Chapter 638: Chapter 298 Welco Back_2
Li Yelai scanned the room, noticing officials from the Giant City governnt, soldiers from the City Defense Army, and official Processors.
There weren’t any big fish.
“Is this everyone?” Li Yelai frowned.
“Of course not, but the rest are of no significant status. The East City Branch in No. 3 Border City has been cleared out, and we are currently reassigning personnel. Please rest assured, the branch will be rebuilt soon. It won’t delay your mission,” Jiang Yong explained.
Two days later, the group reached their destination, killed several extraordinary creatures, and used their heads as offerings to protect the group as they entered Great Snow Mountain.
…..
Elsewhere, the majority of the official mbers knew that their comrade from Champion Team One, the Night General Ye Boshou, had entered the Forbidden Zone on a secret mission.
He had lost contact in the Great Snow Mountain area of the Forbidden Heaven Realm more than a month ago.
A Fourth Awakening Spiritual Ability User losing contact for a month in the harsh conditions of the Extre Cold Mountain Range had an incredibly low chance of survival.
In such a place, even Captain Level powers could only move at certain altitudes. A slight carelessness could lead to being frozen.
It was unlikely that the Fourth Awakening Night General had survived in the Great Snow Mountain up to now.
Even if he hadn’t frozen to death, surviving without any food or dicine was very difficult.
However, the officials still hadn’t given up and consulted their in-house divination masters.
They believed there was a possibility that Li Yelai was still alive.
Thus, to this day, officials were still sending teams, including Ye Boshou, near and even into the Great Snow Mountain to explore.
So groups hunting extraordinary creatures in the Forbidden Zone also explored the Great Snow Mountain.
Dead or alive, they needed proof!
They discreetly approached Great Snow Mountain and excavated in a collapsed cavern, successfully finding the bodies of two angels.
From the wounds, it seed they were slain by the Night General!
This thrilled them imnsely; the Night General had at least escaped the angels’ pursuit.
And through signs left at the scene, they began to track further.
Today,
the Ye Boshou group, carefully exploring within the Snow Mountain, discovered an exciting clue.
Between two mountain ranges, they spotted a strip of land not eroded by extre cold, where vegetation was even growing.
The terrain here was low enough, protected by other powers, uncovered by snow, with rivers visible and even so wild fruits.
This was truly a safe haven within the Great Snow Mountain!
Protected by Great Snow Mountain, it would be difficult for external armies to conquer this easily defensible location!
What really brought them joy was sensing a flicker of Spiritual Energy in the valley.
It seed to be the Spiritual Energy of the Night General!
This excited the weary mbers led by the Night General group’s leader, Lan Hai.
He imdiately ordered a full-speed approach to the valley.
The Night General might still be alive!
With the temperature not low, and with fruit trees and rivers around, if the Night General had stayed here, he very likely could have survived up until now!
However, as the Ye Boshou group approached, bypassing higher ground and nearing the valley, their expressions grew grave.
The valley was indeed brimming with life, but it also ford a strange Spiritual Energy stance.
“This seems to be so kind of formation…” Lan Hai frowned, observing closely.
“Great Snow Mountain was originally a special terrane ford during humans’ battle with the Catastrophe Fog Master before the Forbidden Zone was established. Perhaps an Array from that period remains,” responded a Ye Boshou mber.
“Yes, it seems so, but we still can’t rashly venture into it,” Lan Hai said, taking out a skeleton oil lamp.
The next second, a ghostly white fla burned inside the lamp, casting a haunting gloom over the area, even dimming the light.
In Lan Hai’s shadow, a giant wolf, as large as a cow, materialized.
The Ghost Wolf seed intangible, its entire body glowing with a ghostly blue luster.
The Ghost Wolf growled softly at Lan Hai, who responded in an obscure language, “Help scout ahead, and don’t attack rashly.”
Evidently, Lan Hai was a Wanxiang Path Spiritual Ability User, using Virtual Realm Beast Language to communicate with the giant wolf.
The Ghostly Giant Wolf nodded slightly.
The next second, it transford into a ghostly light rushing towards the valley.
At this mont, one of the Ye Boshou spoke out, “No matter when you see it, it always feels chilly.”
“It is, after all, a Returning Soul, naturally it feels chilly; that is its ghostly nature.” Another Ye Boshou remarked, “They say Virtual Realm Beast Language is a useless skill, but now it looks like it’s given our team leader a good assistant.”
“It’s also lucky, unexpectedly solving its vendetta,” Lan Hai said with a light laugh. The Ghostly Giant Wolf’s strength was average, but being a ghost, it served well as a sentry and helper.
And as long as he held the oil lamp, he could make contact with it. The cooperation was very convenient.
However, after the Ghostly Wolf entered the valley, within just a few minutes, the connection between him and the giant wolf was intermittent.
This caused Lan Hai’s expression to shift slightly, and he imdiately extinguished the oil lamp, then relit it.
The Ghostly Giant Wolf reappeared.
It growled a few words at Lan Hai, who nodded slightly.
“Team leader, what did it say?” a Ye Boshou asked.
“Upon entering the valley, it followed the river to explore and discovered traces of human activity. But it quickly lost its way; the river twists and turns without end. Then, it turned back, clearly moving toward the position of the lamp I was holding, yet it moved farther away from , until it was beyond the range of contact,” Lan Hai replied.
“Can it still get lost with the oil lamp for positioning?” a Ye Boshou frowned, “It’s a maze, and what’s more, it’s a maze that can distort perception.”
“Luckily we didn’t rashly enter; otherwise, we’d all be trapped inside,” another Ye Boshou said, “But what do we do next? If the Night General is indeed inside the maze, it’s hard for us to rescue him. We don’t have the ability to break the maze.”
“We really can’t, you two go back to the base and inform our comrades.”
…
Soon, the news that the Night General was still alive but trapped inside the Snow Mountain Maze spread back to Giant City.
The official mbers who heard the news were all stirred up, the Night General was their comrade and battle brother.
Now that the Night General was in trouble, how could they stand by idly? They eagerly joined in the rescue.
And the official response was swift, the lting Furnace Captain of East City Branch, with the Elite Ye Boshou, personally took action, heading to the Great Snow Mountain overnight, fearing being discovered by the Forbidden Zone.
What outsiders didn’t know was that this made the senior officials of the governnt and the church breathe a sigh of relief!
Both sides were very pleased with the current progress.
The church believed ‘Lord Di Yun has finally re-entered the official ranks, our actions are about to be implented.’
And the senior officials of Giant City were delighted ‘The church’s bastards, finally sending the Night General back. Watch beat the crap out of them!’
Both sides simultaneously perfected the details of this operation.
No one wanted an error at this critical juncture.
…
anwhile, the lting Furnace Captain, having arrived in the Great Snow Mountain, stood looking down at the valley below, pulling out a short spear.
It was a Soul Extinguishing Weapon forged from the hand bone of a Spirit Extinguisher, also a trophy from Li Yelai’s conquest.
Now, it had beco the tool to rescue Li Yelai.
The throwing spear was launched, sweeping across the sky, targeting the maze.
The next second, the crisp sound of glass shattering erupted, as if sothing was forcibly smashed.
The Maze Formation covering the entire valley was shattered.
In that instant, the lting Furnace Captain clearly felt the spiritual energy fluctuation in the valley.
That was indeed the Night General’s spiritual energy fluctuation!
“This guy really is lucky, entering the Forbidden Zone killed i Wu, chased into the Snow Mountain under pursuit, yet survived, even advancing to Fifth Sense?” he smirked, imdiately leading the Ye Boshou into the valley.
Soon, they saw a ‘wild man’ with a full beard, ssy hair, tattered clothes, but wielding a Black Gold Dragon Pattern Halberd.
“Welco back, Night General!”
Li Yelai, with hunger-green eyes, nodded weakly.
To avoid any slip-ups, he really hadn’t eaten any at these past few days, only gnawing on fruit.
“I…I’m back…”
