The Last Commander of the Red Alert

Chapter 468: The Performance Begins!

Chapter 468: The Performance Begins!

At this moment, around Small Mountain, dozens of figures appeared.

"How's it going? Are the Ghost Clan inside?" someone communicated through voice transmission.

"Yeah, based on my observations, those Ghost Clan are hiding in there. They've managed to conceal their aura to such a low level that I wouldn't have noticed if my senses weren't so keen," another person remarked with some amazement.

"Foolish Ghost Clan, they actually think such a simple plan can wipe out our high-ranking Humans!"

These individuals were among the strongest of the Humans. Even the weakest among them were at the 8th Order Early-Term level, and the strongest had reached Ninth-level Peak!

After realizing that the Ghost Clan was indeed plotting against the high-ranking Humans, they decided to turn the tables, pretending to fall into the trap and then annihilate the powerful Ghost Clan members.

Through their investigation, they had discovered that there were quite a number of these Ghost Clan elites, at least twenty of them, with three at the Ninth Order. If it weren't for their intention to wipe them out, how could the Ghost Clan have so many strong members?

"They would never have imagined that we were already aware of their intentions. What a bunch of fools," one person mocked.

Only one person furrowed their brow and said, "Have any of you considered who originally leaked that secret?"

This sentence left everyone speechless. In fact, after they returned, they had initiated their own intelligence systems to find out the source of the information, but despite their efforts, they hadn't found anything. They had gone in circles and ended up where they started.

It was strange. There had to be a sequence of events, but the timing of when they received the information was not significantly different. It was as if someone had told many of them at once.

Some suspected that it might be the work of the Ghost Clan, but this was immediately dismissed. If the Ghost Clan could use such a scheme to trap them, it was already a rare occurrence. They wouldn't have also revealed this information to them; once they arrived, the Ghost Clan's scheme would be ruined.

After some argument, the majority eventually prevailed, and they had come here.

"It doesn't matter who leaked the secret. What matters is that we're here, which means the majority of us have approved of this operation. We are the high-ranking Humans, and this also means our responsibility is much heavier. I believe no one wants this planet to be taken over by the Ghost Clan, right?" The Ninth-level Peak expert spoke resolutely, looking at the people around.

No one spoke. They had come here willingly because they didn't want Humans to perish. Otherwise, they would have left this place on a Warship long ago.

As high-ranking Humans, they all had at least one Warship at their disposal, capable of evacuating a portion of the population. But what then?

Wandering the cosmos without a fixed destination was not what they wanted to see.

According to their information, the nearest inhabited planet to Yan Yun Star was at least 10 light-years away. At this distance, they could spend decades or even centuries in transit, and that was in the most optimistic scenario. If the Warship encountered problems in space, their fate would be death.

Even if they managed to reach another planet, the information they had received indicated that other inhabited planets were facing various disasters, meaning they had nowhere to go.

Those who had left on Warships before were shortsighted. Short-term comfort didn't guarantee long-term safety.

Yan Yun Star was their home!

"Marshal, we all know the current situation. Only by defeating the Ghost Clan can we save Humans!"

"That's right, we have nothing in common with the Ghost Clan!"

The high-ranking Humans rallied together. They had witnessed the brutality of the Ghost Clan, and if this race were to rule Yan Yun Star, would there be any good days left for Humans?

Their struggle was not just for themselves but also for their descendants.

"Very well, let's proceed according to the plan. We must not let the Ghost Clan realize that we are aware of their scheme. Understand?" the marshal said.

"Understood."

Gradually, night fell, and the dozens of hidden Ghost Clan members below grew impatient. They had expected the high-ranking Humans to arrive in the past few days, but not a single one had shown up. What was going on?

"Could it be that the Humans have guessed our plan and are too afraid to come?"

"Impossible! This is the master plan within the master plan of Ghost Master. Humans are always so clever; they couldn't possibly have found out."

"Someone is coming!"

While they whispered to each other, a figure flew in from the distance and appeared in mid-air.

"This should be the place. The information says the Star Core is stored here. Haha, if I get the Star Core, I'll have a chance to break through the Ninth Order and become the first-class strong among Humans. When the time comes, I want to see who dares to disrespect me!" The person in mid-air laughed manically.

Just as he was about to descend, another figure appeared. "Zheng Ye, what are you doing here? Didn't you say you didn't believe this rumor at all?"

The person who had been discovered turned to look, and a hint of embarrassment crossed his face. "I came here just to verify, and besides, you came too. Who knows who spread this false information? Only a fool would believe it!"

The embarrassment on the other person's face vanished quickly, and he spoke in a low voice, "Since we're both here, let's give it a try. If we really obtain the Star Core, may the best man win."

"Alright, we're brothers after all. Of course..." Zheng Ye's words were cut short as he suddenly struck. The other person seemed taken aback. His face turned pale. "Zheng Ye, you dare!"

"Hehe, what do I have to fear? This is the Star Core. As long as I get the Star Core, I'll have a chance to become a Small Galaxy-level expert in the future. When that happens, I'll roam the universe as I please. Why should I care about the fate of Yan Yun Star?"

The two of them began to fight, and their clashes could be heard from afar. The Ghost Clan members below watched their battle as if it were a performance.

"I heard Humans are greedy creatures. Whenever they find something valuable, even if it's a close friend, they will find a way to kill them. It seems to be true now."

"Hehe, the performance is quite impressive. If we didn't know, we might believe it. Let's not act for now; let's quietly watch."

"Humans are a bunch of fools. Only Ghost Master is a true genius. He actually predicted Humans' reactions."

The two fighters above had no idea that their performance had been completely exposed. If they knew, they would probably exclaim, "This isn't scientifically possible!"

Since when had the Ghost Clan become so clever?

After a while, the two fighters grew puzzled. They had been so obvious in their performance, so why hadn't the Ghost Clan made a move? The supporting cast hadn't appeared either. How could they continue the act? (To be continued...)
