Chapter 194 Abnormal Event
After making the decision, Benjamin acted decisively and removed his disguise. The huge "big light" suddenly appeared in the wind and snow!
Thousands of talismans and magical weapons poured down like a violent storm, instantly covering the entire gathering place!
The huge explosions caused by the dense energy bombs, accompanied by the snow monsters' shrill screams, resounded throughout the ice valley.
Faced with the sudden attack, the snow monsters had no time to organize an effective counterattack and died in large numbers under Benjamin's terrifying and precise firepower, turning into flying ice crystals and dust.
Without the obstruction of high-level units, Jemin's lethality was maximized.
Just like the previous cleanup, Benjamin resolved the battle quickly and efficiently!
In less than five minutes, this gathering place of snow monsters that had just been bustling and lively was left with only ice chips and a few intact ice crystal cores.
Jemin seized the opportunity and used soul search again to extract all the intact snow monster souls in the gathering place one by one for in-depth analysis.
He had to figure out what exactly happened here. Where did all the powerful people in the gathering place go?!
Soon, he got an answer that was not really an answer from the depths of the souls of these snow monsters, especially the only second-level snow monster.
The memories of these snow monsters are filled with an almost fanatical premonition of "summoning".
Previously, all the high-level snow monsters of level 2 and above in this gathering place were summoned by an inexplicable and powerful force to the core area deeper in the Frost Dark Realm.
The entire gathering place, including the surrounding small strongholds, only had a very small number of first-level snow monsters left.
The reason why this level 2 snow monster stayed here was because it evolved into level 2 on its own after being summoned.
But precisely because this second-level snow monster had just been promoted, it had hardly obtained any other higher-level core intelligence before being summoned.
All it remembered was the vague and irresistible power of "summoning" and the vague image of all the high-level snow monsters rushing into the depths like a tide.
"Calling order..." Benjamin's heart sank.
This is not good news.
Such a large-scale call suddenly occurred, which meant that something big must have happened inside the Frost Dark Realm!
And it is very likely that the scale is not small, and it may even affect the battle situation in the entire plane!
Because there is no flickering of the sky in either the Frost Dark Realm or the Flame Sun Realm, the approximate time can only be estimated through other information.
Judging from the scattered memory fragments of these snow monsters, it has not been too long since the issuance of this summoning order, perhaps only a few standard days!
After quickly clearing the harvest from the gathering place, Benjamin came outside and looked at the snow and wind, feeling a little dazed.
Standing in the center of the cleared ice valley, looking around, the vast expanse of snow and glaciers seems even more unfathomable.
The information he had was extremely limited, and he was completely unable to judge the current specific situation in the Frost Dark Realm.
If you go in rashly, you may run into the core defense circle of the Yeti, or even be caught up in a huge conspiracy!
The most important thing is that the second-level snow monster in this gathering place had just been promoted not long ago, and it knew nothing about the information of other gathering places and the detailed deployment further inland of the Frost Dark Realm.
"We can't go any further." Benjamin made a quick judgment.
In the absence of sufficient intelligence, blindly moving forward will only put you in danger.
Without any hesitation, he restrained all his breath and energy fluctuations, turned around and left the emptied snow monster gathering place.
He quickly categorized all his findings, speculations, and the limited intelligence he had gained from the lone second-level yeti soul.
Prepare to retreat back to the outpost as quickly as possible and report this information.
…
…
The cold metal walls blocked out the howling wind and snow from the outside, and the interior of the outpost was as warm as spring.
Standing in front of the communication terminal, Benjamin compiled all his findings from the Yeti gathering place - including the strange disappearance of the high-level Yeti collective and the vague "summoning" message in the mind of the newly promoted second-level Yeti - into a detailed intelligence report and submitted it through an encrypted channel.
The person who was responsible for receiving information and communicating with him was the pale-faced, heavy-robed second-level wizard.
His name was Edgar, and he seemed a little bored after being stationed in this isolated outpost for too long.
They seemed particularly willing to communicate with the new "visitor" Benjamin, especially the wizard who could bring back first-hand intelligence.
"Oh? You discovered it too?" Edgar looked at the information submitted by Benjamin on the screen, and a look of "as expected" appeared on his pale face.
He pointed to the description of "high-level Yeti being summoned" and said, "Similar intelligence has been appearing sporadically for a few days. However, at that time, it was just an isolated incident, and we all thought it was a normal troop movement within the Yeti community."
"But in the past two days, the number of such reports has been increasing rapidly. Almost all wizard teams that have gone out on missions have reported similar situations."
He casually swiped a few times on the light screen, called up several processed intelligence summaries, and showed them to Benjamin.
The above contents are similar, all of which are about the discovery of an abnormal lack of high-level combat power in the snow monster gathering places in different areas.
"So, the headquarters issued a corresponding exploration mission two days ago," Edgar continued to explain, "instructing all wizards active in this area to focus their attention on investigating this matter. Your intelligence provides strong evidence for this mission."
Edgar picked up a steaming hot drink, took a sip, and seemed to be in the mood for conversation. "Besides, I was just chatting with colleagues from several other outposts."
"From their feedback, this incident has occurred on a very large scale, covering almost all the border areas of the Frost Dark Realm that we have explored so far. So we are all privately speculating, and we can even assume that the same thing has happened throughout the Frost Dark Realm."
"The entire Frost Dark Realm..." Jemin repeated thoughtfully.
If this is true, then the meaning behind it is extremely important.
This is by no means a simple military mobilization, but more like a huge event that affects the entire Yeti civilization.
"Yeah," Edgar shrugged. "So, I guess in a couple of days, once the elite team that's conducting the in-depth investigation returns with more accurate intelligence, the camp will probably issue a formal military-wide notice or issue a large-scale strategic mission. By then, I'm afraid those of us stationed there will also be busy."
After listening to Edgar's analysis, Benjamin thought of another thing.
Now such strange changes have occurred in the Frost Dark Realm. Although we don’t know the specific reason, has something happened in the Flame Sun Realm, which has always coexisted with the Frost Dark Realm?
A bold guess arose in his mind.
Benjamin pondered for a moment, then walked back to the communication terminal and asked Edgar for permission:
"Sir Edgar, can I use the equipment here to send a short message to the wizards in the camp? I want to confirm something."
"Of course, go ahead." Edgar agreed readily. "This thing is originally a benefit for you wizards who are away from home."
Benjamin operated it skillfully and sent an encrypted message to Viola, who was far away at the main camp on the border line, through the outpost's more powerful long-distance communication equipment.
The content of the message was very simple. He briefly described the collective disappearance of high-level snow monsters in the Frost Dark Realm, and then asked her to help confirm whether a similar situation had occurred in the lava giant camp in the Flame Sun Realm.
After sending the message, Benjamin did not just sit there and wait.
He started talking to Edgar again, and the topic turned to an area that both of them were very interested in - the biological research on the yeti.
Benjamin verified some of his previous anatomical findings and energy structure analysis in the laboratory with the practical experience of Edgar, a wizard who had been stationed on the front line for a long time. The two had a pleasant conversation and time passed by unknowingly.
Just as they were discussing the energy conversion efficiency of the yeti's ice crystal core, the communication terminal suddenly made a soft "beep" sound.
Viola replied!
Jieming's idea moved him and he immediately went forward to check.
A line of concise words appeared on the screen, instantly confirming the bold guess in his mind.
"It's been confirmed by the mission center. High-level Lava Giants have also disappeared en masse. The situation is exactly the same as the Yeti camp you described! Only a large number of low-level Lava Giants are currently active in the Yanyang Realm!"
"As expected..." he muttered to himself.
It's not a unilateral movement, but a linkage between two realms!
The lava giants of the Sun World and the snow monsters of the Dark World, two civilizations that are mortal enemies of each other, actually made almost identical strategic deployments at the same time!
They all simultaneously pulled out all their high-level combat forces from the vast border line and gathered them all in the deepest part of their respective planes!
This is definitely not a coincidence!
"Something earth-shattering indeed happened in the Flame Frost Plane..." Benjamin could now confirm this 100%.
But he still didn't know what this big thing was.
Are both sides preparing for a final battle with the wizard to determine the ownership of the plane?
Or have they jointly discovered some deeper threat that requires a joint response?
Or is it some kind of periodic ritual or event related to the plane itself?
Countless possibilities flashed through Jieming's mind, but he knew that with his current authority and amount of intelligence, he could not guess the truth at all.
However, for Jemin personally, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Before the storm across the entire plane officially breaks out, before the wizard army makes a large-scale response, the entire border area will fall into an unprecedented "power vacuum."
A large number of snow monster gathering places are now in a state of disarray, and their defense capabilities have dropped to a historical low.
