Netherworld Retrograde

Chapter 878: Chapter 411: Regret

The night was as dark as ink, at the gathering square of the East City Branch.

The lights were dim but resolute, illuminating a group of tall figures.

When Li Yelai arrived, the Champion Team One Ye Boshou, who he had summoned in advance, were all ready and assembled.

Li Yelai’s gaze swept over the team.

There were some familiar faces missing and some new comrades added.

Those comrades who once fought side by side, some had already sacrificed themselves on the battlefield, others had retired to the sidelines or retired due to injuries.

At the same time, newcomers had taken their places and responsibilities.

Such as Hong Ba from the Hong Family, he had passed the rigorous test of Team One, becoming a newly initiated Ye Boshou.

At this moment, he was solemnly staring at Li Yelai, his eyes full of respect for the captain, and anticipation for the upcoming mission.

Not only Hong Ba but other strong individuals from various families who had recently joined the official ranks, were also silently waiting for orders.

They might not know each other well, but they all shared common beliefs and goals.

This mission would be a test of their abilities, as well as an excellent opportunity for them to prove themselves and fully integrate into Champion Team One.

Li Yelai looked around and said in a deep voice: “Everyone, follow me to the battlefield!”

The simplest words received the loudest response.

“Yes!”

The crowd shouted in unison, their voices echoing through the night sky.

The next second, figures like specters leapt up without concealment, traversing the Giant City.

Their speed was extremely fast, their figures swiftly shuttling through the night, like black lightning, instantly cutting through the silent night sky, leaving dazzling trails.

Their goal was clear, to board the Netherworld Train at the fastest speed and head to Ten Thousand Dragon Lake!

On the streets, there were few pedestrians, yet a few pairs of eyes were gazing upwards at the rapidly passing figures in the sky. They were shocked by the sudden spectacle and stopped to watch.

“What is that? Are they Spiritual Ability Users?” a passerby asked in surprise, taking out his phone in an attempt to capture the rare scene.

Not far away, the Processor, Starfire, who was patrolling the streets.

Also looked up at the figure at the forefront of the team.

“They are heroes…” he responded softly.

….

Meanwhile, in the meeting room of the main city.

An elder said, “Have you decided to send the Night General?”

“He is the Eternal Chosen One, not afraid of the virus, indeed the best choice for rescue.”

“At the same time, he can transform into a causality-level Divine Monster, perhaps really having miraculous effects.”

“But I am still worried,” a middle-aged man said, “He just experienced a blow of truth… now sending him to the battlefield.”

“True, I think so too. Moreover, the Night General is the main force against the Book of Destiny, shouldn’t let him take risks…”

“You’re underestimating him,” the old lady slowly shook her head, “Hong Zhuang cooperated with him. She told me, the Night General values relationships, prefers to put himself in danger to protect his comrades. If we don’t let him go, we would truly be harming him.”

“As for the Little Mad King… rationally, I should trust. But…” someone slowly shook their head.

“However, we still need to prepare for the worst outcome, if Yang Chen does have an accident…. we have to ask the Supreme to intervene.”

“A twisted Champion… would be a great loss to humanity.”

“Yang Chen, Yang Chen…. what have you encountered, making you unable to extricate yourself?”

“Could it be the fate of the Champion? That presence hidden in the dark is finally making a move?”

“It’s timely, let that presence confront the variable of causality!”

…

Meanwhile.

In a factory warehouse of No.3 Border City, Bai Ya snarled: “Support Yang Chen? Led by Lord Di Yun personally? Why is this intelligence just reaching us now?”

“Our spies inside the official ranks are not in high positions. This is an urgent mission, Lord Di Yun had no time to notify us, and summoned the team to depart,” a believer responded softly.

The Blood God Sect sub-branch of No.3 Border City had already been eradicated by the official of the Giant City.

It was during that siege that the Giant City acquired the Netherworld Train and one of the keys to open the Immortal Palace.

Simultaneously, many spies were removed, and a large number of ordinary believers were arrested.

The power of the Chaos Faction in this Giant City was nearly wiped out.

The remaining spies were unable to obtain first-hand intelligence and only gathered information after the Champion Team One set off without concealment.

“Damn…” Bai Ya gritted his teeth, “Where is the Ten Thousand Dragon Lake?”

“Southwest of Qian Province, specific location is unknown.”

“Qian Province… isn’t that the territory of Jile?” the second Demon General Yu Mian said: “Should we notify the Jile Sect? They don’t know Lord Di Yun’s identity, if they harm him…”

“Lord Di Yun is the esteemed Chosen of the Double Gods, but has no friendship with Jile. Moreover, we dare not disclose Lord Di Yun’s identity to them,” Bai Ya said solemnly.

Indeed so, as Li Yelai returned to the Giant City undercover, this was known only to some high-level members of both churches.

As the Chosen of the Double Gods, they naturally held unparalleled loyalty to him.

But Jile…. though also part of the Chaos Faction, such intelligence absolutely must not be disclosed.

The problem circles back again. Jile doesn’t know the Night General is Di Yun and will have no scruples.

And even if they knew, what could be done?

The Chaos Faction is inherently enemies with each other, fighting over believers and interests, conflicts erupt frequently.

Even besieging Di Yun would be normal conflict.

Eternal Life and Blood God two factions only barely cooperate due to the Chosen of the Double Gods. Elsewhere, conflicts are still constant.
