Chapter 354: Chapter 275: Guesses and Preparation_2

...

Inside the soundproof barrier, what exactly Xiao Yi and the others discussed remained known only to them and the viewers of the live broadcast... At least everyone else in Ruined City was unaware.

However, after their discussion, the three of them unanimously concluded that it must be Wen Huaxin’s ability.

After confirming the answer and the corresponding strategies, the three left the soundproof barrier.

Then, they calmly handled the subsequent matters as if nothing had happened, including dealing with the bodies of Orell’s men and continuing to search for other targets to obtain the Core.

Not just during that period, but from then on, they never brought up that matter again, as if they had forgotten about it.

Meanwhile, Wen Huaxin didn’t approach Xiao Yi and his group anymore, as if both parties had tacitly agreed to some sort of ceasefire.

But not bringing it up didn’t mean that Xiao Yi and his team had forgotten about it, nor did it mean they wanted to avoid it; they were just... waiting.

Waiting for the final moment to come, waiting for the time to settle the score with Wen Huaxin. Until that moment arrived, they couldn’t bring up anything related to this matter again.

Everything... was for the arrival of that last moment.

...

However, all that was in the future, let’s return to the present, where on Wen Huaxin’s side, he was traveling through a spatial rift with a North Korean military officer, returning to their comrades.

"I have a question, may I ask it?"

At this moment, the North Korean officer suddenly spoke up, asking Wen Huaxin.

Wen Huaxin naturally gave an affirmative response, "Of course, what do you want to ask?"

The question from the North Korean officer was straightforward, just one sentence.

"Why... didn’t you kill them?"

To the North Korean officer, the situation just then was the perfect opportunity! The best chance to kill Xiao Yi, the most troublesome enemy!

Throughout this time, he had been closely monitoring Xiao Yi through another teammate’s real-time surveillance ability, watching him intently without even blinking.

He could only rest briefly when Xiao Yi was asleep.

All his efforts were to fulfill the promise he made to Wen Huaxin, to thoroughly block Xiao Yi’s abilities.

But within just three or four days, he was already struggling to keep up.

In fact, more than once, he had ordered Xiao Yi to die, but it was in vain.

Because their abilities were of the same level, even forcefully issuing a command would just be canceled out by the other.

Therefore, the thought of enduring such days for another month was torturous, and he felt even greater regret.

But he could not renounce his own promise—it was not in keeping with the conduct of a North Korean soldier! Therefore, he had no choice but to endure the torment.

And now, he finally had a chance to launch a surprise attack and kill Xiao Yi, but Wen Huaxin unexpectedly gave up such an opportunity! He just killed that Lighthouse person and left directly!?

How could he easily accept this outcome, so he could no longer restrain himself and questioned Wen Huaxin.

"Don’t get agitated, I know it’s not easy for you," Wen Huaxin replied, "But it’s all for the ultimate victory, just hold on a bit longer, everything will be fine once it’s all over. If we give up here, then all our previous efforts will have been in vain."

"I understand that, of course." The North Korean soldier’s tone intensified, "I am asking you, why didn’t you kill Xiao Yi! Such an opportunity might only come this once! After that, once they become aware of our capabilities, they will surely increase their vigilance, and we’ll never have the chance for a surprise attack again! This operation, though it seems we gained an advantage, similarly, we exposed our intelligence to them! They will definitely make countermeasures! No matter how you look at it, this is too big a loss."

"Ah..." Wen Huaxin sighed slightly, "Since you know that they will heighten their alert and prevent our surprise attacks, then you should also realize that under such circumstances, we wouldn’t have the chance to ambush them, right?"

"...Huh?" The North Korean soldier frowned, "What do you mean?"

"Under the circumstances at the time, I only had the chance to fire one shot," Wen Huaxin explained. "With their reflexes, the moment they heard the gunshot, they would immediately react and take control. That means, I could only fire that one surprise shot."

"If you only had one shot, then you should have taken down Xiao Yi!" the North Korean soldier said agitatedly, "Killing a dying man to snatch those cores was such a waste, if you had just killed Xiao Yi, those cores would still be ours! Besides, if Xiao Yi was taken down, the remaining two would be no threat at all! What were you thinking?"

"Do you really think so?" Wen Huaxin said seriously, "Don’t forget, at that instant, you were not blocking Xiao Yi’s abilities, but rather breaking open the space. We could not guarantee that the shot I fired would fatally wound Xiao Yi. Even if I aimed for his head, his abilities might have already been activated. Furthermore, from Dragon Country’s side, there would be corresponding protective measures in place for him. No matter how you look at it, with only one shot, aiming for Xiao Yi was too risky, that’s why I didn’t do it."

...The North Korean soldier fell silent.

"Also, after we blocked Xiao Yi’s abilities, we still didn’t strike at them, but rather induced others to attack them, do you remember why?" Wen Huaxin continued, "Because of the two people with him, don’t underestimate those two around Xiao Yi, just Sheraya’s abilities alone are troublesome enough. Even if I had successfully shot Xiao Yi, considering his healing ability that we observed, it is very likely he could have brought Xiao Yi back to life."

"If he planned to do so..." said the North Korean soldier, "I would stop him... no, with my abilities, killing him on the spot wouldn’t be a problem."

"Confidence and arrogance are different," Wen Huaxin said, "Besides, there’s still one person. Fei Ye’s abilities are still unknown to us. If her abilities were nothing to worry about, then there would probably be no need for such secrecy, right?"

"Indeed," the North Korean soldier nodded, "From my observation, if she had a useful ability, she would have already shown it. But her choice to hide it suggests that it must be a trump card, unexposed, able to turn the tide of battle."

"Exactly," Wen Huaxin nodded, "It’s only been a few days, we still have many opportunities, there’s no need to gamble on uncertain matters... But I can tell you with certainty, I am confident of winning, which is why I made such a move. I don’t ask for your belief but please, at least follow the instructions I give until everything is over."

"...Phew," the North Korean soldier sighed deeply and nodded. "Alright, I understand."

"So, when we get back, immediately monitor Xiao Yi and block his abilities."

Just as they were talking, Wen Huaxin and the others had already returned to where their teammates were located.

Wen Huaxin was about to ask the teammate to open real-time surveillance, but the teammate, with a stern face, came up and said to Wen Huaxin,

"Wen Huaxin, the situation isn’t good. I’ve been monitoring Xiao Yi and his group’s movements, and after you left, Xiao Yi and his group... may have discovered what your ability is."
