He walked out of the treasure cave.

“My lord, where are we going next?” Zhang Liang patted the dust off his body and asked.

“Let’s go to the ancient ruins. It’s closer.”

Lin Ye opened the map. This time, there were three targets.

There were two known ones. One was an ancient ruin, while the other was a Level 3 treasure cave that they had just cleared.

These two were what he got from Jiang Chen and Yang Tianyou.

The last unknown was suspected to be a treasure cave or an ancient ruin. It was also the treasure land that Xu Yuan found.

Song Kuaidi discovered it but in order to live, he told Lin Ye the information.

There were three locations. One was in the north, one was in the northwest, and the last one was in the southwest.

They were currently in the north, and the closest to them was the one northwest. After checking, it was an unknown place.

“Song Kuaidi, you’ve been to that place before. Lead the way,” Lin Ye said.

“Sure, everyone, follow me.” Song Kuaidi nodded and fixed a large flashlight at the front of his spirit vehicle.

Swoom——

The engine roared to life as it accelerated to its maximum power, taking the lead as it sped ahead.

Soon, the others followed the light from behind on their Earth Demonic Bears.

Zombies along the way suffered. They were either crushed or trampled into meat paste.

Half an hour after they left, a group wearing sky-blue armor rushed over.

The group was agile and well-trained. They were wearing specially made shoes which could reduce the amount of sound produced.

In the darkness, they were like a group of shadow assassins as they dashed forward silently.

Moments later, they arrived not far from the entrance of the treasure cave.

“Is this the place?”

The person who spoke was a tall and beautiful lady whose muscles were bulging.

It was Zhan Mingyue from the Heavenly Paths Army.

“That’s right. Two days ago, Team Two received a mission. They came here to obtain information about the treasure cave. I didn’t expect them to never return.”

The person who was talking to Zhan Mingyue was a person carrying an ‘ancient’ object similar to a radio station on his back.

This person was Liu Xin, an intelligence agent of the Heavenly Paths Army. He spoke truthfully.

“Commander, come and take a look. Something’s not right.”

Suddenly, a man with a colorful stripe on his face waved in their direction.

When Zhan Mingyue and the others arrived, the man switched on a small flashlight and pointed at the messy footprints on the ground with the help of the weak light.

“Do you see this? These are footprints, not only from humans but also from wild beasts. From the looks of it, it seems to be a bear-type creature. We can probably confirm that it’s a human lord. Not far away, there’s feces left behind by magical beasts. It’s still a little warm so they should have left not long ago.”

“A human lord?”

Zhan Mingyue had a bad premonition. The man with the colorful face was the tracking master, Tang Zheng.

He was originally from another army but was temporarily transferred to their team.

His words were usually accurate.

In this case, a person who could recruit bear-type magical beasts at this current stage around the Lonely Forest area…

there was no other person other than that man.

“Let’s go down and take a look!”

Zhan Mingyue’s expression darkened. She gritted her teeth and jumped down first.

“Commander!” The others were all shocked. Everyone present knew the danger of a treasure cave. Even if it was a Level 1 or 2 treasure cave,

going in was extremely dangerous. Although the commander was powerful, she should not act recklessly like this.

After all, this was a Level 3 Treasure Cave. It was considered an extremely dangerous area even among the various large armies.

“Follow her,” Tang Zheng shook his head.

In fact, he was not worried about Zhan Mingyue. The human lord who got there first was probably extremely powerful.

Although there were many footsteps outside, it was not messy and there was no trace of blood.

Looking at the shape and characteristics of the reverse footprints, they were light and clean. When they came out, they should be relaxed and safe.

Some of the footprints even had the leisure to linger at the entrance.

This situation…

Obviously, the battle in the cave was a crushing defeat. Even if he didn’t go down, he roughly guessed the outcome.

The group quickly jumped down the treasure cave.

As expected, along the way, there were bloodstains everywhere and the blood was black.

Tang Zheng dipped a cotton bud on the dried blood and put it in a bottle filled with blue liquid.

Soon, the blue liquid produced a separation reaction.

“It’s corpse blood! With the speed that the reaction happened, it is from a top Class 2!”

He looked around and his heart froze. “The blood here all belong to zombies. There’s actually no blood that belongs to a human!”

It was especially shocking when they stepped onto the platform and saw the remnants of the battle.

“My god! Was that pit slapped out by someone?”

“This is too exaggerated. I feel like even Commander Zhan Mingyue can’t do it.”

“Look, there are even sealing runes on the ground. It seems like the monster that was sealed in this place was released.”

“Tang Zheng, come and take a look at the level of this sealing array.”

….

Hearing Zhan Mingyue’s call, Tang Zheng quickly returned from the other four passageways.

He was horrified. According to the samples he had gathered, the blood left in the four holes was all corpse blood from monsters Level 3 and above.

They were divided into Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced, and even Top tier.

Although he did not know the exact number, he knew that it must be a lot.

Soon, Tang Zheng returned to the platform. Following Zhan Mingyue’s instructions, he checked the level and power of the sealing array on the ground one by one.

He had studied about this in the underworld for a long time and was already familiar with it.

“F*ck!!”

Suddenly, he could not help but curse.

“What’s the situation?” Zhan Mingyue frowned.

She understood Tang Zheng. He had a good attitude and was not afraid even if the sky collapsed. He was known as the Stone Buddha.

But even he was shocked.

This sealing array had once imprisoned a terrifying magical beast?

“A top Class 4 sealing array!”

Tang Zheng looked straight at Zhan Mingyue. “You should understand what this means.”

“This place, how is this possible!” Shock flashed across Zhan Mingyue’s beautiful eyes.

The Level 2 treasure cave that they had found on Lone Island last time had released a top Class 3 monster from its sealing array.

After a tough round of fighting, they had lost many excellent soldiers.

If they encountered a top Level 4 zombie beast, even if they won, more than half of the people present would die.

“Let’s not worry about that for now. Have you found Team Two’s people?” She forced herself to calm down and asked again.

“I found them. In the deepest part of the right cave. They…” Tang Zheng sighed but didn’t elaborate.

But everyone knew.

“Was it done by humans or monsters?” Zhan Mingyue lowered her head and asked in a low voice.

“It should be done by monsters. The corpses were covered in bite marks from the monsters. From the looks of it, they’ve been dead for at least a day. The people who were here just now have some humanity in them. They didn’t remove their equipment and simply buried everyone in Team Two,” Tang Zheng answered truthfully.

“Go back and record down every soldier who died in battle. If you can find their family, try your best to bring them to the headquarters.”

Zhan Mingyue sighed and led the others back the way they came.

After entering the treasure cave, a dragon phantom appeared on the surface of her fist and landed on the ground.

Rumble!!

The huge treasure cave instantly shook and collapsed.

“Tang Zheng, find Lin Ye. I want to see him myself!” Zhan Mingyue took a deep breath and said.

She had already confirmed that the person who came was Lin Ye.

However, she did not expect the gap between her and Lin Ye to be so huge.

The other party could actually clear a Level 3 treasure cave without spilling a drop of blood.

If this force were to join the army, it would definitely be a great help.

Moreover, she felt that Lin Ye had misunderstood her.

Previously, it was just a preliminary exchange and she had yet to say anything. Why did he blacklist her?

He even prohibited the sale of equipment to her on the market page. Although she could buy it from others, she felt aggrieved.

“Commander, let’s return to the base camp first. We’ve been out for too long. Once we’re discovered by the zombie king, it’ll probably send a large number of high-level zombies to ambush us. With our current ability, the survival rate is too low.”

Tang Zheng advised, “Besides, you should understand that since Lin Ye has blocked you from the market page, he most likely guessed your identity. He doesn’t want to be associated with us. And most importantly…”

“We don’t understand him, and he doesn’t understand us. We don’t have the right to have an equal conversation. Do you think he will give you a chance to speak?”

“Let’s wait for a while. When the ten War Gods return from the restricted region, our strength will increase greatly. Once we have the confidence to back our words, we can talk to him again.”

“The strong will respect the strong. Even if we can’t reach an agreement, there would be no danger. If we chase after him recklessly, not to mention whether it will interfere with the other party’s plans, if we make a fool of ourselves, it will result in a deadly feud.”

“Have you considered the consequences?”

Upon hearing this, Zhan Mingyue hesitated.

She wasn’t stupid. She understood what Tang Zheng meant and knew that he was right.

“Let’s go back!”

In the end, she clenched her fists and said that. She turned around and left quickly.

A smile appeared on Tang Zheng’s face. Everyone was improving. He was, and so did the commander.

As long as they maintained this state.

He believed that even without Lin Ye’s help, they could rapidly increase their strength through the information they had.

“Follow.”

Soon, the group packed up their bags and disappeared under the moonlight.
