In Gal's words, the opponent seemed to have found a long-awaited opponent, and his whole being was overflowing with a desire to fight.
Of course, this seems to be just the beginning; the real danger is yet to come...
Gal, along with Serpent King, Eagle King, and a few others, came over to watch over the riverbank.
Several people were already keeping a close watch on them. As soon as they saw Gal, they quickly greeted him.
"It's alright, you guys go back and rest. We'll handle the rest," Gal said, nodding.
The others also showed excited expressions and quickly agreed to leave.
Once everyone had left, Gal said, "Look, this place is really strange. I've had people conduct some experiments, but we still can't figure out what's going on. The waterfall over there is still flowing normally, but here it's all frozen..."
It must be said that on a day like this, having a frozen patch of river water is indeed a comforting sight.
The others also tried to launch attacks in that direction one by one, attempting to break the ice, but all their efforts were in vain, and they almost got injured instead.
They inevitably huddled together, trying to figure something out. This time it was truly bizarre; the female had inexplicably returned, though once again in a deep sleep…
The only one who didn't return this time was Cat Duoduo. At this moment, no one wanted to talk about it; they were all subconsciously thinking about how to find the other person.
The Serpent Rong looked towards the river, as if he had thought of something, his eyes flickering uncertainly.
"She Rong, don't overthink it, we will definitely find him..." Ying Kai subconsciously came over to comfort him, mainly because he had recognized She Rong's strength and performance, and felt that he had already developed some camaraderie with him.
However, Serpent Rong did not react at all, which made Eagle Kai twitch his lips, feeling even more furious. "Serpent Rong, did you hear what I just said?"
Eagle Kai was about to lose his temper when Gal and the others tried to stop him.
Amidst this commotion, only She Rong remained calm. He suddenly threw a punch, instantly channeling considerable power into it.
Logically, there should be some changes that bring about some transformation.
But all they could see were slight cracks in the ice, making it impossible to discern what lay beneath, as if they had already been rejected...
“It’s no use,” one of the eagles said in a low voice. “If it were really useful, we would have broken the ice long ago.”
“Eagle Sea!” Eagle Kai said coldly and rudely.
The other party immediately adopted a submissive and remorseful demeanor, not daring to show the slightest dissatisfaction to his elder brother.
At this moment, the Serpent King was still staring at the ice layer, seemingly lost in thought.
“I was thinking that perhaps we could wait for the females to awaken and then ask them…” Gal tried to speak.
It was at this moment that the sound of running began.
Immediately, the cubs' joyful voices rang out, "Daddy!"
Upon hearing this, Ying Kai and the others sighed in exasperation, thinking to themselves that these kids really knew how to cause trouble. Why couldn't they sleep peacefully at night instead of running out?
They exchanged glances and stepped forward to try and persuade the people to leave. Little did they know, the snake cubs had only exchanged a glance with the little beast Lolo, and they immediately coordinated their actions. First, the little beast Lolo easily stopped the group, and then the snake cubs went to the snake warrior.
The snake cubs looked radiant, their smiles barely concealed. "Great! Aunt Valina and the others woke up just now and said they were in here..."
Snake Three was panting, unable to contain his genuine excitement, and his words garnered everyone's astonished attention.
It has to be said, who would consider such a thing normal?
This is absolutely unbelievable.
In that case, could it be that the kids were just saying it casually so that the adults wouldn't investigate them for sneaking out in the middle of the night?
For a moment, the eagle clan members showed expressions of suspicion.
Gal Eagle Kai was somewhat puzzled and tried to ask for clarification.
But at this moment, Snake Rong seemed to have discovered something, and his expression changed. "I understand."
"Back off." Without turning his head, he uttered these words and launched an attack towards the river.
This was the first time Gal and his group had ever witnessed the enemy unleashing their full firepower, and it had to be said that the scene was quite dazzling.
A series of attacks are enough to make one wonder if they've missed something.
"Serpent Rong, have you gone mad?"
"Your hand is bleeding!"
"My God, the ice really does look like it's about to crack completely..."
To everyone's astonishment, She Rong simply smashed a path through the ice with his attacks. He successfully carved a way through what appeared to be an impenetrable ice surface.
It was obvious that the water inside was cold river water, which appeared to be flowing, yet also seemed to possess some kind of mystery, giving people a sense of unease.
"Serpent Rong, let's go back and take another look, and think of a solution." Eagle Kai couldn't hold back any longer, fearing that the person might die.
"Father..." The cubs reacted, mainly because their hands were fixed on the snake-like hand that was dripping blood, and tears were about to well up in their eyes.
"Don't be afraid, follow them, and I will soon be able to bring your mother back..." This time, the red light in the Serpent Rong's eyes seemed to grow even stronger.
The next second, he suddenly leaped into the river.
"Serpent Rong!" At that moment, the river froze on its own, which increased the unease in Gal and the others. They tried to launch an attack so that the Serpent Rong would have a chance to come out.
Even though the Serpent Rong are serpentine beastmen who are naturally adept swimmers in water, it doesn't mean they wouldn't risk drowning if they stayed in the water all the time...
It was at the very moment that the Serpent entered the river that the struggle between Cat and the Swamp was about to come to an end.
She was being dragged to perform a ceremony by the statue—what a joke! Only a fool would obediently comply. Everything Shuize was doing now was utterly baffling to her. She wanted to leave; there was no way she would stay here so easily.
It was obvious that she had underestimated the risks involved and was about to be forced to kowtow to the statue to complete this lousy ritual.
At that critical moment, Mizusawa stopped moving, looked sharply in one direction, and his voice carried a hint of fear, "Someone's coming, and a very troublesome one at that..."
