Chapter 1 The First Force's Combat Power
"What level is the first force's combat power at? Won't all of them be at the leader of the first sequence level?" Lin Feng asked half-jokingly.
He didn't believe it from the bottom of his heart. If the first force was like that, what was the point of him fighting? He might as well pack up and go home!
Luo Yongtian chuckled, "How could that be? Do you think people of that level are like cabbages!"
"Regarding this, don't worry, the first force is not as unreachable as you imagine."
Lin Feng smiled indifferently upon hearing this, but in the next second, Luo Yongtian changed the subject.
"However, although there aren't that many, as far as I know, there are still three to five people with leader-level strength..."
Lin Feng was taken aback, then frowned.
"So many?"
Good heavens, he said it wasn't like cabbages, but isn't this pretty much the same!
"Yes, didn't I say it? The first force is too close to Zero."
"Some resources and special missions are handled or issued by the first force."
"It's no secret that the first force has multiple leader-level combatants."
"Those leader-level individuals are likely there to fill in when a certain faction unexpectedly loses a leader."
"Just like now, if you kill the Joseph brothers and the dwarf, the first force should have a replacement."
"But even if it's a replacement, it's a considerable cost and will have a certain impact on the overall stability of the Black Robe."
"So what you need to consider is finding a reason to perfectly shut up the first force."
Saying this, Luo Yongtian shook his head with some regret, "You've been a leader for too short a time, otherwise you should know all this."
Lin Feng felt a bit numb and wanted to curse.
"I have to shut them up? It was Joseph who made the first move!"
This information from Luo Yongtian made Lin Feng's mood a little unpleasant.
The first force actually had replacement leader-level combat power.
This invisibly meant that Lin Feng would have more leaders to deal with.
Alright, it's indeed a large organization, and the rules are much more complete than he imagined!
It was a bit beyond his expectations, but still within an acceptable range.
Killing the Joseph brothers and the dwarf, even if the first force replaced them, wouldn't change the fact that the Black Robe lost three leader-level combatants of the first sequence!
"You can defeat them and let them live, and the first force won't say anything."
"But if your goal is to annihilate them all, then the first force won't stand by," Luo Yongtian analyzed.
"If things go according to our plan, the first force might initiate a council against you."
"Just like the council Joseph initiated before."
"And because no one wants to antagonize or even oppose the first force, once the council is convened, you will face all the leader-level combatants."
"Hmm? All the leaders?" Lin Feng was not alarmed by this news, but rather delighted.
A sudden impulse surged in his heart, and his eyes began to gleam.
"If, I mean, if!"
"How much time will I have left after the council passes?"
Facing all the leader-level combatants of the first sequence? Wasn't this setting up Lin Feng for his grand finale?
After Lin Feng killed the Joseph brothers and the dwarf, only the Sixth Force and the First Force would remain as leaders.
Luo Yongtian and Egar were rebels. Counting the First Force with five leader-level individuals at most, plus the Sixth Force, that would be six.
His side had three, and they would fight six.
One person fighting two was no problem for Lin Feng, but he wasn't sure about Luo Yongtian and the others.
Luo Yongtian explained, "If the council passes, you will have one month."
"During these three months, the first force will conduct another assessment of you."
"If within three months, you bring some undeniable and significant contribution to the Black Robe, then the first force will keep you, and you will remain the leader of the Fifth Force."
"If the assessment is not passed, all leaders will launch an attack on you..."
Well, what a humane system.
However, this "undeniable and significant contribution" should be very difficult to achieve.
It didn't matter, Lin Feng had no intention of achieving it anyway.
Three months would be enough for him to prepare a batch of potions, for the Kryptonians to grow stronger, and for the entire mechanical lifeform race to be activated.
With these combat powers, Lin Feng would be able to reveal his full hand.
Seeing Lin Feng deep in thought, Luo Yongtian pondered for a moment and asked tentatively, "I say, you're not planning to find an excuse and just go head-to-head with the first force, are you?"
Lin Feng chuckled.
"Who knows? Didn't you say that even without an excuse, I still have three months?!"
"If I don't find an excuse, the first force will have a reason to attack me, won't they?"
Hiss!!!
Luo Yongtian was stunned for a moment, then gasped.
"No, are you planning to eliminate the leaders, and the first force as well?"
"You lunatic," Luo Yongtian exclaimed.
Good heavens, did Shanhai have some kind of intermittent madness?
Did he understand the value of six or seven omniverse-level combatants?
Lin Feng smiled indifferently.
"What? Is there a problem?"
"In our line of work, don't we all live with our heads on our belts?"
"If you want to kill others, you must be prepared to be killed. Isn't this common sense?"
Luo Yongtian chuckled wryly at Lin Feng's words.
"What you said is correct."
"But the higher a person climbs and the more money they have, the more they cherish their life!"
"And eliminating so many leaders is not as simple as you think!"
"Not to mention the immense destruction that would be caused by so many omniverse-level combatants fighting each other."
"Even if you succeed in the end, there's Zero behind the first force, have you forgotten?"
Luo Yongtian sighed.
"I've been hearing you talk about Zero. Do you have any more information about him?" Lin Feng asked.
He knew that Zero was the main system of the Black Robe, but he knew nothing about Zero's combat power.
But he guessed it shouldn't be weak.
"Zero."
"I don't know his specific strength."
"Since I joined the Black Robe, I've rarely seen Zero make a move."
"But undoubtedly, he should be above all of us!"
Lin Feng tilted his head, "May I ask the old man's age?"
Luo Yongtian shot Lin Feng a sideways glance.
"I have lived for over seven thousand years."
Lin Feng exclaimed, "Holy cow, that old?!"
Luo Yongtian rolled his eyes impatiently.
Damn it, didn't Shanhai know what politeness was?!
"What business is it of yours how old I am?!"
"I joined here when I was a hundred years old. For over seven thousand years, I've only heard a few words about Zero."
"If you truly stand against all the leaders, then you can basically start a new life..."
