According to Holmes' experience, in this test field, neither the mutated bloodthirsty cat demon nor the mutated giant bull race is a race that excels at speed. Even if they have the ability to charge forward, it is difficult for them to sustain for long. Therefore, if they encounter a strong enemy, as long as they focus on escaping, the chances of escape are still very high, not to mention that according to Du Yuqi and their plan, they will spend most of their time near the water.

After sorting out this series of interests, everyone returned to the camp and prepared to pack up and set off. At this time, they found that Duize was not there. Just when they were about to look for him, they found him coming out from the bushes not far away. Everyone thought he had gone to the bathroom. Only Xi noticed that Duize's eyes seemed to flicker, but he didn't take it to heart.

Cleaning up the camp was originally a trivial matter, but now there was no need to rush. Everyone was in a hurry. After seeing the miserable state of Quint, the powerful berserker, no one wanted to stay in this mountainous and hilly area for a minute. It was better to rush to the waterside as soon as possible for safety! As for the problems such as humidity, mosquitoes, and difficulty in making fire, they were no longer a problem in front of the terrible enemy.

…

at the same time.

One thousand kilometers away.

The sky was clear with white clouds, and the mountains that stretched across the land were majestic and magnificent. The sound of pine trees below was breathtakingly beautiful. However, when looking down from above, one could see that there were several large and ugly areas between the mountains. They were pitch black with no grass growing on them, and even the surrounding trees were obviously dead. It looked like leprosy on the ground, and the sense of incongruity was extremely strong.

Around these areas, there appeared buildings with obvious zero-organization style. A large number of people were coming in and out of these buildings like ants. Some buildings were spewing black smoke, some places were crowded with people, and some places were where fierce battles were going on.

Mixia sat next to the porthole holding a glass of red wine, crossing her legs and elegantly looking down at the situation below. Directly in front of her was a 180-degree transparent viewing window, through which she could take in the scenery ahead. She was in a reception room that was two to three hundred square meters wide. The decoration was mainly silver and gray, and the patterns were mostly made up of sharp triangles, full of aloofness and cool style.

What is more worth mentioning is that behind Misha is a curved wall that is fifty meters long and over six meters high. This curved wall is completely transparent. Behind the curved wall is filled with water from the Sea of ​​the Sky. Inside, you can see several giant coelon fish that are over ten meters long swimming slowly, circling, showing their sharp teeth from time to time, and spitting out one or two slowly growing huge bubbles.

This is Misha's new flagship, called Isabella, named after the famous queen of the Delos Empire! Relying on the analysis and research of the scattered power of the Scepter of God, this flagship has completely escaped the scope of a steel fortress. Its scale can only be described as a floating city. Its area is four times that of an ordinary steel fortress, but its gravity has increased to ten times that of an ordinary steel fortress, and its energy consumption has dropped to 80% of that of an ordinary steel fortress!

Moreover, once the Isabella enters a state of war, it can temporarily add developed war components, including up to 338 heavy ion cannons and laser cannons to teach people a lesson in minutes. Once the Isabella falls into crisis and is severely damaged, the core position where Misha is located can be optimized and deformed in a short time, and finally abandon more than 90% of the Isabella, transform into a high-speed airship and escape instantly.

Her previous huge investment finally reaped rich rewards. After the two core bases established in the sealed land began to operate, they continuously produced amazing rare specialties for her. In comparison, the profits that Mixia had given up before were really not worth mentioning. Mixia had optimized and reorganized the assets in her hands, and also replaced the eliminated marginal interests and industries with the current core industries!

Suddenly, a reminder light next to Mixia's chair kept flashing, which meant that there was an important message to be received. After seeing it, Mixia lightly pointed at the void in front of her, and a large virtual screen immediately appeared in front of her. A man covered in hideous steel armor said solemnly:

"Sir! We have received very important news from the front, which coincides with the Class II top-secret intelligence that we have been paying close attention to!"

Mixia raised the wine glass and took a sip of red wine, then said slowly:

"Level II top secret intelligence? Is it the operation organized by the Violent Pursuit Team?"

“Yes.” The man’s face was covered by a steel mask. He stood straight, but his voice was extremely cold. He said in a deep voice: “Originally, their operation was carried out in secret, but because they invited a rare second awakening expert, some clues were revealed!”

Mixia raised her eyebrows and said:

"A second awakening expert? Who is it?"

Iron Fang said coldly:

"It's Bai Xiuluo."

Mixia said:

"Oh? Is it the Bai Xiuluo who lives in seclusion in the Ten Thousand Years Snow Mountain? I heard that he specializes in the Xiuluo Evil Light Slash. When did he succeed in the second awakening?"

Iron Fang said word by word:

"According to our investigation, it happened just a few months ago, and coincidentally, it was very close to the time when we developed the Sealed Land!"

Mixia's eyes moved slightly, but she heard him continue:

"According to the data we have collected, a total of 83 Second Awakening masters who have appeared in history have been collected. Among these masters who were able to break through the Second Awakening barrier, 53 of them broke through within ten years after touching the Second Awakening barrier, 26 of them broke through within fifteen years after touching the Second Awakening threshold, and only two of them broke through more than fifteen years later, but none of them broke through more than twenty years later!"

"Therefore, it can be said that twenty years is a watershed. Once you touch the threshold of the second awakening and fail to break through in twenty years, the probability can be said to be very small. Bai Xiuluo has been stuck at the threshold of the second awakening for thirty-five years! But he was able to break through the barrier of the second awakening and become the Emperor of Heaven at this time. According to our analysis, his breakthrough should have been assisted by external forces, and there is an 83.44% possibility that this external force is related to the changes in the sealed land!"

When Mixia heard the word "mutated Terra Stone", her expression suddenly became serious.

"Didn't we investigate it clearly at that time? When the great priest Jig's giant arm collapsed, the mutated Terra Stone that escaped was almost all captured. How come there are still some that slipped through the net?"

Iron Fang Road:

"The collapse was very shocking at the time. According to our subsequent simulation modeling analysis of the underground palace below, there are two smaller caves on both sides of the main underground palace. There should be some fragments of mutated Terra Stone here. These fragments also flew away after the explosion. It is possible that Bai Xiuluo got the fragments of mutated Terra Stone that flew away. So according to our investigation, even after he successfully achieved the second awakening, his realm is still very unstable, and sometimes he will fall back to the realm of the first awakening."

After listening to Iron Fang's words, Misha said:

"I see. Your analysis is correct."

Iron Fang then pulled out another piece of paper and said:

"Because Bai Xiuluo's unusual behavior has aroused our attention, our people noticed Bai Xiuluo's unusual behavior next. Since his breakthrough, he has become unusually active. In the end, he even contacted the people from the Violent Hunting Group. The two sides hit it off and then planned something together. Three days ago, we learned that another strong man had joined them. He is the Hell Blood Demon God of this generation of the Orgi Family, Orgi Quint!"

"Our people paid a great price to obtain a half-burned fragment of the meeting minutes. The information leaked from it is: the mystery in the Imperial Test Site... awakening... instability... deep... powerful force! Terra Stone..."

"After getting this fragment, our people discovered that Bai Xiuluo, Quint and the members of the Violent Hunting Group had been missing for four days. We highly suspect that the core member of the Violent Hunting Group, Rozbern, has also joined them. He is a monster that has been transformed. It can be said that he is not a human being at all. Like Bai Xiuluo, he is an Asura. When Rozbern appeared fifty years ago, he had already demonstrated extremely strong strength. It is very likely that he had successfully awakened to become a Heavenly Emperor at that time. We suspect that Bai Xiuluo was persuaded by him to join without hesitation, because it is estimated that only the veteran Heavenly Emperor Rozbern can stabilize his strength completely."
