Chapter 1510: Chapter 1510: Battle Again

Afterward, Gu Fan and Lin Xi returned to that room and saw Li Shi once again under Leng Le’s control, with a dagger held against her neck.

"Sorry, I don’t know what happened, I got caught again," Li Shi said, somewhat afraid, the icy sensation on her neck posing a constant threat.

Gu Fan didn’t mind: "Old classmate, don’t apologize, I am the one who implicated you, this guy came for us."

"That’s right, I came for you," the mysterious masked person snapped his fingers, then instructed Gu Fan to enter the Eternal Life Device.

"Is there a point to all this?" Gu Fan felt bemused, to lure Organization X down here, all this pomp, as if the enigmatic masked person could have just outright attacked.

Seeing Gu Fan about to step into the Eternal Life Device, Lin Xi grabbed him, her worried expression as though Gu Fan entering the device meant no turning back.

"Don’t worry, I’ll just go lie down for a bit, how bad could it possibly get?" Gu Fan wasn’t overthinking, figuring at worst he would emerge unscathed, at best, like the big boss, attain perfect eternal life.

"But..." Lin Xi wanted to say more but was interrupted by the mysterious masked person: "Enough, stop nagging, Lin Xi."

Gu Fan gave a slight smile to reassure Lin Xi, then resolutely stepped into the Eternal Life Device.

"Very good!" The mysterious masked person swiftly pressed several buttons on the device, and as its shell closed, Gu Fan quickly fell into a deep slumber inside.

The mysterious masked person picked up a camera and aimed it at Gu Fan in the device, sending the footage explicitly to Organization X.

"Xue Wang, Lord Xiong, do you see this? If you don’t come now, I will grant Gu Fan perfect eternal life, then destroy this only Eternal Life Device, you should know what the consequences will be."

At the command center of the Tower of Darkness, Xue Wang, Lord Xiong, and Mo Yun watched clearly; they obviously knew allowing Gu Fan to obtain perfect eternal life was certainly not good for Organization X.

Imagine, when Gu Fan was a mere mortal, he already caused enough trouble for Organization X, suffering heavy losses, making a fool of the organization.

But why did the masked person inform Organization X? The clear purpose was to force Xue Wang to come forth for a final showdown.

Xue Wang weighed the options, and after a long time finally decided to risk it all—one cannot simply watch the enemy grow stronger.

Lord Xiong tried to calm Xue Wang down, for to achieve eternal life, one had to find twelve people born on the exact same date and year as Gu Fan, but where could they find these people on such short notice?

Reminded thus, Xue Wang had a sudden realization and inwardly cursed for nearly being duped.

Just then, the masked person revealed another screen showing twelve people each entering twelve different devices.

Xue Wang and Lord Xiong were dumbstruck at the sight.

The masked person added: "Sorry to disappoint, but I’ve long been prepared with twelve people born on the same year, month, and day as Gu Fan, I’ve really put a lot of effort into dealing with Organization X."

Lord Xiong was skeptical: "You think you can deceive us by bringing in twelve people at random, and we would fall for it?"

"Not bad, Lord Xiong, thinking very carefully. Here are the details and information of those twelve people, take a look. If you don’t trust them, you can verify. I know Organization X has the means to cross-reference these individuals across the world," said the masked person, while aiming the camera at a sheet of paper with the information of the twelve individuals.

This caused Xue Wang and Lord Xiong to lose their composure, considering this could very well be true.

"This won’t do, we must act immediately," Xue Wang grew increasingly anxious, began assembling his forces, preparing a sufficient number of gas masks.

The situation was critical, even knowing it could be a trap, they had to take the chance; Organization X couldn’t just sit idly by.

The voice of the masked person came through the screen again: "Alright, I’ve said all I had to say. Whether you come to die or not, I won’t care. If you don’t come, the only outcome awaiting you is annihilation. Come and try your luck, maybe there’s still a slim hope."

The screen then went dark, the heavy atmosphere pressing on the heart of every member of Organization X.

Xue Wang was stunned for a moment; he had never been so panicked. He couldn’t understand how the mighty Organization X suddenly faced the danger of destruction. Could it really be his own fault for provoking the wrong person?

At that moment, Lord Xiong patted Xue Wang’s shoulder, telling him not to overthink it and just go ahead with the decision.

Xue Wang looked at Lord Xiong, suddenly feeling fortunate to have such a friend to fight alongside at this moment.

So, Xue Wang began reorganizing their strategies, with Xue Wang, Lord Xiong, Zhuo Hang, and Lie Kong leading a thousand vampire warriors, they entered the underground laboratory in batches—success or die for the cause.

As for the periphery of the Tower of Darkness, it was left to Mo Yun and the leaders of the Four Great Nobles to command, ensuring to stop those people at all costs.

However, there was a problem: many within Organization X were under the control of Qian Ying, so Qian Ying knew Organization X’s movements and passed the information to Qian Feng.

"Good, since Organization X sent their strongest to the underground lab, then you’ve given up on yourselves," Qian Feng stepped forward, indifferently facing a group of vampires who blocked her path.

The sky roared with thunder and lightning, its tumultuous noise frightening the vampires, none of whom wanted to be struck.

The big boss grew impatient: "If you don’t call out your Lord Xiong right away, I will kill my way through and exterminate you all."

The vampires had already experienced the big boss’s prowess; with each step he took forward, they retreated, their morale crumbling bit by bit.

The others realized the fight was about to begin, Xue Yin transformed into a gigantic shadow, relishing the thought of finally avenging her companions.

The hunter drew his sword, signaling Irina to hide aside, as the upcoming battle would be fierce.

Lin Yue moved slightly closer to Gu Ling, then whispered, "Stay close to me when the fight starts, or I won’t be able to protect you."

Gu Ling smiled slightly: "Okay, I’ll rely on you."

Hearing this, Lin Yue’s spirit lifted, feeling full of energy as if he could take on a hundred foes.

Ouyang Jin and Lu Yi knew their limits and quickly fled the scene—they didn’t want to get involved; with their skills, they would just get in the way.

Qian Xue looked on with disdain, secretly pondering why these two, despite being so mediocre, managed to remain unharmed every time. Maybe everyone around Gu Fan was under the protection of the Destiny Stone.
