157: Calculations from all parties!

Bai Li Pang Pang and Cao Yuan sat in a small rubber dinghy. After bidding farewell to Molly, the two paddled the dinghy across the sea towards the Zhaijie Institute.

Cao Yuan looked at Bai Li Pang Pang and asked, "Pang Pang, it's just the two of us now. Tell me, what exactly is your perfect plan?"

Bai Li Pang Pang smiled mysteriously, "When the cart reaches the mountain, there will be a way."

Cao Yuan: ???

"Uh, could you elaborate?" Cao Yuan asked.

"I already said it, when the cart reaches the mountain, there will be a way!"

Cao Yuan's face was full of black lines. He now had an urge to pull out a fruit knife and, as an Incarnation of the Black King, hack Bai Li Pang Pang to death.

"You're not going to tell me that once we reach the Zhaijie Institute, a solution will naturally appear, are you?" Cao Yuan asked with a tone of disappointment.

"Cao Zei knows me best!" Bai Li Pang Pang comforted him, "Don't worry, once the arrow is shot, there's no turning back. It's too late for us to go back now."

"You really are..." Cao Yuan now wished he could slap himself. How did he get a hot head and come along with this guy?

From here to the Zhaijie Institute, it would take an unknown amount of time for the two of them to paddle there manually.

...

Inside the Zhaijie Institute, Xie Yu sat in his office. He lit a cigarette and looked out at the waves through the window.

A day ago, the Master received an order from the Night Watcher Headquarters to carry out an urgent mission. Before leaving, he handed all the affairs of the Zhaijie Institute over to him to manage.

But just a short while ago, Xie Yu received an order from Whisper to immediately activate all the hidden agents in the Zhaijie Institute and simultaneously reveal to the Night Watchers the intelligence that the Ancient God Church was going to attack the Zhaijie Institute.

Xie Yu couldn't understand. Some time ago, Whisper obtained the Zhaijie Institute's defense map from him, and now Whisper wanted him to reveal such information to the Night Watchers.

Since the Ancient God Church wanted to attack the Zhaijie Institute, why would Whisper want him to do this?

But since Whisper had given the order, he definitely had to carry it out.

This morning, he had already instructed the Fourth Seat, Sixth Seat, and Twelfth Seat to prepare, and he had also obtained the highest authority for the Zhaijie Institute's security System.

Thinking of this, he picked up the phone on his desk and dialed the dedicated line to the Night Watcher Headquarters.

After two "beep-beep" sounds, the call was answered.

"Hello! This is Xie Yu, the acting director of the Zhaijie Institute. I have important intelligence to report to the Headquarters..."

In Shangjing City, at the Night Watcher Headquarters, Zuo Qing hastily approached Ye Fan's office door with a document.

"Knock knock!"

"Report!"

Ye Fan's voice came from inside the office, "Come in!"

Zuo Qing pushed open the door and placed the folder in front of Ye Fan. "Commander, there's an urgent situation I need to report to you."

Seeing Zuo Qing so flustered, Ye Fan knew that what he brought was certainly not a minor matter.

"The Ancient God Church is going to take action against the Zhaijie Institute? And Song Zhong is in charge of this operation?"

After reading the contents of the document, Ye Fan's brows furrowed unconsciously.

"Zuo Qing, is the source of this intelligence reliable?" Ye Fan asked.

"The intelligence was provided by Xie Yu, the acting director of the Zhaijie Institute. He said that suspicious individuals have been found on the sea near the Zhaijie Institute recently," Zuo Qing said.

"Oh?" Ye Fan closed the folder. "If this intelligence is true, they really know how to pick their timing, choosing to make their move precisely when I've pulled the Master away."

"I can't believe that despite our increased pressure on the Ancient God Church, they dare to be so presumptuous. In my opinion, this might be their counterattack against us," Zuo Qing said.

"That possibility cannot be ruled out, but is Song Zhong really leading this operation?"

Regarding Song Zhong's ability assessment, the Night Watcher Headquarters attached great importance to it after the Cangnan incident.

The opponent displayed God-level combat power in Cangnan City, but the Night Watcher's assessment department was unable to determine his true strength.

Because after the soul extradition ended, Song Zhong's Mental Energy dropped to the level of an ordinary Klein.

However, the Night Watchers currently have no way of confirming whether this situation was intentional on the opponent's part or genuinely so.

"Commander, I believe we must dispatch a Human Ceiling to guard the Zhaijie Institute."

Ye Fan was still thinking. The Zhaijie Institute is a special area, where not only death row inmates are held, but also observation subjects like Lin Qi Ye.

Now that he had received intelligence about an attack on the Zhaijie Institute, Ye Fan's consideration was to believe it rather than not.

However, the Master was occupied and couldn't be pulled away. Currently, the only Human Ceilings that could be dispatched, besides himself, were the Great Xia Sword Saint Zhou Ping.

"Alright, Zuo Qing, go notify Zhou Ping and the Spirit Medium Squad to go to the Zhaijie Institute."

Zuo Qing had already anticipated this in his heart when he arrived.

Among the Great Xia Night Watchers' current five Human Ceilings, Zhou Ping is undoubtedly the strongest in terms of combat power.

Even if Song Zhong were to unleash God-level power again, Zhou Ping would be able to contend with him.

With the addition of the Spirit Medium Squad, Zuo Qing finally breathed a sigh of relief.

...

In Huaihai City, in an inconspicuous coffee shop, Whisper, dressed in a swallow-tailed coat, was sitting and conversing with Qian Mo.

"Why did you think of inviting me for coffee?" Qian Mo asked.

"Heh heh, I have a business deal recently, I wonder if you're interested in participating."

"Oh? Tell me about it!" Qian Mo took a sip of coffee, then dropped a few sugar cubes into it.

"Song Zhong is planning to target the Zhaijie Institute recently, isn't he? Aren't you interested in joining forces with me to..."

Whisper drew a line across his neck with his hand, making a throat-slitting gesture.

"Oh? Whisper, I have to say something about you. He's also doing it for the development of the Church. What you're doing isn't very appropriate, is it?"

Whisper sneered, "Qian Mo, have you heard? Song Zhong caused a lot of havoc in Cangnan back then!"

"I heard. What about it?" Qian Mo didn't know what Whisper was up to.

"With the Realm of a Klein, one can kill a God. Aren't you interested in knowing how Song Zhong obtained this power?"

Qian Mo put down his coffee and stared at Whisper intently.

"Haha, now that you mention it, I am quite curious as well."

Seeing that Qian Mo had taken the bait, Whisper lowered his voice and said, "If you are willing to help me, once we capture Song Zhong and extract the secrets from him, I am willing to share them with you."

"Sounds good, but what if Yue Huai finds out about this kind of backstabbing? You should be able to see that he values Song Zhong very much," Qian Mo voiced his concerns.

"It's fine. Song Zhong attacked the Zhaijie Institute and was unfortunately severely wounded by the Night Watchers. You and I were too late to rescue him, leading to Song Zhong's death. Isn't all of this very logical?" Whisper finished speaking, watching Qian Mo's reaction.

A strange gleam flashed in Qian Mo's eyes, then the corners of his mouth turned up. "Indeed, it's reasonable and logical!"
