The long night was not yet over.
A full-scale battle erupted among the various Ti Traveler organizations. Although no one was fully prepared, the battle began nonetheless.
It was as if a puppeteer, Joker, had tied an invisible string around everyone, leading them in a tango on the dance floor.
The lody of the graceful music was initially extrely beautiful.
However, the music grew faster and faster, and the dancers’ pace was forced to quicken, accelerating relentlessly.
The rhythm of the music seed to drag everyone on the dance floor into the abyss.
So realized sothing was wrong.
But it was too late to stop.
At this mont, the puppeteer Joker rushed towards another location with his two puppets.
Before dawn, soone would discover that Abi had also disappeared, just like Capri.
However, Abi’s status within the Future Organization was extrely important, so important that Qing Chen had to use him for a major undertaking.
Identity was everyone’s label, and the root of power and interpersonal relationships.
Qing Chen already knew the extent of his abilities. Now, what he needed to do was not to continue fighting, but to manipulate.
The next mont, soone was waiting on the street corner.
Qing Chen asked, “Boss Zheng, where’s W from the Future Organization?”
Zheng Yuandong stood quietly on the dark street, looking at Qing Chen with interest, and answered evasively, “I didn’t expect your combat abilities to be so strong now. A few months ago, you were still an ordinary person. The Knight inheritance is indeed one of the most powerful Cultivation paths in the Inner World.”
Tonight, Zheng Yuandong had thought he might need to take action, so he hadn’t left the vicinity.
He knew the battle between Mike and Shendai would end quickly. If Mike arrived in ti, he would need to deal with Mike, a top expert and chosen one of the Future Organization.
However, Qing Chen ended the battle too quickly, leaving Mike a step behind.
At one point, Zheng Yuandong wondered if the young man had precisely calculated the timing before daring to make his move?
Qing Chen said, “Boss Zheng, don’t be so relaxed now. Where’s W? I’m short on ti.”
Zheng Yuandong pointed in a direction with a smile, “Mike personally pursued Shendai, but Shendai Cang escaped. W is currently chasing Li Minghao. However, be careful. If the Future Organization dares to act without worrying about Nine Provinces and Kunlun taking advantage of the chaos, it ans they have a backup plan. So, if you want to kill W, forget about it.”
Qing Chen nodded, “Thanks for the warning.”
However, he never intended to attack W.
Joker didn’t need to appear on the stage himself. He didn’t need to be noticed, nor did he need anyone to know him.
He intended to end the dance before anyone realized Joker’s existence.
Zheng Yuandong asked, “What do you need to do?”
Qing Chen was stunned. He hadn’t expected a figure like Boss Zheng to cooperate with his plan!
After thinking for a mont, he said, “Please help hold off Mike.”
“No problem,” Zheng Yuandong smiled, “This is sothing you’ve asked to do. If I succeed, don’t disappoint .”
Qing Chen silently glanced at him; he truly was A-Class.
Suddenly, he saw Boss Zheng’s receding back, reached out and drew a black long sword from nothingness, seemingly a Forbidden Artifact.
Auf der Ofertum Street.
Dense and hurried footsteps echoed on the cobblestone road, like a herd of antelopes running wildly.
Li Minghao led the Koshima mbers, moving through the city at top speed.
However, from the aerial view, hundreds of people were rapidly pursuing on both sides of the street they were running on, like wolves driving a herd of antelopes, slowly closing the encirclent.
As Li Minghao and his n were about to be surrounded, the European head of Koshima abruptly stopped, calmly turning to look at the Future Organization mbers swiftly blocking their path.
Blocked in front and pursued from behind, the Future Organization outnumbered Koshima by more than ten tis; this was an unsolvable situation.
The Koshima mbers’ faces turned grim. They all felt they would die here tonight. They closely protected Li Minghao, preventing any surprise attacks.
But Li Minghao didn’t seem flustered. He calmly said, “Who’s in charge of this operation? I want to talk to them.”
Soone sneered, “You want to talk now? I think it’s too late.”
Li Minghao took out a black remote control, coldly saying, “I’ve hidden thirty black-gold bombs in thirty trash cans within a one-kiloter radius. If I press this, we all die.”
The Future Organization mbers were startled, unexpectedly finding Koshima so ruthless, resorting to mutual destruction.
They looked at the trash cans on the roadside and quickly moved away.
But there were at least ten trash cans just on this road alone. They didn’t know what the yield of Li Minghao’s bombs was; it might cause injuries even if they were far away.
No one believed Li Minghao was lying, because looking back at the pursuit, the other party had deliberately led them here.
At this mont, soone from the crowd laughed, “You led us here, then showed a posture of mutual destruction, just to talk to us? So, what do you want to talk about?”
With that, the Future Organization mbers in front of Li Minghao slowly dispersed, and W stepped forward.
He was wearing a black turtleneck sweater, tall and strong, handso and charming, like a born protagonist in a North Arican story.
Li Minghao took a deep breath and calmly said amidst the ten-sided ambush, “There must be a misunderstanding between us!”
W smiled, “What misunderstanding? The misunderstanding that you colluded with Capri to fra us? I never expected you to be so ruthless, even blowing up your own headquarters, leaving Nine Provinces untouched to fra them.”
Li Minghao was stunned, “Capri?! I colluded with Capri? That’s never happened!”
“No need to explain. We saw you with Capri this afternoon. I guess you didn’t expect Abi’s investigative abilities to be so strong,” W smiled, “Of course, you’re cautious, and we only managed to catch evidence of you together.”
Li Minghao was dumbfounded. He didn’t even know that he’d t Capri this afternoon!
He shouted, “This is the misunderstanding. I hid in the Pearson Museum all afternoon and never ca out. You can check the security caras of the Pearson Museum! If I really colluded with Capri, I wouldn’t be standing here with a bomb remote, waiting to negotiate with you. You’ve been chasing , so you should know that I actually had a chance to escape.”
W frowned. He also felt sothing was strange; why would Li Minghao resort to this to force the Future Organization to talk to him?
If it was to lure them into an ambush, now that everyone is surrounded by bombs, Li Minghao just needs to press the remote.
W cald down and carefully considered the cause and effect, trying to find an answer.
At one point, he suddenly felt he had figured sothing out.
But just as he was about to straighten out the clues, soone suddenly said from outside the crowd, “Since you say you have no connection with Capri, I’ll bring Capri here to confront you Face[-]-to-Face[-].”
Everyone followed the sound and saw Abi slowly walking over, escorting Capri, whose hands were bound behind his back.
Behind them was a subordinate Abi had taken out tonight.
W smiled in satisfaction, “Abi is truly Abi. He caught Capri so quickly, and he’s still alive.”
Abi walked into the crowd and calmly said, “Capri, Li Minghao says he didn’t cooperate with you. Tell us what you think. If your attitude is sincere, you still have a chance to see your family.”
Capri quickly said, “This afternoon, Li Minghao asked to go to Danlak Street to discuss today’s plan. He asked to find a way to lure Abi away, dispersing the Future Organization’s forces. And he also brought in a Koshima expert to intercept Mike. Even if Mike can quickly deal with Shendai, he won’t arrive here imdiately.”
W frowned and directly called Mike, but he couldn’t get through.
Everything seed to be confird by what Capri said.
Now, Li Minghao was furious, losing his composure, “You’re slandering ! Who told you to say this? Who planned all of this!”
Li Minghao was panicked.
He couldn’t guess who the mastermind was. They actually sacrificed Capri, a C-Class expert, to fra Koshima?!
Were C-Class experts so expendable?!
It didn’t seem right!
In Li Minghao’s opinion, if Capri was really an undercover agent, suddenly surrendering to the Future Organization wouldn’t exactly ensure survival.
In fact, the most shocked were not him, but Abi and Capri.
This was the first ti Abi had been controlled to do sothing, and tonight he witnessed the power of a Forbidden Artifact that could control people and a Forbidden Artifact that could change appearances.
He saw with his own eyes how Li Minghao beca his subordinate in a second and how he manipulated him and Capri to co here.
At this ti, Abi had already guessed that the host of the Forbidden Artifact was Qing Chen.
After all, Capri returned from the North Pole. Since Capri was controlled then, it ant the person who did it was the handso young man who was chased by Shendai and Koshima at the beginning.
Capri must have fought with the young man at sea and was then captured.
Therefore, he also understood that Qing Chen pretended to be Li Minghao to mislead him.
It was Qing Chen who controlled Heichuan Haidou to provoke the Future Organization.
It was Qing Chen who controlled Capri to attack Shendai and Koshima.
It’s accurate to say that this European Ti Traveler organization war was all because of this one person!
The Future Organization previously wanted to watch from the sidelines and reap the rewards, but now they’ve beco the ones being reaped, all thanks to this one person.
Abi actually admired Qing Chen; first, his ability to stir up trouble was top-notch. His tactics were astonishing.
Secondly, this guy changed his appearance and had Kunlun leader Zheng Yuandong help him hold off Mike, who sensed sothing was wrong.
He even dared to co into the crowd of Future Organization mbers.
If even one person in the crowd noticed anything unusual, Qing Chen would have died here.
But no one thought twice.
There’s nothing wrong with Abi catching Capri, right?
Would Abi betray the Future Organization? Of course not.
In the Future Organization’s European branch, W was the boss, Mike was second, and he was third.
After waiting for a while for W and Mike to return to North Arica, he would be in charge of the entire Europe. Why would he betray the Future Organization?
Besides, Abi had fought alongside everyone in the past and had never had any problems, and he was also well-liked.
Who would suspect such a person?
At this ti, Abi watched helplessly as everyone was fooled by Qing Chen, but he was powerless.
He suddenly felt that if Qing Chen took over the Eastern forces and dominated Europe, the Future, Shendai, and Koshima here would likely be eliminated soon!
The next mont, W looked at Abi, “What do you think about this?”
Abi pondered for two seconds, “I still maintain my previous judgnt. Capri has been an undercover agent for the Future for a long ti. Besides that organization, no one has such capabilities. Our good neighbors have always wanted to monopolize North Arica. This ti, our good neighbors must want to cause chaos in Europe, making us passive and unable to reinforce North Arica. Only this inference makes sense; otherwise, Capri’s actions are inexplicable. Be careful, I feel they are about to attack us in North Arica; maybe they have already started.”
Abi almost choked when he heard himself speak.
Qing Chen had actually blad everything on another Ti Traveler organization in North Arica.
The other party not only wanted to start a war in Europe but also wanted to spread the flas to North Arica.
The two organizations were already not in harmony. If the other party discovered that the Future Organization was on high alert, they would also be on high alert, and a major war in North Arica would also break out imdiately.
Abi was impressed with his ability to dig such a pit casually.
W nodded, “I think the sa way. Although there are so doubts, our priority now is to end the Amsterdam battle as quickly as possible. Perhaps our neighbors have already attacked us in North Arica. Don’t let things here drag on too long.”
Then, W looked at Li Minghao and smiled, “Regardless of the misunderstanding, you can’t escape tonight.”
Li Minghao trembled with anger. He raised his black remote control and snarled, “Try it! Let’s all die together!”
Abi calmly said, “Sorry, after you placed the bombs and left, I already sent people to dismantle them. Your remote won’t work. Try it if you don’t believe .”
Li Minghao was stunned. They were very secretive and had calculated the timing perfectly; the garbage truck wouldn’t pick up the bombs until tomorrow morning.
Unexpectedly, Abi had dismantled the bombs ahead of ti!
Abi started ranting. He clearly felt that when he said this, the young man had quietly hidden himself in the crowd, far away from the trash cans.
Black-gold explosives have limited lethality in non-closed environnts, even if the yield is doubled. The only things to worry about are high temperatures and the shrapnel from the trash cans being ripped apart.
If Qing Chen was hiding in the crowd, as a C-Class expert, he would probably only be slightly injured, but the Future Organization mbers would die in large numbers.
W looked at Abi’s confident smile and praised, “Abi, you are truly the most indispensable talent in the Future Organization.”
Abi: “…”
Capri: “…”
When did you dismantle the bombs?
Don’t joke at a ti like this, bro!
The two of them knew best; Qing Chen never dismantled any bombs, and he never told anyone there were bombs.
Playing like this, he’s going to kill everyone here!
Abi was desperate now.
At this ti, W removed his last concerns and took a step forward with a cold smile. However, a halo suddenly appeared in the sky. It was a beautiful female six-winged angel.
Holy and cold.
All the perfect adjectives in the world seed to fit her.
This was W’s ability; manifesting a six-winged angel.
The angel was clad in silver armor and held a cross-shaped long sword, her six wings fluttering gracefully in the sky.
The next mont, the six-winged angel slashed at Li Minghao. The mont the sword swung, even the air vibrated.
Fast as lightning, heavy as a mountain!
In an instant, soone flashed beside Li Minghao. Every step he took, another illusion appeared.
After four steps, four identical people appeared in the crowd.
Their actions were different, and for a mont, everyone couldn’t tell which one was real.
Abi was startled. This was probably a local expert that Li Minghao had brought from Koshima, a true chosen one!
Li Yunze!
The Future Organization hadn’t detected when Li Yunze ca to Europe!
Just as the cross-shaped long sword, like a judgnt from God, descended, this person had arrived in front of Li Minghao and caught the descending blade with his bare hands!
Without giving anyone a chance to think, in that instant, the other three Li Yunzes also attacked simultaneously, striking the six-winged angel with punch after punch.
With a loud bang.
Every punch landed, and every Li Yunze was real!
In just an instant, the six-winged angel was repeatedly knocked back by the imnse force.
This was not a real angel. Her strength was entirely determined by W’s level. W was B-Class, but Li Yunze was a solid A-Class!
However, Abi couldn’t continue watching; he discovered that during the chaos, Qing Chen controlled him and Capri to turn and leave without lingering on the battlefield.
He was so cunning and cautious; he ran away when he saw B-Class and A-Class experts?!
To be honest, Abi and Capri both breathed a sigh of relief, as Qing Chen’s caution ant they could stay away from the bombs.
But Abi didn’t understand.
Normally, people who like to play tricks on others like to watch their masterpieces up close; that’s how they get the greatest psychological satisfaction.
Didn’t this young man want to see the outco of the battle at all?
How did he suppress that desire?
However, Abi didn’t understand Qing Chen. Once Qing Chen was sure that he had achieved his goal, he would leave the battlefield at the best mont.
As for the outco…
He wasn’t very concerned.
A puppeteer, Joker, should know how to leave the stage and what he can and cannot do.
What supported Joker in all this was not madness.
But absolute calmness.
