Chapter 125 Hunter and Prey
"Who are you? How could virtuous people collude with criminals?"
"What? Wasn't he sent by you?"
Serena's eyes widened as well.
"I'm a criminal. Someone issued a task to me, to rescue Serena. We risked our lives to escape."
"Why should I believe you?"
"Because of this."
Wan Lei produced the core hub in his hand and threw it directly to Tanya.
Tanya caught it, examined it carefully, and asked,
"What is this?"
"This is the core hub. I went there this time to get this thing. As a result, I was captured. They rescued me and brought out the core hub."
Hearing Serena say this, Tanya lowered her spear, but her eyes still held suspicion and vigilance.
"Even so, we can't easily trust you. You should know that for underground secret activists like us, it is essential to maintain the necessary vigilance.
Alright, put Serena down first and hand her over to us. Whether you are reliable remains to be seen."
Wan Lei was annoyed and threw Serena to the black-clothed man beside him.
"Humph, we risked our lives to save your people and helped you retrieve important things, yet you still doubt us?"
Wan Lei was a little angry and stepped forward to argue with her. Fang Xiaoyu grabbed him and shook her head.
"Let's go. Our mission is complete. There's no point in staying here. Let's leave and wait for the next mission."
Wan Lei nodded, glared at Tanya resentfully, grabbed Fang Xiaoyu, and turned to leave.
"You can't leave."
Tanya's voice came from behind.
"Heh,"
Wan Lei sneered, turning back,
"What? You can force us to stay?"
"Humph, how am I to know if you are going to inform the virtuous people, telling them that this is our secret base."
Wan Lei was furious, frowning and shouting,
"You…"
"Yes, they are."
A familiar voice came from the sky.
Wan Lei was stunned, as if he had fallen into an ice cave.
He was very familiar with this voice, it was Ying Gou.
The people on the ground looked up and saw three virtuous people exuding a strong pure aura standing in mid-air, looking at them with a sneer.
"As expected, you specifically led the virtuous people here! What else do you have to say!"
Tanya glared at Wan Lei and Fang Xiaoyu, gnashing her teeth, her spear pointed straight at Wan Lei's brow.
"I said, I didn't lead them here. Who knows how they followed us!"
Wan Lei turned around and shouted angrily, his face extremely gloomy.
Their plan was seamless, how did the other party follow them?
"No plan is seamless. As long as it's a person, there will be mistakes and loopholes. We may have overlooked some details."
"Boy."
The three slowly landed, Ying Gou's face with a satisfied smile,
"You did a good job this time, not only retrieved the core hub, but also wiped out a secret base of criminals. You are really smart.
I will ask the Great Virtuous One to reward you. This time your merit is not small, maybe you can become a virtuous person again.
At that time, I will help you plead and ask the Great Virtuous One to help you. Your wife has also made great contributions this time and is estimated to become a Middle Virtuous Person.
Alright, you two have worked hard, just leave this to us and go down to rest."
Hearing this, Tanya was even more convinced that Wan Lei was from the virtuous people, and immediately no longer hesitated, her spear pierced straight towards Wan Lei's brow.
Wan Lei grabbed the head of the spear, pushed it hard, and pushed Tanya away,
"You fool, can you use your brain to think? If I were their person, why would I hand over the core hub to you? Wouldn't it be easier to let them come out and kill you? Don't fall for their trick!"
"Stop talking nonsense, you scum among criminals, I will drag you down with me even if I die today!"
"Little brother, stop trying to be brave, come back quickly, just leave her to us, you have worked hard enough."
Ying Gou "anxiously" wanted Wan Lei to come back.
"Shut up, don't you just want me and her to fight to the death, so you can reap the benefits? I won't fall for your trick!"
Wan Lei put on his armor and was about to kill Ying Gou, Fang Xiaoyu grabbed him again,
"Let's go, no one here will believe us anymore. Their life and death are their own business. We don't need to risk our lives for these people who don't believe us.
These people can't stop you, take me away."
"But… but, if we just leave like this, these criminals are no match for the virtuous people at all, they will definitely be killed, and the core hub will also fall into the hands of the virtuous people.
Then our… what is the point of our previous efforts?"
"That's just a mission, they are all passers-by, not even living people, they are all fake, maybe we will disappear here once we leave, why take it so seriously.
Let's go."
Wan Lei resentfully glared at Ying Gou, glared at Tanya again, spread his wings behind him, picked up Fang Xiaoyu, and was about to leave.
"Fourth mission, protect the criminals, defeat the three Great Virtuous People, mission completed, you can get the Immortal Realm Saint-level Divine Power, Wind Summoning, mission failed, obliteration."
Wan Lei heard the mission sound in his ear.
And at this moment, countless pure auras rose from the surrounding sky, gathering towards this side.
Looking closely, they were all virtuous people.
"Hahahaha, boy, it's too late to run now, otherwise why would I talk so much nonsense with you to delay time?
By the way, I forgot to tell you that you released all the prisoners to wreak havoc in the city, and I sent all the law enforcement teams to quell the chaos.
However, I didn't move a single soldier in the city."
Seeing Wan Lei stop, Ying Gou smiled sinisterly and continued,
"You said that the most brilliant hunter often appears in the form of prey, and the roles of prey and hunter will randomly change.
Now, I tell you, I am the hunter."
The surrounding troops quickly approached, and Ying Gou became more and more proud. This feeling of having everything under control made this wise man a little elated.
"By the way, let me tell you, you are very puzzled how we found you so quickly, right.
You cut off the iron chain in the middle of Serena's handcuffs before, but you didn't destroy the handcuffs on her hands.
Inside, there is my locator."
"What? Damn it!"
Serena's face changed drastically, and she looked at the handcuffs on her hand in disbelief,
"It's me… I harmed everyone!"
Wan Lei returned to Tanya and Serena, and at this time, even if Tanya was stupid, she knew that she had wronged Wan Lei.
"No, this is all my fault, I will… protect you."
