Chao Hong had been listening to the voice on the other end of the phone in the communicator without saying a word. Even when Chao Hui sent a distress signal, he still did not make a sound.
He is waiting.
Waiting for Lin Tao's choice.
However, in the end, Lin Tao still chose to kill Zhao Hui, which made his face gloomy on the spot, and he crushed his watch with a snap.
"Lin Tao, he knew Chaohui was my man, but he still did it anyway. Doesn't he give me any face at all?" Chao Hong said angrily.
“Lin Tao…Lin Tao…”
While calling Lin Tao's name, Chao Hong squeezed the watch in his hand tightly, making a crackling sound until the watch broke into pieces and there was no more sound.
As a wise man, he is naturally different from ordinary adventurers. Even if his watch is broken, he can quickly replace it with another one.
However, now that Zhaohui is dead, he can no longer find another Zhaohui.
"Lin Tao, you really don't respect me at all by not giving me face?" Chao Hong clenched his fists. He turned around abruptly and shouted, "Prepare a high-speed spaceship for me."
"Great Sage, you..."
"I'm going to the Blackest Star Region." Zhaohui said coldly.
That's right, Chao Hong planned to go to the Blackest Star Region in person to see if Lin Tao didn't even take Zhuo Chengyan into consideration because of his background. Moreover, he had another purpose for this trip.
…
"You don't repent." Looking at my corpse, Abel Gaoli said coldly.
"Forget it, he is after all a descendant of the great sage Chao Hong, let's find a place to bury him." Zhuo Fan frowned.
"Bury him?" Abel Gaoli sneered. He raised his hand and countless blades formed in his palm.
In an instant, these blades cut Chaohui's body into countless pieces. Then he controlled the telekinetic armor and threw out a telekinetic bomb, turning these fragments into ashes on the spot, making them impossible to repair.
"Let's go back." Abel Golly waved his hand and immediately returned to the spaceship.
Lin Tao and Zhuo Fan followed behind, but before leaving, Zhuo Fan seemed a little worried, and placed another ultra-high-energy micro explosion near Zhao Hui's body. When the three figures disappeared, the explosion went off with a loud bang, and the spaceship was turned into flying dust and ceased to exist.
After returning to the spaceship, the three returned to Trading Planet No. 7 again.
Since they had booked seven days on Trading Planet No. 7, and less than five days had passed, they were able to return smoothly to the original spacecraft docking station with two days left.
Just after returning, Zhuo Fan asked for seven more days because there was still a certain amount of time in advance.
In the hotel, the waiter with a face concealer on his right ear was also stunned for a moment when he saw the three of them coming back. Fortunately, Lin Tao and the other two had booked enough time in the hotel, so they were able to return to the suite smoothly.
"Zhuofan, what should we do next?" asked Abel Gaoli.
Among the three, Zhuo Fan is not only an analyst, but also Zhuo Chengyan's junior. Moreover, he was the first to propose this trip to the Blackest Star Territory.
"Find the whereabouts of that insect man." Zhuo Fan said in a calm voice, and as he spoke, he couldn't help but clench his right hand.
In his palm was the watch that was recovered from Zhaohui's body. However, Zhuo Fan had no intention of telling the two of them about this, so he could only hold his palm tighter.
"Zhuo Fan, please tell Senior Abel the news. He has an old account and may be able to find the information we want in a short time." Lin Tao said.
Zhuo Fan nodded. The reason why Abel's old account was successfully included in the hunting list was that this account had a certain degree of security. However, Zhuo Fan also understood that with Abel killing Zhaohui and his party, his account would certainly become useless.
While it still has a certain effect now, if it fails to fully play its role, once the hunting list finds out the reason, I am afraid this account will be cancelled.
"Senior Abel, please help me investigate the whereabouts of a bug man named Kongduo." Zhuo Fan said.
"Kondo?" Abel Gaoli frowned slightly, then nodded: "Okay, as long as there is a name."
Hearing that the insect man who needed to be investigated was named Kong Duo, Lin Tao asked: "Zhuo Fan, what else is there about this insect man that is unknown to outsiders?"
Since Zhuo Chengxun asked them to investigate, this insect man named Kongduo must contain more than just general intelligence.
"Kondo, a fourth-stage, eighth-level insect man." Lin Tao had just opened his mouth when Abel Gorey used his old account to investigate the news about 'Kondo'.
"Well, this is an insect man who understands the abilities of a pharmacist." Abel Gaoli frowned and glanced at Zhuo Fan. Seeing that he shrugged his shoulders and didn't say anything, he continued suspiciously: "Kondo, because of his ability to replicate genes, he has been classified as a first-level dangerous person by the Adventurer Association. The bounty is 10,000 insect extermination points, which can be combined with the points for killing ordinary insect men."
"Zhuo Fan, what's going on?" Abel Gaoli frowned, "With the ability to replicate genes, he shouldn't become a level 1 dangerous person, right?"
"Gene replication?" Lin Tao was stunned and asked in the same way: "Zhuo Fan, this kind of gene replication, is it the replication ability of that kind of insect?"
Lin Tao knew the most about insect replication, because he used this ability to deal with the insect man Hong Yun. He used the replicated insects made by Hong Yun to deduced Hong Yun's weakness and killed Hong Yun in one fell swoop.
Seeing the two of them looking over, Zhuo Fan sighed: "Lin Tao, Senior Abel, the so-called gene replication is just to avoid the outside world knowing. The reason why we have to make such news."
As he said this, he looked at Lin Tao and said, "If it's just the bugs replicating, I'm afraid Lin Tao can handle it alone, not to mention our dispatch."
The matter of Lin Tao dealing with the insect man Hong Yun had long been reported to the Adventurer's Association, so anyone who could get information from the adventurer's top leaders could know Lin Tao's abilities. Moreover, Zhuo Fan had always been with Lin Tao.
Abel Gaoli frowned slightly, then nodded. Although his strength was not as good as that of a wise man, since he had killed a fifth-stage level eight insect man alone, he was equivalent to having the strength of a tenth-level telekinetic master, so he also had access to a lot of internal information of the Telekinetic Master Academy.
He knew a little about Lin Tao's abilities.
"This Kong Duo not only mastered the genetic replication of insects, but also mastered the secondary sequence of genes. The insects he created are almost equivalent to secondary mutated insects." Zhuo Fan said.
"Secondary sequence of genes? He...he can create second-evolved bugs?" Lin Tao was shocked. He was a pharmacist who understood genetic changes. As soon as Zhuo Fan mentioned it, he immediately understood what was going on.
The so-called secondary sequence of genes makes a secondary change to the bottom gene, making it completely different from the initial change, almost like another organism, but this change only changes two or three genes, so the change is not large.
Even so, relative to ordinary people, this is almost a new change, so it is called secondary sequence change by professionals.
"Yes, after Kong Duo underwent a secondary genetic sequence change, he produced many new types of insects, so he was regarded as a threat by the top leaders of the Adventurer's Association. However, the Adventurer's Association cannot mention this kind of thing too much and can only treat it as an ordinary pharmacist insect man." Zhuo Fan said.
"Now, what we are looking for is this insect man who can undergo secondary genetic sequence changes?" Abel Gory frowned.
As a veteran adventurer, he naturally understood the troubles of this kind of insect people.
Once this kind of insect man uses this technology on himself, he may become another new kind of insect man at any time, and even experienced adventurers may not be able to distinguish them.
"My grandfather has given me its basic gene sequence, and this time after it entered the Blackest Star Region, its gene sequence remained basically the same, so we can still find its whereabouts in a short period of time."
Zhuo Fan explained again and again.
"What if something changes?" Abel Gorey asked with a frown.
"If there really is a change, it is not something we can control, so if we really can't find this insect man, then we can only consider our mission a failure." After a pause, Zhuo Fan continued: "Plus the special situation of Zhaohui this time, we need to find this insect man in a shorter time, otherwise, if he finds us, we will be in trouble."
"Trouble?" Abel Gaoli smiled bitterly: "Zhuo Fan, we used the hunting list to find Zhaohui's whereabouts, which is already a trouble. If we can't solve the problem of this insect man in a short time, I'm afraid we can't even get out of the Black Star Region."
Hearing this, Zhuo Fan frowned. If they used the Hunting List to kill the characters on the mission, once they were found out by the Hunting List, they would be hunted down by the Hunting List until they died.
Lin Tao asked: "Zhuo Fan, honestly, how much time do we have left?"
If they were to track down an insect man who knew how to perform secondary genetic transformation for a long time, the other party would most likely change into another genetic structure and escape from their sight. Therefore, Lin Tao understood that since they entered the Blackest Star Domain, their time was absolutely limited and it was impossible for them to track him relying on the original genes.
Abel Gaoli also looked at Zhuo Fan.
"Two months, we only have two months." After saying that, Zhuo Fan sighed again: "We wasted some time on the matter of Zhaohui. If we still can't find the insect man in the next period of time, we will have to leave within half a month."
"Half a month?" Abel Gaoli counted with his fingers and nodded: "Half a month is enough time for the hunting list to react."
"Zhuo Fan, I have a suggestion." Suddenly, Abel Gaoli's tone changed and he said cautiously: "Before we find the whereabouts of the Zergman, our spacecraft should try to operate at the edge of the Blackest Star Region. In this way, once the Hunting List reacts, we can leave in the shortest time. As long as we leave the Blackest Star Region, the Hunting List will have less effect on us."
