Listener.
The mastermind who has directly or indirectly caused the deaths and injuries of several brothers through many lifetis has finally surfaced today!
If we were to rank the most threatening forces or units of the Night Demon Clan,
then the first place wouldn’t go to the Assassins, nor the Singers, and certainly not the Godzilla-like deep-sea beasts.
But rather, it’s the enemy’s reconnaissance units, which are almost everywhere and all-pervasive—the Listeners!
They eavesdrop on the human world, seemingly omnipresent, making the world devoid of little secrets.
They even make future seers like ng Lang restless and uneasy...
Compared to sothing like a satellite with "thousand-mile vision," the "Sharp-Hearing Ear" hiding beneath the surface is even more of a thorn in the brothers’ sides.
Regarding the true face of the Listener, ng Lang has been investigating, yet after so many lifetis, the other side has never shown its true self.
If the biggest gain from this "Jinghai Orphanage Special Operation" had to be nad, unveiling the truth of the Listener surely tops the list!
The answer was unexpected and yet seed so reasonable...
In fact, before today, ng Lang had already vaguely suspected...
[When we stord in, the Chao family mbers were already sprawled on the ground, with not a single survivor except for the missing body of a pet dog...]
One might recall this rather incongruous description during the "Solo Moon" raid on the Chao family.
Ordinary people might not think much of it, after all, it’s just a dog.
Two-legged humans can’t run easily, but can’t a four-legged dog find a dog hole to escape through?
However, for ng Lang, who had just uncovered the true nature of the "Divine Race," any living being with a neural system, even non-human creatures, could potentially beco a "host" for the enemy.
Essentially, what they referred to as a "Clan"!
If humans can be hosts, why not dogs?
The whole family was slaughtered, yet a dog managed to escape...
And you’re saying you aren’t the pri "suspect dog"?
Pushing back from the results obtained from the "Jinghai Orphanage Strategy," everything suddenly beca clear.
Considering the existence form of the "Divine Race," within the new living environnt of Earth, they probably lack much of their own mobility.
They need to employ parasitic thods to operate on Earth, clearing obstacles for the so-called "seed" to descend.
Assassins, Singers, and other units opted for humans as their parasitic targets.
But the special reconnaissance unit, the Listener, is evidently unsuitable in this respect, as human hearing is far from superior compared to other animals.
Paracium wouldn’t work either. According to ng Lang’s deduction, the "Divine Race’s" parasitic choice must require a creature with a sufficiently large brain capacity and developed hearing...
Good hearing, intelligent, and with the greatest suspicion... isn’t it a dog?!
Dogs possess developed hearing, able to detect sounds from kiloters away, and are particularly sensitive to infrasound, making them one of the creatures that sense earthquakes beforehand.
After biological modification, their auditory system might even be enhanced.
More importantly, dogs have a unique "civilized status"...
There’s a saying that you don’t have to be everyone’s best friend; that’s God’s task for dogs.
In nearly every city, every village, dogs are found everywhere.
Guard dogs, pet dogs...
A remote and desolate city might lack human presence, but wild dogs will certainly be there...
Canine creatures are omnipresent on this planet!
Even in heavily guarded military zones, they can co and go freely. After all, who would pay attention to a dog?
Strong hearing, deeply trusted by humans, a wide range of activity, and strong mobility...
From a different perspective, if ng Lang were the Night Demon Clan, he might not find a more suitable "reconnaissance unit" than dogs.
And within the Jinghai Welfare Institute, aside from the orphans, only a group of stray dogs was kept.
This made them stand out even more...
In ng Lang’s original raid plan, these tricky reconnaissance units needed to be cleared beforehand. Otherwise, the encirclent would risk exposure before forming.
ng Lang even thought of a sign for the blockade line—[No Entry for Unauthorized Persons and Dogs!]
As a crucial stronghold, the Listener around the Jinghai Welfare Institute likely wasn’t the only one.
Therefore, when unable to pinpoint targets, his strategy was rather to kill one thousand by mistake than to let one slip through!
However, the issue was how to achieve battlefield concealnt without alerting the other side...
Deploying the Demon Hunting Team, masquerading as a "dog theft gang" was one thod.
But capturing a few dogs might work; if you start massively capturing dogs around the orphanage, even a fool would know sothing’s up.
Use policy tools?
Like deploying urban managent to capture dogs town-wide?
But focusing only on Jinghai Town while other places remain peaceful would appear too inconspicuous.
If possible, he’d want to enforce a global dog ban to restrict enemy reconnaissance infiltration.
But the difficulty of execution is too high.
Banning dogs? You’d need a legitimate reason; otherwise, dog lovers’ scorn might drown you, or you’ll get labeled as an animal abuser.
ng Lang originally found it quite headache-inducing; the enemy’s choice of reconnaissance unit was truly revolting.
Unassailable, uncriticizable.
Could only watch the enemy openly eavesdrop around him?
However, this strategy provided ng Lang with another perspective to address the issue.
