Sky-cracking Rider-Chapter 738: Section 733 - More Secrets

Chen Fei, by now a battle-hardened veteran who had witnessed mountains of corpses and seas of blood, had himself killed enough to make rivers run red with blood, and created fields covered with bodies. He found it not so easy to fall for tricks like feigning death or pretending to pass out right under his watchful eyes.

He had originally thought that the captive he had caught was unconscious, in a comatose state, but was surprised when Lin Zikong pointed it out.

The prisoner, no longer able to pretend, had no choice but to open his eyes, and even dared to glare at Chen Fei.

"What are you looking at? Keep looking and I'll slaughter you!"

With a flick of his little hand, the professional teaching tool, the White Steel Crowbar, appeared in his palm. Having pried open many a crate, prying open a skull would surely be a breeze for him. With a chisel and a press, the white brain matter would spurt out as if it were free.

"Stop! This guy might still be of some use to us."

Lin Zikong hurriedly stopped Chen Fei. Seeing Chen's murderous intent, it was clear this was not just talk. In the next second, he might very well swing down with the crowbar for real.

"The captive of a parasitic species' enslavement race is not easy to come by; you're lucky, I quite like this gift!"

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Slan Dynasty seemed to take a keen interest in the captive Chen Fei had caught, unapologetically accepting it with a smile.

Simply declaring his liking, he took the spoils of war as a fait accompli. It was typical of someone bound to become an Emperor, using his brains effectively.

"Enslavement race?" ƒrēenovelkiss.com

Chen Fei was puzzled.

From the semi-public information he had obtained from Blue Star and the public information gathered on Cangqiong Star, he had never heard of the term "enslavement race."

Even in the future prophecies of the big shot Louis Landon, the term "enslavement race" was never mentioned; otherwise, he would have informed Chen Fei of this critical intelligence early on.

But since both Lin Zikong and Lin Zio had confidently identified them as an enslavement race, they must have known far more than the average person.

"You once took part in a mission to escort a target that was also from the enslavement race!"

Lin Zikong suddenly brought up a piece of classified information.

"Eh? How do you know that?"

Chen Fei, who had been paid to keep quiet, had never revealed it to anyone because of professional ethics, not even Boss Hana was aware.

The sudden mention of this surprised him, as the sovereignty secrets could lead to major issues if leaked.

Lin Zikong said proudly, "That member of the enslavement race was captured by the Lin Family. People who pay attention to the Parasitic Species aren't just you."

Protecting the skies of Blue Star was the Lin Family's mission. Otherwise, wouldn't the richer resources of Cangqiong Star be more appealing?

The Lin Family, with roots on Blue Star for dozens of years, had not simply rested on the laurels of past achievements.

"Chen Fei, it's not strange that you don't know. Originally, few people did."

His Royal Highness Crown Prince Lin Zio no longer hid the truth and took the opportunity, while his people began searching the underground space, to reveal some secrets unknown to others.

Whether it was Cangqiong Star or the newly exposed Blue Star, a certain great figure of the Parasitic Species "Sagali" had marked it as hunting grounds, or to put it more plainly, a dining table. Whether it's the Human Race, Magical Beasts, or Giant Dragons, all were ingredients on the table.

The Parasitic Species that had been continuously invading Cangqiong Star and the newly emerged enslavement race were both servants preparing the meal, ready to 'cook' all beings on both civilized planets into a delicious feast. This mealtime was not the ordinary two or three hours but stretched to at least a thousand years, or even ten thousand.

Until the Parasitic Species' big shot "grew tired" of eating, and what remained, the scraps and leftovers, would be devoured by the Low-Rank Parasitic Kind and the enslavement race, swallowing them whole and clean. Some civilizations were even entirely wiped out due to this, welcoming a true end of days.

"How, how do you know so much?"

After hearing the Crown Prince's summary, Chen Fei's mouth twitched.

Although there were not many words, the introduction was quite detailed and the source of the information seemed to be powerful.

Even to this day, whether they're the parasitic hosts Chen Fei has caught, or the enslaved race, their mouths are sealed as if locked. Heads can be chopped off, blood can flow, but they refuse to give even a single statement.

"This, this..."

Crown Prince Lin Zio hesitated about whether to continue speaking, glancing hesitantly at his half-brother Lin Zikong, seeking his opinion.

After exchanging a look with his royal brother, Lin Zikong, feeling rather embarrassed, said to Chen Fei, "This is another secret, and I think it's better you don't know about it."

It wasn't that he looked down on Chen Fei, but that he genuinely didn't want to involve Chen Fei.

The Lin Family's being wanted by the Blue Star Sovereignty was largely related to this secret, and also somewhat connected to Chen Fei; his actions had disrupted certain delicate equilibriums and lifted some covers that should have remained closed. The Blue Star Sovereignty's action against the Lin Family was also somewhat forced by the situation.

But everyone knew that the Chen Family Disciple was going with the flow of the times, not intentionally causing trouble for the Lin Family. Even Chen Haiqing, who had good relations with the Lin Family, didn't put too much pressure on this nephew.

So Lin Zikong truly had Chen Fei's best interests at heart.

"All right, I won't ask any more questions."

Seeing the troubled faces of the Lin Family brothers, Chen Fei, though full of doubt, decided to let the matter pass as they suggested.

He then continued, "I have been tracking down the Royal Breed hidden around Nandu City. Do you have any intelligence?"

The people brought by Crown Prince Lin Zio were searching the entire cylindrical space, and Chen Fei had not inspected every "Beehive" chamber in detail; undoubtedly, he had missed several finds.

The Element Annihilation Bomb had destroyed a number of "Beehive" chambers, which might have concealed secrets, but were now reduced to ash.

Therefore, he hoped to get some more precise information from both Lin Zio and Lin Zikong.

With the "Intelligence Team" left behind by the big shot Louis Landon combined with the local snakes of the Hundred-Legs Gang from Nandu City, it was possible to gather a fair number of messages, but when it comes to the depth of intelligence gathering, they still didn't compare to the real local snakes, the Slan Dynasty's Security Department.

The Lin Family's reach extended not just within Cangqiong Star but also across Blue Star, secretly monitoring the actions of parasitic species, and possessing unparalleled advantages.

"Indeed, there is..."

Lin Zio had just begun speaking when he suddenly fell silent, turning his gaze toward the lower half of the cylindrical space, where only two or three-tenths of the murky mucus remained.

Turning back, he said to Chen Fei and Lin Zikong, "We have just made some discoveries; let's go take a look before we talk."

The energy fluctuations of the Earth Element System made the three of them involuntarily feel lighter, and they simultaneously levitated from the ground, drifting down towards the bottom of the cylindrical space.

The Terrestrial Dragon, covered in brown scales, flew down with them, seemingly providing the trio with protection. The rest of the people descended in various manners, forming a protective circle around them.

"Speaking of which, I should thank you for your 'Dragon Slayer Missile'; otherwise, the clean-up wouldn't have been so thorough."

Lin Zio surveyed the destroyed, chaotic "Beehive" space, with most of the transparent membranes nearly disintegrated, fully exposing the interior scenes.

It wasn't until this moment that Chen Fei realized that these "Beehive" chambers were not empty; they contained many from the Human Race, even Magical Beasts, as well as beings that even artificial intelligence AI couldn't make out.

All these creatures that should have been alive were now motionless; some were even intact with no physical harm, all thanks to the aftermath of the Secondary Wave and the Elemental Annihilation Bomb, these two large-scale tactical weapons. Indiscriminately, they slaughtered everything, not differentiating between enemy and ally or innocence.

In such an almost sealed environment, both the Secondary Wave and the Elemental Annihilation Bomb achieved destruction effects that were virtually 100 percent. If it wasn't for the suppressive effects of elemental energy disappearing and the Magic Array carved on the Giant "Dragon King" activating in time, Chen Fei might have killed himself along with the rest, because he had a precedent of acting rashly when inflamed with emotion, not sparing even himself.

If there was any resistance left inside, clearing so many "Beehive" chambers would definitely not be an easy task, and might also result in some casualties, which is probably why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince expressed gratitude.

"It seems I went a bit too far."

Chen Fei felt a surge of guilt; he didn't know whether there were innocent beings inside like himself and Xiao Jiu, and any such casualties would be a mistake.

Lin Zikong seemed to guess Chen Fei's thoughts and consoled him, "Don't think too much. At this time, it's better to kill ten thousand by mistake than to let one slip by."

The Lin Family has never shown mercy to foreign parasitic species.
