Amidst the continuous stretch of burnt yellow rey cotton threads winding their way around the rocky hills Clusters of little green trees were scattered sporadically across the area, reen ink on a yellow canvas

The afternoon sun shone on the yellowish ht on the rocky peaks

Four youngsters in khaki coloured hunting clothes lay beneath the shade of a fruit tree and nibbled on round red fruit while looking below intently

There was a grey-white lane at the bottom of the hill, located in the narrow space between two cliffs

The four of them climbed onto one side of the hill and stared attentively at the center of the lane in the crevice

This quintet consisted of three roup

"Garen, make your butterfly fly a little further towards the east Try and see if there’s anything there?" said one of the friendly-lookingti yet Wasn’t this area supposed to be a hotspot for bandits?"

"I’ll try and see," said a handsoainst the bottom of the tree trunk The youth was Garen, who had just arrived from Iron Tank City "My neon butterfly would be too conspicuous in this area Besides, e cannot exceed three kilo we can do is wait like here like a bunch of fools," Goth said as he lay on his back He took a large bite out of the fruit in his hand There was already a pile of five or six fruit stones beside him

"Be patient," Jessica replied softly

Crunch

Goth bit down hard on the red fruit A look of utter boredom was plastered on his face

Time continued to tick away In a blink of an eye, half an hour had passed

"I’ve found so!" Garen stood up suddenly "I’ve found the bandits!"

"What’s their specific location?" I’ll send the black panther over!" Andy rose to his feet as well

Garen knitted his eyebrows tightly

"The bandits just left Unfortunately, I’m afraid that ere a few steps too late,"

"Doesn’t matter Let’s just hurry over and then we’ll talk"

The four of theot up quickly, and raced towards the direction that Garen had pointed towards

Following the burnt yellow and grey rocky slope, the four people rushed down the mountain, and climbed up the slope of a different rocky hill

Just as they reached the other side of the slope, they froze in their steps when they noticed the scene before theround, and the black ox that had been pulling the cart earlier now lay in a pool of its own blood At the sareen-headed flies circled its lifeless body

On the football field-sized peri blood hung in the air, causing the onlookers to feel a sense of tightness for inside their chests

The dead bodies spanned a continuous distance of thirty-four ht corner of the lane, not one living body could be seen

The Black Panther squad had only been standing there for a few moments, but Jessica could not help but an to retch

Andy took a deep breath, and furrowed his brows at the sight that was laid out before hi for survivors for now"

Goth patted Jessica’s shoulders

"Are you alright?" Although his own face was beginning to turn pale as a sign that he was also having a hard tier than Jessica’s

"I’m fine"

Garen, however, still had the same expression on his face The only difference was that his brorinkled now

"I’ve seen worse places before Now isn’t the time for chit chat Go check at once if you can find any survivors The bandits just left If they decide to turn back now it’ll spell nothing but trouble for us"

Goth grunted

"It’d be better if they came back here This type of scum should all be sentenced to death!"

"I’m afraid we don’t have the power to decide that…" Andy walked towards the pile of dead bodies, and began to check theated, the darker his expression turned

"At least three totem users were present! And it’s obvious that one of them possesses second form attack abilities!"

"Second form…" Goth was left speechless "A second form totem user would never be this desperate fora bandit?"

No one replied him This was a reason that everyone else wanted to find out as well

Garen ht of an answer, but he kept it to himself

The four of thean their search in theafter, a cry of surprise was heard in Jessica’s direction

"I’ve found one! Everyone come here quickly!"

Garen turned his head in that direction and saw Jessica pulling open the wooden section of a carriage Fro clothes

"This baby is still alive!" Jessica yelled happily

The four of theether quickly, and formed a circle around Jessica

They could see that the baby was still sound asleep in his wrappings, and did not wake up even as Jessica rocked him a few times It looked as if the baby was in deep sleep But they noticed the wet tear stains in the corners of the baby’s eyes, indicating that he had been crying for a while

Andy reached a hand out to touch the baby’s forehead and nostrils

"That’s good He isn’t sick, and his breathing is also normal I’ve also sent the black panther to notify the nearbyhere soon to take care of this situation"

Garen stood at the side and looked at the other three people ere gathered around the baby He attees and look into the es did not contain everything, and only the most important events were usually documented A normal circumstance like this would not have been recorded

He lifted his head, and looked at the blue neon butterfly flying circles in the sky Suddenly, his expression changed

"Watch out! So! It’s the bandits!"

"How many?" Andy asked cale again "And three of the toteh ti on to us really quickly! Bend down! Watch your breathing!" Garen hurriedly lay flat on the ground near in a recess near some rocks
