Apocalypse: My Tattoos are Ten Yama Kings-Chapter 213 - 207: Home Invasion Plan

In his previous life, Lin Yuan struggled bitterly for three years in the world after the eerie invasion.

However, in that world, there was no so-called Nine Cities Plan.

In this life, the core that allows the authorities to execute the Nine Cities Plan is the Guardian Demon Alloy.

The formless Deceitful Charm and Evil Spirits cannot penetrate the Guardian Demon Alloy.

It is precisely because of the existence of the Guardian Demon Alloy that the construction of the Giant City becomes meaningful.

Actually, back then, there was a good opportunity placed in front of the Deceitful King Faction that they did not cherish.

It was only after losing this opportunity that they regretted it immensely.

If only...

The opportunity was when the Xu Family developed the Guardian Demon Alloy and intended to use it to trade for control over a hunting squad from the Deceitful King Faction.

Back then, the decision made by the Deceitful King Faction was to kill the entire Xu Family and forcibly seize the Guardian Demon Alloy.

Unfortunately, they failed.

The only survivor of the Xu Family, Xu Weili, fled with the Guardian Demon Alloy and escaped to Peng City.

Now, with Lin Yuan's protection, they can only dream of getting the Guardian Demon Alloy.

Back then, even though the Deceitful King Faction knew how important this metal that Evil Spirits couldn't penetrate was,

they didn't realize just how crucial the Guardian Demon Alloy was.

If they had foreseen this day back then, they probably would have been willing to hand over not just one hunting squad, but three or five to the Xu Family.

The Guardian Demon Alloy is so important that even ten hunting squads can't compare to it.

"Old Liu, you make it sound so easy to build a city wall by yourself. It's not that simple."

"Seizing is much easier than building!"

"Besides, we don't even have the Guardian Demon Alloy in our hands?"

"A skillful wife can't cook without rice. What are we going to use to build the city without the materials?"

"Do you think Old Liu could just blow out a city with a puff of fairy breath?"

...

...

The heads of major monopolist families present were making sarcastic remarks, clearly not optimistic about Patriarch Liu's plan to build a Giant City.

Purely from the perspective of this plan's difficulty,

the difficulty of constructing a Giant City is evidently much greater than seizing one!

Compared to taking a city, the only advantage of building a Giant City is avoiding a direct conflict with the authorities.

Listening to everyone's sneers at Patriarch Liu, the Ghost Leader slowly said, "Old Liu's method is not entirely impossible."

"If we can figure out how to manufacture the Guardian Demon Alloy in the short term, this method could be an alternative if the city capture attempt fails."

According to the Ghost Leader's words, he intends to make the construction of a Giant City an alternative plan.

That is to say, in his view, the proposal by Patriarch Huang to merge into Demon Dragon City doesn't even qualify as an alternative scenario.

Thinking it through, this makes sense since the Ghost Leader is a person with an extremely strong desire for control.

If he can't wholly dominate the rights over a Giant City, it's more uncomfortable for him than having ants crawling on his body.

When their interception of Yang Dingguo and Lin Yuan failed, the Ghost Leader knew that Ninghai City wouldn't receive a place in the Nine Cities Plan.

It was around that time he began preparing the next step.

However, this plan has been awaiting the right moment for disclosure.

Ninghai City's failure got reported back to Hang City; today was the perfect opportunity for revealing it.

The Ghost Leader called everyone together to voice their opinions freely.

But in reality, it was just a formality.

Unless everyone in the meeting joined forces to strongly oppose,

in the end, the pre-prepared plan would certainly be implemented.

Of course, the Ghost Leader wouldn't present the plan himself.

He had already handed it over to his henchman Zhang Yuandong.

After everyone proposed some immature ideas, Zhang Yuandong introduced a relatively cautious and thorough plan.

Naturally, everyone would end up supporting Zhang Yuandong's proposal.

Seeing the atmosphere was ready, the Ghost Leader gave Zhang Yuandong a look, signaling it was time for him to step up.

Zhang Yuandong, that's the stooge of this meeting.

"Ladies and gentlemen, if we talk about familiarity with Peng City and Lin Yuan, if I claim first place, likely no one would dare claim second!"

"Let me share my thoughts," Zhang Yuandong slowly began.

"My suggestion is still to take Peng City, this Giant City. This Giant City should have belonged to Ninghai City. Now, since it's landed on Peng City, we ought to take back what's ours."

"First infiltrate Peng City's officialdom, then seize it once the Giant City is about to be completed."

As soon as Zhang Yuandong finished speaking, someone stood up to object, "No, Old Zhang!"

"Your method sounds like a fool's dream, doesn't it?"

"Do you really think this is child's play?"

"Is Yang Dingguo of Peng City so easy to deal with?"

"He and Lin Yuan, one civil and one military, are not that easily handled! Even if we are to capture a Giant City, we shouldn't choose the most risky one!"

"Is it because you, Old Zhang, have suffered losses to Lin Yuan several times, that this time you're sneaking in some personal motives, wanting to take this chance to retaliate against Lin Yuan?"

Many people cast skeptical glances at Zhang Yuandong.

After all, in the entire Deceitful King Faction, if anyone suffered the most at Lin Yuan's hands, it certainly would be Zhang Yuandong.

"Bullshit!" Zhang Yuandong cursed, then threw the prepared documents onto the conference table, feigning anger as he said, "I, Old Zhang, am wholeheartedly public-minded with absolutely no personal interests."

"This is my detailed plan; everyone can take a look. After reading my plan, feel free to speak your minds."

Concerning this plan, Zhang Yuandong had full confidence.

He believed that once the people present saw these plans, the majority would support him.

Because this detailed plan wasn't even prepared by him.

Instead, it was a comprehensive plan meticulously designed and prepared by the Ghost Leader.

When Zhang Yuandong first saw this detailed plan, he too was quite taken aback.

The core of the plan is infiltration.

Plant members of the Deceitful King Faction into Peng City's official organization, then slowly take control of the political sphere of Peng City from within.

However, the place of Peng City has been managed by Yang Dingguo like a steel drum.

Never mind infiltrating Peng City's official organization, even strangers coming into Peng City are scrutinized thoroughly.

Thus, to execute the infiltration plan, there needs to be a rational reason to arrive at Peng City.

Moreover, there need to be large groups entering Peng City so that members of the Deceitful King Faction mingled among the crowd won't attract attention.

The key to the plan is to lure Evil Spirits to attack relatively weaker city human sanctuaries near Peng City.

Once these sanctuaries are destroyed, the survivors of these cities will have nowhere to go.

By then, their only option will be to turn to Peng City; with a large number of people seeking refuge in a short time, Yang Dingguo will surely be overwhelmed.

This way, members of the Deceitful King Faction can blend into the crowds and enter Peng City openly.

Moreover, the rapid population increase would lead official organizations to expand quickly, thus providing opportunities for Deceitful King Faction to infiltrate Peng City.

This plan is akin to putting a bra on a little pig—layer upon layer!

After everyone had finished reading the detailed plan, the Ghost Leader was the first to speak, "Everyone has seen Old Zhang's plan, right?"

"I think the feasibility of this plan is very high. Moreover, Peng City is already one of our targets."

"Next, I plan to withdraw all forces from other cities and focus entirely on taking Peng City."

With the Ghost Leader's support, others started to voice their opinions too.

"Old Zhang's plan isn't bad, I support it."

"Indeed, it seems like a good idea."

"This plan seems to have a high success rate; I have no objections."

...

...

Everyone expressed their stance; except for the two or three conservatives remaining silent, the others all showed their support.

Even Patriarch Li, who usually stands against Zhang Yuandong, showed support this time.

While Patriarch Liu's eyes were darting around, he also expressed his support.

Although he verbally agreed with Zhang Yuandong's plan, in fact, Patriarch Liu intended to use this plan to obtain the Guardian Demon Alloy.

After acquiring the Xu Family's research data, Peng City's laboratory is the most advanced in the research of the Guardian Demon Alloy.

At the meeting, the monopoly forces nearly unanimously passed the infiltration plan for Peng City.

Meanwhile, Lin Yuan had just arrived at Lian City, preparing to find a way to control the demon ape.

Unbeknownst to him, the damn Deceitful King Faction is once again starting to mess around.
