Death… And Me Chapter 1338 - Wait To See

Chapter 1338 - Wait To See

Hurio quickly calmed himself down before using his Divine Energy to spread a web of lightning all around him. It spread three meters around him, covering all his sides. In any case, the lightning was very weak to the point that anyone could defend against it with the most basic Divine Energy barrier. After that, Hurio called Lilia close, making her stand inside that lightning array that used his body as the center.

The use of that array was very simple. Since the hundreds of small bolts of lightning were connected to Hurio, he would notice the moment anything touched them. That would give him enough time to react and protect himself or Lilia if another one of those icicles appeared. "Alright, I'm ready to go."

Rean nodded after seeing what Hurio did. "That's a good way of doing it. By the way, there's no need for you to show me where to go because we're going to follow those guys from the Dragon Tail Brotherhood."

Hurio and Lilia were taken aback to hear that. "Follow them? But they already disappeared."

Rean didn't explain. Instead, he just jumped on Kentucky before calling everyone abord. "Let's go, Kentucky." At the same time, Rean activated his Light and Divine Sense bending skill. The Dragon Tail Brotherhood group didn't have anyone at the Transition Realm or above, so Rean was confident in keeping their presence hidden.

Nevertheless, Hurio couldn't help but ask, "Is it okay to try to fly in this weather, Kentucky? What if one of those icicles. .h.i.t your body."

Kentucky didn't seem to care, though. "It's fine, it's fine. I'll just keep my feathers in blade mode. Did you forget I have an amazing defense? If the icicles can penetrate my armor, then I'll think about something else."

*Bang!*

*Shatter!*

"Ouch, that hurts." Sure enough, it didn't take long for Kentucky's big body to receive one of those flying icicles. "Well, at least now I know they can't pierce through my armor. In any case, Rean, if I get injured somehow, just heal me."

Rean obviously didn't mind it. "Sure. Now, fly to the west. The Dragon Tail Brotherhood group will leave my senses if we take too long." Rean was using a very simple method to detect those people, their life force. There was no life in the middle of this snowstorm, so it was quite easy for Rean to make out the life force in those guys even though they were quite ahead. Of course, it wasn't as good as Divine Sense, but it was obvious that Divine Sense was useless here.

Hurio and Lilia found it strange, though. It's not Rean's detection ability that was strange to them. Hurio already said that the twins weren't normal, neither were they for the matter. What confused them was why the brotherhood was moving west. From what they knew about the first floor, there should be no exit on that side. Of course, there was one more thing they wanted to know. "By the way, why exactly are we following them? Lilia and I can guide us through this snowstorm. There's no need to tail the brotherhood."

Roan shook his head in response, saying, "We're not following them because we want to leave. We're following them because we think they won't leave. Well, at least not that soon."

Lilia and Hurio looked at each other with confused eyes. Seeing that, Roan also gave them the same explanation as he gave Rean. "That's about it. However, make sure you keep track of our whereabouts. If it turns out they're going to miss the one-month mark, we need to leave far earlier."

Hurio and Lilia didn't know if Roan was right or not about the marks. Then again, perhaps this was what the top ten powers had been after ever since. They definitely didn't want to lose on whatever the brotherhood members were looking for since they couldn't help Mira's group anymore.

Sure enough, Rean's ability to feel life force far outstripped the Dragon Tail Brotherhood group to detect others. Not to mention that it looked like Rean's group didn't even exist in this snowstorm. 

Every now and then, Kentucky was forced to bear the hit of the icicles. If those icicles. .h.i.t some of the more vulnerable spots, he would get injured. However, with Rean there, the injury was healed very quickly. Not to mention that Kentucky's healing abilities were very good as well. 

As for ancient beasts, they felt as if they didn't exist anymore. In normal times, there were supposed to be a lot of them concentrated in the levels. But after they fled the Light Element wave, Rean's group didn't find a single one except for the ancient beasts outside the barrier. Also, those ancient beasts could control s.p.a.ce to move, so they should have come back by now. Since they didn't, it reinforced Roan's theory that another wave was coming at some point.

Last but not least, the ancient formations proved useless for their group. Not because of Sister Orb this time, though. The Dragon Tail Brotherhood seemed to have their own way to detect those ancient formations ahead of time and dodged them.

Those disciples from the brotherhood continued to stroll in the snowstorm for many days, and it didn't look like they had a destination in mind. They would change directions every now and then, and Rean's group even pa.s.sed by the same location quite a few times. That made Roan even more certain that those disciples from the brotherhood were biding for time. 

However, on the 21st day after entering the first level, something different happened. Roan felt like all the Yin Energy in the area began to congregate into a single point, and that point was exactly where the brotherhood disciples had stopped. 'What's happening there?'

He then looked at Rean, who understood the message. 'Kentucky, get closer to them. Be careful of the wind so that they won't notice your presence.'

'Alright.'

Hurio and Lilia also shut up and concentrated on what was happening ahead.

The visibility was very poor. However, Kentucky's eyes were very good, so when he got close enough, he began to explain to the twins what he was seeing. 'There seems to be a lake in the middle of the snow. I'm not sure if I'm seeing it right, but there seems to be a shadow moving inside.'

The twins then looked at Hurio and Lilia, who shook their heads. Obviously, they didn't know what it was.. All they could do was wait and see what the disciples from the brotherhood would do.
