Chapter 1463 Omniscient Powers

His brain was still unable to believe this shocking fact.

However, under pressure from Meng Chao, which felt like the end of the world, his body had already given up on resisting.

Shen Yulin collapsed to the ground like a pile of mud. His arms, which had lost their hands, were like giant pythons that had lost their vertebrae, dangling on both sides of his body. “I don’t want to die.”

He said in a trembling voice, “Spare me. Save me. I’ll tell you everything. I-I’ve been forced into a corner. As long as you spare me, I’ll tell you everything!”

“Very well. Let’s resume the topic we were talking about just now.” Meng Chao nodded and injected a stream of gentle spirit energy into Shen Yulin’s body, which temporarily sealed the blood vessels at the ends of his arms and stopped his blood from spurting out like fireworks.

At the same time, he injected a few weak biological currents into his cerebral cortex, stimulating his central nerves to maintain his sharpness. It would ensure that his thoughts would not become chaotic and blurry due to excessive blood loss.

After completing all those steps, Meng Chao continued to ask, “Who are your accomplices, the Blood Alliance members that infiltrated the Supernatural Tower, Universe Corporation, and Sky Pillar Corporation? Tell me their names.”

“This…”

Shen Yulin looked conflicted. “I don’t know.”

Meng Chao perked up his brows in surprise. “I don’t mind. After all, your liver is torn, and I’m not the one bleeding internally.”

Meng Chao reminded him, “You really don’t know?”

“I, I really don’t know!”

Shen Yulin’s face was filled with despair, “I’m only a peripheral member of the Blood Alliance. My communication with my superiors has always been one way. I don’t even know the true identity of my superiors. Under normal circumstances, it’s my superiors who take the initiative to contact me through a disposable communicator, deep web mail, or a dead drop. I really don’t know the names of any other Blood Alliance members apart from myself!”

“That’s impossible, isn’t it?”

Meng Chao said, “How do you explain that team of accomplices disguised as orcs? Didn’t you recruit them?”

“I did recruit them, but they don’t answer to me. In fact, I was only cooperating with my superiors.”

Shen Yulin explained with an innocent look on his face, “I reported the difficulties that I encountered in my current work to my superiors. So, they’ll naturally solve those problems in their own way. I don’t need to know the details of the plan or the name of the executor. I just need to follow the instructions of my superiors and transfer the searchlights, drones, and guards at the rear of the crystal mine. It’s that simple.”

“What about the female doctor?”

Meng Chao stared at Shen Yulin. “Didn’t you send her here to silence her?”

“No, this is our first time working together. I don’t know her name, and what I saw may not be her real face. Following my supervisor’s orders, I only gave her a fake badge and exposed a loophole in Universe Corporation’s internal management system so that she could plant a fake identity,” Shen Yulin said with a pained expression. “She’s in charge of filling in the gaps in this operation. I can temporarily dispatch her, but there’s no superior-subordinate relationship between us!” “So, what you said earlier was a lie?” Meng Chao said, “Everything about the Blood Alliance including elites from all walks of life, be it the Supernatural Tower or the nine corporations, you have your people, and your foundation, connections, and strength are so powerful that I can’t imagine it—Was that all a lie?”

“No, no, no. I wasn’t lying to you. Even if I had ten guts, I wouldn’t dare lie about such a thing!”

Shen Yulin hurriedly said, “The Blood Alliance is indeed very powerful. We… Their members are from all walks of life in Dragon City. That includes the Shen family and Universe Corporation. There are definitely members of the Blood Alliance who are of a higher level than me. I-I’m just a peripheral member, an insignificant pawn!” “How do you know that?”

Meng Chao narrowed his eyes and scratched Shen Yulin’s Adam’s apple like an old razor blade. “Since you don’t know the name of any Blood Alliance member, how do you know that the Blood Alliance is ‘powerful and omnipresent’? Even those in Universe Corporation, whose ranks are higher than yours, are members?”

“No, you don’t need to know their names. You can tell a lot of things!”

Sensing Meng Chao’s suspicion and killing intent, Shen Yulin became so scared that his head was about to fly up. He continued to speak like a cannonball. “Take the project to develop the crystal ore veins outside Monster Mountain Range as an example. In the beginning, there were four parties competing for project leadership in Universe Corporation.

“Among the four parties, my team was the weakest in terms of experience, capability, funds, and connections.

“No one, including myself, thought highly of me. They all thought that I had been temporarily recruited to make up the numbers and ‘accompany the bid’ in order to satisfy Universe Corporation’s internal competition regulations. “In the end, one of my three competitors became mentally deranged during training and got seriously injured. Although his life was not in danger, he had to lie in the medical cabin for at least a year and a half.

“Another one got involved in a scandal when people found out that three years ago, he had faked his military exploits in a competition for a key position. He had also used monster materials secretly purchased from the black market as proof that he had been hunting monsters. You know, military exploits are everything for superhumans. Faking military exploits is a high-pressure line that can’t be crossed no matter what. When his scandal was exposed, forget competing for the crystal ore mine, even his current position was wiped out. He could only guard the warehouse in the wilderness.

“The last competitor was the strongest. Not only does he hold a key position in Universe Corporation, but he’s also my uncle in the Shen family. He’s highly trusted by the entire family. I wasn’t qualified to compete with him.

“Just when everyone thought that this uncle of mine would possess the crystal mine, he gave up on the project of his own accord. He even publicly expressed that he greatly appreciated my talents and believed that I was the most confident person amongst the Shen family’s younger generation to make this project sound and impressive. He’s already old, so in the future, the Shen family will have to be led by someone from the younger generation like me. Therefore, he’s going to give me more opportunities to train, and he’ll spare no effort to support me from behind.

“It was because of my uncle’s endorsement that I was able to manage the crystal mine successfully.

“The problem is that my uncle and I don’t have a deep relationship at all.

“In fact, due to the internal competition in the group, there were some minor conflicts in the

past.

“My uncle also had his beloved sons, disciples, and trusted subordinates. Logically speaking, even if he only wanted to find a puppet, it wouldn’t be me!

“One could say that it was a coincidence or luck if something like that happened once.

“It happened three times in a row. Three strong competitors were all ‘defeated’ for no reason. If it isn’t connected to the Blood Alliance’s power, what else could it be?” Meng Chao nodded thoughtfully.

He did not think that Shen Yulin would lie in such detail when his hands had been cut off at the same time and his heart was literally in his hands.

Besides, the contact methods he mentionedone-way contact, disposable crystal communicator, deep web mail, dead drop, etc.

—were indeed the best choices for a secret organization with a tight structure.

“Tell me about your superior.”

Meng Chao continued to ask, “Since you don’t know his real identity, how did you contact him in the beginning? Under what circumstances did you join the Blood Alliance?”

“From the beginning, it was the other party who took the initiative to contact me.”

Shen Yulin’s face was pale as he regretfully said, “Yes, it was an anonymous letter. An anonymous letter that lay quietly in my desk drawer. The letter was filled with dirt on me.”

“Dirt on you?”

Meng Chao said with great interest, “What could be so shameful that the other party could use it as dirt on you?”

“I-I pretty much didn’t do anything!”

Shen Yulin shouted, “I swear to the heavens that I didn’t do anything wrong. I was the same as all the superhumans. To protect Dragon City, I pinned my heart on my sleeve and fought bloody battles with the monsters on the front lines. I left dozens of scars on my body and escaped the overwhelming beast horde five times!

“However, you know the unspoken rules in the circle of superhumans. In order to constantly break through the limits and surpass the peak, it’s impossible to be too cautious and behave!

“I hid some of the spoils of war.

“I found a new crystal ore lode, but I didn’t send the relevant information to the Supernatural Tower to register it. Instead, I sold it to someone else in private.

“The purchaser from the black market is unknown to this day. However, the materials weren’t very stable. There was a possibility of going crazy and harming others and themselves.

“The superhumans had a small conflict with their competitors as they competed for battle merits.

“In short, they were all trivial matters.

“Everyone does it. As long as there’s no real evidence and no big mess, no one will take something like this seriously.

“However, many things did not merely weigh two or three kilograms on the scale. They could not be weighed because the scale would not have been able to hold a thousand kilograms!

“The anonymous letter was filled with evidence against me. There was also a large amount of evidence that I thought I had erased. Thinking about it makes me shudder and sweat profusely.

“Anyway, the person who wrote the anonymous letter did not make me panic. He did not mean any harm.

“The real culprit was someone inside Universe Corporation, who was jealous of my outstanding performance at that time because I had blocked their way. That’s why the person gathered all the evidence in secret and tried to bring me down with the scandal. “As a ‘friend,’ the person who wrote the anonymous letter couldn’t bear to see such an outstanding talent like me being defeated by such a trivial scandal. Therefore, without my knowledge, he had already taken action in secret and helped me solve all my problems.

“He asked me not to take this small matter to heart and didn’t ask for anything in return, except my precious friendship. “Of course, if I valued his friendship and was willing to offer a small favor to a friend, like help him get the details of a project that Universe Corporation was working on at that time, he would be even more overjoyed and grateful!”
