In the center of the Chasm Battlefield that was covered by dark clouds, there was a huge basin. At this moment, there were already many figures moving around. These people were dressed in secret. Their bodies were dark grey and their faces were painted with a grey-colored substance. Their aura was incomparably restrained. They crawled forward like dead creatures.
Their identities were not surprising. They were all scouts. They were here to gather information on the battlefield and find out the enemy's military layout.
In this place, spiritual sense was useless. If one wanted to gather information on the enemy, they could only rely on their naked eyes. Other than that, many instruments and treasures were useless.
There were more than twenty people in this scout team. They were scattered around the huge basin. Each of them was an important position in the center of the battlefield. They had a secret method to communicate with each other. Once they found something, they would immediately report it.
They carefully moved forward, trying their best to hide their bodies in this barren battlefield because they knew that the other side would definitely have scouts here as well. There would definitely be people from the other side in every important position. After all, the other side was not stupid. If they were accidentally exposed, they would be dead for sure.
Death was still good. The worst case scenario was to be captured and then have their soul searched.
"I hope everything goes well today!"
Li Xiaolu crawled under a diamond-shaped gravel. He was motionless. He stared ahead and muttered to himself.
He was a disciple of the Star Sea Divine Palace. Twenty years ago, the Palace Lord killed the Holy Son of the Golden Crow Clan and started the war. Because of this, the people of the Star Sea Divine Palace were very confused. Many of them were very afraid and wanted to leave.
At that time, the Palace Lord appeared.
That was the first time Li Xiaolu saw the Palace Lord's imposing figure. It was so great and so immortal. It was like a majestic divine mountain that was projected in the sky.
He still remembered that after the Palace Lord's projection, everything changed. Everyone's heart was filled with a kind of calmness and unprecedented confidence.
Later, the Palace Lord said a lot. Some people left, but more people stood up and joined the army. They came to the Chasm Battlefield to fight to the death with the enemy.
"I'm afraid of death. But if I have to die, I'll choose to die beautifully!"
He did not know who said this but he would always remember it in his heart.
For this reason, he chose to join the scout team and became a member of the Star Sea Divine Palace's scout army.
"Eh, that rock in front … is it the enemy's scout?"
Li Xiaolu's eyes suddenly lit up. Just a moment ago, he saw a gray stone a few kilometers away suddenly move to the left.
Although the movement was very small, he was sure that his eyes were not playing tricks on him.
How could the stone move?
The enemy's scouts must have thought that there was no one nearby and were preparing to move forward and expand their search area.
However, he didn't expect that he would still be in a rock a thousand meters away.
"It's been an hour. Fortunately, I didn't move. Otherwise, I would have been discovered!" Li Xiaolu sighed. If he was discovered, he would be surrounded, captured, interrogated, and soul-searched.
He was dead for sure.
In the distance, the rock moved again. It shifted slightly, and it seemed to have lost its patience. The frequency of its movements increased.
"It really is the enemy's scout!"
After confirming that there was no mistake, Li Xiaolu sneered in his heart. However, he still did not move. Instead, as his mouth opened and closed, he silently spat out a few ancient runes. A faint connection was suddenly born.
In his mind, a silver starlight rune rotated gently as the runes were spat out. Somehow, it formed a connection with the other runes around it.
This was the Star Sea Divine Palace's secret communication method. It was a method for the scouts to communicate with each other. It was very difficult to be discovered. However, it should not be used unless it was absolutely necessary. After all, it was better to be safe than sorry.
"Number Two, what's the matter?" A cold voice came from the rune in his mind.
Li Xiaolu knew that it was their captain.
"Captain, I found the enemy's scout!"
Li Xiaolu said in his heart. His voice was then transmitted to the other party's mind.
"Where is it?"
"It's 1,600 meters in front of me. The approximate coordinates are xxx, xxx!"
"Are you sure?"
"I'm sure," Li Xiaolu said.
The basin in the center of the battlefield had long been drawn into a huge plan by both sides. Every position was delineated with a detailed coordinate range. The size of the battlefield was no secret. Based on the distance and position he had stealthed, he would be able to calculate the coordinates with a little estimation.
"But Captain, the target is currently moving to the left, and it's getting faster and faster!"
"Got it. Number Two, keep an eye on him. If anything happens, report to me immediately. Every minute, report his position!" The captain's voice rang out. He paused for a moment, then continued.
After pausing for a moment, the captain continued, "Number Four, Number Eleven, and Number Sixteen are relatively close to you. I've already informed them to hurry to the enemy's position. They'll arrive in about an hour. Try to capture the enemy alive!"
"Understood!"
Li Xiaolu nodded and quietly waited.
At the same time, several gray figures in the distance slowly shifted their positions, cautiously creeping toward the position Li Xiaolu had reported.
They moved very slowly, constantly paying attention to their surroundings to avoid being discovered.
After all, who knew if the enemy's scouts were hiding nearby? If they were surrounded, they would be in trouble.
Five minutes later, Li Xiaolu had been keeping an eye on the enemy. At this moment, his position was several hundred meters lower than his initial position. During this period, he had been reporting his position every minute. He was very cautious.
A voice sounded in his mind. "Number Two, they've arrived. Be careful and surround them immediately!"
"Yes!"
Li Xiaolu nodded. The next moment, his body moved little by little, his eyes fixed on the front, crawling toward the enemy little by little.
He was very cautious and careful. During this period, many of his teammates had been captured by the enemy. He had seen several of them with his own eyes, so he was even more careful.
"The target has been locked on. Now, capture him. Don't give him a chance to release the signal!"
"Understood!"
Li Xiaolu suddenly stood up and rushed towards the enemy at high speed. At the same time, a few hundred meters away, several grey figures also stood up and rushed towards the target in an encirclement.
But at this moment, for some reason, Li Xiaolu's heart tightened. This was because the target remained motionless, as if he had accepted his fate and did not run.
"Not good …"
His heart turned cold and he immediately shouted, "Don't go, that's a trap!"
But it was too late.
