Chapter 97 - 97 Traces Found

97 Traces Found

In other words, he was not so sure that Mike was the culprit behind Lin Mai’s disappearance.

There was a reason why he made this judgment.

After he had reversed the situation in the Blood Clan, Mike, who had fallen into a dead end, did not fight to the death with them.

On the contrary, he even persuaded his followers not to continue resisting and to join the current Blood Clan.

Then, he left the tribe alone.

It could be seen from this that Mike’s decision on the development of the Vampires was very radical.

But in fact, he had a lot of feelings for the Vampires, and he was not someone who would do anything to achieve his goals.

So, if Lin Mai was kind enough to invite Mike to re-join the Blood Clan, he would have to do it.

Even if Mike did not want to, he would probably only give Lin Mai a hard time and would not directly hit him.

Of course, all of this was just Su Ming’s guess.

As for the specifics, it would depend on the situation at that time.

As he thought about it, Su Ming lifted his head slightly and looked into the distance.

After a period of trekking, he had already covered half the distance.

Some of the situations along the way were not exactly the same as what the Blood Clansmen had said. It was clearly because he had deviated from his route.

And this was what Su Ming had done on purpose.

The Vampires had searched this area many times, but they had not found any clues.

If Su Ming continued to follow their path, he would probably return empty-handed in the end.

Therefore, he simply rejected the Vampire’s idea of leading the way and rushed in the direction of his destination alone.

At the same time, Su Ming was also thinking about what he would do if he was Lin Mai.

Would he change his route? Would he encounter any unexpected terrain or danger?

With that thought in mind, Su Ming walked for another half an hour in the boundless wilderness.

Then, he suddenly stopped by a lake.

This place was only about a quarter of an hour’s journey from the place where the Blood Clansmen had met Mike.

And this was one of the few water sources nearby.

Once Su Ming stopped there, he first let Da Bai and Benben get some water and rest.

As for himself, he started to circle around the lakeside.

Then, when he reached a spot with a river bank, he suddenly stopped.

His line of sight was somewhat uncontrollably attracted by a scene.

Not far ahead, there was a piece of cloth on the riverbank.

Su Ming immediately narrowed his eyes and quickly walked toward the fragment.

Once he was right in front of him, Su Ming took a deep breath and his expression turned slightly solemn.

The moment he saw the fragment, Su Ming recognized its material and where it came from.

This was obviously a fragment that had been cut off from the capes of the Blood Clan!

Su Ming picked it up and held it in his palm to study it. His eyelids twitched slightly.

Su Ming looked around and his expression became more serious.

He was certain that the fragment was not cut from an ordinary Vampire.

Su Ming had only seen a cloak made of this material on a Blood Clansman before.

“Lin Mai…”

Su Ming took a deep breath and cast a glance at the lake before him. His eyes flickered.

Then, he walked to the side of the Turtle, picked it up, and pointed to the lake in front of him.

“Benben Turtle, help me see if there are any strange things inside. Hmm…tell me if there are any bodies in there.”

When Benben Turtle heard this, he tilted his head in a daze.

However, it did not say anything after that. Instead, it turned around and plunged into the lake behind it.

After that, Su Ming stood on the shore with a slightly focused gaze, waiting for the Turtle to come ashore.

After about 15 minutes, the Turtle had already floated up from the lake.

Once it reached the shore, it gestured at Su Ming for a while, and at the same time, it kept on mumbling.

The general meaning was, “There’s nothing strange in the lake, and no one else. There are only some fish.”

Once Su Ming understood what it meant, he let out a small sigh of relief.

Fortunately, the worst case scenario he had anticipated did not happen.

Once he thought of this, Su Ming no longer hesitated. He mounted Da Bai and looked around.

As for the Turtle, Su Ming did not let it stay in his arms.

“Once you find someone or something wrong, let me know immediately, understand?”

When Benben Turtle heard this, he first nodded his head, then directly flew into the air.

Riding on Da Bai, Su Ming started exploring the area around the river.

Since he was able to find Lin Mai’s clothes by the lake, it proved that Lin Mai had been here before.

Moreover, there might have been an extremely intense fight.

Under such circumstances, Su Ming had a feeling that Lin Mai would still be nearby.

However, after searching for half an hour, Su Ming still did not find anything.

He frowned slightly. Just as Su Ming was about to return to the Blood Clan and call for people from there to search the area thoroughly, the Turtle suddenly flew down from the sky, making some strange noises.

Su Ming was first stunned when he saw the Turtle’s reaction, then he quickly asked, “Did you discover something?!”

There was a hint of excitement in Su Ming’s voice, and the Turtle nodded its head in excitement as well.

“Yaya!”

I saw someone over there, hurry and go take a look.

Su Ming understood what it meant. He no longer hesitated and strode in the direction the Turtle had pointed.

Before long, Su Ming arrived at the place the Turtle had mentioned.

They were in a Valley, and there were two guards standing guard at the entrance of the valley.

However, compared to the Elf Valley, the defense posts and the Warriors on duty were much cruder.

It was as if he was a Barbarian who had yet to fully evolve.

The feeling they gave Su Ming was that they were of the same origin as the Barbarian tribe he had previously subdued.

Su Ming frowned slightly and rode on Da Bai to take a look around the valley.

Then, he slowly understood the situation of the entire Valley.

The valley was not big, it could even be said to be a little small, even smaller than the Elf Valley.

And the number of people among them was only about a few dozen or a hundred.

Of course, this information was not the most important to Su Ming.

The most important thing was the person he found inside!
