1864 Immediate Search and Rescue
No, not only that…
In fact, before the three members of the Blood Alliance were blown up, they had confessed to a lot of crimes. The authorities had also found relevant evidence and information.
According to one of them, at least thirty percent of the major projects that Dragon City had implemented in the past five years were inextricably linked to the Blood Alliance. They were worth more than five hundred million.
A large amount of funds had been secretly managed, and part of them flowed into the pockets of the relevant personnel in charge. Meanwhile, the other part became the funds for the Blood Alliance’s activities.

According to the second core member, the Blood Alliance had infiltrated the Red Dragon Army a long time ago. At least half of the supreme commanders of the new combat units were now members of the Blood Alliance, or at least supporters and sympathizers.
According to the third core member, Lu Siya was a backup plan that Lu Zhongqi had deliberately made because he insisted on not putting all his eggs in one basket.
Under normal circ.u.mstances, Lu Siya would lurk below the surface of the water and maintain a state of irreconcilable hostility with the nine mega corporations to gain the sympathy, grat.i.tude, and support of ordinary citizens to the greatest extent.
However, once Lu Zhongqi and Yun Feidian’s plot was exposed and the Blood Alliance was uprooted, Lu Siya would be “activated.” This would allow the Blood Alliance to be reborn in a new way.
Similarly, Lu Siya’s close comrade, Meng Chao, was also a member of the Blood Alliance, and he had been one from the very beginning.
Although most of the Blood Alliance members were extremists among the nine great families, that did not mean they would ignore the potential of the lower-cla.s.s superhumans. The aristocratic families had been “betting on both sides” from two thousand years ago on Earth.
As mentioned earlier, the Blood Alliance had obtained a large amount of funds and resources through the major projects that Dragon City had invested astronomical amounts of money into in the past few years. A large portion of them had been invested in lower-cla.s.s superhumans like Meng Chao, and he did not disappoint them. He became the Blood Alliance’s most successful “trump card project” with the highest return on investment.
“Meng Chao and Lu Siya are the future of Dragon City.
“Haha!” the core member of the Blood Alliance chuckled crazily in the special escort vehicle that had been modified from a military troop carrier. It was inlaid with three layers of explosion-proof armor inside and outside. “With them, the Blood Alliance will never perish!”
Meng Chao and Lu Siya looked at each other at a loss when they heard this piece of information.
Of course, Shen Yupeng and Long Feijun did not suspect Meng Chao and Lu Siya just because of that person’s confession.
It was not that their trust in each other had reached an unbreakable level.
Instead, the core members of the Blood Alliance had unleashed their full power and almost incriminated most of the influential figures and future stars with boundless prospects in Dragon City.
If they believed every word they said, then there would be no good people in Dragon City’s circle of superhumans.
It was obvious that these guys were trying to frame and confuse the public. They were just buying time for the accomplices they really wanted to cover.
Evidence of crimes, including accounts and emails that had not been physically destroyed, could also be a smokescreen prepared in advance.
Therefore, it was necessary to send the core members of the Blood Alliance, who were wrapped in overlapping lies, to the temporary special prison together with all the evidence of their crimes.
Dragon City’s best interrogators, psychological experts, economic investigation experts, trace identification experts, and spirit attack experts would verify every word they said as well as every string of numbers found in their safe.
Unfortunately, this vital convoy was attacked.
No one knew who the mastermind of the attack was.
However, there were two things that made the situation ten times more complicated.
Firstly, due to the importance of the prisoners, the escort team had drawn up three routes in total. Half a minute before their departure, they had randomly chosen one of the routes by drawing lots.
Despite that, the attackers still managed to set up an ambush on the correct route within half an hour.
Secondly, the deputy commander of the escort team was a senior secret police officer who had served in the adjudicator court for more than ten years. He had unfortunately died in the fierce crossfire.
Death was not an unacceptable end for the secret police.
What was unacceptable was the way he died.
Even though his corpse had been torn into pieces by the explosion’s shock wave, the best coroner in Dragon City managed to retrieve the scattered pieces of his skull. He then completed the reconstruction of his entire skull and confirmed his fatal injury.
The deputy commander had not been killed by the explosion.
Instead, he died from a gunshot wound to the back of his head before the explosion.
Someone had opened fire with a large-caliber pistol that had been loaded with full-power crystal bullets at a distance of less than one centimeter from the back of his head.
The violent a.s.sault burned his spirit energy and devoured his brain.
The problem was, the survivors clearly remembered that when the murderer opened fire from behind the deputy commander, the escort’s defense line had not collapsed.
Theoretically, all the attackers should have been in front of them.
Those behind the deputy commander should have only been people on their side.
It was the deputy commander’s death that led to an opening in the defense line. Many of the attackers were covered in crystal explosives as they swarmed the escorts and blew them up.
It was obvious that there was a mole.
The Blood Alliance had not been uprooted with Yun Feidian and Lu Zhongqi’s death.
A large part of it was still alive and hiding in the darkness. It was still going strong, and its infectious nature had not been stymied.
The Survival Committee was responsible for the highest decision-making, while the adjudicator court, Research Department, Red Dragon Army, Azure Alliance, and nine mega corporations were responsible for specific implementation. For these organizations to operate normally, stably, and at full capacity, the residual poison of the Blood Alliance needed to be completely removed and purified. Otherwise, they would fail to work together perfectly and unite as one.
Therefore, this terrible news was like the last straw that broke the camel’s back, and it helped Wu Haibo make up his mind.
“Alright. It appears that even if we report to the higher-ups, we won’t be able to get a response from them for the time being. It’s possible that the Battle G.o.d’s disappearance will trigger a new chain reaction and add fuel to the fire of the already chaotic situation.”
Wu Haibo sighed as he looked at Meng Chao and the others with bright eyes. “Meng Chao, you’re right. We’re going all out, so of course, we have to roll the dice ourselves.
“No one understands the dangers and secrets of the ancient ruins better than the Ancient Ruins Research Center.
“No one is more qualified than us to organize the first search and rescue team to venture deep into the ruins to find the Battle G.o.d!”
