pαпdα`noνɐ1`сoМ He asked his forces to keep digging at any base they'd find, seeking yellow rivers like the one here. Alfonso was afraid that this yellow river would run dry, and so he asked his men to do so.
He grew a little worried when his men didn't find such a river at any other base except here. Alfonso realised now how important and special this base was. If only for the presence of the yellow river and Scarlet Bears only here, then it was enough to speak about how unique this base was to the enemy.
Least to his knowledge that this river would run for a long time here. And soon enough, and when news about this grand war would spread all over the world, this yellow river would turn into a hot product, a place where many gears would be charged up with its aura before getting sold at high prices.
William's intel would turn to be the cornerstone of a grand war against Scarlet Bears, one that would produce many places like the one here. And the end of all this would be the extinction of such a scary breed of monsters, alongside an endless number of dark masters and other monsters as well.
Yet all this was for the near future. As for now, the old man of the Black Mamba clan was already walking towards the portal, with a grand number of dark forces from those who remained in the base.
All of the ones who got trapped here agreed to join him. Even if they were going far, far away from here, they didn't think twice before accepting the offer of the old man.
But only one person didn't follow, Moore. Moore kept recalling what William said to him before. William's words kept hammering on his mind like they were made of thunder or something.
Luckily for him it was easy to make a decision right now. Between two masters, one who looked too old and weak, too cowardly and soft boned, and another who was too young but ambitious and resourceful, Moore was easy to pick a side.
Luckily again, his old lord was too busy marching with his newly recruited dark masters at the moment. There were thousands here, and in the middle of all this, it was easy to miss a few.
Moore knew what he was doing was dangerous, but he had to risk it. He risked that whoever was up there, and were this close from breaking through here, were familiar with William. And on top of that, they respected William to the extent of deciding to keep his head on top of his shoulders.
He actually had no other choice. It was either this or running like a rat, jumping off the ship, going to a new continent and starting there from the low bottom.
So, he ran fast, ran all the way back to the middle of this entire base. The place that was once bustling with life and activity was now void of any sign of life. If there was anything, then it'd be a thick stench of deadly suffocating silence the entire base was bathed in without mercy.
On the surface, Alfonso was busy trying to make as many weapons with the yellow river aura as possible. In the middle of all this, his forces were busy as well, trying to break their path inside that base.
In the middle of all this, William and his team arrived. When they appeared from far, they attracted the attention of all thanks to William's fox spirit form.
William didn't undo his spirit form. He was moving much faster this way. Not to mention it was his way to safeguard against any unforeseen enemies ambushing them. As for his team, he lent them potions to cleanse one's body, in addition to tons of the potions he used before to replenish one's spirit power.
He was willing to share the potions, not the elixirs. And thanks to such help, his team managed to keep up running for five days before finally arriving at the base.
When they reached there, a grand scene welcomed their eyes. There were at least fifty grand hills filling the entire region, and the place was filled with lots of spirit masters.
In the middle of all this, William spotted a group at the middle of all this, working on something at the ground, where a huge and deep hole was presented there.
"The fox?!"
"Master… Master fox… It's an honour to finally meet you!"
"Thanks for coming, but we already killed all the enemies except those rats hiding in the base."
Just as William arrived there, he was welcomed like a venerable master. William looked at his team and saw how they struggled to hold their laughs.
"Lead the way to your master," William said, and his voice in the fox form was indeed scary. The next instant, all the spirit masters here parted ways, clearing a wide path for William and his team to path through.
"It really brings good memories walking like this, right?" Lang turned to Berry and laughed, while the latter could only nod. She was exhausted like everyone else, but she always showed her concern over William.
She even asked him to sleep and rest every now and then, to be met with firm rejection all the time. William didn't need any rest, as he didn't feel any exhaustion at all in that weird test world.
"You are…" Alfonso wasn't aware of the grand storm William caused back in the fort. So, seeing this grand fox coming towards him, alongside the weird reaction from the people he hired and came to fight for him, made him quite puzzled.
"I'm the master of the kid who taught you this," William didn't declare his identity to Alfonso, not in front of such a grand gathering of spirit masters at least.
William was sure that Alfonso would learn about his secret sooner or later. In fact, all the ones in the higher up circle in the fort would know, alongside many formidable masters at the regions around.
