Chapter 1036: Special Technique

"Very well, I'm now offering you a chance to make a choice: either follow the lead of our Glorious Battle Team and sweep across this entire island battlefield, or continue to be our adversaries. Make your decision."

In reality, these individuals had no opportunity for a second choice. Having already been defeated by Xu Yang's Glorious Battle Team and becoming their captives, how could they possibly choose to remain enemies?

Moreover, Broken Sword had already abandoned them. Continuing to resist would be meaningless for them.

For top-tier experts of their caliber, a meaningless death was the most foolish act.

"Of course, we choose to pledge allegiance to Sir Xu Yang. We've witnessed the strength of your Glorious Battle Team; you are all superior to us. Even if we continue to oppose you, what would we gain? A wretch like Broken Sword isn't worth dying for."

Xu Yang nodded slightly. "From now on, you will be the core of Glorious Battle Team Two. Once we complete this island-wide sweep, all resources on this island will belong to you. Your only requirement is to directly follow the commands of our seven core members of the Glorious Battle Team."

Black Face and the others were astonished that Xu Yang not only accepted them but also bestowed such great honor and trust upon them.

A pure radiance shone in everyone's eyes, a genuine expression of gratitude stemming from being trusted and given important roles.

"Thank you, Sir, for overlooking our past and accepting us, and for creating such excellent training conditions. We swear to repay this kindness with our lives."

Hearing their declaration, Guglas, who was standing nearby, heartily patted his belly and burst into laughter.

"There's no need to swear to die. With our boss around, it would be hard for you to even die if you wanted to. Tell us about any other arrangements or defenses on the island."

Xu Yang quickly shook his head, interrupting Guglas.

"There's no need for that. I've already sent Swirling Wulong to follow Broken Sword into the island's interior. Broken Sword chose to betray the entire island organization to secure his survival, which works perfectly for us. He won't be able to betray us in this situation."

Xu Yang had already firmly grasped the situation. With him in control, someone of Broken Sword's intelligence wouldn't be able to gain any advantage. In fact, at that very moment, Swirling Wulong, guided by Broken Sword, had arrived at the perimeter of the central plaza of the island base. From their crouching position at the edge of the jungle, they could see the location of the joint headquarters of the island's three major powers.

Broken Sword shared the complete map of the base's power distribution with Swirling Wulong using spiritual energy, and Swirling Wulong, in turn, transmitted it all to Xu Yang and his team without any reservation.

Soon after, Xu Yang arrived with the main force of the Glorious Battle Team at the edge of the jungle, where he met up with Swirling Wulong. Notably, to avoid any awkwardness, Xu Yang did not bring the top experts from Glorious Battle Team Two, preventing an uncomfortable encounter between them and their former captain, Broken Sword.

"Sir A-Yang, that building ahead is where all the top experts on the island are hiding. If we can infiltrate it, we can certainly capture all of them."

Xu Yang nodded in satisfaction. "You've done well, my friend. I promise not to act against you after this battle ends."

Broken Sword looked as though he had received a great pardon, bowing deeply and clasping his fists repeatedly towards Xu Yang, almost kowtowing to him.

It was precisely at this moment that a new batch of scouts from the island base began their rotation. Over a dozen scout experts replaced the previous surveillance team, quickly dispersing to several secret strongholds in the vicinity.

The island base's outer surveillance network was extremely dense; it was no exaggeration to say there was a guard every five steps and a sentry every ten.

Scout experts served as informants everywhere, and there were also hidden strongholds concealed within.

Now, with all the information leaked to Xu Yang and his team by Broken Sword, it was not difficult for Xu Yang to devise a perfect strategy for their next move.

As expected, under his command, the seven core members of the Glorious Battle Team, along with Swirling Wulong, their unofficial core member, acted simultaneously. Xu Yang himself, led by Broken Sword, strode confidently towards the center of the base.

Little did they know, Xu Yang had completely transformed into the likeness of the Evil God of the South Sea.

This disguise technique was something Xu Yang had independently developed during his time in Qizhou.

He rarely used it under normal circumstances, but this time, he felt it necessary to employ this top-tier ability. Such a high-level disguise method was entirely unknown within the system of the entire Yingzhou Continent.

Consequently, when Xu Yang demonstrated this technique, it utterly stunned everyone in the Glorious Battle Team except for Ling Yao.

"My goodness, Boss, you actually possess such an incredible skill! How is it possible for a living person to transform so easily into someone else? I want to learn this skill too, Boss!"

After witnessing Xu Yang's method, Guglas and the others all wore expressions of intense longing. However, Xu Yang merely gave a cold chuckle and swept his gaze over the eager group.

"Now is not the time to be thinking about such unconventional techniques. First, thoroughly master your own cultivation foundations before making demands of me. Haven't I already assigned your tasks? What are you hesitating for? Act quickly!"

Xu Yang urged them, but he was met with unanimous jeers from the other five members of the Glorious Battle Team. Clearly, everyone was extremely interested in Xu Yang's almost heaven-defying special cultivation technique.

However, it appeared Xu Yang had no intention of teaching this technique to anyone at the moment.

Xu Yang didn't explain it, so the others didn't understand.

While this disguise technique seemed simple, its execution involved a rather complex process. A slight misstep could result in a significant deviation from the intended appearance, revealing their true identity at a crucial moment.

More importantly, if this disguise technique was practiced to the point of qi deviation and chaotic meridians, it could genuinely alter one's physical appearance.

For someone as beauty-conscious as Lady Jessica, if practicing such a technique went awry and transformed her exquisite face into something hideous, how could she possibly continue to live?
