In the silence, the sound of a few people stepping on the dead branches and leaves seemed particularly harsh.

The boots stepped lightly on a few dead branches and leaves, making a "crunching" sound, and sank into the soil under the heavy weight and were crushed into new fertilizer.

The moonlight shone on this group of people, reflecting the black coat of the person walking in front and making his face look even pale, almost not like a normal person.

After wiping his face, Bai Ling couldn't help muttering: "I should have brought Lin Ju with me earlier."

Although I learned some makeup skills from Lin Ju, I can't compare to her years of experience in this skill. Even if I use my foresight, I can only do something similar, and I can never compare to professionals.

Up to now, all Bai Ling could do was to make his face look less strange.

Although he no longer needs to cover up his skin color, Bai Ling still feels a little troubled by the possibility of others seeing him and their reactions.

Still need to keep learning.

Thinking of this, Bai Ling stepped into the valley.

Along with the sound of his footsteps, the black ring flickered slightly, and some wisps of mist escaped from the ring, expanding and dispersing along with the regular footsteps, quickly occupying the space near Bailing.

In just a few breaths, everyone was covered in the fog.

Looking at the hazy gray fog, Peter's eyes flashed with curiosity and fear.

He remembered very clearly that he was tricked by this thing yesterday. Even though he and Bai Ling were teammates now, this fog with nowhere to hide was still difficult for Peter to deal with.

Peter secretly glanced at Bering next to him and said nothing. He just put his arm around his sister Roxanne's shoulders to support her and followed him silently.

Ding Yan was stroking the wooden mask on his face, and his movements looked a little stiff.

He probably still didn't understand who the girl following him from a distance was.

Ding Yan even asked Peter indirectly whether he could see the thing, but in the end he got a negative answer from Peter. After struggling for a while, he lingered next to Bai Ling, as if he wanted to wait for the prophet's answer.

But Bai Ling just gave him a meaningful smile, then patted his shoulder gently and smiled without saying anything.

I have to say that Zuimian seemed to have some evil tastes. He knew that Ding Yan was a little scared, but he just didn't come out to explain. Instead, he hung far behind the team, haunting them like a ghost. He would take two steps forward from time to time, then quickly retreat into the shadows where no one could see him, and then take two steps forward again...

Ding Yan was scared to death.

I don't know who he learned this mask from.

Thinking of this, Bai Ling took out two white gloves from his handbag, put them on along the direction of his wrists, and then tightly tightened the hem of the gloves. The sound of applying force made the fibers stretch out, and they "popped" and stuck to the skin.

"Let's go," said Bering, "down into the abyss."

After saying this, Bering strode forward, his heels dug into the soft soil, leaving deep prints.

In front of us is a very inconspicuous gray-white gate that is almost tightly fitted into the rock. Old and simple patterns can be seen on the gate, as if it has been standing here for a long time, enduring the sun, rain, wind and rain.

There are refurbished alloy pillars on both sides of the gate. It looks like someone has renovated it not long ago, making it more advanced and modern.

Looking at the gate, Bai Ling's eyes flickered.

"This is the last big base of the Human Watch in Yanxia Mountain, and it is also the 'ashes' that these lunatics intend to use in the end," he thought to himself, "Rodney of the Human Watch is probably rushing here at full speed now. It will take about half an hour before he arrives."

After taking a look at the current time, Bai Ling put his phone away and put it back in his pocket.

Half an hour is enough.

Currently, there are only some human beings on guard in this area, and Luqi who is temporarily staying here, waiting for the final stage! Other than that, this place can be almost considered undefended.

This is normal, after all, basically no one can find this place.

Bai Ling glanced at the cliffs that were pressing in from both sides and almost seemed to fall on his head, making it hard to breathe. He nodded slightly and said, "It is hidden in the northern corner of Yanxia Mountain, several kilometers away from the nearest exercise team. It is deliberately built in a deserted place and even has interference devices. If it weren't for the fear that the barrier inside would affect the large barrier outside, I think the human watchers would have wanted to put up everything. "

These guys are really rich.

As expected of someone who made a deal with the abyss, it would be difficult for him to go against humanity without some financial resources.

With this thought in mind, Bai Ling raised his eyelids slightly and glanced to both sides.

"The rats in the sewers just like to gather together in groups and share each other's dirt," he said. "How stupid! They think they can gain any benefits by hiding in the dark. Are all human watchers so presumptuous?"

Along with his voice.

The next second, the gray mist around him rushed out like a blade, whipping behind the stone next to him like a mad wolf, and then forcibly picked out two figures! After picking out the two people behind the stone, more gray mist wrapped around them, turning into a tight chain that tightly locked their bodies, making these people's hands and feet stick to their backs and unable to move! Looking at the two figures that were suddenly pulled out, present couldn't help but be shocked! Peter and Ding looked Yan at each other. Unfortunately, Peter couldn't see Ding Yan's eyes through the blue eyeballs of the mask.

But this did not stop Peter from being shocked.

You know, he didn't notice the existence of these two people at all just now.

Those two guys seemed to have a very sophisticated method of concealing their aura. Even though they were only a few dozen meters away, Peter didn't even notice the slightest thing unusual!

However, these two guys were caught just like that, just like children playing hide-and-seek being picked up by adults and thrown on the ground, strolling around...

Peter became more and more suspicious of Bering's true ability.

This can no longer be called amazing insight. No matter how sharp the perception is, it is at least within the scope of human beings. However, from Bai Ling to now, he does not seem to rely on his five senses, but on something... of a higher level.

It was like... predicting the future! Thinking of this, Peter's shock became more and more difficult to suppress.

Could it be that Bering is really a... prophet? !

He thought of how Bailing had called himself when talking to the blond man Rodney not long ago, and recalled what he had seen and heard during this period of time...

It can be said that Peter is now almost 90% convinced that Bering is really the so-called "prophet".

Even if he is not a prophet, he is at least a knower who understands many secrets.

Thinking of this, it was obvious that something was wrong with the way Peter looked at Bering.

As a guy with normal IQ but slightly distorted values, Peter began to wonder whether he should fight to the death with Bering.

After thinking for a long time, he found that it seemed unnecessary.

The reason why he had a grudge with Bai Ling was entirely because of his previous rude and offensive behavior (he also had to admit that he was indeed a little brainless before), so he was slightly punished by Bai Ling, and then he was so angry that he planned to teach Li Jingwen and the others a lesson.

But now that I think about it, my previous offensive behavior was completely due to a worm in my brain, and I was influenced by those traitors. Not to mention that Bering helped me dig the worm out of my body and pointed out the problem of the traitor. If I really want to say it, Bering is my benefactor.

I thought again about the possible consequences of not dealing with a "prophet"...

As if he thought of some bad scenes, Peter couldn't help shaking his head, and his face, which was already pale due to blood loss, became even paler.

When I get a chance in the future I will definitely go and apologize to those people.

Such a thought flashed through Peter's mind.

Bering, who was standing next to him, certainly had no way of knowing what Peter was thinking.

He was just a "prophet", not omniscient. With a brain storm like Peter's, Bering would have no way of detecting his intentions unless he put his hand on his head to burst it.

He just looked at the two people in front of him who were tightly entangled by the mist chains and unable to move, but still glared at him.

After looking at it for less than a second, Bai Ling nodded: "I see."

After saying this, he strode to the old white door and gently pressed on the newly installed pillar next to it.

The next second, an LCD screen appeared on the pillar with several horizontal lines jumping on it, as if it was time to enter a password.

Looking at the display screen in front of him, Bai Ling reached out his hand without hesitation and tapped it a few times.

As he touched, the mountains next to the tightly closed white gate suddenly sank.

The breath of wind could be faintly felt in the exposed sunken part, and the long steps led all the way into darkness, with no bottom in sight.

Looking at the secret passage leading downwards in front of him, Bai Ling's mouth curled up slightly.

However, the two people behind him who were tightly entangled began to go crazy.

"Impossible!" one of them shouted. He looked like an iron rod, unable to move. "How could you know the password?!"

You have to know that this password is a secret that most people in the underground don't know except for a few people! If the password is entered incorrectly, the area around it will explode. However, it now seems that this man clearly entered the correct password, and there is no deviation at all!

When humans first built this place, they probably didn't intend to let most of them come back alive. So when they built such a secret device, they only told the code to a few people to make the final arrangements.

However, it now seems that the password has been leaked! Thinking of this, a trace of fear flashed in the eyes of the two people tightly entangled by the fog.

If the password is leaked, it means there is a traitor in the organization!

Moreover, the status of the traitor is definitely not too low, because this level of secrecy is simply beyond the reach of people of lower ranks! Once such an idea came into being, suspicion continued to grow in the hearts of the two people.

Humans are creatures of this kind. Sometimes, many people prefer to believe their own speculations more than existing evidence.

Faced with the questioning of these two people, Bai Ling said nothing, but just turned his head and glanced at the two people.

Then he showed the same meaningful smile he had shown to Ding Yan before.

After laughing, he swaggered into the underground with the remaining few people.

The two men were left entangled on the ground, staring at each other in disbelief.

And then very quickly.

A woman followed from behind.

She stood behind the two men, her golden hair falling down and landing on their heads.

The two people were feeling a little itchy and subconsciously wanted to look up...

With a "click", the woman twisted their heads and made them faint.

After doing all this, the woman stepped directly over the two men and followed Bai Ling without hesitation.

At this moment, Bai Ling and his team had already walked to an empty platform.

The platform seemed to be a wide and long elevator. The elevator was large enough to accommodate dozens of people standing. It was square like the freight elevators used on construction sites.

With his feet on the elevator, Bai Ling looked at the buttons next to it.

Without a moment's hesitation, he pressed down.

When the button was pushed all the way down, the entire elevator began to make a rumbling sound, as if the gears began to turn again because of the fit of the ties, the metal blocks biting together, dragging the heavy platform in mechanical operation.

Dust rose up, and soon the platform began to slowly descend.

When standing in the elevator, Peter finally had some free time.

He looked at Bai Ling and asked doubtfully, "Is it... that simple?"

According to Bering, this is the last place where humans are watching.

Apart from the two people we dealt with at the beginning, we basically just kept on going, and we easily reached the local boss's lair as if we were on a picnic...

This kind of simple mode path-finding game was something Peter had never heard of before.

Facing Peter's question, Bai Ling smiled and said, "Simple?"

He raised his hand and pointed in the distance: "Over there, there are thirteen people, two well-equipped tactical teams."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand in a certain direction: "Twenty meters west of there, there is a minefield."

"There is a security group of at least a hundred people stationed nearby," Bailing said calmly, "In addition, there are special operations teams, people with super powers, and hunters who betrayed humanity..."

"If they gather together, they can at least deal with three or four teachers who are accompanying the team."

Hearing this, Peter's expression gradually changed: "So many people... against three or four teachers?!"

As a participant in the exercise, Peter knew very well how outrageous those teachers accompanying the team were.

Apart from anything else, the two senior officers of the Thirteenth Division of the Military Police of Country Y alone can handle a considerable number of soldiers at the same time. You know, the teachers who came for this exercise are all elites from various countries who can deal with abnormal affairs! Even so, the other side can still deal with three or four high-end human combat forces...

It's daunting just to think about it.

But soon, Peter came to his senses: "But when we came..."

Soon, he shut his mouth.

Because he realized that when he came, he did not come in the direction that Bailing had pointed out before!

Peter suddenly remembered that when he was in the car, he seemed to feel that the car's route was a little strange. Now it seems that Bering had clearly avoided various possible crises in advance and found an absolutely safe road!

Thinking of this, the look he gave Bai Ling became more complicated.

But Bai Ling just smiled and didn't answer.

Peter had absolutely no idea how tired Bering was on this journey.

First, I was exhausted from searching for the human watch base. Then, I spent a lot of effort to avoid those troublesome guys and avoid attracting too much attention. Finally, I was exhausted again when trying the password...

At first he would count how many times the bus was overturned and how many times he was blown up, but after that he became too lazy to count because it was all the same anyway.

The final result was that they walked into the base as if they were on a picnic, and did not encounter any problems on the way except for the two people guarding the door.

In fact, the two guarding the door were actually quite capable. At least Bai Ling didn't notice them several times and was almost pierced through the chest by their knives.

Fortunately, he is dead.

Now Bai Ling still remembers the astonishment he felt when the two people in the sea of ​​consciousness thrust their long knives into his heart and he thought he was going to be killed, and then he crawled up from the ground.

Unfortunately, in order to achieve a quick victory, this scene did not happen in reality.

Thinking of this, Bai Ling couldn't help but sigh.

"Human Watch is not simple," he said to Peter, "This organization hides very deep."

"If nothing unexpected happens, this organization would have gradually shown its fangs in the future. But due to some... special circumstances, this group of lunatics intended to sabotage this exercise."

The elevator platform dropped rapidly, and Bering's voice echoed in Peter's ears: "Their plan is simple, they intend to destroy the younger generation of mankind and some of the high-end combat power of mankind. To this end, they set up a plan and invested all their spies in the committee, intending to eliminate the living force of mankind through this exercise, expose the cruelty and terror of the alien species to the world, and pave the way for their capitulationism."

Looking at the bright headlights above his head, Bai Ling said calmly: "If their plan succeeds, then humans will not be able to deal with multiple 'disaster' level alien species in the next two years at least. Not to mention that the situation has changed now, 'disaster'... may not be the end."

Peter felt suffocated as he listened to Bering's words.

Now he basically believes what Bering said.

However, it was precisely because he believed that he became more confused and surprised.

“Disaster”…isn’t it the end?

Could it be that there are other species that are actually above the "disaster"? !

Thinking of this, Peter couldn't help but feel dizzy. "Wait, 'disaster' corresponds to a monster that can cause a blow to humans that is no less than a natural disaster. In other words, this should be the upper limit of the alien species. But you said, 'disaster' is not the end? Then what is the end, the destruction of mankind? Or the destruction of the earth?!"

If the "disaster" is just the beginning, then what kind of monsters will humans face in the future? ! Looking at the pale-faced Peter and Roxanne, Bering was silent for a moment.

After a while, he finally said, "The time has not come yet."

"It's like when Orpheus heard the words of the Queen of Hell, he couldn't help but look back at his wife, and he was separated from her forever. If you know too much, the spring of fate will remain unchanged and there will be no variables at all."

"The acquisition of possibilities lies in unyielding courage and ignorance of the future. Those who know the future are often tightly bound by the rope of time. The more they want to escape, the tighter they are."

As he spoke, Bai Ling looked at Peter deeply and said, "Destiny is a very magical thing. The more you see, the more you will understand it. Therefore, knowing too much is not good for you."

"When the time is right, you will know."

After saying this, Bai Ling remained silent and said nothing.

He couldn't possibly tell the other two people that he didn't know either.

But no matter what, at least now, Peter and Roxanne were looking at each other thoughtfully.

They probably have their own understanding of Bering's words.

This is normal, after all, everyone is an adult and has their own independent consciousness. Many times when faced with this situation, they will complete it in their own minds.

This is also the reason why Bering likes to be a riddler.

It saves time and effort, and there is no need to consider logic.

With this thought in mind, the platform soon reached the bottom.

This is the last stronghold of "Humanity's Watch" and also the final step of their plan - "Ashes".

There is a long corridor in front of the elevator platform, which seems to be for vehicles such as cars to pass through. In front is a parking lot, and behind is a group of buildings that gradually narrows.

There are only a few cars parked on the parking lot right now, and basically no one else.

At the moment, the remaining people in this stronghold are estimated to be all concentrated in the second half. It seems that there are human watchers who are encouraging them to be more anti-human, so the security in the first half is somewhat weak.

That's perfect.

Crossing the wide parking lot, Bai Ling and others walked into the building.

When they opened the door, they immediately saw a man in a white coat walking out of the glass house in a hurry.

After meeting Bai Ling, the man in the white coat pushed his glasses subconsciously and said, "Who are you..."

However, before he could finish his words, Bai Ling controlled the mist and threw him into the pile of books next to the glass house.

With a "bang", the glass shattered all over the floor. The man in the white coat lying on the floor covered his waist and groaned uncontrollably.

At the moment the glass shattered, the red alarm instantly emitted a sharp buzzing sound like a "beep"!

The entire passage was illuminated red by the alarm, and even Bai Ling's pale face looked a little "bloody", not as white as before.

Glancing at the alarm above his head, Bai Ling turned his head nonchalantly and said to the three people, "Go forward along this passage and reach the third room on the left on the fifth floor. Go in, that is the laboratory responsible for 'Ashes'."

"Throw out all the researchers inside, and then bring in the security guards who followed you after hearing the alarm," Bai Ling said. "It will take blood to open that place, so let them bleed a little."

It is difficult to tell the researchers' positions, and they are still useful, so Bering does not intend to let Peter and others take action against them.

As for the security guards here...

Every one of them is a direct descendant of humans watching over those anti-humans.

It can be said that shooting these security guards in a row is a kind act towards them. Since these guys were chosen to guard this place, they are definitely not good people.

So let them be.

Peter and the others who received the order looked at each other and nodded at the same time.

The next second, they ran towards the stairs not far from the passage!

And Bering stayed where he was.

After taking a look at the white coat on the ground, he thought for a moment, then squatted down so that the guy's eyes were level with his own.

The two looked at each other, and Bai Ling smiled kindly: "Tell me, where is the CT0781 experiment being conducted?"

Facing Bai Ling's friendly gaze, the man in the white coat said nothing, but gritted his teeth and said, "Who would..."

However, before he could finish, Bai Ling slightly said: "Oh, so it's in the A17 laboratory, thank you."

After saying this, he stood up and walked towards the laboratory without hesitation.

Only the man in the white coat was left, slumped there stupidly, looking dazed.

What the hell?! I didn't say anything, how did it get exposed?! Is there a traitor?!

The same thoughts came to his mind as those of the two security guards before.

Bai Ling just gently stroked the white ring on his finger and walked leisurely into the A17 laboratory.

Right now, there was a researcher in a white coat in the laboratory, concentrating on the computer in front of him, and he didn't even know when Bering came in.

Standing behind the man in the white coat, Bai Ling glanced at the guy's computer screen and curled his lips subconsciously.

"Those guys in Human Watch are actually doing experiments on Luqi," he said. "Although I guessed it before, when I really saw something like this, I still felt 'Wow, this is so weird.'"

When he heard Bai Ling's voice, the man in the white coat was startled, then he looked up at Bai Ling and shouted, "Who?!"

However, Bai Ling just snapped his fingers lightly.

Soon, the mist directly enveloped the white coat's head, smashing his head on the table, making him unable to lift his head! The white coat with his head pressed struggled desperately, but no matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't break free from Bai Ling's restraints.

"Who are you? What do you want to do by breaking in here?!" the white coat said loudly.

Bering ignored him completely.

He just looked at the buttons on the screen curiously, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "Who opened the sleeping cabin..."

"Oh, yes, this is it."

As he spoke, he gently pressed the button next to him.

The moment the button was pressed, a moment later, the protective cover of the sleeping cabin in the distance slowly opened.

A burst of white smoke leaked out from the cabin and soon filled the entire laboratory.

About two seconds later, a naked black-haired woman climbed out of the hibernation capsule and patted her head: "Hmm... what time is it now? Is it the final stage of the plan? Have you merged 'Piercing Man' and 'Ashes'?"

She rubbed her eyes and looked like she was still sleepy. "This 'Abyss-like Catalyst Chamber' of yours is completely useless. Isn't it said that it can create an environment similar to the abyss-enhanced alien species and stimulate the growth of our abilities? How come I haven't felt any improvement so far..."

As she said this, she yawned and looked over here.

Soon, she stopped her movements.

Because at this moment, Bai Ling was standing on the workbench next to him, looking at an experimental log.

Noticing the woman's gaze, Bai Ling smiled and said, "Are you awake? The experiment was successful. The strength of your pheromone has been catalyzed by 0.356%."

Looking at Bai Ling, the woman stood there thoughtfully, as if she was thinking about something.

After a moment, she narrowed her eyes and said to Bai Ling: "Who are you?"

"I know every one of these researchers, but I don't remember you," the woman said. "Why are you here? Are you Rodney's man and are you planning to end this cooperation?"

Facing the woman's question, Bai Ling looked up at her.

"Good evening, Miss Luqi," he said, "I am the teacher of this exercise. Of course, I think you may be a little more familiar with the other name..."

Then, Bai Ling smiled and said, "If you don't mind, you can call me 'Prophet'."

"prophet"...

When she heard the name, Luqi probably didn't react at first.

Perhaps because she had just woken up, her mind was still a little stiff, and she didn't even realize that she was not wearing any clothes.

But soon, she finally remembered something.

"Are you the 'Prophet'?" She stared at Bai Ling with wide eyes, "The leader of 'Daylight'?"

Bai Ling smiled and said, "That's right."

"But looking at Miss Luqi's expression, it seems that she has some misunderstandings about me?" Bai Ling said.

Looking at Bai Ling, Luqi's eyes gradually changed.

Her eyes were deep. "Misunderstanding? I can't say for sure. After all, it's hard to tell how much truth and lies Qing Guang is telling. But there is one thing I can be sure of - that is, you seem to have some friction with our Nine Heads Divine Sect."

Hearing this, Bai Ling smiled and nodded: "Friction? Yes, it is indeed 'friction'."

"After all, I have a lot to settle with your Nine Heads Divine Sect." He raised his eyes, "Let me think about it, Lan Kong was seriously injured, Qing Guang fled... oh, yes, there is more."

Putting away the diary, Bai Ling looked at Lu Qi calmly: "I almost forgot about personally killing the leader of the Nine-Headed Divine Religion, 'Honglian'."

"These add up to little 'frictions'."

The words fell.

The next second, Luqi, who was originally at ease, suddenly had an extremely ferocious expression!
