Chapter 145: Ptooey, This is Your Awesome Plan?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Fang Ning did come up with a backup plan, and he had the confidence to convince the System, he was never a decisive person, or he would not have procrastinated so much…

That was why when the System threatened to stop his connection to outside world for six months, he went back to the System Prison and discussed with Anderson and the snakecharmer Sadi for a long while when the System continued to farm monsters.

He made sure all the details were in place before he was slightly more confident.

He still felt pretty bad, ‘If only Sadi would know more about the king cobra’s weak points, I wouldn’t have to do so much…’

‘Even though the backup plan was really, really good, even Sir System would be impressed if it worked out, most of the work was still done by me, and they were all the things I hated doing.’

‘On the other hand, Sir System would have nothing to do, completely reversing the usual workflow, that’s disappointing…’

Having thought it out, Fang Ning switched on his computer with the intention of typing out a to-do list. If he missed out anything and caused the plan to fail, his internet would really be gone for half a year.

As he switched on the computer, it drew the System’s attention.

The System said, “What are you doing? Didn’t you say you have an amazing idea? What are you keeping from me, are you going to play your game again?”

Wrongfully accused by the System, Fang Ning was hurt. As a former programmer, he hated the workflow part the most.

Now, to make sure the plan would go well, he finally dragged himself to do the work he hated the most, but his intention was misunderstood, how could he not be hurt?

He immediately retorted, “I’m writing a workflow, okay? All the talk about having a sudden brilliant idea and instincts and such can only happen in novels. It’s fine, I’ll dismiss all the times you’ve done that to me, you can overpower the monsters, so I’ll just give you the ideas, and you execute. This time, it’s a demon so strong even you have to retreat, I have to write everything down, list it, calculate the possible risks, and find plan B before I dare to let you execute the-”

The System said, “Is that so? You’re saying I misunderstood you?”

Fang Ning created a new word document, starting to type, and kept muttering, “Of course you did, so I should ask you for some compensation for my mental trauma-”

[The System is in battle…]

Fang Ning whined, “You play dead every time we talk about money…”

***************

After Fang Ning had finished drafting up the workflow, the people from the Truth Department had already gotten the warning from the Whitetail Monkey King and started their own emergency preparation.

The warning had allowed them a few hours of preparation. After that, a scout outpost sent a message to them saying the mutated Blood Porcupine demons had started charging toward the headquarters from the east, and that they had already sent out drones to follow the group.

At this stage, the people of the Truth Department had congregated at the headquarters in the Land of Heritage.

The place was the most important base for both crops and physical cultivation. It had the best location, best quality crops, best cultivation efficiency, and the largest capacity for people to cultivate.

Long story short, it was a place they would absolutely not abandon, and a place they would never let the creatures get close.

After going through the briefing, everyone entered the command center. The electronic map had already received the electrical signals from the drones and was showing the location of those porcupine demons in real time.

After so many years, the Truth Department’s information advantage had already been established. They have worked hard to foster the relationship between them and nearby demonic tribes. Having such important source of information, they could not let latecomers destroy this relationship.

After observing for a while, it seemed the porcupines were heading their way.

As soon as it was confirmed, Elder Hai immediately ordered them to be intercepted.

Tens of thousands of members dressed in black uniform immediately rushed toward the path the porcupines would definitely take, falling into their military formation and waited.

The spot they chose was advantageous to them. If the porcupines wanted to charge into the headquarters, they would have to go past that path or risk trespassing into other demons’ territory, which would be a suicide.

Following their past experience, creatures that had gone berserk would not choose a detour even if they were confronted with an army.

However, something was wrong. An hour later, the electronic map showed that they had already turned around and made their way to a herb base further away.

Qiao Zijiang hollered, “It’s a feint! They’re really taking orders from the Indians. Even though our formation is strong, their individual strength is not, it’s hard to mobilize them. We can’t use the transportation, and they wouldn’t be able to catch up to the porcupine demons on foot. If we fell into their rhythm, our men would be exhausted.”

“Elder Hai, Principal Xu, Principal Qiao, what can we do?”

Qiao Anping crossed his arms, staring at the electronic map.

He said after a moment, “Principal, Elder Hai, let me go. The demons are strong, but I believe I can stall them for a few hours before our men surround them.”

Elder Hai was frowning, he found it hard to decide.

At last, he shook his head and instructed, “Order the personnel in the herb base to retreat immediately to the headquarters without delay. We shall abandon that place momentarily.”

Qiao Anping protested, “Elder Hai, are you just going to let the base be destroyed by those demons? It was a remote location, but we still spent six to seven years before it was completed. There had been many sacrifices in that place-”

Elder Hai shook his head again, “Don’t you think I know that? You have to know something. If we save the land but lost the people, both the land and the people would be lost, but if we can save the people even though we lost the land, both the people and the land would still survive the attack. This is a new situation. Before completely understanding the situation, we should be as strict as possible with the defense, but we shouldn’t launch an attack so recklessly, it’s too risky.”

Elder Hai immediately turned to Qiao Zijiang and said, “Zijiang, ask Long Fan to get those people’s new location. We should aim where it hurts. Anping, prepare to attack, your target isn’t the porcupine demons, but the group of Indians. Catch them alive. If they had started giving controlling those demons, they should be close by.”

Qiao Anping nodded, waiting patiently for his niece for the reconnaissance.

***************

At the same time, outside the Land of Heritage, there was a busy street near a temple in India. From time to time, prayer sounds escape the hallowed halls of the temple.

Even so, quietness lingered in a side room behind the temple. Three Caucasians, two men and a woman, was listening to the report from their dark-skinned subordinate.

After the report, the three allowed their subordinate to rest outside while they discussed among themselves.

Amongst the three, a handsome man wore a hesitant expression as he said, “Girilal had been more and more impudent. If he had discovered the future incarnate of the God of Destruction, he should have reported back a.s.a.p. instead of duking it out with the Truth Department. He only sent people back to report after he had started his operation, he was clearly trying to pull a fait accompli.”

The older man defended Girilal’s action, saying, “It’s fine, Kamal we all knew the true strength of the Truth Department. According to the report, it looks like no one would be able to touch the king cobra.”

“Girilal was trying to snatch a base for us, the intention was not wrong. After all, if it fails, we could say that our men didn’t know the rules and that we only knew after the deed was done. The Truth Department have their ways of determining a false statement. If we said it that way, they wouldn’t be able to fault us. Girilal was doing the right thing.”

The handsome Caucasian man, Kamal, immediately started to redden with fury, “Maram, how could you twist it like that? He might have been your disciple, but he had already made a huge mistake, why would you feign ignorance?”

“The king cobra was powerful, yes. And it may be stronger than any of them, but they are still the advance party. They won’t even need the Six Powerhouses, a Special Investigation Unit team leader would be able to subdue them. The king cobra would not have protected them. If it turned out that not only they couldn’t secure that piece of land, and we even have to pay a ransom to get them back, I’m telling you, I won’t go.”

Maram’s eyes darkened as he said, “Kamal, how are you so timid, being a young man and the heir of the God of Destruction? I am not afraid of the Truth Department’s people. As the heir of the God of Creation, I shall go to the Land of Heritage myself. With the help of the king cobra, I will fight against the Six Powerhouses, and I will prevail in gaining a piece of land.”

Finishing his sentence, he did not wait for his partners to stop him as he turned into a wisp of smoke and disappeared from the temple.

Kamal stared at the smoke and said to the woman, “Sina, look at him. He’s always so cocky, ignoring my opinion just because he’s the heir of the God of Creation. His recklessness showed up in all his priests, one more impudent than the other.”

The Caucasian woman, Sina, comforted him, “Calm down, Kamal. Maram’s clan holds a lot of power. Girilal is one of his own, so he will definitely save him. It’s fine if he goes alone. As the heir of the God of Destruction, you would know how strong the king cobra is.”

***************

The Truth Department’s Land of Heritage Headquarters.

Time passed. Seconds, minutes have gone by. The three elders were all staring at Qiao Zijiang anxiously.

Qiao Zijiang had been frowning the whole time, not saying anything.

Obviously, it means Long Fan did not manage to locate the Indians.

Suddenly, a field telephone rang.

Elder Xu picked it up immediately, and his face changed after a little while.

“Alright, alright. Thank Vigilante A for me. Let him in, please. Actually, never mind. Anping and I will go meet him ourselves.”

Qiao Zijiang’s face changed and asked, “Principal Xu, is Vigilante A here?”

Elder Xu put down the phone, his face helpless, “It is him.”

Qiao Zijiang said, “How would he know of this place? Long Fan had been a good acquaintance of his. Could it be that the Soul Labyrinth on Long Fan was dispelled?”

Qiao Anping said, “Don’t worry about that now. It’s good that he’s here, we now have four of the ‘strongest elites’. Moreover, he’s a descended true dragon, he’s naturally strong against all the demons. Even if the enemies have something up on their sleeves, with a dragon as an ally, we’ll definitely be able to fight against them.”

Seeing Qiao Zijiang still frowning, Elder Xu said, “Zijiang, you might be overthinking it. Knowing Vigilante A and his sudden appearances, he probably followed the Indians in here. Xue Feng had just reported to me, not long ago, he had sent Vigilante A off out of the country, so he might have met the Indians there. Also, since the Indians have come in, it’s time we open this place up to our associates.”

Qiao Zijiang finally let go of her suspicions. That explanation was much more realistic than her suspicion.

Elder Hai stopped hesitating as well, “If that’s the case, let’s go and welcome Vigilante A’s arrival so we can get to discussing the important things.”

This had been a culmination of Vigilante A’s reputation. If it were anyone else, they would not have let an outsider into the core segments of the headquarter.

Among the four powerhouses of China, only Vigilante A was highly trustworthy. It had been confirmed earlier this year that he was planning for nothing other than to cultivate and to vanquish evil.

At this point, Vigilante A was standing outside of the Truth Department base peering in.

The System said, “Ptooey, this is your awesome plan? Isn’t it just ganging up on it?”

Fang Ning retorted immediately, “You knew jackshit about it. The best plan had always been ganging up on the enemy! After a formal declaration of war, almost all of the strategies had been to consolidate military power to fight against the weak…”

“Would a puny System such as you understand strategic thinking like this? I would be doing most of the work in a while, so shut up and let me clear my mind. Afterward, when they are getting the job done, you only need to take care of us, don’t let your allies die, and get the final blow, wouldn’t that be satisfying? Isn’t that awesome? I dare you to top that strategy…”

The System, “…”
