119: Control Zhang Yong
"Do you know why I'm not continuing the fight with you? Because my injuries are recovering extremely fast, while yours are slowly worsening. I don't need to fight you anymore; I just need to wait patiently to achieve victory in this battle!" Huang Yichen's eyes narrowed into slits as he clicked his tongue softly and waved his hand.
"Hahaha, to think such a thing exists in this world. Rest assured, if I die here today, other assassins will come to kill Wei He tomorrow. You won't be so lucky then, hahaha!" Zhang Yong laughed towards the sky. He knew that if his mission failed, the organization would send higher-level Ability Users for a reckoning. With Wei He's meager skills, he wouldn't be able to resist at all.
"Do you really think you can kill me? I'm telling you, I only wanted to know who hired an assassin to kill me. Otherwise, you would have been dead the moment you appeared, you know?" Wei He walked out from the nearby forest, speaking as he approached.
"Are you talking about that God-Demon Level Ability User who was by your side when I first attacked you? Although his energy was powerful, his defense was too fragile. Did he put all his skill points into attack? I killed him with a casual strike. How could he possibly kill me? Tell me, hahaha!" Zhang Yong laughed arrogantly. The intense pain in his body caused him to cough repeatedly as he laughed.
"Is that so? You don't think I only have one such expert around me, do you?" Wei He glanced over at Zhang Yong with a sneer. Leaning against a tree with his arms crossed, he flicked his finger upward, and dozens of Chrono Legionnaires instantly appeared around them.
When these dozens of Chrono Legionnaires appeared, Zhang Yong's eyes widened instantly. In his understanding, this was sudden Space Magic, and these were God-Demon Level Space Magic Ability Users. To think Wei He possessed dozens of them! He was so shocked he didn't know what to say for a moment!
"The only reason you haven't killed me is to find out who hired the hit, but unfortunately, I won't tell you!" Seeing these dozens of Chrono Legionnaires, Zhang Yong knew he was no match for Wei He. However, he wouldn't reveal the information. He knew the methods of the World Destruction Alliance better than anyone; if he told Wei He, his family would be in grave danger.
"You don't think this is my only trick, do you?" Wei He remained leaning against the tree, pointing toward the sky. Several night hawk helicopters flew in, and after they landed, dozens of Radiation Engineers stepped out.
The moment Zhang Yong saw the Radiation Engineers, he was stunned. The God-Demon Level Ability User he had killed before was a Radiation Engineer. Now, seeing these identical Ability Users, he suddenly felt his situation was quite ridiculous. Although he didn't understand why their defense was so weak, they could use their numbers to make up for that disadvantage.
"As for these 'experts' in your eyes, I have as many as I want, whenever I want. Their power is far beyond your imagination. Want to stay and see for yourself?" Wei He spoke leisurely. With a wave of his hand, dozens of Chrono Legionnaires attacked a nearby tree. Since they attacked together, the time required for Space Erasure was greatly reduced, and the tree vanished instantly, leaving only a pit in the ground.
Meanwhile, the Radiation Engineers fired radiation beams at an intruding Flame Demon Spider, turning the house-sized creature into a pool of green pus.
"Hahaha, see that? He has even more powerful ways to attack. Which is more formidable, them or your World Destruction Alliance? If you're willing to join us, I'll heal your injuries, and the World Destruction Alliance won't be able to trouble you. How about it?" Wei He pointed at the Radiation Engineers, flashing his white teeth and speaking happily.
"Hmph, don't waste your breath. I won't betray the World Destruction Alliance. I saw through it long ago—though they are powerful, they are just your Puppet Beasts. And it seems they can't deal with aerial enemies, can they? If they encounter a true expert, could they still win?" When Zhang Yong killed the Radiation Engineer last time, he felt it was strange. Even for a God-Demon Level Ability User, having weak defense was one thing, but the man had no reaction when attacked from the air. Now it seemed these people lacked anti-air capabilities and were merely puppets.
"If you're really unwilling, then forget it. Yuri, he's all yours!" At Wei He's command, a bald man in a brown military uniform walked slowly from behind him.
"As you command, Commander!" After replying to Wei He, Yuri walked toward Zhang Yong.
Zhang Yong watched Yuri warily, unsure what this sinister-looking bald man was planning.
In a few moments of distraction, Zhang Yong circulated his energy. Despite blood seeping from his wounds, he didn't relax at all. He finally realized what the bald man was doing because a force was contending with him inside his brain.
"Commander, his energy is too strong. I cannot control him!" Yuri turned his head and reported to Wei He in a very eerie tone.
"Oh? As expected of a Zhentian Level Ability User. Even injured like this, he can still resist Yuri's control!" Wei He praised Zhang Yong's tenacity while giving Huang Yichen a look.
Huang Yichen understood immediately. He drew the qingxia demon blade and struck Zhang Yong's face with the flat of the blade, instantly knocking him unconscious. Yuri tried again. Zhang Yong suddenly snapped his eyes open and shouted, "No, don't! It hurts so much, ah!"
Unfortunately, it was too late. Just after he finished shouting, his eyes became dull. Yuri said slowly to Wei He, "A new comrade joins us!"
"Ah, hahaha! Well done, Yuri! Without you, I might not have been able to establish a foothold here!" Wei He said with great emotion. Because even with the powerful Red Alert Troops, if one didn't understand the human heart, they could still be plotted against and die without knowing how. This assassination attempt was a warning.
"It is only my duty. I am loyal to the Commander!" Yuri's eerie voice rang out again.
"Zhang Yong, I ask you, who exactly hired you to kill me?" Wei He walked up to Zhang Yong and asked directly. Linlin arrived at that moment as well.
"It was Grand Duke William of the Magic Empire!" Zhang Yong's eyes regained their luster at that moment. Now, his mind held only one thought: loyalty to the Commander.
"How is that possible? Wei He, he's lying to you. You are a Lord of the Magic Empire now, and you're helping them fight the Demon Race. Why would he kill you? This Zhang Yong must be lying!" Linlin's brow furrowed, her cherry-like lips pouting in an expression that was both cute and angry.
