North of Longjiang City lays a vast mountain range.

In the midst of the mountains, amid the dense forests, on the mid-levels of a tall mountain, there is a huge military base.

On the surface, it is a military base of Tamwood Country, but in reality, it is an outpost of the Dark Church!

Within the outpost, every three steps there is a guard and every five steps a sentry; and within ten miles outside the outpost, sentries are everywhere, thus making its defense impregnable.

The outpost's defenses do not stop there; around the central villa, five patrols composed of Innate Grandmasters are on rotating guard duty, each team led by a warrior with the strength of an Innate Peak Great Grandmaster.

Inside the hall of the villa, five men were gathered.

Sitting in the main seat on the sofa was an old man with a head of glossy white hair and beard.

To the left of the old man sat a middle-aged woman in a Flame Robe opened to her waist, with the old man's hand rubbing back and forth on her exposed thigh.

The middle-aged woman's gaze occasionally flicked to the old man's right side, and whenever she looked over there, she would lick her lips with her tongue.

On the right side of the old man sat a burly middle-aged man, his face covered in flesh, his body so muscled that his clothes bulged, giving the impression of a human tank. His eyes occasionally glanced toward the middle-aged woman.

Opposite the trio were two men around fifty to sixty years old.

One, clad in a Tamwood military uniform with his chest bared, stared unblinkingly at the woman's exposed skin, while the other, dressed in a dark tailcoat, kept his gaze away, focused on drinking his coffee. These two men fully represented the terms "gentleman" and "rough soldier."

"Ka Lasi, have people been dispatched to Wu Yati?" the old man looked up at the rough soldier opposite him and asked in a deep voice.

The rough soldier Ka Lasi nodded, saying casually, "They've been sent, selected from three generations for their absolute loyalty to the great Lord Lucifer."

"Good, if we can open the doors to the Flame Dragon Kingdom this time, it will be a milestone in the history of the Dark Church's development. That mysterious and powerful eastern country has never been infiltrated by any sect or power. If it weren't for the young Family Head of the Jiang Family of Jincheng bumping into Wu Yati, we probably wouldn't have had such an opportunity!"

With a sigh, the old man gave the woman's leg a hard slap.

Slap!

A crisp sound rang out, and the woman gave the old man a displeased look: "Si Ta'er, are you trying to kill me?

"Haha, I wouldn't dare. Here, let me rub it for you," the old man Si Ta'er said with a grin as he massaged the woman's leg.

She rolled her eyes at him again and turned to the human tank: "Ao Li'er, has the dead Gene Warrior been found?"

Ao Li'er shook his head slightly: "No, the person who acted was decisive. It should have been a kill with a single strike, and they took the body away before it even hit the ground!"

"This matter has caused dissatisfaction among the rats from below; they haven't come up for a change of guard in the past few days!" The man in a tailcoat quietly set down his coffee and spoke.

"Lao Laisi, go down and tell them later that it's been three days since the Holy Court's people made their probe, and the other side should make their move now. Tell them to be on alert. If they sleep on duty again like they did yesterday, I will personally complain about them to Venerable Fa'erxi," Si Ta'er said sternly.

"Alright," the man in the tailcoat, Lao Laisi, nodded slightly.

"Alright, it's almost the wee hours. According to the rotation, Ka Lasi stays on duty, and the rest of us should get some rest!" Si Ta'er commanded, then stood up, picking up the middle-aged woman, and said with a lecherous grin, "My dear Kali Nina, let's go rest!"

"You old rascal!" Kali Nina rolled her eyes at Si Ta'er, then draped herself over his shoulder and gave Ao Li'er a meaningful look.

Ao Li'er gave a slight nod.

Upstairs went Si Ta'er, carrying Kali Nina, while Lao Laisi headed toward the kitchen. Ka Lasi and Ao Li'er remained seated on the sofa.

"Ao Li'er, how does it feel to always eat that old guy's leftovers? Can you even feed Kali Nina?" Kali Si teased Ao Li'er with a playful look.

With a heavy face, Ao Li'er looked up at Kali Si and a fierce expression crossed his flesh-filled face, "What? Kali Si, do you want to taste my strength?"

"No, no, no, I definitely don't want to try, but... I just wonder if you..."

Bang!

Before Kali Si could finish, a muffled sound arose, and both turned their heads toward the kitchen.

From the kitchen, Lao Laisi emerged covered in white powder.

Pat, pat, pat!

"Damn modified humans, covering me in dust!" Lao Laisi cursed under his breath as he dusted himself off.

"Another failure down there?" Kali Si frowned.

Lao Laisi gave a slight nod, "The guy's gone mad, starting to experiment on his own people below. Now, apart from those four Semi Venerables, there are hardly any left. I reckon there'll be no one left for that mad old fool's experiments tonight!"

"The damn madman, if I could beat him, I'd give him a good thrashing. He had to claim that the experiment is at a critical juncture and must not be abandoned halfway. Otherwise, why would we have to be on tenterhooks every day, waiting for the Holy Court's bastards to show up at the door!" Kali Si said maliciously.

"Just wait, it will be tonight. Once he's killed all his people, he'll have to leave too. We can't just let him play with our people!" Lao Laisi said soothingly and then turned to walk toward the stairs.

"The damn madman, just don't give me a chance!" Kali Si's face was full of ferocity.

"You won't get the chance. The old madman is about to step out. With this experiment, he's trying to take that step. Once all the people down there are used up, it'll probably be the turn of those four Semi Venerables!" Ao Li'er said gravely.

"You mean to say…" Kali Si was startled and looked at Ao Li'er in amazement.

Ao Li'er nodded gently, "This is what Si Ta'er told Kali Nina. Si Ta'er saw the old madman yesterday, and he feels the guy is now stronger than him!"

"This..." Kali Si's eyes revealed a horrified look, and he fell silent.

As they spoke, outside the base in the dense jungle, nine figures moved swiftly and silently, resembling ghosts.

Dodging past sentries and secret watches, Jiang Chen and his team swiftly infiltrated the base and stopped only when they were about a hundred meters from the central villa.

"Mr. Jiang, please," Xi'er said to Jiang Chen, her face filled with apology.

The group had discussed and agreed to adopt a stealth attack approach before the operation.

And for the stealth attack, the most crucial part was not to be detected by the enemy. Among the nine of them, only Jiang Chen could remain undetected until the moment he unleashed his power.

Therefore, the responsibility for making the first strike fell upon Jiang Chen.
