Just as they were about to leave the camp, bioren suddenly perked up, his gaze snapping toward the depths of the forest

Almost at the same time, Clive picked up on it too. “Over ten people, and they’re coming in fast

Everyone instantly went on high alert, and the Eve of them quickly retreated deep inside the cave

A few minutes later, a group of people appeared at their camp.

At the front was Cassian, flanked by Wendy, Ray, and Jonathan, along with seven heavily armed strangers

None of them looked weak, the lowest were at Pinnacle Level 5, and the strongest, a scar-faced guy, turned out to be at Moderate Level 6.

Looks like they really showed up,” Elmer muttered under his breath.

Wendy was holding something like an energy detector, sweeping it around the area. “The signal disappeared right here. Damn it, they slipped away again!”

Cassian’s expression was stormy. “They ripped out the blueberry tree and made off with the crystal ore…

Whoever did this, they’re going to pay for it!”

The scar-faced man crouched down, inspecting the ground. “Yeah, there were people camping here last night. No more than ive of them.

They covered their tracks real well. Pros, for sure.”

onathan suggested, .”Cassian, should we split up and look around?”

ust as Cassian was about to speak, Wendy’s energy scanner suddenly blared with a sharp alarm.

Wait! This energy fluctuation…” Wendy said.

nside the cave, everyone’s nerves were stretched tight.

Cassian grabbed the detector and scanned the area with it, but the signal had vanished again

He tossed the detector, still shrieking, to Wendy’s beast mate Ray his expression thunderous

“The signal’s gone,” Cassian said

The red dot that had been blinking on the detector’s screen had vanished completely

It was as if the Starvein Blueberry Tree and the crystal ore had simply evaporated from the energy bald of Zene 12

Wendy, unwilling to let it go, grabbed the detector again and scanned every direction miside the cave ban got nothing but

The footprints at the entrance are stattered, leading northeast After them?”

“Hold up.” Cassian said, raising his hand to stop them. His keen gaze, & trait of his peacock heritage swept over the unus ady thick vines on the far side of the cave.

“Wait, right here…” Cassian murmured.

He walked over and pulled the vines aside.

The rock wall was perfectly sealed, not a single opening in sight.

Yet that unsettling sense of being watched lingered.

‘Damn it, they slipped away again,” Wendy muttered through clenched teeth, “We’re always just a step too late!”

Cassian’s expression darkened as he scanned the cave once more, taking in all the signs that it had been recently used.

The campfire still radiated warmth, the ground had been carefully leveled, and in the corner sat a small bag of energy bar wrappers, abandoned in their rush to escape.

They can’t have gotten far,” Cassian said coldly. “There are only two reasons the signal disappeared: either they planted the Starvein Blueberry Tree in a Spatial Realm, or the tree’s dead.

Either way, they’re still in Zone 32.”

onathan walked in from outside the cave. “Cassian, there’s a temporary outpost nearby. The military’s stationed there, and some adventurer teams are resting up.”

Adventurer teams?”-Cassian asked.

At least three teams fit the bill,” Jonathan said, pausing for a moment. “And the outpost’s in a great spot, backed up against a liff, easy to defend, hard to attack.”

Wendy’s eyes gleamed. “Cassian, do you think we should…”

Let’s go,” Cassian said, finally lowering his hand. “We’ll follow the signal.”

The sound of shuffling footsteps and hushed voices gradually faded into the distance.

#bet they discovered it before us, but the Shadow Demont Beast was guarding it, so they couldn’t get close

“By the time they finally took down the Shadow Dernon Beast and came bask, we’d already made off with at

“Thankfully, Dory’s Spatial Realm was big enough to stash the blueberry tree and all that crystal ore Otherwise we would on been busted ages ago.”

Dora nodded.

“Forget what they’re up to,” she said, turning away from the cave entrance, her voice firm. “We’re sticking to the plan and heading for the wetlands.”

The five of them slipped away into the woods, disappearing without a trace.

Their destination was the reed beds along the edge of the wetlands.

Clive figured there might be some small, docile mutated birds living there, just right for catching and training as pers

Plus, the wetlands were right next to the mineral vein area they wanted to investigate next, so it was convenient for them to swing by.

But they quickly realized that the path to the wetlands had become suspiciously lively, far more chaotic and dangerous than ever before.

Less than two hours after leaving the cave, they’d already been attacked by three waves of mutated alien beasts.

The first wave hit them with a flock of Level 5 Mutated Steel-Beaked Crows, over a dozen dive-bombing from the canopy catching everyone off guard. Lioren’s wind blades and Elmer’s golden shield teamed up to blast the birds apart and break heir formation.

The second wave came from two Level 6 Mutated Swamp Crocodiles, lying in wait in the shallows before lunging out without warning. Clive faced both beasts head-on, while Rafe swooped in for the kill. After a grueling twenty-minute partie hey finally brought the monsters down.
