Even though they came, they suffered heavy losses.

Their species, in order to reproduce and thrive, is somewhat similar to an ant colony or bee colony; they need a place to hatch.

However, building a perfect incubation site is no easy task! In the past thousands of years, only three places have been successfully established.

For the sake of their clan's survival, the memories they have passed down only tell them that there are currently only three breeding pools in the world. As for where the other two are, only the elders at the top know.

And the place they just destroyed was one of these three incubation pools!

Due to the lack of power in recent years, the reproduction of the same race has not been rapid. Including him and the two companions who were just burned to death, only four members of the same race have been successfully born in this incubation pool.

The elders, on the other hand, were beings who had descended into this world long ago. It was always the elders who contacted them, while they themselves had no way to contact the elders.

They disguised themselves as witch gods and, from ancient times to the present, have been casting newborn 'eggs' onto believers through idols during sacrificial rites.

Perhaps it's because this world lacks spiritual energy, the hatching success rate is shockingly low.

Their successful incubation gave the Elders some hope.

Even though the chances were slim, at least it was a success, wasn't it?!

The four members of their clan did indeed lie dormant in Yunya County at first, guarding this place of incubation while also thinking about how to expand their clan.

The guy named Nuo was the bolder one.

"After he hatched, there was a small accident. His host resisted too fiercely, and since he had just been born and had not yet fully digested the inheritance, he was driven out of the host in a short time."

However, Nuo was really lucky; he encountered a host that was very suitable for us—a vampire.

He successfully entered the vampire man's body, and told us that he needed to find a way to bring more vampires over, because such a powerful body might be the best vessel to accept our kind and provide nourishment for the eggs!

The kneeling man named Na carefully recounted everything, but instead of the Yama Emperor's promise to spare his life, Hu Da sealed him inside a magic pearl.

The fox clan's illusion pearl is actually a barrier set up with illusions. Any creature sealed within it will be quickly trapped in a continuous illusion. At least for a small 'puppet' of this level, breaking through Hu Da's illusion pearl is simply a pipe dream.

Knowing that this place was not safe to stay, after capturing the guy, Yan Di carried Song Mengmeng and Hu Da away, leaving behind only three corpses lying on the ground.

Hu Da wasn't idle either. She secretly went to the police station in the county town and placed the photos she had taken, along with the address, on the desk of the head of the serious crimes team.

So when Song Mengmeng woke up early the next morning, all she heard was the sound of police sirens blaring on the highway outside the guesthouse.

"You slept well?!"

Seeing Song Mengmeng sit up from the bed, Yan Di, who was working on his laptop, looked up at her and greeted her with a light smile: "Get up and wash up, we'll go downstairs for breakfast."

"What's going on outside?!"

Hearing the sirens blaring outside, Song Mengmeng didn't think it was just a routine matter. While getting dressed and getting out of bed, she whispered to Yan Di about the situation.

She hadn't eaten this much in a long time, and she was still feeling a bit indigestion.

However, she would accept any kind of pure power! Anyway, she had plenty of time to digest it.

"Huda took photos of what happened in the cave yesterday and sent them to the police station. With the police officers involved, they might be able to get more information by contacting their network of connections."

Yan Di had finished his work, closed his laptop, stood up, walked over, and squatted down to help Song Mengmeng put on her shoes.

"We finally caught a 'puppet,' and with his testimony, we can prove Valenner's innocence. However, this matter was only resolved in a short time. There are still two incubation sites that we need to find a way to uncover."

While helping Song Mengmeng get up, Yan Di told her about everything that had happened since Song Mengmeng was still half asleep the day before: "I had Hu Da contact Hu Yue, and she and Reynolds are on their way."

"According to you, these newly hatched puppets must not know the exact locations of the other two incubation sites. Therefore, the most direct way to dig that thing out is to lure out the elder who is hiding behind it first."

While drinking the lily porridge that Yan Di had brought her, Song Mengmeng murmured her thoughts.

"Given what happened at the incubation grounds, the elder should be able to sense it. Do you think he'll come here to check if he finds out?!"

Looking at the bright-eyed little girl in front of him, whose eyes were filled with obvious anticipation, Yan Di couldn't help but laugh out loud. He reached out and ruffled the little girl's fluffy head, saying with a touch of indulgent helplessness, "Are you trying to have your cake and eat it too?!"

"No way! I'm just stating the facts!" Song Mengmeng, whose thoughts had been exposed by Yan Di, immediately bristled and glared fiercely at the man, protesting, "I was just thinking, with such a devastating change happening here, they can't possibly be leisurely watching the show over there!"

"That's why I had Huda leak the information to the police station. As long as this matter blows up, it's not like there won't be any reaction from them! Just like you said, they've been in this world for so long, and they've only successfully landed in three incubation sites!"
