The First Order Chapter 909
Advertisement
The Shadow Door could be used up to a distance of one kilometer at the farthest. Normally, such a distance was considered very far, but it also had a drawback. In complicated terrain like the mountains, it would be difficult to see the actual situation at a distance farther than tens to hundreds of meters. Therefore, it was impossible to accurately drop the TNT through the Shadow Door onto the target.
But fortunately, Ren Xiaosu still had Old Xu at his disposal. He did not even have to personally be there and Old Xu would guide him accurately on where to drop the TNT.
From the sound of things, it seemed like the combination of Old Xu and the Shadow Door was really quite high tech.
Next to him, P5092 watched quietly as Ren Xiaosu threw out three satchels of TNT one by one. Explosions could be heard in the distance. Then Ren Xiaosu said to him, "Alright, I'll go over and take a look at the situation. Y'all stay here for now."
After that, Yang Xiaojin conjured up her sniper rifle and went off to look for a concealed spot. In an instant, her entire demeanor changed. Just a moment ago, she was just a girl trying to take the opportunity to slack off and catch up on sleep, but she now turned into a capable sniper.
P5092 realized Yang Xiaojin would only completely relax when Ren Xiaosu was around her.
Once Ren Xiaosu left her side, she would immediately put up her guard and no longer trust her surroundings.
Perhaps this was a kind of chemistry. When they were together, she could restrain herself from being too sharp. But when she was alone, she would immediately depend on herself again.
P5092 and Yang Xiaojin were hiding behind a mountain rock when he asked, "Where did Ren Xiaosu go?"
Yang Xiaojin thought for a moment. "To make sure they're dead."
Actually, Yang Xiaojin knew that Ren Xiaosu had gone to collect the axes. However, she could not let P5092 see it.
It was not like this was a big secret. After all, the future commander of the Northwest had just called Wang Shengzhi and exerted his influence in front of P5092.

Now that he went to collect the expeditionary army's axes on the battlefield, it would somehow seem a little degrading for a person of his status.
After a while, Ren Xiaosu's voice crackled in Yang Xiaojin's earpiece. "I'm done. Come over."
After that, Yang Xiaojin led P5092 towards the battlefield. P5092 looked at the corpses of the barbarians on the battlefield and suddenly said, "Judging by the numbers, this was a unit led by one of their regimental commanders. Although it's not a full regiment, all of them actually died here."
"Alright, let's continue advancing. Who knows, we might encounter a second group of victims," Ren Xiaosu said.
For some reason, when P5092 heard Ren Xiaosu describe the expeditionary army's troops as victims again, it felt quite appropriate this time.
But at this moment, P5092 realized something was off. "Wait, don't leave yet."
He knelt down next to the barbarians one by one and took off their helmets and armored masks. "Strange, why aren't they the elderly barbarians anymore?"
Curious, Ren Xiaosu said, "The old barbarians should've all died in the battle with the Pyro Company. Now that they've started a head-on battle with the Wang Consortium's troops, they definitely won't let the old barbarians go into battle."
"I thought so too previously." P5092 said, "But look, their axes are all missing. I suspect this is a trap."
When he said that, Ren Xiaosu's expression became strange.
P5092 had already discovered that the axes were missing during the battle in the northern forest at the Great Wall. But at that time, Ren Xiaosu explained that since the expeditionary army had sent their elderly onto the battlefield, they would definitely not equip them with axes and waste their weapons. That was the explanation for them not bringing any weapons into battle.
So when P5092 realized there was not a single axe on the battlefield here as well, he thought this was another trap set by the barbarians.
He looked up at Ren Xiaosu and said, "We have to tell the Wang Consortium about this quick. It's definitely a trap. If they fall for it like the Pyro Company did, a defeat at the front line of Mt. Daniu will affect the war over at the Great Wall."

"Ahem." Ren Xiaosu hurriedly stopped him. "How can there be so many traps? Let's go. It's more important to join up with the Northwestern troops quickly. Besides, didn't the Wang Consortium just take advantage of the Pyro Company? So what's the point of helping them?"
P5092 shook his head firmly. "No, those are two different matters. As long as we can win the war in the end, we need to let go of what happened in the past."
But when P5092 saw Ren Xiaosu's expression, he started to realize that something was off.
He was a very smart person. As soon as he recalled the "magic" Ren Xiaosu had just performed, he reacted. "You were the one who took away their axes, right? And you were also the one who took away the axes that went missing in the northern forest at the Great Wall!"
So even though this matter was very unbelievable, P5092 could confirm that Ren Xiaosu had a storage space on him where he could put away items.
P5092's mind raced as he started to silently count how many superpowers Ren Xiaosu had.
He already knew about White Mask, AKA "Old Xu."
He was also aware of the black saber that could be conjured.
He had also just seen the long-range dropping of TNT through the Shadow Door.
And now, Ren Xiaosu even had the ability to store items.
P5092 thought for a long time but could not understand why a supernatural being could have so many powers.
Before P5092 could figure it out, he heard the sound of a train coming from nowhere. He also heard a metallic clanging of tracks.
P5092 looked quietly at the black steam locomotive that drove out of thin air. Then he looked at Ren Xiaosu and said, "Is this also your superpower?"
"Don't mind these details." Ren Xiaosu said, "Now that we've confirmed that the Wang Consortium is actively taking on the enemy, we should leave. Our top priority is to join up with the Northwest's infantry brigade!"
"Wait a minute." P5092 suddenly figured out many things. As a high-ranking member of the Pyro Company, he knew the Pyro Company was after a person named Wang Congyang.
Moreover, this wanted person was extremely important. That was because he had the Pyro Company's research data in his hands, and he had also caused a lot of destruction in the Sacred Mountains.
But there were a lot of suspicious points regarding this matter. Wang Congyang had always had a very good reputation and credibility when it came to delivering packages, so why would he suddenly go back on his word and betray them?
Also, the Pyro Company had assessed Wang Congyang's strength before. They felt that even though Wang Congyang was one of the earliest batches of supernatural beings to awaken their superpowers, his actual power was not that dangerous. However, Wang Congyang actually managed to kill so many Pyro Company members back at Stronghold 73!
That was extremely unbelievable!
Even P5092 could not figure out what was going on at that time.
But now that he thought about how Wang Congyang might not be the real Wang Congyang but this future commander from the Northwest, everything made sense.
P5092 looked at Ren Xiaosu strangely. "Were you also there during the Battle of East Lake?"
"Hahahahaha," Ren Xiaosu laughed. "What are you talking about? Why can't I understand you?"
"I'm very sure that you were also there in the Sacred Mountains." P5092 said, "So, while Wang Congyang was only trying to deliver his packages, he ended up becoming the most wanted person by the Pyro Company. That's why the powers you've displayed until now are not your actual powers. Your power should be to copy the powers of others, and it would only make sense if that were the case!"
There was an old saying: "After eliminating all the wrong answers, no matter how unbelievable the final answer might sound, it will be the truth."
Someone had finally solved the mystery of Wang Congyang taking the blame.
