"Oh? So that's how it is. Captain Nanfeng, please wait a moment while I discuss this with a few friends."
Sikong Wen nodded, and did not ask him why he was going to the wilderness, but just said that he needed to discuss it.
"As it should be. We just need to take a break." Nanfeng said, and immediately turned around to arrange the affairs of the hunter group.
Si Kongwen also walked to where Bai Mo and the other three were standing. After Gu Changying put down the soundproof barrier, he looked at Bai Mo and asked:
"Are you serious? This South Wind Hunter Group has bad intentions towards us!"
In the battle just now, Bai Hanxing and his companions did not use their full strength, precisely because of Bai Mo's telepathic reminder.
"They have malicious intent, and the leader of the Lightning Hunter Group has particularly strong malicious intent. This is what Yu Mian felt, and he should not be wrong." Bai Mo said.
"How could it be? They want to harm us. Why? This doesn't fit the reputation of the Lightning Hunters in Leizhou!"
Sikong Wen frowned, somewhat unable to understand. More importantly, Leizhou finally had a famous hunting group, and he didn't want this to be a bunch of corrupt guys.
"Could it be that Miss Ding misinterpreted the Silver-Armored Rhino's malicious intent as the Lightning Hunter Group's malicious intent?"
"I won't make any mistakes." Ding Yumian shook his head.
"Aren't they going to come with us? Promise them. Instead of letting them follow us secretly, why not put them under our noses? I want to see what kind of trouble these people are going to make!"
Gu Changying said seriously that she would not take action preemptively based on a guess, but it was also necessary to take some precautions in advance.
"Chang Ying is right. With the two of us at the super level, that Nan Feng can't cause any trouble." Bai Hanxing also said, "It's better to know what they are going to do as soon as possible, so that they won't jump out and interfere when we take action."
"Okay, I'll go talk to them right away." Sikong Wen said, then turned and walked towards Nanfeng.
"Captain Nanfeng, I have already made an agreement with them. Since it's on the way, we can walk together for a distance. The center of the Thunder Domain is indeed dangerous."
"Then I'll trouble you, Master Sikong."
"Over there, everyone is trying to survive in the wild. More people means more care."
“Well said.”
Next, everyone waited for the mages of the South Wind Hunter Group to recover their magic power a little before continuing to the southwest.
It is indeed easier to get things done with more people. The attack of the purple lightning tree spirit in the Zi Ting Forest, which Bai Mo and others originally had to face personally, was now shared by the seven people in the Lightning Hunter Group.
Along the way, almost everyone in the Lightning Hunter Group had been attacked by the Purple Lightning Tree.
Through observation, Bai Mo discovered that the leader of the hunter group should be the one with the highest level of thunder magic skills. Each of his thunder magics was used smoothly, which was not something that could be achieved with high-level control.
As for the other six members of the Hunter Group, five of them were high-level in the first system, all of them were elemental systems. Only the shadow system mage seemed to be at the high-level third level, and there was also a fire system that had reached the high level.
Along the way, everyone got to know each other better.
They were walking back and forth in scattered groups. Bai Mo and the others all looked young, so they said they were here to complete the school assessment task.
However, Bai Mo discovered that several men in the hunter group looked at him with strange eyes. What does possessiveness mean?
When we walked out of Zi Ting Forest, it was already dark.
The sky in Leizhou is even darker at night. There is no moon or stars to be seen. There is only the Thunder River flowing in the dark clouds, appearing and disappearing without direction, which can illuminate the way ahead.
"This is the wilderness. There are many monsters in the wilderness. It is inconvenient to move around at night. Why don't we rest here for a night?"
Nanfeng looked at Sikong Wen. He always thought that Sikong Wen was the leader among Bai Mo and the other five people.
"Okay!" Sikong Wen nodded. They indeed had no plan to walk at night.
The prairie is vast, covered with purple weeds as tall as a person. The area is connected to the center of the thunder domain, and the southwest end is Minglei Cape.
As Ju Nanfeng said, their target was a river in the wilderness, and in the first half they went the same route as Bai Mo and the others.
Rumble~~~~~~~~!
A burst of thunder resounded, and the purple-gold lightning swam from one end of the sky to the other like a dragon with bared fangs and claws. The golden light it sprinkled illuminated the vast wilderness below and lit up two tents at the junction of the forest and the wilderness.
One big and one small.
"There seems to be no movement. They don't plan to take action here, or they don't plan to take action at all?" Gu Changying tilted his head.
"It's also possible that they want to wait for us to counterattack the city and then ambush us." Bai Hanxing said.
"I still can't figure it out. They must have a motive for attacking us. What is their purpose? We don't seem to know them."
Sikong Wen frowned and asked again the question that he had asked many times along the way but still couldn't figure out.
"Who knows? There are so many different kinds of people in this world." Bai Mo touched his face, "Especially those who like Sese. Maybe they are attracted by my beauty."
"Don't talk nonsense." Bai Hanxing said.
"I don't know. My sister-in-law and I have exposed our ability to the sound system, and I haven't heard them talk about any private matters along the way."
Bai Mo glanced at Ding Yumian who was meditating with her eyes closed, then sat beside her and closed his eyes.
"Forget it, let's take a break."
On the other side, several members of the Lightning Hunter Group were awake.
The darkness in the tent was occasionally broken by faint rays of magical light that streaked through the air.
'Do you have any solution for those two sound mages?'
"Sound magic is too difficult to defend against. If anything goes wrong when we get there, you will be the first one to deal with it."
"Captain, they are quite powerful. Why don't we unite with them to fight against that guy?"
"That's a monarch! Even with you guys, I can't defeat him, and we lost three teammates. We can only obey him! In order to get the antidote, you idiot!"
One night and dawn.
Everyone continued to set off.
The purple grass on the prairie is difficult to deal with, mainly because it is flexible and dense, and can block human perception and detection.
However, thanks to Bai Mo and Gu Changying in the team, they would not be attacked by the monsters hiding behind the grass wall. Ding Yumian had never exposed his psychic abilities in front of the Nanfeng Hunter Group and others.
However, there are some monsters that the Sound System cannot do anything about. When they are in ambush, they can even control their own heartbeats so as not to be exposed.
It is even more difficult to guard against, as such monsters are often very powerful. Only with sufficient strength and a strong enough body can they keep their hearts from stopping for a long time without being in danger.
Just like the wild horned thunder lizard they are dealing with at this moment, it is a small commander and is also famous for its strong defense.
"Sister Changying, Brother Baimo, this thing is hard to kill. I will restrain it, but it's up to you to break its defense!"
After getting familiar with each other, Nanfeng said bluntly, and at the same time, the Eye of the Rock Demon was released. In the shadows nearby, the high-level shadow system also quietly approached the Wild Horned Thunder Lizard and threw out nine shadow sword nails, nailing the Wild Horned Thunder Lizard in place.
Bai Mo rolled his eyes implicitly, he had already realized that something was wrong.
With him and Gu Changying as spies along the way, it stands to reason that they wouldn't encounter many monsters.
It’s fine if there are demons that have been lurking in one place for a day or two, or even a week or two, as quiet as a stone. What’s even more bizarre is that demons suddenly appear in some areas where there are clearly no demons.
The number of times was not many, but it happened about once every hour. During this interval, people would occasionally encounter monsters that had been lying in ambush.
Most of these monsters are at the commander level. Although they are encountered rarely, every time they meet, Nanfeng will look at the situation and say that the monster's defense is too high, and ask them to take action.
If Bai Mo had not known in advance that they harbored ill will towards him and others, he would have really believed that all this was just a coincidence. After all, this was a paradise for thunder demons, and anything could happen.
But now they have been prepared in advance, so there is a traceable path for all these events.
This was clearly consuming his and Gu Changying's magical energy, but they didn't know that Gu Changying was a super-class wizard.
What's more, he doesn't know that, theoretically, his magical power is inexhaustible.
"Kill Fun-Explode!"
A few killing blows shattered the armor of the wild horned thunder lizard, and Bai Mo pretended to save his magic power and stopped. The rest was left to the destruction mage in the team.
After dealing with the wild horned thunder lizard, Bai Mo continued to move forward with the crowd, secretly wondering how the people from the Lightning Hunter Group lured the nearby demons over.
He had observed many times along the way and had not seen any unusual magical glow, so it could only be magic that could be prepared in advance.
Among the many magics, the only ones that can be prepared in advance and can attract demons are plants and poisons. These two types are actually difficult to distinguish sometimes because some plants also contain toxins.
"It seems that we need to take some precautions, so as not to fall into the trap without knowing what's happening."
His lips moved, and his voice rang in the ears of Ding Yumian, Bai Hanxing and the others, "I suspect there are poison or plant magicians among them, be careful."
They looked at each other and nodded slightly, obviously realizing that something was wrong.
At this moment, Nan Feng, the leader of the Lightning Hunter Group, stepped forward and asked Si Kong:
"Brother Sikong, the Xuanshui Bay we are going to is not far ahead. I wonder if you are interested in joining us."
Speaking of the latter part, Nan Feng lowered his voice and continued:
"To be honest, we have received news of a high-quality soul seed. There are two guardian demons here, who are top commanders. It is quite troublesome. I would like to ask Brother Sikong and your friends to help. We can split the money from the sale in half. How do you think?"
Hearing this, Sikong Wen's face showed a look of realization, "So Captain Nanfeng came here for this. I didn't expect that there is such a treasure hidden here. Captain Nanfeng is really lucky."
While saying this, Sikong Wen was secretly thinking:
'So this is what the Lightning Hunters were planning. They let them act as thugs first, and then kill them after getting the Lightning Seeds. It's a simple plan. It's because Bai Hanxing and Gu Changying didn't show their super-class aura and weren't noticed by the Lightning Hunters. Otherwise, Nanfeng wouldn't have dared to come up with this idea.'
"We also discovered it by accident. I wonder if Brother Sikong has any ideas for cooperation?" Nanfeng's words interrupted Sikong Wen from his thoughts.
Sikong Wen paused for a moment, pretending to hesitate and said, "After all, they are two top commanders. I can't make the decision on my own. I need to discuss it with a few friends."
"Oh! As it should be, we are waiting for the good news from Brother Sikong. If it works, we will divide the soul seed 40% and 60% respectively, and the demon corpse will also be yours!"
"That's settled."
Sikong Wen chuckled and went to discuss with Bai Mo and the others. In his heart, he thought that this old man was playing tricks on him because he was young.
Coming to Bai Mo and the others on the right side of the team, Sikong Wen told them what had just happened.
"Of course I agree to it. It's unreasonable to refuse a treasure that comes to my doorstep."
Bai Mo smiled, and seeing this, Bai Hanxing, Gu Changying and others also chuckled.
"But we still need to take some precautions. These are the military's antidotes. Take them." Gu Changying took out three bottles of potion from the space bracelet and handed them to everyone.
The few of them pretended to discuss for a while before Sikong Wen told Nanfeng that they agreed to help deal with the demon guarding the soul seed.
Seeing that Sikong Wen and the others agreed to go together, Nanfeng was overjoyed. They had already entered the wilderness. This was an area with many puddles. Nanfeng pointed to the north and said:
"After arriving at this thousand-meter depression, go northwest for five or six miles and you will find a river. There is a sandbar on the river. The thunder seed is on the sandbar. The demon guarding the soul seed is not easy to deal with. Everyone, be prepared!"
"Okay." Bai Mo and others nodded slightly.
Led by the Lightning Hunters, they headed towards the river sandbar he mentioned.
A distance of five or six kilometers was not far for the group, and it didn't take long before they arrived at a river.
Pushing aside the denser purple grass, you can see a gentle river that is neither wide nor narrow.
The river reflected the sky, presenting a dark color. It was impossible to see what was inside, but there was a sandbar with an area of about 100 meters in the center of the river. The sandbar was barren, and a protruding peak of more than ten meters high in the center was extremely conspicuous.
"Brother Sikong, there are two Thunderhorn crocodiles in the river. Usually at this time, one of them will go out to look for food. This creature is very slippery in the water, but it likes the meat of the silver-armored rhinoceros the most."
Nan Feng said this, commanding the Lightning Hunters to take out the fragments of the Silver-Armored Rhinoceros' body and place them on the river bank, and continued:
"We hunted the silver-armored rhinoceros to lure out the Thunder-Horned Crocodile who was guarding the Soul Thunder alone. Then we can all work together to kill him!"
Sikong Wen, Bai Mo and others looked at each other and nodded. They didn't expect that Nanfeng was so thoughtful.
Bai Mo looked at Bai Hanxing, who had been watching the sandbar in the center of the river, and asked, "How is it?"
"There is a faint flash of lightning above that mountain. There might really be a soul seed there." Bai Hanxing nodded slightly.
Hearing this, Bai Mo's eyes lit up, and according to Nanfeng's arrangement, he and a group of members of the Thunder Hunter Group hid in the dense purple grass, waiting for the Thunder-horned crocodile in the river to be lured up by the flesh and blood of the Silver-armored Rhinoceros.
He sensed the ambush formation of the crowd and found that he and others were surrounded by the Lightning Hunter Group.
At this moment, Ding Yumian's telepathic message that shocked Bai Mo and the other three resounded in their hearts.
'They are about to take action.' (End of this chapter)
