After Turning Into A Little Skeleton, I Got Contracted By A Goddess

Chapter 176 Investigation And Discovery

Investigation and Discovery

"This time, you'll be working with me, Snow Leopard. You've completed your previous mission pretty well, but I still have to repeat it."

Red Fox's expression was grave. "According to our intelligence, one of the monster clans in this canyon is flying-type while the other is burrowing-type. If they join the beast tide, they will cause a lot of damage to the defense line."

"That's why we need to investigate the situation immediately and then report it to the headquarters so that they can make a battle plan as soon as possible.

"I'm sure you know how dangerous it is inside. You know what to do if there's any accident, right? "

Yan Wuyue nodded with a calm expression.

"Very good, then let's go." Red Fox was pleased and immediately began to move.

At that moment, Red Fox summoned her spirit for the first time. It was a white shadow that looked like a spirit.

It looked like some kind of animal's soul, moving up and down around Red Fox's body.

"This is my summoned spirit, Xiao Li. It's a support spirit body type. It can block all kinds of information I leak to the maximum, and at the same time, it can protect me from all kinds of mental attacks or illusions.

"That's also why they often let me act alone. It's because my invisibility and hiding skills are excellent, so I'm basically the one doing the tough job."

The next second, Xiao Li turned around in the air, circling Red Fox and Yan Wuyue. A large number of white spots of light separated from its body and fell on the two.

A layer of the translucent white light film began to condense on the two of them. Soon, their auras rapidly weakened. In the end, even Zhou Mingrui could not sense them.

"What about your summoned spirit?" Red Fox looked at Yan Wuyue.

"I am good. I have my own way." Zhou Mingrui waved his hand.

"Good, I can save energy too." Red Fox shrugged and set off towards the canyon.

Zhou Mingrui followed behind the two of them. Along the way, the cloak on his body dissipated. Following that, his body first transformed into a semi-energy form. Finally, after a slight illusion, Zhou Mingrui's aura also disappeared.

Red Fox and Yan Wuyue both sensed his change. They looked back and saw that Zhou Mingrui had almost turned into a spiritual body.

This was a technique that Zhou Mingrui had modified based on the secret skill, Soul Attachment, and the knowledge he had learned in the academy.

His non-human body also allowed him to activate this skill.

After making sure that Snow Leopard's summoned spirit would not be exposed, Red Fox calmed down. The two of them, along with their summoned spirits, began to approach the canyon.

As they walked past the main entrance, Red Fox led the group towards the gathering point of the monsters as it was a scouting mission.

Soon, they arrived at the first monster gathering point, which happened to be the gathering point of other types of monsters.

At this time, these python-like monsters were in their caves, and only a few were wandering in the middle of the canyon.

The situation was clear. This tribe had no intention of joining the beast tide.

After a careful investigation, Red Fox and Yan Wuyue were sure that this tribe still maintained normal living habits.

Red Fox looked at Yan Wuyue and nodded. The two of them quickly retreated to the outer ring.

"Alright, we've had enough information about this tribe. Let's go to the next one."

After saying that, Red Fox pointed above them, indicating the next tribe's location.

After taking a detour, the group once again arrived above the canyon. After all, it wasn't difficult to find where the flying-type monster clan was.

Red Fox also confirmed that this tribe was the same as the last one, having no intention of joining the beast tide.

After confirming the accuracy of the information, Red Fox was ready to lead the group out of the canyon. However, at that moment, a flash of light suddenly appeared on the ground and caught her attention.

"What is this?" Red Fox followed the light.

It was necessary to figure out any special circumstances at this moment. Otherwise, the information could be inaccurate.

Seeing the light, Yan Wuyue and Zhou Mingrui looked at each other and noticed the suspicion in each other's eyes.

Soon, everyone noticed that the light was actually a light belt formed by threads.

These light bands continued to extend on the ground, like liquid flowing on the ground, constantly extending forward.

"It's going toward..." Red Fox took a look and immediately realized that it was the burrowing-type monsters' nest that they had been to before.

Red Fox immediately pulled out a dagger from beside her feet and carefully stabbed it into the band of light, trying to see what it was.

However, before she could do so, she felt a tight grip on her back pulling her.

"What are you doing?"

Red Fox whipped her head and found that it was Yan Wuyue who pulled her back, so she asked in confusion.

After Yan Wuyue did not say anything but pointed to the front, Red Fox turned around and found that the light band, which had been like a small river a moment ago, had now split into countless light threads. Moreover, all of them condensed into the shape of spiral spikes.

Red Fox was shocked. It seemed that this light band was an intelligent life form, and it was rather developed.

This information made Red Fox's expression even more serious, and she immediately raised her watch to take pictures as evidence.

[ Is it from that guy? ] Zhou Mingrui asked.

[It looks like so, but I'm not sure because it's too difficult to break through the world barrier now. ] Yan Wuyue answered with uncertainty.

"Follow me. We need to know why the light belt is heading toward the monsters' nest!" Red Fox stood up and said to Yan Wuyue.

Yan Wuyue nodded and kept following Red Fox with Zhou Mingrui.

When everyone arrived, they found that the light had already reached the entrance of the monsters' nest and was extending inside.

Soon, one of the monsters noticed the light.

In the face of this unknown thing, the python-like monster also used its tail to roll up a stone and throw it at the light belt.

Before the rock could hit the light, it was immediately shattered by the thin threads that split from the light.

Then, with lightning speed, they formed countless threads of light and shot toward the python monster. They were so fast that the python monster didn't have time to defend itself before it was caught and wrapped up by the threads.

Red Fox, Yan Wuyue, and the others watched as the threads penetrated the python monster's scales and went deep into its body.

The python monster, which was still struggling desperately, gradually stopped after a second. Then, the silk thread slowly withdrew.

The python monster began to move stiffly after the silk thread faded, but it quickly returned to normal. However, it finally stopped moving for good.

Yan Wuyue and the others were all shocked by this scene!
