Under Han Zhan's staunch argument.

Eventually, Lin Jingxuan and Wei Qing agreed to his plan.

This plan must be kept secret, even Li Lingzhen, Xia Youwei, and Gongyang Jin don't know about it.

It's not about worrying they would leak the secret, but rather fearing their concern might lead to chaos.

Meanwhile, to ensure they could mature quickly and handle things independently, Lin Jingxuan assigned them new roles.

Li Lingzhen, an SSS-level contracted spirit with the Shennong Cauldron, is skilled in healing, a much-needed talent. She directly became the top healer in the entire North County, responsible for large-scale treatment of critically ill patients.

Xia Youwei, an SSS-level contracted spirit with the Fu Xi Zither, combines offense and defense. Coupled with her Ancient Residue Sun and millions of battle spirits, she is more suited to become a female commander who commands all spirits.

Thus, Lin Jingxuan gave her the Commander's Seal and let Xia Youwei stay by his side to learn and hone her capabilities, mastering the Path of Commanding Soldiers as soon as possible.

For Gongyang Jin, an SSS-level contracted spirit with the Xuanyuan Sword, the arrangement was simpler. Competing in martial strength with Wei Qing every day was the best way to hone her skills.

Do not underestimate Wei Qing; as he said himself, even though he lost an arm, his overall strength not only didn't decline after that battle, but actually improved.

This precisely proves what teacher Li Shutong often said: Our kind, the martial artists, must hone themselves between life and death to keep moving forward.

With everyone appropriately arranged, Han Zhan and his group began collecting all information regarding Titan City and planning methods to infiltrate Titan City without anyone noticing, all of which were entrusted to Lin Jingxuan.

A week passed just like that.

After gaining a comprehensive understanding of Titan City, Han Zhan finally found a way to enter it.

"According to the latest information gathered from the Eighth War Zone, there will soon be a batch of Great Xia's Awakened slaves being transported to Titan City. Such large-scale transport only happens once a year in Titan City."

Lin Jingxuan paused here, hesitant to continue.

"If there's something to say, don't hold back, Second Brother," Han Zhan noticed the difficulty on Lin Jingxuan's face and spoke up.

"The method of entry is not the problem, but the fate of those entering Titan City is certain death."

"Because of this reason, Titan City's selection criteria aren't stringent."

It's understandable; once inside, they will be strictly controlled and eventually lose their lives. Even if spies from other organizations infiltrate this way, it'll have no effect.

If it was just ordinary spies, it would be tolerable, since sacrifices are inevitable. But this time, it is Han Zhan who plans to infiltrate Titan City.

The new spiritual leader of North County.

If he were to die in Titan City, it would deal an unimaginable blow to Great Xia. This is why Lin Jingxuan hesitated.

"Where are these slaves assigned after entering Titan City?"

"I don't know."

"How does Can Shang Company control these slaves?"

"I don't know."

"Is there really no one who has walked out of Titan City alive?"

"Truly none," Lin Jingxuan answered honestly.

"Then I will be the first," Han Zhan said without hesitation.

His mind was set; the conversation ended.

Seeing he couldn't dissuade him, Lin Jingxuan said nothing further; everyone has their own path, and this was his own choice.

The path of the strong is never smooth sailing.

Moreover, Han Zhan possesses the means of Black Hole Nihility. It's impossible for Titan City to always use the Space Stabilizer to stabilize the entire space. If they did, their ships wouldn't be able to operate normally.

The risks of Han Zhan traveling to Titan City are significant, but there is still a chance.

The two of them discussed some details, and then Han Zhan, under the guidance of his Eighth Brother Wu, successfully infiltrated the slave group of Can Shang Company through complex relationships.

Now, Han Zhan has transformed into the appearance of a young, unfamiliar man.

This is also the means of his Eighth Brother, an expert in espionage. Changing appearances is not difficult for them.

But at the same time, Wu also warned Han Zhan not to let the people of Can Shang Technology collect his blood.

Because once blood tests are performed, his identity could no longer be concealed.

The mission codename: Raven.

This name was Han Zhan's idea. In legend, the raven is a bird that roams the shores of the Yellow Springs River.

Just like Han Zhan's mission, walking the edge of death, one misstep could mean an end in the Yellow Springs River.

Indeed, it fits.

...

On the former Great Xia territory, now under Can Shang Company's jurisdiction, in Green Sea City.

It was already packed with people, all Awakened from Great Xia who were transported from various cities.

Once, whether it was going to the frontlines to become Combat Spirit Contract Masters, or serving as City Guardians for the people at the rear, they were the pride of Great Xia.

But after Great Xia's fall, they all became prisoners, not even comparable to common civilians.

Because they are Awakened, which signifies risk, risk that means being uncontrollable.

No power dares to let them continue with their previous roles.

Coinciding with Can Shang Company's annual slave intake day for Titan City, all the cities were happy to deliver them altogether here, awaiting the transport ship from Can Shang Technology to send them all to Titan City.

"Hey, newcomer?"

While Han Zhan was looking around, someone tapped his shoulder. A youthful-looking young man approached.

"When we board the transport ship later, follow me from behind," the young man said, nodding his head backward, "See those people behind me? They all stick with me. Trust me; you won't go wrong."

"Why should I trust you?" Han Zhan looked up at him, puzzled, "No one can escape death in Titan City. Does it matter who you follow?"

At this point, Han Zhan showed no strong survival desire, which suited the mentality of most slaves.

Not causing trouble, not being conspicuous, not attracting attention.

"You don't understand, even if it's death, there's a comfortable way to die and a painful way. Which would you choose?"

"I've heard that in Titan City, Can Shang Company performs various experiments on Spirit Contract Masters and Contracted Spirits, the process being excruciating. Some people were tortured alive for more than a year before finally dying. Entering Titan City, death might be a relief."

Staring at the unabashed young man, Han Zhan was a bit surprised.

He had previously confirmed repeatedly with Lin Jingxuan that no one could leave Titan City alive. How could this young man seem to know everything?

Han Zhan was curious.

So, he followed up on the young man's words: "Do you have a way?"

"Of course, I told you, just follow me, and you won't go wrong. Better a quick death than a long, painful life," he promised them a swift end.

It was a new perspective.

Han Zhan thought for a moment, he didn't refuse. He wanted to see what methods the other party might have.

"Almost forgot to introduce myself, I'm Wang Chunyu, captain of the first squad of City Guardians in Green Sea City, Great Xia."

Wang Chunyu? Who would have such a name? Han Zhan gave him another look. "I am Raven."
