Under one person: I, Zhang Zhiwei, the arrogant Zhang.

Chapter 795: Breaking into the Underground Base

On the other side, on the outskirts of London, in an abandoned manor thirty meters underground, the incandescent lamps above could not illuminate everything. In the dim environment, the members of the Sassoon family gathered here, huddled on the sofa, each of them dejected.

"Uncle, some of the direct bloodlines have entered here, and some have been arranged by me to other places through some means, and have dispersed away from London!" said David's nephew, Victor.

David's face was hidden in the shadows. He nodded and said, "It's good that you left!"

"Uncle, I don't understand, since the Knights want to shelter us, why don't we go directly to the Knights for refuge?" Victor said.

David groaned for a moment and said, "I mentioned this to Hirsing's butler Walter, but he told me that Hirsing is holding a meeting of the Knights of the Round Table to discuss how to deal with the leader of the Tiantong Sect. As a butler, he has no right to intervene in the meeting. After Hirsing finishes the meeting, he will report to him and then make arrangements for us."

"Hold a meeting? The situation is so urgent right now. Will we still be alive by the time he finishes the meeting?" David's younger brother, Albert, said angrily.

David paused and said, "Perhaps, this is exactly what he wants."

Albert was stunned and said in surprise: "We give them so much money every year, even if they are dogs, they should be fed well, how dare they, how dare they..."

He was very confused and cursed: "These damn pagans, inferior people, monkeys, pigs... How dare they treat us noble people like this!"

David looked at his brother in silence. Although he thought the same thing, he would not speak these thoughts out loud.

When Albert was tired of scolding, David slowly spoke:
"Although we gave them a lot of money, the greedy wild dogs can never be fed. They may want more, even the meat in our hands or even on our bodies!"

"If that's the case, then why should we deal with Master Tiantong? Wouldn't that just cause trouble for ourselves?" Albert asked.

"It's not us who are going to deal with him, it's him who is going to deal with us!" David said, "The reason why I don't avoid the Tiantong Church, but frequently provoke them and use all my connections to make things difficult for them, is firstly to get the protection of the Knights, and secondly to attract the Tiantong Church leader to cause trouble for us."

"And London is the territory of the Royal Anglican Knights. He will have no chance of survival if he comes here. Now we just hope that Hircine can move quickly and kill him before the leader of the Tiantong Cult finds us."

David is a vengeful person, and he judges others by his own standards. He feels that the Knights have suffered such a great loss at the hands of Leader Tiantong, and they must seek revenge. There is absolutely no possibility of reconciliation. Now Helsing should be discussing how to surround and kill him, and he just needs to wait for news.

"He's definitely dead!" Albert said harshly.

Although he looked down on the others and considered them inferior, he was positive about the brute force of this person.

"In that case, then uncle, why don't we bring everyone in the family here?" asked nephew Victor puzzled.

"If everyone comes here, we will be too big a target and it will not be good to attract attention. Besides..."

David paused and continued, "If the Tiantong Sect Leader is searching for us, they can attract some attention outside and relieve some of the pressure for us!"

After these words were spoken, Albert, Victor and others in the room felt their hearts sink and they didn't know what to say.

"Don't think I'm cruel. Although we are all from the same family, you are my closest people. At critical moments, we always have to make choices!" David explained.

"Brother, there is no need to say more. We all understand!" said Albert.

"Uncle, we all understand!"

Others echoed.

David's brows relaxed and he looked at the remaining members. In fact, the reason he kept them was not because they were his closest relatives.

Instead, they all manage some family businesses. If they die, it will be a hassle to get these businesses back into good operation.

Of course, since they can control the important industries of the family, in a sense, they are indeed the closest direct members of the family.

After calming everyone down, David said, "Everyone go back to your respective positions. Don't take this lightly."

Then, the people in the room left one after another, leaving David alone. He took out a blank parchment and recited a Hebrew spell.

Then, ink lines began to extend on the blank parchment, outlining the details. It turned out to be a map of the underground base, and the location of everyone in the family was on the map.

They appear on the map as small green dots with their names above them, and when they move, the green dots will move with them.

David scanned the map and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that there were no unfamiliar red dots on the map.

Then, he looked at the green dots. Although the people here were direct members of the Shasun family, he still couldn't trust them completely and had to make sure if they had any abnormal behavior.

This piece of parchment is called the Marauder's Map and it was produced by the London Academy of Magic.

The map contains a "micro-simulation spell" that allows the user of the map to have the ability to monitor and track the movements of everyone on the map.

"Albert paced back and forth in the room like an ant on a hot pot. He was old and had no self-control at all."

"After this incident, we need to gradually separate him from the family business. His ability is too incompetent."

"Over the years, the industries he controlled should have flourished, but they were delayed because of some of his decisions."

David looked at the other green dot with Victor on it and thought to himself:
"Victor is quite good. Although he lacks patience for details, he has surpassed Albert in some aspects. After experiencing this incident, he should grow a lot..."

David's gaze went down the underground corridor. In addition to the green dots, there were many black dots on the map.

There are words on the heads of these black spots, but they are not names, but code names. They are the guards in the underground base, and they are the death warriors trained by the Shasun family over the years.

They are castrated from childhood, devoid of emotions and desires, and are strictly trained Unsullied warriors who absolutely obey orders.

This is also one of the trump cards of the Shasun family.

However, David did not intend to use this trump card to deal with Tiantong Sect Leader. Tiantong Sect Leader was too terrifying, and the difference in strength was too great. Even if the Unsullied were to come out in full force, they would not be able to pose any threat to him.

But at this moment, he discovered something strange on the map.

In a corner of the map, the originally exquisite picture suddenly became distorted.

His pupils shrank and he quickly stared over there. That was the outskirts of the underground base, filled with all kinds of horrific traps. There were also hard alloy nets every few dozen meters, but these were easily torn apart.

But what was strange was that there were no red dots on the map indicating foreign invasion, as if they had been damaged for no reason.

"How could this happen? This shouldn't happen. Is there an invasion?"

David stretched out his finger and enlarged the map. The line-like picture gradually became clear, revealing the real scene there.

Suddenly, a shock wave spread out from the smooth iron wall in the empty passage, as if an invisible figure was punching the wall and shattering it.

Inside the shattered wall were alchemical lines that looked like plant roots. It was because of these lines that this area could be revealed on the map. "Who is there? Why can't I see it?" David was panicking.

At the same time, in the passage, Zhang Zhiwei, whose figure and breath were hidden by the strange structure, stroked the alchemical patterns on the wall.

Although he didn't understand what these lines represented specifically, when he touched them, he keenly felt that these lines were connected to the entire space around them.

Zhang Zhiwei said: "These lines connect the entire underground space here into a whole. There should be a connection center behind the scenes."

"We destroyed the lines here. There will definitely be a reaction in the backstage center. We should be exposed."

After looting all the valuables from Trent Manor, Zhang Zhiwei and his team found this place based on Helsing's instructions.

Originally, Zhang Zhiwei wanted to take out the Dongfeng Greatsword and destroy this place with a Flying Thunder Sword, just like he did last time when he destroyed the railway company in Bincheng.

But after taking it out, Lu Ci reminded that there must be a lot of treasures underneath. If the Flying Thunder Sword was used to destroy it directly, the treasures inside would also be destroyed, and that would be a big loss.

Zhang Zhiwei thought it made sense, so he put away his sword and chose to sneak in himself.

Unexpectedly, the defense here was extremely tight and we were exposed just after we sneaked in.

"Connecting to the center?" Lu Ci was stunned for a moment, then reacted: "Brother Zhang, are you saying that there is a similar arrangement to the Tang Sect's 'Observation of the Circle' here?"

"Guan Yuan" is a large pocket watch-like device that every Tang Sect disciple has in their hands. It records the disciples' Qi. As long as the Qi is nearby, it will appear on the "Guan Yuan" as a green dot.

However, if an outsider sets foot in the Tang Sect’s territory, he will appear on the “Guan Yuan” as a red dot, which is similar to the live point map.

Hearing Lu Ci talking about "viewing the circle", Zhang Zhiwei nodded and said:

"It should be something similar. However, the alchemy system is much more advanced than ours in terms of refining equipment. The ability of this thing should be much stronger than 'Guan Yuan'."

"Should we continue our sneaking?" Lu Jin asked.

"No need for that. Stop pretending. Let's get this straight!"

Zhang Zhiwei's mind moved, and he ended his stealth mode and revealed his body. He looked into the void, grinned, revealing a row of neat white teeth, and whispered:
"I'm here to kill you!"

David was staring at the map, and saw several figures gradually becoming clearer in the empty space.

Among these figures, three were looking at the patterns on the damaged wall, but the tallest figure turned his head to look at him, his mouth opening and closing as if he was saying something.

He couldn't understand what the other person was saying, but he recognized that face; it was none other than the Tiantong Sect Leader himself.

"what!"

David screamed, almost lost his balance and nearly fainted: "How could it be, why is he here?!"

The boiling panic almost swallowed him up. His mind was in a mess and he was rushing around the room.

Many people would place a fireplace connected to the Floo network in their homes for easy movement.

But after the Floo Network is installed, it will be monitored by the Floo Network Administration.

This is the secret base of the Sassoon family and cannot be known to the outside world. Naturally, it is impossible for David to set up any teleportation device here.

But this decision hurt him, and now he has an inexplicable sense of despair, with no way up to heaven and no way down to earth.

"escape?!"

"No, we can't just run away like this. The first bird to stick its head out gets shot. If we run now, we will definitely be targeted."

"Only by disrupting the situation can we have a chance to escape!"

"I have placed a portkey on the ground one kilometer away from the base. As long as you can reach there, you can use the portkey to teleport away."

At this moment, David's mind was full of thoughts.

The portkey is an item that has been cast with teleportation magic. Similar to the Floo Network, it can also be monitored, but it is disposable. This is the way out he left for himself.

David took action immediately and shouted to the Unsullied guarding the door:
"There is an invader in the east, heading this way. Go, gather your forces and kill him!"

"Yes!"

The guard left immediately and called the Unsullied in the passage, saying:
"There are four roads from the east to here. There are six people in each team. I will lead one team. Night King, Thunder King, and Fire King, you each lead a team to kill the invaders!"

"Yes!"

Everyone responded in unison, they had no idea what kind of enemy they would be facing.

Each of these Unsullied is an alien with an alchemical matrix engraved in their bodies, possessing a variety of abilities.

The Night King, Thunder King, Fire King and others all have five alchemical matrices implanted in their bodies. They possess five superpowers and are extremely powerful. They are the trump card for the Shasun family to make a comeback.

But unfortunately, the opponent he met this time was too powerful, and these trump cards were somewhat insignificant.

On the other side, Zhang Zhiwei and his group no longer hid themselves and walked forward for a while, where they were attacked by the Unsullied.

Although these Unsullied have alchemical matrices implanted in their bodies, they are still equipped with machine guns.

They lurked in the blind corner of the passage, raised the black muzzles of their guns, and fired crazily at Zhang Zhiwei and his group.

The sound of gunfire continued, and the orange-yellow bullet shells kept popping up like popcorn.

Suddenly, thin golden threads filled their eyes and strangled them, leaving only blood splashes of sudden collapse.

Zhang Zhiwei put away the golden thread on his fingertips.

Immediately afterwards, a team of fully armed Unsullied rushed out from the corner. The broken limbs and arms on the ground in front of them had no effect on them. They raised their guns without hesitation and shot at Zhang Zhiwei.

Zhang Zhiwei waved his hand again, and the sharp golden thread cut through. The bright red blood under his feet spread out quickly, leaving behind a pile of corpses.
