Chapter 837: Chapter 834 Inquiry

Another person scanned the area with a glance and couldn’t help but reveal a smile on their face.

"We were just complaining about the meager pickings of mosquito meat, but now look, two Level 3 New Humans, eighteen Level 2 New Humans, and countless Level 1 New Humans."

"How much Yajin could that be worth?"

"Who cares, let’s do this. If we’re slow, the Peace Party’s big shots will catch up to us."

The Level 4 New Humans didn’t care in the least, showing no regard for the Peace Party soldiers rushing to their aid. Staring at the army of hundreds, each of them exchanged a glance. Their bodies shivered like half illusions before disappearing from the spot entirely.

The arriving Peace Party soldiers, seeing corpse after corpse lying in pools of blood, were nearly bursting with rage. But the next moment, the soldier at the forefront, as if hit by some enormous force, went "boom," and suddenly four or five soldiers were sent flying!

Among them, the Level 3 New Humans were the first to be attacked—and it was by four Level 4 New Human Stronghouses all at once!

Suddenly, the whole street reeked of blood.

The weaker Peace Party soldiers nearby were blasted away by the powerful auras of the Level 4 New Humans. The Level 3 New Human walking at the forefront was surrounded and killed by several Level 4 New Humans without even getting a chance to fight back!

"Mine!"

"It’s mine, damn it!"

"Back off! I clearly killed him!"

"You’re full of shit!"

With the death of this Level 3 New Human, they started fighting over the spoils.

"Stop arguing, watch the time, let’s deal with the rest first!"

Someone said, and the four stronghouses, without a pit of hesitation, picked up weapons dropped by Peace Party soldiers and unleashed a fierce assault on the patrolling troops amidst a battlefield alight with lasers!

The battle was over in about a minute, leaving behind a ground littered with bodies; the pungent smell of blood was enough to make one nauseous.

Photographing the bodies and claiming their spoils as quickly as possible, the four rapidly evacuated from the scene, leaving the survivors on both sides dumbfounded.

What was the meaning of this?

Who would dare lay a hand on the Peace Party?

Soon after the events took place, they were known by the higher-ups of the Peace Party. Not long after, Xu Haishui, the vice-president of the Peace Party, arrived at the scene with a squad of soldiers. Seeing the bodies strewn all over, murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

"What happened?"

"Something’s not right about this. From what we’ve learned from witnesses, it was four Level 4 or above New Humans who attacked them."

"Four Level 4 New Humans attacked our people, how many died?"

"I’ve tallied it up, a total of a hundred and thirty-six people are dead."

Xu Haishui narrowed his eyes, feeling that something was off, and just as he was about to speak, a soldier beside him said, "Vice-president, the President has arrived."

Upon hearing these words, Xu Haishui turned and looked back, just in time to see Tang Ye and Hatred walking toward him.

"What happened?"

Tang Ye asked immediately upon arriving. His gaze swept over the countless bodies, and his brows furrowed involuntarily.

"These people were killed."

"Who did it?" Tang Ye asked again, scanning the surroundings. He had only just learned of this incident. By now, the Peace Party had absolute control over the United District, and everything related to the Peace Party carried a whiff of nobility.

He had believed that by now, nobody would dare challenge the Peace Party, but it seemed there were countless who sought death in this world!

It was not important that a few members of the Peace Party died, but that someone had attacked his subordinates for no reason. Did they not take the Peace Party seriously?

"Reporting to the Marshal, everyone involved in the battle has been killed. Our current leads are all from the testimonies of survivors who witnessed everything. According to them, four Level 4 New Humans suddenly appeared and attacked the escorting personnel while the prison car was en route. Since there were no high-level New Humans present, the casualties were heavy."

A soldier briefed Tang Ye on the situation.

"Where’s the prison car?"

"It’s been driven to the POW Camp."

"Did anyone inside go missing?"

"No, and that’s what’s odd. It seems like those four Level 4 New Humans were just there to kill, not to save anyone. Even the locks on the prison car were left completely undamaged."

"So they weren’t rescuing anyone, just killing? What was their motive?"

Tang Ye was puzzled. He walked over to a corpse, examined the wound, then turned to look at other bodies. The lethal strikes on each body were precise and efficient, evidently the work of someone often engaged in such brutality.

"Marshal, the appearance of four Level 4 New Humans to attack Peace Party members indicates there’s a premeditated plot at work, likely the doing of some organization," Hatred suggested at this point.

"Then who do you think it could be?" Tang Ye asked.

Hatred shook his head, "The larger rebel forces have been extinguished, and their strong have all fallen. As for other rebel forces, most have already submitted and surrendered their resources. The remaining ones who haven’t clearly stated their stance simply don’t have the capability to produce four Level 4 New Humans to attack some foot soldiers, and besides, the remaining rebel forces don’t have that many Level 4 New Humans."

To Hatred, those who died were indeed just foot soldiers of the Peace Party; killing them did not really harm the organization.

"So, you mean it’s not the rebels, but the original underground forces, acting out of vengeance against the Peace Party?"

"We can’t rule that out," said Hatred.

"President," Xu Haishui spoke up, "I have a question. If Level 4 New Humans made a move against these people, they must have had a motive, right?"

Tang Ye nodded, "Exactly, that’s the strangest part. They have no motive. Four Level 4 New Humans killing a bunch of meaningless people—it looks like they just wanted to intimidate us. But just a few Level 4 New Humans?"

The tone in Tang Ye’s voice gave Hatred a jolt. He suddenly recalled the content he had seen on paper the other day. Could the proxy battle Lu Jiachang mentioned be this one?

But that’s impossible, isn’t it? A few Level 4 New Humans don’t stand a chance against the Peace Party!

"We can’t let this slide, no matter who it is, I want them found! They have a death wish for laying hands on mine!"

Tang Ye snorted coldly and looked at Xu Haishui, "Old Xu, which underground organization holds the most strength?"

Xu nodded, pulled out a tablet, and opened a document. It contained a ranking of all the underground forces in the Central District, the stronger the force, the higher the rank.
