The Healer More Powerful Than A Warrior

Chapter 422: Liang Houyun's Arrival


Lin Ye knew that the Alliance would definitely start taking action soon.

After all, the importance of the Deep City settlement is undeniable in the entire human world. A mega-settlement able to accommodate tens of millions of people cannot afford any mishaps.

But in fact, Tao Meng doesn't have much information.

The only thing certain is that this guy is responsible for activating an Anomalous Spatial Rift called the 'Blood River'.

And according to the information provided by Tao Meng, this is just one out of hundreds of Anomalous Spatial Rifts.

That is to say, the Abyss Demon God plans to open hundreds of Anomalous Spatial Rifts simultaneously to besiege the Deep City.

The scale of such a riot is beyond what the defense forces of a single Deep City could handle. Even if the Alliance deployed all its troops in the Deep City, it would be useless.

At that time, resolving all these Anomalous Spatial Rifts in a short period was simply impossible.

If humans had this ability, these Anomalous Spatial Rifts wouldn't still exist in the human world.

These Anomalous Spatial Rifts, which have not yet been closed by human Professionals, are all tough problems, and the average Professional would turn around and leave upon encountering them.

After all, those easy to conquer have already been dealt with by elder Professionals. Why would they still be left here waiting for future generations to handle?

"If we could find more 'keys' like Tao Meng, it would be the fastest solution…"

Lin Ye mused as he walked.

However, this is not a simple task either. Finding a specific few hundred people among the tens of millions of Deep City residents is like finding a needle in a haystack.

Moreover, how can we be sure that these hundreds of people are all in Deep City?

If the scope is expanded to the whole world, it becomes even more daunting. This is nearly an impossible task.

Presumably, even now, the Alliance is in a mess, unable to find a breakthrough.

As far as Lin Ye knew, the Demon Hunting Army had a method to assess the probability of a Professional being a demon. They used this method to plan their actions.

But the troublesome part now is that even if you catch a demon with 100% certainty, it doesn't mean this demon is a 'key'.

Moreover, large-scale demon capture is likely to alert the Demon God, prompting an early execution of their plans.

This is definitely not what the Alliance wants to see.

"Looks like I'll have to work hard for a while…"

Lin Ye looked up at the sky, which was already dawning, and with the Demon Eye's enhancement, Lin Ye had the simplest and most direct method to gain a rough idea at a glance.

Although not 100% accurate, according to Tao Meng's information, during the time he underwent brain parasitism, it was not just the followers of the Flesh and Blood Demon God.

There were even followers of Demon Gods of Birth and Natural Disasters.

In other words, not all people with parasitized brains are 'keys,' but all 'keys' have definitely been parasitized!

Considering that ordinary demons don't need brain parasitism, as long as one can find demons with parasitized brains, they are most likely 'keys.'

Even if they are not 'keys,' they are definitely not ordinary demons.

Once he understood this, Lin Ye suddenly felt enlightened.

Finding every single 'key' is unrealistic, but as long as some can be identified, the pressure can be greatly reduced.

"Although Elder Liu doesn't have much life left, according to the timeline of the previous life, he has at least another year of life."

Lin Ye mused.

Now the Demon Gods are eager to act, simply because they don't want to give Lin Ye this additional year of time.

With Liu Tianyuan's protection, as long as Lin Ye doesn't seek death, he truly won't die.

But as soon as Liu Tianyuan falls, the Demon Gods will have more means to deal with Lin Ye, and some methods they previously dared not use could also be employed.

The purpose of the Demon Gods' actions this time is simply to force Liu Tianyuan to act, and whether exhausting him or killing Lin Ye amid chaos, it's worth it for them.

Therefore, even for his own sake, Lin Ye must reduce the impact of the Demon Gods' actions as much as possible.

But before that, Lin Ye still needed some help.

The specific situation still depends on feedback from the Alliance. If the Alliance has a better solution, then Lin Ye naturally doesn't need to do this himself.

Isn't it better to spend the saved time leveling up?

Judging the Alliance's actions to decide his next move, Lin Ye simply returned to the hotel to rest.

After a nap, Lin Ye was awakened by his phone.

When he checked, he saw it was a call from Liang Houyun.

"Hello? What's the matter." Lin Ye said irritably as he picked up the phone.

"I'm downstairs at the hotel. Should I come up, or do you want to come down? But I'd rather come up and see what the most luxurious suite in Deep City, as the legend says, looks like. I hope you're sensible and don't make me beg on my knees!"

Liang Houyun's roguish voice sounded on the phone, as undisciplined as ever.

It's hard to imagine that this guy is old enough to be Lin Ye's father, yet he still talks about kneeling in front of Lin Ye.

But Lin Ye knew his character well.

He was someone who did everything on a whim, but his nature was more righteous and strong than anyone else. Otherwise, Lin Ye wouldn't have become lifelong friends with him in his previous life.

"Come up, don't make a fool of yourself down there!" Lin Ye replied irritably.

"Great! You all heard him; Lin Ye told me to come up!"

Liang Houyun's cheer came through the phone, and Lin Ye rolled his eyes, hanging up directly, unable to stand the guy's antics.

Shortly, with the hotel staff accompanying him, Liang Houyun came up to the suite.

Upon entering, he was amazed and scolded Lin Ye for being excessively extravagant, living alone in such a large luxurious suite.

"Alright, what did you want to talk about?" Lin Ye motioned for Liang Houyun to talk in the small tea room next to him.

He knew this guy must have something important to discuss; otherwise, he wouldn't have come all the way here.

"Indeed, I have something important to discuss."

Hearing this, Liang Houyun put on a serious face, shedding his casual demeanor.

"Speak then!"

Lin Ye poured a cup of tea and pushed it in front of Liang Houyun.

And Liang Houyun said, "I wanted to come find you a while ago, but I couldn't locate you. I thought you had already been attacked."

Lin Ye's mouth twitched.

Liang Houyun continued, "Do you know Zhao Tianci?"
