The captain thought of only one possibility—the enemy would definitely launch an ambush when the squad was retreating.

With the formidable strength of the Canglan People and their extremely treacherous nature, they would absolutely do it.

As for the ambush location.

Undoubtedly, it must be the entrance to the Ancient Remains Space.

Because the only channel for the squad to leave the Ancient Remains Space is the entrance, it is the inevitable path.

While the captain's mind was swirling with thoughts, he calmly said, "Then let's go!"

He didn't mind leading his fellow tribesmen to their doom.

By handing his fellow tribesmen to the Canglan People, he could figure out their methods, increasing his chances of survival.

The captain pulled his arms back, constantly moving his tail, swiftly swimming like a fish toward the direction of the halo.

He glanced back and saw his companions following suit.

Yet they all maintained a cautious distance.

Compared to before, this distance had noticeably increased.

This small detail revealed that since Tuo Tower's death, the cracks within the team not only failed to mend but expanded further.

The reason was simple.

When Tuo Tower died, none of the fellow tribesmen wished to check his condition, let alone collect his body.

Conversely, each team member realized in their hearts—they could be abandoned at any moment.

The captain withdrew his gaze, sighing inwardly: "The terrifying Canglan People!"

The enemy broke one of his arms, completely igniting the squad's internal conflicts.

After killing Tuo Tower, the squad was already on the path of disbandment.

A short while later.

The captain stopped swimming.

He glanced forward, his eyes capturing a faint, illusory halo, motionlessly suspended in the icy water.

The captain softly said, "The Ancient Remains Gate is right there."

The so-called "Ancient Remains Gate" is the entrance and exit of the Ancient Remains Space.

Sart squinted his eyes slightly and asked, intentionally or not: "Captain, what should we do now?"

The captain felt a wave of annoyance: "At a time like this? Still scheming?"

He was very clear that Sart's question was not well-intentioned.

If he answered he didn't know, the little authority he had just built would vanish instantly.

If he provided a plan, he would have to lead by example, or else who would be willing to follow him?

And this was the consequence of the team's collapse.

The captain pondered for a moment, slowly saying: "The enemies are watching us like a hawk, we better observe for a while."

It was as if he hadn't said anything at all.

Sart's vertical pupils flickered, nodding: "Then let's wait."

The two Middle Rank Warriors exchanged a glance, both wearing expressions of helplessness.

In fact, they wanted to leave the Ancient Remains Space as soon as possible, but their strength was lower, leaving them no choice but to passively accept the arrangements of the two High Rank Warriors.

Time ticked by, second by second.

Five minutes passed.

The Ancient Remains Gate showed no change.

Middle Rank Warrior Valiron suddenly said nervously: "I think I sense the enemy is spying on me."

Sart gently nodded: "I sensed it too."

The captain sighed inwardly.

If even Valiron could sense the spying, it showed how brazen the Canglan People's prying was.

He knew very well that the enemy wanted to add psychological pressure to the entire squad through this method.

Sart suddenly said angrily: "The Mountain King Race are the masters of the Cold Abyss, only the Civilized World fears the Mountain King Race.

"Why are we forced to this extent by this enemy of the Canglan Civilization?"

This guy emphasized: "This is a shame for the Mountain King Race!"

The captain sneered inwardly.

If you feel it's a shame, why don't you charge ahead?

He knew right away that Sart was putting on an act, provoking the other tribesmen to do something.

Sure enough.

Valiron couldn't take it anymore, shouting: "I'll go check out the Ancient Remains Gate, maybe it can draw the Canglan People out."

The guy vigorously swung his spike tail, shooting forward like an arrow.

Due to his swift swimming, he inevitably stirred up many bubbles, leaving a distinct trail in his wake.

The captain watched his companion's back indifferently, his eyes like he was looking at a corpse.

He chanted inwardly: "Fool!"

From the captain's understanding, that extremely cunning Canglan man must have been ready for a long time.

Valiron's fate would be the same as Tuo Tower's, voluntarily walking into the trap set by the enemy, and eventually being effortlessly killed by the Canglan People.

Soon.

Valiron became a faint shadow.

The captain suddenly had a sense of absurdity: "I seem to have more confidence in the enemy than I do in myself."

On the other side.

Above a block of floating ice.

Yang Fan leisurely sat in a beach chair, holding a bottle of Summer Cola in his right hand, observing the underwater Mountain King Race squad from a distance.

A water surface beside the floating ice mysteriously turned into a mirror, displaying the situation of the Mountain King Race.

He had now completely suppressed the Mountain King Race squad, so he showed his true form without any scruples.

Honestly speaking.

Merely using the standard of an Early Stage Warrior to intimidate a Mountain King Race squad until they were scared witless, and each Mountain King Race member had a rank higher than him, this kind of thing would definitely shock many to their core if revealed.

"Gulp!"

Yang Fan took a sip of cola, muttering: "You all think Valiron is a fool.

"In fact, you're gravely mistaken; Valiron isn't as reckless as you imagine, he's just pretending to fall for Sart's provocation."
