293: camouflage

In the dense forest, a cold wind howled, and large, icy raindrops continuously slapped against the leaves, making a rapid “drip-drop” sound.

Xiao Fan stared blankly at the alien undergoing extreme torture, his movements seemingly frozen.

The voice from the alien's walkie-talkie echoed in his mind, as he pondered how to respond next.

Four teams left…thirty-two people…

Four teams…

Xiao Fan’s brows furrowed as he calmly thought in the pouring rain, but he couldn't come up with a perfect solution.

In the sky, Gun King General Yang Yuan quietly watched this scene, also considering what he would do if he were in Xiao Fan's shoes.

To be honest, he couldn't think of any way to continue this impossible mission.

It was too difficult to secretly eliminate a unit in someone else's stronghold.

The average Realm of the units was higher than Xiao Fan’s, and they were all elites among elites.

Xiao Fan’s greatest reliance to get to this point was the Kong Wu Realm; only those who had also reached this Realm could perceive the location of someone with this Realm.

The Green Ghost Tiger Team’s deployment was actually perfect.

However, the stealth ability of the Kong Wu Realm was a dimensionality reduction strike for them.

Therefore, Xiao Fan was able to eliminate three teams so smoothly.

But even so, Evil Tiger, the captain of the Green Ghost Tiger Team, had already sensed something was amiss and began to act.

Xiao Fan seemed to be progressing smoothly now, but he was actually in great danger; as soon as he was discovered by the alien and his identity recognized, he wouldn't even need to fight—the mission would have to be terminated immediately.

And now, Xiao Fan was considered half-discovered.

Suddenly.

General Yang Yuan’s expression changed slightly, a hint of surprise on his face.

Xiao Fan, standing on the damp mud, suddenly crouched down and, imitating the voice of the Mantis People, “desperately screamed” into his miniature earpiece: “Help!”

“Captain, help!!!”

“The enemy is…is…blood…Ah!!!”

Xiao Fan’s voice disguise was perfectly executed. After screaming, he returned to his normal expression, somewhat nervously awaiting a response from the earpiece.

Captain Evil Tiger, startled and uncertain, replied: “What blood!?

“Speak!!!”

“Hello!”

“Damn it!!”

“Third Team, Fourth Team, go to the Fifth Stronghold. I’ll go with the Second Team to the Sixth and Seventh Strongholds!”

“If there are any problems, send a signal immediately and enter Level One combat readiness!”

“Repeat, Green Ghost Tiger Team, enter Level One combat readiness!”

“Operation start!!!”

Inside the Fifth Stronghold.

Xiao Fan let out a breath; it seemed he had fooled them.

Mission continues.

He moved swiftly, condensing collapse particles in his left hand and pulling out the Slaughtering Demon Blade with his right!

He wanted to disguise himself as an alien!

He wanted to mislead the Green Ghost Tiger Team, making them believe that today’s slaughter was not carried out by the Human Race, but by another alien race!

This offered two benefits: first, he would be safer because he wouldn't be within the scope of suspicion.

Second, the Green Ghost Tiger Team would undoubtedly be enraged by this. Being backstabbed by their own kind on the front lines—Xiao Fan himself couldn't tolerate that, and anger would affect decision-making and actions, creating flaws.

But convincing the other party would be difficult.

Xiao Fan had only two relies!

First, collapse particles! This was a unique talent of the Black Demon Eye Clan, and currently, no one should know that he also possessed it!

Second, the Slaughtering Demon Blade.

This weapon also had another attribute: bloodsucking! It could transform the enemy's blood into his own strength in a short period.

This ability was almost non-existent among the Human Race, mostly originating from the Blood Race among the aliens.

Thinking of this, Xiao Fan’s expression turned sinister. He condensed collapse particles in his left hand and buried them beneath the ground of this Fifth Stronghold, like landmines, which would immediately detonate once the two subsequent teams arrived.

Xiao Fan was pressed for time, his heart involuntarily quickening because his Kong Wu Realm could clearly sense that two entire teams of people were approaching his location from two different directions.

Ten thousand meters…

He buried the second collapse particles, draining the blood of two aliens.

Eight thousand meters…

He buried the fourth collapse particles, draining two more aliens.

Six thousand meters…

He buried the sixth collapse particles, finally draining two more.

Go!

Xiao Fan moved swiftly, immediately withdrawing from this stronghold.

But he did not choose to hide himself; instead, he chose to proactively attack.

The Green Ghost Tiger Team dispatched the Fourth Team and the Third Team, two teams, to investigate this Fifth Stronghold.

The Fourth Team and the Third Team departed from different locations, one from the right and one from the left.

Xiao Fan now intended to directly rush to the right, to proactively ambush and kill the Fourth Team!

As long as he dealt with this Fourth Team, and then the collapse particles detonated and killed the Third Team, the completion rate of this mission would greatly increase!

Throughout the entire forest's strongholds, intense and urgent alarms blared, and countless drones flew out, soaring across the sky, searching every corner of the forest.

Xiao Fan was calm and silent.

The No Self Realm was fully activated, and the Earth Evasion technique was engaged, hiding him beneath the ground where the Fourth Team was bound to pass.

The killing of the Fourth Team had to be quick, ruthless, and precise; if they reacted and reported it, he would be completely finished.

To achieve this, Xiao Fan chose to directly activate the Air Demon King Form.

This form, which could only be maintained for a few seconds before, was now no problem to sustain for several minutes.

Furthermore, to conceal the highly unique Demonic Energy, he opted for internal Demon King Armor.

The Demon King Armor was black, and the Space Laws were white, so Xiao Fan's current appearance was a bizarre black and white mixture, almost no longer resembling a human.

But none of that mattered.

He only cared about the surging power within his body.

At this moment, he sensed it.

Eight auras were about to pass over his head.

Xiao Fan took a deep breath.

His opponents were well-trained elites, and at this moment, they were certainly surrounded by drones or cameras capable of recording everything at any time.

He had to be faster!

Faster than the camera's shutter!

Inhale, exhale.

Completely ready.

The Slaughtering Demon Blade was in hand.

He let the scarlet blood-Qi cover his entire body; the Slaughtering Demon Blade could not only disguise him as a “Blood Race” member but also enhance his strength to a certain extent!

Then!

Teleport!

At this moment, everyone in the Fourth Team was highly focused.

So, the instant Xiao Fan appeared and made his move, they immediately reacted, pressing the alarm and roaring, “Engage the enemy!”

But when they turned around to face the enemy, a team member had already fallen to the ground, dead with eyes wide open, with only the scarlet blood-Qi remaining in their sight.

Xiao Fan silently murmured, “The first one.”
