1501: Chapter 1501: Luring the Enemy Deep into Territory 1501: Chapter 1501: Luring the Enemy Deep into Territory In the corridor of Experint Zone Two, Su Hui was running for her life, unfamiliar with her surroundings and unable to care less about getting lost behind her.
This was all because a terrible enemy was chasing her.
The mysterious masked pursuer was relentless, yet deliberately maintaining a certain distance from Su Hui, always chasing but never catching up.
Su Hui quickly noticed this point—the mysterious masked person wasn’t trying to kill her but to drive her away.
“Forget it, I’ll take the chance!” Su Hui stopped imdiately, ready to fight.
However, the mysterious masked person also stopped in their tracks without any intention of approaching for combat, seemingly prepared for a fight as well.
Su Hui took a closer look at the mysterious masked person, feeling sothing was off about his aura.
The height and build were similar, but there was none of that domineering presence of soone who considered themselves unparalleled.
Moreover, the masked person seed to be trembling.
“You’re an impostor.” Sensing sothing amiss, Su Hui quickly attacked.
To her surprise, the mysterious masked person took off the mask and pleaded on his knees: “Please, gorgeous, I was forced into this, I’m scared too.”
Su Hui grabbed the man by his collar and demanded loudly, “Speak!
What the hell are you up to?”
The man was terrified, “I don’t know, I’m innocent.
That man with the mask said he would lead us to make a fortune, but I didn’t expect to end up in a place like this.
If we don’t listen to him, we won’t be able to go ho.”
Frowning at this, Su Hui asked again, “Your accent sounds like mine.
Are you from the sa place as I am?”
After persistent questioning, she found out that the man ca from the sa city as she did, recruited by Leng Le.
Upon further confirmation, Su Hui found that all those who followed Leng Le to Dark City were ordinary people.
This was truly strange.
Why would Leng Le bring mundane individuals to Dark City?
It made no sense.
“Hold on!” Su Hui recalled an incident where two gangs fought viciously over recruiting soone.
One of those gangs was led by Lin Yue, and the person they contended over was just an ordinary individual, easily found anywhere.
It didn’t seem worthwhile to fight so fiercely for just one person.
Back then, Su Hui felt there was sothing odd, and later discovered that the man’s birth date was the unordinary factor.
Later, an old classmate specifically ca to visit Su Hui, ntioning that a person called Sister Leng was recruiting subordinates in their city, and this Sister Leng might be in the sa city as Su Hui.
The first person Su Hui suspected was Leng Le since Leng Le had also helped their boss to recruit subordinates before—it was sothing Leng Le was good at.
Initially, Su Hui thought their boss was plotting sothing, but now it seed like Leng Le was working for the mysterious masked person.
Now, with so useful information extracted, Su Hui was certain of one thing; the mysterious masked person’s target might be Gu Fan, and Li Shi was the bait to lure Gu Fan into a trap.
Su Hui thought she needed to warn Gu Fan quickly; the mysterious masked person might be planning sothing harmful to Gu Fan…
“Wait a second…” Su Hui frowned in thought.
From what she could deduce at the mont, the actions of the mysterious masked person might not necessarily be disadvantageous to Gu Fan.
Regardless, Su Hui knew she had to et with Gu Fan as soon as possible, but the problem was she had no idea where she was, and the person she had caught didn’t know either.
In other words, Su Hui had to rely on herself now.
******
anwhile, in another chamber, led by Leng Le, Gu Fan and Lin Xi had arrived in front of the mysterious masked person.
Familiar equipnt, familiar layout, familiar crystal-like devices built to accommodate a person—only this ti, the one controlling them was far more dangerous than before.
The mysterious masked person patted a nearby machine and said lightly, “Gu Fan, I’ve been waiting for you a long ti.
Li Shi, whom you’ve been looking for, is right here.”
“What exactly do you want to do?” Gu Fan’s expression darkened as the mysterious masked person placed Li Shi in the center device.
Was he planning to awaken her previous life’s mory as he did with Lin Xi?
No, that’s wrong.
Those machines and equipnt weren’t ant for awakening mories of a past life, but for achieving perfect immortality.
Now Gu Fan was confused: “Look, friend, if your purpose of catching Li Shi is for her to gain perfect immortality, then you’re being exceptionally kind to her.”
Leng Le said dispassionately from the side, “You’re wrong!
This has nothing to do with Li Shi, actually…”
“Shut up!” The mysterious masked person cut him off abruptly.
Gu Fan glanced briefly at Leng Le’s tense expression, feeling that Leng Le had intended to warn him, which is why the masked person was angry.
Lin Xi observed the twelve crystal positions and saw that they were all empty.
“Wait a second, you brought in so many people…” Lin Xi ca to a realization; she finally understood why the mysterious masked person and Leng Le brought so many ordinary people to Dark City.
They all t a certain criterion: their birth dates.
The mysterious masked person chuckled, “That’s correct, Lin Xi.
Now you’re even more certain of my identity.
So, what will you do next?
Will you help ?”
“What do you an?” Gu Fan was completely puzzled, looking at Lin Xi.
Lin Xi showed a hesitant expression, sizing up the mysterious masked person as if still trying to ascertain sothing.
Gu Fan could not help asking, “Lin Xi, you’ve guessed who this masked fellow is.
Tell , quick.”
“This…” Lin Xi looked at Gu Fan, then at the mysterious masked person, her expression anxious, unsure of what to do.
Gu Fan had never seen Lin Xi this flustered, which made him even more nervous.
Perhaps the identity of the mysterious masked person was even more complicated than he had imagined.
At this mont, the mysterious masked person spoke up, “Let’s reveal my identity later.
For now, the most important thing is, Xue Wang and Lord Xiong, listen carefully.
This world’s last device capable of granting perfect immortality is in my hands.
If you don’t co, I’ll destroy it.”
******
At this ti, at the command center of the Tower of Darkness, everyone could see the situation clearly through the cara carried by Gu Fan.
Xue Wang was agitated and after repeated confirmation, both Lord Xiong and Zhuo Hang agreed that the device could indeed grant perfect immortality; they were surprised one still existed.
Given Organization X’s desire for perfect immortality, even if Xue Wang felt it was likely a trap, he could not hold himself back and imdiately ordered the elite forces to move into the underground laboratory to seize the device at any cost.
Lord Xiong wanted to persuade him otherwise but seeing Xue Wang’s determination, he knew any attempt would be futile.
He could only watch as Organization X stepped into the trap carefully laid out by the mysterious masked person.
