This factory has been abandoned for many years. The iron gate is covered with rust and weeds grow all over the corners and roadsides, and wild rabbits can even be seen there.
Ye Bai hid 800 meters away from the factory, carefully observing the surrounding environment.
There is no electronic monitoring system.
"No defensive formations, no traps..."
"It seems that many people are looking for Lian Zheng, so he dares not make any rash moves!"
Ye Bai thought to himself.
If the city defense department is setting up formations around the area, it's tantamount to telling them that something is amiss and they should come and investigate!
The Fourth Demonic Cult's headquarters was destroyed, the cult leader was seriously injured, and the high-ranking members suffered heavy casualties. Both its strength and morale plummeted to rock bottom.
In this situation, the partially paralyzed Lian Zheng was like a frightened bird or a rat hiding in the sewer, not daring to reveal the slightest clue.
In fact, Lian Zheng's choice was also correct.
These abandoned factories in the suburbs are rarely visited by people and are not a focus of the search.
If it weren't for Ye Bai, Lian Zheng might have actually escaped this calamity!
"Approach slowly, and run immediately if anything seems amiss!"
Ye Bai took out two items: the [Anti-Magic Disk] and the [Skull of Cerberus].
After the bloodline restriction was lifted, the former could withstand a massive amount of magical damage, which was Ye Bai's greatest source of confidence for this trip.
The latter can provide Ye Bai with 100 points of strength and constitution, causing his health bar to surge dramatically.
Ye Bai carried these two special items with him at all times to activate their effects.
Prior to this, Ye Bai had already stacked 30 layers of "Ready to Strike" to ensure that his output capability was maximized.
Then, Ye Bai took out nearly ten scrolls and tore them open one by one.
"Lightness Technique!" "Breath Concealment Technique!" "Focus Enhancement!" "..."
Light continuously shone from Ye Bai's body as layers of buffs stacked up, gradually raising his condition to its peak.
This mage is clearly incredibly powerful, yet excessively cautious.
"Disguise!"
After using the last scroll, Ye Bai glanced at the time.
"18:28:46!"
"These buffs can last for 30 minutes at most, and 15 minutes at the least. No matter what happens after entering the factory, you must retreat after 15 minutes!"
Ye Bai knew very well that fortune is found in danger, and one must be alive to enjoy it!
Within 15 minutes, regardless of the size of the gain, Ye Bai must retreat to ensure his safety to the greatest extent possible.
"Walk!"
The countdown on the watch began to tick. Ye Bai, with his body bent, swept past like the wind, leaving only afterimages in his wake.
"Wind Slash!"
Ye Bai had previously deployed several dummy puppets remotely, which were very well concealed and specifically designed for high-speed movement.
When Ye Bai retreats, these dummy puppets will be his best help in the retreat!
In less than 10 seconds, Ye Bai easily sneaked into the abandoned factory, only 500 meters away from Lian Zheng in a straight line.
"This guy is on the third floor."
Through the cement wall, Ye Bai could clearly see the scene inside.
What is he doing?
Previously, they were quite far apart, so Ye Bai couldn't see any more information.
In an abandoned office on the third floor, the decoration was surprisingly luxurious. The entire office was surrounded by special materials, like a bank safe deposit box!
In the middle of the office, there was a bed.
A pale-faced man leaned to one side, using his elbows to prop himself up slightly on the mattress.
Lian Zheng!
Ye Bai's goal for this trip!
At this moment, there was a display screen in front of Lian Zheng, showing a gloomy and old face that bore some resemblance to Lian Zheng.
"The leader of the Fourth Demonic Cult!"
The moment Ye Bai saw the other person, his pupils contracted and his breath hitched. This was a God of War level expert!
Sure enough, Lian Zheng has clues to track down the cult leader!
Ye Bai couldn't hear what the two were saying; their voices were blocked by a special material.
[Generating subtitles....]
The Eye of Insight once again brought Ye Bai a pleasant surprise.
I really can't hear it!
But he can see it!
[Lian Zheng: Dad, save me!]
Ye Bai: .....This is quite a unique translation style.
Clearly, what Lian Zheng said was longer and more euphemistic, but after being simplified by the Eye of Insight, the meaning was very clear.
Lian Zheng wanted to live.
The subtitles continue to update:
[Cult Leader: Stay calm, don't panic, I'll run first!]
[Lian Zheng: If you don't save me, I'll report you!]
[Cult Leader: You little brat, if you dare report me, I'll kill you!]
[...]
A father is kind and his son is filial; a father is kind and his son is filial.
Ye Bai couldn't help but sigh.
No wonder this family sided with the demon god.
Morality is like used toilet paper to them, utterly worthless.
When they were on the run, they made a complete fool of themselves, like drowning people who wanted to climb on each other's shoulders to escape.
"One and a half minutes have passed!"
While watching the melodramatic family drama of filial piety and parental love, Ye Bai kept track of the time.
The verbal sparring between Lian Zheng and the cult leader did not last long.
In the end, the cult leader made a compromise.
[Cult Leader: I'll activate the Abyss Plane Teleportation Array for you, sending your soul to the Abyss Plane. Once I arrive, I'll help you rebuild your physical body. How about that?]
Lian Zheng fell silent and did not reply immediately.
Abandoning his physical body will greatly affect his future strength.
However, he is currently partially paralyzed, and it would require a huge amount of resources to recover. Reshaping his physical body seems to be a viable path.
[Cult Leader: Hurry, the pursuers are almost here! If we're any later, I won't be able to help you, and we'll all die!]
