"What are you looking at me for?"
Su Ye looked stunned and felt a little embarrassed being stared at by everyone.
Chun Huyue explained the reason: "Xiao Ye, you have the best luck. You get to choose which direction we should search in."
Su Ye was stunned when he heard this, and quickly waved his hand to refuse: "I choose? No, no. I don't know which direction to search, what if I choose the wrong one?"
Kevin said, "It doesn't matter if you choose the wrong one. Just search somewhere else. Who can blame you?"
Lin Jian'e agreed, "We didn't know where to go in the first place, so we had to rely on our luck to choose the direction. Your luck is the best among us."
"That's... okay."
Su Ye was not hypocritical, he just didn't know how to operate it: "Should I just point in a random direction, or how do I do it?"
"Wait, I have a dice here. Throw it. We'll search in the direction it lands on."
Kevin said as he pulled out a special dice from his stretching magic bag.
What is engraved on this dice is not the number of points, but the six words "East, South, West, North, Up and Down".
When taking out the dice, Kevin not only cast a wind-avoiding spell, but also signaled everyone to gather around.
After all, this snowstorm was very strange and could make the wind-proof spell ineffective. Everyone gathered together to at least block some of the wind and prevent the dice from being blown away by the snow and wind.
"Where did you get this dice?" Pei Jun came over to take a look and asked curiously.
"Of course it's custom made."
Kevin gave the dice to Su Ye.
"Ever since I knew that Xiao Ye was going to go on a mission with us, I asked someone to find a Feng Shui master to make a dice like this. It's for situations like the one we're facing now - when we're lost or don't know where to go, we can let Xiao Ye roll the dice. She's lucky, so the direction she rolls will definitely be better than us running around."
"You are quite thoughtful." Pei Jun gave a thumbs up and praised him, then asked in confusion: "Since it is about determining the direction, I understand there are east, south, west and north, but what about 'up and down'?"
Kevin raised his hand and pointed to the sky, then to the ground: "Isn't this hard to understand? Up to the sky, down to the ground. These are also two directions."
Pei Jun slapped his forehead and said, "Oh, I forgot about flying into the sky and hiding in the ground..."
The main reason is that he doesn't know how to escape underground.
Su Ye held the dice and rolled it amid the encouragement of everyone to "roll boldly".
Because everyone gathered around and blocked the wind and snow, the dice were not affected by external forces.
It fell on the snow, revealing the word "Dong".
"Okay, let's search towards the east first." Kevin said immediately, and fumbled in the stretching magic bag for a while, took out the three-headed dog Xiaoguai and the magical beast Wendigo, wanting them to help with the search.
However, the three-headed dog with fire attribute is not very adaptable to this blizzard environment.
Even if Kevin didn't want it to go into battle and kill the enemy, but just wanted to use its tracking ability, it wouldn't work - the three-headed dog started to have long snot as soon as it came out, and its sense of smell was basically ineffective.
Kevin had no choice but to stuff it back into the stretch magic bag.
Fortunately, there is the Wendigo.
This is a magical beast whose entire body is made of ice and snow. It is best at lurking and tracking in the ice and snow.
"You two should be more sensitive with your noses later."
Su Mu gave some instructions to Cai Mao and Tushan Mimi.
Both of them have learned the key to perception and are very good at tracking.
Tushan Mimi protested: "We use our spiritual power to sense, not our noses!"
Unfortunately, Su Mu ignored her and turned to tell the powerful tiger king: "Su Ye sits on you and protect her!"
The powerful tiger king nodded repeatedly: "Don't worry, master."
The group of people sat down for a while to gather themselves, and then began to search towards the east.
Su Ye did not return the dice to Kevin. Instead, he took it and rolled it on the back of the Tiger King from time to time. If the result of the new roll changed, the team would also change the search direction.
"This time it's north, north."
After Su Ye rolled the dice again, he spoke to everyone.
The team immediately changed direction and headed north.
Kevin walked and observed the surroundings, whispering, "Why does it feel like the blizzard is getting more intense the further we walk? Are we going to the eye of the storm?"
Xun Ling rode on the back of her Husky, feeling warm and effortless: "It's possible. Maybe the source of the weirdness is in the eye of this snowstorm..."
"Shut up!"
Su Mu suddenly spoke.
But he noticed that Caimao was sending him a signal.
"What's going on?"
“There’s someone ahead!”
Through her perception skills, Cai Mao discovered that there were living beings in the wind and snow, and these living beings all possessed strong spiritual power.
Everyone stopped immediately, and Kevin squinted his eyes and looked ahead.
His special vision allows him to see through the snowstorm and see things that ordinary cultivators cannot see.
Kevin quickly told what he saw: "There is a cave ahead. The person Caimao mentioned is probably hiding from the snowstorm in the cave."
Lin Junjie snorted coldly, "We searched hard in the blizzard, and there was someone hiding in the cave to avoid the wind... He was enjoying it. Can you see who it is?"
Kevin rolled his eyes at him and said unhappily, "My sight can penetrate the wind and snow, but not the stone wall. I can only see that there is a cave. I am just guessing that there is someone inside."
Chun Huyue took out the military tablet distributed to the front-line base and took a look: "The identity plate has no response. The map on the military tablet shows that our search team is the only one in this vicinity. Of course, it is not ruled out that the signal of the military tablet has also been interfered with."
Su Mu thought for a moment and arranged: "You stay here and be careful and alert. I will go to the cave to take a look."
Chun Huyue nodded in agreement: "Okay, be careful!"
The others immediately hid themselves, taking advantage of the surrounding terrain, ready to fight at any time.
The Wendigo lurked in the ice and snow, scouting the surroundings.
The powerful tiger king put Su Ye down and let the vegetable cat take over the protection. He used the skill of wind escape and hid in the wind and snow. This not only enabled him to better detect the surroundings, but also allowed him to attack the enemy by surprise when encountering him.
Su Mu did not use the Shadow Lord, but instead used the Snow Escape Technique, allowing his body to melt into the thick ice and snow and move back and forth at a rapid speed.
In the blink of an eye, he was outside the cave that Kevin mentioned. He found a hidden corner, poked his head out, and looked inside.
The cave was pitch black and silent. From the outside, one could not tell whether there was anyone inside.
Su Mu was not in a hurry to go in, but tentatively released a trace of spiritual power inside.
As soon as the spiritual power reached the cave entrance, Su Mu's krypton gold plug-in was activated, and a line of information appeared in his eyes.
"There is indeed a problem, there is indeed someone hiding!"
Su Mu was cheered up.
According to the information received by the krypton gold plug-in, there is a defensive magic circle at the entrance of this cave.
This defensive formation was constructed very cleverly, making it difficult to detect and extremely easy to trigger.
In other words, Su Mu has a paid cheat, otherwise it would not be easy to discover it.
Su Mu did not break the formation. Secondly, he spent money to upgrade his knowledge of the defensive formation to 10 points. He took advantage of the flaw of the defensive formation at the entrance of the cave, which had only 7 points, and opened a "back door". He switched the snow escape technique to the earth escape technique and sneaked in quietly.
The cave was very deep, and Sumu went straight into the depths and finally saw the light.
A group of people are hiding here to avoid the blizzard.
Suddenly, one of them turned his head and looked towards the cave entrance.
"What's wrong?"
His companions around him noticed that something was wrong with him and asked him about it immediately.
"The defensive formation at the cave entrance was triggered just now."
"An intruder?"
"Are they the teachers and students from the various colleges and universities searching the mountain?"
The group of people in the cave immediately took out their weapons and assumed a fighting stance.
The man before said: "Don't be nervous, the feedback of the magic circle is very weak, and it disappears quickly. I guess it was either triggered by a small animal that ran in to avoid the wind and snow, or it was accidentally triggered by the blizzard."
"It was just a false alarm."
Everyone in the cave felt a little relieved, but some people still got up and went to the cave entrance to investigate the situation.
None of them noticed that someone had already sneaked into the cave.
Su Mu hid in the dark, and after confirming the number and strength of the people in the cave, he quietly slipped out and returned to the team.
Seeing Sumu coming back from his investigation, everyone immediately asked, "What happened? Who is in the cave?"
"There is indeed someone in the cave. I don't know who he is, but he is definitely an enemy, not a friend."
"What do you mean?"
"They had set up a defensive formation at the entrance of the cave. When I went in, it triggered a little bit. They thought it was one of ours who broke in, so their first reaction was to fight and kill them."
Everyone was delighted when they heard this. Did they encounter members of a cult who came to cause trouble?
Although it is not as good as finding the entrance to Mount Buzhou, discovering and annihilating members of the cult organization is also an achievement.
Everyone immediately rubbed their hands, eager to fight.
Chun Huyue was more cautious and asked, "How many people are there? How strong are they?"
"I saw eighteen people, all of them were quite strong, most of them were around level four or five, and there were two demigod-level masters!"
Su Mu reported the information he observed.
This is also the reason why he didn't rush into action.
"Two demigod-level masters?"
Everyone frowned.
Su Mu is the only demigod in the team. It might be a bit difficult for Su Mu to fight two people alone.
Gu Ranxi suggested: "Why don't we use the clone communication symbol to report the situation to the frontline base and ask them to dispatch support?"
This is a safe method. We can call for reinforcements, and Su Mu doesn't want to put everyone in danger.
But just as he was about to agree, Kevin's expression suddenly changed and he said, "Wendigo informed me that there is a team marching nearby."
Chun Huyue glanced at the military tablet again: "It's not shown on the map."
A snowy wind blew, and the powerful tiger king emerged from the wind and reported: "I saw a group of demons appearing nearby!"
Everyone immediately started talking:
"Is it a demon?"
"The demons are coming too?"
"There are members of a cult, demons, and all kinds of evil spirits here. It looks like this snowstorm is really something special!"
Su Mu's eyes moved and he laughed: "Don't worry about using the clone communication symbol, our reinforcements have arrived!"
