Jin Yin's gaze was as gloomy as water as he stared at the corpse at his feet.
Mo Ta's head had been separated from his body, his neck forcibly broken.
Although Jin Yin and Mo Ta had always been at odds, he couldn't help but be silent when he saw Mo Ta's death.
"Where is the destination of the snow shuttle ship An Sa brought back?" Jin Yin suddenly asked.
Jin Yin's voice was sharp, like the howl of a sinister wind. Hearing it, one could only feel the sinister air seeping into one's heart.
"It's Zargan," the subordinate immediately answered hastily.
"We'll search in the direction of Zargan."
Jin Yin shot a glance at the subordinate who had just spoken and said coldly, "You take two more people and go back to report this news to Boss Wen or Captain Yuchi."
"Yes, sir!"
Wen had always been wearing a mask on his face. The silver mask was engraved with patterns as fine as silk, and in the center of his forehead was a dark red diamond-shaped gem that looked like a demonic eye.
The five captains stood respectfully in front of him with their heads bowed.
Among the seven captains, the one who had followed Wen the longest was Captain Yuchi Bai of the first small team. He had been with Wen for seven years.
Wen had been wearing this mask since the first time he had seen him.
No one knew what kind of face was hidden under this somewhat demonic mask.
"Jin Yin went after them?"
Wen's voice was very soft and feminine, mixed with a strange vibrato that seemed to have magical power.
His long hair naturally draped over his shoulders, glossy black and suffused with a heart-palpitating luster.
"Yes, sir!" Yuchi Bai stepped forward and answered respectfully.
Yuchi Bai wasn't tall, only 1.7 meters, with a square face and thick eyebrows. His appearance was plain, but he had a steady and lofty manner as he stood there.
"Mo Ta and the third small team were completely wiped out." Yuchi Bai continued to report. His expression was as usual, without the slightest fluctuation.
"Oh."
There was a rare surprise in the voice coming from under the mask, followed by a light laugh. "Heh heh, to be able to defeat Old Mo San, it looks like this little rat is pretty interesting.
But he shouldn't be able to wipe out a small team by himself. "
The expressions of the other small team captains weren't so natural.
Among the captains, Mo Ta was only ranked third behind Wen and Yuchi Bai.
Not only did Mo Ta lead Team Three, but he was also the third strongest in the team, so everyone liked to call him Third Mo.
Apart from Yuchi Bai, none of the squad leaders present were as strong as Mo Ta. How could they not be shocked upon hearing that Mo Ta's entire team had been annihilated?
Among them, the one who was the most shocked was Sa 'an. He had thought that Mo Ta would definitely be able to hunt down that expert. He did not expect to receive news of Mo Ta's death.
"According to the intelligence Jin Yin sent back, the other party has lured a large number of ferocious wild beasts, including the Thousand Leaf Flying Centipede, Dingbirds, and Snow Wasps.
Judging from the corpses of the team members, they all died at the hands of these wild beasts.
Only Mo Ta's neck was struck by a powerful shuttle-shaped energy body.
In addition, all the valuable things on them have disappeared, most likely taken by the other party. "Yuchi Bai narrated in an orderly manner.
His slender fingers were as white as jade, gently stroking his smooth chin. Wen squinted his eyes, like a cat being blinded by the sunlight.
"Sigh.
Looks like he's more professional than us. Maybe he's also someone on the Black-Line Star Listing.
Who on the Black-Line Star Listing is good at dealing with wild beasts? "
"Only Zong Da and Quincy.
Zong Da's Mermaid Horn uses sound to control beasts. It's superb, and it's ranked 71st on the list.
Quincy's Thousand Sections can simulate brain waves and thus control the mind. It's ranked 44th on the list. "
The one who answered was a small, skinny man. His body was as thin as a tree, but his eyes were moving very strangely.
Gan Lin, the captain of the sixth squad, was good at gathering information.
He immediately added, "But it shouldn't be these two. One of them is helping to hunt beasts on the ice plains, and the other just appeared at the North Peak exchange meet two days ago."
"Interesting!
Looks like there's going to be a new person popping up.
It's a pity that of all the people he could have provoked, he just had to run into our hands. "Wen looked at his flawless right hand, his gaze full of regret.
After a moment, he withdrew his gaze and said leisurely, "Then wipe him out."
"What a pity about that card in Ah Xin's hand," a fierce-looking man said darkly. He was Bao Le, the captain of the fourth squad.
The probe card in Ah Xin's hand had always been something that everyone had coveted for a long time. It was only because of Mo Ta's power that they didn't dare to be too obvious.
Now that Mo Ta was dead, they naturally had no misgivings.
A cold look flashed through An Sa's eyes. He and Bao Le had never gotten along.
"Ha ha, according to convention, whoever has the spoils of war belongs to whoever has them." Wen's enchanting voice made Bao Le's gaze abruptly blaze.
"Bao Le requests to attack!" Bao Le lowered his head and respectfully requested Wen's order, secretly giving another squad captain a meaningful look.
Sure enough, that squad captain stepped out from the crowd and said respectfully with his head down, "Chief, Jeremy is willing to lead the second squad forward."
"Go."
Wen's voice didn't carry the slightest hint of smoke and fire as he lightly waved his beautiful right hand like a woman's.
The two of them looked at each other and showed their joy.
Although Chen Mu didn't know who his adversary would send, he knew very well that they certainly wouldn't leave it at that.
He wasn't in a hurry to escape, but he found a hidden place to hide.
He was studying the probe card that had been giving him such a headache. If his adversary still had such a card, he would be miserable.
The dark brown wavy composition covered the entire surface of the card, and there wasn't a trace of sloppiness in the fine lines, which were unspeakably neat and clean.
At a glance, Chen Mu determined that the card's maker had profound attainments.
In the lower right corner of the card was a line of small characters — Snake Lens.
A five-star probe card!
Chen Mu's heartbeat abruptly sped up, and he couldn't help but swallow.
No wonder his adversary could detect his existence. It turned out to be a five-star probe card!
How rare were five-star cards?
Apart from the Big Six, five-star cards were absolutely rare in any other place.
What's more, it was an unorthodox probe card?
Chen Mu immediately determined the value of the card.
His perception tried to export the energy from the power card and input it into the Snake Lens.
A fine energy wave abruptly spread out with him as the center.
At the same time, countless hexagonal energy bodies as smooth as mirrors appeared in his world of perception.
The hexagons were boundless and connected to each other without any gaps, looking like a wall.
Suddenly, a fuzzy image started to appear on each of the hexagonal energy mirrors.
Chen Mu immediately sped up the input of energy, and the images on the energy mirrors quickly became clear.
So that was how it was!
Chen Mu was pleasantly surprised.
The images on each energy mirror had different contents, and he didn't need to think about it. The positions of the images appeared in his mind almost at the same time.
How magical!
It wasn't that Chen Mu hadn't seen probe cards before, but he had never seen such a magical probe card.
He closed his eyes and carefully experienced the wonders of the card.
He had a deep memory of the energy wave emitted by the probe card. If it weren't for that lingering energy wave, how could he have been discovered?
The core of the card was the energy wave it emitted.
The intensity of the energy wave was so low that it would have been overlooked by someone who wasn't sensitive to perception.
Its most frightening characteristic was that it had a strong inducing effect on perception.
Card artisans were always used to emitting their perception at all times, which allowed them to have more insight into their surroundings.
The Snake Lens took advantage of that.
Once the energy wave emitted by the Snake Lens touched a card artisan's perception, it would induce a subtle change.
Perhaps the card artisan being probed wouldn't be able to detect the change, but the Snake Lens could very accurately capture the change and determine the adversary's position.
Whoever designed the Snake Lens was a genius!
Chen Mu couldn't help but admire it to himself.
The energy wave emitted by the Snake Lens was quite similar to the one he had encountered in the Eastern Wei Academy auditorium, but the Snake Lens was undoubtedly a lot more advanced.
With the Snake Lens, Chen Mu could be said to be like a tiger with wings, although he still couldn't bring out the full power of the Snake Lens.
The appearance of the Snake Lens could make up for the shortcomings in his tactics.
His attention shifted to the card he'd plundered from Mo Ta's body.
The glittering card looked as though it was made of gold, and the composition on the card's surface was magenta. It was grand and luxurious, rather heavy in the hand, and had a great texture.
The Golden Word Shackle was a five-star card!
When Chen Mu used the card to emit the golden energy chain, he was shocked.
The structure of the energy chain emitted by the Golden Word Shackle was extremely complicated.
At first glance, they looked like a chain composed of little rings condensed from energy. But the structure of each energy ring in the energy chain was actually entirely different.
The energy chain was composed of 81 interlocking energy rings, with three sharp golden triangular energy bodies hanging at the front of the chain, and a golden energy ball at the tail.
The structure of each energy ring was extremely complicated and exquisite. Even with Chen Mu's current level of card making, he couldn't help but admire it.
He dared to affirm that the Golden Word Shackle certainly had its inheritance, but the dark-faced man clearly hadn't gotten it.
The years were merciless, and the inheritance of the Golden Word Shackle had probably long since been annihilated in the merciless years.
If he hadn't guessed wrong, the key to the Golden Word Shackle should be the word. Chen Mu's gaze flashed, and his expression was focused.
