…
The Night Rakshasa led the group forward. They were moving at a very slow pace, as they were not allowed to use their spells freely.
After passing through the mountain range near the cone-shaped volcano, they entered a valley with a silver-blue long river. The terrain of the valley was very open, and they could see a grey-silver town inside.
The town hadn't suffered much damage and was relatively well-preserved. Probably because the residents here had completely migrated not long ago, the whole town seemed to still be alive. Even the streets looked very clean.
The Silver Blue River Valley … Was the Commander hiding here to recuperate?
Mofan used his Dragon Senses to observe the surroundings, including the mountains further away, to make sure there were no signs of the sea monsters or the Viscera Demons.
"You guys, go to the mountains and keep an eye on the situation. Send us a signal at once if there's any sign of the sea monsters. Do you understand?" Pang Lai instructed the Royal Mages.
The Royal Mages were all middle-aged men. One or two of them even looked familiar. They had most likely attended some important events in the Magic Association. They were the experts of the Forbidden City.
Even though their cultivation had reached the peak, they were still very cautious.
According to Pang Lai's instructions, the three Royal Mages were assigned to three mountains close to the Silver Blue River Valley. They were not too far away from each other.
"Let's go, we've brought the Dawn Scroll. It should be able to help the Commander recover faster," Pang Lai said.
The Royal Mages' mission was not to rescue the Commander. As a matter of fact, it was impossible for them to rescue a Forbidden Mage from a ruler of the Pacific Ocean with their cultivation.
What they really wanted to do was to deliver the Dawn Scroll to Chief Hua.
This was a magic scroll engraved with the Great Healing Method. By chanting the forbidden language inside, one could cast a pure Great Healing Spell on one of them. Even a Forbidden Spell Mage would be able to recover their life force, mental state, and damaged soul in a very short time.
"Night Rakshasa, are you sure the Commander is here?" Ye Mei asked doubtfully.
The Night Rakshasa ran along the street until she reached a hexagonal fountain square in the middle of the street. The fountain square was surrounded by tall buildings.
The floor of the fountain square was not made of flat floor tiles, but of translucent blue tempered floor glass. Looking down from the glass floor, one could see the water flowing out of the hexagonal fountain in an extremely beautiful vortex.
Many of the buildings around the plaza had glass walls, which made the hexagonal fountain plaza very contemporary and artistic. It could be considered a symbol of Silver Blue River Valley City.
The Night Rakshasa ran a few laps around the hexagonal fountain. After a while, she picked up a military glove from the clean water.
The gloves were very thin, and there were still bloodstains on them. Who knew how long they had been soaking in the spring?
"Where's Chief Hua?" Ye Mei asked anxiously when she saw the military gloves.
Military gloves. The Night Rakshasa had only found a pair of military gloves. Military Chief Hua was nowhere to be found.
"Does the blood belong to General Hua?" Jiang Yu asked.
The Night Rakshasa nodded.
She had followed the scent here, but how would she know it was only General Hua's glove in the spring?
"The question is, why would General Hua leave the bloody glove here? Was he trying to confuse the sea monsters?" Pang Lai asked.
"I think it's more like they are trying to bait us," Mofan said.
As soon as he finished the sentence, a few of the Mages of the Forbidden City were alerted by danger signals from the mountains nearby.
Pang Lai's expression shifted.
Was this a trap set up by the sea monsters?
They knew the humans would send experts to rescue General Hua, so they purposely left a bloody glove that General Hua had left behind when he was fighting the Blackclaw Emperor to lure the humans into the trap?
"These cunning sea monsters, let's go!" Pang Lai could not help but curse.
Ye Mei glared at the Night Rakshasa.
The Night Rakshasa was innocent. How would she know it was a trap set up by the sea monsters before she arrived?
"Night Rakshasa?" Jiang Yu carried the Night Rakshasa in his arms and patted her head comfortingly, "It's fine, I believe you will be able to find General Hua."
"Meow ~" the Night Rakshasa cried out, as if she was trying to tell Jiang Yu something.
Jiang Yu listened attentively. He then scanned the surroundings, looking for something.
Not long after, the Great Mages who had been assigned to keep watch at the mountain ridge returned. Every one of them had a solemn expression on their faces.
"Leader, we are surrounded. The Viscera Hunters are coming from the west. "
"The Devil Rays are coming from the south too."
"There are a few great demons in the north. They are climbing over the mountains …"
The three Mages reported simultaneously.
The news was basically announcing their deaths. Pang Lai had a stern look as he observed the terrain of the Blue Milky Way Valley.
"Leader, what are you waiting for? Pick a place and fight our way out. Are we going to die here?" Ye Mei raised her voice.
"Don't panic, instead of scattering, why don't we set up the Heavenly Bottle Magic Formation here and look for a chance to escape? Have you done what I asked you to do?" Pang Lai asked the three Royal Mages.
The three court Great Mages nodded in unison.
"That's good to hear!" Pang Lai's expression softened as he gave the order seriously.
"Ye Mei, go channel the water, make sure the water source is not cut off."
"Guard the north, south, east, and west. Head to the entrance of River Valley City at once, which is the mouth of the bottle.
"The rest of the people in the city … kill!"
Pang Lai's aura was intimidating. He had transformed from an old man into the commander of the army. His raised beard and sharp gaze were imperious!
Mo Fan had never seen Pang Lai acting like this before. Most of the time, Pang Lai was like an amiable old professor with a huge hat. He was full of knowledge, but he was powerless. However, after sensing Pang Lai's current aura, Mo Fan could not help but be impressed by the leader of the Royal Mages.
Pang Lai stood in the middle of the street and began to cast a spell.
He was a well-known Formation Mage in the country, but Mo Fan had always been clueless about the secrets of formations. He knew nothing about formations.
"What's the Heavenly Bottle Magic Formation?" Mo Fan asked Jiang Yu beside him.
Jiang Yu was absent-minded. He was still looking around him.
"Did you find anything?" Mo Fan asked.
"The Night Rakshasa said she didn't just smell the bloody glove. There must be something else," Jiang Yu replied.
