The Last Commander of the Red Alert

Chapter 447: Grand Move of the Ghost Clan

One of the subordinates spoke, "Most of our informants within Ghost Clan are of relatively low strength. The strongest among them is only at the Seventh Order level. They cannot penetrate the core layers of Ghost Clan. The information they have is not very crucial."

Hearing this, the leader of the Humans was quite helpless. Of course, they were aware of this fact. Within Ghost Clan, only those with strength reaching the Eighth Order are considered truly high-ranking. A Seventh Order individual doesn't hold much significance.

Every time Ghost Clan takes action, the information they receive is delayed.

They had considered trying to turn the Eighth Order members of Ghost Clan, but it was difficult to make contact with them. Furthermore, they had no reason to be swayed.

Currently, Ghost Clan held the upper hand and was on the verge of controlling Yan Yun Star. In this situation, how could they be influenced by the Humans?

The situation on Yan Yun Star was different from that of Earth. At that time on Earth, the Mutants hadn't yet formed their influence, and the sole leader of the Mutant Beasts, Huo Yi, had been seriously injured by the South Emperor. He had to go into hiding to recover, leaving the Mutant Beasts without clear leadership.

Without a unified Mutant Beast force, no one wanted to give an advantage to other Mutant Beasts, which gave the Humans a chance to breathe.

Here, the situation was different. While there were distinctions between tribes within Ghost Clan, their authority was unified. It was said that within Ghost Clan, there was a supreme Emperor!

Yet, up until now, no one had seen this Emperor of Ghost Clan. Even the other powerful members of Ghost Clan were sufficient to deter the strong individuals among the Humans.

There had been ongoing debates among the Humans about whether the Emperor of Ghost Clan truly existed.

If this figure existed, then the Emperor of Ghost Clan was likely a Small Galaxy-level powerhouse surpassing even Planet-level. Such a being, capable of traversing the cosmos with their physical body, was not something they could contend with.

It was precisely due to the lack of proof that the Humans had some confidence to resist. Once this matter was confirmed as true, their first consideration would likely be how to escape.

Even a Ninth Order powerhouse would lack the confidence to face a Small Galaxy-level expert; it would be suicide.

"If that great individual were still here, Ghost Clan wouldn't be so arrogant," sighed one of the Human leaders.

The person he referred to as the great individual was just one a former Small Galaxy-level powerhouse from Yan Yun Star's Humans. However, this formidable figure was too old and had long since passed away.

A group of leaders reminisced about times gone by, while Su Chen was currently in contact with Spy Number Three.

"You're saying that Ghost Clan is preparing for a major event recently?" Su Chen asked.

"Yes, Commander. Based on the information I've gathered, the high-ranking members of Ghost Clan are already in preparations. If I hadn't pretended to be injured, I'm sure the invitation would have reached me by now," Spy Number Three calmly replied.

It's worth noting that disguise can only mimic the appearance of the other person; it can't replicate some of their special abilities.

If it wasn't for Spy Number Three's cleverness in choosing to feign injury, she would likely have to go back onto the battlefield. At that time, she wouldn't be able to use the unique abilities of a Ghost Master, and she would expose herself.

If Spy Number Three was currently at the Ninth Order peak, correction, she had already reached Ninth Order peak, but if she were to reveal her identity within the heart of Ghost Clan's territory, Su Chen worried whether she would be able to make it out alive.

After Su Chen reached Level 9 permissions, he immediately upgraded the four Super Soldiers and three Spies by his side to Ninth Order peak. This upgrade once again depleted his energy points.

The strength of Ninth Order peak was sufficient to handle most situations. Even if the Small Galaxy-level expert from Ghost Clan made a move, it would be impossible for them to instantly kill them.

"What are they preparing to do?"

"I had Ah Gou inquire about it. It seems they're planning to set up a trap to lure in skilled Human experts and then capture them all."

Ah Gou?

A twitch formed at the corner of Su Chen's mouth as he recalled that there seemed to be a servant next to Spy Number Three. Could it be him?

"What kind of trap could attract all the Human experts?" Su Chen couldn't come up with an answer.

Even if they were to unearth an entirely new ancient site, it wouldn't be able to draw in all of the Human experts unless the discovery had a powerful allure for all of them.

"Commander, I'll find out the specifics right away," said Spy Number Three, somewhat embarrassed. She felt inadequate as a spy.

Su Chen didn't blame her: "You've done well. As an injured Ghost Master, if you inquire too much, you might draw attention. Keep a low profile. If necessary, you can abandon this identity."

"Yes, Commander."

While Spy Number Three didn't have any information, Su Chen was surprised to receive a message from Spy Number Two.

"Commander, I've infiltrated Ghost Clan and become a confidant of a Ghost Clan tribe leader. Yesterday, this Ghost Clan leader got drunk and accidentally leaked some information."

"What information?"

"Ghost Clan is planning to use something called the 'Star Core' to attract all the Human powerhouses over and then eliminate them."

"What's the Star Core?" Su Chen inquired, as he had never heard of such a thing before.

"It's said to be something that naturally forms within the body after the fall of a Small Galaxy-level powerhouse. It's not useful for ordinary people, but it's quite significant for those at or above the Eighth Order. If a Ninth Order peak expert were to use it, there's even a decent chance they could break through to the Small Galaxy level!"

The information from Spy Number Two was incredibly timely. Su Chen was glad he had sent him out.

Considering himself, if he were an Eighth or even Ninth Order expert, and the opportunity to become a Small Galaxy-level powerhouse was presented, who wouldn't be tempted?

"A Mysterious Star Core suddenly appears, and the Human powerhouses won't suspect anything?"

"They've already prepared countermeasures. In Yan Yun Star's history, there has been a Small Galaxy-level powerhouse. They'll use this figure as a decoy to attract the experts."

Su Chen was left speechless. He hadn't expected that even historical figures were taken into account. Ghost Clan was truly exhausting all means to deal with the Humans.

Especially now, when the Humans lacked the utmost combat power, if they knew of this opportunity, at the very least, the majority would be tempted, if not everyone.

Su Chen was well aware of the greedy nature of Humans.

"How will they execute this? Ghost Clan won't directly inform the Humans about discovering the Star Core, right?"

"I'm not sure about that either. This Ghost Clan leader only knows this much."

Su Chen cut off contact with Spy Number Two and contemplated the matter carefully.

Ghost Clan would definitely use a certain method to make the Humans aware of this information. The least suspicious way to achieve this was to have the Humans discover it themselves.

"Interesting. I wonder how they'll do it."

Su Chen didn't dwell on it; sooner or later, he would find out. Human powerhouses might go to compete for the Star Core, but what did the Star Core mean to him?

As long as he had energy points, wiping out Yan Yun Star wouldn't be an issue!

Suddenly, an interesting thought crossed Su Chen's mind. (To be continued...)
