Chapter 490 - 490 Ambushing the Scorpion Race's Remnants
490 Ambushing the Scorpion Race’s Remnants
“I don’t know! That shouldn’t be the case! How many people from the Alliance of Gods died in our Kingdom of Dawn? I heard they haven’t even cleared the corpses at the border. Those foreign races suffered a heavy casualty, and they peed their pants when they saw the battlefield. How dare they provoke us? Are they tired of living?”
“This military camp is really strange. I heard it is not a rare treasure building. It looks so small, but it seems to be full of things. If I have the opportunity to look inside, it will be great to broaden my horizons!”
“What are you thinking? That’s an important military location. How could anyone enter casually!”
“Tsk, tsk. Although I can’t see what’s going on with the army inside, I can feel a murderous aura. It’s very likely that a war is about to break out. Could it be that the Country Lord was not satisfied after exterminating so many members of the Alliance of Gods and was planning to send people to cause trouble for them? Isn’t it impolite not to return the favor?”
“Yes, yes, yes. I think that’s the reason.”
Many commoners were talking about it, and all kinds of speculations were circulating, but they were only limited to discussion and curiosity.
“Eh? Was there a big move? Or are there foreign races who aren’t afraid of death and are here to cause trouble?” Young Master Xu Kong hadn’t been able to display his strength and make a name for himself, and he had been brooding over this for a long time.
At this moment, he seemingly sensed a strong murderous aura. It was evident that the army of the Kingdom of Dawn was about to start a war again.
“Li Xiang, we want to go with you. Xiaoyue’s Recovery Halo is very useful.”
Somehow Yang Mi suddenly appeared behind Li Xiang.
At this time, she was wearing exquisite red armor, looking valiant and heroic, without any trace of exhaustion from last night.
Li Xiang turned his head and looked over. Yang Mi’s eyes flickered slightly, and her cheeks were slightly red.
“You don’t have to go. This time, the battle won’t be on the surface but underground. It’s very narrow there, so it’s very difficult to perform the ability.”
Then, he gave them a brief description of the information that Zhao Sheng had obtained. “You guys should stay at home and prepare for the rescue. Hundreds of thousands of people have been imprisoned by the Scorpion race. I’m afraid that they’re not in good condition.”
Hearing this, Yang Mi and the others could immediately picture the tragic scene of countless people in the underground world in their minds. They could not help feeling agonized in their hearts.
“All right, I’ll immediately gather people to prepare food, medicine, and a place to settle down. You have to be careful yourself. We’ll all wait for you to come back.”
Her voice was extremely gentle at this time, no different from an ordinary woman who was sending her husband off to war.
Although Alice was leading this time, Li Xiang would also follow. Only his halo skill could better help the Human civilians survive.
It was just that he didn’t need to go deep into the ground to fight.
Moreover, the Scorpion race had already been crippled in the previous battle. Even if there were some surviving members, they wouldn’t be able to pose much of a threat to the Army of Dawn.
He didn’t believe the Scorpion race would be able to cause any waves with their current strength.
“Don’t worry. If everything goes well, I’ll be able to come back and have dinner with you guys tonight!”
He lifted Yang Mi’s cheek and planted a kiss on her red lips. Then, he bade farewell to Zhou Yutong and the others, turned around, and left.
Not long after, orderly footsteps could be heard coming out of the military camp. Then, they quickly went to the teleportation square and arrived at North City.
They boarded the Void Warships from North City and arrived above a mountain in less than ten minutes.
Li Xiang stood on the deck of the warship, looked down, and asked, “Zhao Sheng, are they at the hillsides below?”
“Yes! We left a True Vision Guard in that space. Not only can it monitor the enemy, but it can also locate them.”
“Send someone down and find the entrance to the underground!”
“Yes, my Lord!”
Following Li Xiang’s command, hundreds of Eye Demons and Vine Whisker Demons instantly descended from the sky.
The Eye Demons turned into phantoms and started to patrol the mountain, while the Vine Whisker Demons went underground to find the entrance to the mountain.
Soon, the Eye Demons sent back a message that they found a tunnel to the underground cave.
The Scorpion race obviously dug out this passage. However, they would conceal it again afterward.
Just by looking at the hundreds of Vine Whisker Demons, people knew they had opened the passage.
Li Xiang did not intend to go underground, so he turned to Alice and said, “I’ll leave the rest to you.”
“Yes, my Lord!”
Li Xiang nodded and instantly activated his halo skill and the triple defense and recovery bonus on his armor.
Alicia was the best friend of Alice, so she followed along this time.
After they received the order, they immediately led the army off the ship.
“Vine Whisker Demons, you go ahead and scout. If there’s anything, report immediately! Alice, let’s go in!”
Alice excitedly grabbed the handle of the whip at her waist and stepped into the cave.
Although the Scorpion race had been defeated in the City of Dawn, their bravery had left a deep impression on many people.
This underground passage was not as narrow and dark as they had imagined. Instead, it was spacious, almost enough for four people to walk side by side without feeling crowded.
It was an underground passage that slanted downward. The army quickly sneaked in and soon entered it.
They approached their destination without a hitch with the Vine Whisker Demons in front of them, which could travel underground to scout the area.
“Everyone, be gentle, and don’t make any noise!”
Alice waved her hand and cast a silence spell on the warriors behind her to prevent their armor from colliding with each other and alarming the remaining Scorpion race members in the cave.
Soon, they arrived at a fork.
A team of Scorpion Warriors was guarding the right fork, and there were even a few hidden sentries.
The bodies of these sentries were like chameleons. They could turn their bodies into the same color as their surroundings. If one didn’t look carefully, one wouldn’t be able to distinguish them.
At this point, Zhao Sheng came to Alice’s side and said, “Lord Alice, there is a space where Human civilians are imprisoned not far from the guarded fork. And there’s a huge altar in the middle. At least three thousand Scorpion Warriors are guarding it, and they’re scattered around. Even if we have the advantage of numbers, it’ll be hard to deal with them.”
Alice nodded, and the long whip in her hand suddenly shot out. It was like a spirit snake, moving close to the ground. In an instant, it wrapped around the necks of all the Scorpion Warriors in the open and the dark.
With just a slight pull, these Scorpion Warriors’ heads fell off.
“Come on! Let’s go in and take a look!”
After clearing the obstacles, Alice immediately swaggered into the right passage with her army.
After moving forward for only a hundred meters, they saw a shockingly huge space.
“Wow, there’s such a huge space. I can totally build a city here!” Alice exclaimed after seeing the situation inside.
