Revelation of the Way of Heaven

Chapter 286 Intelligence

"Hey, Lao Kong, have you set up all the traps over there?" Just as Qin Xiaochuan stepped into the outer tent area of ​​the camp, a voice suddenly called out to him from behind.

Qin Xiaochuan turned his head and recognized Xiang Hui, who was in charge of using drones to survey the terrain. Xiang Hui was walking over from behind with the drone, seemingly having just finished his mission and preparing to return to report. Qin Xiaochuan asked, "Alright, how's it going on your end? Have you found anything unusual?"

Xiang Hui shook his head and said, "No, the island is completely shrouded in fog. Even if a drone flies in, it can't see anything."

Qin Xiaochuan then took the opportunity to ask, "Speaking of which, this place is so strange, and we only have about twenty people. Won't our strength be a bit weak?"

"Of course it's not just us..." Xiang Hui blurted out, but then realized something and quickly changed the subject, saying, "Don't worry, the higher-ups didn't send us here to die, but to make a great contribution." With that, he patted Qin Xiaochuan on the shoulder and walked alone toward the command tent.

Qin Xiaochuan looked around and found that everyone around him was busy with their own things and no one cared about his presence. So he followed Xiang Hui from a distance and slowly moved towards the command tent.

When they were about twenty meters away from the command tent, Qin Xiaochuan hesitated.

Within this range, he could use his mental space to investigate everything happening inside the command tent. However, he knew that there was likely a master inside, perhaps a spiritualist skilled in mental power. His spying might alert the enemy. But if he didn't do that, given his current role, he couldn't get close to the command tent and thus wouldn't be able to obtain crucial information.

"Fine, I guess I'll just have to take the gamble." Qin Xiaochuan gritted his teeth and finally unleashed his mental space, instantly covering the entire command tent.

Just as Qin Xiaochuan had expected, the person in charge of the command tent was indeed a diamond-level demon hunter with a spiritual power level of 8. Fortunately, the other party did not react to his mental detection, which put Qin Xiaochuan at ease.

In Lao Kong's memory, this diamond-level demon hunter was the leader of this operation. Others usually called him Team Leader Zhong. At this moment, Team Leader Zhong was sitting on a green military chair, with a thick cigar in his mouth, listening to Xiang Hui report on the surrounding reconnaissance situation.

After listening, Team Leader Zhong nodded and said, "By the way, keep an eye on setting up traps nearby as well. This is crucial to our operation and we must ensure that those vampires never return."

Xiang Hui nodded and said, "I understand, but the brothers below have some concerns."

"What are you worried about?" Team Leader Zhong took a deep drag on his cigar, squinted, and looked at Xiang Hui through the rising smoke.

"They don't know much about the specifics of this operation. This island is too strange; they're afraid..." Xiang Hui hesitated for a moment before continuing, "They're afraid of danger."

"They'll understand when the time comes," Team Leader Zhong said nonchalantly, waving his cigar before staring at Xiang Hui and asking, "Do you share these concerns?"

"I have no worries. I'll do whatever you say, Team Leader Zhong. I believe that as long as I work diligently under your guidance, you will definitely not treat me unfairly," Xiang Hui said resolutely.

Team Leader Zhong nodded in satisfaction and said, "Actually, it doesn't matter if I tell you. After all, I still need your help with a lot of things. Once you understand the specific plan, you'll be able to handle things even better."

"I will definitely not let you down, Team Leader Zhong," Xiang Hui said earnestly.

"As you know, we are actually just the vanguard of this operation, but what you don't know is that Deputy Leader Qian will lead a group of people to personally oversee the operation later." Team Leader Zhong's expression was solemn, clearly showing that he attached great importance to this matter.

"Huh? The deputy leader actually led the team on a mission personally. I've never heard of such a thing before." Xiang Hui's face was filled with shock.

"You're right, so you know how important this mission is. We absolutely cannot afford to make any mistakes." Team Leader Zhong took another deep drag on his cigar.

"But how can we be sure that the vampires will definitely run into the trap we set?" Xiang Hui raised another question.

"Most people have some misconceptions about vampires, thinking that they hunt alone. In fact, vampires are called blood witches, and they are part of a tightly organized organization. When Deputy Leader Qian comes here this time, he will bring an important figure from this organization. With this person as a hostage, the vampires on this island will definitely risk their lives to come and rescue him," Team Leader Zhong said confidently.

"I see. Now I know how to set up a better trap," Xiang Hui said knowingly.

"Okay, go ahead. Also, arrange the patrol and guard duties for tonight." Team Leader Zhong waved his hand.

"Okay." Xiang Hui nodded and left the command tent. Qin Xiaochuan also put away his mental space at this time.

"It seems the important person they're talking about is probably Zhu Yihu," Qin Xiaochuan analyzed to himself. "I need to quickly tell Han Kexin this information."

"Hey, isn't this Old Kong?" Just as Qin Xiaochuan was thinking, someone suddenly patted him on the shoulder.

Qin Xiaochuan turned around and saw a woman in her thirties, who was quite charming. Qin Xiaochuan had seen her in Lao Kong's memory, but he did not know her name.

"Oh, you're here too." Qin Xiaochuan could only awkwardly and vaguely greet him.

"Of course I'm here. I'm in charge of setting up the tents. Where else would I be? But you, shouldn't you be outside setting up traps today? What are you doing here?" The woman looked at him affectionately, making Qin Xiaochuan realize that Lao Kong and the woman in front of him had an unusual relationship.

This is bad. He originally planned to retreat immediately, but he ran into this person at this moment and accidentally gave himself away.

"Oh, I've completed my mission. I came here to report, and now I'm going to take a look around the area." Qin Xiaochuan could only give a vague reply before turning and walking out of the camp.

However, the woman did not leave. Instead, she followed closely behind, saying meaningfully, "Did you come here just to report on your mission?"

"Otherwise what?" Qin Xiaochuan asked.

"You rascal, do you really have to make me spell it out?" The woman suddenly pinched Qin Xiaochuan's arm, making him tense up. "Don't you have any intention of coming to see me?" the woman asked coquettishly.

Qin Xiaochuan was taken aback, then instantly understood what was going on, but dared not reply, and could only give an awkward smile.
