"This..."
Hearing Xiao Xiao's words, Ye Feng's brow immediately furrowed.
Along the way with Xiao Xiao, her intuition had always been incredibly accurate...
"I didn't sense anything... even Xiao Xiao isn't too sure..."
Ye Feng's brows were tightly knit as he pondered who might be tracking them.
"Ye Feng, get in the car, it's getting dark!~"
At this moment, Jiang Shishan's voice came from inside the off-road vehicle.
"Alright!"
...
Around eight in the evening,
Ye Feng, Xiao Xiao, and Qiao Ying returned to the core urban area of Oufa City and were having dinner at a noodle shop, while Jiang Shishan had gone home to rest...
"Big Brother, the second light lit up around here before... but now there's only the first light... The enemy might have already gone far!"
After finishing their noodles, Xiao Xiao looked at the Three-Breath Nether Lantern sensor in her hand and mumbled.
"It's fine, let's walk around a bit!~"
Ye Feng put down his chopsticks, stood up, and walked in a certain direction.
...
Half an hour later,
Ye Feng and the other two were walking in a crowded and chaotic gathering place for adventurers. Although it was night and not a night market, due to the relative safety within Oufa City and the large number of adventurers, it was still quite lively...
"Ye Feng, the person you mentioned... do you know what they look like, or any distinguishing features of their clothes?"
"Relying solely on a proximity sensor... it's very difficult to find them like this..."
Looking at the crowds shouting and the杂七杂八 (miscellaneous and jumbled) people, Qiao Ying said helplessly.
"I... I'm not too sure either..."
Ye Feng scratched his head embarrassedly, after all, he couldn't tell Qiao Ying that they were enemies of the survivors... and he didn't even know what the enemy looked like...
"I..."
Hearing this, Qiao Ying was speechless.
...
Ye Feng and the three of them wandered around the crowded adventurer gathering area for a while, dealing with some troublemakers, but found nothing.
"Big Brother, the second light!"
Just as Ye Feng and the three were leaving the adventurer gathering area and planning to go back to rest, Xiao Xiao's excited voice sounded.
"Let's go, let's find a higher spot to look!"
Seeing the second light on the Three-Breath Nether Lantern sensor in Xiao Xiao's hand, Ye Feng made up his mind. With a few leaps, he quickly ascended to the roof of a bungalow, with Xiao Xiao and Qiao Ying following closely.
Upon reaching the roof, Ye Feng and the two looked around and simultaneously took out their telescopes to observe.
"Ye Feng, could it be over there!"
Qiao Ying found something first, pointing in a direction and speaking.
"Which direction?"
Ye Feng looked in the direction Qiao Ying pointed, but seeing no one, he asked somewhat bewilderedly.
"They ran into an alley just now, it's impossible to see from this angle!"
Qiao Ying replied quickly.
"Big Brother, the people around... many of them were already here when we were walking... those few drunkards are unlikely to have just appeared..."
"The few people on the ground who were robbed were knocked down by you just now..."
At this moment, Xiao Xiao, after observing, chimed in.
"Let's go, let's check the place Qiao Ying mentioned!"
...
With flashes of movement, Ye Feng and the two quickly arrived near the alley Qiao Ying mentioned. Two dark figures flashed by and headed straight in one direction.
After nodding to each other, Ye Feng and the two silently followed the two figures in black robes.
"This..."
In a short while, Ye Feng was astonished because he saw the Ouroboros emblem embroidered on the black robes worn by the figures in black.
"Are these two people from the Dark Holy Cult? Those who captured the survivors before... seemed to be from the Dark Holy Cult as well..."
Ye Feng narrowed his eyes, his expression quite solemn.
...
Ye Feng and the two followed for a while, arriving near the abandoned district on the east side of Oufa City, where zombies occasionally appeared.
"These two guys... are they following that rat with red glowing eyes? And that rat also has the Ouroboros emblem..."
"Can that rat track survivors?"
Ye Feng muttered to himself, following the two figures in black robes.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, the Ouroboros emblem on the rat with red glowing eyes also emitted red light.
"Whoosh whoosh!"
Seeing this, the two figures in black robes immediately stopped abruptly, and Ye Feng and the two also stopped, hiding behind obstacles.
The two figures in black robes no longer ran. They nodded to each other, then tiptoed towards a moss-covered stone house in front of the rat.
"Bang~ Crack~ Bang!"
With a flash of red light, the stone house window was broken, and the two figures in black robes rushed in swiftly.
"Ah!~"
The next second, a piercing scream came from the stone house.
"Ah!~"
"Who are you, let me go!"
Accompanied by a cry of pain, a strong middle-aged man was dragged out of the small wooden house by two figures in black. The strong middle-aged man's neck was tied with a rope, and his hands were twisted behind his back.
What surprised Ye Feng was that the middle-aged man had a silver bracelet on his right wrist, with a holographic screen projected next to it.
"As expected, they are survivors!"
Seeing this, Ye Feng sighed softly in his heart.
"Big Brother?"
At this moment, Xiao Xiao looked at Ye Feng with a questioning gaze and said softly.
"Hmm!"
Ye Feng observed the surroundings and nodded, preparing to rescue the survivor.
But at this moment, a figure flashed, and before the two figures in black robes could react, their bodies were pierced by two ice-blue lights, instantly turning into ice sculptures...
The next second, the figure in the black night suit shot an ice-blue needle towards their rear right, piercing a large rock and hitting a rat with red glowing eyes at the base of the rock, the very rat that had led the two figures in black robes here.
The rat with red glowing eyes jumped forward, attempting to escape, but in mid-air, it turned into an ice sculpture just like the two figures in black robes...
"Bang!~ Clink~ Crack crack!"
After being frozen into an ice sculpture, the rat with red glowing eyes fell to the ground and shattered into pieces...
"So strong!"
Ye Feng's expression was solemn. Before the opponent made a move, he hadn't even sensed them...
"Thank... thank you..."
At this moment, the strong middle-aged man broke free from the rope around his neck and thanked the person in the night suit, but was knocked unconscious by them.
"Whoosh! Bang~ Bang!"
"Crack crack~ Clink!"
The figure in the night suit smashed the two figures in black who had turned into ice sculptures into pieces, then picked up the unconscious strong man and disappeared from the spot with a flash.
