Priest Farul let out a sigh of admiration. The key figure through whom the Sky Abyss Spirit Network had uncovered this crucial intelligence became clear. The focused area of the image enlarged again and moved forward, covering a battlefield still within the range of bombardment. Amid the storm of artillery fire, shattered limbs flew through the air. Armored figures and massive Extraterritorial Species elite troops were locked in a stalemate, advancing and retreating, while large amounts of equipment lay scattered around them.
Some tiny "mosquitoes" still fluttered sporadically through the chaotic scene. On closer inspection, they appeared to be mechanical constructs.
Watching the scene, Farul suddenly said, "It's confirmed that a 'Stone Soul' landed near the Chimei Street defensive line, correct?"
"Ah, yes." Buti froze for a moment before hurriedly replying.
"Update the intelligence. The 'Stone Soul' has already escaped. What remains is merely a thin shell. Its main body has gone deep underground, using civilians in the air-raid shelters to conceal its aura. Where it has gone is still unknown."
"Ah, this..."
Farul gave him no chance to organize his thoughts or words and continued, "If we keep letting it accumulate power within the strata, it will inevitably make a major move in the end... one none of us can afford."
Once the priest had defined the nature of the situation, someone at Buti's level had no room to alter it. Yet this intelligence had come too suddenly, and its implications were too serious. Instinctively, Buti still did not want to believe it so easily. He did not dare question Farul, so he turned his head and looked toward the two Han Guang Mercenaries.
The two were also pointing at the screen. The tall female mercenary bumped the man beside her, while he shook his head, seemingly weighing something.
