From the Abyss Invasion to the Blasting Star.

Chapter 245: Dragon's Treasure, Finding the Traitor

The Infernal Dragon fell on the Blackstone Square, its head separated.

For such a huge dragon, even a single scale on its body is a precious material.

After clearing out the blood demons in Blackrock City, Lu Heng returned to Blackrock Square, ready to take the materials from the Infernal Dragon.

As soon as I returned to Blackstone Square, I saw Charles Water and Park Hyun-jin's team surrounding the Infernal Dragon and removing the scales from its body.

Charles Water, still holding a weapon, stabbed it into the eye socket of the Purgatory Dragon, trying to take out the dragon's eyes.

Most of the most precious materials on a dragon's body are concentrated in the dragon's head.

After Lu Heng cleared out the blood demons, he flew back along the wall of Black Stone City, leaped onto Black Stone Square, and said in a cold voice, "You guys are really good at taking advantage."

The Dark Iron Dwarves were searching the hidden corners of Blackrock City, and other psychics were cleaning up the escaped Bloodborn Demons.

The three teams led by Charles Water were particularly smart and focused on the corpse of the Infernal Dragon.

Seeing Lu Heng return, Charles Water quickly pulled his teammates back and said tactfully:
"Don't get me wrong, I just want to take the dragon scales off first. If you want them, I'll give them to you."

After he finished speaking, he put all the materials he had taken back on the ground, then retreated to a distance and went to other places to clean up the battlefield.

Lu Heng was a little surprised that this group of people were so tactful.

The battle is over, and it's time to clean up the battlefield.

Lu Heng held the Aurora Blade and dug out the dragon's eye of the Purgatory Dragon.

[Dragon Eye: Precious dragon biological material, can be processed into dragon eye gemstone, which has the effect of improving spiritual attributes. ]

There are two dragon eyes in total. If you find the right gem and craftsman, they can be processed into two dragon eye gems.

Afterwards, Lu Heng cut off the dragon horns of the Purgatory Dragon.

This is also a very precious material and can be used as a forging material.

When he wanted to forge the Aurora Blade for the third time, Master Gollum looked through the ancient books of the Dark Iron Tribe and found the formula needed to forge an S-level divine weapon.

According to ancient records, the Black Iron Tribe once forged an S-class magic weapon, and one of the materials required was the horn of a demon-blood dragon.

Although the Infernal Dragon and the Demon Blood Dragon are not the same species, they are both dragon creatures of the same level, but with different attributes.

Therefore, the dragon horns of the Demon Blood Dragon can be used as forging materials, and so can the dragon horns of the Infernal Dragon.

Lu Heng put away the two dragon horns and prepared to take them back as materials for the third forging of the Aurora Blade.

At this moment.

Several Da Xia psychics approached, including Wang Zhehan's four-man team and Zhao Liwen who possessed the skill of mental torture.

"Um...can we get some materials? Just some dragon scales will do." Several people mustered up their courage and asked for materials.

These people with special powers also participated in the siege and had the right to share the spoils.

Lu Heng pointed at the Purgatory Dragon and said, "Do it yourself. The more complete the scales are, the higher the value. However, leave one reverse scale for me."

"Okay, okay." When the group of Daxia superpowers heard that Lu Heng agreed to let them share the spoils, they immediately took out their weapons, stepped forward and began to peel the dragon scales.

After a while, Wang Zhehan pointed at the bottom of the Purgatory Dragon's neck and shouted, "There is a scale here that grows in reverse. Do you think it is a reverse scale?"

When Lu Heng heard his shout, he took two quick steps over and saw that it was indeed the reverse scale of the Infernal Dragon, so he used the Aurora Blade to pry the scale off.

The dragon's reverse scale is the hardest of all scales. It is used as a key part of armor and has maximum defense.

Finally, Lu Heng took another dragon claw, a bottle of dragon blood, and a piece of dragon scale, and the rest was divided among other psychics and the Black Iron Tribe.

More and more psychics came to peel the dragon scales, and the three teams of Charles Water and Park Hyun-jin also came to peel the dragon scales.

Although the most precious materials have been taken away by Lu Heng, the remaining dragon scales, dragon tails, and dragon bones are also valuable materials.

……

Not only human psychics, Darkvir also sent a team of Dark Iron Dwarf warriors to peel the dragon scales.

The dragon scale of a purgatory dragon can be used to make many sets of dragon scale armor for the Dark Iron Tribe, which is the top-level protective gear.

Lu Heng looked at the group of psychics peeling dragon scales and a smile appeared on his lips.

Now is the time when the conscripts are most complete.

The battle to retake Black Rock City has ended, and there are only two days left before the fifteen-day deadline.

The Dark Iron Tribe has recaptured Blackrock City and the Infernal Dragon has been killed.

There are no other threats to this world for the time being, and there will be no more dangerous battles in the next two days.

Therefore, after tonight, these recruited psychics will definitely disperse and find a place to hide for two days, and then return to the main world when the time to return comes.

The reason why I have to hide for two days is very simple.

Because there are traitors among human superpowers.

Lu Heng has just confirmed the completion status of the challenge tasks, and the second and third challenge tasks are shown as completed.

There is only one challenge task that has not been completed, and the first challenge task is: find the fallen betrayer and eliminate the betrayer.

The danger is not completely eliminated because of the presence of betrayers.

The betrayer may attack and kill other superpowers at any time.

Of course, the betrayer may choose to hide, fearing that he will be found out.

In short, this final chain of suspicion will cause all the conscripts to hide and survive the last two days.

What the betrayer will do is unpredictable.

Because no one knows what tasks the Abyss will give to the betrayer.

Lu Heng looked at the group of people peeling dragon scales and thought about a question: who is the traitor?
When the materials on the Purgatory Dragon were almost removed, some psychics wanted to leave.

At this moment.

Lu Heng waved his hand, and a team of Dark Iron Dwarf warriors stepped forward with weapons raised, stopping the psychic who wanted to leave.

"What do you mean?"

Lu Heng answered their questions: "You all should not have forgotten the first challenge mission, right? Now is the time when we are most present, and most of those who are still alive are here, which means that the traitor must be among us."

Wang Zhehan frowned and asked, "Do you still doubt us?"

Lu Heng shook his finger and corrected, "I doubt everyone except my team members. Similarly, you only trust your own team and doubt everyone else, right?"

This chain of suspicion is so subtle that each team only trusts their own companions.

In fact.

Even if they are team members, they may not be 100% free of suspicion.

After all, it is possible that a single member of a team might accept a betrayer's mission.

Of course, even if this happens, trust must be maintained within the team first.

After all, people who don’t have a strong enough relationship cannot form a team.

As for being betrayed by teammates later, that is another matter.

Several psychics who were still peeling dragon scales stopped what they were doing and became alert when they heard Lu Heng's words.

"Then what do you want to do?" Wang Zhehan asked with a frown.

"It's very simple. Please sit down and have a good chat to see if we can find the traitor. I have asked Chief Darkville to prepare the meeting room. Please go over there now." Lu Heng said, pointing to the meeting hall in Blackrock City.

The meeting hall has been cleared.

Outside the door, there were bloodstains and broken bricks and stones left over from the battle, but the meeting room was clean and tidy, with even some food and water on the long table.

After retaking Blackrock City, the Dark Iron Tribe will prosper again.

The humans represented by Lu Heng are the Black Iron Tribe’s greatest benefactor and ally.

The Dark Iron Tribe would naturally not be stingy with this little bit of water and food.

When the psychics present heard Lu Heng's proposal, they had different thoughts.

After all, if you stay, you may encounter danger.

If Lu Heng were to kill people one by one like Charles Water did before until the betrayer's mission was completed, then whether he would die or not would depend entirely on luck.

The psychics here have already completed three main tasks and two challenge tasks, and only the first challenge task of clearing out the traitors has not been completed.

In this case, as long as you can survive the last two days, you can return to the main world.

All that was lost was the divine energy reward for the first challenge mission. Compared to staying alive, the risk of staying was too high and the benefit was too low.

Therefore, most of the conscripts still want to leave: "Forget it, there is only one mission left, we don't want to take the risk."

"What risks are there to take? Now that the blood demons have been cleared out, the only remaining threat is the traitor. Only a traitor would be afraid and want to leave quickly." Lu Heng glanced at the few psychics who wanted to leave.

When these people met Lu Heng's gaze, they were startled and dared not speak anymore.

Lu Heng went on to say, "I promise not to wrongly accuse innocent people. I will make sure to find the traitors before taking action. So, those who have nothing to hide, stay. Those who have something to hide... can try to see if they can break out." As soon as he said this, the implication of coercion was already obvious.

All the psychics present were startled.

Just now when they were fighting with Purgatory Dragon and Salein, they saw Lu Heng’s strength with their own eyes.

At that time, no psychic dared to approach the Infernal Dragon except Lu Heng, who rushed within one step of the Infernal Dragon twice, first killing Salain and then beheading the Infernal Dragon.

Anyone who dares to run away from this kind of terrifying combat power is simply courting death.

The conscripts present immediately began to talk to each other, discussing what to do.

Lu Heng then added: "If none of you are willing to stay and catch the traitor, then I will have to treat all of you as traitors. It would be quite interesting to be the only good person in the room."

Wang Zhehan took a deep breath, raised his hand and said, "I am willing to stay and cooperate with you, as long as you promise not to kill innocent people, everyone with a clear conscience can stay with me.

"But Lu Heng, let me make it clear first. If you kill anyone before confirming the identity of the traitor, we will unite to resist you."

Lu Heng was very satisfied when he heard what he said, and nodded and agreed: "Okay."

Someone took the lead and agreed to stay, so those conscripts who originally wanted to leave had no choice but to leave.

Charles Water, Park Hyun-jin and several other teams originally wanted to leave.

After all, their relationship with Lu Heng is very tense and they are likely to be targeted.

Now that they saw that the conscripts led by Wang Zhehan had agreed to stay, they did not dare to leave by force.

Charles Water looked around, and suddenly pointed at a person in the air in the distance, and said, "What about that person? He is the one hiding the deepest!"

The person he was pointing at was none other than Xie Shien.

Xie Shien had been floating in the air, arms folded, watching the situation below with interest, never expecting to be suddenly pointed out.

Lu Heng looked up and shouted at him: "I want to catch the traitor, do you want to join?"

Xie Shien thought about it, a smile appeared on his face, and asked, "What if I don't participate?"

Lu Heng also smiled and replied: "Then let's see if you can escape from me."

The meaning is already very clear.

Lu Heng was determined to find out the traitors, and not a single conscript could be let go, including Xie Shien, no matter what he had done before.

Anyone who was drafted was suspected.

If Xie Shien is really the traitor, letting him go and letting the rest of the people conduct internal self-examination is a complete waste of time.

Xie Shien glanced at Charles Water, who had just pointed at him, leaned forward and slowly flew down, saying, “Anyway, there is still time, so I’ll play with you.”

All the conscripts came to the meeting hall of Blackrock City, and Dark Iron Tribe warriors were left guarding the door.

Lu Heng made a gesture of invitation and said, "The process may take some time, so if you are hungry or thirsty, you can eat some of the food on the table.

"If you are sleepy and can sleep, you can sleep on the table or directly on the floor. If you need to relieve yourself, I will assign someone to accompany you."

Zhao Liwen frowned and asked, "What about us girls? We can't..."

Lu Heng raised his hand and gestured to Su Muyu: "There are women in my team, and I can also call two female warriors from the Black Iron Tribe to accompany you."

Zhao Liwen nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

Wang Zhehan raised his hand and asked a question: "Is it possible that there are no betrayers here? What should we do if this happens?"

Lu Heng smiled and nodded, and replied: "First, let me tell you some key information. First, the betrayer is in contact with the blood demon, and passed the information to the blood demon."

"How can you be sure?" Most of the conscripts present had puzzled expressions on their faces, not knowing how Lu Heng got this information.

Lu Heng stood up, paced around the long table, and walked slowly behind everyone:

“It’s simple. Everyone should have seen the lava pouring into the mine at the beginning of this battle.

“However, I think everyone must be wondering why there are so many blood demons in the mine?
“Because they received intelligence that a member of the Dark Iron Tribe would dig through the west foot of the mine and enter Blackrock City from the mine.

“Two years ago, Chief Darkville used the complex passages in the mines to enter Blackrock City.

“So, when the Blood Demon heard this plan again, he did not doubt it and arranged a large number of Blood Demons in the mine to ambush the Black Iron Tribe warriors.

"This strategy of entering Black Rock City through the mines was a plan that I came up with after discussing it with Chief Darkville all night.

“However, everyone present here does not know about this plan because this offensive plan has never been announced.

“The attack plan we announced is to focus on the side gate of Black Stone City, and at the same time send a team of fighters with flying abilities to airdrop into Black Stone City and open the city gate.

“That is to say, the plan to go through the mines is a secret plan.

“If it was a secret plan, why was it leaked?
“The reason is simple. A traitor present here heard about this secret plan and passed it on to the Blood Devil.

“What this betrayer doesn’t know is that this secret plan is actually a trap.

"The goal is to lure the blood demons into the mine, then blast the lava river and drown all of them in the mine."

After hearing this story, everyone took a deep breath.

This move is actually quite dangerous. If there is a problem with any joint, it may fail.

Of course, even if one of the steps did not go as expected, the Black Iron Tribe would not suffer any loss. It was just that the lava attack was not successful, and the subsequent siege would be very difficult.

The original plan to retake Black Rock City was to find a glimmer of hope in the desperate situation.

Fortunately, as expected, this traitor overheard the plan that Lu Heng and Darkville discussed all night.

This plan was finally realized.

While Lu Heng was telling this story, his eyes were always observing all the conscripts present.

The conscripts present were unaware of the course of this incident, but the betrayers were aware of it.

So, theoretically speaking, the betrayer's expression would be different when he hears these things.

However, Lu Heng looked around and did not find anyone with any special reaction.

This shows that the betrayer has very good psychological quality.

Time passes slowly.

The feeling of catching a traitor is not good.

Because everyone is worried about being suspected. If they are suspected by everyone and die unjustly, they will have no chance to resist.

Charles Water said, "Stop telling stories. The plan you arranged is indeed powerful, but now it's time to catch the traitor. Let's get to the point. What methods do you have to catch the traitor?"

Lu Heng smiled and said, "In fact, the method is very simple. We have done it before. Everyone accepts Zhao Liwen's mental torture. Her mental torture skills basically have no side effects. This is certain."

When Charles Water heard this plan, he immediately agreed: "I agree with this method, and we have already accepted her mental torture last time, which has proved that we are not traitors, so it's your turn next."

As he spoke, he pointed at the Daxia psychics present.

The last time, they had a conflict with the Da Xia superpowers. Lu Heng arrived and forced them to accept Zhao Liwen's mental torture.

Lu Heng corrected: "Last time was last time, this time is this time. What if I accept the betrayer mission in this abyss battlefield?"

Charles Water's face darkened, and he said, "Okay, we can do another mental torture. But we've already done it once, we can't start with us again this time, right? Mental torture skills are also very energy-consuming, so let's start with the most suspicious ones."

The conscripts present began to argue over who would be the first to be mentally tortured.

"I think we have to draw lots. Otherwise it would be unfair to let anyone go first."

"The draw isn't necessarily fair."

Lu Heng watched these people arguing, a smile appeared on his lips, he took out a stack of papers, handed them out and said: "Drawing lots is unfair, I think we should arrange the order according to today's fighting enthusiasm.

"The traitors are in collusion with the blood demons. When fighting, they will definitely have other ideas, so this method is the fairest."

"Then how do we determine who has low fighting enthusiasm? Voting?" someone asked.

Lu Heng waved and called in a warrior from the Black Iron Tribe, saying, "No need. I asked the Black Iron Tribe to take charge of the records. There are no traitors in the Black Iron Tribe, so they are a third party and their evaluation is the most objective."

A warrior from the Black Iron Tribe came in, holding a record in his hand, and said, "The two teams that are least active in the battle are..."

He pointed at Charles Water and Park Hyun-jin.

Charles Water and Park Hyun-jin immediately jumped up and argued, "You are targeting me on purpose! You have a good relationship with the Black Iron Tribe, so it must have been you who arranged this."

Lu Heng ignored him, looked at the others, and asked, "Do you have any objection to starting the mental torture from the two teams?"

It is impossible for other people to have any objections. At this time, as long as it does not affect them, they will definitely agree first.

What's more, Charles Water had previously wanted to force several Daxia superpowers present to testify, so he had a grudge against them.

"It's up to you. Do you agree to accept mental torture?" Lu Heng looked at Charles Water and Park Hyun-jin.

Charles Water's face looked a little ugly, but he finally endured it: "Okay, I'll tolerate you one more time. Allen, you go first and accept her mental torture."

He signaled the psychic in the team, Ellen Bella, to go out and undergo mental interrogation first.

At this time, Lu Heng suddenly raised his hand to stop him: "Wait a minute, this time it doesn't start with her, but with you."
