124: Chapter 124 Dark Alliance in Red

The Alliance had already taken control of the situation.

After a fierce battle.

All members of the Dark Alliance were subdued, and all Dark Magic Beasts were slain.

The Alliance and the Adventurer squad vastly outnumbered the enemy, so they had no chance of escaping.

After being captured.

The Alliance members placed magic-restricting handcuffs on them and took everyone away.

The wounded were also receiving treatment.

In such a conflict, it was inevitable that some would be injured.

Fortunately, no one had died, which was already a stroke of luck.

Jiang Tianhai had also returned.

He had caught that heavily made-up woman.

He also escorted her to the Alliance branch.

After observing for a moment.

Lin Fan refocused his attention on the children.

After releasing everyone.

He gathered them around him.

The children were very obedient and stood quietly around him.

The next moment.

Lin Fan's eyes turned silver-white, and specks of starlight appeared beneath his feet.

This scene frightened the children.

They looked around nervously but did not run away.

Four Star Arrays quickly took shape, and Lin Fan whispered one word:

"Spatial Instant Shift."

As his voice faded.

He and the children vanished amidst the flickering silver light.

A moment later.

A gathering secret chamber.

Many people were sitting inside, their expressions varied.

They were all the hostages Lin Fan had previously rescued, waiting for him here.

Suddenly.

A silver light flashed through the secret chamber, too fast to be noticed.

The next second.

Everyone was startled… a group of people had appeared in the secret chamber.

They looked over in horror, discovering that the newcomers were Lin Fan and a large group of children.

Those who had arrived earlier looked at Lin Fan with disbelief.

They could not imagine how he had suddenly appeared with so many children.

The children were also frightened by this moment of instantaneous transportation.

They nervously looked at the adults around them.

Finally, their gazes fell back on Lin Fan, who was standing beside the orange-haired little girl.

Lin Fan did not wait for them to ask, pointing directly at the door leading to the outside of the underground structure and telling them:

"Go out through this door; there will be Alliance members outside to receive you."

As for the magic array at their feet, it was an anti-detection array and would not hinder their departure.

"What about you? Are you not coming with us?"

A woman who looked to be twenty-seven or twenty-eight spoke up, her tone filled with worry and suspicion.

Lin Fan looked at her in silence.

He walked toward her, holding Lin Hu's daughter.

Seeing him approach, the woman subconsciously took a step back.

"I... I don't doubt you, I just..."

She was incoherent, too nervous to speak a complete sentence.

Lin Fan did not care what she wanted to say or think.

He walked up to her and handed over the little girl.

"Take her out. Her father is an Alliance officer; you will see him once you get out."

As his voice faded.

Lin Fan activated Void Walk, and a spatial gate opened behind him.

After saying this, he turned and stepped into that white space.

Everyone: "..."

He just left instructions and disappeared like that?

Besides following his instructions, did they have any other choice?

"Let's go."

One of the people previously rescued by Lin Fan spoke up first.

If not for Mr. Chen.

He would have long been thrown into the conversion pool; he trusted Mr. Chen implicitly.

The group left one after another.

Meanwhile, Lin Fan used Void Walk.

Returning to the platform where the children had been held.

He returned.

Because he wanted to use [Seamless Space Perception] again.

He was not satisfied with the strength of the opponents he had just encountered.

He was certain.

There were more Dark Alliance members outside, and they were stronger.

For example, the person who possessed the shadow element and tried to recruit him into the Dark Alliance was not here.

Lin Fan concluded.

Behind that person who tried to recruit him, there must be a higher-level existence.

The person in charge of the Dark Alliance in Baiyun City.

Could not possibly appear in person; the risk was too great.

Could it be... they knew in advance he was coming and had already withdrawn?

Lin Fan shook his head.

He hadn't told anyone.

The other party could not have foreseen it; it must have been a coincidence.

The next moment.

His eyes turned silver-white again, and countless stars appeared around him.

In less than a second, they condensed into four huge Star Arrays.

"Seamless Space Perception!"

The Star Arrays dissipated.

The eyes behind Lin Fan's mask shone like torches.

The familiar feeling returned.

His consciousness instantly enveloped the entire city.

He saw the rescued people walking out of the gate.

Reuniting with the crowd waiting outside.

Some found their families and embraced in emotional reunions.

He saw Lin Hu running towards the woman holding his daughter.

Holding back tears, he hugged them tightly.

Outside the building.

Scenes of lost loved ones reunited played out one after another, warm and moving.

Lin Fan smiled slightly, very satisfied with the results of this operation.

Immediately, he withdrew his attention and scanned the entire city with his consciousness.

Countless voices flooded his mind like a tide.

In less than three seconds.

Lin Fan caught a conversation, his mind suddenly tightening.

"That so-called Chen Ping has truly astonishing methods; he found our base so easily."

"Black Robe, the losses this time are heavy."

"Because of your negligence, not only did we lose the conversion pool and a large number of Dark Magic Beasts, but we also lost numerous Yellow-robed Disciples and Alliance members."

"Wait to be punished at the assembly."

"Respected Red-robed Lord, your subordinate... understands. I beg you to take action and eliminate Chen Ping!"

"I will naturally handle it."

"He is a Fifth-Order Mage; if I eliminate him, my points in the Dark Alliance will rise by another tier."

After listening to this conversation.

Lin Fan confirmed that these were the remnants of the Dark Alliance branch he had wiped out.

From the conversation, he could tell.

They already knew the news that the base had been discovered and all remaining personnel had been wiped out.

And Lin Fan could tell.

One of them was a high-ranking member, who had come to Baiyun City specifically for him.

But he felt something was strange...

According to their address, the voice of that "Red Robe" was truly not right.

Lin Fan's consciousness instantly crossed the city.

Arriving near the northern border of Baiyun City.

His gaze penetrated the roof of a villa.

In the luxurious living room.

The marble floor was smooth and shiny, and a giant chandelier cast golden light.

A figure sat in the main seat.

Swinging their legs, one hand holding a lollipop and licking it.

Eight people stood respectfully around them.

One of them wore a black robe, and the rest were all in yellow.

Seeing this scene clearly.

Lin Fan's expression changed slightly, and his brows furrowed deeply.

The one sitting in the main seat.

Was clearly the Red-robed Lord they spoke of.

But... this was clearly just a child!

Lin Fan stared in disbelief at the boy who looked only thirteen or fourteen years old.

Who could have imagined.

Such a seemingly cute child was actually a high-ranking member of the Dark Alliance?!

Lin Fan immediately probed the other's cultivation, and the result shocked him even more.

This little boy eating candy... was actually, like him, at the Fifth-Order Mage Realm!

He was too shocked to speak, completely unable to believe it.

How is this possible?

Even if one started cultivating magic from the womb, it would be impossible to reach the Fifth-Order Mage Realm so quickly.

"Could it be... does he also have a System?"
