Cao Han didn't just wait idly; instead, he took Lucy Pallas into the armored command vehicle, as he needed her to answer some of his questions.
A warm environment is always more reassuring than the biting cold wind outside. At least when Levi saw Cao Han reappear before him, the fear hidden in his eyes was not so obvious.
When he came to his senses, he was somewhat aware of his current situation.
"It seems you are aware of your situation. Tell me about it."
Cao Han started speaking to himself right away, making it seem to anyone who didn't know them think the two were old friends who hadn't seen each other for many years.
"Say...say what!?"
“Tell me what you know, and what I want to know. If you don’t have a good direction, you can start by talking about who you are, or why you attacked me.”
Even now, he is still a little puzzled as to why the other party would launch a missile attack on a complete stranger from a distance.
To be fair, given the speed and power of those four missiles at the time, it was only because Cao Han had an exceptional sense of danger that he detected them in advance.
Otherwise, it would be a regular mixed-race person...
They were probably pulverized in that missile bombing long ago, and even leaving a whole corpse would be a luxury!
At first, Lucy Pallas didn't have a very direct feeling. She simply obeyed Cao Han's order to get off the train and stay where she was. It wasn't until she was left alone that she felt scared.
Lucy Pallas didn't recognize the specific model of the missile, but even from a distance, she could fully appreciate how astonishing the power of four missiles exploding simultaneously was.
If it weren't for Cao Han... if it hadn't been discovered in advance... if...
Fortunately, life doesn't offer so many "what ifs," and she narrowly escaped danger with Cao Han's help.
Therefore, upon learning that the middle-aged man before him was the culprit, a silent rage began to burn fiercely in his chest, rising and falling with an even more imposing presence.
No man can resist the allure of the "scenery" here.
"Fxxk u!"
According to unscientific statistics, if a person doesn't vent their anger, it greatly increases the likelihood of having a shorter lifespan.
Enraged, Lucy Pallas, seeing Levi completely surrendering, disregarded the "gentle upperclassman" persona she had cultivated in front of her junior and swung her fist hard at that hateful face.
Faced with the attack, Levi, whose hands were not bound, instinctively wanted to make a move, but it was hard to say whether he would choose to block or retaliate.
Before he could even make a move, an astonishing killing intent, as deep as an abyss and as powerful as a waterfall, emanated from the side and completely enveloped him from head to toe.
Every single cell seemed to be telling Levi one thing: He was going to die!
If anyone dares to resist, the other party will not hesitate to kill them.
Levi, a fighter who only talks the talk, couldn't figure out exactly how many people he would have to kill to accumulate such terrifying killing intent, but he knew he absolutely couldn't move at this moment.
He watched helplessly as the fist landed on his right cheek, sending him crashing into the control panel beside him.
Compared to the painless punch, the psychological blow is the greatest.
Levi's mind was filled with a sentence he had once read in an Eastern book: "A true man is born between heaven and earth; how can he live a life of melancholy and subservience to others, especially a woman whose strength is far inferior to his own!"
What a shame! What a shame!
The prerequisite for washing away the shame is that a person is still alive; once dead, everything is truly over.
"Levi Montoya, that's my name."
I'm not afraid of you talking nonsense, I'm just afraid of you not talking at all. Once you start speaking, it's a good thing. Cao Han also agreed and said, "If I'm not mistaken, you should be the manager of this team, right?"
"Yes, I am indeed the captain and commander of this action team."
Once the last psychological defense is broken, there's no point in struggling any longer. Levi didn't lie; he openly admitted it.
Action team?
This name sounds strangely familiar.
Cao Han slapped his forehead, only to realize that he had come from Beowulf, the last action team leader of the Secret Service, before he arrived. It would be strange if he didn't recognize the name.
On second thought, it's not surprising. After all, the Doomsday Faction split off from the Secret Society, so it's only natural that they would inherit some of their habits.
"A doomsday prophet, right?"
"Correct."
"Since you are members of the Doomsday Faction, don't you know that your leader has a past relationship with the principal of our Kassel College, and we are trying to communicate with him?"
"Wait! You said you're from Kassel College?"
Levi's expression changed drastically, filled with disbelief.
Cao Han was actually from Kassel College, a fact that never came to his surprise. As for the fact that Kassel College was trying to communicate with the Doomsday Faction, he was indeed unaware of it.
Before setting off, their team received orders from Elder Andre Lawson, who said that his grandson Julian Lawson had left Nibelungen and might encounter danger, and that they needed to be dispatched to support or rescue him.
Looking back now... the order itself was neither compliant nor reasonable!
This also filled Levi with resentment towards Andre Lawson, who had ordered the entire team to rescue his grandson, and even a subconscious desire to blame him for everything.
Arrogance makes people unable to recognize reality.
The Doomsday Faction, seeking validation from figures like Novsky, underestimated their own strength and the strength of Kassel College.
"Yes, Cao Han, a student from the class of 04."
"Lucy Pallas, a student from the Class of 01."
Seeing that Cao Han had introduced himself, Lucy Pallas followed suit. It's said that a woman three years older than her husband is a lucky charm, but it doesn't necessarily have to be three years older in age; being three years older in year of study is just as good.
"Now that you know our identities, I'd like to know if it was you who attacked our school's special agent team a few days ago?"
"It was us who took action."
Levi thought to himself that at this point, the other party had no reason to lie to him. If the other party really was from Kassel College, then it didn't really matter whether he admitted it or not.
"Then the first generation of the species also made a move, right?" Cao Han asked again. "To be frank, you do have a lot of people and your strength is decent, but you definitely couldn't have subdued Senior Bear and the others so quickly."
The prestige of an A-level top-tier academy speaks for itself.
Only the second-generation Malphite could have taken down the person in such a short time by personally taking action.
"It was indeed Murphy who did it."
When a person dies, it's like a lamp going out; the same goes for a dragon. Since Malphite has already ended his dragon life, Levi doesn't mind throwing more mud at him and shifting the blame onto him as much as possible.
Levi, worried that Cao Han wouldn't believe him, took the initiative to mention the entire process of attacking Novsky and the others that day, including the fact that someone deliberately leaked information to the Doomsday Faction.
Upon hearing this, Lin Yang, who had been silent, subconsciously clenched his fist.
If he hadn't been injured, he probably would have followed Lucy Pallas's example and given her another good cheek a heavy punch.
Andre Lawson, an elder of the Doomsday Faction, was one of the earliest veterans to split from the Secret Party, and his seniority was even greater than that of the current leader, Lu Lincheng.
Through Levi's account, Cao Han and the others realized that the entire plan was likely orchestrated by this Doomsday Elder.
As for the real intention... it's really hard to figure out.
Chapter 170 How could one person cause such a huge mess?
Wait a minute!
"If you truly don't understand the purpose of the attack on our Kassel College personnel, then what about the loot? Who did you ultimately hand over what you obtained?"
Levi shook his head. "We handed the items over after they returned to Nibelungen, and we don't know who ended up with them."
This answer made Cao Han laugh in exasperation.
What kind of people are they? They don't know this or that. They're just a tool trained by the Doomsday Faction, someone who only obeys orders and doesn't ask why!
If Levi isn't lying, then there's not much important information to be gleaned from him.
At most, they only learned about some superficial aspects of the doomsday prophecy; given the leaders' deep cunning and shrewdness, they probably wouldn't be able to access anything deeper.
To put it bluntly, Levi's action team is similar to a general in ancient times, who is only used to lead troops in battle when there is a war.
Captain Dorotheel Reno personally took charge, and with no one wanting to linger in the harsh, icy conditions, efficiency was maximized.
Not long after.
Someone knocked on the car door from the outside.
Upon opening the door, they saw Dorocel Reno standing outside, with the rest of the team behind him. They all crowded around, craning their necks to get a closer look at Cao Han, the academy's unprecedented S+ level student.
These people had all graduated from school and joined the Executive Department. Most of the time, they could only see discussions about Cao Han on the Night Watchers Forum, so it would be a lie to say they weren't curious.
"Commissioner Cao Han, the scene has been cleaned up. Now, what do you think..."
After a moment's thought, Cao Han quickly made arrangements: "Here's what we'll do: a portion of your Renault team will follow the helicopter to the nearest military base, and then follow the corpses all the way back to the school."
The rest of you, get a car and come with me to Yekaterinburg, the nearest city, to continue the mission.
If someone offers you help for free, don't refuse it.
It's impossible for him and his senior to do everything themselves for the upcoming tasks.
For example, if Dorotheel Reynolds' team had been there when they first entered the air-raid shelter to gather intelligence, there would have been no need for the two of them to personally go out.
The method and process are not important, as long as the final result is what he needs.
Upon hearing this, Dorocel Reynolds and his team members behind him all showed eager and expectant eyes. Perhaps for them, being able to carry out a classified mission with an S+ level specialist would be an unprecedented experience.
In the future, when chatting with friends, I can proudly boast: "I've worked on missions with S+ level specialists!"
Then, amidst the admiring glances of his friends and family, he adopted a mysterious expression and casually added, "Due to the mission's confidentiality level, I can't reveal the specific details to you, but I can only say this and that..."
It is unknown how Dorocel Reynolds arranged the assignments, but the team was quickly split in two exactly as Cao Han had instructed.
His reasons left the team members speechless.
Driver's license!
Considering that all these vehicles would eventually have to be driven back, Dorocel Renault simply told those with driver's licenses to stay behind, while those without were to leave with the helicopter.
Many people think that getting a driver's license is as simple as having hands?
In fact, many people don't have it for various reasons.
Faced with such a legitimate and indisputable reason, those members without driver's licenses had no choice but to leave dejectedly, since they themselves hadn't taken the time to get their licenses.
It's worth noting that among the many elective courses offered at Kassel College is an all-terrain vehicle driving course.
From private jets and fighter jets to cars and construction vehicles, and down to aircraft carriers and submarines, the academy has everything. As long as students are willing to learn, the academy can find you the most professional teachers imaginable.
