Chapter 980 -302 [DP-955 Research Institute]
Leonard Churchill had just left not long ago.
In the swamp, the commander of the Thorny Snake Corps, Heman, and a group of people hurriedly pursued.
Amidst a thick fog, they accurately located the last place where the two individuals had met.
Looking at the clothes in the water, the expressions of the group grew solemn.
Standing with Heman in the team was an elderly woman with half-black, half-white hair.
She was the leader of the Poison Vine Mercenary Group, “Black Widow” Hester.
“Club 3 – Plague Doctor,” a Seventh Tier Voodoo Grandmaster.
A support card master who excelled in using poison, curing poison, and controlling various venomous creatures.
Her hands, like dried-up branches, picked up the soaked clothes from the water, sniffed them near her breath, and ultimately shook her head, muttering, “Strange, the poison markers have completely disappeared. The target must have used some unconventional methods to avoid biological energy leakage.”
Pausing, her murky eyes showed a hint of contemplation and puzzlement as she added, “I’ve never seen this skill before, likely it’s one of those lost Professional Sequence secret skills. Hehe, those card masters from the East Wilderness still have some interesting spells inherited…”
Hearing this, Heman spoke helplessly, “It must have been the fireworks earlier that gave away the direction. The woman’s companion came to their aid.”
Hester said, “There are traces of dark element residue here, not very high in Law Understanding. The one who came to help is probably around the Fifth Tier. But the hiding technique is exceptional; it’s going to take some effort to find them in this swamp…”
“…”
Heman sighed lightly upon hearing this.
If she said it was difficult to find them, then it was indeed difficult.
Heman was already considering giving up.
After all, a Sixth Tier War Slave wasn’t worth wasting too much time on.
But at this moment, a strange sense of familiarity surged in his heart.
…
The inexplicable disappearance of the Waren City Rebel Camp before had still yielded no investigative results.
Although it was almost certain that it was the work of a double agent from the Rebel Dragon Army.
But who broke the space, who was saved, and how they contacted that Toad…
Many questions remained, with no definitive clues to this day.
Now watching as a Sixth Tier being pursued by the Corps escaped, Heman couldn’t shake off a feeling of déjà vu.
The clues left at the scene were very sparse, meaning the person who came to the rescue was exceptionally capable of handling emergencies.
Wise, calm, and with decisive action.
Most importantly, the audacity.
Daring to come to their rescue despite knowing two Seventh Tiers from the Thorny Snake Corps were in pursuit spoke volumes of courage not possessed by ordinary people.
This was just like the previous plan of daringly contacting and rescuing some slaves from under the nose of the closely guarded Corps.
The impression was of someone dancing on the edge of a knife.
Heman didn’t believe it was a coincidence that they encountered two such individuals in a short span of time.
It seemed more likely to be the work of the same person.
Rescuing slaves, he could understand.
But what was the meaning behind rescuing a person from the East Wilderness?
Could they also be after the Relics?
As he was thinking, the people in the team began to discuss.
They were the only ones who knew how challenging their opponent was on their way here.
Any other Sixth Tier would have died countless times over by now.
“A Sixth Tier being able to comprehend domains is no surprise given their outrageous combat power. If it were in our Southern Continent, two or three of the same tier might not be able to handle this kind of so-called ‘Legendary Card Master’ from the East Wilderness.”
“The inheritance of card masters in the East Wilderness was broken; the strongest are only Sixth Tier. Stuck at this bottleneck for thousands of years, figuring out some tricks to master domains early is not surprising.”
“But speaking of which, that woman’s domain was quite formidable. The Descending Gods from the War Sequence, and a few very odd Xian Dao techniques… If she really advanced to the Seventh Tier, she’d be a formidable adversary indeed.”
“No matter, the top-tier card masters from the Kingdom are now arriving on the Old Continent. Even if a few Seventh Tiers really did emerge from the East Wilderness, they wouldn’t be able to make much of a wave. We should focus on exploring and completing the mission assigned by our superiors. The Holy See is set on obtaining that object, and if we can’t find it, we’ll have no choice but to present our heads…”
“Yes. There seems to be a large-scale ancient ruin beneath that swamp. Based on the current clues, it’s very likely the White Family’s secret research base. If it’s really what we think, we might find that object…”
“Let’s hurry up and get that Toad here for verification…”
“…”
Although Heman decided not to continue the chase,

he couldn’t shake the feeling that this trouble wasn’t over yet.
Compared to a Sixth Tier, they had more important missions.
The Corps had been exploring the Plague Marsh for so long, and now that they were on the verge of a major discovery, they couldn’t afford to waste too much time “rat-catching.”
…
Meanwhile.
In the depths of the swamp lay the ruins of industrial buildings.
A group of mysterious figures clad in white cloaks entered the underground through a passage.
This was a concrete passage, with mottled white painted characters on the walls, barely making out the words “DP-955 Research Institute.”
The group was trying to decrypt the security of a sealed steel door.
Then, an Illusion of a nightingale emerged in the Void.
“What, you’re saying that woman escaped?”
“Yes. We just received the message from our people infiltrated in the Thorny Snake Corps…”
“With our information guiding them and two Seventh Tiers involved, they still couldn’t hold her?”
“Yes. That person used several life-saving techniques in the fight that we’ve never seen in the intelligence reports… and here’s the crucial point, those secret skills aren’t spells from the ‘War’ Sequence, but they do closely resemble our White Family’s God Thief heritage…”
