The Last Commander of the Red Alert

Chapter 538: A New Identity

"Moyu Ghost Master is truly a disgrace among our Ghost Masters. As a Ghost Master, she has retreated in defeat twice during city assaults and returned heavily wounded each time."

"I told you earlier, young people are unreliable. She's just too young."

Conversations like these were common among the Ghost Masters. Those Ghost Clan members below the eighth order dared not speak ill, no matter what, of a Ghost Master.

Currently, the third spy was in an awkward position. Even within the Ghost Clan, there was competition. When Moyu had initially made her debut as the youngest Ghost Master, many older Ghost Masters had felt jealous. However, at that time, Moyu's popularity was soaring, and no one dared to say anything.

After experiencing two failures, the gossip among those Ghost Masters started. They no longer regarded Moyu as the hope of the Ghost Masters but criticized her instead.

"You all say that Moyu Ghost Master is inadequate. Why don't you go to Rainless City yourselves?" a mocking voice chimed in, spoken by another relatively young Ghost Master.

Among Ghost Masters, young Ghost Masters faced exclusion the most and had spontaneously formed a small alliance for mutual assistance.

Rainless City had become a taboo topic among the Ghost Masters, considering the losses of so many Ghost Clan powerhouses. No one dared to guarantee that they could capture Rainless City.

"Lord Jim, I suspect that Moyu Ghost Master may be colluding with humans. Otherwise, why is she the only one who survived while the other Ghost Masters perished?" This Ghost Master didn't respond to the provocation and instead respectfully spoke to another Ghost Master seated higher up.

This Ghost Master looked quite elderly, his whole body a mass of skin and bones, appearing as if he could drop dead at any moment. Some believed that he could die at any moment.

Ghost Masters were like that; they grew more powerful as they aged.

"Ghost Masters can't possibly collude with humans. There's no need to discuss this further," Ghost Master Jim waved his hand, not believing this Ghost Master's words.

As a strong presence among the Ghost Masters, Jim knew about the factional struggles within the Ghost Masters. As long as it didn't threaten the overall interests of the Ghost Clan, he generally wouldn't care.

Even he had never imagined that someone would disguise themselves as a Ghost Master and infiltrate their ranks for so long.

"By the way, how is Moyu Ghost Master's condition now?" Jim asked.

"Lord Jim, Moyu Ghost Master's condition is gradually improving. It shouldn't take more than a few days for her to recover," a respectful Seventh Order Ghost Clan member replied.

A smile appeared on Ghost Master Jim's face, but it looked somewhat terrifying.

"That's good. Summon Moyu Ghost Master. We need to inquire about the two recent incidents."

Before long, the third spy disguised as Moyu Ghost Master arrived.

"Greetings, Lord Jim," the third spy performed the Ghost Clan etiquette.

"Alright, tell me in detail about what you encountered at that time," Ghost Master Jim instructed.

The third spy breathed a sigh of relief. This matter wasn't too difficult. She took some time to recount everything that had happened back then.

After listening, Ghost Master Jim asked a question, "Why did so many City Lord-level Experts appear in such a small Rainless City?"

This time, it wasn't the third spy who answered, but another Ghost Master, "According to the information we've obtained, it was done by a force that calls itself the Red Alert Empire. They have a connection to the elimination of our Dark Cloud Weapons' Ghost Clan. Even the so-called Restoration Army in the human world seems to have ties to the Red Alert Empire."

The Ghost Clan was virtually a master of human intelligence. As long as they were willing, many humans were willing to provide them with information.

"Red Alert Empire?" murmured Ghost Master Jim.

"Who is the Emperor of this Empire?"

"Based on our information, the Empire's Emperor has never appeared. However, we suspect that he is Commander Su Chen of the Red Alert Base."

"Bring him here. This time, I will have a First-Class Ghost King take action," Ghost Master Jim made his final decision.

Even the weakest among the First-Class Ghost Kings were Ninth-Rank powerhouses. If several Ninth-Rank experts acted together, unaware individuals would certainly be terrified. What kind of treatment was this?

Unfortunately, they knew nothing about Su Chen's power. Even if they didn't use Super Soldiers, they couldn't infiltrate the Base. After all, the current Base, under the protection of Superweapon Absolute Defense, was in a league of its own.

The third spy had a thought but didn't say anything. She returned to her quarters directly.

Just now, the second spy had contacted her. He had arrived.

Not long after, a Ghost Clan member who appeared quite young came to her. Even though she was seeing this Ghost Clan member for the first time, she immediately sensed it; this was the second spy in disguise.

"Number Three, I'm here. Let's get ready to complete Commander's mission," in the second spy's mind, Commander's mission was the most important.

"Commander tasked us with finding information about the Ghost Clan deity. Only the Ghost Masters know about the Ghost Clan deity, and our target this time is Ghost Master Jim!" The third spy had already chosen her target.

Regular Ghost Masters might not necessarily know the specifics, but as one of the strong Ghost Masters, Jim must know.

All they needed to do was control Jim and force him to reveal information about the Ghost Clan deity.

After sharing her plan with the second spy, he thought for a moment and vetoed it, "No, the opponent is not weak. It's easy to raise suspicion prematurely. If we don't immediately control the situation, it will be challenging for us to escape from here with just the two of us."

"Our lives don't matter, but failing Commander's mission is not an option."

After a moment, the second spy suddenly thought of a solution, "I remember Commander saying that not all Ghost Clan members within the Ghost Clan believe in that deity. If I pretend to be a skilled Ghost Clan member who wants to believe in the deity, we should be able to find that place."

The third spy's eyes brightened; this was a good plan. Most importantly, it wouldn't expose their identities for now.

When they found the location of the Ghost Clan deity, revealing their identities wouldn't matter much.

"From now on, I will be a follower of your newly recruited Ghost King."

When the third spy, accompanied by the second spy, found Ghost Master Jim and revealed her intentions, Jim was delighted.

"Another believer joining our big family is a good thing. Your name is 'Aijiao,' right? For now, stay here for a few days. When the time comes, I will take you to meet the emissary of the deity in this world. Only that emissary can allow you to hear the voice of the gods."

As he said this, Jim's expression resembled that of a charlatan.

"Thank you, Lord Jim. I have an unusual request. He hasn't interacted much with other members of our kind before. Can I accompany him when we meet the emissary this time?" (To be continued...)
