Chapter 369 Finalized Plan

"drop--!"

Cao Yang received a text message from... Shen Lin.

"The bank vault in Los Angeles really knows how to choose a location."

The content of the text message was very simple. Shen Lin provided him with the location to implement the plan. Cao Yang did not pay much attention to it. He was not clear about the specific content of Shen Lin's plan, but he knew that this text message was just a layer of protection.

"How is Gao Ming's matter going?"

After returning to the headquarters, Cao Yang found that Wang Xiaoming's face looked even uglier. He was a sickly sallow color and had become terribly thin, with only skin and bones left.

"Wei Jing is still investigating, and there aren't many clues, but Lu Zhiwen has also joined in, and he's quite good at this."

Wang Xiaoming said weakly that he now has less time to get out of bed and move around. Almost every day he can only lie in bed, receive infusions, and stare at the ceiling in a daze or think.

Beside the bed, Lu Zhiwen still had that stiff expression on his face, his mouth opening and closing, and sounds so flat and devoid of any emotion coming out of his mouth.

"Through some clues provided by Yang Jian, I have roughly determined some information."

"Chen Qiaoyang is a ghost rider who has been trapped in the Wang family's ancient house in Dadong City for decades. He had a conflict with Li Jun not long ago. He is a genuine captain-level ghost rider."

"Old Nie and Old Zhang have too little information to pinpoint, but what is certain is that this team of ghost riders is extremely dangerous, and each of them may be as powerful as a captain."

“Although only four people showed up, no one can guarantee that this team only has four people.”

"There are four captain-level ghost riders in the team. The leader is even more terrifying. Even Yang Jian's ghost den was defeated. I'm afraid that in the near future, we will have a tough battle to fight."

Lu Zhiwen's voice was not loud, but everyone present felt their hearts sink, as if they had been hit by a sledgehammer. The enormous pressure made them feel a little breathless.

"An old man who refuses to die is a thief. These ghost riders have lived for so long. If we can control them, perhaps we can get more useful information from them."

Wang Xiaoming's perspective is very tricky. Although he had made some progress in research in this field before he became terminally ill, it is extremely difficult to allow a captain-level ghost rider to live safely for decades.

"I'm afraid it won't be that easy. Even if we have twelve captains, we may not be able to defeat them if we don't send out eight or more."

Lu Zhiwen continued.

Li Jun recalled the situation at that time. He even had a feeling that even if he borrowed the supernatural power of ghost paintings, he might not be able to pose a threat to Old Zhang. This might not be an illusion.

"Old Zhang was horrible. Yang Jian didn't even have time to use the coffin nails before our ferry was overturned and sank into the lake. I think everyone here knows what this means.

Wei Jing glanced sideways. Everyone in the supernatural circle knew that the coffin nails in Yang Jian's hand could suppress evil spirits without any solution. However, Li Jun's words undoubtedly increased the threat level of the opponent again. The headquarters must make a careful decision.

"The enemy's target seems to be the ghost painting. We must increase the blockade of Ping An Building in the near future, and then send a few ghost riders with strong survivability to guard it. We don't ask them to stop the enemy, as long as they can buy some time."

Cao Yang said that he was aware of the Peach Blossom Spring plan, but did not hope that Zhang Xianguang could implement it, because no one would want their relatives and descendants to live in a world of ghost paintings from now on.

"Let's handle this matter this way for now. Professor Wang, what do you think about the selection of people to guard the Ping An Building?"

After being discharged from the hospital, Cao Yanhua had basically recovered, so he returned directly to the headquarters and continued to serve as the deputy minister in name only.

Hearing this, Wang Xiaoming closed his eyes and recalled a lot of information in his mind.

After a long time, he slowly said:
"Su Fan, Lin Ye, Feng Quan or Zhao Tong."

"The ghost controlled by Su Fan is similar to some kind of foresight, which can predict danger in advance and take preventive measures. Lin Ye has a ghost den, so even if the opponent is aggressive, he can run away if he can't beat him." "Feng Quan has a lot of experience, rich experience in handling things, and is a steady person. Zhao Tong is a team member of Cao Yang. They have experienced the fierce ghost road incident together. He has good ability and courage."

"Actually, Xiong Wenwen is also very suitable, but I don't think Yang Jian will agree, and his mother won't agree either."

"Then let's make the arrangements. Shen Liang, go make the arrangements. Each person on duty will be equipped with five ghost candles, two surrogate dolls, and one set of other supernatural props."

Cao Yanhua gave the order with a serious expression, and Shen Liang left the ward silently, preparing to contact the people who had just been called.

"What do you think about Zhang Xuan and the King's Organization?"

After Shen Liang left, Cao Yanhua continued to ask.

"I think it is necessary to arrange for Zhang Xuan to return home as soon as possible. If we lose troops before the war even starts, it will be very disadvantageous to us."

Li Jun spoke first, and Wei Jing and Lu Zhiwen also nodded, agreeing with his opinion.

"Then please ask the deputy minister to contact Zhang Xuan as soon as possible. I can go abroad to meet him and try to get back before the captain's meeting begins."

Cao Yang shrugged. Although he didn't know Zhang Xuan's specific situation, he was obviously the most suitable person to take on this job because he possessed the strongest ghost. Even if he really encountered danger, he would try his best to escape unscathed.

"Okay, I'll make arrangements right away."

Cao Yanhua nodded, turned and left.

"Please all the captains leave first. Professor Wang's condition is not optimistic and is not suitable for long-term activities and thinking."

As the medical staff's voices rang out, several captains present also quietly retreated.

Headquarters, Office of the Deputy Minister.

Cao Yanhua's face was gloomy. He had just contacted Zhang Xuan, but he didn't expect that Zhang Xuan's every move was under strict surveillance. Even this contact was conducted in the ghost den out of necessity.

"Cao Yang, Zhang Xuan's condition is already very critical. I'm afraid your trip won't be that simple."

"I understand, uncle. But Zhang Xuan is a captain of the headquarters after all, we can't give up on him. Moreover, the King's Organization has formulated the Noah's Ark Plan. This is a cruel war, and Zhang Xuan, as a captain-level high-end combat force, is also an indispensable part of this war."

Cao Yang said.

"Sometimes I really want to be a selfish person all the time, but I can't. Sitting in this position, I have to consider everything for the overall situation."

"I won't say any more, you must come back alive."

Cao Yanhua's face was filled with worry. He felt proud but also guilty about his nephew.

Then, he took out a golden box about the size of his arm and handed it to Cao Yang, saying seriously:

"There is a ghost incense inside. When it is lit, it will emit a fragrance that only ghosts can smell. The evil ghosts that smell the fragrance will stop moving and fall into a state of sleep. The sleeping ghost will not attack anyone, even if an ordinary person triggers the ghost's killing pattern."

"But the time it takes to take effect is uncertain. It may be a moment, it may take ten seconds, or it may take a minute."

"We must come back alive."
