Chapter 1498: Adventure
With a patrol captain leading the way, as the city gates opened, a stone pathway rose from the Lava Lake, wide enough for several horse-drawn carriages to travel side by side.
Thanks to the captain’s explanation and description, everyone was extremely respectful towards Li Yao, especially when they heard the captain boasting about receiving the god’s blessing to level up, making them all look at Li Yao earnestly. However, Li Yao sat atop a spider tank the whole time, not lifting his head or sparing a glance at them.
Fueled by the captain’s description and their sensing of the aura, no one doubted or dared to doubt, so in the face of Li Yao’s indifference, no one dared to speak up.
As they entered the fortress, Li Yao slightly raised his head: "Hmm, why are there sounds of battle?"
The gate leader quickly replied, "It’s just some fools who used some method to sneak into the fortress and even summoned an army. But the Defense Officer was wise and brave, using them to train the new recruits. However, later another terrifying person arrived, destroying two training grounds, and those two groups started to go mad, somehow continuously summoning armies."
"The Defense Officer has been killed by that terrible person, and the general is furious, ordering the annihilation of those two groups. But the two groups are cunning and have joined forces, plus they can summon elite troops, causing us quite a headache. What’s more crucial is that the enemy who turned the fortress upside down has disappeared, as if evaporated into thin air, impossible to find."
Li Yao snorted in feigned dissatisfaction: "Alice is getting more and more useless, such a mess in the fortress—if it delays the master’s grand plans, she could die a thousand times and still not atone for her sin."
The few leading the way didn’t dare to respond. How could they comment? They dared not provoke a Divine Envoy, but neither could they provoke their own boss, so they pretended not to hear it.
