The wild elves living in nature were basically very obedient creatures. As long as you had enough strength and showed it, they would retreat in the face of difficulties and show great awe.
After Kaede Sato successfully repelled the notorious monkey monsters with his few elves, his fame suddenly spread like a gust of wind among the nearby elves' habitats.
Therefore, Kaede Sato and his party's subsequent tracking of Ranka went very smoothly. Except for some more rash wild elves who suddenly appeared and then fled in panic, they were unimpeded along the way.
Moreover, when passing through the territories of some wild elves, they would also receive some small gifts to express goodwill. Along the way, there was a lot of edible fruits in Kaede Sato's space backpack.
Under the treatment of Melaleuca, Wind Speed Dog quickly recovered from his injuries. With his excellent sense of smell, he smoothly took Kaede Sato and the others to the strange sunflower forest where Ranka had stayed not long ago, and found the place where Ranka had camped yesterday.
"Master Sato, the fire in the camp is very new, and there is still a little warmth in the fire. I don't think Ranka has left for a long time. Moreover, judging from the traces of the tent being demolished in the camp, he seems to be with another person."
After seeing Kaede Sato's strength with his own eyes again, Thomas had completely entered the identity of a strong soldier under Kaede Sato. He took the lead, searched the camp carefully, and then said to Kaede Sato respectfully.
"You are right. We are getting closer and closer to the enemy. Be alert. We may encounter the enemy at any time. Once we fight, your main task is to restrain the other companion around him as much as possible. Can you do this?"
Kaede Sato also carefully surveyed the situation in the camp. He came to the same conclusion as Thomas. He nodded blankly to Thomas, whose attitude had obviously changed.
In fact, the reason why Kaede Sato kept Thomas was largely to prevent such variables from happening now. Otherwise, this plan would indeed be as Thomas had thought before; he could complete it alone.
The variables still happened after all. There was now one more person around Ranka. The difficulty of carrying out this plan had undoubtedly increased a lot. Thomas, who was originally insignificant in the plan, suddenly became important.
If Kaede Sato wanted to continue to carry out the plan, he must let Thomas share some of the pressure for him.
"I promise to complete the mission. Even if I die, I will never let another enemy disturb you, Master."
Hearing Kaede Sato's words and seeing the expression on Kaede Sato's face at this time, Thomas' face suddenly became serious. He quickly nodded to Kaede Sato, and then gave an affirmative answer.
Thomas was very nervous at this time because he also knew that the variables brought by one more person around Ranka were great. If the success rate of the previous plan was 70%, then it was less than 50% now.
But when he thought of his previous participation in the siege of Ranka and the strength and potential shown by Kaede Sato, he finally gritted his teeth and decided to go all the way with Kaede Sato. He had no way out.
"Very well, I will finish this quickly. You just need to persevere for a period of time. After that, regardless of whether I win or lose, I will return your things to you. If I win, you will definitely get your share of the benefits."
When Kaede Sato heard Thomas' affirmative answer, a satisfied smile suddenly appeared on his face. He patted Thomas' shoulder with his hand and promised solemnly.
When Kaede Sato and Thomas successfully arrived at the campsite where Ranka slept yesterday, Ranka and Noda Yousuke had already arrived at the Diamond Canyon dozens of kilometers away on the ancient giant dragonfly and Tudur.
A large surging river passed through the long canyon, but the river was mixed with a large amount of sediment, making it abnormally turbid. Although there was a river flowing through, it was difficult to see any green on both sides of the towering canyon.
The reason why Diamond Canyon had such a rare green appearance was largely because of the rich mineral resources in the canyon.
In fact, in addition to a large open-air diamond mine, Diamond Canyon also had many large open-air mineral deposits such as iron, copper, gold, silver, tungsten, etc.
There was no doubt that such a place with a large number of mineral resources would definitely attract a large number of elves who fed on various minerals.
In this huge Diamond Canyon, there were six large elves groups, namely Big Rock Snake, Codora, Small Fist Stone, Stone Ball, and Iron-armored Rhinoceros.
In order to eat delicious food, these wild rock elves naturally inevitably had to dig a large number of open-air mineral deposits in Diamond Canyon, resulting in sparse vegetation and serious soil erosion.
There were three reasons why Ranka chose to come to this place:
The first was to find iron ore for his ace elf, Boscodora.
The main food of Boscodora was iron ore. They could absorb iron elements in iron ore to temper and repair damaged steel armor, thereby further improving the defense of the steel armor on their body. At the same time, they could use iron elements to gradually strengthen their bodies.
High-content iron ore was Boscodora's favorite food. If they didn't eat it for a few days, their already bad temper would become worse.
Ranka naturally didn't want his ace elf to quarrel with him. For this reason, he had to personally come to such a potholed and unsightly place to look for iron ore.
The second reason was to look for beautiful diamonds.
The biggest reason why Ranka changed from a man to a woman was naturally because of his mentality. He used to be a man with a woman's heart.
Therefore, he was also very obsessed with all kinds of gems. He learned from some veterans of the Rocket Team that someone had brought back a rare pink diamond from Diamond Canyon.
Pink was Ranka's favorite color. Naturally, he had a strong desire for pink diamonds, especially shiny things like pink diamonds.
The third reason was to look for Kira, a quasi-divine beast.
With a large number of mineral resources, Diamond Canyon was undoubtedly a paradise for countless rock elves. Therefore, elves like Banjira, who liked to devour all kinds of rare ores, were naturally attracted here.
In fact, many veterans of the Rocket Team who had come to Diamond Canyon had found traces of the Kira clan here, but they eventually missed it for various reasons.
Of course, this was a good thing for many veterans of the Rocket Team, because most of the people who did not miss it had been buried under the thick sand.
Ranka was undoubtedly a very ambitious person. He was very eager to find a quasi-divine beast like Kira. If there was a chance, even if he knew it was life-threatening, he would still dare to try it.
Iron ore was one of the mineral resources with the most abundant reserves in Diamond Canyon. Therefore, after Ranka and Yusuke Noda entered Diamond Canyon, they quickly found an open iron mine.
However, this open iron mine was now occupied by a small Codora clan. They showed a very unwelcoming attitude towards the two strangers, Ranka and Yusuke Noda.
"Come out, Boscodora. Your favorite iron ore is in front of you. Eat it to your heart's content."
Ranka ignored the unwelcoming attitude of the Codora clan. He directly released Boscodora and let him do whatever he wanted.
"Roar!!!"
As soon as Boscodora smelled the familiar iron smell coming from the iron mine, he immediately yelled in excitement. However, when he saw the unwelcoming attitude of his kind in front of him, his eyes suddenly flashed fiercely.
In the next second, Boscodora was like a tiger that had entered a flock of sheep, and began a massacre in the open iron mine.
