Chapter 58: Puppet Master
The speed at which the Trascendent gathered was not slow.

About five minutes later, the last team arrived at the scene.

The leader was a middle-aged man in his forties.

He looked ordinary, and there was nothing special about his facial features and body shape.

He wasn’t as handsome as Xu Liushuang, nor was he as burly as Zhao Shouzhuo.

He even had a beer belly that was unique to his age.

Coupled with his kind smile and gentle temperament.

No matter how he looked at it, he looked like an ordinary uncle next door.

“Old Wei, you’re finally here. Now, we’re just waiting for you.”

Xu Liushuang complained.

Wei Peidong put his palms together and said apologetically,”

“I’m really sorry. I just went to the hospital to deliver lunch to my wife and came a little late.”

Zhao Shouzhuo was full of praise.

“Old Zhao, you’re still the good man of the Gu family as always.”

“Trascendent also need to live a stable life.”

Wei Peidong turned to Xu Liushuang.

“Speaking of which, what exactly happened? You didn’t explain it clearly over the phone.”

“It’s not convenient to talk over the phone. Since everyone is here, I’ll explain the situation in detail now.”

Xu Liushuang looked at the gathered crowd with a serious expression and said,

“Today’s incident can be traced back to ten days ago.

At that time, a member of the Zhenwu team suddenly disappeared mysteriously.

Captain Wu Rui sent someone to investigate.

In the end, after an investigation, it was discovered that it was not only the team member who had gone missing.

Among the people, at least four Trascendent had gone missing.

This became a big case.

The Zhenwu team began to pursue this case with all their might.

They were trying to find the missing Trascendent.

During these days of continuous operations.

They had found clues about the mastermind.

In the end, he tracked them all the way to this happy neighborhood.

Inside the collapsed Building No. 3, Room 302.

They found a space fragment.”

” Space fragment?”

Zhao Shouzhuo frowned.

Wei Peidong was also surprised.

The surrounding Trascendent were in an uproar.

Xu Liushuang stretched out her hand and continued,

“Perhaps many people already know that spatial fragments are a special form of space.

When the Origin World and our world collide, cracks often form at the point of contact.

However, there were also some special circumstances that would cause the entire space to shatter.

Many spatial fragments would be formed here.

There were different sizes of space fragments. Some were as small as a grain of rice, and some were even larger than a city.

After the collision, these fragments might remain in the original world.

It was also possible that they would crash into other worlds.

It was also possible that they would drift in the endless void.

What they found this time was a spatial fragment that crashed into our world.

This fragment came from the the Origin World. After entering our world, it did not completely descend.

It remained in subspace, parallel to our world.

The only link point was the point of impact.

It was in Room 302 of Building 3.

After finding the source, the Zhenwu team was worried about the safety of the Trascendent and took the lead in investigating.

In their opinion, even if they couldn’t save those Trascendent, they could at least find out the situation inside and prepare for the next operation.

Who knew that they would encounter unimaginable danger in there? In the end, only one of them escaped, and the entire residential building collapsed.

This was the general situation.

If you have any questions, please ask them.”

Zhao Shouzhuo was the first to ask,

“What kind of danger did they encounter inside? So much so that he almost couldn’t escape at Tier 4?”

“There are three aspects of danger.”

Xu Liushuang raised her finger and replied,”

“The first is the environment of the Origin World.

the Origin World different from our world. It’s filled with violent origin power/energy. It can increase our strength, but it can also bring about pollution.

If he absorbed the Origin World s origin power/energy wantonly when his strength was exhausted, it was very likely that it would cause uncontrollable changes in his body.

Therefore, it was not recommended for Trascendent below Level 3 to enter this operation.

This included those above rank 3. They had to pay more attention to this and could not indulge in the abundant origin power/energy around them.

That is the sweetest poison in the world.”

“The second is the mirage demon of the Origin World.

We all know that mirage demon are usually weaker than Trascendent of the same level.

This is not because they are weak to begin with, but because they will be suppressed by the laws of this plane when they enter our world.

“Similarly, we will also be suppressed by the laws the Origin World we enter their world. However, the mirage demon lives like a fish in water and can display stronger combat strength.”

“The third is the mastermind.

What he could confirm was that the other party was a Tier 4 [Puppet Master].

[Puppet Master] was one of the five major profession that had a complete path to advancement. It was abnormally evil and demonic.

They could turn living beings into puppets and retain more than half of the other party’s strength, turning them into chess pieces in their hands.

What was especially terrifying were the high-level Puppet Masters. After creating a puppet, sometimes even the puppet itself would not be able to detect this change.

A large part of the heavy losses we suffered in the past were caused by the Puppet Masters.

This time, we’re not just dealing with that Tier 4 Puppet Master.

There were also the many puppet Trascendent he controlled.

Yes, those missing Trascendent were all made into puppets by him.

Although he still looked no different from a normal person.

But in essence, they could no longer be considered human.

There was currently no way to save them.

Therefore, if they encountered those puppet Trascendent inside, they would be able to escape.

You must kill him as soon as possible.

He could not show mercy to them just because he could not bear to do so.

This is irresponsible towards your own lives, and also towards your teammates.

Please don’t let me remind you of this again!”

Seeing Xu Liushuang’s cold expression, the surrounding supernatural beings were shocked.

Zhang Zhenyu’s expression was rather ugly.

Xue Qiaoqiao secretly gritted her teeth.

Chu Qingwu clenched her fists.

As for Su Mo, he had his arm around Ren Zehong’s shoulder.

There was a feeling that the atmosphere was not right.

Xu Liushuang glanced at him expressionlessly and prepared to make arrangements for this assault.

However, at this moment, Su Mo suddenly raised his hand and asked,”

“Deacon Xu, can I participate in the battle inside the fragment?”

Upon hearing this, the crowd fell silent for a moment.

Many Trascendent, including Zhao Shouzhuo and Wei Peidong, looked in his direction.

According to what Xu Liushuang had said earlier, the members of this operation were mainly Tier 3 and Tier 4.

A mere Tier 2 player actually wanted to participate in such a dangerous operation.

Was he underestimating the danger inside, or did he not care about his own safety at all?

Everyone’s eyes were surprised, but they remained calm. They did not show the kind of face-to-face mockery in novels.

Xu Liushuang paused for a moment before saying,

“You’ve just reached Tier 2. It’s better for you to stay outside. There are missions outside.”

“But I abhor evil the most!”

Su Mo said righteously,”

“Whether it’s the demons inside.

It was still the Puppet Master who had turned people into puppets.

I wish I could kill them myself.

Therefore, I strongly request to participate in this operation!”

“But…”

Xu Liushuang hesitated.

Seeing this, Su Mo quickly struck while the iron was hot and said,”

“Does that mean that I can make an exception and enter because I have performed meritorious deeds?”

“What meritorious deeds?”

Not to mention Xu Liushuang, the surrounding people were also confused.

Su Mo did not hesitate and pointed at Ren Zehong, who was beside him, and said,”

“I’ll report it! This guy was a puppet refined by a Puppet Master!”

The moment he said that, the entire place was silent for a moment, followed by an uproar!
