Xiao Wei then asked, "Can you confirm how many enemies there are?"
Wang Chao thought for a moment and replied, "I can't be sure, but from what I've seen, no, actually, there's one person I haven't seen at all. One is called Eagle Eye, who excels with a Sniper Rifle. The other is a long-haired man in white clothing, wielding a sword. Eagle Eye is at the Silver Lower Tier, while the White-Clad Man is Silver Mid-Tier. Although he managed to block my strike, his overall strength isn't high; however, he must have considerable skill in swordsmanship. There's another person whose voice I only heard. This person likely specializes in stealth; otherwise, I should have sensed him at such close range."
"Mm." Xiao Wei nodded and said, "If that's the case, his level should be at Silver Mid-Tier."
"How do you know?" Wang Chao couldn't help but ask. "If his strength is below mine, I should be able to feel his presence."
Xiao Wei explained, "Think about it. Initially, there were three of them and one of us with a wolf. One of them was Silver Mid-Tier and another was Silver Lower Tier. If the hidden person had strength above Silver Upper Tier, they would definitely have attacked! After all, they are die-hard followers of Huangfu Yan. If they had the chance, they would fight to kill you. But they didn't do that, which means even if they fought to the death, they didn't have more than a fifty percent chance of killing you..."
Wang Chao nodded; he indeed heard the voice of the person hiding in the shadows: "Retreat; we are not their match."
Xiao Wei scratched his head and said, "This indicates that although his strength may not be as strong as yours, he possesses skills to conceal himself." At this point, Xiao Wei furrowed his brow and rubbed his temples before continuing, "If that's the case, it shows that Huangfu Yan's subordinates are not to be underestimated. Before the Zombie outbreak, they were already top-tier experts! However, does anyone here know about these individuals? Otherwise, we will be at a disadvantage!"
At this moment, Shen Zhitao cleared his throat and said, "I believe these people are Huangfu Yan's Elite Eighteen."
"Elite Eighteen?" Xiao Wei asked in confusion.
"Yes," Shen Zhitao replied. "As a member of the Seven Great Families, I naturally have some understanding of these matters. Back when Huangfu Yan was not yet a commander and participated in international battles, he gathered many skilled individuals from various backgrounds during the war. They were known as the Huangfu Army and swept through the battlefield, establishing China's position internationally. By the time they returned home, only about twenty or thirty remained from that formidable Huangfu Army. When Huangfu Yan became commander, only eighteen of them were left."
"So they are referred to as Huangfu Family's Elite Eighteen?" Xiao Wei asked.
Shen Zhitao nodded.
Xiao Wei asked again, "So do you know what abilities they have?"
This time, Shen Zhitao shook his head and replied, "I don't know about that. They are too mysterious; I've only heard rumors. Previously, the situation both domestically and internationally was quite favorable, and they hadn't made a move in a long time. If it weren't for this crisis, they wouldn't have surfaced. However, I didn't expect Huangfu Yan to send three people to deal with Wang Chao alone..."
Wang Chao said, "This is no longer Huangfu Family's world. Their strength isn't that high; we can handle them easily. What are the Elite Eighteen? Back in the capital, I already dealt with one called Mountain Gale..." At this point, Yiyi and Wu Wan'er nodded in agreement; they couldn't agree more.
Xiao Wei shook his head and said, "No, I think the people they sent this time might be three to five in number. It can't just be those three; there should be at least four of them, and the others should be quite strong—at least Silver Upper Tier, like you. This can be inferred from what they said during their retreat. Even if they underestimated your strength, they wouldn't send someone of Silver Mid-Tier to kill you unless they thought you were a lone ranger without friends, which is clearly impossible."
"So I believe there should be three to five of them, with Eagle Eye at Silver Lower Tier, White-Clad Man, Lurker, and one more person likely at Silver Mid-Tier. The last one would be Silver Upper Tier. This way, they can hold us back while also being able to kill you." Then Xiao Wei stated firmly, "Yes, that should be correct. We just don't know what abilities they possess; otherwise, we could target their weaknesses."
Wang Chao agreed with Xiao Wei's analysis. He frowned and said, "They won't directly attack the Safe Zone, right? What if they don't show up?"
Xiao Wei gently tapped his head and continued from Wang Chao's line of thought, "That shouldn't happen. No matter how powerful they are, they wouldn't dare to risk attacking thousands of people in the Safe Zone. Moreover, once they figure out your position, they'll be even more cautious. So even if they want to come to the Safe Zone to kill someone, it would only be after understanding your routine. As long as we stay vigilant, they'll have no way to deal with us."
At that moment, Da Qiang spoke up: "Then how about we go outside to find them? Their strength is actually not as good as ours. Brother Wang is at Silver Upper Tier level; Tang Feng and I are at Mid-Tier; Shen Zhiying is at Lower Tier; and Shen Zhitao will definitely break into Silver after absorbing a hundred Brass Crystals. Plus Little Wolf—how can we not have the upper hand?"
"No," Xiao Wei countered. "Right now it's them in the dark and us in the light. If we rashly go out, we'll be at a disadvantage. On the contrary, if they come to the Safe Zone, we'll have the advantage. By the way, starting today, each of us should carry five hundred Brass Crystals. If we encounter any danger, we can absorb their energy. First of all, it might lead to a breakthrough; second of all, if there's an ambush, they'll likely choose nighttime for their attack. The light emitted from absorbing energy will serve as a clear signal for us to detect any anomalies immediately."
Everyone nodded in agreement. After spending these past few months together, Xiao Wei had truly shown himself to be an invaluable asset to the team as their strategist. Truly a descendant of a scientific family; his intelligence was remarkable—at least two hundred fifty IQ points worth, Wang Chao thought.
"Alright!" Wang Chao said. "Then we'll proceed according to Xiao Wei's plan. But we must be cautious in everything we do—especially at night. It's best to stay inside the villa so we can look out for each other." Wang Chao thought to himself that if anyone got kidnapped again, he would really lose it!
