“According to their memory, there are 42 convicts within 400 to 500 kilometers. There are 11 of them on imperial-level black gold-rank, 23 imperial-level crimson gold-ranks, and 8 imperial-level yellow gold-ranks. There are no imperial-level white gold or purple gold-ranks,” b.l.o.o.d.y came up with the data and spoke subsequently, “Figuring that killing them one by one would waste too much time, I thought of a way to attract them to us instead.”

“I was thinking of the same issue earlier. Killing them one by one’s too slow. Moreover, those fellas have high alertness. They wanted to run away as soon as they noticed something off.” Lin Huang nodded. “Tell me what you have in mind.”

“Aren’t they lacking food? I have hundreds of immortal-level rank-9 people in my parasitical army. We could use them as bait.” Lin Huang had a rough idea of what b.l.o.o.d.y was planning as soon as he heard that.

After some detailed discussion, both of them began carrying out the baiting plot.

b.l.o.o.d.y handed the communication talisman it had found from the skinny man over to Lin Huang. “The first target — Ge Nan.”

Lin Huang took the talisman and inserted Life Power into it. Then, the script and sigils on the talisman lit up rapidly.

b.l.o.o.d.y spoke as soon as Ge Nan picked up. Its voice sounded exactly like the skinny man’s. “Boss Ge, I have a piece of excellent news.”

“Be specific.” A voice came soon from the other side.

“Sure, I’ll tell you right away.” b.l.o.o.d.y looked at Lin Huang and smiled before proceeded to speak, “I found a team of over 20 candidates.”

“Skinny Monkey, you do know the consequences if you deceive me, don’t you?” said the talisman after a moment of silence.

“Boss Ge, how would I dare to deceive you? I wouldn’t dare even if I have 18 guts!” b.l.o.o.d.y was on-point with the skinny man’s tone. Even Lin Huang flashed it a thumbs-up, looking rather surprised.

“It’s only been less than an hour since the trial has begun and you’re telling me that there are more than 20 candidates forming a team. How is that not a lie?” The voice sounded rather mad. “The candidates are sent in randomly each trial. It’s been less than an hour since the trial started. Don’t talk about gathering a team of 20. The chances of two candidates who know each other meeting are so low.”

“Was it Tao Peng who asked you to lie to me so that he could attack me?”

“It’s really not what you think. I really saw a team of candidates. There are more than 20 of them. I’m also curious about how they managed to gather so fast,” b.l.o.o.d.y proceeded to explain with the skinny man’s voice, “If you don’t believe me, just pretend that I never contacted you. I’ll look for somebody else. I provided this piece of information because I know I can’t finish all of the flesh, so I thought of sharing with someone else. It doesn’t really matter who I share it with.”

The person fell into a moment of silence before speaking again, “How much do you want?”

“Three of them,” b.l.o.o.d.y requested.

“No, you’ll only get one.”

“We’ll both take a step back to meet in the middle. Give me two!”

“One and a half!”

“One and a half then.” b.l.o.o.d.y sounded a little unwilling.

“Give me the address.”

“I’ll send it to you right away.”

“Also, this will only be a secret between you and me. I don’t want a third person to know about it. If you tell someone else about it, I guarantee that you won’t get anything!”

“Understood.” After hanging up with Boss Ge, b.l.o.o.d.y turned to say to Lin Huang, “Second target — Zhao Kui.”
