Fulong Mountain had become completely bustling.
The influx of warriors from the surrounding towns alone had increased the population of Fulong Town several times over.
Consequently, the common folk of Fulong Town had also earned quite a bit of money because of this.
Although the commoners were curious about what was happening, entering Fulong Mountain? That wasn't something they could just do whenever they pleased.
Especially now, as the mayor of Fulong Town had received orders from the empire and had already led men into the depths of Fulong Mountain, intending to temporarily seal it off.
"This is truly insane."
Liu Xiaomao stood at the doorway, watching the flow of people outside, and couldn't help but speak up.
Fang Yun leaned against the doorframe of the convenience store, watching the countless warriors attempting to enter Fulong Mountain, and suddenly felt he could understand some of the amusement the Sovereign of Death felt in the original work.
Of course, he wasn't as indifferent as the Sovereign of Death; after all, the Sovereign of Death had lived for countless years, and her attitude toward life was different from that of an ordinary person.
Perhaps after countless years, he too would gradually become cold and detached, but at this stage at least, he wouldn't directly send people to their deaths.
However, watching so many people head toward the magic array he had orchestrated, it really did give him a peculiar feeling.
"Brother Yun, aren't you going to give it a try?"
Liu Xiaomao suddenly looked at Fang Yun and asked, "Aren't you a Level 2 warrior too? Aren't you curious about this?"
When Fang Yun was ten, he awakened memories of his past life and obtained the Coiling Dragon novel, shortly after which he manifested the talent and experience of Clementin, reaching the Saint-level.
A ten-year-old Saint-level was shocking no matter where they were.
Especially on Blue Star, it was something completely unimaginable.
Therefore, Fang Yun did not expose his true strength; since he lacked sufficient control over his body at ten years old, he only displayed the power of a Level 1 warrior to the outside world. Even so, he was still considered a little genius in the eyes of others.
In the ten years that followed, he successively advanced from Saint-level to Lowgod, then to Midgod, and finally, not long ago, achieved Highgod, as well as the Sovereign of Light status with a complete Law. The speed of his strength progression felt like a dream even to Fang Yun himself; the ability to manifest powers from Coiling Dragon in his mind was simply too terrifying.
Because of this, he valued his original body far more than his current Sovereign clone.
However, to others, he had merely gone from a Level 1 warrior to a Level 2 warrior.
In the impressions of many who knew him, he was considered a "faded" genius. After all, he had become a Level 1 warrior at ten, and people had always held high expectations for him; who knew he wouldn't reach Level 2 until he was twenty.
Although he was stronger than most ordinary people, compared to the talent he had displayed earlier, he was still quite lacking.
It was also because of this talent that fewer and fewer people paid attention to him, and in the eyes of those who knew him now, he was no different from an ordinary low-level warrior.
As for his immediate family, they had suddenly disappeared without a trace after he awakened his past-life memories at ten, as if they had evaporated from the face of the earth.
Even now, after becoming a Sovereign and having his divine sense envelop the entire globe, he had never discovered any clues. This could be considered one of the few puzzles he currently faced on Blue Star.
Listening to Liu Xiaomao's words, Fang Yun shook his head casually and said indifferently, "I'll wait and see. There are so many high-level warriors there; it's not my turn anyway."
In truth, as long as the powerhouses who went to the Yulan Continent returned, he would be able to gain some understanding of the situation there. And as long as someone returned, it would basically determine Beirut's attitude toward these arrivals.
Although, based on the personality of Beirut inferred from the original work, it was unlikely he would kill these arrivals; but that was just a novel, and now that he was facing a real world, who knew if there would be any changes.
Being a little cautious was only natural.
Liu Xiaomao also just mentioned it in passing, and said with some hope, "I just don't know what the situation is, to be able to produce such a massive pillar of light."
"Don't worry, even if news gets out, we'll be the first to know."
Fang Yun smiled and said.
Liu Xiaomao nodded as well.
At this moment.
The first people to enter Fulong Mountain had spent the better part of a day following the pillar of light before finding the location of the small valley.
"It's right ahead!"
One of the warriors couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, and then quickly ran toward the small valley.
This might be some great opportunity; how could they fall behind?
Once someone took the lead to accelerate, the others naturally weren't willing to lag behind, and the scene instantly became noisy.
Especially since the entrance to the small valley wasn't large, friction between the groups was inevitable, which then evolved into combat, and the scene quickly descended into chaos, to the point where even those behind couldn't take another step forward.
Even if someone wanted to sneak past the fighting, they would be forcibly pulled back by others; they didn't want to be beaten to the punch. Thus, the fighting only intensified, and the commotion naturally grew louder and louder.
Just as many people were already becoming enraged, the ground suddenly trembled.
Then again.
"Stop!"
Suddenly, a Level 5 warrior shouted loudly, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
"What are you doing?"
Immediately, someone spoke up loudly.
They were already worked up, and even though this Level 5 warrior was stronger than them, some were still dissatisfied.
Who knew that this Level 5 warrior wouldn't be angered by the man's words, but instead held up a palm, his expression becoming increasingly grave, his voice sounding somewhat uncertain, "You all, feel it carefully!"
Just as someone was about to speak again.
"Thud~"
The ground shook again, and this time, it was even more pronounced than before.
This time, everyone felt it clearly.
Following that, the ground began to tremble rhythmically, and the hearts of the group members rose into their throats involuntarily.
Hoo~
Soon, a massive sound of exhaling air echoed out.
Everyone instinctively looked toward the entrance of the small valley.
A behemoth, two or three stories tall and twenty to thirty meters long, suddenly rounded the corner from the direction of the small valley.
Its massive nostrils spewed out white steam, and a pungent, acrid odor instantly permeated the surroundings.
"Velociraptor! It's a Velociraptor!"
The person at the very front slowly tilted his head back to look at the behemoth that had suddenly appeared; the shadow of the Velociraptor completely engulfed him. He swallowed hard, and sweat poured down from his forehead.
It wasn't just him; everyone's eyes twitched. A level seven Magic Beast?!
Most of the people here were warriors from Fulong Town and were extremely familiar with Fulong Mountain; otherwise, they wouldn't have dared to barge in.
They knew very well that Fulong Mountain had never had any powerful Magic Beasts. It was only famous for having many low-level Magic Beasts, so why was there a Velociraptor here now?!
And it was clearly a mature Velociraptor!
This was impossible!
Mature Velociraptors were rare even in those notoriously dangerous regions. Each one was incredibly powerful, and any place where a Velociraptor existed was considered a forbidden zone in their hearts.
At this moment, the Velociraptor before them could easily slaughter them all.
The Velociraptor looked down at the small figure beneath it, spraying the white steam from its nostrils all over the man.
"Ahhhhh!!!"
Suffocated by the pungent, sulfurous white steam, the man seemed to have a breakdown. He suddenly screamed in terror and then ran backward without a second thought.
His flight instantly caused more people to lose their nerve, and they began to run wildly as well.
Even the few level five warriors among them were pale-faced at this moment. Seeing so many people running, they wanted to shout and curse, but in the end, they didn't say a word and joined the crowd in fleeing, their speed quickly surpassing most of the others.
However, the panicked crowd failed to notice that the Velociraptor at the valley entrance did not follow them. Its eyes, glowing with a cold, red light, merely watched their retreating backs, a look of human-like disdain appearing in its gaze.
With this level of courage and strength, they dared to come and spy on the work of their master?
They were truly courting death.
In their eyes, the thing they were guarding was a supreme treasure created by their master.
One had to know that five guys had previously vanished into thin air because of this very thing.
That eerie scene was something they would never forget.
Therefore, ordinary people simply had no qualifications to come here.
