In the center of the Stellar River. Atop the giant, millstone-like floating boulder. Linley and Bebe were standing there.
“If we were to be surrounded and attacked, it would be dangerous.” Bebe looked at their surroundings.
“Hiding around the central boulders of the Stellar River?” Linley couldn’t help but look at the surrounding areas, then laughed. “Bebe, stop imagining things. I think no commander would be willing to battle within the center of the Stellar Sea. If you aren’t careful, you’ll immediately fall into the spatial tears or the chaotic space, and be finished.”
“Oh. Makes sense.” Bebe couldn’t help but rub his nose and chortle.
“Enough. If we stay here in the center of the Stellar River, we’ll easily be discovered. Let’s hurry up and find a way out and arrive at the opposite side in a hurry.” Linley said quickly.
“Right.” Bebe also began to immediately inspect the surrounding spatial tears and chaotic space.
If someone from the other side was paying attention to the center of the Stellar River, Linley and Bebe would be easily discovered.
“No, this route doesn’t work either.” Linley shook his head, negating another pathway he had just discovered. Sometimes, a pathway seemed promising, but after a hundred meters, spatial tears and chaotic space completely blocked it off, providing no chances for advancing.
Linley and Bebe continued to search rapidly.
“Boss, I found a path.” Bebe said in surprised delight.
“Oh? Which one?” Linley couldn’t help but feel delighted.
“Right over here. Look, follow this line, then there…take a big turn. The route after that is fairly clear.” Bebe said excitedly.
Linley’s gaze quickly swept down and followed the route, all the way to the other end. He wanted to make sure this route was passable.
“Let’s go.” Linley immediately gave the order.
Tarrying too long in the center of the Stellar River would make it easy for those on the other side to find them. Generally speaking, the easiest time for others to discover and ambush you would be during the process of travelling from one shore to another.
“Whoosh!” “Whoosh!”
Two figures flashed through the Stellar Sea like bolts of lightning, occasionally curving and occasionally shooting forward, then curving again…in short, constantly dodging past one dangerous region after another.
“Captain, look, over there! Two people.” On the other side of the shore, a group of soldiers had discovered Linley and Bebe, advancing at high speed.
“Just two of them?” The leader, a silver-haired, sharp-eared, callous looking youth looked over, then gave the instructions. “These two definitely are commanders, or perhaps just one of them is. Let’s immediately move out, while at the same time…Second Bro, you go make the report to the Lord Commander. Should we let them go, or should we attack?”
“Understood.”
A figure left, flying at high speed.
Linley and Bebe had no idea that there was a camp located right at the part of the shore they had selected as their destination. Unfortunately, the camp was blocked by a small hill, and so Linley and Bebe didn’t discover it at all. Linley and Bebe’s attention was completely focused on the dangerous path they were traversing, and didn’t realize at all that people in the distance were staring at them.
“My brothers, all of you, step back. Don’t fight head on. The few dozen of us present won’t be able to stop them.” The silver-haired, sharp-eared youth instructed. “When the main army arrives or the Lord Commander arrives, then we’ll see.” They were nothing more than a small patrol of the camp, and were more than ten kilometers away from the headquarters.
They were no fools. The few dozen of them, go fight head on against a commander-level expert? That would be suicide.
If there were hundreds or a thousand of them present, then they might be confident.
“They’ve almost arrived.” The soldiers stared. They had retreated long ago, drawing close to the tall grass close to the hill next to the headquarters.
“The commander orders them to be killed!” The order from the commander came.
“Brothers, let’s go!” The silver-haired, sharp-eared youth immediately shouted. It wasn’t just them, now; a large number of people had arrived from the main camp as well.
“Rumble…”
The soldiers of the camp located in other areas had all come, and they too charged forward, attacking alongside the patrols. There were more than a thousand attacking soldiers.
“Swoosh!” “Swoosh!” Linley and Bebe landed on the shore, moving lightning-fast.
“Boss, there are people here! Many!” Bebe said, stunned. Linley now noticed as well that in the distant grassy area, a large number of figures had suddenly emerged and were moving towards them at high speed. At the same time, more than ten meters away, in the distance, there was a short tent, with other tents blocked by the hill. “Not good. This is an enemy camp. We need to hurry and leave.”
Linley didn’t dare to hesitate, immediately fleeing alongside Bebe.
“Attack!” The order came. There was nothing they could do; in terms of speed, these soldiers couldn’t compete with Linley and Bebe. If this continued, the distance would only grow greater and greater. It was better to immediately attack. With that order, instantly…
“Rumble…”
“BOOM!”
All sorts of rays of light, translucent soul attacks, and other things shot forward at high speed, traversing the kilometers of distance and attacking Linley and Bebe.
But Linley and Bebe fled very quickly as well.
“Bang!” “Bang
