Chapter 1107: Chapter 37: Black Grinding
Gu Nanfeng heard this and fell completely silent.
At first, he was quite worried about Tomb Ghost’s safety, but after knowing this guy was fine, he started worrying about the decryption of the ancient texts.
Now…
There’s nothing to worry about anymore.
Tomb Ghost, truly the chosen worker.
“Umm…”
Gu Nanfeng hesitated for a moment and asked, “Has the injury from the Heavenly Sheath led to any other negative effects?”
Gu Shen stood outside the window.
Looking at Xing Yun on the bed, gnawing at his fingers and lost in thought.
“For example, is his brain still working properly?” Gu Nanfeng asked tactfully.
“Not really.”
Gu Shen candidly replied, “But it doesn’t affect much; he was like this before too.”
“True.” Gu Nanfeng laughed.
The call ended, and Gu Shen returned to the room.
This time, Tomb Ghost couldn’t hear the call because he not only used Array Patterns but also his Great Cold Pure Land, enveloping himself within his domain.
“How’s it?”
Tomb Ghost looked like a nervous student waiting for results.
After looking at those blueprints, he was waiting for Gu Shen and Gu Nanfeng to decide his fate.
“Pretty good, stay here with food and shelter.” Gu Shen took out a pile of blueprints and seriously instructed, “Look at these more when you have time; you’ll need them in the future. I’ll come over regularly for spot checks to see how much you’ve read and understood.”
These blueprints were the scattered ancient texts in Ian’s room.
Perhaps related to the “lost” Taboo Ancient Technique, although Ian lived a long time, his talent in ancient texts was limited, and many of the blueprints in that room, he likely didn’t understand the true meaning of.
“…”
Sold out yet still counting money for others, Tomb Ghost gripped Gu Shen’s hands tightly, his expression grateful: “Thank you, Xiao Gu, my benefactor!”
Benefactor?
This seems like it’s my first time being called that… Gu Shen coughed lightly, feeling a bit embarrassed internally but remained calm on the surface, saying blandly: “You’re welcome, take this time to rest well.”
…
…
On the snowfield, the wind was like a cold blade.
Although Deep Sea linked the entire Five Continents, due to technical limitations, there were still many places not under “surveillance.”
For example, the tundra at the extreme north of East Continent.
The climate here is extremely harsh, and current technology cannot yet stabilize the Spirit Network in the Tundra District.
Because of this reason, the East Continent Council’s deployment of “Heavenly Eye” in the tundra also has a high failure rate… Therefore, over the past years, many Transcendents from the Outer Continent would choose to root in the tundra and conduct some “unspeakable” activities.
Back then, the Late Bell Church sent out a large number of believers to the tundra, secretly excavating mountains, building bases, conducting missionary activities, and mining ancient tombs simultaneously.
Changye and Central City have reached an agreement; this time, they will cooperate in a “siege,” with the North Continent Army coming from the north to south, and Changye from south to north, gradually enclosing and completing the extermination.
The first thing both parties did was to establish base camps.
The elimination task does not seek speed but completeness… The criminals who escaped from the Snow Cage must all be accounted for without letting a single one slip through.
Therefore, several heavyweight figures were dispatched by both sides, each sealing off half of the Tundra Region.
On Changye’s side, there were four titled individuals participating in this mission—
Gu Family, Gu Qilin, Gu Nanfeng.
Bai Family, Bai Chen.
Li Family, Gao Tian.
Among these four titled individuals, Gu Qilin and Bai Chen are tasked with securing the rear. With these two holding fort at the Law Enforcers’ base, the southern line of the tundra’s blockade will not be breached.
Similarly, the North Continent Army also dispatched sufficiently powerful figures to hold the northern line.
Investigation Corps Commander Purple Rain.
She alone is enough, her strength is sufficient to obstruct any prisoner escaping from the Snow Cage, an absolute unbreachable iron wall—
Additionally, the North Continent Army places more emphasis on clearance speed.
The “Law Enforcers” they dispatched have overall strength superior to Changye’s.
Under Zhu Xue’s command, “Three Dogs,” two have been deployed, Heavenly Dog and Wild Dog, and these two have already headed towards the Tundra Interior.
Apart from that, renowned generals of the North Continent also appear on the task list… Several “captains” who had executed restart missions reappear and take on the role of captain again.
They are indeed the most suitable candidates.
South of the snowfields, a small team of five was patrolling.
This was an exploratory team dispatched by Changye.
Such teams often don’t have too many people and are equipped with a “powerful perception” Transcendent because their primary mission is not combat but performing spirit scans on the vast expanses of barren hills and wilderness in the tundra to complement the shortcomings of Deep Sea’s surveillance.
The greatest difficulty of such extensive siege battles is finding the “criminals.”
Those Transcendents imprisoned in the Snow Cage are all deranged lunatics… They will do everything in their power to escape the tundra and never return for the rest of their lives.
The fear dominated by the “Heavenly Sheath” is the nightmare of all Transcendents.
They might hide within the snow, shrink beneath the Ice Lake, gather all their Extraordinary Aura, and some with special abilities could even reduce their “breathing” to the extreme.
They do not trek, nor do they fight.
They endure, evade, and torment… They certainly know that the tundra’s snow will never thaw, but once the cooperation between the two continents ends, they might have the chance to welcome their spring!
