Chapter 812: Chapter 812 Eavesdropping
Ling Feng moved like a ghost, cautiously following behind the two figures. Although one of them was almost a Demigod, they remained oblivious to the small tail trailing them.
Reaching the top floor, they entered a conference room, and Ling Feng carefully approached.
"The soundproofing here is that good?" Not a single sound escaped from within, which left Ling Feng slightly disappointed.
Looking around, Ling Feng slipped into a nearby restroom. Above the restroom was a ventilation duct. His body twisted, shrinking to half its original size, and with a light leap, he dove into the duct.
Inside the ventilation shaft, Ling Feng moved with the agility of a gecko, silently making his way above the conference room.
"Is everyone here now?" A low, deep voice resonated.
Ling Feng edged closer, concealing his aura to the utmost limit!
From the conference room below, Ling Feng sensed multiple powerful presences, one of which was on par with how strong he himself had been six months earlier!
"Holy Envoy, all the senior members of the Freedom Organization have arrived!"
The owner of the deep voice spoke, "Good, since everyone is here, Iâll now inform you of your next mission!"
"Please go ahead, Holy Envoy," someone said.
The Holy Envoy spoke calmly, "I know everyone present here is a pillar of the Freedom Organization, the backbone the organization relies on. Thatâs why this crucial mission is entrusted to you!"
"Previously, the organization tasked you with spreading the news of the emergence of the Continent of Atlantisty, and you did a great job!" The Holy Envoy continued, "However, I must tell you, this isnât a rumor. The real Atlantis Continent will soon emerge!"
"What?! This is real?"
"Unbelievable! How could it be? Isnât the legend of Atlantis a mere myth?"
"Exactly! For countless years, so many strong individuals have searched but found nothing!"
...
Upon hearing this news, a flurry of discussions broke out below.
The Holy Envoy, understanding the impact of such news, didnât stop the crowd from expressing their disbelief.
A few minutes later, the room gradually fell silent. The Holy Envoy resumed, "I know many of you are skeptical, but I can assure you, our organization has always known the location of the Atlantis Continent. However, the timing wasnât right to reveal anythingâuntil now!"
"Holy Envoy, what do you mean by âuntil nowâ? Are you saying..."
"Exactly. Now is the perfect opportunity to unlock the Atlantis Continent!" The Holy Envoy spoke with a trace of excitement, "And this mission is directly related to unlocking it!"
"The conditions to unlock Atlantis have been met. But the true Atlantis is filled with danger and death. Therefore, before unlocking it, thereâs a vital task we must accomplishâgathering the complete map of Atlantis!" The Holy Envoy spoke plainly, "Only with the full map can we ensure survival in Atlantis."
At this moment, a man asked, "Holy Envoy, is our mission to search for the map?"
"Exactly!" The Holy Envoy replied with a hint of appreciation, "A while ago, one of the Freedom Organizationâs branches was attacked, resulting in the loss of a map fragmentâa fragment of the Atlantis map. In addition to that piece, there are eight others. Your task is to locate all of them. Once the map is complete, we can proceed to unlock the Atlantis Continent!"
"Holy Envoy, we have no idea where these map fragments are!"
"No need to worry. I do!" the Holy Envoy said calmly. "I can pinpoint the locations of all nine fragments. After that, retrieving them will be your responsibility!"
With that, the Holy Envoy waved his hand, and an ethereal globe projection appeared in midair.
Then, the Holy Envoy pulled out a black metal piece from his chest and placed it on the globeâs projection.
Muttering under his breath, the Holy Envoy caused the metal piece to float midair, trembling continuously.
Ling Fengâs curiosity was piqued; he wanted to peer further into what was happening below. However, he had to keep suppressing his presence, fearing discovery by the experts in the room.
Suddenly, with a loud cry from the Holy Envoy, the metal piece shattered, splitting into nine fragments that landed on various points of the globe, still trembling.
The Holy Envoy, now slightly weary, said, "These nine locations represent the fragments of the Atlantis map!"
With another wave of his hand, the globe transformed into a massive world map, revealing the precise locations of the nine fragments.
*Hiss!* Seeing the revealed locations, everyone took in a sharp breath.
"How is this possible? These fragments... London, Vatican, Holy City of Greece... Theyâre all in the hands of other organizations?"
Gazing at the nine map fragments, the Holy Envoy said flatly, "For now, the fragments are all near Europe. Thatâs good news for us. However, some fragments are located within the territories of the Papal Court of Light, the Alliance of Gods, and the Dark Cathedral. We must retrieve these three fragments within a short timeframe!"
The Holy Envoy pointed to three specific fragments, stating, "The Louvre, the Pyramid, and the Mediterraneanâthese three are non-negotiable!"
Ling Feng was deep in thought. From their conversation, he was able to confirm the locations of six fragmentsâbut the remaining three?
As Ling Feng pondered, the Holy Envoyâs voice rang again, "Once we have these three fragments, we can cooperate with other organizations to unlock the Atlantis Continent. At that time, it will also mark the moment when Hellâs Gate officially steps onto the stage!"
Hellâs Gate! Ling Feng was utterly shocked. He had never imagined that behind the Freedom Organization lay the shadow of Hellâs Gateâs influence!
Just as he was reeling from the revelation, a wisp of Ling Fengâs aura was detected by the Holy Envoy below.
"Whoâs there!" The Holy Envoy roared, hurling a punch toward Ling Fengâs position.
Ling Feng silently cursed his luck. With no choice, he burst out of the ventilation duct, smashed through the ceiling, and fled the building.
*Boom! Boom! Boom!* The Holy Envoyâs strike and Ling Fengâs abrupt exit caused the entire structure to tremble.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!" The enormous commotion triggered alarms, and countless Freedom Organization warriors surged toward Ling Feng.
"Youâre not getting away!" The Holy Envoy flicked his sleeve and launched into pursuit, standing face to face with Ling Feng in the open.
Ling Feng, now donning his Clown mask, stared back at the Holy Envoy with amusement.
"Who are you, daring to infiltrate our Freedom Organizationâs base?" The Holy Envoy was inwardly astonished. His earlier strike had been full of fury and power, yet the intruder emerged unscathed. Clearly, this opponentâs strength wasnât inferior to his own!
