119: Chapter 119: Identifying Members of the Dark Federation
Jiang Tianhai's voice rang out.
"Is there any way to identify Dark Alliance members?"
Lin Fan got straight to the point.
"Mr. Chen? I didn't expect you to call so soon."
Jiang Tianhai was both surprised and delighted, and quickly replied, "There is a way."
"Dark Alliance members all have a two-headed snake tattoo on their left chests. It is usually invisible, but it can be revealed by injecting magic power."
"Got it."
Lin Fan didn't waste any more words and directly reported the district and name of the building.
"Immediately assemble Alliance members, seal off the entire building, check everyone who comes out, and don't let a single person escape."
"Mr. Chen, could it be..." Jiang Tianhai's voice tightened.
"That's right. This is a Dark Alliance stronghold, and the missing children are all down below."
"I will arrive a step ahead. Leave the surface investigation to you, and I will handle the rest."
After saying this, Lin Fan hung up the phone directly, not giving the other party a chance to ask more questions.
Yao Dong and the others stared at this scene, dumbfounded.
Their hearts were surging with stormy waves.
Mr. Chen ran over just to make a phone call?
And what's more.
He actually found the lair of the Dark Alliance in Baiyun City directly?!
Lin Fan tossed the phone back to Yao Dong and turned to leave.
Void Walk was already activated, and he stepped into the spatial gate in one stride.
In the eyes of Yao Dong and the others.
Mr. Chen simply turned around and vanished into thin air.
Everyone froze on the spot, unable to recover for a long time.
Alliance Building.
Jiang Tianhai held the phone, his expression grave to the extreme.
He happened to be in the conference room, and Wei Donglin, Fang Bin, and Vice Minister Wei Rujun were all present.
Everyone's faces were filled with disbelief.
They had heard Mr. Chen's words clearly just now.
But since these words came from Mr. Chen, they could not possibly be a joke.
Jiang Tianhai stood up abruptly, his gaze sweeping over everyone, his voice low and powerful:
"Move out."
Lin Fan stepped out from the white space of Void Walk.
He was already standing in front of that Dark Alliance Building.
He glanced at a few ordinary people outside the building; the other party had completely failed to notice his appearance.
Lin Fan withdrew his gaze, not bothering to pay them any mind... He hadn't come for them in the first place.
He activated Void Walk again silently and dived directly underground.
That layer of concealment array was useless against him.
Lin Fan appeared in a hall that looked like a storage room.
A young man in his early twenties happened to walk in and spotted him at a glance.
"Huh? Who are you? How come I haven't seen you before?"
The young man asked as he walked toward Lin Fan.
Lin Fan watched him in silence.
"Didn't you hear me? What are you doing here?"
The young man continued to approach.
But when he got close and saw the white mask on Lin Fan's face.
His footsteps suddenly froze, and his face was instantly overcome with fear.
"Y-you are Chen Ping!"
The young man screamed in terror.
Lin Fan was not surprised that he recognized him.
A cold light flashed in his eyes, and his figure moved like lightning, suddenly rushing out.
"Bang!"
A hand-blade struck the side of the young man's neck fiercely, knocking him unconscious on the spot.
Just as the young man was about to cry out, everything went black before his eyes, and he lost consciousness completely.
Looking at the unconscious person on the ground.
Lin Fan hesitated for a moment: should he leave him alive to hand over to the Alliance, or execute him directly?
People of the Dark Alliance were ruthless, disregarded human life, and even refined living people into Demonic Beasts.
Lin Fan remembered that they had once attacked his sister, and not just once.
Thinking about what would happen to his sister if she fell into their hands, the eyes behind the mask turned as cold as ice.
No longer hesitating, stars lit up around his body.
"Space Bullet."
"Pfft...!"
A bloody hole was blasted directly into the unconscious young man's chest, killing him instantly.
His ribs were shattered, his heart exploded, and blood splattered everywhere.
Lin Fan watched all this expressionlessly, his eyes without the slightest ripple.
Anyone who dares to touch his family must die.
After dealing with the young man, Lin Fan left the storage room.
Relying on the underground structural map he had memorized with [Seamless Space Perception].
He knew the routes here like the back of his hand and was clear about the location of every Dark Alliance member.
The next location.
Was a huge secret room.
In the center of the secret room, there was a circular pool.
The walls and floor were carved with eerie runes and characters, the ink pitch-black, exuding an ominous aura.
The pool was filled with a red liquid; it was no less viscous than blood, yet it was definitely not ordinary dye water.
Lin Fan could feel the violent magic power in the pool, as well as the magic array carved at the bottom of the pool.
Beside the pool stood three hooded, Yellow-robed members, two burly men, and seven people who were chained up and covered in wounds.
Some were on the verge of death, while others were begging in despair.
"Shut up! You should be grateful to us; we are allowing you to atone for your sins!"
One of the burly men sternly rebuked them and shoved a shirtless man into the pool.
"Splash!"
The man was bound by chains, and once he fell into the water, he sank rapidly, his screams cut short.
The next second.
The array at the bottom of the pool lit up, the pool's magic power surged and churned, and the liquid bubbled and boiled like boiling blood.
Lin Fan: "..."
Beneath the mask.
His face was filled with disbelief as he watched the man in the pool being transformed into a Demonic Beast.
"So, this is the ritual for turning people into Demonic Beasts."
Lin Fan was silent in his heart.
He said a silent apology to the man in the pool... He hadn't been able to save him in time.
A moment later.
The figure in the pool broke free from the chains and leaped out.
"Thud!"
It landed by the pool, its scarlet eyes devoid of any emotion, scanning its surroundings hollowly.
It was exactly the same as the Demonic Beasts Lin Fan had seen before:
Exceptionally long arms, hair all over its body, scarlet eyes, twisted face, and it still vaguely retained some of its appearance from when it was alive.
The captives bound by chains saw this scene and were terrified, their souls flying away and spirits scattering, their eyes almost popping out of their sockets.
"Hahaha, good, very good! Throw the rest of them in!"
A Yellow-robed member laughed wildly and ordered the two burly men to throw the remaining six people into the pool.
Upon hearing this, the six captives who were still conscious begged frantically, struggling desperately, wanting to escape.
But they were locked up by chains and guarded by two burly men, not to mention that this was deep underground.
Those few Yellow-robed members were also Tier 2 Mages. Escaping was simply a fantasy.
The two burly men easily grabbed the struggling captives and dragged them toward the pool.
Just at the moment they were about to throw the people in.
A low voice rang out from the side:
"Wait a moment."
Everyone paused and looked toward the sound.
They saw a figure wearing a magic robe and a white mask standing quietly not far away.
"Huh? Who are you?"
A Yellow-robed member sized up Lin Fan and asked.
Lin Fan did not answer and walked toward them step by step.
"You're not a mute, are you? Even if you're a newcomer, you shouldn't be dressed like that; black robes aren't worn that way. Don't spoil our fun."
Another person waved his hand impatiently, telling him to get lost.
But Lin Fan did not stop and continued to approach.
It was only then.
That the last Yellow-robed member finally realized something was wrong.
He staggered backward, his voice trembling.
