Chapter 917: Chapter 918 Enemy Tracks

"You must be the Divine Beast he called for help, right?" Dou Yanlan looked very certain; Qi Chen was startled for a moment and quite surprised, but upon closer thought, he realized it wasn’t impossible. Among the Divine Beasts, Lorraine Tower and Gitalien had human forms, and it wasn’t out of the question that other Divine Beasts might manage the same.

The youth laughed heartily as he eyed Dou Yanlan and said,

"Yes, you guessed right. Can you guess exactly who I am?"

"I can’t do that—there are too many Divine Beasts unknown to humans in this world."

Shaking her head, Dou Yanlan spoke. Feng Yuan didn’t know which exact Divine Beasts she knew, so naturally, she wouldn’t make a random guess, as that would be meaningless. The youth laughed loudly and said,

"You are indeed straightforward. I’m just resting here for one night; I won’t disturb you."

"What do you mean by ’disturb’? What are you talking about?"

Qi Chen looked at the youth speechlessly, Liao Yu, holding his forehead, said helplessly,

"Could you please not cause trouble for others?"

The youth glanced at Liao Yu without responding; Qi Chen looked at the youth again, speechless, wondering which Divine Beast could possibly have such a... unique personality.

"Speaking of which, who exactly did you ask for help?"

Agunas looked curiously towards Feng Yuan, who was mixing drinks for everyone. Feng Yuan paused and then said,

"What? Is there a problem?"

"It’s not that, just curious—who could you possibly find at this time?"

It was apparent that Lorraine Tower and others were busy; Feng Yuan couldn’t possibly have asked them for help. As for other Divine Beasts, most of them had their own matters to attend to, especially after sorting things out in Odinis, there was still a lot left undone.

"Delong Tower ah, there’s hardly anything in the Starlit Sea that needs its attention; isn’t it just perfect to have it come over?"

Feng Yuan asked somewhat strangely, given that the Starlit Sea was quite peculiar in itself. Delong Tower usually didn’t need to manage anything too significant there, which is why he dared to ask it for help.

"I see, I was wondering who you had managed to bring over."

Agunas seemed to understand; naturally, it also knew the situation of Delong Tower, which was nearly always idling in the Starlit Sea. Having Delong Tower to help was quite suitable. As for other Divine Beasts? Most were busy, and not all of them had good relations with Feng Yuan, so the actual help he could get wasn’t much.

"Seeing you breathe a sigh of relief, you didn’t think I brought Eclipse or Xilnais, did you?"

Feng Yuan looked somewhat speechlessly at Agunas, flicked his tail, then Agunas glanced at Feng Yuan and said,

"What else? You never know what you might do."

"They are busier than Lorraine Tower. Those Resurrectors have been causing trouble non-stop; they simply don’t have the time to help."

Shrugging helplessly, Feng Yuan spoke. He didn’t specifically know what was going on with those Resurrectors; logically, there shouldn’t be so many, but although their numbers might be a bit high, it wasn’t a big deal for them, just a bit troublesome, hence Feng Yuan didn’t bother with it.

"Resurrectors, eh..."

Agunas sighed. These improperly regulated beings indeed posed quite a problem as they had strong resistance against the Divine Beasts’ ultimate moves, making dealing with them quite troublesome. Fortunately, there weren’t too many of them; otherwise, they wouldn’t get much rest at all.

"Tsk! Are you that eager?"

Delong Tower got up from Feng Yuan’s bed and muttered as it looked out the window. Qi Chen, awakened by Delong Tower’s movement, got up and glanced at it, then asked somewhat groggily,

"What now?"

"It’s none of your business, good kid, go back to sleep."

Delong Tower didn’t answer Qi Chen’s question but left these words and turned away from the dormitory. Stunned, Qi Chen said speechlessly,

"What good kid? What is Delong Tower talking about?"

Delong Tower completely overturned the impression of Divine Beasts in Qi Chen’s eyes; unlike other mature and stable Divine Beasts, it seemed a bit different. However, it seemed that Agunas and Veronia were not particularly stable either. Thinking this, Qi Chen sighed. Ah Mu looked at Qi Chen, puzzled.

"I don’t know what exactly happened."

Looking at the dim sky, Qi Chen was puzzled. He didn’t understand what Delong Tower had discovered that made them leave suddenly. It seemed that he hadn’t noticed anything unusual.

"Strike at Maomu City? A decoy? But it might also be a two-pronged attack."

Putting on the Wolf God’s Robe, Feng Yuan glanced at the soundly sleeping Xiao Ji and thought for a moment before poking Xiao Ji and saying,

"Wake up, there are enemies."

Xiao Ji suddenly opened his eyes and jumped up. Seeing Feng Yuan dressed in the neat Ritual Robe, Xiao Ji naturally didn’t think he was joking. Veronia glanced at the black night sky outside the window and said with some confusion,

"Take action at this time?"

"I don’t know. Delong Tower said that they have already taken action at Maomu City, I don’t know if there will be another group of enemies here."

"Are you worried that they will attack both places at the same time?"

Agunas looked at Feng Yuan and said, nodding, Feng Yuan replied,

"We have to be cautious. Moreover, attacking Maomu City is the most senseless thing. Even if I were there, how could attacking Maomu City strike a blow to Great Xia?"

After all, it was just an ordinary city in Great Xia. Even if attacked, it wouldn’t likely cause much damage to Great Xia, but rather could easily provoke Great Xia’s retaliation.

"Indeed, what exactly is their purpose?"

Agunas was somewhat puzzled. Even harassing Yognot didn’t make sense, especially since the population in the Cha Mu Town area wasn’t dense. Even if Yognot were awakened, it wouldn’t be a devastating blow to the entirety of Great Xia.

"I don’t know, but let’s go out for a patrol first. If something’s wrong, we’ll deal with it then."

"So that’s the idea you’re playing with?"

Looking at a letter in his hand, Old Wei thoughtfully tossed the letter, and the darkness swallowed it. Old Wei murmured,

"If that’s the case, it’s likely going to be a tough battle. We probably still need to find a way to pull him in to confront them together."

"Do you think so too? Then let’s take action. Inform our old friend first; if they can assist from the side, it might not be so troublesome."

Old Wei said in a low voice, picked up the black cloak from the table, draped it over himself, and blew out the candle on the table. The room plunged into darkness as it lost its last light source.

"Did I misjudge?"

Feng Yuan wandered doubtfully through the forest at night, one hand holding the Ancient Book, hovering just above the ground, while Xiao Ji continuously surveyed the skies trying to spot hidden enemies.

"Nothing found. Could it be not now?"

Agunas was a bit puzzled, but Veronia shook her head and waved her hand, sending a crystal-like light scattering in all directions. The trees, touched by the crystalline light, appeared somewhat eerie at night. Agunas looked at Veronia in surprise, not understanding what she intended, but Feng Yuan seemed to understand something and said to the Little Green Snake,

"Check around, see if there’s any special spatial layer."

The Little Green Snake nodded. Although it hadn’t solved its own evolution problem yet, that was not urgent. Currently, it needed to help Feng Yuan, so naturally, it chose to pause its own issues.

Wiggling its tail, the Little Green Snake hissed and pointed in a direction with its tail as if trying to say something. Agunas, seeing this, translated,

"That direction has a special abnormal spatial layer, but how could that be? How could they have that ability?"

Glancing at the puzzled Agunas, Feng Yuan said with a slight amusement,

"Isn’t Nierlat in Xingchan? They are also one of the enemies, don’t you think Nierlat can’t produce such special spaces?"

"They’re entering the fray directly?!"

Agunas was momentarily stunned and exclaimed angrily. They all dared not enter the fray directly for fear of causing big trouble, but Nierlat had the audacity to do so.

"Strictly speaking, not really? After all, its true form might not have entered directly, just provided the tools."

Feng Yuan thought for a moment and added, as Nierlat was quite special, managing mechanisms of a distinct authority, although limited to the Divine Land Region. Accordingly, any mechanisms left over from the Mythical Era within the Divine Land Region could be crafted by it as long as the materials were available. Therefore, a significant part of its strength could be considered external.

And the mechanical devices it created weren’t a part of its true form. If it merely produced those items for Xingchan’s people to use, it was difficult to say that it had personally entered the fray.
