The horse-drawn carriage stopped outside the city. Vicky paid the coachman the fare and walked away under the coachman's puzzled gaze.
"This young lady is too daring to leave the city alone." The coachman shook his head and turned the carriage back to the city.
Vicky went over a hill and looked around to make sure there was no one around. She took out her watch again and tapped on the virtual screen a few times.
The ground shook slightly, and the pile of dried leaves in the valley far away fell. A silver spaceship spewed out blue flames and rose slowly, hovering in front of Vicky.
Vicky stepped on the spiral ladder and entered the cockpit.
She took out the silver rod from her bag and inserted it into the hole in the middle of the steering wheel.
"Identity verification successful. Highest authority activated!"
A mechanical notification sounded.
"Go here."
Vicky opened the map and marked a spot.
"Position confirmed. Autopilot activated!"
The mechanical voice sounded again. The spaceship started and disappeared outside Rodu.
…
A spaceship floated above the Boundless Sea Realm.
Xi stared at the data that kept coming back from the virtual screen with a grave expression.
The strange movement under Lantisde caught her attention. She had been observing here for a day.
According to the ancient records, the sinking of Lantisde back then was related to Cthulhu's old lair, R 'yleh City.
However, R 'yleh City had sunk for countless years, and was directly pulled into the underground world. It should have been completely isolated from the Norland Continent. Why would there be a sudden movement?
She had already reported the situation to the underground city, but she was still waiting for a reply.
Right at this moment, her gaze suddenly landed on the virtual screen at the side. There was a bright red dot that was moving quickly.
"It's the signal from the Black Cat."
Xi's eyes lit up, and she immediately opened the map to check.
Miss Vicky from the Roosevelt family ran away from home three years ago, and her whereabouts were unknown.
She had come to the Norland Continent to carry out an observation mission. Before she set off, the Roosevelt Family had asked her to help find Miss Vicky on the Norland Continent, and to give her the signal locator of the Black Cat Spaceship that she was piloting.
However, this was the first time she detected the Black Cat's signal in the past few months.
She used to think that Vicky was not on the Norland Continent, but now it seemed that she might have not activated the Black Cat in the past few months.
"Looking at this route, could she be going to the Far North Icefield?"
Looking at the fast-moving spaceship, Vicky was shocked. She hesitated for a while, but still activated the spaceship.
The huge spaceship rose from the sea and then turned into a stream of light that flew toward the North Pole.
…
Vicky had already changed into a black combat suit. She sat in front of the control panel with a serious expression, looking at the approaching destination.
Her objective for this trip was very simple. She was going to take care of that troublesome ancient invader before returning to Rodu. If she could make it in time, perhaps the performance at night wouldn't have to be canceled, and the Black Cat Opera Troupe would be able to earn a ticket price of 1,000 copper coins.
"I once read in an ancient book that the ancient invaders were very powerful, and couldn't be killed. Therefore, our ancestors could only seal them all over the Norland Continent. Can we kill them?" Vicky murmured to herself worriedly.
"You said it was from ancient times. The Ancients back then definitely did not have as advanced technology as they do now. Let's go up and shoot it with the electromagnetic cannon. Then, the entire ship will focus fire on it and send it to the sky. It's that simple and crude," Vicky answered her own question.
"But …"
"Don't be so wishy-washy. I'll control the spaceship later. I'll show you what absolute firepower is." Vicky smiled, and her eyes were full of excitement.
"What's that?" A mountain range appeared on the screen. It was like a city wall on the snowfield.
The camera zoomed in. Many humans were busy repairing the city wall and setting up spell formations on the mountain range.
"You want to stop the ancient invaders and the million-strong undead army with this wall?" Vicky frowned. She did not see the so-called allied army. She did not even know if they really existed.
"Forget it. Let's go in and take a look."
Vicky deactivated the autopilot mode. She slowly pushed the accelerator lever, and the spaceship suddenly sped up. It flew over the Gus Mountain Range in an instant.
Meg, who was observing the terrain on the mountain, seemed to have sensed something. He looked up at the sky.
Although he did not see any traces of the spaceship, he felt something flying across the sky in that instant.
With such speed and stealth, it had to be Xi.
But why would Xi enter the Icefield at this time? Was she planning to eliminate some of the undead army's forces for the allied army before the war?
Meg and Xi were now semi-allies. They had the same goal and shared the same information on dealing with Cthulhu.
However, this was all based on the premise that Xi took the initiative to share. Meg could not ask her for more information.
For example, he did not know where Xi was these few days, what she was doing, and why she suddenly appeared on the Icefield and went deep into the Icefield.
Of course, with her battleship's performance, as long as she did not get too close to Cthulhu, it would not be a problem for her to wander around the Icefield.
At this thought, Meg looked at his old buddy who was chewing on a bone at the side. Meg could not help but feel envious.
Ah Zi was naturally a first-class mount. On the Norland Continent, there should not be a mount that could fly faster than him, including giant dragons.
As a 10th-tier magic beast, Ah Zi's attack power was actually not strong due to its extreme speed. It was only at the level of spitting thunder balls.
Meg was rather curious about Xi's purpose in entering the Icefield. However, the Icefield was not his home after all. It was not good to enter and leave casually.
He still had to consider Cthulhu's feelings.
If he was angered and summoned a million undead army to the south, then the allied army would have to rush home and fight on their own.
Being the head of the house was difficult!
Meg walked around the mountain and took out a pen and paper to write and draw. According to the terrain, he had basically determined the style and location of the turrets. Next, he should make a trip back to Chaos City and bring the first batch of cannons to the front line.
"I still have to discuss with Jonas about the main cannon. I have to set up a protective spell formation for it." Meg kept the pen and paper and walked down the mountain.
Right at this moment, he suddenly looked up and narrowed his eyes.
"Why is there another one?"
If the previous spaceship was Xi's, then whose was this one?
Could it be that the Ancient One's reinforcements had arrived?
In that case, he had to go and watch the show.
"Ah Zi!"
Meg whistled.
Ah Zi turned its head and shook off the bone that it had been chewing on for a long time before flapping its wings and flying.
"This direction. Fly at full speed!" Meg raised his hand and pointed in a direction as he ordered.
"Howl …"
Ah Zi raised its head and howled. The runes on its wings flowed as it turned into a purple lightning bolt and plunged into the Icefield, disappearing into the horizon.
