Chapter 1371: The Form of Defection
Facing the soldiers swarming toward him, Su Chengyu’s eyebrows were tightly knitted together.
He had not attempted a forceful breakout before because he knew that by opening the door, his identity would most likely be exposed.
The officer in front of him did not seem to be the overall middle-level manager, but the fact that he could decide so resolutely against someone from the lower levels showed how clear the hierarchical system within the Tower of Eternal Winter was.
Leaving one’s appointed area without permission, no matter who, no matter the rank, large or small, would receive the appropriate punishment, which is why the Tower of Eternal Winter had been problem-free for so many years.
The unexpected appearance of the middle-level left Su Chengyu no choice but to stop being overly cautious, for he knew that if You Ming ran into trouble, their mission to liberate the Tower of Eternal Winter would completely fall apart.
Su Chengyu did not want to see such a scenario and had no other choice.
Yet still, Su Chengyu hadn’t expected that even before he entered the middle-level, merely opening the main door would blow his cover.
It was hard for Su Chengyu not to suspect that their opponents had anticipated this, and these people were specifically waiting for him here.
The plan was definitely not exposed; there was no reason for Mo Ningchen and You Ming to betray him alone.
If Su Chengyu’s suspicion was right, then there was only one possibility.
Every move Su Chengyu and his group made inside the Tower of Eternal Winter was under the enemies’ watch; they never left the sight of their opponents.
