Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Tsk, tsk. Hou Tielong, I really didnt expect you to have such capabilities.

You carved out such a long tunnel out of thin air underground, beneath a place where tens of thousands of people walk back and forth every day without being discovered.

Not bad!

Feng Long effortlessly captured Hou Tielong and all his cronies around him through their own internal betrayal.

Before heading toward their camp set up on the snow-capped mountain, Feng Long led his team to inspect Hou Tielongs so-called tunnel.

!!

Initially, he expected the tunnel to be only tens of meters near the city gates, just enough to bypa.s.s the guards and transport things outside the territory

After all, it would take either a continuous effort of a large number of human resources to dig out with shovels or getting medium to large machinery during the process in order to achieve an underground tunnel.

Without either one of these two means, it would be impossible to dig ten meters underground in a week or two with just dozens of people.

Feng Long was completely shocked after going through the tunnel.

Hou Tielong designed the tunnel entrance inside a well behind his stone house.

Descending the ladders against the wells wall would lead to the bottom and a b.u.t.ton that opened the tunnel entrance.

From there onward, they could easily walk through the tunnel that led to a depression outside the territory that had been long disguised by Hou Tielongs team.

Hou Tielongs stone house was extremely close to the city gate but was still a distance of a mile.

Even if it was the distance of traveling in a straight line from the stone houses current location to the city gate would still be at least 300 to 400 meters!

It was impressive that they were able to dig up such a long tunnel with only about 20 people.

Sir, youre overexaggerating. Its impossible for us to dig out such a long tunnel ourselves. This was all thanks to a card.

Although Hou Tielong smiled humbly when praised by Feng Long, he had already determined a plan in his heart.

He was afraid that this group of people would get rid of him after they found out about the tunnel and stole his supplies.

However, for some reason, he sensed that what Feng Long had said before was not a lie.

He had hope that he could survive as long as he listened to them obediently.

Oh? Does such a magical card exist? Do you still have some?

I still have two more cards but theyre not terrain modification cards. They are cards of different properties and in my storage s.p.a.ce!

Hou Tielong nodded repeatedly after noticing Feng Longs interest in the cards. He waved his tied hands in the air, indicating that he could hand them over if his hands were united.

Alright. We dont have to rush since you still have them.

Behave well and maybe my leader will spare you and allow you a chance to become a better person!

Feng Long no longer delayed returning after realizing that he had caught a big fish. He happily led the team back to the snow-capped mountain campside immediately.

However, the uphill road today was destined to be much more challenging than in the past.

The continuous heavy rain the day before and the rapid cooling at night had caused the melted snow to become slippery ice.

From the foot of the snowy mountain, countless icicles could be seen with naked eyes hanging from the mountains.

Fortunately, the soldiers that stayed behind on the mountain had already made necessary preparations. As soon as they spotted Feng Long, four hidden soldiers immediately appeared at the mountain foot and began to lead the team to take a detour.

The west side of the snowy mountain was facing directly opposite Origin Territory.

Everyone circled around the foot of the mountain and arrived at the southeastern side.

There was weak sunlight s.h.i.+ning down on this location. The soldiers manually removed the icicles so that there would be no accidents during the climbing process with the help of the climbing car.

This icy surface is hard for us to climb so itll also be challenging for others. It can be considered a natural terrain that is easy to defend but hard for enemies to attack.

Alright! Lets start climbing! There shouldnt be any accidents!

Feng Long frowned after seeing the dumbfounded looks on the captured Hou Tielong and his subordinates faces. Then, he immediately picked up the strap on the climbing car and tied it to his waist to demonstrate to them.

After his demonstration, Feng Long shook his head and laughed as he watched Hou Tielong and the others staring at the climbing car in enthusiasm.

It was impossible for them to refuse to climb the slippery snow-capped mountains because of fear after cooperating so well, despite being so aggressively caught by him.

He misunderstood their intentions.

Their captives were obviously taken aback by the advanced climbing car and had a strange reaction because a lot was going on in their mind.

What happened? Could you have possibly seen something like this before?

Feng Long asked proudly as he glanced at Hou Tielongs thoughtful gaze at the climbing car.

He never intended to get a response and just simply wanted to show off their strength.

Unexpectedly, Hou Tielong inspected the car left and right and suddenly nodded.

Sir, Ive never seen this model before, but I know Sun Bahu has a similar car that can climb snow-capped mountains. However, it seemed to be a little bigger than this?

What?

Feng Long was shocked and almost jumped up from the ground seeing that Hou Tielong looked sincere with his reply.

Origin Territorys new lord, Sun Bahus strength was a mystery to everyone.

Even the ordinary people here had no idea what he relied on to become the lord over a 30,000-people territory. No one had ever seen the weapons and means that he had used to punish the troublemakers after becoming the territory lord.

The only thing they knew was that the troublemakers would vanish overnight without a trace.

Those who were of higher authority and knew a little of the inside story also had limited intel about him.

Basically, it could only be guessed that Sun Bahu had obtained some kind of highly advanced equipment in the ruins. Therefore, he could easily get rid of the other lords that refused to obey him and forcefully took over the reign.

Everything else about him was still a mystery.

However, Hou Tielong seemed to have more information than these people and even witnessed Sun Bahus capabilities with his own eyes

Move! Hurry up!

Realizing the importance of Hou Tielongs intel, Feng Long became anxious and instantly became focused.

Previously, he thought Su Mo ordered the arrest of these people to take revenge for spying on them during the past few days and gain some information about the territory.

He now suddenly realized the intent of Su Mos order.

As the top bounty hunters of the territory, these people knew a lot more hidden secrets!
