"Little Four, what is that?"

She had no qualms about calling Little Four out whenever she liked. She had went pa.s.sed the period of feeling guilty for using child labor. After all, she had been looking after him for over 20 years now. Her kindness had disappeared under the guidance of Number Five. Ling Lan was not a good person anymore. Of course, she was not an evil person too.

The more powerful Ling Lan became, the more information Little Four could gather. Hence, Little Four didn"t need signals to read data anymore.

"Huh? That is a miniature optical supercomputer. It was made using the same materials as your communicator. It is a communication bead." Little Four did some simple research and managed to find out what the bead was.

Ling Lan looked down at her wrist instinctively. There was nothing on it. Her communicator had been sent back to the headquarters of the 23rd Division to facilitate their mission.

However, Ling Lan"s communicator was an upgraded one. Her first communicator was destroyed after she first used her domain power. She knew that she would be questioned if she went to collect a new one herself so she looked for her father for help.

To protect his daughter, Ling Xiao took much effort to settle this matter for her. He used his status and power to get a new communicator for his daughter. Of course, this communicator was not so simple too.

The Federation would only give new communicators to formidable warriors who managed to achieve the domain realm. These communicators were able to withstand the energy released by domain masters. It can also changed its form according to its owner"s element.

After Ling Lan tried out her new communicator, she was stunned. She felt that she had jumped from a technologically advanced world to a magical world. Only domain warriors could use this communicator. This was why the Federation had the information of all domain realm masters and would only distribute to those who were qualified to be called formidable warriors.

To get this communicator and not become an illegal immigrant, no formidable warriors would conceal themselves as this device represented honor and a certain status. It was a good thing to them.

Also, if they didn"t register, they would be unable to get the new communicator. Without it, they wouldn"t be able to fully use their domain power. If they did, their old communicator would break apart. Then, they would be questioned when they would apply for a new one so it was almost impossible for them to hide themselves. Ling Lan could conceal herself because she had an amazing father.

When Ling Lan knew about the communicator, she was curious about the materials used.

Ling Lan knew that a.s.sa.s.sins would not bring any communication device on them when they went on a mission as it would increase the risk of exposing their ident.i.ty.

Ling Lan also suspected that the face which her opponent had might also be fake. The Federation had an agent which could temporarily change the appearance of a person. Its effects only lasted for a day but it was enough to carry out short missions.

However, no one knew what they would change into after consuming the agent. It was random. Hence, people with long missions couldn"t use this agent.

The communicator that Ling Lan had on her now contained her fake ident.i.ty. It was just a normal communicator so when they went out today, they left it in their room in case it would be broken in a fight.

"I have decoded it. Soul Society, Sky Rank a.s.sa.s.sin number 37. Nickname: Demon Fire… I can even login into the main page of Soul Society. Wow, there are all kinds of mission on their main page.. I found it. Mission: Kill Princess Guliba. S level mission. Remarks: A domain master is protecting the princess. The level has increased from to an S. The reward would also be doubled."

The information that Little Four found appeared in Ling Lan"s mindscape. Ling Lan looked at the blood red words in the remarks section. She frowned.

The Soul Society was the most famous a.s.sa.s.sin society in the human world. Their a.s.sa.s.sins comprised of two groups. One group of the a.s.sa.s.sins were raised within the society when they were young. Another group of them underwent many challenges and tests and to become temporary a.s.sa.s.sins. The temporary a.s.sa.s.sins were just bounty hunters who wanted to earn some extra income.

The Soul Society was so famous, everyone in the Federation heard about it. The society seemed to be exposed to the public but in actual fact, no countries were able to destroy the power that Soul Society had planted in their nation. No one knew where their headquarters were and who worked for them. They didn"t know who the a.s.sa.s.sins were too.

The Soul Society never gave missions face to face or through a third party. You needed a secret communicator to contact these people.

Even if they had the communication bead, they could only see the main page of the Soul Society. They could apply for a mission to be added on the main page and the staff members of Soul Society would gauge the difficulty level of the mission and the rewards for it. The rewards had to be sent to a designated account given by the Soul Society within three days. After that, Soul Society would upload the mission.

All communications were carried out using the communication bead so no information could be leaked. Many countries had tried using hackers to hack into the Soul Society"s mainframe but Soul Society had its own hackers too. In the end, both parties suffered great losses. The countries didn"t dare to do anything to the Soul Society anymore and let them run by themselves. After all, the Soul Society only wanted to target the a.s.sa.s.sin industry and had no intention of overtaking any countries.

Thus, Ling Lan knew that the situation was bad for them. They could escape the a.s.sa.s.sination this time but there would be more powerful opponents sent to kill the princess the next time. The longer they dragged, the worse it would get.

"Boss, the Soul Society"s rules are weird. Once a domain realm a.s.sa.s.sin took on a mission, no other domain masters can interfere with the mission unless it was confirmed that the domain realm a.s.sa.s.sin failed or requires help." Little Four read out the rules for Ling Lan.

"How long will it take for them to ascertain that Demon Fire is dead?" Ling Lan heaved a sigh of relief secretly. If only one domain a.s.sa.s.sin came one at a time, she could still handle it.

"When the spiritual power on the nameplate of Demon Fire disappear, Soul Society will declare Demon Fire as dead," Little Four replied.

Ling Lan asked in surprise, "Can a person"s spiritual power still linger after they die?"

"Of course. When you died in your past life, your spiritual power still remained for some time, right?" Little Four looked at Ling Lan with disdain. "You thought that you were a ghost that time. I was the one who kept your spiritual power, pa.s.sed it through the time crack, and gave you the opportunity to be reborn as your father"s child." Little Four looked up proudly. Hurry up and praise me.

Ling Lan touched her head. She said in a helpless tone, "Yes, Little Four is the best."

Little Four shook his b.u.t.t happily when he heard the compliment. Even though 20 years had past, Little Four still expressed his happiness in the same way.

"Did you keep Demon Fire"s spiritual power too?" Ling Lan thought about another domain master appearing in her mindscape… she shivered. It didn"t feel good.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

"No I didn"t. I don"t know him so why would I do that?" Little Four rolled his eyes at Ling Lan. Didn"t she know that it required a lot of energy to keep someone"s spiritual power? He took a lot of effort to build up his energy. How can he use it just like that? A good knife must be used to cut good meat… is that how you say it?

"I just kept the spiritual power in this communication bead so that the mainframe of the Soul Society will not know that he is dead," Little Four explained.

Ling Lan"s eyes lit up. "Little Four, how long can you keep this spiritual power for?"

"At most two days. No matter how well you keep this spiritual power, it will disappear," Little Four replied.

"Two days?" The time was a little short but they should have left Planet Kachi after two days. Hence, before arriving at the next planet, Feiyang Ship was safe.

"Actually, I can imitate Demon Fire"s spiritual power." Little Four thought for a moment before telling Ling Lan this news. He felt that his boss might need this information.

Ling Lan was elated. "Good. Do that until the end of this mission."

If she was alone, she would not be afraid of any domain realm masters appearing. It was beneficial for her to battle with strong opponents. However, she needed to send Princess Guliba back safely to Balaya Kingdom. She couldn"t just think about herself.

"I understand," Little Four smiled and replied.

"Tell me what you want to say." Ling Lan knew that Little Four was up to no good when she saw this evil smile.

"Boss, I just intercepted a message that was sent to Demon Fire just a moment ago. He was ordered to go back immediately after the battle and report information about you."

"Tell me the main point." Ling Lan didn"t think that Little Four just wanted to tell her this information. He must have some request.

"I tracked the source of the message. The source is not far away from here." Little Four looked at her with two bright eyes.

"What do you want?" Ling Lan raised her eyebrows and asked.

"I want to see their headquarters. Boss, let"s attack them!"

"Bang." Little Four was thrown away by Ling Lan.

When he appeared in front of her again, he was rubbing his head. He asked pitifully, "Boss, why did you throw me again?"

Ling Lan said coldly, "Attack? Do you want me to die?" If it was really the headquarters, she would be looking for death if she attacked rashly.

"No. I have checked. There are only some old people and young children at the location. There are no powerful people there. If you go over, you will easily dominate over them," Little Four attempted to coax with her.

"Old people? Children?" Ling Lan glared at Little Four. "Do you think that I am stupid? Will the headquarters let these two kinds of people exist in their society?"

Her sharp gaze forced Little Four to lower his head. Ling Lan continued calmly, "Send me the image of the location." Since Little Four said that he had checked the area, he definitely had seen the place.

Little Four didn"t dare to say anything. He immediately took out the images that his boss wanted.

A huge room appeared in Ling Lan"s mindscape with a young man and a few middle-aged men were standing in the room.

Ling Lan stared at Little Four. "Old people and children?"

Little Four pointed at them. "I just reported their numbers wrongly."

Ling Lan didn"t want to argue with Little Four. She asked, "Is there no one else besides them?"

Little Four nodded. He was sure.

Ling Lan pondered about it. She looked at the location Little Four provided her. It was only three kilometers away from her. With her powers, it wouldn"t require a long time… she looked at the positions of her own team members and made a decision. "Let"s take the risk then."

The next second, Ling Lan disappeared…

At this moment, Qi Long and the other team members were in a bad state. They managed to snipe a portion of the a.s.sa.s.sins using the high ground advantage and their skills but there were more people were moving towards them. They were unable to snipe all of them and some of them even managed to enter the building they were in.

"How many people entered?" When there was no one around them, Qi Long sat up and asked Lin Zhong-qing.

His finger hurt from the ma.s.sive activity just now. He was in a focus state so he didn"t feel it. Even his shoulder was in pain due to the recoil of the sniper rifle.

Lin Zhong-qing replied in a certain tone, "33 people have entered this building."
