Chapter 416: Chapter 294 Help Us, Lord Seventeen (5K)_2

Facing the morning glow, Mu Yuan traveled south for ten kilometers, twenty kilometers… sixty kilometers.

Soon, he was beyond the regular detection range of the Eye of Divine Right.

His speed slowed down a bit.

“There are several rather troublesome monster groups along the way.”

They hadn’t formed camps or tribes, but he judged that these groups of hundreds of monsters were no weaker than the average Monster Tribe.

He noticed at a glance that there were Elite-level monsters among them, and perhaps even stronger ones hidden.

He didn’t investigate closely, nor did he deal with these monster groups.

“Let the Rakshasa and Uta handle these monsters, we should not waste time.”

He intended to go even further.

Of course, even though they tried various means to conceal their presence and hide their forms, they unavoidably encountered some monsters on the way. Sometimes when blocked by a large group of monsters, Mu Yuan didn’t want to waste time and effort detouring a long way around.

“Go, Sario.”

The mark on the back of his hand lit up, and a Frost Giant Dragon over thirty meters long cast its shadow on the ground.

At the same time, an overwhelming Long Wei spread out.

The monsters didn’t even have time to let out a howl before their fates were clenched by the neck.

Following that, Hong Yi jingled a bell.

One after another, Elite Undead emerged from the Lord’s Seal and pounced on the monsters.

In less than a hundred seconds, they had completely eradicated the group of monsters.

They did not attract the attention of any other monster groups in the region.

The stealthy advance continued.

…

At the same time, outside the territory of the Tai Xuan Alliance, many Lords were furrowing their brows.

They were Lords who had encountered unexpected events in their territories during the integration period.

Red Leaf Territory.

Lord Zhou Ye looked at the greatly changed landscape and felt icy cold in the dead of winter.

“Now that we can’t communicate on the Tai Xuan Forum, once trapped in the wilderness, it’s like crying out to an unresponsive heaven and earth. Fortunately, I, Old Zhou, am wise, and had spent a good deal of money to buy a communication Treasure Bead beforehand, connecting to an informant from the One-Handed Chamber of Commerce. I’m now directly connected to the intelligence network of the One-Handed Chamber of Commerce.”

To be precise, it was the One-Handed Chamber of Commerce’s intelligence network stationed in Stone Ridge Town.

But for him, he needed only the information about the vicinity of Stone Ridge Town, as information from other places would be of no use to him.

At the moment, the sound echoed away, and the radiance of the communication Treasure Bead dimmed.

“The good news is, the shift of our territories won’t be too drastic, at most a few hundred kilometers.”

“The bad news is, for a small territory like ours, migrating a few hundred kilometers to the north is also fatal!”

His Red Leaf Territory was also a few hundred kilometers from Stone Ridge Town, which meant it was twice as far now.

Fortunately, Stone Ridge Town also migrated northward along with his Red Leaf Territory in this integration disaster. This was unfortunate for Stone Ridge Town, but indeed a lucky thing for him.

Apart from Stone Ridge Town, many other territories in the region were also forced to migrate northward.

“If only my Red Leaf Territory faced this trouble, I’d be done for, but now there are quite a few fellow Lords in the same boat, so we can huddle together for warmth.”

His first thought was to send elites south to determine the location of Stone Ridge Town.

Only by doing so could he feel a bit safer.

But then he thought it wouldn’t work.

“My Red Leaf Territory lies deep in the wilderness, surrounded by danger. In just this short time, many monsters have already attacked the territory. To cross hundreds of kilometers to reach Stone Ridge Town would be fraught with difficulties.”

He had also conducted exploration and knew just how difficult it was to travel a hundred kilometers north of the territory.

To go to Stone Ridge Town would be even harder.

“Furthermore, the location of Stone Ridge Town is not certain. If I want to huddle for warmth, it’s better to head northeast to find Brother Mu!”

“The territory of Brother Mu is the closest to my Red Leaf Territory, and even if it has shifted northward, it can’t be too far off. And Brother Mu Yuan is a big shot; if I stick to him, I can weather this disaster.”

“Plan set!”

Aim for the northeast of the territory, march out.

…

Hundreds of kilometers away, Stone Ridge Town.

Town Mayor Cui Long had already figured out his situation.

It might not be just a few hundred kilometers to the north. He had ventured deep into the wilderness for many years and had seen the world with the leaders of Pioneer Groups, but the mountain ranges stretching around seemed unfamiliar to him.

The position Stone Ridge Town had shifted to was probably farther than he had thought.

Currently, the focus of the Alliance was on the resettlement of disaster victims.

“Before the Alliance can spare time to deal with us, I must rely on myself. Fortunately, the Red Fog Disaster Moon has just ended, and there are quite a few Lords and high-level players still stranded in Stone Ridge Town.”

It felt somewhat wrong to think like this.

But the presence of these powerhouses significantly increased the combined strength of Stone Ridge Town.

Mayor Cui Long donned a coat and went to the south side of the town, outside the city walls at the railroad tracks.

Many players had gathered there, looking around expectantly.

“The railroad has broken, and Stone Ridge Town has indeed shifted significantly; its current location is unknown.”

“Damn, does that mean we’re now a deserted island?”

“No way, I still have three beautiful wives in Pan Shi City!”

“Can you give me your house number, bro?”

“Stop joking around. Mayor Cui, think of something!”

Cui Long walked over, his Third-order strength permeating the air. Despite his calm expression, his voice wasn’t loud but quickly spread, calming the onlookers.

“Stone Ridge Town has indeed experienced some slight shifting, but there’s no need for panic. We have already contacted the Alliance, and reinforcements will arrive in a few days to reconnect the railroad.”

“However, before the Alliance reinforcements arrive, Stone Ridge Town still needs everyone to work together to overcome the current difficulties.”
