It was supposed to be a Mythic card set, but what the heck is this Warhammer 40k?

Looking at the dilapidated village before him, Lu Ya did not immediately choose to take action.

He turned around, looked at Wu Tong behind him, and asked, "Can you find out the situation in Taoyuan Village?"

Lu Ya's thinking was simple: they had no idea what kind of strange changes had occurred in Peach Blossom Village.

Entering Peach Blossom Village rashly under such circumstances would be almost as bad as being blind.

Therefore, the best approach is to have Wu Tong's "Land God" gather information about Taoyuan Village first, and then make a decision once that information is available.

Wu Tong understood Lu Ya's meaning, and without hesitation, he quickly summoned his local earth god.

As a wisp of white smoke rose, a kind-looking old man with white hair, less than a meter tall, dressed simply, and holding a cane, appeared before everyone.

Upon seeing the local earth god statue, Dai Wei, standing nearby, immediately became curious: "Is this the earth god? Why is he so short? He's completely different from what I imagined."

These slightly offensive words were too much for the local deity to bear. He jumped up and hit Dai Wei hard on the head with his cane.

This blow made Dai Wei see stars and fall to the ground.

No one expected that this seemingly kind and benevolent local deity would have such a violent temper.

This scene was witnessed by everyone, and their expressions became tense.

Su Chichi, standing nearby, couldn't help but mock him, saying, "Dai Wei, you never think before you speak. See, you got beaten up. Be more careful what you say next time."

Dai Wei shouted indignantly, "Wu Tong, you've even hit someone, aren't you going to do anything about it?"

Faced with Dai Wei's protest, Wu Tong crossed his arms and said indifferently, "Who told you to speak ill of the Earth God? He's a deity, after all. How dare you mock a deity? Aren't you just asking for a beating?"

"The local deity only gave you a cane; that's a light lesson. You should be secretly happy about it."

Hearing Wu Tong's words, Dai Wei could only realize that he was in the wrong and muttered under his breath, "My 'Devouring Mountain God' is also a deity, how come it doesn't have a temper like yours, the local earth god?"

Seeing that Dai Wei was about to continue rambling on, Lu Ya stepped forward and said, "Alright, let's stop wasting time and get down to business."

Wu Tong stopped joking with Dai Wei and, under his command, the Earth God instantly turned into a wisp of green smoke and disappeared underground.

At this moment, Gao Liang asked in a low voice, "How long will this investigation take?"

After a moment's thought, Wu Tong replied, "It depends on the situation. If everything goes smoothly, it will probably take a few minutes, but if things don't go smoothly, it could take half an hour."

After receiving Wu Tong's reply, Lu Ya and the others could only wait patiently.

Fortunately, the Earth God's investigation went smoothly. After only a few minutes, a wisp of smoke rose from the ground.

The wisps of smoke gathered together, and after they dissipated, the figure of the Earth God reappeared before everyone.

However, the local earth god in front of us was more than half the size of the previous one, only the size of a palm, looking just like a doll.

Dai Wei exclaimed in surprise, "How did it suddenly shrink so much?"

Wu Tong then explained with a smile, "This is the Earth God's skill of creating a clone. The Earth God's main body is still scouting underground, and then he transmits the information to me through the clone."

"This way we can stay informed about changes in Taoyuan Village anytime, anywhere."

Everyone then realized what was going on.

Dai Wei looked on with envy and said, "Damn, being able to scout the situation anytime, anywhere, and even transmit intelligence in real time, your card is just too convenient."

Upon hearing Dai Wei's words, Wu Tong couldn't help but reveal a hint of smugness on his face.

Then, Wu Tong looked at the Earth God's avatar on his shoulder and asked, "What's the situation now?"

The Earth God leaned close to Wu Tong's ear and whispered something in it.

After a moment, Wu Tong frowned, then looked at everyone and said, "The situation doesn't seem too optimistic."

"There are far too many strange creatures on the outskirts, at least several dozen, and some of them are of the 'pollution level' type."

Upon hearing Wu Tong's words, Su Chichi and the others frowned, clearly feeling that things were getting a bit tricky.

However, Lu Ya's eyes lit up when he heard this.

Dozens of strange creatures, doesn't that mean we've struck it rich!

Although the price of weird-type material cards has plummeted, with blue material cards now only costing around eight thousand, the sheer quantity makes up for it!

If we can resolve all these strange occurrences, we can collect at least a dozen or twenty material cards.

If this can be sold, it will definitely be a huge sum of money!

Just as Lu Ya was calculating in his mind how much money he could sell these material cards for.

A cough interrupted Lu Ya's thoughts.

Lu Ya finally snapped out of his daze. He looked up and realized everyone was staring at him. Wu Tong then spoke up, "Brother Lu, why don't you make a decision?"

Lu Ya quickly realized what was happening and coughed lightly, saying, "Actually, I think that although there are quite a few of these strange creatures, we can still try to clear them out. What do you guys think?"

Upon hearing Lu Ya's suggestion, everyone's expressions immediately turned strange.

There are quite a few, but could we try to clean them up?

Listen to this, is this something a human being should say?

At least Su Chichi and the others didn't think they had the ability to deal with so many strange creatures.

But now that Lu Ya had spoken, Wu Tong had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "Alright, shall we give it a try?"

To be honest, Wu Tong didn't have much confidence when he said those words.

At this point, Gao Liang, Dai Wei, and Su Chichi could only nod reluctantly.

Now that the proposal had been approved, Lu Ya did not hesitate and immediately headed towards Peach Blossom Village.

Watching Lu Ya's retreating figure, Su Chichi and the others couldn't help but whisper among themselves.

Su Chichi couldn't help but ask, "Can we really handle clearing out so many strange creatures with just a few of us?"

Wu Tong also sighed: "Since Brother Lu said that, maybe he's confident."

Dai Wei looked unconvinced: "Ha, he's confident? I just don't believe it."

"If he really had that ability, wouldn't the Card Master Alliance have been able to send him alone for this rescue mission? Why did they send us?"

It has to be said that Dai Wei's words made some sense, and Su Chichi nodded in agreement.

Gao Liang was the only one who listened quietly to the discussion, without saying a word.

Although Su Chichi and the others complained about Lu Ya's decision, they had no choice but to follow in his footsteps since Lu Ya was in command.
