Exotic Battlefield: I Can Activate Dual Talents

Chapter 473 - 375: Encountering the Soul Controlling Clan Again

"Well, have they awakened in advance?"

"That... no, they haven’t."

Cha Yuan replied, then quickly used his Personal Terminal to retrieve information on Zhao Xinrui and Zhao Xinzhong. But just as he uttered the words ’haven’t’ there, his brow furrowed ever so slightly.

"What is it? Have you discovered something?"

Lu Lin asked.

"Yes, I have."

"Zhao Xinzhong is currently in fifth grade, and in these five years of schooling, three boys have mysteriously disappeared within the school. Outside of school, approximately ten delinquent youths have also vanished mysteriously."

"The distinguishing feature of these dozen or so missing individuals is that they all had conflicts or arguments with Zhao Xinzhong or Zhao Xinrui before they died."

"Understood, Director, I got it."

As Lu Lin spoke, he extended his Spiritual Strength over the pair of sparrows perched on the tree that appeared quite normal.

He then allowed a hint of a smile to curl at the corner of his lips.

Found it.

"Come with me."

Lu Lin said, and like a gust of wind, he swiftly swept away.

Three minutes later, they arrived in an old Residential Area in the north of Bovangpo City.

"Come with me."

Lu Lin repeated, yet suddenly, his face stiffened and he froze in place.

"What’s the matter, Lu Lin?"

"It’s nothing, let’s go see."

Without elaborating, Lu Lin led Cha Yuan and the others, flying swiftly to a window, breaking it open with force.

Upon entering the room, they were immediately confronted with the sight of a young man with wide eyes, a ruptured heart, and blood pooling on the ground.

Zhao Xinzhong.

Cha Yuan’s Spiritual Strength wasn’t weak, and he could naturally remember that this was Zhao Xinzhong whom he had just seen in the data file.

But how did he end up dying here?

"Boss, let Xiao Yan handle this, bring a few masters along."

"We’ll continue."

"I’ve already found them."

Lu Lin beamed with confidence.

An extraordinarily mystical matter.

Back at Zhao Xing’s home earlier, he hadn’t found any items regularly used by Zhang Yue, nor did the furnishings seem lived-in, almost as if staged for appearances.

There wasn’t a trace of usage.

Lu Lin knew then that this couldn’t possibly be a permanent residence for their family.

Yet the current high-level room they were in wasn’t it either.

Where they reside is...

Bovangpo City, 300 meters south of the Century Sports Center.

The truly upscale, affluent villa community.

Facing a house almost identical to the previous villa, Lu Lin smiled.

"Director, they’re inside."

"Shall we go in?"

Cha Yuan nodded, under Lu Lin’s influence, he too carried a playful hint as he walked to the door and pressed the doorbell.

"Ding dong—"

The bell rang, and a woman who looked about thirty, an urban beauty, came out. She seemed to have anticipated the arrival of Lu Lin and Cha Yuan, gracefully approaching the door and opening it.

"I’ll go with you, but please spare my child, she is innocent."

"She’s just a bit mischievous, not truly bad."

"Please give her a quiet environment to grow up in, okay?"

"Okay."

Cha Yuan said coldly, then with a jolt of spirit, he supported the limp Zhang Yue, preparing to take her away.

"Wait a moment, Director."

Without explaining, Lu Lin teleported into the villa, standing before the young girl, offering a wicked smile.

"Tell me, who are you?"

The young girl Zhao Xinrui peeked from behind the door, unexpectedly seeing Lu Lin right in front of her.

"Ah—"

Zhao Xinrui screamed sharply.

But Lu Lin seemed oblivious, staring coldly at her, motionless.

Lv Susu, Zhao Lei, and Cha Yuan hurried over as well, feeling a pang seeing Lu Lin being so harsh with a child.

It wasn’t an overflow of sympathy; Lu Lin just didn’t need to act this way.

Zhao Xing was Zhao Xing, Zhang Yue was Zhang Yue, they could be apprehended for trial if they posed issues.

But the child, the child was innocent.

"Alright, just say it, who exactly are you, and why did the Black Shark dispatch you to control a young girl, what is their purpose?"

"Wait, I think I understand, your Soul Controlling Clan needs a signal relay station nearby when controlling others."

"So, you controlled Zhang Yue to lure Zhao Xing into being a lackey for the Black Shark Society."

"But no one would suspect that you, a member of the Soul Controlling Clan, have been hiding within the human world all this time."

"Am I right?"

Listening to Lu Lin, Cha Yuan, Zhao Lei, and Lv Susu were stupefied.

This young girl in school attire was actually from the Alien Race’s Soul Controlling Clan?

Having been undercover in the Human Federation all along?

That sounds too fantastical.

"That’s right, Lu Lin, it’s no wonder you’re the only human expert favored by the Black Shark God Master; just by analysis, you’re far ahead of others."

"However, I’m curious, haven’t you realized you’re now in danger?"

"And soon, that room with my ’brother’s’ corpse will bloom beautifully, just like here."

"The Twenty-four Star Force Gathering Array, even if your ability surpasses the Star General Peak, you’ll need time to recuperate."

"It doesn’t exist."

Lu Lin shook his head, pulling a crystal stone from his pocket.

"This was found precisely where Zhao Xinzhong died. Though I don’t quite grasp formations, my eyes are decent enough to spot the Star Array’s core in that room."

"As for here!"

Lu Lin grinned, saying, "You should sense that the star arrays you’ve set up are now completely ineffective."

"Oh?"

Zhao Xinrui was taken aback—no, it should be the Soul Controlling Clan’s panic.

He didn’t expect such meticulous arrangements to be dismantled by Lu Lin.

But this plan was added on later.

As long as he could escape safely himself, that was enough.

"Escape?"

"Don’t overthink it, last time when you controlled Zhou Kun, I was careless, unaware of your relay station’s function. This time, I won’t let you get away."

"Come, let me see what’s brewing in your little head."

Lu Lin spoke, abruptly releasing his Star Power Domain.

The Soul Controlling Clan member’s face showed a flash of panic, just as he intended to leave Zhao Xinrui’s body, he discovered a problem.

He couldn’t leave.

The passageway, previously unobstructed, became sealed the instant Lu Lin spoke.

The Soul Controlling Clan member had a bad premonition.

Could it be... Lu Lin has other plans?
