Chapter 1 My Intuition Never Lies

Hearing Li Tianran’s words, the expression on the Hurricane Apostle’s face was quite intriguing. It slowly placed the water-blue crystal in its hand on the nearby stone platform, looked up at the mecha warrior standing in front of it, and calmly asked, “You suspect me?”

“Suspect you?” Li Tianran’s voice came from inside the mecha warrior, sounding slightly amused, “No, no, no, I don’t suspect you, because…”

“I never trusted you.”

Li Tianran’s voice echoed in the underground cave. “From the moment you first offered to join me, I felt that something was very wrong with you.”

“Although I couldn’t find a reason, my intuition told me that there was a problem.”

“Only now am I completely certain that you didn’t sincerely want to join me to survive, but rather you were lurking on Hurricane Island, waiting for an opportunity to mess up my internal affairs for the ancient civilization!”

The Hurricane Apostle was silent for a few seconds after hearing this, then burst into laughter. “How ridiculous.”

“If I was acting for you… then was the other three apostles’ pursuit of me too real? Yesterday, I almost died at their hands. Was that also acting?”

Inside the command module, Li Tianran stroked his eyebrows and responded softly:

“That’s exactly what’s most wrong. Based on my understanding of the apostles’ combat power, except for the Earth Apostle, the combat power of your other apostles is mostly at the same level. If three apostles simultaneously attack one apostle, then the attacked apostle would have absolutely no chance of escape, but you managed to escape.”

“Although you looked like you were badly attacked, as a second-stage evolved creature, as long as the life flaw isn’t destroyed, you can regenerate without limit…”

“Moreover, in that great battle, the Earth Apostle, who attacked you last, seemed to have been lurking in the sea for a long time. Based on my understanding of it, it’s a very slow creature, definitely not faster than the Star or Ocean Apostles, so it’s unreasonable for it to appear in that sea area earlier than you!”

Li Tianran softly explained his views. Seeing that the Hurricane Apostle didn’t speak, he continued, “And today, what happened at this supply storage point is even more wrong.”

“Such an important location. After the apostles knew it might be leaked, they didn’t send a large number of guards to defend it. Instead, only one Star Apostle appeared, and its resistance seemed so weak and feeble. It looked like it was actively handing over this supply storage point to me!”

“Although the resources in this storage point are very attractive to me, I’m not so ecstatic that I’ve lost my mind…”

Li Tianran looked at the Hurricane Apostle through the mecha warrior’s electronic eyes and said, word by word, “Everything is too smooth, too logical! In my long dealings with the ancient civilization, I believe that, based on the strength they’ve shown, everything shouldn’t be so smooth, and there should be no difficulty in obtaining these resources!”

“The reason for this result can only be that the ancient civilization really has no power to resist me, or…”

“This is a script that was planned from the start.”

Li Tianran took a deep breath. “I guess, if this is a script, then what you want is… to use these resources to gain my trust, to make you a nail buried by the ancient civilization inside Hurricane Island, to obtain more authority within Hurricane Island, so that you can play a key role in future wars, swaying the victory or defeat of a crucial battle!”
