As the teleportation messages stopped flooding in, the view before me slowly returned to normal.

Lu Heng opened his eyes, already back in the training room of Qionghua Tianshulu District, with Su Muyu and the others beside him.

Just after returning, his phone vibrated.

Lu Heng took out his phone to find more than a dozen messages, sent days ago but only received now, along with an incoming call.

He answered the call, and Jian Qing’s voice came through: "Back already?"

Actually, this question was somewhat redundant; the war zone had long stationed people at Qionghua Tianshulu District, and as soon as Lu Heng and the others returned, the news would be relayed back.

Su Muyu had immediately sensed someone scanning the area with a perception skill, a situation that had happened before, so there was nothing strange about it.

Lu Heng directly asked: "You know Ke Yiming’s identity now, right?"

Jian Qing answered confidently: "Confirmed. Capture or kill?"

"Capture him, but let him escape." Lu Heng gave a surprising answer.

Though Jian Qing didn’t understand the reason, she knew there must be a purpose behind this order, so she agreed immediately: "Okay, I’ll call back once it’s done."

Before hanging up, gunshots were already coming from the phone.

...

Fifteen kilometers away, at a base of the Liwei Mercenary Group, a gunfight broke out.

Half a minute ago, Ke Yiming had just returned, immediately moving to the bedside, peeking through the curtains to check outside.

He’s not a Perceiver; the perceiver in his team was killed by him a few minutes ago, so now he could only use his eyes to observe the environment.

Before returning, he had already mentally prepared, knowing he was surrounded, but unaware of what would happen.

It wasn’t until a sniper bullet pierced through the window glass and skimmed past him that he reacted, jumping out the window at once, dodging left and right in the hail of bullets, taking two hits before breaking through the encirclement and hiding in the night.

He was shot in the thigh and left shoulder, the bullets lodged in the bone.

He took out a hemostatic agent and pressed it against the wounds, barely stopping the bleeding, but the bullets needed to be removed promptly.

After breaking through the encirclement, he pulled out a backup satellite phone and dialed a number.

This number was the emergency contact line for the Creator Organization.

The call connected, rang three times, then was picked up, but no one spoke from the other end.

Ke Yiming spoke rapidly: "I’m 025, Abyss Battlefield lost, the other four losers are dead except for me, I’m being hunted, shot, need aid."

Still, no voice answered from the other end, and the call was directly hung up.

Ke Yiming endured the pain, moving forward in the darkness.

Three minutes later, his phone received a text message.

The message contained a single digit "1."

The digit "1" indicated the first escape route, the actual content being an address.

Only members of the Creator Organization knew this address, and even if the message were intercepted, it wouldn’t leak information.

Ke Yiming arrived at the location represented by digit "1," then boarded a car that took him to a private hospital.

As the bullet extraction surgery was underway, a Black Crow flew into the operating room, transforming into 013, its body covered in black feathers, even wearing a hood.

asked in a hoarse voice: "What’s going on?"

Ke Yiming feared the organization might suddenly finish him off, so he avoided anesthesia during surgery, his face twitching with pain, dripping with sweat.

He gasped, "The Abyss Battlefield was lost; the opponent was 028, along with the traitor 027, they teamed up."

narrowed his eyes slightly and asked, "Who is 027?"

Ke Yiming clutched the operating bed’s handles tightly, gasping angrily: "Can you let me finish the surgery first?"

coldly responded, "It’s in your best interest to answer my questions. This failure cost us four members, including your team leader’s life. Someone must be held accountable, and you’d better be nice to me."

Ke Yiming angrily hammered the operating bed, cursing: "Those four losers were no match for Lu Heng, not to mention that self-important demigod; even he was taken down by Lu Heng."

"Who is 027? Xie Shi’en?" 013 asked again.

Xie Shi’en had appeared several times beside Lu Heng, evidently joining his team, naturally drawing the attention of the Creator Organization, though they hadn’t found proof he was 027.

Ke Yiming confirmed, "That’s right, it’s him!"

fell into silent contemplation, neither asking questions nor speaking.

A moment later, he continued with his questions: "How did the other four die? Describe the process in detail."

By now, the shard was already removed, and the doctor used a staple to close the wound, the nurse began bandaging.

Ke Yiming pushed the nurse aside, saying, "Don’t wrap it."

Then he grabbed a bottle of potion and poured it over the wound.

The recovery power of the Superpower Users is far stronger than ordinary people; even if the wound scabbed over without bandages, it was okay.

Moreover, exposing the wound to air sped up healing.

After pouring the potion, he grabbed his clothes, put them on, ran his hands through his hair, and said, "The Pharaoh died in Xiling City. I stole the statues of the three Commanders from the Elf Clan, opening the seal of Xiling City, which alerted the Elf Clan..."
