Chapter 555 - Familiar Feeling (1/2)
Edited by Aelryinth
Sensing the auras of the experts in the hall, Zhang Che secretly rejoiced at the fact that he hadn’t acted recklessly when he first arrived at the headquarters. It would have been extremely difficult for him to wipe them out, even if they didn’t have a few powerful epic-quality subdued beasts.
After all, there were a dozen high-tier beastmasters present in this hall alone. They would have plenty of legend-quality subdued beasts, even if none of them had a single epic-quality subdued beast!
If a fight really broke out, given his strength, it would be a pipe dream for him to keep them contained in here if they tried to scatter and escape. It was an impossible feat.
Moreover, there was still the unfathomable He Luotu on top of them!
That fellow was able to sway the hearts of people in the greenlands back in the secret plane, restraining them from killing anyone. He had to have some secrets up his sleeves.
-Okay. When an opportunity comes, I’ll send out the information and let the military take care of this headache.- Zhang Che decided inside. He was determined to not take action alone. He’d wait until the military arrived and coordinate with them, trying his best to make sure no one would escape.
While Zhang Che was thinking, Yang Sen lowered his head respectfully and called out to He Luotu, “President, this subordinate has brought everyone here. Please instruct us!”
Done speaking, he didn’t look up to observe He Luotu’s expression. He maintained his respectful manner, acting as tame as could be, like a harmless little sheep.
Up on the main seat at the front of the hall, He Luotu narrowed his eyes, and swept his gaze across everyone, then said boisterously, “Very good. You’re all elites of our organization, escaping from Jingzhou with Yang Sen. In the foreseeable future, you’ll continue following him. When an opportunity comes, you can choose a new city and spread our Freemasons’ ideals far and wide.”
While He Luotu was speaking, an unobtrusive wave of energy that messed with people’s mind silently shrouded the Xinjing branch members.
Hints of confusion flashed across almost everyone’s eyes, including Yang Sen. A surge of hot-blooded emotions rose in their hearts, making them feel like they could do anything for the organization, even sacrifice their lives!
Only Zhang Che, who was disguised as Zheng Huawei, wasn’t affected by the wave of energy. His true strength wasn’t as simple as what was visible, in addition to the fact that his mental strength far surpassed that of ordinary beastmasters.
-What method is this!?- Zhang Che was astonished, but he didn’t dare to show the slightest strange look on his face. Like everybody else, his expression seemed fearless, echoing He Luotu loudly, swearing to spread the Freemasons’ ideals to let the common beastmasters at the bottom of society occupy the dominant positions and fight for their rights.
He Luotu smiled faintly when he saw how everyone was acting from his throne. He said some encouraging words and waved them off, letting Yang Sen bring them away and settle them down.
Zhang Che gathered himself and left with the others cautiously, not daring to be careless in the slightest. He could faintly sense a familiar feeling from He Luotu.
Putting it that way was not exactly right. After all, he had met He Luotu once in the greenlands of the first secret plane he visited. Having a sense of familiarity was only natural.
However, this familiar feeling was different!
Zhang Che was sure that this wasn’t the feeling He Luotu gave him when they met in the past, but a different feeling from somewhere else.
When they were out of the main hall, and Zhang Che wasn’t as nervous as before, a flash of inspiration suddenly struck him. He remembered where he felt that familiar feeling before.
-The demonic gateway!-
He finally recalled the sensation. It seemed he had felt it before when he went to the Bao Islands to kill the demons, at the moment when the demonic army was about to retreat!
