C204 Hunting Team
If he could not bring the Amethyst Phoenix back, then this trip would not be worth it.
But based on Yeh Rong's description just now, the strength of these hunting teams was not any weaker than Jade Lake West Garden.
Ye Tian didn't know where to go from here.
At this time, Chu Yue suddenly said, "Didn't you just say that we should be more careful and not make the first move? Since there are so many hunting teams here, it will definitely cause a lot of commotion. When they start fighting, we'll just sit here and watch the tiger fight. No matter who gets the Amethyst Phoenix, when the time comes we'll have another mantis stalking the cicada and yellow sparrow, waiting for the opportunity to snatch it away. In my opinion, the chances of winning are quite high. Furthermore, even if our strength is not the strongest, it will definitely not be the weakest. "
Hearing Chu Yue's analysis, Ye Tian suddenly felt enlightened. He had been scared silly by Yeh Rong's words, and his mind was in a mess for a while.
He smacked his lips and looked at the beautiful face of Chu Yue beside him. Ye Tian thought to himself: It's a happy thing to have a clear-headed, meticulous internal help.
At this moment, Chu Yue spoke again, "We are still some distance away from the hunting team, so we might as well stay here. First, we should be able to observe the situation from a higher vantage point; second, we should stay far away from them, so as to avoid an explosive conflict; and third, we should try our best to conceal ourselves so as to be able to catch them off guard when we make a move in the future."
Ye Tian nodded and agreed with Chu Yue's plan.
Looking at Chu Yue, Ye Tian said, "Alright, let's do as you say. We'll be stationed here as well."
After pausing for a while, Ye Tian continued to look at those tents. He frowned and asked, "Look at these people with tents, they seem to have already known that they were going to be stationed here for a period of time. Why didn't they start attacking at the first possible moment?"
Yeh Rong spoke with slight disdain, "Sir, up until now, have you seen the Amethyst Phoenix?"
Ye Tian shook his head and said: "I was just about to ask, the Blue Crystal mine is right in front of me, why can't I see that Amethyst Phoenix."
Actually, as a level nine Divine Beast, the Amethyst Phoenix's habits are completely different from that of ordinary Devil Beast," Yeh Rong explained. The biggest difference was that the resting time of the Amethyst Phoenix was very irregular. This was mainly due to the fact that it ate a lot every day, usually reaching a dozen times. Furthermore, it did not sleep once a day, but once a few days, or once a dozen days. Under normal circumstances, it would only return to its nest when it wants to sleep. As long as it isn't sleepy, the Amethyst Phoenix will usually go out to hunt, at least a few days or at most half a month. Only until it feels tired will it return to its nest.
"The experienced hunters know that the Amethyst Phoenix sleeps when its attack and defense are at their weakest. Therefore, these people have set up their tents and are waiting for the Amethyst Phoenix to return to its nest. And, they will only take action after it has fallen asleep. " Yeh Rong continued.
Hearing Yeh Rong's explanation, Ye Tian came to a realization.
Ye Tian nodded and then thought of something else. He said with his mouth half open: "When we went out before, we didn't want to be stationed here for a while. We didn't bring any tents, so we can't sleep outside."
At this moment, Chu Yue turned around and looked at Bi Ling.
Bi Ling smiled slightly and said: "Our master always forgets to meddle in other people's affairs. I am from the Beast Clan, and there are plenty of places for me to use my martial arts in these Desolate Mountain Rocks."
Finished speaking, Bi Ling extended her hand and pointed towards a towering tree not far behind her.
The Tong Bai grew straight within a cluster of rocks. There were no longer any weeds or red flowers around it, and it was completely filled with bare gravel. Under the effect of Bi Ling's Nature Attribute Magic, the branches of the Tong Bai Tree grew green sprouts as fast as willow branches.
Countless willow branches grew in a crazy manner. After reaching a certain length, they gradually bent and folded back, automatically creating something that looked like a closed bird's nest.
Half a quarter of an hour later, sixteen bird nests had already formed on the thick branches of the Tong Bai tree.
Ye Tian widened his eyes and looked at the nearest bird's nest. He channeled his power through his feet and flew up, landing on the branch where the bird's nest was located.
The bird's nest was completely surrounded by willow branches, and it was tightly woven. It seemed like there would be no problem in protecting it from the rain, the wind, and the sun.
At the same time, the bird's nest has a man-high entrance and exit in the direction towards the root of the branch.
Ye Tian entered the bird's nest and opened his mouth again.
Not only was there a soft bed woven from willow branches in the nest, but there were also tables and chairs. Even the magic lights on the ceiling of the center ceiling had been prepared in advance.
"Ant tribe?" Two words popped into Ye Tian's head. The hab?
This single apartment was completely natural, and it looked pretty good.
Ye Tian smiled with satisfaction and came out of the bird's nest. He gave Bi Ling, who was on the ground, a thumbs up.
An hour later, the 16 people of Jade Lake Tribe found their own bird nests and entered them one by one, comfortably experiencing this single apartment.1
After a few days of traveling, fighting and tracking, even the strongest Mages and Warriors were exhausted. "For the past few days, they had not had a good night's rest or a good night's rest. They had spent many days and nights in the forest by the side of the river. What kind of warm and elegant place could have such a good rest?
At the same time, Bi Ling had set up a large bird nest at the top of the tree due to the needs of observation and impromptu meeting. As an observation post and conference room, but also as a dining room.
After a while, Ye Tian called everyone to the observation post on the top floor and had a temporary meeting. The division of labor was preliminarily set down.
Zhao Zhentian and Murong Qi were responsible for guarding the surroundings. They couldn't just stay on the tree. They had to inspect the surrounding area for a few miles to eliminate all other dangerous factors.
Nangong Feiyan, Ouyang Ruochen, Lin Qiyu, Denean, Anqi, and Sophie were responsible for alternating and observing the movements of the Blue Crystal mine. When it was their turn, they would have to keep an eye on the movements of the Devil Hunt teams and notify others immediately whenever there was a situation.
Yu Loong, Yeh Ka, and Chu Yu were responsible for hunting, collecting water, and harvesting wild fruits to provide food for everyone.
Mei Rou had excellent culinary skills and was responsible for cooking. As for Chu Yue's fire magic, it was perfect for Mei Rou. She didn't need to start another fire, which was the best way to cook food.
Here, Yeh Rong had the highest level and was also a Dark Clan user, so she was most suitable for night surveillance. Therefore, under Ye Tian's arrangement, Yeh Rong was mainly responsible for observing the hunting team beside the Blue Crystal mine at close range.
Bi Ling's task was simple. She was responsible for maintaining the operation of the bird's nest.
Ye Tian, on the other hand, was once again the manager of the restaurant, so he didn't have to worry about anything anymore.
After arranging the division of labor, Ye Tian said: "Does anyone have any other opinions? If you have no objections, then get into position as soon as possible. "
After hearing Ye Tian's words, everyone quickly dispersed and acted according to their responsibilities.
Chu Yue was clearly satisfied with Ye Tian's arrangement. Although the dignified Eldest Imperial Princess of the Empire was only assigned a job as Mei Rou's assistant, in such a short period of time, Ye Tian was able to take into account the strengths of every single one of the 16 people in Jade Lake's team and maximize their service to the overall situation. This ability was an essential quality for a high-ranking official of the Empire.
Without such qualities and ability, it would be unimaginable for them to control the high officials and the imperial government in the future.
At night, everyone had dinner together in the observation post on the top floor. After chatting and joking for a while, they all went back to their respective nests to rest.
Zhao Zhentian and Murong Qi, who were responsible for long-distance patrolling, took turns to rest and patrol. As for Nangong Feiyan and the others who were in charge of watching the Blue Crystal mine closely, they also took turns to rest and get on duty.
At this moment, Ye Tian walked out of the bird's nest and came under the tree. Coincidentally, Yeh Rong was already preparing to sneak into those tents to see what was going on. The two of them smiled at each other before walking away. Soon, they disappeared into the darkness of the night.
An hour later, Ye Tian and Yeh Rong were hiding behind a rock. They were less than a hundred meters away from the tent and could clearly see the movement of the people near it.
Ye Tian glared and counted the flags with different shapes and patterns. There were a total of thirteen flags. From this, it could be inferred that there were at least thirteen teams that wanted to capture the Amethyst Phoenix.
At this time, Yeh Rong whispered, "Among these thirteen hunting teams, only Oca Empire's Blood Demon Hunting Beast Team, Eli Empire's White Bone Bones Group, and Inca Empire's Serenity Temple possess the strength to capture a level nine Divine Beast. The rest of them are just to join in on the fun, or to join forces and form a larger consortium."
At this point, Yeh Rong paused before continuing, "However, such alliances are usually at odds with each other, even killing each other at the most crucial moments. Therefore, other than the three large guilds, the rest are nothing to be afraid of. "
Suddenly, Ye Tian noticed that the tents of the dozen teams were not too far away from each other. However, there was a tent on the west side which obviously kept quite a distance from the other teams. Ye Tian estimated it to be at least two hundred meters away.
Moreover, the number of tents in the westernmost area was more than twenty. It far surpassed the number of tents in the other teams. The other teams only had three to five tents at most.
Ye Tian pointed to the westernmost tent and said, "What team is that? It seems there are quite a few people here. "
Following Ye Tian's gaze, Yeh Rong looked towards the tent. After a long while, Yeh Rong frowned and said softly: "Strange, the team that this flag represents doesn't seem to belong to East Continent."
At that moment, Ye Tian saw the westernmost tents. Above them, fluttering in the wind, was a flag with a few stars and a moon.
