Chapter 913: 237. Interrogating Dahei Jialuo again!_2

In such a situation, it seems that the defeat of the Human Race is truly inevitable.

Could it be that the entire Eastern Administrative Region is really doomed?

For a moment, Fang Ze felt a sense of helplessness rising in his heart...

After a silent pause, Fang Ze composed himself and began to test Dahei Jialuo. From their two interactions, Fang Ze could tell that Dahei Jialuo was extremely cautious of him.

Moreover, it was unclear whether Dahei Jialuo was overly deep in thought or had noticed something. Though he contemplated matters related to Fang Ze’s questions, he was constantly restraining his thoughts from wandering, which considerably slowed Fang Ze’s intelligence-gathering pace.

"I must find a way to make this guy lower his guard and change his state of mind..."

As Fang Ze pondered how to make Dahei Jialuo less defensive, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he composed himself, casually saying, "By the way, Your Grace Garo. I seem to have forgotten to mention. The day before yesterday, one of your companions arrived."

"Really?" Dahei Jialuo didn’t seem to care much.

Fang Ze nodded, "Yes. And the Outer Realm demigod who arrived is quite powerful, reportedly a destruction-level demigod."

Upon hearing "destruction-level" demigod, despite Dahei Jialuo’s efforts to conceal his emotions, his eyes involuntarily brightened.

Simultaneously, Fang Ze heard a voice of excitement in Dahei Jialuo’s heart, "It’s father! Father has arrived!"

"Indeed, he has noticed my troubles and came to rescue me!"

Hearing these words from Dahei Jialuo, Fang Ze’s mind buzzed loudly, almost causing him to freeze in shock.

"Father?!"

What on earth is this?

Demigods wishing for immortality can’t have bloodline heirs; no matter how close Dahei Jialuo and that destruction-level demigod are, they can’t be father and son, right?

Or could it be... a sworn father-son relationship?

Fang Ze felt somewhat puzzled.

He probed, asking, "Your Grace seems quite excited. What’s your relationship with that Venerable?"

Dahei Jialuo, hearing this, replied evasively, "There is some relationship. He is the strongest demigod of our faction. Violent and resolute in character. Once he decides on something, he won’t stop until he achieves his goal."

"Moreover, he always acts decisively and efficiently, never procrastinating."

"His arrival means you humans won’t be able to hold the Eastern Administrative Region."

"So, Fang Ze, I really advise you to release me, then I will put in a good word for you before him and bring you into our faction. Then, I’ll take you away from this soon-to-be shattered world, to the Outer Realm to await another reincarnation, isn’t that good?"

Upon hearing Dahei Jialuo’s words, Fang Ze’s expression changed slightly, as if genuinely tempted.

After a moment, Fang Ze tentatively asked, "Your Grace, would you tell me about the demigods of your faction?"

Perhaps it was the arrival of Venerable Yuan Gu that gave Dahei Jialuo great confidence, as this time he genuinely followed Fang Ze’s words, introducing the demigods of his side.

Of course, while he did provide an introduction, he also had his ulterior motives: he deliberately introduced some of the arrived demigods and some yet to arrive, telling Fang Ze all of them had arrived.

In this way, Fang Ze would receive a piece of partially true intelligence. If Fang Ze genuinely wished to join them, it wouldn’t matter, but if he tried to use this information to plot against Tuoya State’s Outer Realm demigods, he would likely suffer a major setback.

Fortunately, Fang Ze had the Late-Night Investigation Room, so even though he kept nodding on the surface, internally he kept memorizing the intelligence emanating from Dahei Jialuo’s heart.

Thus, using the arrival of Venerable Yuan Gu as a breakthrough, Fang Ze successfully lured Dahei Jialuo into revealing all demigods arriving at Tuoya State and understood the relationships, titles, and tricks between Dahei Jialuo and these demigods.

Five hours later, both with ulterior motives, they finally stopped probing, each satisfied, and ceased the conversation.

This late-night investigation was initiated by Fang Ze using the Late-Night Investigation Room to summon Dahei Jialuo, so he didn’t need to personally send Dahei Jialuo back to the demigod prison. Therefore, Fang Ze simply waved to let Dahei Jialuo return to his cell.

However, at that moment, Dahei Jialuo suddenly stopped Fang Ze, "Wait a moment."

Fang Ze paused in his movement, curiously looking at him.

Dahei Jialuo stood up, then looked deeply at Fang Ze with the single eye on his forehead, saying, "Fang Ze, I know you actually don’t want to join us; I also know that the reason you talked with me for so long was just to gather information."

"However, our desire to recruit you is true."

"So, I am willing to give you a valuable piece of intelligence. I believe it will definitely satisfy you."

Upon hearing Dahei Jialuo’s words, Fang Ze slightly furrowed his brows, looked at him, and asked, "What intelligence?"

Dahei Jialuo replied, "The plan for Venerable Yuan Gu to sweep through the Eastern Administrative Region was devised by me."

"And the core of my plan lies in four words: swift as wind. In my plan, on the fourth day after his arrival, he will directly advance to Tuoya State, giving you no time to react."

"According to the arrival time you just mentioned, today should already be the fourth day."

"You have a few hours left to prepare."

Upon hearing Dahei Jialuo’s words, Fang Ze, who had been strategizing all night, could no longer maintain his composure.

His pupils slightly contracted, and he looked at Dahei Jialuo with disbelief, "Are you telling the truth? You’re not kidding me?"

As he asked this question, Fang Ze’s ears perked up, eager to confirm the truth of his words from the voice of Dahei Jialuo’s heart.

And then, in his ear, Dahei Jialuo’s spoken and inner voices were completely intertwined, "Of course."

Fang Ze couldn’t hold back anymore; he immediately waved to disconnect Dahei Jialuo, sending him back to the demigod prison, then stood in place, contemplating...

One day, no... in just a few hours, the destruction-level demigod will again march to Xida State?

It’s all happening so fast?

Are these Outer Realm demigods in such a hurry to die? Rushing every time, not giving any time to prepare.

Moreover, if last time Xida State had Old Mr. Bai to protect it, then this time... no one can stop that destruction-level demigod.

If this time they indeed cannot stop this destruction-level demigod, Xida State will be finished, and Fang Ze will suffer great losses!

Bear in mind, most of Fang Ze’s assets, personnel, including Black Bull, Hei Po, Ying, and other Si Family experts are all in Congyun City. As a place of intersection between the two states, they would be the first to face danger.

Even if they could receive Fang Ze’s message and flee in advance, what about the ordinary citizens of Congyun City and its subordinate cities?

Since Fang Ze chose Congyun City, and its subordinate cities are already considered his territory, those millions of citizens are all regarded as his subjects.

How could he just watch them fall into the abyss of blood and fire!

Thinking of this, Fang Ze could no longer sit still, trying to calm himself: he knew that planning is better with more people, so he immediately circulated his consciousness, letting it descend onto the body in the provincial government.

Rising from bed in the provincial government, Fang Ze directly shouted outside, "Someone! Prepare a vehicle for me! I am going to meet the Chairperson!"

The loud voice echoed throughout the Si Family estate, and instantly, the previously dark and silent Si Family estate lit up with lamps.

Two minutes later, a convoy quickly headed towards He Weidao’s estate...

Meanwhile, on the car, Fang Ze glanced at his watch; it was now 3 AM. There were 7 hours left until the time Dahei Jialuo’s heart revealed for the attack.

He must find a way to save the lives of those millions of citizens in Congyun City within these 7 hours!

Meanwhile, Fang Ze was unaware.

While one of his bodies waited in the Late-Night Investigation Room, and another went to the Chairperson’s estate seeking assistance.

The iron door in the Late-Night Investigation Room and the corridor of the demigod prison was trembling slightly, as if wanting to open, but the Power of Faith gathered on it was inadequate to accomplish this...
