I Have a Golden Crow

Liu Juncai looked at everyone applying the blood marks one by one and said, ”If the soldiers all have the ability to dispel cold qi...”

Lin Shihao nodded in understanding, meaning that the soldiers waiting for rescue in the city were essentially ”reverse marked” out!

He immediately proposed, ”Let’s find a taller building, fly up the wall, and have Du Yu take a look.”

Du Yu replied casually, ”No problem.”

The five-member team, along with the soldiers, immediately left the gas station.

After surveying the surroundings, Liu Juncai indicated the residential area on the next street: ”Let’s go with it.”

Two rows of buildings stood tall, at least 7 stories high.

But it was clear there was quite a distance to 100 meters in height, not really related to the safety zone.

Liu Juncai pointed to the front left: ”That hundred-meter building seems to be the closest to us?”

”Careful!” A soldier suddenly spoke from the back of the team.

Accompanying the male soldier’s voice was the sound of Du Yu’s bowstring.

”Twang!”

The Fire Line bowstring instantly tightened, and the Fire Arrow shot into the night sky to the right front.

Meanwhile, a silver beast suddenly sprang from the ground, meeting the arrow with one fierce claw.

The ubiquitous Evil Soul Cat was indeed the ”Death Messenger” harvesting human lives.

However, the death messenger met the ”Death God” himself.

”Meow!” Lord Baojun swung a paw, crushing the Evil Soul Cat to pieces.

Silver lightning swiftly shuttled, and upon hitting the ground, it slipped into the earth like a fish into water.

Not even a splash was seen, nor a sound heard.

Soldier: ???

Such smoothness?

Even smoother was when Du Yu released his fingers from the bowstring, then turned his head toward where Liu Juncai was pointing.

Such confidence, almost arrogance!

Just as Lord Baojun was crushing the Evil Soul Cat, Du Yu said aloud, ”Yes, it should be the closest safety zone.”

This skill,

was indeed understood by Prince Du!

Liu Juncai was taken aback for a moment and then smiled, rolling his eyes at Du Yu: ”Then let’s proceed in this direction.”

Du Yu nodded lightly, his eyes never leaving the residential building.

He always felt that he saw Night Fire Cage, that there should have been darkness within the seventh-floor home, with flames flickering in and out.

Liu Juncai: ”Shiwei, you accompany Du Yu and fly up there, protect him.”

Du Yu suddenly said, ”There is a Night Fire Cage inside the residential building, just slaughtered.

I don’t know if it’s caused by other Cold Beasts or if soldiers are hiding inside.”

Everyone deeply believed Du Yu’s words.

Liu Juncai made a decisive decision: ”Let’s go and have a look. It’s just right for us to rely on that building to fly.”

Lin Shihao turned to Du Yu, ”Do you want to summon the Desert Lynx?

It’s constantly running Mountain Earth Concealment, isn’t it consuming Demon Breath?”

”We’ll discuss it at the residential building.” Du Yu replied casually, feeling his temple throb as he approached the intersection!

Goodness~

So many Cold Beasts?

The most obvious was two enormous Evil Soul Dogs on the road two streets away, savagely biting each other.

The scene was extremely bloody and brutal.

One Evil Soul Dog seemed to notice them.

But it only glanced at Du Yu before continuing to chew its kind before it.

The sharp teeth of the Evil Dog would only destroy each other, but the Wind Demon Skill of the Evil Soul Dog kept wrecking the city streets.

”Hiss!!!”

Du Yu was still watching when suddenly a massive, phantom bat swooped down.

Celestial Treasure Race - Blood Wind Bat!

Really lacking in intelligence,

If it was a normal Demon Beast, it would think to reap the benefits, wouldn’t it?

But where the Cold Beasts looked was just pure destruction and slaughter.

”Let’s go, quickly.” Du Yu urged them.

As long as a battle lasts long enough, it would attract all sorts of Cold Beasts.

The group quickly crossed the street, shattering the community’s earthen fence, gathering swiftly under the residential building.

A soldier suggested, ”Cold Ashen Arrow is in the east, you can fly along the west wall concealing yourself.”

”Got it!” Du Yu leaped vertically, his figure sticking to the wall as he flew up.

Lin Shiwei likewise, wind swirling around her feet, took off and caught up to Du Yu.

As Du Yu continued to rise, his view became more expansive.

A doomsday-like scene slowly came into view.

Everywhere were fighting battle groups, everywhere wandered the Cold Beasts...

”Top floor, seventh floor.” Lin Shiwei whispered, tugging at Du Yu’s sleeve.

”Mm.” Du Yu’s expression was grim, one hand on the wall, he tilted his head northward.

He actually saw a massive mechanical bear!

Beside the mechanical bear’s head, there was a small helicopter with exposed parts.

These two beings were not creatures of the Celestial Treasure Race.

In fact, they were not products of the Twin Tree Civilization either.

Earth Element·Mechanical Bear Puppet,

Wind Element·Spring Bee.

Both are products of European continent civilization.

Whereas Du Yu continued the habit from the past life, calling it Europe.

In this life, the Great Xia people refer to it as the ”Northern Continent.”

In this world, the Northern Continent (Europe) and the Great Xia Continent (Asia) do not connect, separated by a strait.

The Demon Beast civilization of the Northern Continent can be described as ”Magic Machinery.”

Demon Beasts appear mechanical outside but actually possess life and intelligence!

This is the origin of the term ”Magic Machinery.”

The founding ancestors of the Northern Continent civilization were not the Twin Divine Trees, but a large pool named ”Magic Furnace.”

Uh... consider it a big pool, but calling it a lake sounds nicer?

”Baptism by fire.” Lin Shiwei saw Du Yu was silent and shouted into the dark room on the seventh floor.

”Rebirth!” From the pitch-black room came a response.

Soon after, a female soldier, crouched over, quickly came to the balcony.

The female soldier cautiously looked to the west, at the corner of the building, saw half of Lin Shiwei’s exposed body.

Lin Shiwei: ”Are you injured?”

With the firelight, the female soldier carefully assessed Lin Shiwei’s face, saw a blood mark, then said: ”No.”

”Come, we’ll take you to the safety zone.” Lin Shiwei appeared in a flash, hand reaching forward.

The female soldier clutched Lin Shiwei’s arm as the two quickly flew backwards and retreated to the western wall.

”Du Yu?” Lin Shiwei called out.

”Those few in Icefield Province, I’m afraid they’re in trouble,” Du Yu said in a deep voice, ”Their Mechanical Bear Puppet has enlarged. It resolves the immediate crisis, but will draw more Cold Beasts... Huh?”

Lin Shiwei: ”What?”

Du Yu: ”The Mechanical Bear Puppet has shrunk and disappeared.”

Lin Shiwei: ”Let’s go down and talk first.”

”Okay.” Du Yu turned to look at the female soldier, and the trio quickly descended.

At the base of the wall beneath the residential building, the four-person team finally awaited the return of several people.

Lin Shihao asked, ”Why did it take so long?”

Lin Shiwei’s gaze was cold as she glanced at Lin Shihao: ”Observing the battlefield.”

Lin Shihao was so scared his heart trembled and he didn’t dare to speak again.

”There’s a situation,” Du Yu said, describing the scene he had witnessed.

”Four people from Icefield?” Liu Juncai’s brows furrowed slightly.

The kind of Demon Beast from the ”Magic Mechanical Civilization” could naturally be handled by students from Icefield Province.

Most students from the Great Xia Continent use Demon Beasts from their own lands.

Although Demon Breath attributes are interchangeable, cultivating mechanical civilization Demon Beasts in the Twin Tree Civilization is never quite that smooth.

It’s as if there’s some invisible barrier between the two civilizations?

If you insist on cultivating, you can, but be prepared for a tough journey.

However, it must be noted, the four in Icefield Province are not stubborn!

They contract and cultivate Magic Mechanical Demon Pets because there is a ”Magic Furnace” in the northwest of Icefield Province.

Just like the subsistence of the Twin Divine Trees, the Magic Furnace has countless ”Sub-Furnaces”.

As mentioned before, there are five continents in this world, each with different civilizations.

The Twin Trees are rooted in the Great Xia Continent.

But on another continental plate, there are also extremely scarce Twin Trees.

And that continental plate is the Northern Continent!

The reason is likely that the two continental plates are relatively close, with only a strait in between.

Is that why there are scenes of ”mutual landing” and ”probing” between the two civilizations?

Du Yu doesn’t know about that; he’s mainly considering the issue of rescuing compatriots.

This mission is clearly a battle of unity and cooperation.

Publicly, everyone must fight against the Cold Beast Army together.

Privately, rescuing compatriots will surely earn a big mark!

Liu Juncai pondered for a moment and asked, ”Where are they located?”

Du Yu said, ”To the north, about 4 or 5 kilometers.”

Thanks to the grid-like layout of the city streets, this northbound road leads directly to the northern high wall, so Du Yu could see fairly clearly.

Liu Juncai and Lin Shihao discussed briefly, and Liu Juncai said, ”The mission comes first.

However, we were already planning to head north, so we’ll search for soldiers while approaching that area.”

Although he said that, Liu Juncai wasn’t hopeful.

If the others were really besieged by Cold Beasts, she wouldn’t risk her team’s lives to rescue them.

While they communicated, the male and female soldiers were also communicating using Demon Souls.

It was unclear what the two discussed, but the female soldier suddenly spoke up, ”Everyone, I have some intelligence.”

”Oh?” Everyone looked at the female soldier.

”Two streets north, there is an underground parking lot with five of our trapped soldiers.”

Five heads?

Lin Shihao immediately said, ”Lead the way, let’s rescue them together!”

”Okay!”

The group quickly set out, and perhaps due to being on the outskirts, the Cold Beasts weren’t too dense.

With the tacit cooperation of Du Yu and the Desolate Silver Lynx, the team moved quickly.

As they approached a commercial building, everyone felt a slight tremor in the ground.

Du Yu’s heart was shocked as he looked towards the entrance of the underground parking lot.

Is it really so desperate?

To say they were ”trapped”, there’s no exaggeration at all?

The male and female soldiers they had rescued before were well hidden, calmly awaiting rescue.

But here, there’s a ground tremor?

The battlefield inside the underground parking lot must be of a high level!

”Keep formation and continue onward.” Liu Juncai felt a bit worried, ”Du Yu, we’re counting on you!”

As he spoke, Shaohai’s five people, along with the two soldiers, walked down the entrance.

The group followed the passage, turning a U-shaped corner, finally reaching the entrance of the underground car park.

Du Yu almost wanted to curse.

This crappy city is too realistic, isn’t it?

Even an underground parking lot has a U-turn, pure waste of time...

”Bang!” A loud noise came from a distance.

In sight, there was actually a giant mud hand breaking through the ground.

”Whoosh~”

The giant mud hand instantly retracted and shrank back.

With such a big hole, the sounds of battle below were even clearer.

”Two more levels down.” Within the contract, Baojun’s rustling voice sounded, very excited, ”Spirit-level Mud Po, two of them.”

Du Yu: ”The trapped soldiers are on the third underground level, with two Spirit-level Mud Po there.”

Liu Juncai fervently thrust a hand forward.

This score, Shaohai must claim it!

”Boom~”

The Grand Mud Po Goddess Sculpture suddenly manifested, heavily crashing to the ground.

”Take us to the third underground level and save the people,” Liu Juncai said, looking up at his family’s Mud Po.

The Demon General·Mud Po Goddess Sculpture was indeed willing to obey.

It extended two giant hands, gently grasping the group, then clenched them into fists, smashing directly into the ground.

”Bang!”

”Rumble...”

What seemed like hard permafrost was easily shattered by the mud hand, reaching until the third underground level, where the mud hand finally opened its palm.

Liu Juncai’s eyes flashed with a bolt of lightning, seeing the ground full of mud hands and the constantly surging Mud Swamp.

Five other soldiers were frantically fleeing from the mud hands.

”Attack!” Liu Juncai shouted fiercely!

”Meow!!!”

Accompanied by the sharp meow, the rapidly running Fire Arrow instantly tore through this dark battlefield!
