#152 - Chapter 152 The Innocent Holy Envoy
"If we don't achieve substantial results in the short term, our branch will be collectively eliminated," Saint Envoy Number One replied.
"Tell me more about your plan," Dongfang Chen said.
"The first step of the plan is to drive the zombies to surround the resettlement camps, causing panic. This way, we can legitimately contact the military region and request their support," Saint Envoy Number One said.
"With just a few of you, I'm afraid you can't make such a big commotion, right?"
"A few of us certainly can't. As far as I know, basically every resettlement camp has at least one Saint Envoy lurking or in control, overtly or covertly. With the Saint Child coming forward, we can coordinate the execution of this matter uniformly across all the resettlement camps," Saint Envoy Number One explained.
Zongzhen Yue was very shocked to hear this. The Red-Clad Sect's influence is not small.
"So, the resettlement camps sending people to besiege the military headquarters was also manipulated by you?" Zongzhen Yue interjected.
"That's right. We spread some news to the resettlement camps, saying that the Southeast Military Region's forces are limited, and if everyone doesn't fight for it, they might not even get leftovers."
"If the military region remains unmoved, what can you do?" Dongfang Chen asked.
"If the military region doesn't send troops, then the resettlement camps will definitely be dissatisfied and lose confidence in the military. In that case, we can take this opportunity to intensify the conflict between the two, and then secretly control these resettlement camps."
"So, the subsequent autonomy of many resettlement camps was the result of your manipulation?" Dongfang Chen asked.
"That's right."
"If the military region stations troops in each resettlement camp, what would you do then?" Dongfang Chen asked hypothetically.
"If the military sends troops, that would be even better. In that case, the military region will inevitably have depleted forces, creating an opportunity for us to besiege the headquarters. Moreover, the soldiers dispersed to each resettlement camp will inevitably be limited in number, and we can defeat them one by one."
"What is your ultimate goal?" Dongfang Chen asked.
"The ultimate goal should be to completely control China," Saint Envoy Number One replied.
"Naive idea!" Dongfang Chen laughed.
"Do you have anything else to say?" Dongfang Chen asked.
"No," the Saint Envoy replied.
Dongfang Chen turned to leave.
"Wait," the Saint Envoy said hastily.
"What? Do you have anything to add?" Dongfang Chen turned back and asked.
"That medicine..." the Saint Envoy reminded him.
"I really don't know how someone as naive as you became a Saint Envoy!" Dongfang Chen mocked.
After saying that, he walked out.
"Ah! You tricked me!" the Saint Envoy shouted inside.
"Send him on his way!" Zongzhen Yue said to the soldiers beside him.
"Commander Zong, now it seems that Zhai Yuze and Pang Gaoxuan of the Suiyang Resettlement Camp are undoubtedly members of the Red-Clad Sect. Hurry up and arrest them," Dongfang Chen suggested.
"Those two have already been taken into custody. They can't escape," Commander Zong replied.
Dongfang Chen nodded and walked into interrogation room number two.
"Have you thought about it? You have ten seconds to choose." Dongfang Chen pressed the stopwatch directly.
"Hmph! You want to divide us? Save your breath!" Saint Envoy Number Two was very stubborn.
Hearing this, Dongfang Chen knew that there was no point in interrogating him, so he put down the stopwatch.
"I didn't realize you were such a good person, giving such a good opportunity to Number Three."
Saint Envoy Number Two ignored him.
"Actually, it doesn't matter whether you speak or not. The person in room number one has already said everything I wanted to know. Show him the confession," Dongfang Chen said.
The soldier next to him glanced at Zongzhen Yue, who nodded in agreement.
The soldier stepped forward and placed the confession in front of the Saint Envoy.
Since the Saint Envoy's arms had been broken, the soldier could only turn the pages for him one by one.
After Saint Envoy Number Two finished reading, he silently closed his eyes.
"See that? In your opinion, perhaps this is a means of dividing you one by one. But in my opinion, you are just a bunch of clowns."
"Although you no longer have the first choice, I can give you an extra opportunity, a chance to die quickly. It depends on whether you cherish it or not."
"I only have one question. Which resettlement camp do you come from?" Dongfang Chen asked.
Number Two didn't answer.
"Since that's the case, then I can't help you. Good luck to you!" Dongfang Chen said.
"Inject this potion into him," Dongfang Chen took out the blue potion from his pocket and handed it to the soldier.
"Oh, right, remember to record the process. I need to take a backup copy with me. Sometimes, if I don't show some evidence, others will think that my potion is just a bluff," Dongfang Chen smiled.
The soldier clearly shivered after hearing this.
This young man in front of him is really ruthless.
Dongfang Chen didn't stay any longer and walked directly into interrogation room number three.
"Congratulations, Number Two chose not to speak. You have an opportunity to choose," Dongfang Chen said to Saint Envoy Number Three.
"What did Number One say?" Saint Envoy Number Three asked.
"He was very wise and confessed everything," Dongfang Chen replied.
"So, I only have one way to die?" Saint Envoy Number Three asked.
