Let's start by analyzing the sun

Upon hearing Cheng Han's words, "It's not to say you are the mole..."

Female arcane master Lan Jiayao's mind felt as if enlightened, blurting out, "Vice General Commander Xu's family may have a problem!"

The scent of the Seven Star Drunken Butterfly Flower was a crucial clue; those who could access the flower were not only Xu Peng himself, but also his family living with him.

Others echoed in agreement.

"That makes sense!"

"Vice General Commander Xu's family is most likely the source of the problem!"

Jian Wanli also breathed a sigh of relief, decisively issuing an order: "Immediately seal off Vice General Commander Xu's residence, prohibiting all entry and exit!"

As the general commander of the war zone, he sincerely did not want to see his vice general commander become a mole, because it meant he himself would be implicated.

An arcane warrior immediately responded, "Yes!"

Xu Peng remained silent.

But judging from his expression, he was visibly relieved.

Cheng Han spoke up, "Time is of the essence! Why not go over there now and take a look!"

Past events, the near annihilation of the aircraft carrier fleet, the innocent civilians who were unjustly killed, and the plague that erupted in the war fortress, it's time to settle the scores!

General Commander Jian Wanli was a decisive person, immediately waving his hand: "Let's go!"

Before long.

Dozens of arcane ships swarmed into a huge passage, entering a majestic war fortress.

This was the East Mausoleum War Fortress.

This place was the central area of the war zone, and also the concentrated residence of arcane warriors and their families.

In order to facilitate observation of the situation and command of the army, the central area was set up on the top floor of the war fortress, while the family area was arranged in the largest bottom area.

Soon.

Cheng Han saw a luxurious residence surrounded by a tight security cordon.

In the Arcane Palace, arcane warriors all possessed a vast living hall. The higher the rank of the arcane warrior, the larger the palace.

In the war zone, due to environmental limitations, even high-level arcane masters could only be assigned a five-story residence, occupying an area of nearly one acre.

Nevertheless, this condition was still far better than that of ordinary civilians.

*

One kilometer away.

A calico cat was squatting in a rooftop garden, quietly gazing at a luxurious residence in the distance.

Its large cat eyes were flashing with a dim blue light.

This was a Netherworld Cat.

Its name was—Ah Li.

Out of some kind of perverse humor, the group of Netherworld beings Cheng Han left in the Youmiao Realm were all in animal form, none in human form.

Back then, Ah Li traveled to all the war fortresses in the war zone, thoroughly investigating thousands of connections, and finally discovered that the source actually came from that luxurious residence.

To be honest.

This result greatly surprised Cheng Han.

Who would have thought that someone living in a secluded mansion, who rarely interacted with the outside world, would actually be the mole stirring up the East Li war zone?

But from another perspective.

Lurking beside a vice general commander, neither attracting attention nor making it easy to obtain various intelligence from the war zone's central area, was indeed a stroke of genius.

The mastermind's cunning was evident.

"Bang! Bang!"

Footsteps suddenly sounded.

Ah Li retreated a few steps at the fastest speed, its body shrinking behind a low shrub.

In an instant.

The color of Ah Li's fur changed, looking very similar to the color of the shrub.

Even when observed up close, it was difficult to distinguish.

This was the unique ability of this cat—True Mimicry.

Not ordinary mimicry.

But a transcendent ability with a trace of "true" characteristics, even ordinary arcane masters could not see through the disguise.

In the past.

When Ah Li traveled back and forth between the various lotus islands on a floating wooden boat, it squatted openly on the bow of the boat, yet others still regarded it as part of the hull.

It roamed around in the various war fortresses, walking on the walls, with passersby regarding it as part of the wall, and walking on the street, with pedestrians regarding it as part of the road.

In short.

Ah Li was like an invisible ghost, appearing and disappearing in every corner of the war zone.

Although Cheng Han had not been in the war zone for long, with the help of this cat's eyes and ears, his understanding of the bottom level of the war zone far exceeded anyone in the central area.

A few seconds later.

Several figures quickly entered the garden.

This place was the most heavily guarded core area, and the people living in this area were all family members of arcane warriors.

They stood by the wall, watching the movements in the distance, whispering to each other.

"Why are there so many Scarlet Armor Army warriors? What exactly happened there?"

"My god! That's the core area of this residential area, probably Vice General Commander's residence, right?"

"I'm afraid something big is about to happen!"

Ah Li listened to the voices, gently wagging its furry tail.

One of the family members saw this out of the corner of his eye, but only regarded it as the swaying of shrub branches.

Like this household.

Many figures appeared in the rooftop gardens of every nearby residence, observing the great commotion in the core area.

*

In front of the luxurious residence.

A black-robed arcane warrior quickly came up, reporting with a serious face: "Reporting to the General Commander, there seems to be a very faint smell of blood inside the residence."

Thousands of Scarlet Armor Army warriors surrounded the residence, but no one came out to check the situation, even an idiot would know that something was wrong.

And this point precisely confirmed what Cheng Han had said earlier.

Xu Peng's face was extremely ugly, but he still did not speak.

After all, something major had happened to his own residence, and his suspicion had not been completely cleared, so he honestly remained silent.

Jian Wanli hesitated for a moment, turned his head to look at Cheng Han, and took the initiative to solicit his opinion: "Commander Cheng, do we need to storm the residence?"

Onlookers looked at this scene, all showing strange expressions.

With the status of a dignified general commander, to actually ask this question, vaguely implying a sense of seeking instructions, it was truly eye-catching.

Cheng Han pondered slightly, shaking his head: "The mastermind knows we're here; it doesn't intend to fight us."

He paused, stating the result of his deduction: "What's hidden here is just a wisp of a divided soul; its combat power is not strong."

This was actually not surprising.

The enemy was an excellent mastermind, of course they had already prepared a way out.

Jian Wanli said decisively: "Then let's go in and meet the opponent."

Cheng Han nodded: "Good!"

He glanced at Vice General Commander Xu, kindly reminding him: "The situation inside should be very tragic; Vice General Commander can stay outside."

The scene he had just deduced was extraordinarily impactful.

Even though he had seen many disgusting scenes, he couldn't help but feel a little nauseous.

Xu Peng said with a sullen face and a low voice: "My family is inside; I must go in and take a look."

As the vice general commander, if he didn't even dare to enter his own residence, how would he hold his head up high in the future?

Jian Wanli looked back at a group of subordinates, and instructed again: "The rest of you don't need to come."

The purpose of doing so was naturally to save some face for the vice general commander; otherwise, the tragic situation inside would spread, and the vice general commander's face would not look good.

The general commander took the lead, directly kicking the door.

"Boom!"

With a loud bang.

The two exquisite doors, carved with beams and painted pillars, were instantly kicked to pieces, a large number of fragments flying to every corner of the front yard.

Xu Peng's face twitched.

He didn't know that the general commander deliberately made an extremely rude move, in addition to venting his emotions, there was also a warning.

As the vice general commander, you didn't even know that such a big problem had occurred to the people around you; what the hell are you doing?

The others had realized that the atmosphere was not right; everyone dared not say a word, the scene was extremely quiet.

The three entered one after another, disappearing from everyone's sight.

After a few seconds.

Sima Nanshan lowered his voice, asking a question: "Vice Commander Lan, the core area may also have problems at any time; is the East Li war zone so dangerous?"

Lan Jiayao thought for a while, answering: "Arcane Master Sima, it's not as bad as you think here; as far as I know, this is the first time such a thing has happened since the establishment of the East Li war zone."

The female arcane master added with a strange expression: "It's just that Commander Cheng's ability to cause trouble… uh, to discover problems is too strong, which easily leads to this illusion."

Sima Nanshan's face twitched involuntarily: "That's true."

This former Heavenly Fortune Palace Master Arcane Master recalled a series of major events that had occurred in the Arcane Palace not long ago, deeply agreeing with this in his heart.

It was clear that only a small number of artisans and apprentices were not following the rules, resulting in low factory efficiency; all that was needed was to severely punish them.

But Vice Palace Master Cheng forcefully intervened, turning it into a major event that shook the entire Arcane Palace, even the Arashi Cloud Divine General was alarmed.

This astonishing ability to cause trouble was truly admirable!

*

Inside the residence.

Inside the luxurious bathing pool on the second floor.

The three saw a scene that made their scalps tingle.

They saw segments of naked human bodies, with blood-colored flesh worms drilling out of the surface of the bodies, merging with each other, thus strung together into a human centipede more than twenty meters long.

And the "materials" that made up this monster were undoubtedly the vice general commander's women and the servants in the residence.

This extremely disgusting centipede stretched out hundreds of limbs, sucking on the walls of the bathroom, with dozens of heads looking down from above.

A large amount of blood flowed down from the centipede's body, staining most of the walls red, and also turning the bathing pool into a shocking blood pool.

"You're finally here!"

Dozens of mouths spoke at the same time.

This way of speaking sounded strange and gave people a creepy feeling.

Cheng Han's throat moved, once again feeling nauseous.

Jian Wanli lowered his eyes, his fists clenched tightly.

Xu Peng only glanced at it, his body trembling, roaring in fury: "Beast!"

The human centipede ignored him, dozens of heads speaking: "You can actually find me, this surprises me."

Dozens of eyes looked at Cheng Han in unison: "You are Commander Cheng, right? You only arrived in the war zone today and came to my door, you must have discovered the clues, it seems you are more powerful than I expected!"

Cheng Han did not speak, nor did he want to speak.

The human centipede suddenly sighed: "When you discovered high-efficiency fuel a few months ago, I should have asked 'several sea gods' to kill you at all costs!"

The so-called "sea gods" referred to sea monsters whose strength had reached the level of gods.

The monster's tone was filled with strong remorse: "It's a pity you ran too fast; now the Wan Hao people are invading this world on a large scale, everything is too late."

Cheng Han was stunned, a sense of fear welling up in his heart.

Back then, when he discovered that the mastermind was targeting him, he decisively used the name of an experiment to return to the Void Wind Realm as quickly as possible.

Now it seemed that this was an extremely wise decision.

Jian Wanli frowned tightly, tentatively asking: "Are you a sea king under a certain sea god?"

The human centipede did not hide it: "That's right! I am Sea King Moma; the East Li war zone was the area I used to rule."

The Wan Hao tribe had advanced into this world on a large scale, and the war between the two worlds had been going on for so long, also clarifying many situations in this world.

One of them was that each sea god controlled a large piece of territory, ruling many sea kings.

And the strength level of the sea kings was about equivalent to the Xuan Du experts of the Wan Hao tribe.

The difference was that sea monsters' bodies were usually shockingly huge, and the naturally accumulated transcendent power was stronger.

Therefore, the combat power of each sea king was very powerful, enough to cope with multiple Xuan Du joining forces at the same time.
