791: Chapter 792 Undercurrents Surge_1 791: Chapter 792 Undercurrents Surge_1 “Xiao Mu, what exactly happened here?”
At this mont, a middle-aged man dressed in the special forces uniform leapt down from his Great Lake Eagle and asked, glancing behind him at the man confronting Agunas and referred to as Xiao Mu.
The middle-aged man, unfazed, said,
“Just a minor accident.”
“A minor accident?”
The special forces man gave Agunas a doubtful look and scrutinized the middle-aged man.
He wasn’t foolish; he had only instinctively excluded his own people from suspicion previously, but now, seeing this situation, how could he not understand what had happened?
“Mu Weihua!
What on earth are you doing!”
The special forces man yelled, sowhat angrily, but the middle-aged man remained unaffected and calmly said,
“Captain Shen, how we handle this is a matter for our police task force, not your concern.”
“Not our concern?!”
As if hearing so ludicrous joke, Captain Shen bellowed at Mu Weihua,
“The Special Bureau and the Elder Council have been calling us to ask what exactly happened in Dao Lake City!
The Monitoring Division has detected signs of Divine Beasts in action here nurous tis.
Now you tell , how is this not our concern!”
“I tell you!
With the ss you’ve made, no one can save you!”
Although there possibly was an issue on the side of the Divine Beasts, didn’t he see the students around looking ready to devour Mu Weihua with their stares?
With the situation like this, how could Captain Shen not understand who was in the wrong?
“This has nothing to do with you.”
Mu Weihua stubbornly stated.
Feng Yuan yawned and said,
“So what exactly do you intend to do?
Drive people away or what?”
“Excuse , but could you tell what the cause of all this is?”
With a cordial expression, Captain Shen asked Feng Yuan, while his Great Lake Eagle landed beside him, vigilantly eyeing Mu Weihua as if ready to strike at any mont.
Although both were Great Lake Eagles, Captain Shen’s eagle was close to evolving, while his own had just evolved.
Therefore, Mu Weihua, although regretful, was unable to take any action.
Dou Yanlan stared at Captain Shen, expressionless, and slowly recounted what had just occurred.
After hearing Dou Yanlan’s explanation, Captain Shen was surprised and took a look at Dou Yanlan.
The way she reported was very particular, without involving personal feelings.
She simply recited the events objectively, which not everyone would do.
Suspecting Dou Yanlan’s background, Captain Shen said warily,
“So, the origin is the boat reservation platform?”
“Indeed it is.”
Looking at Mu Weihua, Captain Shen said sowhat angrily,
“Do you have anything you wish to explain?!”
“What is there to explain?
Since when can your special forces dictate actions to my police task force?”
“Fine!
I hope you can be just as tough when you explain yourself to your Commander-in-chief Wu!”
Captain Shen roared angrily.
After calming the rage in his heart, he decided to ignore that fellow and turned to Dou Yanlan with a friendly smile, saying,
“We are aware of the issue you ntioned.
Is it possible to make it stop?”
Although it wasn’t Lorraine Tower, since the Monitoring Division had mistaken it for Lorraine Tower, it indicated that the entity must also be at the level of a Divine Beast.
They naturally did not dare to act too rashly towards such a being.
Seeing Dou Yanlan look towards him, Feng Yuan stepped forward and spoke to Agunas,
“Alright, even though it wasn’t who asked you to do this, if you actually use it, Elder Li would probably show up, right?”
“That ancient ruin shows no special reaction.”
With a swipe of its paw, the ultimate move that was gathering power slowly dissipated as Agunas calmly stated.
Feng Yuan froze for a mont before realizing what Agunas was referring to and said, sowhat surprised,
“You were just testing that ruin?”
“Otherwise?
With a ruin of such colossal scale, if any accidents occurred, I can’t guarantee everyone’s safety.”
Agunas wasn’t too worried about Feng Yuan’s safety because if sothing happened, that guy might not even be affected, but protecting Qi Chen and others made it less confident.
Generally, the larger the ancient ruin, the greater its power, and considering the scale of the ruins here, if it were to fully activate, the force unleashed could be as potent as the energy released during Nagna’s eruption.
Although there was still so gap compared to Agunas, when it ca to an outburst, it really couldn’t say for sure if it could protect anyone in ti.
“Is that so…”
Clasping his chin, Feng Yuan hesitated sowhat.
Just like what Agunas was worried about, he also wasn’t sure if he could protect Qi Chen and the others from the attacks of the suddenly erupting Ancient Ruins.
Qi Chen asked with so confusion,
“What’s wrong with the ruins?”
“The Ancient Ruins here cover a large area, and it is almost a complete ruin that is still functioning normally.
I have asked about it, and these ruins should be a legacy from the Mythical Era.”
“And with the technology of the Mythical Era…
such a massive facility, once it launches an attack, its power wouldn’t be weaker than that of Divine Beasts.”
Agunas flicked its tail, speaking with so unease.
Although it wasn’t sothing it couldn’t handle, when that ti ca, the creatures on Lake Bai Dao would face a great calamity.
Mu Weihua glanced at Agunas, who seed to be expecting sothing, and Agunas, flicking its tail irritably, said,
“To actually protect you guys isn’t about whether the defense is insufficient, but because the Ancient Ruins attack without any warning, and I don’t have the foresight abilities of Lorraine Tower, so I simply can’t protect you all in the nick of ti.”
“Right!
The foresight!”
Reminded by Agunas, Feng Yuan slapped his forehead and excitedly exclaid, to which Agunas glanced at Feng Yuan and said annoyed,
“That’s Lorraine Tower’s innate ability.
Don’t tell you can borrow that too?”
“Heh heh—why not?”
Agunas rolled its eyes and didn’t respond to Feng Yuan.
Such innate abilities were not like strength; how could they possibly be borrowed?
Feng Yuan smiled slightly, took out the Dark Ancient Book and spun it in his hand.
A black Rune Circle appeared behind him, and sensing that eerie power, Agunas was stunned for a mont and then said with a wry smile,
“I had indeed forgotten about its abilities.”
With apologies from Team Leader Shen and the arrival of the chief of the police forces, the turmoil was barely quelled, but Mu Weihua was not an isolated case.
That day, nurous complaints about the Dao Lake City police forces cropped up on the internet.
Lying in bed, Feng Yuan shook his phone and said,
“What on earth are they up to?
Almost all the complaints are about the police forces.”
“Sothing seems off, but it didn’t tell exactly what happened.”
Agunas said with so dissatisfaction, its power was fundantally focused on the past and couldn’t effortlessly peep into and obtain useful information from the boundless future like Lorraine Tower could.
“It’s probably soone who intends to ddle with the Ancient Ruins,”
Feng Yuan suggested a possibility, and hearing his words, Agunas paused and then said,
“If that’s the case…”
“Forget it, never mind, as long as you have the foresight ability, if things go wrong, just open a portal and take them away.”
Feng Yuan said sowhat helplessly.
As for the other people?
Agunas was not a Space Divine Beast after all; to simultaneously evacuate the islands on Lake Bai Dao where people lived, only Gitalien could do that, but that guy seed to have made an early getaway and currently was nowhere to be found in Dao Lake City.
Hearing a knock on the door, Feng Yuan got up, opened the door, and saw outside were Qi Chen and Dou Yanlan.
Feng Yuan asked with so puzzlent,
“What’s the matter?”
“I’m sowhat concerned about the odd actions of the police forces; do you know sothing about it?”
Dou Yanlan spoke while looking around.
At this mont, they were staying in the special forces dormitory, and she wasn’t sure if they had planted any listening devices in the dormitories.
“I don’t understand, either they have sothing against Great Xia, or there’s so special purpose.”
“They seem to be driving people away, do you think…”
“Evicting tourists…
and even the chief seems to have tacitly consented to their actions, perhaps sothing happened in Dao Lake City.”
Feng Yuan thought for a mont, the attitude of the chief and the special forces team leader towards Mu Weihua had been strange at the ti.
It seed they weren’t very angry at Mu Weihua’s actions, and the chief even helped cover up for Mu Weihua.
“Why not directly notify the tourists to leave?
Even if it’s for the Lake’s Brave Ones event, this seems excessive…”
“An internal disagreent, huh?
They really do know sothing.”
Recalling what Gitalien had said, Feng Yuan’s expression grew dissatisfied.
After exchanging a few words with Dou Yanlan and Qi Chen, since they had to participate in the Lake’s Brave Ones event the next day, they didn’t talk too late before bidding each other goodnight and going to rest.
The special forces dormitory in Dao Lake City was situated near the edge of Yongzhen Island.
Looking through the window, Feng Yuan could clearly see the wind whipping up waves on the lake surface under the moonlight.
