Chapter 473 - A Capture Squad With A Grand Lineup (2/2)

He mobilized resources from all sides and came up with a plan.

During the series of crimes the previous night, two robbers had been knocked unconscious while they were running away.

Shen Yupeng captured them, and while they were unconscious, implanted mini-tapping chips and locating chips into their wounds.

Then, he intentionally threw them deep into some alley.

When the two robbers woke up, they thought that they had fortunately escaped being captured, and naturally, just like other robbers, they fled in alarm to Golden Tooth Lair.

Shen Yupeng believed that the mastermind would not just cast aside these two “talented people” who had successfully escaped once and now had great experience in committing crimes and fleeing.

Regardless of whether the mastermind would show up directly and give the two robbers more resources and guidance or whether it would give them remote commands through the internet again, Jin Wanhao would be able to get more clues, because he was the Underground Emperor of the lair.

Of course, if the mastermind were really an abnormal beast, the lair would have a hard time killing it with its own fighting strength.

In the face of an unprecedented threat, Saber Jin Wanhao decided to step aside and allow the fighting power from the world outside the lair to enter Golden Tooth Lair, all so that they could capture and suppress the mastermind.

Of course, the Underground Emperor also set up his conditions. He did not wish that the secret police, abnormal beast research department, and the Red Dragon Army would use brute force in the lair and break the tacit agreement they had built over the decades.

This was not a problem.

The hundreds of crimes outside had already wrung the secret police completely dry of energy. The abnormal beast research department also had to fend off the abnormal beasts’ infiltration and ambush at full force. As for the Red Dragon Army, it was not suitable for them to use their heavy equipment for a battle in the 3D maze that was the lair.

Besides, the secret police, abnormal beast research department, and the Red Dragon Army had never been the only top fighting powers in Dragon City.

The four great research centers, Dragon City University, the alliance of the five universities, Universe Corporation, Sky Pillar Corporation, Soaring Dragon Construction, and the other six mega corporations had veteran superhumans who had survived through hundreds of battles and possessed unbelievable, practically sci-fi tech.

Very soon, a capture squad formed of more than ten Heaven Realm superhumans led by Man-eating Shark Zhou Chong himself, who was at the peak of Heaven Realm, came from the various insurance companies in Dragon City.

They took into consideration that the environment in the lair was complicated and had hundreds of thousands of innocent citizens. Even if Deity Realm superhumans entered, it would be difficult for them to go all out and fight to their hearts’ content.

Hence, this capture squad had an average fighting strength of Heaven Realm, and it was already an unprecedentedly grand lineup.

“Don’t worry. Zhou Chong is a senior in the hunter circle. His sense of smell when it comes to hunting is much sharper than that of the average person.

“When he was in the wild, he once caught countless monsters skilled in disguising and hiding themselves. He has already memorized the scents of quite a number of robbers and the Deification Capsule. If he can smell even a whiff of their scent, the mastermind won’t be able to escape!”

Shen Yupeng was at his wits’ end because of the hundreds of crimes over the past two days, but his righteous nature was still stirred up, and he swore that he would not stop fighting until he died. He punched the air and said to Meng Chao when he came to ask for information, “Just wait for good news. Dragon City won’t suffer through a third lawless night!”

Meng Chao cast a glance at the capture squad list that Shen Yupeng gave him, and he saw quite a number of famous names.

They were all like Man-eating Shark Zhou Chong, idols from his teenage years.

But he was still a little uneasy and a little agitated. He thought about it and said earnestly to Shen Yupeng, “Big Brother Peng, can I join the capture squad and enter the lair with Senior Zhou and the others?”

Shen Yupeng was surprised. “Why?”

Meng Chao did not come to this decision on a whim.

He did not want to play hero in front of veteran hunters like Man-eating Shark Zhou Chong, either.

Instead, after he thought about it carefully, he discovered three reasons behind why he had to go.

First, if the mastermind was really the Supernatural Entity Vortex, he might be able to unravel more of the Mystery of the Supernatural Entities through this creature.

Second, the fire that ignited in Golden Tooth Lair in his previous life dealt a decisive, negative impact on the direction of the Monster War.

But Shen Yupeng told Meng Chao that Golden Tooth Lair was built based on the standards of shelters and war fortresses, so it was impossible for an accidental fire to affect the whole lair.

If it were not an accident, then what sort of scheme lurked behind the fire that had yet to happen?

Meng Chao remembered that in his previous life, the fire led to at least one hundred thousand lair citizens dying or being injured.

No matter what, he had to stop this tragedy from happening.

The third reason was related to the X-shaped Eye.

Ever since he saw the X-shaped Eye in the Demonic Abyss Eye’s dying memories, Meng Chao secretly searched through all the major medical organizations in Dragon City, including the files related to the medical organizations that no longer existed since around twenty years ago.

But he never discovered the existence of the X-shaped Eye.

However, Golden Tooth Lair could be considered as a living fossil. There were plenty of places in the lair that still retained their original look from decades ago, and there were a large number of illegal workshops, secret labs, and unlicensed private medical organizations hiding in it.

Meng Chao believed that he might be able to find the answer in Golden Tooth Lair.

With that thought in mind, he said decisively, “Of course it’s because I hate the wicked and swore when I was young that I will be the mortal enemy of evil! I will definitely cut down the mastermind who extended its claws toward Dragon City’s innocent citizens!

“Big Brother Peng, trust me. I won’t hold Man-eating Shark Zhou Chong and the others back!”
