Chapter 70: He’s Really Too Easy to Use!_1
The place where the fireworks were released was extremely far away from here.
It took Su Mo and his group 20 minutes to arrive at the scene with the injured man.
It was a spacious training field.
There were many collapsed buildings around them.
There were even many dark bloodstains and scattered bones on the ground.
On the training field, there were many Trascendent.
Seeing them come over, someone immediately exclaimed,
“Wang Hui!”
As he spoke, someone immediately ran over. It was the captain of the Tidal Squad.
There were a total of six people in the Singing Tides team, and four of them formed a team.
The other two and the other scattered members formed a team.
Now that he saw his own heavily injured team member, the captain immediately could not calm down.
Xu Wei immediately handed him over and told him about the situation he had seen earlier.
While he was explaining, Su Mo took the opportunity to check on the situation.
They should be the two teams that arrived the slowest.
Looking at the Trascendent around him, the situation was not as bad as he had imagined.
Although many people were injured, there were still more than 20 people left.
Compared to the 30 or so people who had just entered, they had lost about a third of their men.
Sensing this, Su Mo, Chu Qingwu, and the others could not help but sigh in relief.
Before they came, they had already prepared for the worst.
However, looking at the results now, it wasn’t too bad to the point of being unacceptable.
Obviously, the government’s Trascendent were quite elite.
Even with the Puppet Master’s plan, he couldn’t capture all of them in one fell swoop.
Of course, this was only in comparison.
If compared to their daily operations, this operation was a huge loss.
In the outside world, Skywood City’s losses in a year’s worth of battles would probably be like this.
But now, just one fragment mission had caused such a huge loss.
It was true that this had something to do with the Puppet Master’s sinister scheme.
However, the more important reason was this the Origin World fragment.
The Origin World after destruction and mutation was far more dangerous than he had imagined.
There were not many self-cultivators in the fragment this time.
In the the Origin World, it was probably an unknown small place.
But even so, it had brought such a huge loss to Tianmu City’s Transcendents.
It was no wonder that the minimum requirement for military service was to be at least Tier 5.
Anyone below Tier 5 would probably be cannon fodder if they entered the battlefield.
Su Mo collected his thoughts and looked at the training ground in front of him.
Many Trascendent with black blood on their bodies fell on the training grounds.
It looked like they were all puppets that the Puppet Master had once controlled.
And now, only a powerful puppet with a scar on its face was left on the battlefield, fighting with Xu Liushuang and Zhao Shouzhuo.
Although the aura that the puppet emitted was no less than the monster he had encountered in the Taoist temple, it was still a little strange.
However, he was still suppressed by the two powerful deacon.
If it wasn’t for the fact that he would occasionally drop two magic item.
They might have been suppressed on the spot.
It was no wonder that the Transcendent squads that rushed over were all surrounded and did not go on stage.
The big shots were fighting fiercely. Wouldn’t you be causing trouble for them if you went up?
However, since this person was also a puppet, where was the Puppet Master?
Su Mo was puzzled and asked Xue Qiaoqiao,”
“Qiaoqiao, who set off the fireworks here just now?”
Xue Qiaoqiao was slightly stunned and replied,
“I’ll go ask.”
As he spoke, he approached the other teams.
With her strong social ability, she quickly returned and said,
“The fireworks were released by Team Baojin.
They encountered a large number of puppets here by chance.
Moreover, there were also Puppet Masters at the peak of Tier 4.”
” A Puppet Master at the peak of Tier 4?”
Su Mo slightly frowned.”
“Are you talking about the one on the field?”
“Isn’t that so?”
Xue Qiaoqiao was surprised.
“That was clearly a puppet!”
” A puppet at the peak of the fourth rank?!”
Xue Qiaoqiao’s expression changed.”
“Could it be that the one controlling it is a Tier 5 Puppet Master?”
Su Mo frowned and said,”
“It’s hard to say for sure now. That Puppet Master might be at the 4th rank or the 5th rank.
“As for Tier 6, that’s unlikely. Otherwise, when we encountered the Zhenwu Squad earlier, with Tier 6 control, we wouldn’t have been able to escape at all.”
“But even if it’s Tier 5, the situation this time is still very troublesome.”
Xue Qiaoqiao’s brows were tightly knitted, and her expression was rather ugly.
Su Mo calmly replied,”
“Actually, it doesn’t matter if the Puppet Master is Tier 4 or Tier 5.
As long as he dares to come out, even with so many puppets around him, he will definitely not be our match.
“Including the serious losses we are suffering now, it’s actually largely caused by this the Origin World fragment.
The dangers in the the Origin World were far more terrifying than the Puppet Master.
Even if it was him, he was just setting up a plan in advance and borrowing strength to fight.
Don’t misunderstand this as his strength. It will only increase your pressure.”
Xue Qiaoqiao nodded slightly.
Su Mo looked at the puppet that was showing signs of defeat and continued,”
“The crux of the problem is that we can’t find the Puppet Master’s true body, which is very troublesome.
There were two major quests in this trip: one was to kill the puppet master, and the other was to resolve the unstable factor of the Origin World Fragment.
Now, we can barely achieve the second point, but we might fail the first point.
After all, he had set up a trap here for such a long time, and no one knew what else he had.
If there were unexpected situations, he had to try to escape.
This was not only to save his life, but also to spread the news outside.”
Xue Qiaoqiao was slightly touched, but she snorted disdainfully.
“I’m an Trascendent who’s more experienced than you. Just take care of yourself when the time comes.”
At this moment, there was an intense explosion.
Xu Liushuang and Zhao Shouzhuo retreated.
The scar-faced middle-aged man stood motionless on the spot. Beside him was a broken magic item. His left arm was cut off at the root, and black blood was flowing out.
Many of the spectating Trascendent paled at the sight of the black blood.
Now, even the slowest Trascendent understood.
This middle-aged man at the peak of Tier 4 was actually a puppet!
The middle-aged man looked at the wound on his left arm and said regretfully,
“Although I can’t feel any pain at all, it’s still awkward to lose an arm.”
He looked around at everyone and paused for a moment before saying,”
” It wasn’t easy for me, Chen Luobai, to advance to Tier 5. I’ve been laying out my plans here for a long time, and I’ve also been equipped with a large number of puppets. I was originally full of confidence and thought that I could deal a heavy blow to Tianmu City’s Transcendent World. Now, it seems that I’ve underestimated the Dawn Society.
Boss Lu was right. As expected, we can’t let our guard down.”
“Chen Luobai? You said you are Chen Luobai?”
As soon as the middle-aged man finished speaking, Chu Qingwu suddenly walked forward.
Her hands trembled uncontrollably, and her expression was slightly distorted. However, her eyes were as sharp as knives as she stared at him.
Chen Luobai seemed to have thought of something when he saw this gaze. He said apologetically,
“I’m sorry, I almost didn’t recognize you just now. There have been too many people who have made enemies with me over the years.
However, your gaze feels a little familiar. Yes, no matter what, I can’t forget you.
If it wasn’t for you, how could I have escaped all the way from Cangqing Prefecture to Qingyang Prefecture?
But then again, the price of running away like a rat was worth it.
After all, your brother, the Prodigy Sword Saint of the Chu family, is really too useful!”
