This mission was carried out by eight brigades, each responsible for eight areas outside Xumi City.

Xumi City is surrounded by rivers and valleys. The fifth brigade to which Bai Qiyun and Nina belong is responsible for the Lidu Valley in the southeast of Xumi City.

This is an area mixed with mountains, rivers and water flows. The terrain is very undulating and the environment is very complex.

Therefore, it is also one of the eight brigades with a heavier task.

In such an environment, Bai Qiyun felt that the pressure on himself and Nina had obviously reached a new level.

But even so, he had no intention of giving up this mission.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that allows him to find out the details of the Imperial Academy.

Since the other party chose to send away the guards, it means that there must be shadows of the Order Academy behind this mission.

As long as he follows the clues, he can find their flaws.

"The registration seems to be over there."

Bai Qiyun took Nina, and they walked side by side into the crowded hall.

Seeing the endless line of troops at a glance gave Bai Qiyun a new understanding of the strength of the thirty-man regiment.

This number of people...probably tens of thousands of people, almost crowded the outside of the square.

Even now standing in the hall, he felt short of breath.

And this is excluding the number of people who are performing tasks outside.

From this point of view, the standing defense force of Xumi City is probably upwards of 15,000 people.

This number is indeed quite large, far surpassing the Knights of the West Wind, and even rivaling the Shogunate Army of Tianling who are always prepared for war.

After waiting for about an hour, it was his turn to register with Nina.

There were eight receptionists at the front desk responsible for registration. Bai Qiyun recognized the lady in front of him. She was the one who received him when he checked in on his first day. She looked a little cold.

"There are only two people in your team?"

Looking at the names registered in front of her, the receptionist couldn't help but look at them.

"Well, our captain took people out on a mission before, but they haven't come back yet. What, is there a requirement for the number of people in the team for this mission?"

"No, that's not the case, but please don't force it."

The receptionist is only a receptionist and cannot change the decision made above. She can only register the two names in the register.

After that, the headquarters will weigh and transmit the mission information to each team through the void terminal based on the registered personnel information.

Bai Qiyun left the headquarters with Nina who said nothing.

After getting out of the crowded crowd, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.

It was so crowded inside that even breathing was difficult.

"So from now on we will act as two people?"

Nina looked at the mission information in the terminal and felt that something was wrong.

The area was really huge, almost ten times larger than the area the two of them patrolled before.

You must know that the wilderness itself is highly dangerous. The area that needs to be taken care of is still so large now, and casualties are almost certain to occur by then.

Nina did not want this to happen, and she even felt that the decision made by the headquarters was quite stupid.

"Then what can I do? You can't be a deserter."

Bai Qiyun put his hands behind his head, not caring about the danger of the mission.

Not to mention the elemental power he can control, even if he does not rely on elemental power and only relies on combat experience, some groups of mushroom beasts cannot stop him at all.

For him, exploring the secrets behind the Order from this mission is the most important thing.

Bai Qiyun opened the message sent from the terminal and carefully looked at the area marked on the map.

According to the combat schedule, from now until two days later, all their guards need to sweep through the forest.

This is actually a very unreasonable thing, and anyone with a discerning eye will know it at a glance.

First, it is impossible for the Order to be unaware of such a large-scale mushroom riot, and part of the guards' duties in villages outside the city is to clear out mushroom beasts, so it is unlikely that such a large-scale mushroom riot would occur.

Secondly, why did the Holy Orders mobilize all the guards out of the city? Even if there is a crisis outside the city, for the residents in the city, shouldn't there be a greater need for personnel to maintain law and order?

The above two doubts made Bai Qiyun very suspicious of the purpose of this mission.

Even if there is a secretariat behind the scenes, they should not abandon the responsibilities of the thirty-man regiment.

Unless...the guards themselves are an obstacle to the Order's operations.

Thinking of this, Bai Qiyun's brows furrowed even deeper.

No matter from which angle you look at it, the Jiaolingyuan's move seems to be to divert the tiger away from the mountain, and to deliberately drive away the guards in the city.

Could it be that they were doing something in the city?

After realizing this, Bai Qiyun suddenly didn't want to leave Xumi City just like that.

The sky was getting closer to evening. If he left the city now, he would not be able to come back tonight. But when faced with the call for a group of thirty people, he was not very good at refusing.

For a moment, Bai Qiyun fell into a tangle.

"Why, are you scared now?"

"No, it's just some speculation."

Bai Qiyun and Nina got on the same carriage and rushed out of the city, heading straight to the Lidu Valley where the mission was located.

As the name suggests, Rito Valley is a continuous valley dotted with waterfalls and rivers falling from the sky.

Because it was relatively close to the city, it didn't take long for the two of them to stand above Lidu Valley.

Looking at the lush abyss below her, Nina felt dazzled.

"Where are we going down there?"

Her words were full of resistance.

But the reality will not change in any way because of her.

"Of course, you must be scared, right?"

Before the soles of his feet could feel warm, Bai Qiyun returned all the words he just said to Nina.

"How can it be?!"

Nina was like a cat with explosive hair, suddenly jumping up from the ground.

But when her eyes swept across the valley in front of her, she quickly calmed down.

She had no choice but to calm down with such a majestic and magnificent scenery before her eyes.

Because she is afraid of heights.

However, Xumi City is connected to the cable car and other means of transportation that do not go down from the Todu Valley, so if you want to go down, you must follow the vines next to it and fall down little by little.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Otherwise, the holder of the Eye of God will have to send the person away.

But unfortunately, Bai Qiyun has not revealed the fact that he can control elemental power to the guards yet.

Before the people from the fifth brigade arrived, he immediately chose a thicker rattan and began to slide down from a high altitude.

Seeing this, Nina suddenly became anxious.

"Hey, wait for me!"

The girl quickly climbed down along the same vine.

But when she looked into the depths of the valley, a fear from her heart made her unable to help but close her eyes.

Little Nina, please don’t look at it.

Nina kept hypnotizing herself deep in her heart, while silently increasing the strength on her hands to avoid falling from high altitude.

Although she is very afraid of heights and her movements are extremely slow.

But in the eyes of ordinary people, Nina's current behavior is also quite shocking.

After all, not everyone can fall directly from a height of thousands of meters without protection.

But it's more likely that Nina was so scared that she forgot to put on protective gear.

It was not until half an hour after Bai Qiyun had begun to explore the environment in the depths of Lidu Valley that Nina belatedly fell to the ground.

Feeling the soles of her feet stepping on solid ground, Nina dared to open half of her eyes slightly.

With drooped eyelids, she confirmed the fact that she had landed and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Oh, the ink stains finally came down after a long time. If you were afraid of heights, just tell me earlier and I would hold you down."

Bai Qiyun started to make sarcastic remarks again.

But Ninai rarely refuted this time.

Because she has to go up again after the mission is completed, and if she refutes it now, she will be laughed at even more miserably.
