Chapter 202 The Demon Team's Alternative Plan [Seeking Monthly Tickets]

The joys and sorrows of people are not the same.

Reinhardt simply found the world extremely noisy.

After listening to the clone Chu Xuan's long analysis, he thought things could develop in a stable and positive direction.

But when Zhao Zhuikong suddenly went berserk and killed Li Xiaoyao, causing the Central Continent Team and the Heavenly God Team to arrive ahead of schedule...

Reinhardt had stopped thinking.

He didn't want to think about what would happen if Zheng Zha teamed up with the Zhongzhou team. He knew he definitely couldn't team up with the Zhongzhou team anyway.

Could they be teaming up with the Celestials? But why would the Celestials accept them?

Reinhardt firmly believed that even if he became captain of the West Blue team, he would never go to the Celestial team. After all, that was a farming team...

And Nijabin and Rost, these two unfortunate brothers from the Senzhou team, must be in a similar situation.

Without an inside accomplice, why would the Celestials accept us?

"Chu Xuan, what should we do next!"

Zheng Zha's situation wasn't much better. Given the circumstances, he couldn't possibly kill Zhao Zhuikong.

The situation is bad enough already! We can't afford to cut off another arm!
Chu Xuan secretly took out a semi-transparent prism from his storage item, and it seemed that a faint white light was being absorbed into it.

He didn't mention the matter, only saying calmly, "Li Xiaoyao is already dead, and the main characters have lost a major fighting force. And if we don't rescue Zhao Ling'er, she will die when Bai Yue's remote spell causes the Demon-Sealing Tower to collapse..."

"At that point, we really won't even have a 10% chance of winning."

"On the bright side, one of Zhao Ling'er, Li Xiaoyao, and Lin Yueru was supposed to die during this trip to the Demon Locking Tower. Now that Li Xiaoyao is dead, it means that Lin Yueru and Zhao Ling'er can survive, which can be considered as completing a side quest. We can get a lot of reward points."

Chu Xuan deliberately used strange descriptions to attract the attention of the Sword Saint who was eavesdropping.

Upon hearing this, Cheng Xiao gave a wry smile and said, "How can these be the same? Colonel, I never thought you were so humorous before."

"Now, only two people know that we killed Li Xiaoyao... one is Lin Yueru, who is in our hands, and the other is the Sword Saint, who is secretly observing from outside."

Chu Xuan pushed up his glasses and said, "This means that as long as the Sword Saint doesn't inform Zhao Ling'er... the probability of this happening is no more than 30%. So we have a good chance of keeping it from Zhao Ling'er."

"Furthermore, this completely eliminates the reason for the Sword Saint to make Zhao Ling'er take the Nameless Pill. Zhao Ling'er's physical condition should be even better now."

Zheng Zha took a deep breath, suppressing his anger, and said, "So, no matter how the team battle goes, we have to save Zhao Ling'er, right?"

"Can we finally move on?" Zhao Zhui shrugged nonchalantly. "I can't wait to get out of this awful place!"

"You bastard..." Reinhardt felt his blood surging, but he couldn't afford to offend Zhao Zhuikong even more.

"Judging from their attire, I don't think this is a game. So... the biggest enemy ahead is Jiang Ming."

Chu Xuan deliberately made his words sound a little awkward: "We need to help him comprehend the Dao, get rid of his obsession, and fulfill the Sword Saint's wish. Only in this way can we pass the test, rescue Zhao Ling'er, and leave the Demon Locking Tower."

"After all... this is the only way to save him. In that case... the Sword Saint senior shouldn't make things difficult for us."

Zheng Zha winked at Zhang Jie. Zhang Jie immediately understood and used the mind chain to connect the two.

—Chu Xuan, I didn't understand!
"The wisdom of mortals... I have already collected Li Xiaoyao's soul. If the Sword Saint still wants Li Xiaoyao to become the next leader of the Shu Mountain Sect, he must let me take the soul crystal out."

This was originally a tool that Chu Xuan planned to use to complete Lin Yueru's side quest... but now it's being used on Li Xiaoyao.

—So that's how it is. No wonder the word order was so strange... Was it meant for the Sword Saint?
Zheng Zha suddenly realized, but on the surface, he used the third-order gene lock to simulate less than half of Chu Xuan's thinking.

The point is not to think, but to keep your expressionless face.

—But Li Xiaoyao is dead, so why not just replace him as the sect leader?

"The theme of The Legend of Sword and Fairy 1 is destiny. Lin Yueru's death was destiny. Zhao Ling'er's death was also destiny, and Li Xiaoyao becoming the leader of the Shu Mountain Sect... was still destiny."

"The Sword Saint is the maintainer of destiny, not its destroyer. Although we have disrupted destiny now, at least there is still room for maneuver. If the Soul Crystal shatters and Li Xiaoyao's soul returns to the underworld, destiny will be truly broken!" "Once fate is confused, it could lead to even greater calamities!"

--Understood……

"Right now, our three parties share the same goal, so we can cooperate for the time being. But once we leave the Demon-Sealing Tower... we'll have to treat them as enemies."

"To prevent Reinhardt from resorting to desperate measures... find an opportunity to throw the newcomers of this horror film to them."

—What does this have to do with newcomers?
“This newcomer… I’ve seen his profile in real life. His name is Haotian, and to us, he’s a mole. Since he’s here… then his partner is likely in one of the other two teams.”

The underlying logic for entering the God's Space is disappointment with reality... or a desire to escape reality.

Based on Haotian's information, he does not meet this criterion at all.

Unless... Adam enters the main god space and finds an opportunity to invite his partner.

Knowing Adam as he did, Chu Xuan knew Adam wouldn't be foolish enough to ask his partner to join another team in a non-team-based horror movie, as that would prevent him from maximizing his partner's potential...

Moreover, Adam's primary goal should have been himself.

And his true identity... is in the Central Continent Team. There is a greater than 50% chance that Adam will place his true identity, Haotian, in the Central Continent Team.

So, even if Haotian really controls the Central Continent Team, there will only be one winner in the Samsara Team.

It is true that Adam and Haotian had a good relationship, but Haotian was not Adam's slave, so how could he really carry out a task that was bound to result in death?

This indicates that Adam's squad... must be a squad that has a regular route to get there.

There is only one such team, and that is the Celestial Team!

Chu Xuan can use this to deduce the full picture of Adam's plan.

Haotian infiltrated the Central Continent Team and orchestrated their annihilation. Then, leveraging his unique abilities, he became the captain in the next horror movie. After being certified as captain, Haotian was able to travel to the Celestial God Team and reunite with Adam!
The idea was outlandish, and the plan was so complex that failure at any step would lead to total failure...

Adam, your competitive spirit has made you a clown.

Now, both the gods and the Central Continent are in this cycle of reincarnation.

Zhao Zhuikong's reckless actions will prevent Adam from understanding the true strength of the Zhongzhou Team.

Barring unforeseen circumstances, Adam would proceed with his original plan, viewing this as an excellent opportunity to contact Haotian and coordinate an attack from within to wipe out the Zhongzhou team.

Once the Celestial Team has witnessed the power of the Central Continent Team... the rest will be much easier.

The demon Haotian is also Haotian. He also has a "rendezvous need," is Adam's partner, and is a mole within the Celestial Team.

In order to strengthen the Celestial Team and wipe out the Central Continent Team, Haotian will definitely try to change Reinhardt's stance and make him stand on the side of the Celestial Team.

With Adam as his backup, Reinhardt, who was already worried about Zheng Zha's faction targeting the Central Continent Team, would make an obvious choice.

—Such a complicated plan, will it work?

Zheng Zha was almost completely confused by Chu Xuan.

Whether it works or not doesn't matter. These things are just incidental.

Chu Xuan gave this answer while bound by the mental chains.

"The most important thing is to find a way to make the Central Continent team not see us as enemies."

“Remember, Zheng Zha, we have rune stones... negative scores won't lead to annihilation.”

--What's the meaning?
"At the very least, you... must get back alive."
