Xuan Wei’s words surprised the four people present.
They did not expect there to be a traitor among their own people who had been secretly demonized!
The faces of the five witch doctors quickly flashed through their minds. They seemed to be normal, but when they thought about it carefully, they felt that there was something abnormal.
Shuang Yun hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he chose to voice his doubts.
“Not long ago, we launched a surprise attack. The plan was jointly executed by the city lords of Black Crystal City and Blue Crystal City. However, before they could reach the camp of the demon race that night, they were intercepted halfway.”
Xuan Wei quickly understood what he meant. “Do you suspect that someone tipped them off?”
“I thought someone might have accidentally leaked the information, but after what you just said, I keep thinking that the traitor might be behind this.”
“That’s very likely.” Xuan Wei’s expression was solemn. “We have to find this traitor who’s colluding with the demons as soon as possible. Otherwise, we’ll be in deep trouble!”
Bai Di said, “Let us know if you need any help. We’ll do our best.”
“Go ahead and do your own things. Leave the tracking of the traitor to me.”
In order to track down the traitor, Xuan Wei entered the camp as part of reinforcements and took the opportunity to secretly observe the five witch doctors.
Ever since they found out that there might be a traitor in the camp, Shuang Yun, Bai Di, and Xue Ling no longer dared to let Huanhuan run around the camp. No matter when or where, she had to have at least one male beast mate with her to ensure her safety.
Five days passed like this.
The other five city lords finally couldn’t sit still anymore. They looked for Shuang Yun together.
“We only have a month. Almost two weeks have passed, but we haven’t completed the missions. If we continue to delay, our missions will all fail!”
Shuang Yun was actually quite anxious, but the identity of the traitor was not clear yet. The five city lords and the witch doctors they brought were very suspicious.
If they attacked the demons again, it was hard to guarantee that the news would not be leaked.
The last time, they lost a hundred beast soldiers. That was a lesson learned.
The city lord of Blue Crystal City said, “I know that we lost a lot of beast soldiers the last time, but that was just an accident. If our plan is more thorough this time, it definitely won’t happen again.”
The other four city lords nodded in agreement.
Shuang Yun glanced at the city lords of Blue Crystal City and Black Crystal City. “Have you recovered from your injuries?”
They replied in unison, “We’ve recovered!”
“Really?” Shuang Yun raised his hand and pressed it on their shoulders and arms.
The two of them immediately turned pale from the pain.
Shuang Yun looked at them calmly. “The two city lords have yet to recover from their injuries. Let’s wait for them to recover before entering the demon race’s territory.”
“But…”
Shuang Yun interrupted their excuses. “As you just said, we have to plan carefully this time. The last situation can’t happen again. The two city lords are very strong and as part of our main combat forces, they have to be healthy in order to unleash their true strength. That way, our chances of winning will be higher.”
The two city lords were speechless.
Shuang Yun stood up. “That’s all for today’s meeting. Dismissed.”
With that, he strode out of the tent, leaving the five city lords looking at each other.
The city lord of Blue Crystal City returned to his tent. Not long after he sat down, Jiang Bo arrived. As he changed the city lord’s dressing, he asked, “How’s the discussion going?”
The city lord sighed. “Shuang Yun doesn’t agree to attack now.”
“Why? We don’t have much time left.”
“That’s right. Time is precious, but as the commander-in-chief, Shuang Yun refuses to go to battle. There’s nothing we can do.” The city lord looked at the wound on his arm. “But he’s right about one thing. I have to recover quickly. Otherwise, I won’t be able to go to the battlefield.”
Jiang Bo frowned. “Your wound is very deep. You can’t make large moves for the time being. Otherwise, you’ll easily tear the wound again, causing your injury to worsen.”
“Then what should we do? I have to go to the battlefield. Otherwise, without no one to command our troops, we won’t be able to complete the mission. All our previous efforts will be in vain!”
Jiang Bo pondered for a moment. “I have a way to help you heal your wound quickly, but there might be some aftereffects.”
1
“What aftereffects?”
1
“There’s a chance you’ll have a lot of headaches. You’ll be irritable and uneasy as well. Sometimes, you might even want to kill others.”
2
The first few words stunned the city lord. “Murder?”
1
“If your self-control isn’t strong, you’ll indeed feel the urge to kill people. However, if your self-control is strong enough to suppress the killing intent in your heart, then you’ll look no different from an ordinary beast.”
1
Hearing him say this, the city lord felt that the aftereffects did not seem serious.
2
The city lord weighed the pros and cons. Compared to a little sequela, it was clearly more important to complete the mission and gain the chance to upgrade to a medium-level beast city.
2
He made up his mind. “Then give me that medicine!”
Jiang Bo asked again, “Are you sure?”
“Positive!”
1
The city lord was confident in his self-control. He would definitely be able to suppress his killing intent and prevent the damned ‘sequela’ from acting up.
Jiang Bo smiled. “Please wait a moment. I’ll get you the medicine now.”
…
Huanhuan was fishing by the river. Big Goody, Dos, Tres, and Little Monster were sitting beside her. They looked at the fishing rod with their dark green eyes as if they were curious about how this thin rod could catch fish.
Bai Di placed a hide pouch beside Huanhuan. “Are these earthworms enough?”
Huanhuan opened the pouch and looked inside. “That’s enough.”
She took out two more improvised fishing rods that had just been made. The hook was made from sharpened bone. It couldn’t bend, but there was a barb on the end.
Huanhuan hooked the earthworm to the end of the bone, then swung the hook into the river.
At this moment, Shuang Yun walked over. “What are you doing?”
Big Goody said, “Mom’s fishing.”
The obedient children said in unison, “We can eat fish tonight!”
Shuang Yun touched their heads, then looked at the bamboo basket beside him. It was empty. There was not a single fish. He asked, “Why haven’t you gotten any fish?”
“I just started fishing. The fish won’t take the bait until later.” Huanhuan stuffed the fishing rod into Bai Di’s hand and told him to stay still.
Bai Di glanced at Shuang Yun. “I heard those city lords went to discuss attacking the demons with you again?”
“Well, they’re all anxious to get the job done, but the matter about the traitor worries me.”
Bai Di said, “I understand, but you can’t keep stalling. There’s not much time.”
Shuang Yun sighed. “I know as well that time is running out.”
