…
Zhao Manyan and Mubai finally returned when the sun was about to rise.
Both of them were in rags, like the crew of a shipwreck who had come to the city begging for food. Their hair was soaked in seawater and dried by the wind. Not only did they look unsightly, they were also emitting a fishy smell.
Zhao Manyan was still smiling like a retard when he saw them, as if he had just found some precious treasure in the ocean.
"Did it work?" Jiang Shaoxu asked, pinching his nose.
"It worked, it wasn't easy at all, but I believe you now," Zhao Manyan blurted out excitedly.
Zhao Manyan was half-convinced when Jiang Shaoxu mentioned the Black Tortoise's other Totem Beasts. After all, Baxia had never mentioned any siblings to him. However, after seeing the skeleton under Dawn Island, Zhao Manyan finally believed it.
Baxia's Totem Seal and the skeleton's Totem Seal were connected to one another, replenishing half of the Totem Seal. It meant Jiang Shaoxu was telling the truth. Apart from Baxia, the Black Tortoise Snake, and the Ocean Skeleton, there were other Totem Beasts. If they could find all the Totem Beasts and combine them, they would be able to construct a Sacred Beast Totem!
It was once one of the strongest Totem Beasts. Zhao Manyan had only followed Mofan to look for the Totem Beasts because he had nothing better to do, but now, he felt like he was about to fall into the trap.
Baxia, the unstoppable aura of the Totem Beast that had trampled across the Venice Bay had already left Zhao Manyan in awe. How shocking would the real Sacred Beast Totem be? Zhao Manyan was slowly approaching it and slowly discovering its true face. Was it still alive, or was it in a deep slumber, just like the Ocean Skeleton? If it was still alive, could he let it fight for him as the guardian of the Totem Beasts? If it was dead, the remaining power of the Sacred Beast Totem Beasts would bring him great benefits!
"What's the name of the creature under the sea?" Mubai asked.
Mubai still had a lingering fear when he recalled the shocking sight of the skeleton under Dawn Island.
"It's the Sea Beast Ao Fu, the ancestor of all the Sea Beasts. Those enormous creatures with shells are related to the Sea Beast Ao Fu," Jiang Shaoxu said.
"How did you know that?" Zhao Manyan asked in astonishment..
"I already told you, to collect the information, my brother's left a lot of them. He mentioned that the Totem Beast's nest under the clouds, too. I mentioned, he mentioned that the Totem Beast's nest under the clouds...'s to the Totem Beasts' nest.. it..... com to tell me, how did it did it bring bring it? did it '? Did it did it bring bring it? Nine's's's's? to tell you..... How? Did it did it it bring bring it it it?' ''s up to tell. Rise rise rise up's...
. "Of course it did. When my wooden fish touched the skeleton … forget it, I'm so tired. I'll explain it to you tomorrow," Zhao Manyan said proudly.
"Mubai, what about the seaweed particles?" Ling Ling asked.
"Don't worry, I've done as you asked," Mubai said.
"That's great, we just have to wait for the results," Ling Ling said.
"By the way, how are we going to deal with that Zhu Qi, and the Councilman behind him?" Mubai asked when he recalled the incident.
It was obvious that the Councilman was the tiger behind the incident. With the Councilman's authority, it was fairly easy for him to let an Elder of an Enforcement Union leave the prison safely. What they had done today had infuriated the Councilman. For the sake of his own election, the Councilman would not let them go so easily.
While everyone was discussing this matter, a judge from Tangyue's side suddenly ran over in a hurry.
"Vice Presiding Judge, Wanggui Town has been sealed off by a group of military personnel from the entrance to the highway. The whole town has been quarantined!" the judge said, his forehead covered in sweat.
"The military? Which military? Our Enforcement Union is in charge of this place. Why would the military come here and set up a quarantine!? "Tangyue was enraged.
"Sister Tangyue, it's most likely Councilman Nan's doing. His election is just around the corner. Since he didn't receive a reply from Zhu Qi, he must have sealed off the place to prevent the others from finding out what happened here," Ling Ling said.
"Didn't we already report the incident to the Lingyin Enforcement Union? Why didn't the Lingyin Enforcement Union do anything about it?" Jiang Shaoxu said.
"It's very likely that the Lingyin Enforcement Union has submitted a higher threat, so Councilman Nan is using it to mobilize the military," Ling Ling said.
"Damn it, how shameless is that guy? So many cities along the coastline are fighting against the sea monsters. Their military is already severely lacking, yet the assh * * * is sending so many soldiers here just to clean up his mess? Doesn't he know these soldiers are more than enough to save the lives of an entire town!?" Jiang Shaoxu cursed angrily.
Jiang Shaoxu's father was in the military. Even his father's men had been transferred to the coastline instead of inland. It had been difficult for Tangyue to even see her father in the past few years. She clearly knew how serious the situation was. However, Councilman Nan had sent so many soldiers to Wanggui Town. The town was supposed to be in danger in just four or five days, yet he still sent so many soldiers here just to prevent the others from finding out what happened …
"If someone like him really becomes a Great Councilman, a lot of people are going to suffer!" Zhao Manyan cursed.
Zhao Manyan finally understood why Tangyue was so stubborn. It was the nature of some Councilmen. They would never repent after ten or twenty years. They would still abandon others when their interests and power were at stake!
"Thud thud thud thud!"
A large group of Battlemages rode their Horned Beasts across Wanggui Town, kicking up a huge cloud of dust.
The broadcast in the town began to play, repeating the same words over and over again.
"Wanggui Town Dawn Island is facing a deadly threat, a deadly virus. The Jiande Mountain Division has taken over the island and is now in charge of quarantine. For five days, the people inside the town are not allowed to leave, and the people outside the town are not allowed to enter. Please try your best to stay in your houses during the quarantine period, and don't move around without permission. All communications will be cut off during the quarantine period!"
"All communications will be cut off during the quarantine period!"
These words lingered in their ears. Jiang Shaoxu immediately took out her phone. As expected, there was no signal at all!
