It was 11 o 'clock at night in the underground space under the ravine.
After spending a total of 23 hours, the Coalition government's army finally arrived near the volcano where the Nightmare Dragon resided after traveling for more than 5,000 kilometers.
At that moment, there were only 176 people left from the army of 200. The 176 people split into a few teams and began searching around.
"That's strange. The coordinates that Gong Sun gave us are around here. Why can't we find the source of the monster horde?" Fu Qingwei looked around while frowning and mumbled to herself in confusion.
As the leader of the Union Government's operation this time, as well as the leader of EA2, she was sure that the information she received this time was authentic.
"Something's wrong here!" Someone from one of the teams shouted all of a sudden.
Fu Qingwei rushed over in a flash.
"There seems to be traces of a battle on the ground. It looks like it was done not long ago," one of the team members said.
The rest of EA2's members landed on the ground and began looking around.
The marks on the ground looked like they were made by a sharp blade. However, monsters with sharp claws could have made such marks too.
Fu Qingwei frowned after staring at it for a while.
"Clear all the monsters around the volcano!"
All the teams stopped investigating and joined the hunting team.
After spending about 20 minutes, they finally cleared the area around the volcano and revealed the ground. The people from the Coalition government finally saw the traces left behind by Bai and the rest. There was also a large amount of blood that seeped into the ground.
"There are many traces of a battle near the volcano. It's obvious that it wasn't caused by a fight between monsters. Moreover, there's a large amount of blood on the ground. It should be less than 24 hours ago. "A few of the EA2 members came to the same conclusion after a thorough inspection.
Someone had taken over!
"There are knife marks, sword marks, frost marks, burn marks, and even bullet marks left behind by Gunners … The area covered by the battle is huge, and it looks like it was a massacre on a large scale. It's obvious that it wasn't done by one person. Only a large team could do this! "
"But who else would know about the Nightmare Dragon apart from us?" Fu Qingwei was a little confused. "That guy called Gongsun said that he didn't tell anyone else when he received the news."
"What if Gongsun lied?" a girl in military uniform asked softly.
Fu Qingwei was stunned. The facts were already in front of her, and there seemed to be no other explanation.
If Gong Sun did not expose himself, the second team would not have found out about the Nightmare Dragon's existence. It would be even more impossible for them to be intercepted.
"If the people from Dynasty weren't killed by the Luotian Sect, my first suspect would be Dynasty." A young man with a buzz cut voiced his opinion. He was also a member of EA2, and his name was Fei Yun.
The first name that flashed through Fu Qingwei's head was also Dynasty because Dynasty was the most capable among all the underground organization teams that came in this time. They were also the most likely to do something like that.
However, Dynasty had been killed by the local organization. She had even sent someone to confirm it when she heard the news a few days ago.
"Maybe it's the Purple Crow or the Saints, or maybe it's the heretics. The heretics have the most tricks up their sleeves. They'll leave quietly after robbing us and won't fight us head-on. That sounds like their style too, "a short hunk said. He was also an EA2 member, and his name was Feng Yong.
Fu Qingwei turned her head and glanced at the white-robed man next to her. "Can you do a divination?"
"The success rate of divination isn't high when a god is involved. But I can try. "The white-robed man nodded.
His name was Cao Zhen, and he was the only fortune-teller in the team.
The Coalition government released the news earlier saying that there were two fortune-tellers who set up a trap. They were afraid that he would become the underground organization's target.
If the underground organization found out that there was only one fortune-teller in the Coalition government, the probability of them assassinating the fortune-teller would be very high.
However, if there were two fortune-tellers, the underground organization would think twice if they wanted to assassinate him. This was because killing one would be useless. It would only be effective if they killed both of them. However, it would be much more difficult to assassinate two people than one. The price that they would have to pay would be much higher too.
Cao Zhen took out a turtle shell and three copper coins. He then placed the copper coins into the empty turtle shell. As he chanted, his hands formed complicated hand seals.
The turtle shell floated in the air and began rolling automatically.
A moment later, Cao Zhen was done performing the hand seals. He extended his hand to catch the turtle shell, but it exploded right away and turned into powder along with the copper coins.
Cao Zhen's hand froze mid-air. He only retracted his hand after a long time and opened his arms at Fu Qingwei helplessly. "It doesn't seem like it's going to work."
"Let's see if there are any clues." Since the divination failed, Fu Qingwei did not let Cao Zhen try again. She pointed at the volcano before them and said, "Check the inside of these few volcanoes too."
Soon, the people from the Coalition government were divided into more than ten teams, and they got to work.
Almost half an hour later, the teams that were responsible for the investigation came back one after another. However, they found nothing.
"It seems like the organization that took the God's Figurine didn't even leave us any leftovers." Fu Qingwei was so mad that she laughed.
"Let's go back to Weiyang City!"
"Are we going back empty-handed?" Feng Yong said, unwilling to give up.
"What else can we do? There's nothing left here! "Fu Qingwei glared at him. She was furious at the moment.
"Let's go back first. The Nightmare Dragon's God's Figurine has been taken and the monster horde has ended. If we want to come down, we can come down at any time. "Cao Zhen quickly gave Feng Yong a look, telling him not to get into trouble again.
"There are many sword and sword cultivators, so it's hard to find them. However, there aren't many ice and fire attribute cultivators, and there are even fewer gun masters." A ferocious gleam flashed through Fu Qingwei's eyes. "Find out when we get out. I'd like to see which organization has the capability to take the God's Figurine before us!"
At the moment, Lin Huang had just fallen asleep in the inn. He had no idea that Fu Qingwei, EA2, and the rest were hating him in the underground space.
However, he roughly estimated that the people from the Coalition government should be arriving at the Nightmare Dragon's location by now.
"The people from the Coalition government should be arriving at their destination soon. I wonder when will the news of the monster horde being stopped spread out." Lin Huang did not fall asleep in his bed. He was thinking about all the things that he had to deal with later. "I'll find a time to leave the Heaven Alliance team and exchange the monster carcasses for resources when the news spreads out.
"The most troublesome thing now is the remaining true god-level will called Gong Sun. If it keeps hiding, the stone tablet won't be able to locate it …"
