189: I don't like the feeling of being locked in a cage!

Li De Yang was greatly alarmed, "Is it that serious?"

"Yes, we arrived in Anta County this morning, and after we got here, we conducted a brief investigation," An Qingyu said.

This trip to Anta County was the Reserve Squad's first operation, and An Qingyu had specially cultivated a batch of rats with excellent cold resistance.

"We found many traces of outsiders nearby. Although we can't confirm their identities, since Song Zhong appeared here, it's very likely that these people are the prisoners who were abducted earlier."

"What?" Li De Yang knew that the Zhaijie Institute had been attacked before, but he never imagined that one day, these prisoners would appear here.

What's going on? They finally succeeded in escaping from prison, but instead of hiding, they're coming here as a group for tourism?

"What is this Song Zhong doing bringing so many people here? Does he want to seize our Anta County city?" Li De Yang asked in a lost voice.

Lin Qi Ye nodded, and the others also nodded.

Li De Yang was a bit bewildered. What do you mean by nodding? I was just exaggerating to ease the tension, why are your expressions so serious?

"We originally wanted to keep it from you, after all, this matter is considered confidential," Lin Qi Ye sighed and said, "This Song Zhong has already put out word that he wants to seize Anta County."

At this, not only Li De Yang was stunned, but Chen Han was also stunned.

"Is there something seriously wrong with this Song Zhong? Besides the freezing cold, there's also dangerous mist here. What does he want with this place?" Chen Han asked.

"Too presumptuous!" A surge of anger suddenly rose in Li De Yang's heart. Although he didn't know why he was so angry, "No matter how poor Anta County is, it's still Great Xia's territory. Now someone dares to covet it. Even if I risk my life, I will protect Anta County."

Everyone was moved by Li De Yang's indignant words.

Lin Qi Ye looked at the scruffy uncle and said seriously, "Captain Li, as long as we still have a breath left, we won't let such a thing happen. Therefore, the subsequent rescue mission is entrusted to you."

Li De Yang nodded. He could feel that although these young people in front of him were young, their Realms were all above his.

...

In the primeval forest, Song Zhong traversed the snowy ground with He Lin.

As for the other believers, Song Zhong divided them into 50 small groups and began searching according to the map's designated areas.

Song Zhong remembered that the ruins of Fengdu Ghost City and the lair of the red giant ants roaming in the primeval forest were together.

As long as he found one red giant ant, he could follow the clues and find the great ground fissure hidden deep in the forest.

Secondly, since the remaining believers, carrying the altar, were also hidden in this forest, it would be even better if he could find them as well.

According to He Lin, those people had an altar in their hands, but according to the original text, Yue Huai had two altars.

If they summoned any Egyptian Gods, the consequences would be unpredictable.

Although he still possessed a Divided Soul and could temporarily exert the power of a God, there was still an unknown factor here: Li De Yang.

This guy might Awaken at any time...

After sorting out the current situation, Song Zhong found it increasingly interesting. The more chaotic the situation, the easier it was for him to fish in troubled waters.

With such a big commotion he had created, the Night Watchers must know the situation. Song Zhong did not believe they would ignore it.

It was foreseeable that soon, a batch of Great Xia's Peak combat power would inevitably gather in Anta County.

Song Zhong looked at his panel. His Realm was still at the Peak Klein state.

He had to hurry up and find some Materials. As long as he gathered 5000 sacrifice points and unlocked the tenth bronze coffin, he would be able to step into the Realm of human ceiling.

At that time, if he successfully obtained the fragments of Fengdu Ghost City and integrated them into his Ghost Country, he might even Break through to the God Realm in one fell swoop.

And the giant ants with the [Bloodline Sacrifice] talent seemed to be a good sacrifice Material.

Song Zhong took out the forbidden item [NJY] and sent a message to the various small groups, "Everyone, I am waiting for your good news here."

When his believers saw the message, their eyes glowed with fervent light.

"It's a Miracle, the God has given us guidance!"

"Everyone search carefully, we must complete this mission."

"There seem to be some footprints ahead."

The fanatical believers, undeterred by the severe cold, searched in the primeval forest.

He Lin, who was following Song Zhong, suddenly remembered something and said, "Lord Song Zhong, I still haven't been able to contact the President recently. If you successfully occupy Anta County, I'm afraid the entire Great Xia will have to focus all its energy on dealing with you."

"Not necessarily!" Song Zhong said indifferently, "Do you know the purpose of the altar in Yue Huai's hand?"

He Lin shook his head, "I don't know."

"That altar can summon the Nine Pillar Gods of Egypt, and there is more than one such altar."

He Lin's face changed, "What? Are you saying that guy Yue Huai intends to summon the Outer Gods to Great Xia?"

He Lin certainly knew of the Nine Pillar Gods' existence, after all, when the Shang Xie Society planned to blow up the Egyptian temple, He Lin also participated in part of the plan's formulation.

"Yes, at that time, with the Outer Gods eyeing us covetously, the Great Xia Night Watchers will be too busy dealing with them, how could they have the energy to bother with me?" Song Zhong said.

"But..." He Lin had an indescribable feeling in his heart. Those chosen by Memorial to join the Shang Xie Society were actually not normal people.

He Lin was also like that; he was originally a stoic man with little emotion, but hearing this news, he felt uneasy.

"If that's the case, how will Great Xia resist? The Gods of Great Xia, after a fleeting appearance in Cangnan, have not been heard from since." He Lin began to worry.

"Hehe, it's a Miracle that someone like you has been undercover in the Ancient God Church for so long," Song Zhong teased.

"Actually, tracing back history, the Shang Xie Society and the Night Watchers were originally one, but something happened later and they separated," He Lin said, "Never mind, if those things really happen, I can't help much."

He Lin looked at Song Zhong, "Anyway, it's good to just follow you. Oh, right, after occupying Anta County, what do you plan to do?"

"Of course, it's to transform the environment, increase the population, and turn them all into my believers," Song Zhong said.

"No, are you serious?" He Lin was surprised. He had always thought that occupying Anta County was just a smokescreen released by Song Zhong.

"If you do that, aren't you just creating a Human Realm?" He Lin suddenly thought that Song Zhong's actions were essentially the same as those of the Outer Gods.

"Of course, if not for these, what would I use to get out of the mist?" Song Zhong looked at the mist wall in the distance, "I don't like the feeling of being trapped in a cage."
