Demon King, Don’t Run Away

Chapter 1178: Investigate the ghost

Views:

Seeing that Yang Yu was confident, all the officials present were surprised and asked quickly:

"Mr. Yang Yu, what other methods do you have? Can you really find any trace of the Curse Sect?"

"Don't get excited." Yang Yu crossed his arms and leaned back in his chair. "The method will be kept secret for now. We will announce it after the investigation results come out to avoid alerting the enemy.

Perhaps, this plan should have been used from the beginning.

Before setting out on the expedition, I was somewhat hopeful that the Curse Cult would not escape.

But... they are more cautious and cunning than we thought."

Mangrove Jiklot pondered for a moment and asked:

“Sir Yang Yu just said that the method you are going to use requires a little luck.

Mr. Yang Yu, how confident do you think you are in retrieving the traces of the Curse Sect? "

“It cannot guarantee 100% success, but at least there is a 50% success rate.”

"Half." Several officials were instantly deflated.

"Don't think it's too low. In this situation, as long as there is a 10% chance of finding them, it's worth a try.

If you fail, treat it as training; if you succeed,

The challenges we face have only just begun.”

In fact, Yang Yu didn’t know what the success rate was.

Whether this plan can succeed depends not only on the progress of Wangwu Idlu, but also on the decision of the Curse Sect. It also depends on whether the Curse Sect knows about Yang Yu's arrival, takes him seriously, and believes that he can create miracles again and is a considerable threat.

Without any of these key conditions, the plan would fail and they would just be wasting their time.

However, Yang Yu believes that this plan has a much higher success rate than imagined.

Sometimes, being too cautious or too confident can actually leave bigger holes.

As time went by, no one spoke in the meeting. In the absence of information, there was nothing to talk about.

Everyone in the conference room stared at Yang Yu, waiting for the investigation results that Yang Yu was expecting.

Taking advantage of this quiet free time, Yang Yu made a gesture to Bai Jin.

The two of them connected through telepathy, and Yang Yu asked Bai Jin to inform everyone what to do next.

Time passed again, and the night gradually deepened.

Suddenly, a faint blue flame passed through the wall and floated in front of Yang Yu.

If an ordinary person saw this faint blue fire in the middle of the night, they would probably be scared to death, but the officials at the scene were not in a hurry. They knew that this faint blue fire was the contracted spirit of Wangwu Idlu.

The blue flames gradually spread out and turned into a handsome butler with long braids.

The handsome butler floating in the air first saluted to the people present, then turned to Yang Yu and said:

"You are Mr. Yang Yu, right

Captain Wangwu, I have collected the information you requested.

He has some things that need to be verified, so he's running around the city. I'll be the first to explain to you what he found.

If there are any corrections, I will inform you as soon as possible. "

The spirit housekeeper's fingers kept turning in the air, weaving out pages of books emitting a faint blue light, which flew in front of Yang Yu.

His eyes quickly scanned the information in front of him, and countless pieces of information flowed through Yang Yu's mind.

After turning the last page of the ghost book, Yang Yu asked the ghost butler:

"that's it?"

The ghost butler nodded, "That's all."

Yang Yu turned his gaze towards Hongshu Jiklot and said:

"Mr. Archon of the Terun Republic, I already have some answers here. I hope you can tell me truthfully how many people in the Terun Republic knew about the crusade against the Curse Sect a few days ago.

Now, as I request, gather all those who know about this operation.”

Mangrove Jiklot said:

“It’s okay to call them up so late, but I hope you can give a reasonable reason.

Now that you have received the information...

Is it about time you told us your plan?"

Yang Yu said, “Of course.

My plan is actually very simple.

It is to find out the traitor hiding in the Republic of Terun.

Then, through this insider, we can find the new base of the Curse Sect."

"An insider?" The officials of the Terun Republic all looked puzzled. After a while, they all knew Yang Yu's intention. "Are you trying to say that the failure of the crusade against the Curse Sect was not because the Goddess Church exposed the plan, but because it was exposed from within the Terun Republic?"

Yang Yu said sternly, "I don't have any evidence just now, so I can't make any conclusions.

But now that I have this information, I feel more confident.”

"Who is the traitor?"

Several officials spoke up at the same time, and then looked at each other in bewilderment. The colleague they used to work with day and night now looked like a traitor.

"I just told you that when I was in Wansheng Country, I was attacked by the Curse Cult in the identity of Potato Thorn. The other party sent out three disciples, and we skillfully fought with them and forced them to leave.

Among the three disciples, one had the ability to transform into other people.

It's not just a simple change of appearance, but the ability to use the skills of the person you're transforming into and emit the same characteristic magic.

Such abilities are best suited for lurking.

There is no doubt that he is very likely lurking among us now.

However, it is not clear yet who he has become.

I already have some candidates in mind, and I will be able to find the traitor quickly after some testing."

Since you are so sure, then do it quickly. Several officials are already impatient.

Usger said, "What method do you plan to use to find the traitor? If possible, please teach me. Maybe the person you are talking about is hiding in our Goddess Church."

"You don't have to tell me, that's what I meant.

If I want to find this traitor with special abilities, I have to rely on the power of my partners."

Yang Yu stood up from his seat and stretched out his hand behind him.

He Meng crawled out from Bai Jin's hood, jumped up and down, and leaped onto Yang Yu's palm.

Holding He Meng in his hand, Yang Yu smiled slightly, as if he was sure of victory:

“As long as my partner is here.

No matter what the disciple of the Cult of the Damned has become, I can grab his tail and find him.

The reason why that guy was able to transform into other people perfectly was all because of the power in his body that originated from the slime.

The last time we fought them, the royal slime in my hand noticed this.

Although the Lurker could copy a person's appearance, skills, and characteristic magic, his underlying scent was still that of slime.

We don't need to interrogate anyone. We just need to let the suspicious person put his hand on the slime in my hand and release the magic power. Then we can immediately know whether he is a member of the curse sect lurking among us.

In addition, another companion of mine has an extremely powerful holy light.

She will do her best to heal others. Holy light is like poison to those who use darkness.

As long as they have even a little bit of dark magic, they will be in excruciating pain soon.

This way, even if that disciple is not here, as long as I catch the other members of the Curse Sect, I will still be able to find the new lair of the Curse Sect."
