Chapter 911: Chapter 604: Blood Demon Mystery (Part 2)
However, everything is subject to change.
Now, there is only the masked man as a breakthrough point. If there are other Blood Demon Cult members behind him, once they discover something has happened to the masked man, they will definitely alert the stronghold to move immediately and might even harm Xue Wuyang’s son in retaliation.
This is something he doesn’t want to see.
Moreover, the Blood Demon Cult looking for Xue Wuyang might just be a diversion; they may have other schemes.
Therefore, solely relying on the personnel at Ice Extreme Pass is not secure enough.
He needs a reliable helper.
At this moment, a figure quietly appeared in his mind — with this person helping, this plan would definitely be foolproof.
……
900 kilometers outside Ice Extreme Pass city, an extremely cold ice cavern.
A soldier dressed in cold-resistant battle armor quickly approached, holding a tactical tablet, and handed it to Xue Wuyang: “Instructor, this is our latest reconnaissance result. Deep within the ice cavern, a crystal stone mine with considerable reserves is hidden, but a group of Ice Beasts is entrenched around the vein, and according to instrument detection, the leader of this group is a Tier Seven Ice Beast.”
Xue Wuyang took the tablet, his fingertips sliding across as he carefully reviewed the detection data and the Ice Beast distribution map, then he looked up and asked: “Contact the command center and inquire about the Military Lord, Mr. Robert, and Mr. Adif; see who is currently in the pass and available to assist.”
The soldier immediately took out a communicator and sent an inquiry message to the command center. Within a few minutes, a reply was received:
“Instructor, the Military Lord is in the pass hosting guests from the Royal star and cannot leave temporarily; Mr. Adif has gone to support the White Tiger Legion, where they are also facing an attack by a Tier Seven Snow Beast; currently, among all the Tier Seven experts within the pass, only Mr. Robert is available.”
“Alright, I will contact Mr. Robert.” Xue Wuyang nodded, opened the communication directory on his smart wristwatch, and paused at the screen for a moment — he knew that this call was the first step in luring the snake out of its hole.
He took a deep breath and pressed the dial button.
“Mr. Robert, this is Xue Wuyang.” Once the call connected, Xue Wuyang explained the discovery of the crystal mine in the extremely cold ice cavern and the entrenchment of the Tier Seven Ice Beast.
“Currently, we don’t have a Tier Seven expert stationed here, so we humbly request your support in dealing with that Tier Seven Ice Beast.”
“Alright, I’ll be there right away.”
Robert responded calmly and decisively.
After the communication ended, within less than ten minutes, a silver flying device broke through the blinding snowstorm and swiftly arrived.
“So fast!” The nearby soldier couldn’t help but exclaim.
Under normal circumstances, even the top military flying devices of the Empire couldn’t cover nearly a thousand kilometers in just a few minutes.”
However, at Ice Extreme Pass, distance is never a problem.
Centered around the main city of Ice Extreme Pass, based on indicators like safe houses, important terrain, and mineral resources, hundreds of space stations have been established, covering a radius of up to 3000 kilometers from the pass.
Using a combination of space station-enhanced flying devices, troops within the pass can reach any location around Ice Extreme Pass in the shortest possible time.
The flying device slowly landed, and as the cabin door opened, Robert stepped out; his silver-gray tech battle armor outlined his tall figure, remaining composed and unperturbed amidst the blinding snowstorm.
“Mr. Robert!”
Upon Robert’s arrival, all soldiers on site simultaneously raised their hands to salute, their eyes filled with respect.
Everyone knows that Mr. Robert is not only a top expert with Tier Seven combat prowess but also a nearly omniscient and omnipotent scientist, military strategist, and politician.
Recently, when the Military Lord left Ice Extreme Pass, and the area faced various developmental challenges, whether it was infrastructure bottlenecks, development dilemmas, or external forces’ provocations, these were all conveniently solved in Mr. Robert’s hands.
He is like the second stabilizing force aside from the Military Lord, controlling the direction of Ice Extreme Pass’s advancement and stabilizing the entire situation.
In Ice Extreme Pass, the person with the highest prestige, besides the Military Lord, is Mr. Robert.
Even after the Military Lord returned, and Mr. Robert focused more on scientific research, he still holds significant decision-making power and influence over major affairs at Ice Extreme Pass.
In many people’s hearts, Mr. Robert, who possesses both top-tier strength and extraordinary intelligence, is undeniably the second-in-command of Ice Extreme Pass.
“Mr. Robert.” Xue Wuyang bowed slightly, then handed the tactical tablet to him, “Please take a look; this is the specific distribution and detection data of the Ice Beast, with the Tier Seven Ice Beast’s lair located deep within the crystal stone mine.”
Robert took the tablet, quickly browsed through it, and lightly nodded: “Alright, I’ll deal with this Tier Seven Ice Beast.”
“Thank you for your effort.” Xue Wuyang respectfully said, then turned around and waved to the soldiers behind him, giving orders, “Everyone, follow me and Mr. Robert, enter the ice cavern, and cooperate with Mr. Robert’s actions!”
“Yes!”
The crowd responded in unison, and then Xue Wuyang led Robert and the large troop, stepping through thick snow, towards the depths of the extremely cold ice cavern.
As they delve deeper, a chilling air hit them, as if the air itself froze into a solid form, every breath exhaled a puff of white mist.
The cave was pitch-black with no light at all, eerie silent, only the sound of their footsteps on the ice
Tick, tick, tick
Steady and uniform
And the warriors’ suppressed breathing echoed within the vast cavern.
Fortunately, the accompanying soldiers were either Tier Four and above Barbarian Warriors with successful Body Refining or perceptive Spiritualists, maintaining a high level of vigilance despite the darkness and cold.
