So, after hearing Kanna's words, Frostnova voluntarily stepped forward, willing to persuade the opponents to surrender.
After receiving the answer, Big Brother ACE followed Kanna's guidance to one direction, and Kanna walked to another direction alone. Both simultaneously turned and charged towards the target point.
The mbers of the Phantom Squad were originally squatting there, observing the situation of Rhodes Island's group, preparing to sneak in and check after they fell asleep. It was clear that this fully ard team was heading for the ruins, and they had previously repelled a wave of Reunion Movent forces that had pursued them. They had to clarify the situation of this team and then report back to their cadres.
As a result, they saw two people, one large and one small, co out and wander nearby. At the ti, they thought they were taking a child out to relieve themselves, so they didn't think much of it. They didn't expect the two to separate after coming out. By the ti they noticed, the two were already rushing towards the Phantom Squad's position.
"We've been discovered?" One of them wasn't ntally tough enough, so he was a bit nervous when he saw the other party's actions.
"How is that possible? With our strength, we could easily evade these people's detection even in broad daylight, let alone on a night so dark you can't even see your fingers," said another person hiding in a pit.
"No! We've been discovered!" At this mont, the Phantom Squad Captain, who was outside, also noticed the two's movents. Although the adult's gaze was very shifty, clearly not having noticed his group, the subtle smile on the girl's face after seeing his gaze clearly indicated she had noticed his actions.
He imdiately jumped out of the pit he had dug for shelter, preparing to flee into the distance.
Just then, a purple light streaked past his eyes and embedded itself in the ground not far away.
Turning to look at the little girl whose left and right hands were glowing with purple light, he could only lead the others to rush through the opening that the two approaching individuals had deliberately left for them.
Just as they reached a small depression, the biting cold wind around them grew even fiercer. Accompanied by teeth-gritting sounds of ice forming, all mbers of the Phantom Squad were astonished to find themselves frozen in place.
This speed and efficiency of freezing reminded them of one person, a high-ranking cadre of Reunion Movent, the leader of the Yeti Squad, Frostnova.
"It really is you!" At this mont, a familiar voice ca from nearby.
"Dajietou (Big Sister)!" The several individuals initially thought it was a cadre from their own side, but when they turned their heads, they saw a very beautiful fox they had never seen before.
At this mont, the fox was staring at the Phantom Squad.
Normally, the Phantom Squad, when using Originium Arts, could indeed "disappear" from Frostnova's sight, but in this snowstorm, with their feet frozen by Frostnova, she was now able to clearly see these few people.
"Ethan! So it's you. Doctor wasn't wrong. It seems the leader in this ruined city is Old Fogey!" Frostnova recognized the leader as an acquaintance, Ethan, and his companions, who were often dispatched to provide support to her and Old Fogey.
"Hiss! Dajietou (Big Sister)?" Hearing the familiar words from the fox's mouth, the Phantom Squad felt a chill run from their feet straight to the top of their heads.
"Oh my goodness, Dajietou (Big Sister) has been turned into a fox by the evil Rhodes Island!"
One of them couldn't help but blurt it out.
"What do you an turned into a fox? You guys are still as talkative as ever... Let ask you sothing, has the Yeti Squad returned?" At this mont, Frostnova beca quite relaxed upon seeing an acquaintance. Thinking back to when she believed she was going to die and arranged for the Yeti Squad to return with a ssage, she casually asked.
"They returned in the afternoon. Patriot also heard the news of your death... Wait, wasn't Dajietou (Big Sister) dead?!" Ethan looked at Frostnova with a horrified expression. The appearance of soone confird dead made them incredibly scared.
"Due to so special circumstances, I survived, but the price was becoming what I am now. This happened after the Yeti Squad left, so it's not their fault for not knowing. Now, please get so good sleep first. I'll tell you what happened later, if there's an opportunity."
At this mont, Kanna and Ace also arrived, so Frostnova ended her conversation with the Phantom Squad.
Ace pulled out a bundle of ropes from his waist and threw them to the mbers of the Yeti Squad, then quickly retracted his hands into his pockets.
"It's too cold, tie yourselves up!"
Seeing that the individuals were frozen at the feet and couldn't move, Ace shalessly squatted to the side, preparing to watch them tie themselves up.
"Yes, yes, yes, just like that. The one next to him, don't just stand there, give him a hand! Tighter! Good, well done!" Of course, Ace didn't do nothing; his mouth was constantly moving, directing the individuals to tie each other up.
After they were all tied up, Kanna jumped into the middle of the group and stomped hard, causing the ice blocks at their feet to shatter and scatter.
Seeing Kanna's terrifying kick, the few individuals who had been thinking about finding an opportunity to escape imdiately followed obediently, with no intention of fleeing whatsoever.
Are you kidding? Not only could this little guy see through their Originium Arts at a glance, but with that one kick, no one wanted to experience it, because trying it ant dying.
When they walked back to the camp, they saw Amiya looking at them with a reproachful expression.
"Such a big matter, and you didn't even say anything beforehand. What if sothing went wrong?!"
It was one thing for Kanna and Ace to be gone for half a day and not return, but for Frostnova, who was still under Rhodes Island's "monitoring," to also disappear into the crowd, how could Amiya not be anxious?
It was fortunate that Doctor had cald her down, otherwise she would have already led people out to search for Kanna and her group.
"Relax! It's just a few peeping little mice. Ace and I can handle it in minutes. No need to make a big fuss!" Kanna waved her hand, acting as if it was a small matter not worth overreacting to.
"It's Savra, not Zalak..." Hearing Kanna's words, Ethan couldn't help but retort.
At this mont, Frostnova also walked in from the end of the line and jumped onto Doctor's head.
"Are they acquaintances?" With just one sentence, Doctor guessed that these individuals must know Frostnova, otherwise, given Kanna's habits, even if these people were alive, their appearance wouldn't be so neat.
"The Phantom Squad is mainly responsible for Reunion Movent's external reconnaissance missions. This squad has been assigned to Old Fogey and by Talulah for a long ti. Their presence here proves that Doctor's previous speculation was correct: Talulah tricked Old Fogey into coming out so that we wouldn't hinder her actions."
Frostnova explained to the people around her.
Hearing Frostnova practically expose all their secrets, the mbers of the Phantom Squad resigned themselves and no longer resisted.
