Wild Elves that lived in nature were basically creatures that followed their hearts. As long as you had enough strength and showed it to them, they would retreat in the face of difficulties and show great reverence.
Kaede Sato relied on a few elves to successfully repel the notorious monstrous monkey tribe. His reputation immediately spread like a gale in the nearby elves' habitat.
Therefore, Kaede Sato and his men's pursuit of Ranka went very smoothly. Other than some reckless wild Pixies that suddenly appeared and fled in panic, their journey was smooth and unhindered.
Moreover, when they passed by the territories of some wild Pixies, they would receive some small gifts as a sign of goodwill. Along the way, Kaede Sato's Dimensional Backpack had a lot of edible fruits.
Under the treatment of the beautiful flowers, Zephyr quickly recovered from his injuries. With his excellent sense of smell, he successfully led Kaede Sato and his men to the Sunflower Forest where Ranka stayed not long ago and found the place where Ranka camped yesterday.
"Master Sato, the fire in the camp is very new. There's still a little warmth in the fire. I don't think Ranka left for long. Moreover, from the traces of the tents being dismantled in the camp, he seems to be with another person."
After witnessing Kaede Sato's strength with his own eyes, Thomas had completely entered the role of one of Kaede Sato's Power Soldiers. He took the lead and carefully searched the camp, then said to Kaede Sato with a respectful expression.
"You're right. We're getting closer and closer to the enemy. Stay alert. We may encounter the enemy at any time. Once a fight breaks out, your main task is to do your best to contain the other companion next to him. Can you do that?"
Kaede Sato also carefully surveyed the camp. His conclusion was the same as Thomas'. He nodded expressionlessly to Thomas, whose attitude had obviously changed for the better.
In fact, the reason why Kaede Sato kept Thomas alive was to prevent this kind of change from happening. Otherwise, this plan would be as Thomas had thought before. He could complete it alone.
Now that Ranka had another person by his side, the difficulty of carrying out the plan had undoubtedly increased a lot. Thomas, who was originally an insignificant person in the plan, suddenly became important.
If Kaede Sato wanted to carry out the plan, he had to let Thomas share some of the pressure.
"I promise to complete the mission. Even if I die, I will never let another enemy disturb you, my Lord."
Hearing Kaede Sato's words and seeing the expression on Kaede Sato's face, Thomas's face suddenly turned serious. He quickly nodded to Kaede Sato and gave an affirmative answer.
Thomas was very nervous at this time because he also knew that the change brought by another person by Ranka's side was huge. If the success rate of the previous plan was 70%, now it was less than 50%.
But when he thought of his participation in the siege of Ranka and the strength and potential Kaede Sato showed, he finally gritted his teeth and decided to go all the way with Kaede Sato. He had no way out.
"Very well, I will make it quick. You just need to hold on for a while. After that, regardless of success or failure, I will return your things to you. If we win, you will definitely get a share of the benefits."
When Kaede Sato heard Thomas's affirmative answer, a satisfied smile appeared on his face. He patted Thomas's shoulder with his hand and promised solemnly.
When Kaede Sato and Thomas successfully arrived at the camp where Ranka slept yesterday, Ranka and Noda Sasuke had already arrived at the Diamond Canyon dozens of kilometers away on the back of the ancient giant dragonfly and Tutuli respectively.
A large river flowed through the long canyon, but the river water was mixed with a lot of mud and sand, making it look unusually turbid. Although there was a river flowing through the canyon, it was difficult to see any greenery on both sides of the towering canyon.
The reason why the Diamond Canyon was so green was largely due to the rich mineral resources in the canyon.
In fact, in addition to a large open-air diamond mine, the 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 small elves who fed on various ores.
In this huge Diamond Canyon, there were six large elven groups: Big Rock Snake, Coco Dola, Small Rock Fist, Stone Ball, and Iron Rhinoceros.
In order to eat delicious food, these wild rock elves naturally had to excavate a large number of open-air mineral deposits in the Diamond Canyon, resulting in scarce vegetation and serious soil erosion.
There were three reasons why Ranka chose to come to this place:
The first was to look for iron ore for his ace elf, Bosco Dola.
The Boscodora's main food was iron ore. They could absorb the iron elements in the iron ore to temper and repair damaged steel armor, thereby further increasing the defense of the steel armor on their body. At the same time, they could also use the iron elements to gradually strengthen their own physique.
High-content iron ore was Bosco Dola's favorite food. If they didn't eat it for a few days, their bad temper would become worse.
Ranka naturally didn't want his ace elf to be at odds with him. For this reason, he had to come to such a potholed and ugly place to look for iron ore for Bosco Dola.
The second was to look for beautiful diamonds.
The biggest reason why Ranka changed from a man to a woman was naturally due to his thoughts. He used to be a man with a woman's heart.
Therefore, he was also very obsessed with all kinds of gems. He inquired from some Rocket Army veterans in the base that someone had brought back a rare big pink diamond from the Diamond Canyon.
Pink was Lanka's favorite color. Naturally, he had a strong desire for pink diamonds, especially big pink diamonds, which were shiny and sparkling.
The third was to look for Kira, a quasi-divine beast.
The Diamond Canyon, with its large amount of mineral resources, was undoubtedly the paradise of countless rock elves. Therefore, elves like Banjira who liked to devour all kinds of rare ores were naturally attracted here.
In fact, many Rocket Army veterans who had come to the Diamond Canyon had found traces of Kira, but in the end, they missed it due to various reasons.
Of course, this missed opportunity was a good thing for many Rocket Army veterans, because most of those who didn't miss it were buried under thick sand.
Ranka was undoubtedly a very ambitious person. He was very eager for a quasi-divine beast like Kira. If there was a chance, even if he knew that his life was in danger, he would dare to give it a try.
Iron ore was one of the most abundant mineral resources in the Diamond Canyon. Therefore, after Ranka and Noda Yousuke entered the Diamond Canyon, they quickly found an open-air iron mine.
However, this open-air iron mine was now occupied by a small Coco Dola tribe. They showed a very unwelcoming attitude towards the two strangers, Ranka and Noda Yousuke.
"Come out, Bosco Dola. Your favorite iron ore is in front of you. Eat to your heart's content."
Ranka ignored the unwelcoming attitude of the Coco Dola tribe. He directly released Bosco Dola and let him do whatever he wanted.
"Roar!!!"
As soon as Bosco Dola smelled the familiar smell of iron coming from the iron mine, he immediately shouted excitedly, but when he saw the unwelcoming attitude of his kind in front of him, his eyes suddenly flashed with an ominous glint.
The next second, like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, Bosco Dola began to kill in the open-air iron mine.
