Chapter 826: Chapter 413: Arriving at Calamity City_2

"I..." Long Kongkong was somewhat bewildered by the question from his teacher. Isn’t that so? Although he was eager to enter the Wraith Kingdom to save his brother, when it really came down to what he should do upon entering, he realized he had never considered this question.

Because all along, he had been following Long Dangdang’s lead. Whatever his older brother did, he just needed to follow; there was no need to use his brain. Now faced with this question, he was indeed taken aback because he truly did not know what he should do. The Wraith Kingdom was entirely an alien world, filled with hostility, and furthermore, the territory it now occupied had also become vast. Searching for a person in such a place was like looking for a needle in a haystack, not to mention, he couldn’t even conceal his own aura. He was afraid that soon after entering the Wraith Kingdom, he would be surrounded by wraiths.

The other members of Demon Hunter Team 19115897 were also listening beside him, all involuntarily showing bitter expressions, including Ling Menglu.

When Long Dangdang was around, they really didn’t feel anything special, but after Long Dangdang left, they realized that as the team leader, he was not just the person who always stood at the forefront of the team, but also the brains of the team. Even with Ling Menglu’s intelligence, as long as Long Dangdang was there, she would be too lazy to think, relying entirely on Long Dangdang to command everything.

Indeed, now even if they were to enter the Wraith Kingdom, what could they do? They had no means of concealment, no ability to escape from the battlefield. Just the six of them, no matter how talented, would be like lambs to the slaughter in the face of the wraith legion.

Na Ye had said, and Ling Menglu had considered it, and precisely because she knew they could do nothing, she felt even more helpless. And it was only at this moment that Long Kongkong realized this problem.

Na Ye sighed deeply and said, "Stay here. Don’t mention you guys, what about us? Entering the Wraith Kingdom is like entering another world. Your brother has many means to protect himself, including teleportation equipment and scrolls. Now, we can only choose to trust him. He has always been a sufficiently calm person. Even if he cannot save your parents, I believe he can return safely. What we can do now is to cooperate with the army, launch a war against the Wraith Kingdom, and try to tie down the major forces of the Wraith Kingdom here as much as possible. If we can achieve some results on the battlefield, then your brother’s pressure will naturally be lesser."

Everyone nodded slowly; yes, this was the best response for now. And what Long Kongkong was most worried about now was his bloodline responding, sensing danger befalling his brother. But at least, that had not happened yet.

Ling Menglu said, "We are always willing to join the battle. Moreover, I assure you, we will not do anything impulsive. Dangdang chose to go on his own to keep us safe, and what we can do for him now, just as you said, is to tie down the main forces of the Wraith Kingdom on the battlefield here. The only question is, when does the war start?"

Na Ye said, "The war against the Wraith Kingdom is a complex affair that could trigger a chain reaction, but the preparations should already be almost complete. Especially since Dangdang has penetrated deep behind enemy lines, the Sacred Legate is paying great attention and will likely move the war forward, probably within this coming week."

"One more week?" Long Kongkong asked somewhat anxiously.

Reckless Knight Hai Jifeng spoke gravely from the side, "This is not a matter to be rushed. However, we have already made the decision to launch a war, and the Wraith Kingdom has started to concentrate its military forces. Kongkong, as your cultivation grows, your Elemental Vortex Spirit Furnace plays a very important role on the battlefield, truly capable of weakening the strength of the Wraith Kingdom. So, once the war starts, you must stay close to us to ensure safety. Try to maximize your unique capabilities."

Now, Long Kongkong felt his heart was very chaotic, truly chaotic. After Long Dangdang wasn’t around, he felt like a headless fly. When they were together every day, he didn’t feel it, but having really parted, he then realized how strong his dependence on his brother had been all this time.

...

Long Dangdang was sitting in the nightmare carriage, pretending to rest, but in reality, his spiritual power was constantly observing everything outside, always sensing changes in the surroundings. He needed to clearly memorize the location of Calamity City; this information would be greatly useful to the Federation.

The flying speed of the nightmare flying steed, although not comparable to Little Eight, was still stable. The fluctuations of the darkness element in the air carried the nightmare flying steed and the carriage swiftly through the night.

This was probably why they had decided to set out at dusk. Judging by the distance, they should be able to arrive within a day.

Darkness did not affect the judgment of spiritual power—the specific direction and flying trajectory were firmly memorized by Long Dangdang. At the same time, he was also pondering whether he really wanted to participate in this courtship for the Wraith Princess, or perhaps, after arriving in Calamity City, he would silently disappear from the group and quickly search for his parents.

After a brief contemplation, Long Dangdang had reached a conclusion in his heart. If even a place like Stone Gate City had Saint Hall Level powerhouses, then Calamity City, being the capital and core of the Wraith Kingdom, would definitely have even more powerful figures; this was not a level he could contend with at the moment. Rashly leaving the courtship team would definitely raise alarm; disappearances couldn’t just happen mysteriously, right?

Therefore, he decided to first follow the courtship team to see how things would go. With so many people courting the Princess, it surely wouldn’t be concluded in a short time, and likely not just teams from Stone Gate City would be there. The selection would probably also take some time, and staying hidden within the courtship team was definitely the safest option. This way, he might find the possibility to search for his parents. At the same time, he could last nine days, and after nine days, he could possibly make another long-distance transfer. This way, he could advance or retreat as needed.

If it came to the last moments of the courtship and he hadn’t been eliminated yet, he would play it by ear, and if worst came to worst, he could just sneak away then.

Long Dangdang felt lucky to have found such an opportunity; without it, he wouldn’t even be able to think about safely searching within Oracle City.

The flight lasted about six hours, and then the nightmare carriage started to lower in altitude. At that moment, Long Dangdang also restrained his spiritual exploration. Approaching Calamity City, who knew what kind of powerful wraiths might be there. It’s better to be cautious.

About a quarter of an hour later, a slight feeling of weightlessness gradually disappeared, and the nightmare carriage landed smoothly on the ground. Long Dangdang quietly used his spiritual power to scout momentarily and, sure enough, a gigantic city sprawled ahead. The carriage didn’t head directly into the city but landed outside it; this must also be a rule of Calamity City.

At the same time, he had already made a definite judgment in his heart: Calamity City was the former North Sea City, the Federation’s key town in the north, adjacent to the North Sea, with rich fishery resources. To the east of the North Sea, there were still a large number of islands. The origin of wraith entities was probably also in this area.

Gathering his focus, Long Dangdang unconsciously tightened his fists. "Dad, mom, I’ve arrived. And Hep Benn, I will definitely do my utmost to rescue you all."

At that moment, the city gates of Calamity City swung wide open, a pair of wraith knights in neat armor slowly walked out from inside and left a pathway ahead clear. In the center, a headless Fear Knight riding a huge nightmare demon steed slowly emerged.

"Fear, long time no see," called out the high-pitched voice of the Wraith Mage, clearly the leader of Stone Gate City’s courtship team.
