Chapter 317 Hidden Sinkhole
Chapter 317 Hidden Sinkhole
Yan San stared helplessly at Xi Yu on the screen, watching her negotiate with Principal Luo Hong with a radiant expression. The light in her eyes clearly showed that she was in a very good mood.
"Have you found it?" he suddenly asked.
Upon receiving the news, Fu Baili immediately reported to him: "The Yazi Mercenary Group has always been elusive. Based on the known clues, they should have entered the county valley half a month ago, with no clear purpose."
"How did the assessment go wrong? And we can't even intervene!" Fu Baili sighed. The assessment was a matter for the military academy, and no legion or headquarters was allowed to interfere.
"Have Chengsi take a team to Lieutenant General Luo Hong's place to await orders. Grant Lieutenant General Luo Hong the authority to make mobilizations, and let him command them," Yan San said, closing his eyes slightly.
While the legion cannot interfere on its own, it can still provide manpower to the military academy.
Fu Baili suddenly realized what was going on and hurriedly began to make the necessary arrangements.
……
Following the trail of the dead man, Xi Yu groped her way back along the path he had taken. After wandering through the complex and primitive mountain forest for about an hour, she finally found the man's companions.
Xi Yu hid in a big tree, far away, and only released a mental barrier to probe forward.
Unexpectedly, there was a sinkhole about 50 meters in diameter right in front of them, right in the valley! But Xi Yu clearly remembered that the information showed that there were no sinkholes in the valleys of this county!
How exactly did this sinkhole form, and when did it form?
Xi Yu calmed herself and carefully explored the area around the sinkhole. She saw twenty or thirty well-equipped mercenaries on the outer perimeter of the sinkhole, and one man in particular caught her attention.
The man exuded a terrifying aura of bloodlust. His right eye was a horrifying scarlet, and there were three deep claw marks on his face. His left eye was hollow, having lost its pupil.
This man was clearly the leader of the group.
Xi Yu's face immediately turned cold and stern. The man was surrounded by terrifying black energy, which was invisible to ordinary people, but it was nowhere to be seen by Xi Yu's discerning eyes.
This person... is very unusual, giving her a non-human feeling, and also somewhat familiar.
While Xi Yu was observing with her mental power, Lieutenant Colonel Ma Yangrui was also manipulating another miniature monitor to fly directly over the sinkhole, monitoring everyone.
"Principal! Please come quickly!!" Lieutenant Colonel Ma Yangrui couldn't contain his shock. A huge sinkhole had appeared out of nowhere in the county valley! What was going on?!
"This is..." Lieutenant Colonel Yu Hao happened to arrive. He was on his off-duty time and had just received the notification before rushing over.
Principal Luo Hong also showed a solemn expression. In preparation for this assessment, they had been paying attention to the county valley for half a year and had deployed at least a thousand miniature monitoring devices to monitor the valley at all times.
Despite such a thorough search, no one discovered the sinkhole hidden in the valley! The sinkhole seemed to have appeared out of thin air, and there were thick clouds above it, making it impossible to see anything from above.
"The situation is serious. This is beyond our ability to handle. We must contact the various legions and headquarters immediately and ask them to send reinforcements." Principal Luo Hong realized the seriousness of the situation and gave the order decisively.
"Principal, Major Yue's troops from the First Legion are already outside, and they request to join the operation!" An instructor rushed over to inform them.
"Please let them in." Principal Luo Hong breathed a sigh of relief and immediately agreed.
