After purifying the two infants, Ai Jiangtu instructed Jiang Yu and Mu Tingying to investigate the matter concerning the infants.

What's so infuriating is that these were children who were devoured. They were in the city, in the Safe Zone; how could they, barely able to walk, possibly have ventured into the Demon and Monster Land, and how could they have been swallowed whole by these Crimson Ling Demons?

Demon Beast could be allowed to occupy the vast majority of the territory, roaming freely across a wider land.

We can endure the invasion of large numbers of Demon Beast and live a life of humiliation by compressing the Safe Zone. But we will never allow Demon Beast to run rampant and be so cruel as to devour human infants as food!

In fact, Tang Miao always felt something was off when he saw those children.

How could a child from this Safe Zone have been devoured by such a damned Sea Monster? He immediately left, hoping to find something...

Jiang Yu and Mu Tingying obeyed orders and returned to Fei Niao City, while the others remained on the island.

"What do we do next?" Guan Yu asked.

Ai Jiangtu said coldly, "Find their lair and kill them all in one fell swoop!"

As a graduate of a military academy, he naturally couldn't stand idly by and do nothing about it.

Nan Jue said with some helplessness, "But where are we supposed to look?"

Upon hearing Nan Jue's words, Ai Jiangtu calmed down slightly.

This is ultimately the territory of Demon Beast, and we need to be certain whether there are any Commander Level Demon Beast here.

Their reckless intrusion was indeed very risky.

Just then, Tang Miao, who had just left, returned with a Crimson Ling Demon. He immediately said, "This little thing is perfect for leading the way!"

"Crimson Ling Demon of Servant Level??"

One of them muttered as he looked at the little demon queen that Tang Miao was carrying.

Tang Miao tossed the little demon in front of Jiang Shaoxu and said, "Leave a mark for it, then we'll follow it to its lair!"

Nan Jue looked at Tang Miao, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "If it really is a clan, then there must be Commander Level being. The few of us going might not be able to handle it..."

"As for Commander Level officers, I'll handle them."

If anyone else had said this, probably no one present would have believed it. But Tang Miao's words... considering those two Commander Level Contract Pet, it didn't seem like a problem at all!

Since Tang Miao had said so, no one had any objections.

Those selected from various universities are all incredibly powerful, but what sets them apart from seasoned professionals is their youth!

Young people are quick to anger. The municipal government and the military might weigh the pros and cons of exterminating the demons, but they won't be so indifferent. Once their bottom line is crossed, what's wrong with killing their way to the Sea Monster's lair!

Jiang Shaoxu usually Demonic Energy and likes to flirt with all the men on the team, but she is clearly not the kind of person who climbed to this position through such means.

She's just a playful person, but when it comes to things like this, she's the kind of person who feels obligated to help.

After Jiang Shaoxu placed an imprint on it and then used Mind Element shock technique to intimidate it, Tang Miao's Cloud -Cloud-Treading Boots appeared on his feet. Then, he kicked it away.

Next, all they need to do is follow this mental imprint, and the little Crimson Ling Demon will lead them to the Crimson Ling Demon's lair!

At this moment, everyone was filled with rage. By the time Little Crimson Ling Demon he had escaped, the group had already boarded a ship and were silently following behind him.

Little Crimson Ling Demon was swimming very fast, and the ship was giving chase at full power...

Several islands dot the azure ocean, standing silently in this sea for countless years.

Each island is not very large, much smaller than the small island where everyone was before, mostly only two or three times the size of a stadium, and none of them have a diameter of more than 500 meters.

Seeing the shattered island like this, everyone's hearts sank.

If it were a large island, they could fight the Crimson Ling Demon on the island and lure them to a place without water, which would be absolutely advantageous for them.

But such fragmented islands simply cannot prevent them from entering the sea.

Since they are Sea Monster, their most terrifying weapon is not their sharp claws, but the seawater.

"I've investigated. There are four broken islands in total. There's one in the middle, and the other three form an irregular triangle that surrounds the central island. The three outer broken islands are inhabited by Sea Monkey Monster covered in brown fur, while the inner broken island is inhabited entirely by Crimson Ling Demon." Guan Yu had gone to investigate, returned to the ship and said to everyone.

Nan Jue asked, puzzled, "How could there be Sea Monkey Monster?"

"Sea Monkey Monster are among the most spineless races in the ocean. You can find these vassal servants in almost every powerful Demon Race clan or tribe. They are generally weak in combat, but they are very good at finding food, stealing, and escaping. They are extremely servile, so this race is the most common in the ocean." At this moment, Nan Rongni from the Ocean Academy spoke up.

Nan Rongni is from the South and is the talkative type in the group. She is slightly closer to Mu Ningxue.

However, Tang Miao clearly remembered that this little bitch was no good... He had even warned Mu Ningxue, but unfortunately... her well-intentioned reminder went unheeded.

In the end, Tang Miao had no choice but to let it go. After all, time reveals true character, and there would always be a time when Mu Ningxue would cry. Before that, Mu Ningxue was willing to befriend her, so she would naturally treat her indifferently.

Some things are better seen than believed.

At this moment, Ai Jiangtu asked, "Are there many Sea Monkey Monsters?"

Guan Yu replied, "I've done some research, and there are about two to three thousand Sea Monkey Monster on the three islands. It's not a huge number, but it'll be a bit troublesome to deal with them."

Ai Jiangtu then asked, "How many Crimson Ling Demons are there?"

Guan Yu told the truth, "I can't give an exact count. The Crimson Ling Demon's senses are much sharper than the Sea Monkey Monster'. I can't get too close to their nests. I estimate there are about one hundred to two hundred of them."

In the end, he only made an estimate; if he were to act cool or pretentious at a time like this, he would probably be a bit foolish.

In fact, if things aren't made clear, he'll be the one to bear all the blame if something goes wrong.

Nan Jue, resting his chin on his hand, said, "No wonder they say that there is a clan of Sea Monster. If there are more than a hundred Crimson Ling Demon, their fighting power is already comparable to that of a small clan."

Ai Jiangtu paused for a moment, then said, "If the Crimson Ling Demon are only as strong as those on the island, wiping them out shouldn't be a problem. The real concern is in the sea. If they grow stronger, we'll be constrained, and this imbalance will put us at a disadvantage..."

Mu Ningxue then spoke up, "If these islands aren't too far apart, I can freeze the sea between them."

Everyone was slightly taken aback, but quickly understood.

After all, they had witnessed the power of Mu Ningxue's arrow.

Ai Jiangtu still asked, "Freeze them all? Do you need any other Ice Element mages to help you?"

"Unnecessary."

Mu Ningxue shook her head and said, "But then, I won't be able to participate in the battle."

Ai Jiangtu said, "If we can freeze the sea between the four broken islands, it will be equivalent to restricting the strength of the Crimson Ling Demon. We can leave the rest to us."

The group readily agreed, and immediately began searching for a suitable location. After all, her own safety was a concern when the sea was frozen.

If this matter is not handled properly, it will pose a very serious threat to her.

At this moment, Tang Miao said, "I will have her Contract Beast guard her, so you don't need to worry about her safety."

The Shadow Demon Tiger was clearly not very effective in fighting at sea. However, it was enough to protect Mu Ningxue.

Now, Ai Jiangtu and the others were even more confident!
