ’White Blood’ really is?"

In the recess of the box lay a very small tal chip. It was so small that even in the eyes of players with vision evolved many tis, it was pitifully tiny. If not for the glass covering the recess, even a breath could blow this chip away.

This less than half a milliter item was removed from the head of an Eastern District player.

"I can’t kill you, nor do I want to waste the effort," the man with glasses said, "If you’re using ’White Blood’ to clear the level, you might as well try this. Potion might be nonsense, but this was indeed taken from an Eastern District player’s brain, not sothing insignificant—they wouldn’t need to perform a craniotomy to implant this thing in the brain."

When Xu Huo saw this item, he even felt like he was being played. Many Eastern District players undergo surgery to implant interference devices into their brains, but that’s normally subdermal. A microchip of this size, according to Eastern District’s current technology, wouldn’t require such a major craniotomy. Besides, it’s a chip. If it influences players’ emotions through so special stimulus, then after players develop psychological problems, it could be solved by simply removing it, and it wouldn’t even make sense to record the illness progression of the player.

However, verifying whether this is "White Blood" is straightforward. He reached for the chip.

Just as his hand was within a finger’s distance from the tal box, the small box suddenly dismantled and reassembled into a tal syringe, stabbing straight into his palm!

At the sa ti, the man with glasses, who had been watching him, suddenly reached out at lightning speed, his five fingers stabbing towards Xu Huo’s throat!

A barrier comprised of spatial rays blocked the syringe and the man’s hand at just the right mont, but evidently, the opponent’s killing move was not just this. When the man made his move, there were props attacking from behind him too, even breaking through the defense barrier of a Rank A Prop!

Before Xu Huo could take out a prop to block, his entire body was pulled aside by a force, accompanied by the considerable noise of the chair being pulled, drawing the attention of others in the breakfast shop.
