Chapter 350: Preparing to Explore

~7 min read 1,397 words

After finding the ancient battlefield, the Twin Specter's reconnaissance mission continued; soon, one forbidden zone after another had its vast intelligence gathered by the Twin Specter in silence.

Within many of these forbidden zones, ancient existences had already awakened; at this moment, they were either contending with other factions or spreading outward into the surroundings.

Through the collaborative efforts of the Twin Specter and the Scribe Specter, Lin Feng collected and organized enough information in just a few hours.

Based on this information, he created a new map of the Yinjian factions; according to this map, the distribution of various ancient existences and the changes in their surroundings could be clearly seen.

Among them, there were several special factions that caught his attention; each of these factions was a behemoth from the ancient era.

Located at Corpse Yin Valley, a large number of soldier corpses walked out from underground; according to the Keeper of the Watch, this place belonged to a prison of the ancient Yinjian Ministry, holding various ancient fierce entities, only now these entities had turned into terrifying specters due to contamination.

Those soldier corpses were the jailers arranged here by the Yinjian Ministry; besides these jailers, there were also ancient figures such as wardens and prison-suppressing officers.

It was clear, however, that these people were no longer the Yinjian Ministry members of the past; according to the Twin Specter's reconnaissance results, the danger level here was no lower than that of the ancient battlefield.

The Sea of Dead Spirit Blood, located in the far east of the Yinjian, was also a quite dangerous place; this place was likewise related to a major faction from the ancient era.

The so-called Xue Hai was a sea of blood in the true sense; according to the Twin Specter, the area of this Sea of Dead Spirit Blood was much larger than the land area on Lin Feng's current map.

Correspondingly, this Xue Hai also contained an unknown number of specters, and the ancient existence residing in the depths of the Xue Hai had reached an extremely terrifying level of strength by relying on this Xue Hai and those specters.

There were quite a few such places in the Yinjian, which Lin Feng directly classified as Danger Level One; one must absolutely not approach these places unless necessary, lest one end up inviting disaster upon oneself.

Additionally, what Lin Feng was relatively concerned about was the trail of the Corpse Lord; according to Lin Feng's speculation, the other party must have also obtained an ancient battlefield, as his body, weapons, and some techniques were enough to prove this.

It was just unclear whether the other party was hiding too deeply or if that ancient battlefield had some special nature; in any case, the Twin Specter had not found him yet.

However, the situation within a radius of several thousand miles centered on the military camp was now under Lin Feng's control, which was enough to provide him with sufficient guidance for how to develop next.

"I must take down that ancient battlefield as soon as possible. For this distance, it is best to let the Gluttonous Specter carry a Specter Gate over. As long as the Specter Gate is set up there, the two places can be connected immediately, and exploring the ancient battlefield will be much easier afterward."

Currently, the Gluttonous Specter was hunting specters on the outskirts of the camp to recover its strength; letting it carry the Specter Gate over was the best choice.

The Gluttonous Specter's speed was fast enough and its movements were sufficiently stealthy; even with a distance of several thousand miles, at the Gluttonous Specter's speed, it would take at most half an hour to arrive.

After making this decision, Lin Feng immediately ordered the Gluttonous Specter to take the Specter Gate and rush toward the ancient battlefield.

Some things are better done sooner rather than later; after all, the situation in the Yinjian was changing almost every moment.

After arranging these matters, Lin Feng cleared some time to check on the current state of the Scribe Specter; because Lin Feng had been busy with Yinjian affairs these days, he had not been very attentive to its cultivation.

However, this fellow's strength lay in its high learning talent; after a few sessions of instruction, it had remembered quite a lot, and coupled with the vast knowledge it already possessed, its current state, while still appearing not so clever, was already fine for simple conversation.

"Mas-master, I have al-already collected these records."

Seeing Lin Feng looking toward it, the Scribe Specter answered Lin Feng with a not-so-proficient accent.

"Mm, very good. Classify them according to the different content so they can be found quickly when needed. Specific categories can be divided into craftsmanship technology, historical content..."

Lin Feng nodded and then told it about some book classification methods from his previous life; although the methods Lin Feng knew were very shallow, they were just right for the current Scribe Specter.

"Yes, yes Master!"

The Scribe Specter nodded thoughtfully and agreed; as a specter with good talent in this area, Lin Feng only needed to say many things once for it to understand on its own.

"You can also look at some of the things I collected and organized before when you are free. If there is anything you don't understand, you can ask me directly."

Lin Feng wanted to cultivate the Scribe Specter into a role similar to a military strategist, so it was quite necessary to let it learn to think and study independently.

"Yes, Master, I, understand!"

Hearing Lin Feng say this, the Scribe Specter hurriedly agreed, and then it honestly began to complete the task Lin Feng had assigned, going to classify and organize that intelligence information.

Seeing it was so perceptive, Lin Feng felt relieved; perhaps there would be no need for special cultivation for it in the future, as it would be able to gradually grow up just by letting it see and learn more.

Now, Lin Feng's subordinates, the Scribe Specter, the Embroidery Specter, and the Twin Specter, all possessed their own wills; although the number was not large, the role they could play was enormous.

"Master, the Gluttonous Specter is almost there!"

Just at this moment, the Twin Specter beside Lin Feng suddenly spoke up to remind him; it had to be said that the Gluttonous Specter's speed was indeed fast enough.

"En, is there any hidden place on the outskirts of the ancient battlefield where the Specter Gate can be placed?"

Lin Feng immediately shifted his attention to this aspect and then asked the Twin Specter directly.

For the sake of safety, entering the ancient battlefield directly was certainly not a good choice; it would be better to build a small camp on the outskirts with the Specter Gate as the center.

However, this required the location of the Specter Gate to be sufficiently safe, so as not to be affected by other forces.

"There is. Outside the rift leading into the ancient area, there is a hidden valley where the Specter Gate can be placed."

Soon, the Twin Specter gave a reply, and then Lin Feng immediately let the Gluttonous Specter go to that valley to place the Specter Gate.

Not long after, the Specter Gate was set up; after opening, it connected directly to the military camp, and a troop of paper soldiers that had long been prepared immediately arrived in that valley through the Specter Gate.

Then, according to Lin Feng's requirements, they began to build a camp to protect the Specter Gate while also facilitating communication between the two places.

"Once the camp is built, immediately begin preparations to explore the ancient battlefield. This operation will be led by you, the Twin Specter; the Gluttonous Specter and the Specter Iron Statue will come to support."

"Remember, our target is mainly those things on the ancient battlefield. If it is possible not to disturb those corpses and divine weapons on the battlefield, that is best. If it is absolutely necessary, then act directly and do not hesitate!"

Once the basic preparations were complete, Lin Feng immediately began to issue orders, and he once again had the Twin Specter possess 【the statue】 to prepare to control the Specter Iron Statue to enter the ancient battlefield in person for support at any time.
