The Hidden Front's leader's body shook slightly. The Hidden Front's unique black outfit automatically tore apart, revealing a light grey suit and a blue-black tie. This outfit was exactly the same as Wen Yang's.
Ding Meng and Wen Yang's hearts sank at the same time.
The Hidden Front's leader took off the mask on his face. At the same time, he gently wiped his face with his hand. A handsome, elegant, and dignified face was exposed in the air.
A huge shadow swept over. Wen Yang felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. The Hidden Front's leader's real face was Wen Yang's face. It was exactly the same. There were no flaws or differences at all.
At this moment, Ding Meng finally knew what the other party was planning. They were trying to impersonate the Princeps. The key was that the impersonation was flawless. Ding Meng also finally understood why he had such a strange feeling when he saw the Princeps at the spaceport. He felt that this person was very friendly, but also very dangerous.
Because Wen Yang was the Hidden Front's leader. The Hidden Front's leader was Wen Yang.
At this moment, the Hidden Front's leader's voice had become like Wen Yang's. It was warm and magnetic. "I am the Princeps of the Norse Empire."
It was as if the people around him were under a spell. They all stood still and their silent expressions seemed to agree with what he said.
Ding Meng suddenly calmed down. "This is not your real face either."
He was the only one present who could recognize it because he realized that the Hidden Front's leader's invisibility treasure had not disappeared. It had only changed his face and body to look exactly like Wen Yang.
The Hidden Front's leader was still the leader of the Hidden Front, who was full of foresight and talent.
The Hidden Front's leader suddenly laughed. "So what if it's my real face?
What is true is false, what is false is true, what is true is false. Why do you have to be so serious about it? Life is like that. If you don't understand this principle, you will end up like the head of state. "
Ding Meng suddenly cupped his hands and said, "I'm impressed!"
The leader of the Hidden Front smiled even more happily. "It's an honor to be praised by Mr Ting."
"I don't dare!"
Ding Meng secretly activated the Origin. He saw that Officer No.2 was already standing behind the Hidden Front Boss out of habit.
From the beginning until now, this was the only core member of the Hidden Front that Ding Meng had never seen in person. He had a strong premonition that this person was probably the most dangerous one among the Hidden Front mercenaries.
The Hidden Front boss said again, "Mr. Ting!"
Ding Meng said, "Please speak!"
The Hidden Front boss said, "Honestly speaking, do you think I'm the head of state of the Norse Empire?"
Ding Meng was silent for a moment, then said, "Looking at the current situation, objectively speaking … you are!"
The Hidden Front boss revealed a cruel smile. "The person on the ground, is he the leader of the Hidden Front?"
He was obviously referring to Wen Yang, but this time, Ding Meng answered without hesitation, "Yes!"
The Hidden Front boss then looked at Wen Yang and said meaningfully, "See?
This is the difference between you and him. He can see the reality clearly, but you can't. "
Wen Yang was speechless because he had nothing to say. This time, he had lost. He had not only lost his life, but also his everything, including the future of the Norse Empire.
Ding Meng sighed and said, "The head of state of the Norse Empire went on a private expedition to the Fertile Chalk Star System and dealt with the Hidden Front organization. In a while, he led his staff back to the spaceport and returned triumphantly. Nothing seemed to have changed. It was very smooth, very normal, and very glorious."
The Hidden Front boss smiled and said, "This is actually a very good opportunity for you."
Ding Meng asked, "What opportunity?"
The Hidden Front boss said, "You can choose to stay here or come with me. It's up to you, and this choice shouldn't be difficult for you."
Ding Meng smiled. "I said before that I'm afraid of working with someone like you."
The Hidden Front boss also smiled. "That's only temporary. You'll soon know what kind of person I am. When the time comes, not only will you not be afraid, you'll even be proud."
Ding Meng said, "What if I choose to stay?"
The Hidden Front boss smiled and said, "But you'll return to the Norse Empire sooner or later and choose to work with me."
Ding Meng asked curiously, "Oh?"
The Hidden Front boss said, "Because you have no other choice. The Holy Grail Federation is looking for you all over the world. You're a Class-A criminal."
"Yes!" Ding Meng did not deny it.
The Hidden Front boss continued, "Very soon, the Norse Empire will also put you on the wanted list because you're a member of the Hidden Front. Following your boss around the Fertile Chalk Star System to commit crimes, you'll become the target of everyone in the Norse Empire."
Ding Meng said, "I don't mind!"
The Hidden Front boss revealed his cruel smile again. "You don't mind, but what about your friends?
What about your family?
What will happen to them?
Miss Yu Man and her father might be implicated by you. Your good friend, Miss Qu, might be very disappointed in you. She will soon marry Roger and become part of a wealthy family. The next time she sees you, she might command her fleet to kill you. "
Ding Meng's face darkened.
The Hidden Front boss said, "You can't return to the Holy Grail Federation, and there's no place for you in the Norse Empire. Will you stay in the Fertile Chalk Star System?
Or will you go to the Devouring World and seek refuge with the Immortal Yuan Queen?
If you really meet up with the Immortal Yuan Queen, you'll become the public enemy of the entire human world. You'll never have a day of peace. "
Ding Meng's palms were sweating. He suddenly realized that the Hidden Front boss thought about things more thoroughly than he did. The world was so big, but there was no place for him.
The Hidden Front boss said, "Perhaps there's another place that can take you in."
"What place?" Ding Meng was curious.
The Hidden Front boss laughed. "The Fifth Lord. With his foresight and courage, you'll definitely be put in an important position. However, I know that you'll never go there. So, you'll eventually come to me when you have nowhere else to go."
Ding Meng sighed. "Maybe!"
The Hidden Front boss shook his head. "This is not a maybe, it's a certainty. Before I leave, I'll leave you with one last thing. My door will always be open for you. You're welcome to come to my place anytime. As long as you're willing to come, you'll be my friend, my brother, and my most esteemed guest."
"You're not going to kill me?" Ding Meng asked.
The Hidden Front boss said, "Miss Guan should have told you that my greatest strength is knowing how to use people well. You're a talent, so why should I destroy a talent like you?
I won't do such an unwise thing. "
Ding Meng once again gained a new understanding of this person. This person was really strong. He was strong in terms of his brain and intelligence, his foresight and his bearing. These were not things that martial arts could compare to. Moreover, his martial arts were not weak either.
"As for you …" The Hidden Front boss glanced at Wen Yang, who was lying on the ground. "You'll repent in pain for the rest of your life!"
After saying this, he turned around and left. The others followed behind him and left one by one.
The island in the middle of the lake was only left with wreckage and six badly mutilated corpses. There were no flashes of swords, no rain of blood, and no massacre. The outcome of this battle was decided just like that.
The wind blew across the sky, and the waterfall surged again. The lake was slowly filled up, and waves of mist rose from the surface of the lake.
The damp mist hit Ding Meng and Wen Yang's faces. Their minds seemed to clear up a lot, but neither of them knew what the other was thinking.
There was a roar in the distance, and balls of light shot up into the sky. Those were the military's more than 50 Songqing spaceships taking off. The new head of state was leading his team back in triumph.
Looking at this familiar scene, Wen Yang finally spoke. "Why did you choose to stay?"
Ding Meng said, "Maybe it's because we're the same kind of people."
Wen Yang asked in return, "Martial artists of Divine Light?"
Ding Meng nodded.
Wen Yang smiled bitterly. "So what if I'm a martial artist of Divine Light?
In this world, there's probably only one kind of energy that can be called true power, and that's power! "
Ding Meng understood how he felt. A person who had fallen from a pedestal was a blow and a setback that not everyone could bear. At least, Wen Yang could still smile.
Suddenly, there was a slight fluctuation of energy in the distance. Another motorcycle flew over from the cliff. Ding Meng was surprised when he took a closer look. There was a dying person lying on the motorcycle. This person was Han Yan.
As soon as the motorcycle landed, Han Yan, who was covered in blood, rushed over while clutching her stomach.
The moment she saw Wen Yang, Han Yan was pleasantly surprised. "Sir, I knew it was you. I didn't expect you to still be alive."
She ignored her injuries and ran over to help Wen Yang.
Wen Yang was also surprised. "Why didn't you leave?"
Han Yan gritted her teeth and said, "That person is an imposter."
This time, even Ding Meng was surprised. "Even I couldn't tell. How did you know?"
Han Yan blushed. "My sense of smell has been extraordinary since I was a child. I've been able to smell your scent almost every day for the past seven years. I've already memorized it. When that person came back, I knew something was wrong with him."
From the first day she entered the Chancellor's office in the Empire State Building, she fell in love with this charming man at first sight. Although she knew that the Chancellor was married, she couldn't stop herself from falling in love with him.
Yes, there was nothing wrong with loving someone deeply. How could Wen Yang not feel it?
However, he was the Chancellor. His every word and action represented the Norse Empire. He couldn't accept it, but he couldn't stop it either.
Wen Yang suddenly raised one hand and spat out a white mist toward Han Yan. The wound on Han Yan's stomach healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Han Yan's beautiful eyes turned red. "Sir, you're injured so badly, but you're giving your precious healing energy to me?"
Wen Yang sighed. "It's been hard on you, Yan."
This was the first time he had called her that. Han Yan almost cried.
Ding Meng suddenly asked, "Where's Mr. Han?"
Han Yan's eyes turned even redder. "Brother Ling was executed by that fake Chancellor."
Ding Meng nodded. "As expected."
Wen Yang looked at her. "But you survived?"
Han Yan smiled bitterly and shook her head. "The commanding officer of the 05 Division was my classmate. He only cut me once and didn't hit any vital parts. They all thought I was dead."
Wen Yang sighed. "That's a blessing in disguise."
Han Yan looked up at him. "Sir, didn't you survive as well?"
Wen Yang smiled bitterly. "Do you really think the Hidden Front spared my life?"
Han Yan was stunned. "Isn't it?"
