The Healer More Powerful Than A Warrior - Chapter 416 - 416: Purpose?

From Lin Ye’s perspective, when it comes to demons, it’s always been about eradicating evil completely. Whenever he encounters them, as long as it’s within his power, Lin Ye will not stand by idly.

But this does not mean Lin Ye will use a cruel mindset to torture these human traitors.

It’s like when you see a cockroach, just step on it to kill it. Inflicting various tortures for purposes other than research, regardless of whether it is meaningful, is, in Lin Ye’s view, a waste of time.

If Tu Mengmeng doesn’t provide a proper reason, Lin Ye will definitely turn around and leave without staying here a second longer.

Seeing Lin Ye’s expression, Tu Mengmeng wasn’t flustered; she just began to speak, “Sorry, the reason I brought you here can only be explained to you now.”

Tu Mengmeng obviously misunderstood and didn’t know Lin Ye’s current thoughts; however, Lin Ye didn’t interrupt her, indicating that Tu Mengmeng should continue.

Her apology wasn’t Lin Ye’s focus since operations of the Demon Hunting Army involve classified matters, so waiting until now to inform him isn’t something beyond understanding.

Tu Mengmeng glanced at Lin Ye somewhat unusually; generally speaking, professionals of Lin Ye’s age might be too nervous to speak in front of her.

As a squad leader of the Demon Hunting Army, the aura she exudes, born from rivers of blood and piles of corpses, is enough to suffocate anyone.

Yet Lin Ye showed not the slightest sign of being intimidated, even looking at Tu Mengmeng with an almost reproachful gaze.

This courage and demeanor already matched Lin Ye’s own reputation, which indeed made Tu Mengmeng see him in a different light.

“In this secret chamber is a former member of the Demon Hunting Army named Tao Meng, who was seduced and fell under the influence of the Flesh and Blood Demon God, becoming a minion. During the last operation to root out a congregation of the Flesh and Blood Demon God’s followers, he leaked confidential information, leading to heavy casualties for the Demon Hunting Army.”

Lin Ye again looked at Tao Meng inside the secret chamber; this information wasn’t much different from what Lin Ye already knew.

“Get to the point, I believe you guys wouldn’t kill the innocent!” Lin Ye said.

Tu Mengmeng paused after hearing this.

She never expected Lin Ye to say such a thing; the Demon Hunting Army’s image outside has always been questioned, and it was the first time she encountered someone like Lin Ye who unconditionally trusted them.

This brought a slight smile to Tu Mengmeng’s face: “Alright, since you say so, I’ll speak bluntly!”

After a pause, she continued: “Initially, we intended to execute Tao Meng right away, but after secretly bringing him back to the base, we discovered his status among the Flesh and Blood Demon God’s followers was much higher than we anticipated, so we decided to try extracting valuable information from him.”

Tu Mengmeng furrowed her brow slightly and said: “However, this guy proved quite tough; I expended considerable effort yet couldn’t obtain any valuable information.”

At this point, Lin Ye could not understand his mission?

To keep Tao Meng’s life on the edge, making him endure constant torment until his spirit completely collapses and he confesses everything he knows.

This task, if left to other healers, would require the executioners to hold back a bit, unable to fully exert themselves.

But Lin Ye is different; he masters the Holy Healing Technique, capable of fully reviving Tao Meng as long as he has a breath left in him.

This aspect is something other healers simply cannot surpass.

That’s why the Demon Hunting Army invited Lin Ye here; to extract valuable information from Tao Meng, they obviously put all their effort into it, even going so far as to invite the best healer they know to attend to Tao Meng.

One can only wonder what Tao Meng thinks now; had he not chosen such a path, perhaps he wouldn’t have ended up like this?

Nevertheless, since the goal is intelligence extraction, Lin Ye had no objections.

He simply despises pointless slaughter, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t support purposeful, valuable torture.

Someone like Tao Meng, it is not an exaggeration to say he deserves death, so putting him through some torment isn’t unjustified, especially if some secrets can be extracted from him.

The Flesh and Blood Demon God, as a newly emerged Demon God in recent years, has been extremely active, arguably the most active Demon God in recent years.

Thus, the recruitment of his followers has been at a rapid pace, even to the point of infiltrating the Demon Hunting Army.

It’s for this reason that the Demon Hunting Army takes this matter so seriously, even going as far as to invite Lin Ye for assistance.

For extracting intelligence from Tao Meng, they indeed put in significant effort.

As for Lin Ye…

The Flesh and Blood Demon God would probably love to devour Lin Ye alive because Lin Ye seized a supreme treasure, the Four-leaf Clover, from him.

That was a supreme treasure painstakingly condensed by the Demon God with his limited essence, forcefully taken by Lin Ye, making their enmity eternal.

Owing to their ‘friendly’ relations, Lin Ye has an absolute reason to assist the Demon Hunting Army with this matter.

Lin Ye never expected that he would encounter Tao Meng again, so soon after returning from the ruins in less than a day.

However, Lin Ye was not worried about Tao Meng recognizing him.

This guy could rack his brain, but he wouldn’t imagine that the powerful individual he met on the ruins, with peak Demon Monarch strength, was Lin Ye.

Not only Tao Meng, likely no one would associate Lin Ye, bearing the young title of Saint Flame Pope, with a peak Demon Monarch filled with Demonic Qi.

These are completely unrelated matters.

Lin Ye approached closer, casting his gaze downward at Tao Meng, who was gasping for breath on the ground. Clearly, Tao Meng’s consciousness was somewhat blurred, not noticing Lin Ye’s arrival.

Demons, when not demonized, can be healed with Holy Light.

Otherwise, identifying demons wouldn’t be so difficult, simply requiring any Holy Light professional to conduct regular Holy Light examinations on everyone.

This would prevent demons from embedding themselves as hidden agents.

Since Tao Meng retained his human form, he could still undergo Holy Light healing.

“Feel free to proceed; this room possesses a special array that prevents demonization, keeping him in human form constantly!” Tu Mengmeng said.

Hearing this, Lin Ye nodded.

That the Demon Hunting Army has such equipment is not surprising; as an organization specialized against demons, much of their equipment is designed with demons in mind.
