"Elder, there's an idea to what happened last time. The one who attacked us was a genuine Mercenary, and the one who attacked us was a fake Mercenary." Qiong Si said to Fei Yu.

Fei Yu was now an honorary elder of the Temple of Darkness, it was normal for him to be called an elder.

False Mercenary mission: There are no missions officially announced in the Mercenary Union, the Guild of Mercenary does not recognize the authenticity and validity of these missions. Whether it is the employers or the Mercenary, neither can be guaranteed.

"Don't, you should just call me Fei Yu, calling me Elder is a bit awkward. Hmm, since it's a False Mercenary quest, have you found out the employer? " Fei Yu said.

"No, but according to reliable information, the employer, even if it is someone who doesn't die out his Temple, is closely linked to it."

"En, and also, if we go scout, there shouldn't be many people who know, so how did the information leak out?" Fei Yu asked.

"This... There are indications that there is a traitor, that the date and route of our travel has been leaked out, which is why we were attacked by the Mercenary. " The Source River was not like a belt, but like a tree, with its source and downstream tributaries being numerous. Even the main branch had three branches, so if no one revealed the information, it would be very difficult to intercept it.

"A suspect?" Fei Yu raised his eyebrows and asked.

"There's a range, I believe the truth will be revealed very soon." Jonesy said with a hundred times more confidence.

"Let's hope so!"

"Oh right, can you confirm the reason why the source river contains the Power of light now?" Jonesy said.

"Not yet!"

"Why?"

"Just a single crystal mine is not enough to supply us with so many Power of light s." Fei Yu said.

"Isn't the Power of light in the water very weak? Isn't one crystal mine not enough? " Jonesy asked curiously.

However, if we pass through Mu Yangcao, it will be different. The Power of light that Mu Yangcao has leaked is extremely limited, and the small piece of Mu Yangcao that we found, can barely supply a single branch of Power of light. " Fei Yu said.

"So that's how it is. It seems that I'm not lacking in comparison to you at all!" Jonesy said.

"You're not bad too."

"Thank you! Are we going to continue the investigation? "

"Of course, there's always a conclusion, isn't there?"

"Alright, I'll arrange it!" Jonesy said.

Three days later, when everything was ready, at the mountain side where Temple of Darkness was, there was a huge lake, and this time they were going directly from here.

Furthermore, in view of the previous attack on the ship, this time there was not only one stronger ship, but two warships as escorts. Within the sphere of influence of the Temple of Darkness, unless one was tired of living, no one would attack this fleet.

Of the other eight elders, five of them came to send off the Sixth Elder. The Second Elder, the Fourth Elder, and the Seventh Elder, who were absent, had to carry out missions, and it was simply too late to rush back. Even at the last moment, the Palace Mistress herself appeared to send Fei Yu off.

"Phew …" It's really not easy! " Finally, the fleet entered the river, and the people who went to send them off could no longer see them. Fei Yu, who was on the deck, let out a long sigh as he sat on a chair.

"Cluck, cluck …" Jonesy laughs at Fei Yu's performance.

"Is it funny?" Fei Yu said gloomily.

"No …" It's not funny. " Jonesy stifled a laugh, but it was hard to bear, and her face was flushed.

"You!" She placed her delicate hand on Fei Yu's forehead and started to massage his shoulders with him, one on the left and one on the right.

"If you want to laugh, laugh. Stop holding it in!" Fei Yu said.

"Hehe, don't tell me it's that uncomfortable to send you off?" Tisriel said.

"That's right!"

"No one else wants this kind of scene yet!" Tisselier said, slightly dissatisfied.

"Yes, yes, yes, it's my fault, okay!" Fei Yu said.

Cluck, cluck …

The four girls all laughed.

Amidst the bell-like laughter, the second examination began!

"What? The red vine and the green incense are useless? Is the news accurate? " Inside the Light Temple, the Great Clan Elder was shocked when he received the report from the intelligence department.

"Yes!"

"Has our plan been leaked?"

"No, according to the sources, there is a person called Fei Yu who is extremely familiar with the characteristics of red vine, and that's why Temple of Darkness found out about this plan."

"Bastard, it's him again. The first plan is exposed because of him, the second plan is because of him. Don't tell me he is our nemesis."

The furious Great Clan Elder had his hair standing on end, the intelligence officer who was reporting to him had his heart trembling from fear!

"Send the order, the light and shadow group is to go out, kill them all!" The report was torn to pieces by the enraged Great Elder.

The light and shadow, a secret cultivation technique used by Temple s, was specially used to assassinate various experts and dignitaries. It had extraordinary strength!

The expedition this time went without a hitch. It had been more than ten days since they sailed, and up until now, they had not encountered any problems.

"Look, what's that?" Tisriel suddenly asked, pointing to a white dot in front of them.

"Ice block?" The white dot was actually a basin sized Ice block.

"The Source River originated from the Alcatel plateau, and the climate there is exceptionally cold. There are countless snow-capped mountains, and on the mountains there are also a large amount of snow, so the water of the Source River originates from these snow. In the upper reaches of the Source River, large chunks of ice and snow would frequently slide into the river, and although this is not very common in the upper reaches of the Source River, it is not strange." Jonesy explained.

"Is this place near the source of the River Source?" Fei Yu asked.

"Yes, right now, we are at a relatively large branch of the Source River, which is also the furthest branch of the Alcatel plateau. Further in, according to the current season, the plateau should be covered by a world of ice and snow." Jones explained.

On the second day, more and more Ice block s appeared on the surface of the river, appearing six times in the morning. The captain had already started arranging special personnel to monitor the appearance of ice floes on the surface of the river, while the archers were on standby, ready to blast the ice floes into pieces with their magic arrows to prevent the ice floes from hitting the ship and causing damage.

On the third day, Fei Yu and the rest had no choice but to disembark.

What's wrong?

The branch river was extremely small, and Fei Yu and the others were riding on large ship s that were thirty meters long and six or seven meters wide.

Furthermore, they had already reached the frozen region. There was a large amount of snow on both sides of the shore and floating ice was everywhere in the river. For large ship, it was simply too unsafe!

It was a good thing that everyone here possessed an extraordinary Cultivation Level, so the effect of the change in temperature was almost zero.

"Wait, stay alert." From the moment he had landed on the shore, Fei Yu had been constantly monitoring the changes in the Power of light in the river, and in this main channel, the Power of light had stopped there.

"What's wrong?" Jonesy asked.

"Let's go down to the river. This should be the place!" Fei Yu said.

"Be on alert. If anything happens, immediately alert the others." These people were all transferred from Temple of Darkness Headquarters.

"Sixth Elder, how can I warn you?" The captain of the guard said. Naturally, the captain had to stay on the ship, and these people were part of the guards that followed from the Temple. As long as Elder Qiong Si made her move, they had to follow and protect her.

"Three little fireballs, hit the same point on the water surface." It was not that the Temple of Darkness only knew how to use dark system, it was just that cultivating the dark system gave one an advantage.

"Yes sir!" The guard captain said.

After putting on the necklace, You Lan, Jessia and Tishali were arranged to stay on shore to guard. Fei Yu and Jonesy were sent into the water to observe.

This place could also be considered as the source of the water. The water was a bit deeper, and only after Fei Yu and the Fine Jade Silk descended a few dozen meters did they get close to the bottom of the water.

As expected, there was a large expanse of Mu Yangcao in front of him, which was much larger than the one he had discovered earlier.

"Fei Yu, can you sense any crystal mines underground?" With her Cultivation Level, he wouldn't be able to tell if he had it or not.

"No, but there is a Power of light gathering at the bottom!" Fei Yu said.

"There's a Power of light gathering here. Could it be the magic array?" Jonesy asked.

"Just take a look and you'll know!" waved his hand, and water gushed out, causing a large portion of Mu Yangcao's body to be swept up by the strong water flow. However, it did not harm the riverbed, it all depended on one's control of energy.

Obviously, in terms of power control, Fei Yu was extremely precise!

On this point, Jonesy could only nod and sigh.

When the aquatic plants were picked up, the hornets' nest had already burst open. Thousands upon thousands of fish had been roused up. Each fish was only the size of a palm. Their bodies were slender and long, but all added up together, it was a spectacular sight.

"Be careful, this is a demon piranha." Jonesy warned.

Without needing Jonesy's reminder, just looking at the dense teeth shining with a cold light in the mouth of the fish, Fei Yu knew that these little guys were not easy to deal with.

"demon piranha?" At the same time as he asked, a true essence shield appeared beside the two of them, blocking him completely.

"Yes, these demon piranha's bodies are stronger than the rocks, and they are immune to magic below the six levels. As long as there are places where demon piranha live, other than plants, there will not be any other Magical Beast."

"Is that so?" The zhenyuan opened its mouth wide, and a demon piranha took the opportunity to rush in and bit off Fei Yu's finger.

As a super Celestial domain Ranker, Fei Yu's body had already been strengthened to a terrifying degree. The only things that could break through Fei Yu's defense were the so-called divine instrument s, as for the bite of this man-eating fish, haha, it was all in vain.

The demon piranha biting onto Fei Yu's finger was shocked: "Mother, didn't you tell me that 'Child, our teeth are the sharpest, in this water, there is nothing that we can't bite!', but what kind of Magical Beast is this!? "My teeth are about to break, but when I look at his again, his skin isn't even damaged!"

"You …?" Seeing that Fei Yu did not even use Dou Qi, Qiong Si shockingly opened his little mouth wide, like an 'O' shape, no matter how much that demon piranha bit at his without suffering any damage.

"Let's continue!" With a thought, the shield immediately grew. Ignoring the obstruction of the water pressure, in the blink of an eye it had expanded to a diameter of over ten meters and blocked the demon piranha outside.

After careful examination, the two of them found traces of the magic array under the soil. It was a simple and crude magic array that gathered mana, and its ability to gather mana was the same as the magicite crystal that controlled the magic array.

This was a very good explanation for why Mu Yangcao grew up here, it was because the magic array was used to gather the Power of light for them!

Also, demon piranha, because the concentration of Magic Elements here was much higher and they were good for many demon piranha, demon piranha stayed here.

"Up!" Since she had already investigated the cause, her mission was half completed. As for the other half, it was about Fei Yu …

"How was it, did you get anything?" Jessica asked, seeing the two of them disembark.

"Yes, look at it?" The demon piranha was still in Fei Yu's hands, and the reason it was called a demon was because of the fierceness of these cannibal fish. As long as it was bitten, and could not bite a piece of meat, even if it died, it must not let go.

"demon piranha?" Tisriel was surprised.

"You've seen it?" Fei Yu asked.

"Yes …" According to the ancient records, this is the first time I have seen such an aquatic Magical Beast. " It's pretty.

Indeed, the demon piranha's body was covered with bright silver scales and was a streamlined shape. Although it was not as ugly as those ornamental fish, it was by no means ugly.

Of course, this was on the premise that you didn't see those gleaming teeth!

"Okay, do you want to continue the investigation?" Fei Yu asked.

"According to this situation, the other sources should also be in a similar situation. If there are no differences between the two of them, then we can confirm that they have returned back to the Temple to report." Jonesy said.

"Alright, let's move out. The next source!"

At this moment, the sounds of fighting and angry roars of beasts came from not too far away.

"Be on alert, the two of you go take a look at the situation. The others will fight with Formation. Prepare to fight!" The team that he brought from Temple of Darkness displayed the qualities of an elite, quickly forming up the team, guarding and scouting.

There was no need for investigation, he had already appeared far away. A Magician in front was running with all his might, and behind him, there was a white bear chasing after him.

"That's a high altitude ice bear, level nine Magical Beast, earth and water alike. They're good at melee combat." Jonesy said.

With their current lineup, as long as a few Saint-level magical beast do not come, there would be no problems. The key point was that if an outsider appeared, although this investigation was not top secret, but it could not be leaked so easily to avoid unnecessary trouble.

"Halt, who is it?" When the Magician saw that there was someone here, he immediately turned and ran over.

"Help me!" Only now did he realize that the person before him was female magician, but he looked to be in a sorry state. His long mage robe was torn in many places, and his body was dirty and messy.

"Save him!" Without Jonesy's order, even if the female magician was eaten, the guards could only watch. This was a rule.

"Yes!" "You guys, follow me to save them. The rest of you, stay behind. Be careful!" The captain ordered.

The Guard Captain was a level 9 swordsman herself, plus her equipment was not ordinary, there were also a few capable subordinates, she was not afraid of level 9 high altitude ice bear at all.

"Kill!" With an explosive shout, the magic spell and the bow were released. The high altitude ice bear was caught unprepared and hurriedly knocked the bow away, but its right leg was injured by the magic spell.

June Ribbon's guards were the elites of the Temple of Darkness, the guards who were responsible for the safety of the higher ups of the Temple, the guards who were chosen and chosen by ordinary warriors, those who were loyal and qualified, and who had passed three years of intensive training, elimination selection, and three times of elimination selection. Only then could they become reserve members, only becoming a reserve member.

The reserve team member was not yet a real guard, he still needed to serve in the most dangerous place, carry out the most dangerous mission, and survive for five years. In addition, he had to have outstanding military merits, and his martial prowess had to reach at least the eighth rank before he could become an official member of the guard and officially go on duty!

It would consume a lot of manpower, material, and financial resources. If it was used in the army, it would be enough to sustain a thousand-man army for ten years. The difficulty of training these guards would be reflected in the fact that they were strong.

Furthermore, even though there were so many people in Temple of Darkness, the total number of guards had never exceeded 3000.

This time, when Qiong Si came out to inspect, she brought out a fifty man team. On one hand, it was because the Temple was important, and on the other hand, it was to let Fei Yu see the sincerity of the Temple.

This kind of elite team, even if they only fought seven or eight people, they would not have any problem dealing with a single high altitude ice bear.

The high altitude ice bear's leg was injured, but before it could react, the Binding Dark Magic had already arrived, immediately followed by the Guard Captain and three other members, the four swords arrived, the Guard Captain cut off the head, one member stabbed into the heart, two members cut off the legs, and in the blink of an eye, the high altitude ice bear was killed.

"Immediately investigate and see if there are any other high altitude ice bear around. Everyone else, stand guard!" the captain ordered.

"Who are you? Why are you here? " The Guard Captain asked, not showing any mercy, even though this was a female magician.

"I am Qian Qian, level eight Magician, a member of the Condor Adventurer Group. I am here to hunt for high altitude ice bear s and originally, I had already completed my mission, but before I could recover, two more high altitude ice bear suddenly appeared, causing the entire group to be killed by the high altitude ice bear, with the exception of me!" female magician cried. His tears flowed down his face, revealing his true beauty.

"I hope you're telling the truth!" The Guard Captain's duty was to protect and not to trust anyone, especially those he didn't know, so as to not bring danger to his target.

"Really, if you don't believe me, you can send someone to investigate, my comrade …" Woo woo … * "The corpse is still there, please, can you bury my comrade!" female magician pleaded pitifully.

"Big Brother Fei Yu, let's help her!" In the end, it was Jessica who was soft-hearted, he shook Fei Yu's arm and begged.

"Go bury her comrades!" Fei Yu nodded, Qiong Si also nodded, the captain of the guards instructed.

"Thank you everyone, thank you everyone!"

After a while, the few guards that had been sent out returned.

"Reporting, 800 meters ahead, six human corpses and four high altitude ice bear corpses were discovered. According to the evidence, two were killed due to arrest, and the other two due to panic. The six human corpses were caused by high altitude ice bear, there are no other suspicious marks, the corpses have already been buried, the traces have been cleaned up, and the report is complete!"

"It's been hard on you, return to the team!" Jonesy said.

"This little girl thanks everyone. I wonder if I can trouble you with another matter?" female magician said.

"Speak!" Jonesy said.

"Can you, can you let me join your team? Everyone, don't worry, I will definitely not bring any trouble to you, as long as you all leave Alcatel plateau, I will leave immediately!" In Alcatel plateau, if a level eight Magician were to travel alone, there was basically no hope of survival.
