Biyi City was located to the southeast of Dongting Lake. The entire city seemed to be under military management. Most of the residents here served the Biyi Military District.
Biyi's military had a large number of Battlemages stationed here. Their main responsibility was to keep the Giant Lizard Horde at bay. The city was also an important barrier between the Giant Lizard Horde and the cities to the east.
In the vast sky outside the safe zone, a group of snow-white figures were flying toward Biyi City at an extremely fast speed. They landed on the landing pad above the military fortress.
The group consisted of twenty people. They immediately entered the meeting room in the fortress after handing the Heavenly Eagles to the Beast Tamers.
Inside the meeting room, nine Commanders were already seated at a long table. Their eyes were fixed on a map of Dongting Lake projected on the wall.
"Report!"
"Speak!" The Commander standing under the wall looked at the captain of the reconnaissance team who had barged into the room.
"It's true. A large number of Giant Lizard corpses were found to the west of Dongting Lake. We've brought back some samples. I believe we will be able to get the results soon," the captain of the reconnaissance team saluted and said.
"I say, Great Commander Qiu Xin, it doesn't matter if the Giant Lizards are dead. Why are you wasting your time investigating them? Perhaps a new Razortail Drake has been born, and they are trying to secure their position as the leaders of the Giant Lizard Horde. It's not like they haven't had internal conflicts before. Why are you asking us to come here?" said a man with the indolent look of a Commander.
Great Commander Qiu Xin had a rugged face, but he had always been very cautious. He would investigate every little incident that happened around Dongting Lake. There were over ten million people hiding behind the Great Shield Fortress in Biyi City. If they were not prepared before the Dongting Lake Horde attacked, the casualties would be terrifying!
The Commanders waited for a moment in the meeting room. Soon, a military doctor arrived and reported the results of his autopsy.
"Judging from the samples, there are three kinds of deaths among the Giant Lizards. First, they were burned to death by fire. It's likely that many of them were burned into ashes. One was to be pierced through by lightning and die in a single strike. It was a clean and efficient death. Third, they were torn into pieces. The culprit's claws and brute force were extremely strong! "the old military doctor said with a cough.
"Fire, lightning, and brute force?" Great Lieutenant Qiu Xin fell into deep thought. He grasped these important elements and tried to search for a creature in his memories that could possess three types of power at the same time.
However, according to his knowledge, there was no such creature in the vicinity of Dongting Lake.
"Did you find anything else?" asked Great Commander Qiu Xin.
"Oh, according to the investigation team, the area was completely wiped out."
"Completely wiped out?"
"We didn't find any dead Souls. Generally speaking, when an area was filled with dense Yin energy and death energy, undead creatures would also be born, not to mention there were tens of thousands of corpses there. In fact, there are no dead souls there. This means that after the creatures were killed, even their souls were torn apart or taken away, "the old military doctor deduced.
"That's … that's to's's. The Giant Lizards in the west were massacred out of nowhere, and even their souls were destroyed … "said Li Man.
"Who cares, we're more than happy to have something to take care of the Giant Lizards for us. It'll be great if we can kill a few hundred thousand of them. That way, we'll have a much easier time in the next few years," said the lazy Great Commander Zhao Mang with a smile.
"Keep following up on the incident. I'll spread the news and see if anyone knows the truth," said Great Commander Qiu Xin.
The meeting soon ended. Great Commander Qiu Xin went to contact the other battalions and ask the people who knew the truth.
The Hunter Union was the most suitable place to find out what had happened. The members of the Hunter Union were everywhere. Even the military would not dare to set foot in the area.
"What do you think it is? Corpses of the Giant Lizards have been showing up since a week ago, and it's even threatening some of the tribes."
"Who knows, it must be a very strong creature. Judging from the number of corpses we've found, we'll need a troop to eliminate the same number of them."
Great Commander Li Man! She was frowning with a hint of uneasiness on her handsome face.
She was not fond of strange occurrences like this, as it was usually a sign of disaster.
"Captain, tell me the location, I'll investigate it myself!" said Great Commander Li Man sternly as she rose to her feet.
"Well, let's wait …"
"I don't like waiting!" said Li Man.
Saying this, Great Commander Li Man dragged the captain out of the meeting room. The others could not help but shake their heads upon seeing her behavior.
The Queen of the Army was still as hot-tempered as ever. She even wanted to investigate the matter that was most likely related to the internal strife of the Dongting Lake tribe. Or perhaps she was more domineering than a man deep down in her bones. Instead of wasting her time in the Biyi City Army, she might as well go out and seek some excitement …
Tsk tsk, she was a woman who loved excitement!
…
The military headquarters were open to the public. The news that Great Commander Qiu Xin had made public was soon spread to the Southern Army.
The Southern Army was mainly focused on fighting against the demon wolves. Initially, the incident involving the Giant Lizards of Dongting Lake had nothing to do with them, but Great Commander Zhan Kong was very concerned about it.
Not long after Zhan Kong received the news, someone knocked heavily on the door of his room.
"Who is it?" asked Zhan Kong.
"Boss Zhan Kong, it's me, Zhang Xiaohou." Zhang Xiaohou's excited voice came from outside the door.
"I knew you would come, come in," said Zhan Kong with a smile.
Zhang Xiaohou ran into Boss Zhan Kong's room and said excitedly, "Is there any news about Brother Fan? I just heard that something strange was happening at the Dongting Lake Tribe. After connecting the dots with what you've told me, I believe it's very likely to be Brother Fan …"
"I'm not sure, I'll send someone to investigate it. Don't get too excited," said Zhan Kong.
"How can I not be excited? He's my only big brother!"
"That's enough, go back and wait. I'll let you know if there's any news."
"No, Boss Zhan Kong, please let me go to Dongting Lake. There's finally some hope, I have to find Brother Fan at all costs, "said Zhang Xiaohou with a serious face.
"It's none of your business. Besides, you're only going to feed the lizards at Dongting Lake with your current strength."
"It's my business … Boss Zhan Kong, I can take care of myself," said Zhang Xiaohou.
"Idiot, with your capabilities, you'll still die even if you cultivate for another ten years." Zhan Kong impatiently chased Zhang Xiaohou out.
What kind of place was Dongting Lake?
