"Cloud Mist Mountain Range is dangerous. Please be careful."
Zhou Huaian glanced at Seven Sects everyone and said solemnly.
"The imperial court will send three thousand elite county troops, personally commanded by the guarding governor General Yue, to join Seven Sects in the Cloud Mist Mountain Range clearing campaign."
He turned sideways and looked at the guarding governor Yue Zhan beside him.
Yue Zhan took a step forward and bowed his hands slightly towards Seven Sects.
Just standing there, he had a convincing calm demeanor.
"The garrison governor will personally lead the army..."
Fang Han's eyes fell on Yue Zhan, and his heart moved slightly.
Being personally commanded by the guarding governor shows that Prefecture Governor's Mansion attaches great importance to this matter. Obviously, Cloud Mist Mountain Range is the top priority in this encirclement and suppression of monsters.
After the tasks were assigned, various forces left Prefecture Governor's Mansion one after another.
Azure Profound Sect Everyone returned to Azure Profound Branch Courtyard, tidied up for a while, and then got ready to set off.
Chen Wanjun summoned eight people from Fang Han and more than ten Deacon who were on this trip to the main hall, and distributed Cloud Mist Mountain Range's topographic map.
"For this operation, each of you will lead a team, and each team will be assigned several disciples to disperse and eliminate them."
"According to the information provided by the Prefecture Governor's Mansion, the monsters in the outer area of the Cloud Mist Mountain Range are weak. Most of them are Lower Third Grade level monsters. But the deeper you go, the stronger the monsters become."
Chen Wanjun looked solemn.
"Especially in the depths of the Cloud Mist Mountain Range, there are rumors that there are monsters at the top Upper Third Grade level. If you encounter one, you must not act rashly and send a signal for help immediately."
"Yes."
Everyone responded in unison.
"You are the team leader. You must not only kill the monsters, but also ensure the safety of the disciples."
Chen Wanjun nodded slightly, glanced at Fang Han and more than 20 people, and said in a low voice.
He paused, with a hint of warning in his tone.
"In addition, in the Cloud Mist Mountain Range, the dangers come not only from monsters, but also from the grudges between various factions. When walking in it, you need to be vigilant at all times."
Everyone looked at each other with shivers in their hearts.
They all understand what this means.
There are many disputes between Seven Sects. In this deep mountain and old forest, if someone has any thoughts, it is really difficult to prevent them.
"Okay, let's get ready. We'll set off in half an hour."
Chen Wanjun waved his hand.
Everyone exited the main hall and went to prepare themselves.
Fang Han returned to his quiet private courtyard, put Cloudsplitter Sword behind him, took a few bottles of healing and restorative Internal Qi Danyao and put them away close to his body, and finally put his package behind his back with one hand.
Just as he was about to go out, he heard footsteps outside the courtyard door.
"Senior Brother Fang."
A cold voice sounded.
Fang Han looked up and saw Yun Qianyue and Li Feng standing at the entrance of the courtyard.
Yun Qianyue is dressed in light cyan disciple uniform, still covered with purple gauze, and has a cool temperament.
Li Feng holds a long knife in his arms and has a stern face.
"You came just in time."
Fang Han smiled slightly and stepped forward to greet him.
"You two were assigned to my team, have you received the news?"
"Message has been received."
Li Feng said.
"That's good."
Fang Han nodded.
The fact that the two of them were assigned to the team he commanded was probably not a coincidence, but a deliberate arrangement.
After all, Yun Qianyue and Li Feng are familiar with him, so their cooperation will naturally be more tacit.
"Let's go, let's meet in the square first."
The three of them left the independent courtyard and walked towards the square of Azure Profound Branch Courtyard.
On the square, more than a hundred figures have arrived one after another.
The disciples belonging to their respective teams met with their respective team leaders. Among the disciples belonging to the Fang Han team, in addition to Yun Qianyue and Li Feng, there were three others.
A burly young man with thick eyebrows, big eyes, dark skin, carrying a heavy sword with a ghost head on his back, looks honest and honest, his name is Shi Hu.
There is a thin young man with a delicate face and extremely sharp eyes. There is a long and slender sword hanging on his waist, named Lin Xiao.
There is also a young woman with a good-looking face, a neat ponytail, a smart outfit, and two swords hanging from her waist. Her name is Liu Qing.
When the three of them saw Fang Han, they quickly bowed and saluted.
"Senior Brother Fang!"
Fang Han nodded slightly and glanced at the other three people in the team except Yun Qianyue and Li Feng, remembering their appearance and breath in his heart.
Judging from breath perception.
Shi Hu's cultivation level is about Seventh-rank mid stage, and his aura is thick and thick. He is obviously a warrior who is good at strength.
Lin Xiao Seventh Rank In the early stage, his aura is sharp, so he should be specialized in kendo.
Liu Qing Similarly, in the early stage of Seventh Rank, with two swords on his body, he should be quite agile.
Coupled with the two late Seventh Ranks, Yun Qianyue and Li Feng, the strength of his team should be quite good among these teams.
"Let's go."
The voice of Chen Wanjun sounded.
Everyone boarded the carriage that had been prepared, Green-Hoof Deer stepped forward, and pulled the carriage out of Azure Profound Branch Courtyard smoothly.
In Prefecture City, he met up with people from the other six sects and headed towards the north gate of Prefecture City.
After exiting the north gate, they gathered together three thousand county troops and marched towards the Cloud Mist Mountain Range.
Three days later, Cloud Mist Mountain Range peripheral.
Seven Sects and the county army spread out, preparing to go deep into the Cloud Mist Mountain Range from different directions.
Azure Profound Sect's carriage stopped at the foot of a mountain, and everyone got off the car one after another. In front of them was a vast forest.
The ancient trees are towering into the sky, the vines are hanging down, the forest is filled with mist, and the sight can only reach a few dozen feet.
There was a moist smell of rotten leaves in the air, mixed with a faint fishy smell.
"This is the Cloud Mist Mountain Range peripheral."
Chen Wanjun glanced at everyone and said in a deep voice.
"Next, the clearing operation will begin. Each team will prepare and enter separately after half an hour."
The voice of Chen Wanjun sounded.
Fang Han looked at the five people in his team.
The expressions of the five of them were all calm. Although they had never participated in such an operation, they had taken on many missions over the years and were no strangers to combat.
"Are you all ready?"
Fang Han asked.
"Senior Brother Fang, I have been ready for a long time!"
Shi Hu smiled honestly and patted the heavy ghost-headed sword behind his back.
Others nodded one after another.
"That's good."
Fang Han nodded slightly.
Half an hour passed quickly.
A total of more than twenty teams, under the watchful eyes of Chen Wanjun and five Elder, disappeared into the vast mountains and forests one after another.
Fang Han The six people spread out in a fan shape, about tens of feet apart from each other, so that they could look after each other without being too close to affect the search efficiency.
In the mountains and forests, there are towering ancient trees and luxuriant branches.
The ground was covered with thick rotten leaves, which were soft and silent when stepped on.
The air is filled with the moist smell of rotten leaves, mixed with the fragrance of various vegetation and the fishy smell of wild animals.
"Buzz--"
Fang Han activates <Spirit Sniffing Art>, and uses Greater Accomplishment's <Spirit Sniffing Art> to sense everything around it.
Under Greater Accomplishment<Spirit Sniffing Art>, all living creatures in the surrounding area and dense forest can't hide.
A bobcat lay dormant in a tree hole, breathing slowly and steadily.
Several wild boars were grazing on grass roots in the bushes hundreds of feet away, snorting loudly.
Farther away, there is the aura of Reeves's Muntjac, light and alert.
Cloud Mist Mountain Range has been an inaccessible place since ancient times, with high mountains and dense forests and many wild animals.
The beasts discovered so far are still in the category of "beasts" and have not become "demon".
A true monster's body has undergone transformation, and its strength is not comparable to that of ordinary beasts.
No matter how ferocious ordinary beasts are, they are still just beasts. They can threaten ordinary people, but they cannot threaten warriors.
And monsters, even the weakest monsters, are enough to give warriors a headache.
As the six Fang Han people went deeper, they began to encounter wild beasts.
A huge wild boar rushed out of the bushes, its tusks were about a foot long, and with a whirring sound, it crashed directly into Li Feng, one of the six people.
Li Feng didn't even raise his eyelids, but turned slightly sideways, and the wild boar rushed over, wiping the corner of his clothes.
The next moment, the sword flashed.
"Pfft--"
The huge body of the wild boar fell to the ground with a crash, and there was a deep knife mark on its neck. Blood gushes out and soaked the dead leaves on the ground.
Li Feng sheathed the knife without stopping, as if he just swatted away a disturbing mosquito or fly.
Fang Han glanced at the wild boar.
Their mission is to eliminate monsters, not to hunt beasts. As long as these beasts don't attack them, they don't bother to care about them.
Li Feng took action only because the wild boar rushed towards Li Feng out of curiosity.
The six people continued to move forward, encountering several more waves of wild beasts along the way.
A giant spotted leopard nearly ten feet long jumped down from the tree, its claws carrying a fishy wind directly to the back of Liu Qing's neck.
Liu Qing didn't even look back, he just slashed with his backhand, and the giant leopard was chopped into two pieces in mid-air, with blood spraying out and internal organs flowing all over the floor.
A group of gray wolves lingered far behind the team, seemingly looking for opportunities.
But when Fang Han glanced back at them casually, the gray wolves scattered like frightened rabbits and never dared to approach again.
The intuition of beasts is sometimes sharper than that of humans.
They can feel that everyone in this team is not someone they can mess with.
The sun is getting higher and the fog in the forest has dispersed slightly.
Fang Han Six people have penetrated Cloud Mist Mountain Range for more than ten miles.
"Not the same as the scent of a beast!"
Among the fragrance of vegetation and the fishy tide of earth, Fang Han sensed several scents that were completely different from those of ordinary beasts.
The breath was cold, but also faintly hot, contradictory and strange.
It's the scent of a monster.
And there's more than one.
There is a breath about three hundred feet away on the left side.
Further to the right, there are two breaths.
Directly ahead, there are three breaths.
The aura is not very strong, just like that of an ordinary monster.
"Be careful, there are monsters ahead."
Fang Han opened his mouth and reminded the five people Yun Qianyue.
"Finally I met a monster."
As soon as these words came out, the spirits of Yun Qianyue and the five people were all lifted up.
After half a day in the mountains, all I have encountered before are wild beasts, and finally I will encounter a monster.
Fang Han takes the lead.
After passing through a dense bush, a relatively open woodland appeared ahead.
On Forest Clearing, three huge monsters were surrounding each other, eating the corpse of Reeves's Muntjac.
They were three wolf-shaped monsters, several times larger than ordinary wild wolves, with shoulders as high as half a man, with gray-black fur and a pair of eyes glowing with a faint green light.
The most eye-catching thing is their forehead, where there is a single horn that no wolf has ever seen. It is about a foot long, dark red in color, and faintly glowing.
