From the Abyss Invasion to the Blasting Star.

Chapter 397 The Sixth Recruiter

Seeing the Void Stealer coming out, Lin Zeyu thought about his failed attempt to show off just now, and pointed the sniper rifle at the Void Stealer's head, asking:
"Tell me! Who was that person who just appeared here?"

“Gurgle…Gurgle…”

The Void Thief made a gurgling sound in panic.

Judging from the tone, it sounds like he is answering a question, but because of the language barrier, I can't understand him at all.

Lin Zeyu turned around with a confused look on his face and looked at everyone with a questioning look.

Lu Heng spread his hands to indicate that he didn't understand.

In fact, the Void Thieves have not developed any civilization, they are just a species with some intelligence.

In terms of IQ level, the Void Thief's IQ is higher than that of a Border Collie, which is roughly equivalent to the IQ of an eight-year-old human.

Therefore, the Void Thief can understand human commands, but because it does not have complete vocal organs, it can only make gurgling sounds, so it can understand but cannot express.

It is not accurate to say that it is impossible to express. The void spirits can communicate with each other in a simple way through calls, but humans cannot understand them.

Just because humans can’t understand doesn’t mean the elves have no solution.

Tyrese waved to the elven warrior behind him and called a wind talker who could communicate mentally with alien creatures to analyze the cry of the Void Soul Thief and then relay the content of the expression.

"It didn't see the people in the treasure cave. As soon as it entered the treasure cave, it was discovered by the psychic, and then it was controlled and began to circle around."

After listening to the Windtalker's explanation, all the confusions I had before were now explained.

In fact.

This Void Thief has been a servant enslaved by Clyde Savile from the very beginning.

When in Binhai, this Void Thief appeared for the first time and was controlled by Clyde Savile to monitor Lu Heng.

After Clyde Saville was arrested, Lin Zeyu tied it up and kept it as a plaything.

He was indeed tamed, but when he met Clyde Savile, he was enslaved again and had no ability to resist.

After hearing this explanation, Lin Zeyu could understand it, but he was still very angry. He used the muzzle of the gun to hit the head of the Void Thief and threatened: "If you dare to play tricks on me again next time, I will kill you. Do you understand?"

"Guji!" The Void Thief Spirit let out a cry and nodded vigorously.

However, this promise does not sound binding.

Lin Zeyu tamed this Void Stealer to assist in reconnaissance and also to allow the Void Eye to gain mobility.

Lu Heng thought for a moment and reminded: "In fact, next time you send it out, you can let it bring the Eye of Void. If something unexpected happens, the Eye of Void will naturally be able to see it, or if it throws away the Eye of Void, it can also prove that something went wrong."

Lin Zeyu immediately stared and said in annoyance: "Yes! Why didn't I think of it before."

As he spoke, he released a Void Eye and stuffed it into the Void Soul-Stealing Claw, threatening: "Keep it in your hand, or I'll blow your head off if you dare to drop it!"

"Guji!" The Void Thief held the Eye of Void tremblingly, not daring to resist.

……

Because of Clyde Savile's appearance in the Abyss Battlefield, Su Muyu thought of something and said:
"The supernatural prison in the war zone should be under martial law now, right? Clyde Saville suddenly disappeared. I wonder if Jian Qing knows about it."

Lu Heng did some calculations and said, "According to the time, it should have been almost ten hours since Blue Star arrived. Jian Qing should have received the news."

Su Muyu sighed: "It would be great if we could get in touch with Blue Star now, so we can exchange information."

Except for a few special magics or abilities, there is no way to connect the different worlds.

Under normal circumstances, if you want to communicate with each other, you can only do so through spatial anchors.

In other words, you need to complete the world mission, then choose the space anchor as a reward, and then use the space anchor to teleport between the two worlds to transfer information.

However, the difficulty of completing the world mission is too great, and the proportion of psychics who can obtain world mission rewards is very small.

Because the requirements for completing world missions require changing the world pattern to be achieved.

In the past few decades, the only event that could affect the world situation among the elves was the battle between the great arcanist Augustus and the Blood King.

Therefore, Lu Heng and Su Muyu are the only ones who have the spatial anchor point of the elf world.

Now we are in the abyss battlefield and cannot be teleported back to Blue Star, so naturally there is no way to bring any news back.

Lu Heng thought for a moment and said, "Before I teleported here, I left Jian Qing with a few tasks. They should have started now."

……

Before the transmission, Lu Heng did leave a few tasks for the special forces.

Just as Lu Heng expected, a large-scale investigation was currently underway in Binhai City.

In fact.

This operation started at midnight last night when Clyde Savile disappeared.

The task left by Lu Heng was very simple, which was to find the high-level psychic who had lost his whereabouts in Binhai City.

Before the transmission, Lu Heng had analyzed and believed that the main body of the conscripts for this Abyss Battlefield was located at the longitude where Binhai City was located.

Although it cannot be 100% confirmed that it is in Binhai City, there is no second first-tier city on the longitude line of Binhai City.

Therefore, the recruitment entity is most likely in Binhai City.

Combined with the danger level of the Abyss Battlefield, it can be determined that the level of this recruited subject is very high. He is definitely a first-tier psychic, or even a top-level psychic.

In Daxia, all high-level psychics are recorded in the military's psychic archives.

Although Binhai City has a large population, there are not many people whose combat power can reach the peak level, only about twenty or thirty people.

Therefore, if the above analysis is accurate, as long as it is confirmed that someone among these twenty or thirty people disappears after the conscription countdown ends, it can be basically confirmed that he is the main conscription subject of this abyss battlefield.

After confirming the identity of the subject of the recruitment, you can continue to investigate his or her identity background and obtain more information.

……

At this moment, it is mid-September of the second year since the Abyss arrived on Blue Star, at half past ten in the morning.

The special forces reconnaissance team sent by Jian Qing sent back information one after another.

"The location of target No. 1, He Jianyong, has been confirmed. He is at home and there is nothing unusual."

"The location of target No. 7, Li Chengyi, has been confirmed. He is at Qingkong Security Company. There is nothing unusual."

"Target location No. 16 confirmed..."

"Target location No. 19 confirmed..."

Every time she received a message, Jian Qing would tick the box on the list printed on A4 paper.

A total of 4 names were printed on the A37 paper, 30 of which were key targets and the remaining 7 were supplementary targets.

The reason why there are 7 additional targets is that the combat power of these 7 targets is not at the peak level, but the gap is not big. In order to ensure the accuracy of the information, these 7 people were added.

Now, there are more than twenty boxes on the list, and there are not many goals left.

By 11 o'clock in the morning, seven or eight reports confirming the location were sent back one after another.

Jian Qing took a pen and counted from top to bottom: "1, 2, 3..."

The positions of 3 people are still unconfirmed.

Jian Qing scanned the names of these three people and found some of them familiar.

After all, the people on this list are all the top tier psychics in Binhai City. Even if you have never met them, you have heard of them.

Jian Qing looked around and finally stopped at a name: No. 25, Ke Yiming.

"Ke Yiming..." Jian Qing repeated the name.

The reason why she paid special attention to this name was because Lu Heng mentioned this name.

After Clyde Savile was arrested, Lu Heng once mentioned a matter, requesting an investigation into the relationship between the Savile Group and Ke Yiming to confirm whether there was any hatred between the two.

Lu Heng did make this request at that time. Because of his reborn memories, he knew that in his previous life, after Ke Yiming obtained the fourth job rank [Agent of Death], he was the first to take action against the Xavier family.

Because of this memory, Lu Heng has always wanted to find out what kind of hatred there is between Ke Yiming and the Savile family, but he can't find it.

After checking all the information, there is no connection between the two.

Of course, Jian Qing didn't know this information. She only knew that Lu Heng asked her to investigate the relationship between Ke Yiming and the Savile Group.

So, when she saw the name, she paid more attention to it.

She held the mouse, opened the military's archive of superpowers, logged in with a captain-level account, and retrieved Ke Yiming's file.

"Energy level 45, third-class class [Lawbreaker], senior mercenary of the Liwei Mercenary Group..."

She read out Ke Yiming's message while thinking.

Ke Yiming is indeed a top-level psychic in Binhai City's Photography Department. At his current energy level, he can reach level 45, so his combat power cannot be weak.

Jian Qing looked at the file, thought for a moment, took out her cell phone, made a call, and asked:

"Has the location of target No. 25 been confirmed?"

"Not yet, we're looking for it." The reconnaissance team replied.

"How many places have you searched?"

"We've already found No. 25's address and the headquarters of the Levi Mercenary Group. Now we're going to the hotel and training ground he frequents." The reconnaissance team replied.

Out of 37 people, 34 have confirmed their positions, leaving only the last 3.

After all, these 37 people are all high-level psychics, so it is normal for them to disappear occasionally.

One of the reasons why the reconnaissance team was able to confirm the locations of 34 targets so quickly was because they used the mobile phone positioning function.

In this day and age, mobile phones are an indispensable tool.

It is not difficult to find someone's whereabouts as long as the mobile phone signal is not deliberately blocked.

"Where's the cell phone signal? Can we still get it?" Jian Qing asked again.

"I checked the cell phone signal. The last time the 25th's cell phone signal appeared was at his address."

"Where's the time?"

"The time was 11:55 last night."

This time is very delicate. The mobile phone signal is not recorded every second, which means that the mobile phone signal has not been updated since 11:55 last night.

In other words, it is possible that the signal disappeared at 12 o'clock last night.

If this guess is correct, then Ke Yiming should have been teleported into the Abyss Battlefield at 12 o'clock last night and thus lost his cell phone signal.

Jian Qing's eyes fixed, and she gave the order: "Activate the third-level authority, control the people around No. 25 Ke Yiming, and find out his whereabouts. If you can't find him, investigate his identity and background. You are allowed to use mental abilities."

"Yes!" The reconnaissance team received the order and adjusted the mission strategy.

Jian Qing hung up the phone, quickly typed out a report, printed it out, and took it to the Southern Theater Command Headquarters to meet Li Guining.

According to regulations, psychic abilities are not allowed to be used on ordinary citizens unless there are special reasons.

Of course, in some cases, emergency strategies can be implemented, but a report needs to be filed afterwards.

Jian Qing now took the report to Li Guining for his signature and explained her guess.

……

at the same time.

On the Quel'dorei continent.

The four members of Lu Heng's team and the elf team led by Terris have left the Ice Rift and are on their way back to Kolos City.

On the way back to Kolos, Tyrese received a message from Fiona.

"I just received news that the other recruits you were looking for have been found."

"Have you found other recruits?" Lu Heng looked surprised.

Su Muyu and others also stopped and gathered around, waiting to hear what was to be said next.

Tyrese continued, "Yes, we found the other recruiter. He is a human named Ke Yiming. After the queen mentioned your name, he said he knew you."

Lu Heng was a little surprised when he heard the name.

But after thinking about it for a while, I found that it made sense.

Ke Yiming is indeed a first-tier psychic, and he is in Binhai City.

In other words, he is most likely the one being called up.

……

The group quickened their journey and returned to Kolos City in the evening of the same day.

The Elf Queen arranged a dinner to entertain the elven warriors who were out on missions, and also invited the human recruits in the city to the banquet.

Before dinner started, Lu Heng met Ke Yiming in the palace area.

Ke Yiming took the initiative to greet him: "I didn't expect to see you here."

Lu Heng looked him up and down and said, "I didn't expect you to be a recruiter."

Ke Yiming smiled and replied: "I didn't expect to enter the same abyss battlefield with you. After experiencing this abyss battlefield, do I have a chance to join your team?"

He had asked this question in a joking manner the last time they met at Quenching Castle.

Lu Heng did not respond to his question, but asked: "Long Wei sent out a countdown to recruit, but there has been no response. Didn't you see it?"

Ke Yiming nodded and replied: "I saw this. My recruitment countdown is indeed the same as Long Weifa's."

Lu Heng then asked: "Then why didn't you respond?"

Ke Yiming spread his hands and replied: "Although Longwei has a military background, it is also a mercenary group. I am a senior mercenary of the Liwei Mercenary Group and I have shares. It is not convenient for me to contact the Longwei Mercenary Group. Besides, this kind of recruitment does not require a response, right?"

This reason is barely acceptable.

Lu Heng looked back at Su Muyu and saw her shaking her head.

The shaking of the head meant that Ke Yiming's footprints did not match the footprints in the Frost Bone Dragon's treasure cave.

After Lu Heng finished talking with Ke Yiming, he walked back to the team members.

Su Muyu spoke first: "Should the previous analysis be overturned?"

Previously, when he was in the Frost Bone Dragon's Treasure Cave, he had analyzed and determined that in addition to the four people in his team, there were also Clyde Savile and a team of five people in this recruitment.

But now there is another person named Ke Yiming.

Lu Heng was not sure, and said after thinking: "Maybe the other team is not five people, but four people like us."
