The Invincible Mercenary King (by Matt Watt) novel Chapter 678

Chapter 678 

Gathering information?” 

When Blake and Katelyn heard this, they were stunned, and their expressions became extremely puzzled. 

That’s right. He’s gathering information.” 

Zachary immediately grasped the key to the situation and spoke in a deep voice, “Nightfiend Dernigod is a master of inutation. During our fight carlier, he didn’t exert his full power. Instead, he was constantly imitating my movements and combat style. 

“Even when he targeted you, he was secretly observing your swordsmanship. 

If my speculation is correct, he is likely to use the skills of one of us to deceive and manipulate others.” 

Hearing this, Katelyn came to a realization. 

She finally realized why Nightfiend Demigod didn’t kill her. It turned out that he was gathering information, observing her, and he might even impersonate her in the future. 

At the thought of this, her expression suddenly changed. 

Facing a formidable opponent like Nightfiend Demigod with his exceptional imitation ability and god–class strength, it would indeed be extremely difficult to defend against him if he were to impersonate the three members of the Dragon Team in other locations. 

“Captain, what should we do now?” Blake asked. 

Zachary’s face grew solemn. He fell into deep thought and remained silent. 

In the face of such a skilled expert, he truly felt defenseless. 

In fact, he didn’t even possess the ability to take precautions and prevent Nightfiend Demigod’s actions. 

Nightfiend Demigod’s ability to imitate him accurately, despite never having met before. It could only mean that when they arrived at King’s Platform, they had already entered Nightfiend Demigod’s field of vision and were being observed and imitated. 

Moreover, if they could anticipate Nightfiend Demigod’s imitation, it was likely that he could anticipate their anticipation, using it as a means to distract their attention. 

Most importantly, if Nightfiend Demigod could impersonate them, he could impersonate anyone. 

If he were to impersonate Steve… 

With this thought, Zachary’s heart sank deep into the abyss. 

If Nightfiend Demigod impersonated Steve, he would really be able to do whatever he wanted! 

Zachary immediately took out his phone and prepared to call Steve. 

Dialing… Dialing… 

Just then, the sound of hurried footsteps approached, and a middle–aged man led a fully armed force rushing towards Zachary and the others, appearing right before them. 

“Reuben, you’ve arrived just in time!” 

When Zachary saw the middle–aged man, he immediately put away his phone and waved at the middle–aged man. He said in a deep voice, “You’re the supervisor here, right? I need your help now.” 

Upon seeing the bombs on the ground, Reuben’s expression changed slightly. His mind raced, and he immediately understood what was going on. He quickly responded with respect, “Please speak, Mr. Tyler 

“I need you to provide me with all the information and details about everyone involved in the construction of the King’s Platform, from the highest level to the lowest,” Zachary commanded. 

“This… Reuben’s expression changed. 

The construction of the King’s Platform was a massive project that had been underway for nearly half a year, involving many people from various backgrounds. 

Gathering information on all of them would be an enormous task. 

“Why do you need to do this, Mr. Tyler?” Reuben asked. 

Zachary glanced at everyone present and motioned for Reuben to come closer. “Let’s have a private conversation.” 

With that, he walked to the side and lit a cigarette. 

Reuben immediately understood what was going on and dismissed his subordinates, instructing them to wait at a distance.

He approached Zachary cautiously and asked, “Mr. Tyler, is there an invading enemy force?” 

Zachary took a drag from his cigarette, nodded, and pointed to the bombs, saying in a grave tone, “Our Dragon Team received recent intelligence about a god–class expert infiltrating with the intention to disrupt the King–Conferring Ceremony 

We came here to investigate, and not long after our search began, we discovered over forty C4 bombs in the underground 

third level.” 

“What?” 

Upon hearing this, Reuben involuntarily gasped, and his expression turned extremely grim. 

As the supervisor of this place, he had failed to detect the presence of so many C4 bombs being planted. If this news reached Steve’s cars, his position and even his life would be at stake. 

The thought sent a shiver down his spine, and his pupils constricted in fear as he looked at the bombs. 

Zachary pulled out a cigarette, placed it in Reuben’s mouth, and lit it for him. He then spoke in a deep voice, “A god–class expert has infiltrated this place, and the situation is critical. Our Dragon Team needs the information of all personnel for investigation. Can you gather all the data within two hours?” 

Nightfiend Demigod was skilled at imitation and transfiguration. Anyone involved in the construction of the King’s Platform could have been a potential target for Nightfiend Demigod’s impersonation. He wanted to review the information of every person. 

“Two hours? That’s a little difficult, Mr. Tyler.” 

“If you can gather everyone’s information and send it to me in two hours, I can plead with Steve to save your position.
