239 Everyone’s Differences (II)
Nobody onboard the train could tell anyone about Lin Ye’s battle and his biggest trump card, which had turned the tables for them.
And so,
They had casually said that the half-beast did not know how his skills worked, and he did not have any purification or dispel skills to counter Lin Ye’s attack. He also had many control skills, so he was kited to death by his own various debuffs.
Although some people didn’t believe this, they didn’t ask too much. Instead, they tacitly closed their mouths.
After all…
!!
Their hearts were now filled with admiration for Lin Ye.
Whether it was Lin Ye’s ability to kill the werewolf by himself or his sacrifice of using special skills to stall the enemy and make everyone retreat first, they were all in awe of Lin Ye. They wanted to immediately call Lin Ye their big brother.
How could they suspect their savior of such ridiculous suspicions?
Or even to dig deeper into his secrets or background?
Instead…
They discussed how they would deal with the three university students who had become Fallens.
Everyone had a different opinion.
Some of them wanted to follow the original plan and wait for the Professional Alliance’s troops to come. They wanted to kill the other Fallens who were responsible for receiving the three of them and take away the special Abyssal Demon’s important treasure they were escorting. Then, they would let the three “undiscovered” Fallen return to school safely.
Meanwhile, some people felt that the half-beast assassin was a sign of a bad omen. The enemy might have noticed the human’s arrangement. So, they needed to make the first move and kill the three university students before they could cause any more trouble.
“Didn’t you guys notice?”
“The three Fallens were also shocked and terrified by the werewolf’s appearance. They obviously did not realize that the Black Beast Alliance had such an assassination plan. They were also kept in the dark!”
“I noticed”
“But you can’t tell if the abyssal demons behind the evil Fallens know about this or if the three of them are secretly putting on a show. In fact, they changed their original plan a long time ago and changed to a group of evil Fallens who are transporting their targeted object.”
“We have no way of proving whether these three people are smoke bombs deliberately released by the abyssal demons or not.”
“Whether the targeted object is not on them, but somewhere else. They are here to investigate our movements in order to attract the assassins of the Black Beast Alliance!”
“If another group of powerful otherworld creatures comes, these three people will quietly open the gate and let the enemy board the train to attack us.”
“Can you bear the losses?”
“You have to be confident and ready for the results of your decisions,”
“If you’re wrong, killing them now will definitely expose the fact that we humans have discovered them transporting the targeted object and thus expose the entire undercover organization in the Abyss’ underground palace.”
“When it comes to that point, all the preparations we’ve made over the years will be in vain.”
“Can you bear the loss?”
“…”
After listening for a long time.
Lin Ye roughly understood both parties’ arguments.
According to the original “script”, Lin Ye had already died in Hive. Aside from Gu Yun, the other three university students had obtained the “targeted object” from the abyss in Jiang City and would take the military train back to their own cities.
But this was just a pretense.
Their real plan was to hand over the abyssal treasure to a group of other Fallens who were responsible for receiving them when the train was halfway through its journey. Then, they would return to their university without anyone knowing and continue to lurk in the human world and society like obedient babies.
The Professional Alliance, who relied on the spies from the abyss to intercept this information, had set up an inescapable net.
While these people were carrying out the transaction, they would suddenly appear from the dark and take away the abyss treasure. At the same time, they would pin the blame for the information leak on an unlucky Abyssal Demon. This would allow Black Fist’s real spies to obtain an “alibi “-like proof and continue their undercover missions and intelligence gathering missions.
But now….
Lin Ye’s revival and the sudden appearance of the half-beast assassin messed up the “script “.
No one knows how to proceed.
Were the three Fallens carrying out the original “transporting abyssal treasures” mission? Did they know about the otherworld creature’s assassination? Did they deliberately create an opportunity for the werewolf assassin to open the door and get on the carriage? Like… Did they place a rare item that could teleport the enemy on the carriage, or did they leave a magic mark on themselves that could teleport the enemy remotely?
Assuming that these three Fallens were completely out of the loop and didn’t know anything about this, then they just happened to clash with the Black Beast Alliance’s plan.
But if everyone had assumed wrong and didn’t kill them now, who knew if a bigger group of assassins from the otherworld would suddenly appear in the next carriage and attack Lin Ye? Everyone on the train would be in danger.
They would just recreate the tragedy that the level 50 assassin, Jing San, the wolf hiding in a sheep’s pen, had created:
A frenzied massacre.
If the opposite were to occur…
If they had assumed that the three of them knew the inside story, it would mean that they knew that the human Professionals were secretly ambushing them and that they deliberately boarded the train to create an opportunity for the Black Beast Alliance to “spy” and assassinate them….
Only to find out later that they had assumed wrong after they got rid of the three “spies” from the Abyss…
That the whole incident was a one-man operation planned by the Werewolf Kingdom and had nothing to do with the Abyssal Demons…. If the three evil degenerates who should not have died were dead, their group of spies planted in the Abyss would fall into an extremely dangerous situation.
The Lord of the Abyss would definitely suspect that someone had leaked the secrets of the abyssal treasure.
The key point was…
As long as the three university students could return to the university safely, the Abyssal Demon would not suspect that Black Fist and the others were spies. However, if the three university students all died, it would mean that Black Fist and the others had leaked the information, thus putting a big neon sign on their heads. Their actions would be more restricted.
Lin Ye thought about it for a moment, before deciding to voice his thoughts.
“I think…”
“It’s better to keep the three of them for now.”
“According to my judgment of the werewolf’s skill mechanism, this guy has a superior ability similar to invisibility in the dark. It’s silent and extremely difficult to be discovered.”
“It’s very likely that the three Fallens didn’t put them on the train on purpose. The assassin probably sneaked onto the train a few days in advance and hid inside the military train until we got on.”
“But,”
“If the three of them knew about the existence of this half-beast assassin…”
“They wouldn’t have to take the same train as me. They could have waited for me to be killed by the half-beast assassin before taking the train behind me to leave Jiang City. This way, they won’t be caught up in this whole complicated vortex that will definitely expose their identities as Fallens.
Lin Ye paused a little, before continuing,
“Even if I’m wrong,”
“It doesn’t matter.”
“That half-beast Assassin’s strength is terrifying.”
“Truthfully, it would be impossible for him to fail the mission when he faced us all alone, including me. At that time, I wasn’t 100% sure that I could win against him.
“So,”
“It’s very likely that the enemy didn’t have any other backup plans.”
“These three are only level 25, and we’ve already figured out their identities as Fallens. They can’t do anything to us with just the three of them. We have to rely on the power of other creatures from the other world to do so.”
“It’s fine even if we just leave them be.”
“But what if the enemy still has a backup plan?” Someone asked.
“What if another level 50 Professionals like that werewolf appear? What if this time, they’ll bring two– or even more? What if they all will board the train and then—” Another person added.
“If that’s the case…”
“No matter where you put these three Fallens within the carriage would make a difference,”
“Since the other party is willing to send so many level-50 Professionals to their deaths, they are obviously willing to use rare destructive items and magic scrolls. No matter how strong the train’s defenses are, they will definitely not be able to withstand those powerful items and magic scrolls.”
“They didn’t need to keep those three traitors, whose identities were easily discovered, as their key to break into the carriage.”
“It’s too risky.”
“It’s very likely that we’ll only waste our resources and give them a perfect assassination opportunity instead.”
