598: Chapter 598 Finding an Elder Hall
“I am Putian Xiaoyezi. Does Mr. Dongfang have any instructions?”
After getting the Elder Hall’s approval, Putian Xiaoyezi replied.
“Mr. Dongfang said to ensure the safety of the Okshung warships as much as possible and lure them into the Mordo hinterlands.”
“When was this order given?” Putian Xiaoyezi asked.
“Early this morning.”
Putian Xiaoyezi stopped pressing the issue.
Okshung was trash; it didn't matter where they were taken.
Breaking down this instruction, two contradictory keywords were hidden: safety and lure.
This indicated that although Oriental Chen had established a cooperative relationship with Okshung, he was mostly using them.
Since the Elder Hall agreed, Putian Xiaoyezi didn't care and drove them towards the Mordo eastern core area.
Oriental Chen frowned when he saw Putian Xiaoyezi execute his order.
The actual situation deviated from his expectations.
Putian Xiaoyezi didn't leave the warship to ask the Elder Hall for instructions but directly carried out the order.
If she didn't go to the Elder Hall, he wouldn't be able to track the Elder Hall's exact location.
He guessed there were two possibilities for this outcome:
One was that Putian Xiaoyezi had higher authority;
The other was that she and the Elder Hall had other means of communication.
Undoubtedly, the second possibility was greater.
To verify his guess, he quietly activated the Great Sun Country warship's electromagnetic shielding function.
After the function was activated, he ordered the warship to send out a new message.
“Mr. Dongfang orders that if the Okshung warships reach Kashan, adjust their route and drive them to Zahei on the Mordo-Indian border, to rendezvous with the 27 warships stationed there.”
Putian Xiaoyezi was baffled after receiving the message. What exactly did this Oriental Chen want to do?
If these warships were driven to Zahei, they could leave Mordo at any time. It was not far from India-Pakistan and Egula.
Moreover, the message itself was very strange.
Could Oriental Chen predict in advance that Okshung's warships would pass through Kashan? The possibility was too low, wasn't it?
“Could he monitor the internal situation of Mordo?” Putian Xiaoyezi began to suspect.
This matter needed to be reported to the Elder Hall.
However, at this moment, she discovered that the information could not be sent out.
“No signal?” Putian Xiaoyezi smelled something unusual.
“Chong-kun, slow down the pursuit. Arrange for 5 warships to blockade the south to prevent them from escaping in the direction of the Red Sea. I need to leave for a moment. Everything will be decided after I return.”
“Hai!”
Putian Xiaoyezi frantically ordered the warship she was on to turn around and fly towards the direction of the Elder Hall.
“Phew~” Oriental Chen wiped away a sweat.
After so much effort, Putian Xiaoyezi finally fell for it.
Currently, Oriental Chen was unclear about the exact form of existence of Mordo’s Elder Hall. Without a reference, targeted reconnaissance could not be carried out.
If he couldn't clarify the situation today, he would basically lose the chance to find Mordo's altar.
Two hours later, 12:30 PM.
Putian Xiaoyezi arrived at Muyinak, a small town in northern Mordo.
This had basically reached the handover area with Olos Country.
It was a small city located on the edge of a soon-to-be-dry salt lake, mostly simple bungalows and adobe houses.
Putian Xiaoyezi disembarked from the warship and entered a bungalow.
“Reporting to the Elder, Oriental Chen may have gained the ability to monitor us.” The Hall Master Elder was not present, so he reported the situation to the Guest Elder.
“Impossible! Communication signals cannot penetrate here, so how could he monitor?” The Guest Elder didn't believe him.
“Elder, if we weren't being monitored, Oriental Chen couldn't possibly know my fleet like the back of his hand.” Putian Xiaoyezi still insisted on her point of view.
She was not overly deferential towards the Guest Elder.
“Perhaps they have a well-developed plan. Even we ourselves cannot communicate directly with the outside world, so how could Oriental Chen do it?” The Elder simply didn't believe this could happen.
“Alright! Now my warship has been shielded and cannot send or receive messages. What do you think we should do next?” Putian Xiaoyezi no longer insisted.
She also knew that her evidence was insufficient.
“The Okshung warships are nothing to fear. Your main task today is to find a way to trick Oriental Chen’s warships into Zalaf. The Main Sect has already dug a grave for him there.”
“Hai!”
Putian Xiaoyezi accepted the order and quickly returned to the fleet.
Oriental Chen also successfully found the exact location of the Elder Hall as he wished.
However, he was currently unaware that there were as many as 108 such Elder Halls within Mordo.
According to his understanding, this should be where the Moni Sect Main Sect was located.
Fortunately, to avoid exposing his ability to monitor Mordo, he did not choose to attack immediately after Putian Xiaoyezi left.
Otherwise, this attack would have led to extremely serious consequences.
