Gugugu …
The white dog's stomach heaved up and down violently, as if there was something alive wriggling inside. It continued to grow, as if it was about to burst the dog's stomach.
Looking at the White Fur Dog's stomach expanding several times in a short period of time, its entire body becoming as big as a ball, the expressions of the Limestone Wolf Lord and Lang Man changed. They couldn't understand how the White Fur Dog had fallen into a trap without them knowing.
The Limestone Wolf Lord's figure flashed and appeared beside the white dog. He growled and used wolf language to inquire about the situation while injecting energy into the dog to heal it.
As an incomparably pure energy was injected into the white dog's body, the Limestone Wolf Lord's expression changed. The thing in the white dog's stomach was completely different from what he had expected. It was not a poison, nor was it anything strange.
Instead, it was a formless gas. With his sharp senses, he could naturally sense that this gas contained an incomparably terrifying spiritual energy.
"Hui Hui, don't move! I'll heal you. "
The Limestone Wolf Lord's expression changed. He immediately opened his mouth and spat out a ball of light that enveloped the white dog's body. As the light entered the dog's body, the white dog's swollen stomach quickly shrunk and returned to normal.
Woo woo woo …
The recovered white dog ran over and rubbed itself against the Limestone Wolf Lord's leg, no longer willing to investigate its surroundings. It had been quite frightened just now, and had almost thought that it had died.
It must be known that the white dog's true form was the Winged Wolf, a rare mutated species in the world.
This type of mutated wolf had a far greater resistance to poison and harmful substances than other living creatures. Ever since it was born, it had never encountered something like this. It had really scared it to the point of peeing.
"Leader, what's going on? What poison did Boss Hui get? "
Lang Man asked in a low voice. The Winged Wolf had followed the Limestone Wolf Lord for decades. To the members of the Wolf Army, this giant wolf was like a teacher and leader.
Ever since he joined the Wolf Army, it was the first time Vice Commander Lang Man saw a Winged Giant Wolf being poisoned by poison. Even if it was the most poisonous poison in the north, to the Winged Giant Wolf, it could be eaten like candy.
"Poison …"
The Limestone Wolf Lord shook his head. "This isn't poison. It's a spiritual energy attack. The person who used it is very powerful!"
As one of the level-eight powerhouses of the Northern Lands, the Gray Rock Wolf Lord had encountered countless experts, both big and small, and he had even met powerhouses who specialized in mental energy.
However, compared to the person who used this method, the mental energy experts in the past were far inferior.
"Imprint your mental energy here. Any hounds that come here will be stimulated and lose their sense of smell …"
The Limestone Wolf Lord pointed at the white-furred dog's nose. The dog raised its head and sniffed. Sure enough, its swollen nose couldn't smell anything.
Moreover, this kind of mental energy attack was very ingenious. The stronger the hound, the more intense the attack.
The white-haired dog, on the other hand, suffered the fiercest attack, and its stomach almost exploded.
The Limestone Wolf Lord had encountered this kind of mental energy attack before, but it paled in comparison to the one in front of him.
Not only that, but this kind of mental attack could also hurt the white-haired dog.
It should be known that even without relying on its enormous physical strength, the White Haired Dog's strength was not inferior to that of a level-six cultivator, but it had also fallen into the trap.
"It's a mental energy expert with at least level-seven strength, and it might even be the master of that exotic beast …" the Limestone Wolf Lord muttered softly.
The Limestone Wolf Lord muttered in a low voice. He couldn't help but furrow his brows. As long as he was a martial artist, no one would be willing to deal with an expert who specialized in mental energy.
Powerhouses who specialized in mental energy had too many surprise attacks. Even if they were a realm higher, they would suffer if they were careless, and it would be difficult to track them down, let alone those of the same level.
And a mental energy expert who had reached level-seven had countless strange methods. Just the thought of it was a headache.
Admittedly, the Limestone Wolf Lord's strength had reached level-eight, and with the help of the Winged Giant Wolf, it could be said that he had few opponents in level-eight.
However, that was in a head-on confrontation. Powerhouses who specialized in mental energy were best at long-range attacks. Who would want to fight them head-on?
Even the Limestone Wolf Lord felt a headache at the thought of fighting a level-seven mental energy expert.
Furrowing his brows in thought, the Limestone Wolf Lord glanced at Vice Leader Lang Man and said, "Lang Man, I'll give you a mission. Gray has suffered, so you can't just let it go. Find the person who set up the trap. He might also be the master of that exotic beast. Don't you want the exotic beast as a mount? Kill that person or snatch the exotic beast from him. Isn't this killing two birds with one stone?
"Do your best to complete this mission. I'll wait for your good news."
As the Limestone Wolf Lord said this, he picked up the white-furred dog and comforted it gently, saying that he would bring it to eat something delicious before leaving.
Vice Leader Lang Man stood rooted to the ground, dumbfounded. It was true that he wanted an exotic beast as a mount, and he also wanted to become the Limestone Ridge Wolf Lord. However, he didn't want to court death!
This was a mental energy expert at level-seven. Not to mention Lang Man alone, even if there were three of him, he still wouldn't have the confidence to deal with him.
Just by looking at the Limestone Wolf Lord's attitude, it could be seen how difficult it was to deal with level-seven mental energy experts. With how much the leader doted on the Winged Wolf, if it was someone else who made Gray Boss suffer so much, he would have already chopped that person into pieces.
However, the Limestone Wolf Lord threw this mission to Lang Man. What did this mean? Of course, it was just for show, to comfort Gray Boss.
"If I really went to find trouble with that person, then I must be out of my mind. Moreover, a level-seven mental energy expert isn't someone I can find easily …"
Vice Leader Lang Man muttered. Thinking of such an excuse, he chased after him.
…
At the same time.
In the hospital in the southern district of the inner city, Shi Di lay on the bed with a pale face. His eyes were lifeless, as if he had lost his soul.
Around the bed, many instruments flashed, showing that Shi Di's vital signs were still normal. However, his brain waves were fluctuating violently, going up and down like a roller coaster.
"Mr. Shi Di is in shock. I'm afraid he won't be able to record his statement …"
The medical staff kept a straight face as he spoke to the people from the garrison. He did not have a good expression at all.
In the eyes of the general public, such a huge incident was caused by the incompetence of the city administration and the incompetence of the garrison.
The official explanation was that it was the attack of the dark dwarf army that caused such a huge loss. However, if it wasn't for the inadequate investigation of the garrison and the lack of preventive measures, how could the dark dwarf army have invaded the inner city?
That was an army of ten thousand dark dwarfs, not one or two hundred people. With so many dark dwarfs sneaking in, were the surveillance personnel of the garrison blind?
Faced with the censure of the hospital, from the medical staff to the patients, the personnel of the garrison could only swallow their pride. Who asked the city administration to constantly spread the news that the garrison of Shi Haishan City was incomparably elite, and that one guard could fight against ten thugs?
Now, even if they blew their trumpet, they could only be pointed at and scolded …
Actually, the garrison of Shi Haishan City was very wronged. In terms of combat ability, they were really among the best in the Northern Lands. However, compared to the dark dwarf army, they really could not compare.
"In that case, when Mr. Shi Di wakes up, let us know …"
The two guards laughed dryly and turned to leave dejectedly.
The door to the ward closed. After a while, Shi Di slowly opened his eyes. He was not at all scared to the point of losing his mind.
However, before he could sort out his thoughts, he did not want to come into contact with the garrison, in case he made any mistakes.
Of course, although he was not scared out of his wits, Shi Di was scared out of his wits. Anyone who was involved in a fight between level six and seven elites would feel the fear of the end of the world.
Moreover, Shi Di's true ability was only at level five. Caught in a fight between such elites, he really felt like a small boat in a raging sea, and could be destroyed at any time.
"Thank goodness, thank goodness … I survived. I almost died …"
Opening his eyes and looking at the snow-white ceiling of the ward, Shi Di recalled the frightening scene from before, and his thoughts gradually turned.
He had always been a quick-witted person, and quickly thought of all sorts of problems. The dark dwarf army wanted to attack the third prince, Munthe, and the mysterious third team that appeared later was coming for him.
What was their goal?
Shi Di shuddered, and touched the clothes on his body. It was the clothes he had just changed into. His clothes had been torn to shreds in that clash.
Hu …
Shi Di heaved a sigh of relief. Luckily, luckily all his clothes had been destroyed. The important letters, maps, and parts of the [Earth King Equipment] had all been destroyed.
It was not a pity that these things had been destroyed, but it was a good thing that the letters had been destroyed. They could not see the light of day.
As for the maps and parts of the blueprints, if they were destroyed, then so be it. After all, he had copies, so it was no big deal.
"That faction's target is me, or more accurately, the Shi family. The family should already know about this …"
"Third prince Munthe is also safe and sound. This is great. My future position in the Northern Kingdom will not be shaken …"
Shi Di silently thought about everything that had happened, and finally relaxed. This time, he had not only escaped death, but there should be good things waiting for him in the near future.
As he thought about this, Shi Di fell into a deep sleep, a smile on his face.
…
On the other side.
In the secret chamber of the Northern Kingdom's Shi Hai Club, Hayashi River suddenly froze. The spiritual imprints he had set up in the eastern district of the inner city had been swallowed by something.
"Strange … what triggered all those spiritual imprints …"
Hayashi River was astonished. He had set up many spiritual imprints, close to ten thousand, which was equivalent to ten thousand mini spiritual energy bombs.
Just as the Limestone Wolf Lord had predicted, it was used to target the hunting dogs that were scouting around.
Admittedly, Hayashi River was very confident in his ability to conceal himself. Coupled with the treasures he had, he would not leave behind any traces.
However, he had always been cautious. When he left, he had made some preparations to prevent the hunting hounds with their keen sense of smell from picking up his tracks.
Hayashi River had heard Bayun mention that there was a breed of hunting hounds in the Northern Kingdom that could smell scents that other hounds could not.
Hence, he had set up ten thousand spiritual imprints. They were extremely small, like dust, and were specifically targeted at the hounds.
However, Hayashi River had not expected that these ten thousand spiritual imprints would be triggered at the same time. He wondered if Shi Hai Mountain City had really mobilized tens of thousands of hounds.
Or was there something wrong with his arrangements, causing these spiritual imprints to explode in a chain.
After some thought, Hayashi River cast aside this doubt. In any case, the spiritual imprints would only cause the hounds pain for a while and cause them to lose their sense of smell. There would not be any harm to them.
Unless, of course, a hound had triggered too many spiritual imprints, but the possibility of that was too low.
Turning his head, Hayashi River looked at Bayun. The latter was being knocked on the head by Madam Butterfly with a book, and was dejectedly translating the ancient language of the Centaur Tribe.
That's right, it was the map that Hayashi River had brought back, and it was filled with the ancient language of the Centaur Tribe.
He had thought that Bayun would be able to translate it quickly, but the Centaur Tribe seemed to be eating something. After translating for almost an hour with a pale face, he had only made a tenth of the progress.
"Mister Bayun. Didn't you say that you have great knowledge of the Centaur Tribe's language? "Old Aidan narrowed his eyes and mocked.
It had to be said that bragging was the instinct of a male animal, especially one like Bayun. He had been an expert at picking up girls in the Northern Lands, and his ability to brag had been honed to perfection.
During the journey to the Northern Lands, Bayun had constantly bragged about his achievements in the Northern Lands, including his knowledge. He claimed that he was an expert in the Centaur Tribe's language, and that he had assisted the elders of the tribe in completing and translating the ancient language and incomplete books.
It was also because of this ability that he had been chosen by the elders of the tribe to participate in the secret plan to restore the [Earth King Equipment].
With regards to Bayun's bragging, Hayashi River and the rest really believed it. The main reason was that the Centaur Tribe was strong to begin with, and he looked rather reliable.
Now, he had revealed his true colors. Looking at Bayun's pained expression, Hayashi River shook his head. It was as if he had not done any revision. The pained expression of a student in the examination hall was too vivid.
At the side, Madam Butterfly held a thick book and smashed it on the Centaur Tribe's head like a brick. She said coldly, "To think that you had the cheek to say that your knowledge in the Centaur Tribe was better than that of your genius brother. You only came to Shihai City because you didn't like the fact that the chief was busy. I really believed you back then, you liar! "
Looking at Madam Butterfly's indignant expression, the group of companions imagined what had happened back then. At that time, Madam Butterfly was only 20 years old and still had the heart of a young girl. With the flowery words of the experienced Bayun, she naturally felt that the Centaur Tribe was speaking the truth.
Now that they thought about it, they realized that it was all a lie. Bayun had come to Shihai City not to travel to the Northern Lands, but to have another mission.
"Beautiful Miss Butterfly, why do you care about such a man? Why don't you have a romance with this old handsome man …"
Hayashi stepped forward and said sincerely, but was sent flying with a kick from Bayun.
"Mr. Chuan. Can you help me … "Bayun begged.
Hayashi River curled his lips and despised the Centaur Tribe. Because of this fellow's bragging, he did not study the Centaur Tribe's language in depth on the way to the Northern Lands. There was no time to do so now.
"Mr. Bayun, if you want to take revenge and find out who the real culprit was, you'd better hurry up.
"I'm guessing that this map has a lot to do with the explosion of the experimental base.
"Moreover, the continuous attacks tonight are probably not just because of the Northern King's birthday. With so many factions appearing at the same time, there shouldn't be a reason …"
Hayashi River said slowly.
Hearing this, everyone's hearts trembled. Bayun's expression changed, and he immediately immersed himself in translating the ancient characters on the map.
"Very good, all the best!"
Hayashi River encouraged him coolly. He sat down at the side, poured himself a drink, and looked at the scene on the monitor.
At this time, it was already dawn in Shihaishan City. It was raining, and the sound of water splashing could be heard from the monitor. Hayashi River squinted his eyes and stretched his body, feeling a sense of contentment.
When he stayed in the house, he liked rainy days like this. Listening to the sound of the rain, he felt an inexplicable sense of tranquility.
"Meow …"
Opposite him, the Blue Kitty was lying on the little girl's lap, being fed little by little by Lamila. Grizzly was massaging the little fellow with a massager, feeling very contented.
"Meow …"
The Blue Kitty meowed at Hayashi River, informing him of what had just happened. It had indeed formed an indescribable connection with the Winged Wolf of the Limestone Wolf Lord.
This feeling was like a resonance, which the little fellow had never experienced before.
"Even if this little fellow has transformed, it doesn't look like a wolf!"
"Or could it be that the beast clan that this little fellow belongs to has some connection with the Winged Wolf …"
This was Hayashi River's conjecture.
When there was a chance, he would ask the Fire Gnome Village Chief Li Men. The Fire Gnome had said that his relationship with the Limestone Ridge was passable.
Drinking his beverage, Hayashi River closed his eyes and fell into a half-asleep state, his thoughts also coming to a halt.
After an unknown period of time —
He heard Bayun growl. "It's done. I've already said that my clan's ancient language can't stump me. It's just that I haven't worked for a long time, that's why I'm so rusty."
Opening his eyes, he saw the majestic men and horses dancing with joy. His companions were also pleasantly surprised.
Hayashi River looked at the time. Three hours had passed, and it was already morning.
Just as he was about to get up to see which region was on the map, he saw Old Aidan, Hai Wuya, and Six Hands with solemn expressions. Seeing that Hayashi River had woken up, they hurriedly called him over.
"Mr. Chuan. This is incredible … "Old Aidan said in a low voice.
Hayashi River quickly walked forward and took a look at the map. Actually, he did not see any clues, so he showed it to Mossy Bone.
Immediately, Mossy Bone exclaimed in the earpiece, "This map, the Centaur Race actually has a map of this place?!"
Where was this place?
Hayashi River scrutinized the map. It was different from the map in the database, and there was no similarity.
"A complete sealed region!"
"It's a place with many ancient secret lands, similar to the current Four Major Domains …"
Mossy Bone was silent for a moment before giving his answer.
Hayashi River opened his mouth, finally understanding why the experimental base had been blown up. If this map was exposed to the world, not to mention the northern forces, even the major forces of the Sea-Ao Empire would flock over.
Of course, the Centaur Legion still had its influence, and not many forces could go as far as the north and retreat unscathed.
Hayashi River shook his head. No wonder those level-8 powerhouses would make a move, and that old Fire Gnome Village Chief had indeed concealed the most important information.
