Trading system, I exchanged vegetables for golden pills.

The fact that the woman could stand on the giant snake so easily proves that she must also be a cultivator.

Otherwise, how could an ordinary person stand up? They would be thrown off in no time.

Moreover, this snake should be her battle pet or mount.

They seem very obedient.

Therefore, although it was the giant snake that made the move, the massacre of the village was probably orchestrated by that woman.

But what is her intention?

If we're talking about revenge, this village is full of ordinary people, what grudge could they possibly have against her?

Why would someone commit the massacre of a village if they had no grudge against them?

This is what Ye Chen can't understand.

Surely the other party isn't some ruthless evil cultivator who kills without blinking an eye? Is it just for the sake of slaughtering a village?

Ye Chen thought for a moment but still couldn't come up with any ideas. However, he still needed to report this matter to his superiors.

After all, this is no longer just a simple case of animal attack.

Ye Chen shouted, "Everyone, come and gather here!"

With his loud voice, everyone heard him and quickly assembled towards him, carrying their Type 95 rifles.

Zhao Tianlong's group was the first to arrive. Zhao Tianlong, holding a gun, looked around.

"Captain, what's wrong? What happened?"

Ye Chen waved his hand: "It's nothing, don't be too nervous. I just discovered some clues and know some things."

"Hey, I thought you'd run into trouble. What clues? Did you study criminal investigation before? How come I didn't notice anything?" Zhao Tianlong said, puzzled.

"Let's talk when the others arrive!" Ye Chen shook his head as he watched the two groups of people rushing towards them.

Before long, everyone had arrived.

Ye Chen looked around and slowly spoke: "Everyone, this is not a simple case of animal attack; cultivators are involved!"

Ye Chen unleashed his ultimate move right from the start, leaving everyone looking at each other in bewilderment.

"Captain, what, what exactly is going on?" Wan Shengjie asked in confusion.

Everyone present had this question.

When they arrived, Black Wolf said it was the work of a giant snake, but how did it become that cultivators were involved?

It's not that they don't believe Ye Chen, it's just that things took a turn for the better than expected.

"It's true that the giant snake attacked the village, but it was controlled by someone. I haven't figured out its purpose yet. Just to be on the safe side, let's not split up and avoid any mishaps. I'll call the instructor first."

As he spoke, Ye Chen took out his satellite phone and dialed Black Wolf directly.

This satellite phone was given to him by Black Wolf before he set off; it's the only phone that works in the mountains.

The call connected quickly, and Black Wolf's voice came through: "What's wrong? Is someone injured?"

"Reporting to the Commander-in-Chief, everyone is safe and sound, but there is something I feel I need to report to you!" Ye Chen said after a moment's thought.

"Oh? What is it?" Black Wolf's voice became more serious, and he unconsciously straightened up a bit.

Ye Chen then explained the situation in the village and asked for their opinions on how to handle it.

It needs to be clarified whether to continue the mission or change to another mission.

Different levels of authority have different information, so their decisions will certainly differ.

Therefore, real-time feedback is very important, as it relates to whether leaders can make correct decisions.

As expected, Black Wolf's voice turned serious after hearing Ye Chen's report: "Are you sure someone was involved?"

"I'm sure, it's a woman!" Ye Chen gave a definite answer.

Upon hearing this, Black Wolf fell into deep thought.

After a moment's thought, Black Wolf said, "You all stay where you are at the village entrance. This mission is temporarily canceled. I'll send a helicopter to pick you up; it will take about an hour."

"Yes!" Ye Chen nodded.

The two ended the call.

"The instructor said the mission is temporarily canceled. Meet at the village entrance; a helicopter will pick us up in an hour!"

Ye Chen looked at everyone and spoke directly.

The cancellation of the mission did not bring any relief to the group.

Even if we don't assess you today, we'll assess you in a different way in the future.

These past two days have essentially been pure wilderness survival training.

The temporary cancellation of the mission also confirmed that this was unusual, and seeing the attacked village added to the somber mood of the group.

"Let's go!" Ye Chen called out and took the lead towards the village entrance.

Just then, Ye Chen suddenly turned his head to look in a certain direction behind him.

"Brother Ye, what's wrong?" Ah Long glanced at Ye Chen, but he didn't see anything unusual.

The others were also puzzled and looked in the direction Ye Chen was looking.

However, they couldn't figure it out either.

They knew Ye Chen wouldn't speak without reason; once Ye Chen got serious, it meant something was definitely going to happen.

Just like the night before last!

Ye Chen frowned, and after a long pause, he slowly spoke: "Stay vigilant, we're being watched!"

"Ah, we've been targeted again. Could it be another attempt to possess me? But it's daytime!" Wan Shengjie couldn't help but shrink back.

Now he only felt a chill down his back.

"The people who attacked the village have returned; our real target is us!"

Ye Chen said solemnly.

Everyone's hearts skipped a beat, and they looked towards the distant Type 95 rifles, becoming alert!

In that instant, Ye Chen understood the whole situation. The other party wasn't attacking the village aimlessly; they were trying to lure them here!

Perhaps her real target is this group of new Beidou engineers!

This group of new Beidou talents includes not only the son of the person in charge of Yaoguang, but also Zhou Changsheng, the grandson of the Zhou family, and Ye Chen, a top-tier genius with a perfect score of 100.

If the other party is an adversary of BeiDou, then there is indeed a motive to take action.

Eliminating these newcomers is tantamount to cutting off the supply of fresh blood to BeiDou, which will have a significant impact on BeiDou.

Moreover, how many top-tier geniuses can achieve a perfect score of 100? At the eighth level of Qi Refining, he might be able to reach Foundation Establishment soon.

Perhaps there really are people who don't want to see him grow up.

Ye Chen felt that his guess was pretty much right.

About a minute later, the group saw the trees in the distance swaying.

A few seconds later, a large snake emerged from the forest!

With everyone's eyesight, it was clear that it was a large snake.

"Holy crap, it's a huge snake!" someone exclaimed.

"This snake is several times larger than a mountain peak! I've never seen such a big snake before!"

"Look, there's a person standing on that giant snake's head!"

"Could they really be here to see us? Oh my god!"

"They came prepared; they're clearly not to be trifled with!"

Everyone was talking at once, quite nervous and excited, and of course, a little thrilled.

Ye Chen gestured for everyone to stand behind me. Once within range, fire freely. Don't worry about anything else, just kill them first and interrogate them later!

Ye Chen wouldn't talk to the other party about martial ethics.

This guy's intentions were clearly directed at them; even from a distance, Ye Chen could feel the palpable killing intent in his eyes.

Ye Chen didn't know her strength before she even made a move.

However, her skill level must be quite high, at least at the Great Perfection of Qi Refining, otherwise why would she be so bold as to undertake this mission?

Ye Chen's records state he is at the eighth level of Qi Refining. If he really came prepared, his level would definitely be higher than that.

Ye Chen sneered inwardly. Regardless of whether he could win or not, he would let her taste the power of the Type 95 first.
