The Last Commander of the Red Alert

Soon, an ordinary-looking female Ghost Clan member walked over. Various emotions like anticipation, fear, and nervousness could be seen on her face, which instantly intrigued Moyu.

The Ghost Master usually kept a high profile and rarely interacted with ordinary Ghost Clan members. The performance of this female Ghost Clan member greatly satisfied Moyu's vanity.

"Greetings... to Ghost Master." The female Ghost Clan member stammered nervously.

Ghost Clan members didn't kneel or bow. Even when meeting higher-ranking Ghost Clan members, a simple bow of the head was enough.

"Tell me, what secret information do you have for me? If it's useful, I can reward you. If you're deceiving me..."

A cold aura emanated from her, intensifying the fear in the female Ghost Clan member.

"I... I would never deceive Ghost Master... Ghost Master, the secret I have to share is..."

Just then, the female Ghost Clan member suddenly looked up, a hint of cunning on her face. Moyu's heart raced, and she instinctively tried to protect himself, but it was already too late.

What does it feel like to be attacked by an eighth-order pinnacle expert? Moyu could confirm that after a moment of agony, there was nothing.

Indeed, this female Ghost Clan member was not a genuine Ghost Clan member; she was the hidden Number Three Spy!

With Number One Spy taking over as the city lord, it was only natural that Number Three Spy wouldn't remain idle. After discussing with Number One Spy, they decided to infiltrate the Ghost Clan to gather intelligence.

Since it was an undercover mission, it was best to assume a high-ranking Ghost Clan identity. After killing Moyu, the first thing Number Three Spy did was obliterate all nearby Ghost Clan members who witnessed the scene!

Number Three Spy produced a small nuclear bomb and detonated it on the spot.

Boom!

The execution of this plan was as smooth as flowing water, as if rehearsed multiple times.

Before the Ghost Clan could engage in close combat with the Human Soldiers, an explosion erupted from behind them.

In that instant, the charging Ghost Clan forces were baffled. What was happening?

The Ghost Clan leader who was commanding from a distance had a change in expression. The location of the explosion seemed to be where Ghost Master was. Why did it explode there?

"Moyu!" Ah Gou, who was fighting Eastern Emperor, saw the explosion below and, despite being injured by Eastern Emperor, rushed back, his expression tense.

Cough cough.

Suddenly, a light cough sounded. Ah Gou's face lit up, and amidst the smoke and dust, he found Moyu in tattered clothes.

Of course, he had no way of knowing that the Moyu before him had already been replaced.

"Are you alright, my lord?" Ah Gou asked anxiously.

"I'm fine. It seems that Humans dared to send suicide attackers. They were careless." Number Three Spy's disguise was flawless.

"My lord, the HumansCity Lord-level expert up there, I can't defeat him. We should leave quickly," Ah Gou scratched his head.

"Even if we leave, I need the person in charge here to explain to me. How could they not inform me about the presence of a Late Eighth Order expert? Idiots!"

Eastern Emperor didn't pursue them. Such an action would be too obvious. Instead, he flew over the Ghost Clan army, firing at will and eliminating a large number of Ghost Clan soldiers.

The terror an unrestrained Late Eighth Order expert could unleash was vividly demonstrated by Eastern Emperor. In just a short span, the Ghost Clan army lost tens of thousands of soldiers. Not even Ghost Master's armor could withstand the assault.

The Ghost Clan leader had no choice but to order a retreat. The attack had failed once again. What troubled him most was that Ghost Master Moyu had also come to hold him accountable.

Facing Ghost Master, even though he was the Ghost Clan leader, he felt somewhat guilty. After all, it was his intelligence failure that nearly caused Ghost Master's demise.

Every Ghost Master was a treasure to the Ghost Clan. Even losing one would cause them heartache.

"Ling Wei!" A voice full of anger resonated, making the Ghost Clan leader shudder.

"Ghost Master, this intelligence failure is my responsibility. I'm willing to compensate." Ling Wei immediately sounded timid.

Ignoring the opponent's strength and status, which surpassed his own, just this major blunder alone wasn't something easily forgivable.

The crux of the matter was Ghost Master. If she chose to let it go, the incident would be insignificant. But if she continued to pursue it, he was in trouble.

The punishments within the Ghost Clan were harsh!

Number Three Spy came here not for compensation, of course. As a Ghost Master, she couldn't afford to suffer a setback and not take action to rectify the situation, as that would arouse suspicion.

"Is that so? What kind of compensation?" Ling Wei felt a glimmer of hope. It seemed that Ghost Master was open to receiving compensation without pursuing the matter further.

In reality, Number Three Spy didn't know what valuable possessions the Ghost Clan had, so she shifted the responsibility back to Ling Wei.

"I can transfer my three-day entry quota to the Sacred Ground to Ghost Master." As Ling Wei spoke, his discomfort was evident.

Number Three Spy paused. What was the Sacred Ground?

But seeing Ling Wei's and the nearby giant's expressions, it seemed like a highly valued location for the Ghost Clan.

"Not enough," Number Three Spy said calmly.

As a spy, she was skilled in negotiation tactics. Although Sacred Ground time was valuable, compared to a Ghost Master's life, it paled in comparison.

Ling Wei wasn't surprised. After all, the other party was Ghost Master, and while Sacred Ground time was indeed tempting, he knew that Ghost Master had several days allotted each month, which was entirely different from his situation.

Ling Wei offered several items that seemed valuable, and as Number Three Spy felt she had squeezed enough concessions from him, she relented.

Before leaving, she advised Ling Wei not to speak of today's events to anyone.

Ling Wei subconsciously thought that Moyu didn't want anyone to know about her embarrassing situation, and he readily agreed. This was a good thing for him; it might even help him establish a connection with Moyu and prove beneficial.

"Ah Gou, where can I stay?"

Number Three Spy easily obtained the name of the giant, along with the name of her own disguise, from him. Her excuse was that the explosion had caused her temporary amnesia, which was a perfect reason! (To be continued...)
