Super Invincible Battleship

Chapter 246: Chapter 140: Strike First

Seeing the bearded man suddenly pointing at him and calling out his name as the Destroyer, Yan Fei was startled. He had not expected his identity to be uncovered by the bearded man at that moment. However, as soon as he remembered that this was the Assassin Sect, where assassination techniques had been developed into an art form, he felt a sense of relief. If the Sect couldn’t even detect an enemy infiltrating their Headquarters, they would have been destroyed countless times and could never have left such a formidable reputation in history.

Yan Fei, having his identity exposed by the bearded man, did not deny it. He ripped off the foul-smelling robe he was wearing to reveal the black vigorous attire beneath, yet he did not remove the mask that covered his face. He laughed heartily and said, “True to the reputation of the Assassin Sect, you indeed have some skills to have discovered my infiltration so quickly.”

Seeing Yan Fei acknowledge his identity as the Destroyer, the other envoys and higher-ups from the Assassin Sect were shocked. They hurriedly flipped over their tables, stood up, drew the weapons they carried, and surrounded Yan Fei. Yang Wanlin, standing nearby, was also taken aback. He had not expected one of the people who had entered the Assassin Sect Headquarters with him to be someone seeking trouble with the Sect. Already on edge, he immediately shrank back, hiding behind the crowd, while the solidly built middle-aged man closely followed, ensuring his safety. The middle-aged man’s eyes glinted as he watched Yan Fei within the encirclement.

The bearded man sneered and said, “Destroyer, you underestimate our Assassin Sect. Did you really think that just because the equipment you passed on the way in didn’t detect you, you could safely infiltrate us?”

Yan Fei’s heart stirred, and he asked, “Do you have other methods to determine if an enemy has broken in?”

The bearded man said, “On the path where you came in, there are numerous programs in places visible to the eye that check your identity. And in places invisible to the eye, there are just as many devices detecting you. So, even if you are well-prepared and pass the visible checks, you will be discovered by the hidden detectors. For example, the elevator you entered for the first time has another identity – it’s an X-ray Detector. As soon as you entered the elevator, with the X-ray shining down, we could see right through you. You intentionally reduced the gaps between your bones, making your body smaller, and that naturally exposed you.”

Yan Fei felt enlightened by this explanation. He had not expected the opposition to have so many hidden modern devices and instruments that could clearly expose his true form. He asked, “Was it in that elevator that you identified me?”

The bearded man shook his head and said, “How could we be so slow? If an enemy managed to infiltrate as far as the elevator, he would have already caused us massive losses. In fact, as soon as you mixed into Ali’s squad, our people noticed you. You must be curious, considering how convincingly you disguised yourself as one of our warriors, why you were discovered immediately?”

Indeed curious, Yan Fei asked, “I am very curious, how did you find out my identity?”

The bearded man explained, “Everyone who practices our Sect’s unique Kung Fu emits a special wave. This wave can only be detected by others who are trained in the same Kung Fu, and outsiders, no matter how strong, cannot perceive it. This is the most effective way for our warriors to recognize each other when on missions. When you first mixed into Ali’s squad, Ali noticed something was off about you because you did not have that special wave. But, Ali did not call you out right away; instead, he brought you into our Sect Headquarters. When Ali first entered the metal door, he had gone into an enclosed room and called me on a landline to inform me of the situation and ask for further instructions. I told him to bring you here. Did you really think you could infiltrate the most secretive part of the Assassin Sect without any scrutiny, just because your face was covered? That would be a severe underestimation of our Sect’s security measures. Now that you’ve come to this room, where all the Sect’s elites are gathered, you are simply seeking your own death. By killing you, we will be rid of the shame you’ve brought upon our Sect.”

Yan Fei then realized why he had been discovered by the bearded man. The people of the Assassin Sect had such code-like secrets embedded within them. He also understood why he was able to easily make his way into the stone house; the opposite party had intended to let him fall into their trap. He laughed once more and said, “The reputation of the Assassin Sect indeed precedes it, with such a method for identifying identities. It’s truly beyond comprehension, no wonder it has stood unchallenged for so many years. However, I have one more question: how did you know that I am the Destroyer?”

Maybe feeling confident of victory, the bearded man began to satisfy Yan Fei’s curiosity, “The Assassin Sect has been established for nearly a thousand years, and no one has dared to assault our Headquarters because we have killed them all. Now, the only enemy who harbors hostility and has the strength against us is the Destroyer. It was the Destroyer who accepted the Bounty Task on the Dark Web to annihilate our Assassin Sect, posted by Yan Fei. So, when we discovered an outsider had breached the Sect Headquarters, we knew it must be the Destroyer. As soon as I ascertained you were the intruder, who else could you be but the Destroyer?”
