Monster Master: Evidence of the Way

Chapter 266 Falling into the Hands of Thieves

Under Huo Du's suggestion, Yi Yin finally decided to join forces with him.

There was no way out. Yi Yin was now in a difficult situation. If he didn't resolve this incident, he might not be able to return to the Cross Base.

Fortunately, Huo Du seemed to have a clear understanding of Sharu. He followed Huo Du and avoided the dwarf's attack.

"But is this really a good idea?"

Yiyin recalled his previous experience in Sharu. "The dwarves are very cunning. They should have expected that someone would operate underground like us. It would be terrible if they found us."

"I've considered that. The dwarves probably didn't intend to kill all of Cell's humans; they were just venting their anger. Otherwise, they would have already started."

Huo Du seemed very confident. "Besides, dwarves are not united by nature. After Nini Kral's death, the dwarves dispersed into several teams, and some even acted alone. As long as I encounter dwarves who don't appear in a group, I can deal with them."

During the conversation, Huo Du and Yi Yin turned left and right and came to an exit.

"If we go up, we can get back to the surface. We can't keep hiding like this. We should find the weapon quickly and use the opportunity to negotiate with them."

"That's easy to say. But how can it be that simple?"

Yi Yin smiled bitterly and said, "Perhaps there is a dwarf outside right now, waiting for us to fall into its trap."

As he was speaking, the manhole cover suddenly fell off, and a fully armed dwarf jumped in without any warning.

This dwarf and Yiyin were old acquaintances, but even so, he did not let his guard down.

"Captain Em."

Yiyin recognized Em at a glance. It seemed that after Nini Kral's death, Em had become a leader among the dwarfs.

"How could this be such a coincidence? Have you been spying on us? Or..."

Yi Yin secretly looked at Huo Du. He even began to think that Huo Du had betrayed him, or that Huo Du was not actually himself, but a monster in disguise.

"Do you want to know why? Hehehe..."

Em laughed strangely. "You're the only one to blame! You're so stupid! You completely believed Liser's nonsense. Back when we dwarves were still enslaved by humans, Liser planted tens of thousands of tiny bee eyes in Sharu. They were all made by our great dwarf craftsmen, and they are so small that they are almost invisible. Liser used them to monitor Sharu's every move."

"In order to prevent Cell's 'secret' from being known to outsiders, he deliberately didn't tell you this. After Lissel's downfall, we legitimately took over these micro-bee eyes. What do you think? You still don't know that your whereabouts have been exposed long ago, right? Hehehe..."

After saying that, Em burst into laughter.

Iin had never imagined that Cell would be so strict in supervising people, surely to prevent Cell's scandal from being exposed. But now, Lord Liser's meticulousness had ruined him.

This is really funny.

"Miscalculation..."

Huo Du gritted his teeth. He didn't expect that his plan was exposed under the enemy's nose from the very beginning. There was no way it would succeed!

"In that case, why did you wait until now to take action?"

Huo Du remained unafraid and continued to ask, "Could it be that this is to lure Yi Yin out?"

"I don't know about that. You'll have to ask 'that master'. I'm only responsible for bringing you to 'that master'."

As he said that, Em smiled evilly and walked towards them.

If I get caught by Em here, it will be all over.

Huo Du decided to fight back. If the opponent was a dwarf, he might not have no chance of winning.

So, Huo Du took out his monster card and summoned his D-level monster Dodo from it.

"So what if he's a Monster Master? Any resistance is futile against our sophisticated weapons!"

Em seemed to have guessed that Huo Du would be desperate, so he took out the weapon he had prepared in advance - the Heart of the Titan.

"Oh my god, it's the heart of an S-rank monster, the Titan Titan—the Titan Heart! It can freely control monsters below B rank!"

Yiyin saw at a glance that the weapon in Em's hand was extraordinary. If it was really the Heart of the Titan, it could control the Dodo Bird. That would be terrible.

"Hmph, you're quite discerning. If Nini Kral had seen you in Augustus, he might not have... Well, anyway, while this isn't a true Titan's Heart, it has almost the same effects as a true Titan's Heart. Controlling a D-rank monster should be pretty easy."

As he spoke, Em raised the Heart of Titan in his hand. The Dodo wailed and then crashed into Huo Du uncontrollably.

"Danger!"

At the critical moment, Yiyin shouted and threw the green-haired turtle on his head away.

The green-haired turtle is now an A-level monster, and the Heart of the Titan can't do anything to it!

The green-haired turtle knocked the dodo to the ground with a simple, ordinary collision. The dodo's eyes turned white, and it seemed that it had been hit hard.

Given the absolute numerical gap, the Dodo, a D-level monster with only basic combat capabilities, is simply unable to compete.

"Well, Em, my green-haired turtle won't let you control me!"

Yi Yin pointed at Em proudly, "No matter how agile you dwarves are, you're no match for humans in terms of strength! Otherwise, you wouldn't have been defeated by us before!"

"Hehehe..."

Hearing this, Em said sarcastically, "Indeed, when it comes to using cunning and insidious tactics, we dwarves are no match for you humans! If it weren't for this, we wouldn't have been lured into the giants' mouths with your rainbow grass in ancient times... But ironically, after all these years, we dwarves are still forced to cooperate with the giants... It's all thanks to you!"

After hearing what Em said, Yiyin felt a wave of uneasiness in his heart.

He had clearly pushed Em to the brink of despair, so why was he still so relaxed? Did he have a backup plan?

While thinking, Yiyin heard the sound of electricity ticking, and then he fell to the ground uncontrollably.

The same thing happened to Huo Du next to Yi Yin, he was not spared at all!

"Hehehe... Even if we can't control these monsters, then we can start with the masters and sever the mental connection between you. Then the monsters won't be able to fight, right? Eighty percent of the weapons on Blue Planet come from Cell, and ninety-nine percent of Cell's weapons are made by us dwarves. So it's natural that you don't know what weapons there are..."

Aim said something else next, but Yiyin could no longer hear it. He only felt his eyelids getting heavier and heavier, until he fell completely to the ground.
