Chapter 154 The Crimson Plan!
Australia.
On the towering rooftop of the shelter's headquarters, 343 was concentrating on his mission.
He is like an old monk, with his eyes closed, but using his deep soul to see what is happening around the world.
Suddenly, he caught an unusual fluctuation in his perception.
He quickly located the northwest of Australia, where there was an abandoned warehouse that seemed to hide some secret.
He looked carefully and found a strange creature that looked like a peanut in the warehouse.
The creature is slightly taller than an adult and is constructed entirely of concrete and steel, with traces of Krylon spray paint covering its surface.
Its limbs are short and delicate, which complements its unique body shape.
343 looked at the creature and couldn't help but smile. He thought, "No wonder it's called Peanut. It really looks like a little pet."
He quickly notified the Mobile Task Force stationed nearby of the discovery and asked them to go to the scene immediately for containment.
At the same time, he did not relax his global surveillance because he knew that two more containments were about to appear.
He must remain vigilant at all times to ensure that every object is contained promptly and safely.
As time passed, every minute and every second seemed to be stretched out, and an indescribable uneasiness gradually emerged in 343's heart.
This uneasiness was like a haze in the dark night, quietly eroding his soul.
"This intuition... is terrible." 343's brows were tightly furrowed, as if they could trap the dust in the air.
The last time he felt such a strong sense of uneasiness was when he was captured by a supreme deity and almost became a sliced toy.
And now, this feeling came over him again, making him shudder.
"Am I going to encounter another misfortune?" An inexplicable fear surged in 343's heart.
But then, the figure of Su Ze appeared in his mind, that powerful and mysterious existence.
He immediately felt much more at ease, as if Su Ze was the stabilizer in his heart.
However, just as he was trying to calm his inner anxiety, a terrible roar suddenly broke the silence.
Those sounds were like the roars of wild beasts, full of anger and violence.
boom!
Before he could react, another earth-shattering explosion sounded.
Immediately afterwards, cries and wails came one after another, like a symphony in hell.
343 was awakened by the sudden noise. He opened his eyes suddenly and walked quickly to the rooftop.
The scene in the distance shocked him: the tall city wall carefully built by Su Ze using the shell of the irrational root was now ablaze and filled with thick smoke.
In the firelight, the city wall seemed to be dyed red with blood, as thick as a blood-red sun.
In the light of the fire, he could vaguely see tall humanoid creatures leaping down from the city wall.
They are agile and powerful, as if they were demons crawling out of hell.
What is even more shocking is that a huge gap has appeared at the location of the originally extremely solid city gate!
That was the city gate that Su Ze built himself using the shell of the irrational root!
It is indestructible. Apart from a few people in the containment council who have the authority to open and close it, there is almost no one on Blue Planet today who can break it.
However, now, the city gate collapsed with roars and collisions, revealing a huge gap.
Seeing this scene, 343's heart sank to the bottom.
He knew that this was definitely not something that an ordinary enemy could do.
Who exactly are these humanoid creatures?
Why are they attacking here?
Could it be that they already know the secret of the shelter?
A series of questions swirled in 343's mind, but he didn't have time to think about it.
He knew that he had to act immediately and tell Su Ze and others the news.
"No, this aura of power...it...it can't be..."
343's gaze instantly focused, like a searchlight, on the gap in the city wall. There, a figure was slowly floating up, as if rising from the depths of hell.
The figure was wrapped in flames all over, the flames were so fierce that it seemed as if even the surrounding air was distorted, making it difficult to see his true face.
However, despite the intense flames, 343's eyes seemed to see through the sea of fire and recognized the figure hidden beneath the flames.
That figure... was actually the supreme divinity that had once tracked him back!
The existence that once plunged him into endless fear and despair!
"How is this possible... isn't he... in Asia?" 343's voice was filled with disbelief and fear.
He remembered clearly that the figure was clearly in some corner of Asia before. How could it suddenly appear here, under the Australian sky?
However, reason told him that this was not impossible.
The power of the supreme god had long exceeded his imagination. Perhaps the other party had been planning and playing with them from the very beginning.
"unless……"
A terrible guess suddenly flashed through 343's mind.
The figure heading to Asia might not be the other party's real body, but just a clone!
A clone to confuse them!
Once this speculation emerged, it was like opening Pandora's box, and all the mysteries were solved at this moment.
First of all, judging from the fact that the opponent was able to track me back last time relying solely on the monitoring of my memory space, my opponent’s anti-detection capability is quite strong.
When I was monitoring him just now, he should have noticed it a long time ago.
However, the other party did not show up immediately, but chose to move on, which was obviously intended to lure him into letting down his guard.
Secondly, if the other party was heading to Asia, it would be impossible for him to suddenly teleport to Australia.
The distance between them is tens of thousands of miles, and even the supreme divinity cannot make such an easy crossing.
So, there is only one possibility:
The one heading to Asia was actually a decoy of the other party, just a clone.
The real entity has been lurking in Australia, waiting for the best opportunity.
The attack was not launched until Su Ze was lured away and the city's defenses were weakened!
"I see... I understand everything..."
343's eyes were blank, as if all his strength had been drained at this moment.
He understood the other party's strategy and also understood his own powerlessness.
In front of this supreme divinity, all their efforts seemed so pale and powerless.
"What a sinister plot!"
343's voice echoed in the air, filled with shock, anger and confusion.
He stared at the blazing flames, feeling the intense power emanating from it, with indescribable fear and anger churning in his heart.
He knew very well that at the level of supreme divinity, each clone represented a consumption of the origin and was an extremely precious existence.
However, the other party actually sacrificed a clone as bait. The intention behind this must be extraordinary.
"Is the gain from this attack really that great?"
343's heart was filled with doubts.
He began to think carefully, who in this city could be more valuable than an incarnation of the supreme deity?
Various possible candidates flashed through his mind quickly, but he rejected them one by one.
Until an absurd idea suddenly flashed through his mind, like a bolt of lightning across the night sky, illuminating his thoughts.
"His target is actually me?"
Once this idea came into being, it spread rapidly like wildfire and took root deeply in his heart.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this guess was most likely correct.
After all, he himself is also an incarnation of the Supreme God. Who else can be compared with him except another incarnation of the Supreme God?
This guess made him shudder and his heart was filled with fear.
"If that's true, then I'm in danger!"
A strong sense of crisis surged in 343's heart.
He understood what fate he would face if he fell into the other party's hands.
He didn't want to be captured by another supreme deity and sliced for research again. He never wanted to experience that kind of pain and despair again.
So, he no longer hesitated, and his figure flashed and disappeared on the spot.
He must escape from here as soon as possible and find a safe place to hide.
Only in this way can you avoid being discovered by the other party and save your own life.
When his figure completely disappeared from the city,
Above the city gate, the figure of Crimson Wade, who had been floating quietly all the time, finally revealed a smug smile.
He closed his eyelids slightly, and looked down at the city buildings below with an eagle-like gaze, as if he had already taken them in his pocket.
An irrepressible excitement welled up in his heart, because he knew that this once prosperous city would become the cornerstone of his rise and uprising.
He waved his hand lightly, and the group of red-eyed zombies on the city wall behind him seemed to have received some kind of order. They suddenly roared and rushed in like a tide.
……
Time goes back to an hour ago.
In fact, when Suze openly talked about the containment, Crimson Vader was not really indifferent to it all, but chose to pay attention in a more secretive way.
He did not actually return to his residence, but quietly lurked in the dark, his mind still on the turmoil.
His way of monitoring was different from others. He did not monitor directly, but through a carefully selected member of the ETO organization in the crowd.
This member, without knowing it, has become a medium for Crimson Vader to monitor the world.
This ETO member, after a meeting with Crimson Vader, was unknowingly controlled by his subconscious hypnosis.
Crimson Vader, as the incarnation of the supreme divinity, can control the thoughts of ordinary humans as easily as controlling chess pieces in his own hands.
This method allows Crimson Vader to see everything in the world without anyone knowing.
He is like an invisible observer, sitting quietly in a humble room, yet able to monitor what is happening in the world.
His wisdom and strength enable him to always maintain a detached and controlling attitude in this complex and ever-changing world.
The moment Su Ze unveiled the mystery of the ACP-008 zombie virus, Crimson Vader's heart was like a light lit up.
The grand plan that had been brewing in his mind for a long time finally had its last piece of the puzzle, appearing before his eyes intact!
At this moment, he decisively asked the Trisolaran water droplets to attract firepower for him.
This zombie virus named ACP-008 is undoubtedly a war weapon tailor-made for him!
However, Crimson Vader is not a reckless person.
As the incarnation of the Crimson King born from negative emotions, he knows that every action must be taken carefully.
He knew that the water droplets alone would not be enough to hold Su Ze back for too long, and the so-called cooperation of the Trisolarans was nothing more than a superficial perfunctory act.
So he cleverly used the strategy of making a feint to the east and attacking in the west, deliberately creating an illusion that he was going to Asia in order to confuse the enemy.
In fact, he quietly hid his body, controlling the ETO members who had already been hypnotized by him, and carried out secret operations in order to snatch the crucial ACP-008 zombie virus.
This covert move not only successfully deceived Tomoko and 343's global surveillance, but also made everyone think that he had left Australia.
However, they never imagined that the real Crimson Vader had already approached the target silently.
What is more worth mentioning is that Crimson Vader used his special abilities as the incarnation of the Crimson King to easily sense the aura left by the wars and disasters that swept the world in the past on Blue Planet.
These auras were like a compass, guiding him to find the location of the ACP-343 zombie virus earlier than 008.
After finding it, he quickly concealed its presence and avoided the surveillance of Tomoko and 343.
After obtaining the 008 zombie virus, Crimson Vader cold-bloodedly injected it into the bodies of members of the ETO organization.
More than a thousand ETO members were directly transformed by him into red-eyed zombies with the aura of the Crimson King!
