Chapter 148 One Wave After Another

Of course, Mu Ling also succeeded in attracting the attention of the beastmen.

Perhaps it was Mu Ling's embarrassing display that dispelled the unease in the hearts of many beastmen.

yes.

With the female attendants present, as long as they don't stray too far from her, she will be able to detect any pollution that gets close.

In an instant, the small female servant on the gray wolf's back grew taller.

The beastmen secretly told themselves that they must not stray too far from the female envoy.

Thus, a strange scene was created on the edge of the glacier.

The orcs squeezed the huge gray wolf in the middle, step by step, pushing and shoving each other as they moved forward.

Several times, Jiang Xi's legs were squeezed.

She looked at them with some confusion and bewilderment.

Then, his gaze swept around the surroundings, looking up and down, left and right.

The road beside the glacier isn't narrow, is it?

Do we really have to squeeze together?

If it were all a bunch of furry wild animals, that would be quite a sight to behold.

But they were all tall, strong, and burly men...

When she looked over, some of the orcs would give her a憨厚 (honest and simple) smile.

Jiang Xi shuddered twice, goosebumps rising all over her body.

Lu Liufeng flew in the air and saw the crowded scene by the glacier. He couldn't help but fly down a little and float in the air.

"Spread out a bit. As long as everyone stays in sight and pays attention to each other, everyone will be able to notice."

Lu Liufeng's words made the beastmen feel embarrassed, and they quickly moved away and dispersed.

Jiang Xi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

She looked at Lu Liufeng gratefully and winked at him.

Lu Liufeng smiled, then flew back into the sky to issue a warning from the air.

The glacier was calm, and the snow that fell in the morning was not heavy.

It was so calm that it was as if there had never been a blizzard or snow pollution.

Jiang Xi kept sensing, but never detected any signs of pollution.

The greatest fear is the unknown, more so than the known.

Everyone knows this area is polluted, but no one can pinpoint where the pollution is.

They scurried around like headless flies, leaving even those with extraordinary abilities helpless.

However, even after arriving at the place where Kangya and Carter had found the blackfish, Jiang Xi still couldn't detect any trace of it.

She even walked a distance along the ice floe, back and forth, but still couldn't find it.

For a moment, Jiang Xi felt somewhat deflated.

She squatted by the river, unsure of what to do.

Should we go into the snow forest, or follow the glacier?

Lu Liufeng landed beside the female master and said gently.

“Since the female has not made a decision, let them choose for themselves: whether to continue searching along the glacier or to enter the snow forest and trace the pollution.”

Jiang Xi was stunned for a moment.

Yes, how could she not have thought of that?

But as soon as she stood up, she couldn't help but look at Lu Liufeng.

"What do you think? Should we follow the glacier or go into the snow forest?"

Lu Liufeng's eyes flickered.

"Actually, I think we could stay nearby tonight and see if the pollution comes back."

"If the pollution continues, we won't need to search the whole forest anymore; we can just wait for the pollution to come to us."

Jiang Xi's eyes widened, and she praised him generously.

"Lu Liufeng, you are truly a great strategist!"

Lu Liufeng laughed.

"Without a female master, I wouldn't dare to be so presumptuous."

Jiang Xi adopted Lu Liufeng's suggestion and gathered everyone together to ask for their opinions.

The beastmen looked at each other in bewilderment.

Clearly, they had never thought about this.

Raman slapped the water with his tail, raised his hand from the water's surface, and said with a smile.

"First of all, I will definitely go wherever the female envoy goes, but since I am a mermaid, I cannot stay away from the water for a long time, so I can only choose the glacier."

Although he could also use fire to melt the snow in the forest into water.

But once the snow melts, it will immediately seep into the soil, rather than remaining in the forest and soaking.

Jiang Xi nodded, indicating her understanding.

She looked at the other orcs.

"And what do you think?"

Carter said directly.

"Wherever the female messenger goes, I will go!"

Immediately afterwards, many orcs echoed this sentiment.

"Wherever the female messenger goes, I will go!"

"Yes! We came out here to protect the female envoy, to find the blackfish, and to eliminate the pollution. Of course, we're going with the female envoy."

"Follow the female envoy!"

"Follow the female envoy!"

Jiang Xi was touched by their trust in her.

She looked at Lu Liufeng and asked him to explain the plan.

Lu Liufeng came out and explained that he was staying there temporarily to see if there would be any pollution attacks that night.

Then he added.

"But if the pollution really gets ashore and enters the snow forest, then we will definitely have to chase it into the forest to prevent the pollution from spreading further."

"They've reached the shore?"

Many orcs were surprised to hear his words.

"You mean... the pollution in the snow forest is the blackfish in the glacier."

Jiang Xi spoke directly.

“I’ve checked, the aura is the same.”

"The chances of getting ashore are very high."

The orcs looked at each other blankly.

Finally, Herber said directly.

"Everyone must obey the female's commands!"

A few orcs looked displeased, but given the majority of the orcs' stance, they remained silent.

After this "discussion," Jiang Xi had a direction.

However, even though she set up camp nearby, she still led three beastmen and several beastmen along the glacier for a long stretch of road.

Just as she expected, there was no sign of anything.

The blackfish seemed to have never existed.

The campsite had been decided, so around that time, Jiang Xi led everyone back.

But as soon as she returned to the camp, she saw a noisy group gathered in the animal skin tents.

Her heart sank, and she vaguely sensed that something was wrong.

"Mu Ling, hurry up!"

She patted Mu Ling beneath her.

When the beastmen saw her, they felt as if they had found their pillar of support and rushed towards her.

"The female messenger! The female messenger is back!"

"The female messenger has returned!"

Herber was in charge of leading the orcs to guard the camp, and Jiang Xi asked him directly.

"what happened?"

Herber said anxiously.

“Female Envoy, just now, Bai En, who went hunting with Mu, suddenly returned and said that they were attacked by a cursed beast and asked us to help.”

"I said we had to wait for the female messenger to return, but Fu has already gone with a few orcs!"

Suddenly, Carter descended rapidly from the sky, pointed in a direction, and said quickly.

"Female messenger, they went in that direction!"

Jiang Xi glanced around at the orcs in the camp and immediately made a decision.

"The orcs carrying the luggage, stay and keep watch. Don't leave no matter who comes looking for you! Don't trust anyone until I return! If we haven't returned by noon tomorrow, break camp immediately and go back to the tribe to explain the situation to the chief!"

She could understand the orcs' urgent mindset in leading people to the rescue.

But it just so happened that she arrived at the exact moment she was leading everyone to continue exploring, which was too much of a coincidence.

An unease arose in Jiang Xi's heart.

"Carter, lead the way!"
