Chapter 494 Emergency Plan (1/2)
In the DarkStar base, a bruised Alvin collapsed in the middle of the room with three of his doppelgangers tied up in the corner.
Sherman carried his cannon while saying, ”There are a total of five Alvins. Four doppelgangers and one main body. Godora saved a doppelganger, so this should be the main body. He hid himself extremely well, and Sinesa managed to break down his mental fluctuations to grasp the thoughts of his doppelgangers. After a carpet style search, we found the traitor's main body in a very well concealed location.”
By the side, a skinny man called Sinesa nodded in agreement. He was a Grade B Psychic part of the pursuit force. The doppelgangers were exactly the same as the main body, and even their mental fluctuations were the same, resulting in outsiders being unable to tell them apart. However, this also became the clue for their chase.
Anur nodded in satisfaction. ”Very good, your efficiency has brought pride to the organization. Our mission can be completed early. Ember, take action.”
Ember nodded, and with a raise of his finger, Alvin's main body was reduced to dust.
Everyone was expressionless and completely used to the feeling of killing their enemies.
Just when they wanted to pack up and retreat, all of them froze in place. Their gazes were filled with shock as they looked at the corner.
Alvin's three doppelgangers were still around, and a look of mockery could be seen on their faces.
”With the main body dead, why aren't the doppelgangers disappearing‽” Anur's expression changed, and he looked at the pile of dust on the ground. ”Could it be that this isn't the main body‽”
”Hahahaha….” The three doppelgangers burst into laughter.
This wave of laughter immediately infuriated the DarkStar warriors. After searching for such a long time, had they actually been fooled‽
Anur's face cramped up, and he roared, ”Kill them! One of them must be the main body!”
Swoosh!
The three doppelgangers turned to dust. Even when the first two died, the last doppelganger was still alright. Even when the third doppelganger died, DarkStar could not know if it was the main body. However, they already had a guess.
”The Alvin in Godora's hands is the real main body! He is truly bold! He actually used his main body to misdirect us and take the risk to seek Nagakin's protection! If we'd caught him earlier on, he would have been dead by now!” Sherman flew into a rage.
Bang!
The more Sherman thought about it, the more furious he was. Perhaps it was just his paranoia, but he could feel the blaming gazes of the comrades around him and smashed his fist heavily on the chair—because he could not reach the table.
Anur's expression was dark. ”For the four doppelgangers to die together, Alvin will definitely have suffered severe injuries from the backlash. We cannot delay things anymore. Everyone, move out and kill the final main body hiding with Nagakin!”
Since the four doppelgangers had already been killed, their target was obvious. As long as they could kill the real Alvin, their mission would be a success. Anur did not wish to waste any more time and was prepared to lead all of his forces to quickly finish the mission!
…
After receiving the news, Han Xiao hurriedly returned to the base with the other two. He then saw the solemn expressions on the faces of everyone in the base. Walking over to the conference room, he saw that the main battle force was present in the conference room at the moment. He then saw Alvin, who was seated at the end of the table, and was stunned.
Had his main body not been captured? According to DarkStar's impatient character, they definitely would have executed the main body immediately. Since Alvin was still sitting there alive and the mission had not failed, Han Xiao immediately guessed what was going on.
”You should have told us earlier that this is your main body.”
”Sorry, I was afraid of a leak. Information that only I know will not have the risk of being exposed to the enemy. Cough cough…”
Alvin covered his mouth and began coughing. Blood could be seen seeping through the gap of his fingers, and bright red spots were left behind on the table. His eyes were listless, and his complexion looked pale. The senses of his doppelgangers and main body were connected, and for the four doppelgangers to perish in a short amount of time, it resulted in a heavy blow to his body and mind. His current situation was extremely poor.
He had already taken a huge risk. He had swapped his main body with a doppelganger and accepted the protection of Nagakin and the rest. He had supported the idea of lying in wait because the 'main body' that DarkStar was looking for was actually his doppelganger. Thus, he had been confident. He did not like being on the passive side. Rather than hiding himself and praying that DarkStar would not find him, he might as well seek protection, and he would be safer that way.
”However, DarkStar has already seen through my little trick, and their next move will be to take the initiative to attack and get rid of me,” Alvin said weakly. ”I can only rely on all of you to protect me. Please.”
