Chapter 331: Chapter 79: Play it Safe, Retreat First!_2

“Boss, what’s going on here?”

Assad, without Link’s reservations, directly inquired on the team channel.

Knowing that Assad was asking on behalf of Link, Boss Otis was not annoyed, instead, he explained:

“When we arrived, they were already in-fighting.

We captured two informers and used the Bewitching Heart Technique on them to learn the truth.

The fairies who succeeded in surviving the highly risky biochemical transformation and enhancement called themselves the ‘New Generation’. For some reason, they gradually changed their nature and started to look down upon regular fairies.

The quarrel between the two groups of fairies escalated and eventually led to mutual killings.

The second prince of the fairy royal family failed to suppress the mutiny, instead, he was severely injured by a fairy noble.

The situation got out of control and developed into the current state.”

Link knew that Assad had asked for him and gratefully looked at Assad as a token of his gratitude.

“Humph!”

Lokan suddenly spoke out, sounding quite displeased.

The two informers were his captives.

After Boss Otis used the Bewitching Heart Technique, the interrogation was conducted by Lokan.

In short, this information was hard-earned by Lokan, and yet Link got to know it for free.

This made Lokan feel somewhat annoyed.

Very annoyed.

Boss Otis ignored Wizard Lokan’s dissatisfaction. He gestured at Link toward the two fairies lying on the ground, one regular and one enhanced, and said: “Link, study them and see if you can find out the cause of the changes in the enhanced fairies.”

“Yes.”

Link readily accepted the task.

He first used the wood system witchcraft skills to build a simple dissection table and placed the enhanced fairy on it.

Then he took off his backpack, took out dissection tools and biochemical testing equipment, and started a comprehensive check on the enhanced fairy.

The wizards present all had experience of dissections;

They weren’t interested in the slightly bloody and cruel dissection process.

They were just slightly curious about the test results.

The reason they waited for Link to come over to start the examination was not because they had forgotten the relevant knowledge and techniques, but each had their own specialty.

The examination results they made might not be as accurate as those of Link.

Link worked efficiently, and in less than 20 minutes, he finished inspecting and examining the enhanced fairy and found two highly probable reasons.

After careful consideration, Link reported:

“Captain, the enhancement of these fairies is incomplete. The overconsumption of vitality during the enhancement process has indeed affected their will.

It manifested as maintaining rationality, but emotions have changed, amplifying some dark aspects, such as becoming more indifferent, arrogant, or selfish.

In addition, I noticed a special aura fluctuation nearby, which has a strong influence on the enhanced fairies, as if provoking the killing intent of the enhanced fairies.”

After a brief pause, Link tentatively put forward a guess: “The source of this special aura fluctuation may be the sleeping Fairy King.”

“Hmm.”

Boss Otis responded and turned to ask Assad, “Did you sense it? What do you think of Link’s deduction? Is it valid?”

After carefully sensing it, Assad nodded and said, “I agree with Link’s deduction. In addition, I think this may be a kind of ritual. Abyss demons often use slaughter to recover from injuries. The Fairy King has traded with the abyss demons and might have this ability.”

“Report this situation to the Command Post and ask for the next steps.”

Boss Otis made arrangements.

Assad immediately closed his eyes, adjusted his mind and body, and entered long-distance communication mode to contact the front line command post using the unique means of a True Spirit Wizard.

Soon after, Assad finished his report and received a reply.

He opened his eyes and said: “The front line command post asks if our team has the ability to eliminate the Fairy King. If possible, take beheading action; if not, interrupt the ritual first and wait for support.”

After careful consideration, Boss Otis decided to play it safe: “Reply to the front line command post that we will mainly interrupt the ritual and beheading as the secondary; request for support to be dispatched as a backup.”

“Yes.”

Assad responded, then closed his eyes again to contact the front line command post at long distance.

The approval for the action came down quickly, and support was dispatched, led by another Tier 3 wizard from the intelligence department.

The special team checked their condition and equipment, confirmed there were no errors, and began the operation.

The first move was still the stealth approach that Link was very familiar with.

This tactic is highly popular in any world.

While waiting for the rendezvous, Boss Otis, along with Lokan, “Black Cat” Betty, the twins Onyx and Mark, had captured more than two informers for questioning.

They also identified the terrain of the Fairy King’s Sleeping Ground.

The special team bypassed the two groups of fairies fighting fiercely and swiftly infiltrated the labyrinthine building deep underground.

A person’s nickname is not gained for nothing.

“Black Cat” Betty was called so because she had cat-like eyes, cat-like sensitivity, and cat-like intuition.

Any traps or pitfalls in the underground labyrinth could not escape her eyes and were detected one by one.

Either they ignored, destroyed, or circumvented them.

To the fairies of the Fairy World, the highly concealed and lethal traps in the layers of the labyrinth were virtually non-existent in front of the seven wizards of the special team.
