After hearing what Niu Shan said, the commander-in-chief looked at Ye Li beside him with some surprise.
After looking at Ye Li for a while, the general said: "Since you, Niu Shan, trust this young man very much, then I also believe in your judgment.
Let's go, let's get out of this valley first, lest the monsters behind us come up again, and we won't be able to fight in the valley at all."
Niu Shan nodded when he heard this, and hurriedly led everyone towards the direction of the Jiaolong Pool, and soon reached the end of the valley.
When the main force saw the huge dam built beside the Jiaolong Pool at the end of the valley, they all showed shock on their faces, and a hint of relief flashed in the eyes of the commander-in-chief.
“It seems that it is really thanks to you that these monsters have become so cunning that they know how to attack us by storing heavy water.
If their plan succeeds, we in the valley will have no ability to defend against the flood."
The general commander looked at the dam and said with great emotion.
Seeing the existence of the dam with his own eyes made him feel somewhat like he had survived a disaster.
At this time, hundreds of talisman masters were standing by the Jiaolong Pool. Ordinary people were resting, while the team leaders, squadron leaders, brigade leaders, general commanders, Ye Li and others were discussing the future battle plan by the pool.
Now that they have learned the truth about the monsters becoming stronger, they have more or less targeted targets in battle, and the difficulty of the battle will be reduced a lot.
"Captain, I think we should go rescue people first, go back a distance along the way, and gather the scattered teams together, which can also appropriately weaken the combat power of the monsters.
After that, we will mobilize everyone to attack the location of the Soul Control Bug Mother Body, what do you think?"
Niu Shan suggested.
The general thought for a moment and said, "I agree with your plan, Niu Shan, but do you know the possible location of the Soul Control Bug Mother?"
Niu Shan was slightly stunned, then shook his head and said, "I don't quite know where the soul-controlling insects might be, but I believe we should be able to find them after a search."
Hearing Niu Shan's words, Ye Li, who had been observing the map, suddenly said, "Senior, Brother Niu, I think I have found the area where the Soul Control Bug Mother may exist, but I don't know where this area is."
Hearing what Ye Li suddenly interrupted, the general commander and Niu Shan were both startled, and then looked at Ye Li.
"Brother Ye, have you found the location of the Soul Controlling Bug's mother body?"
Niu Shan asked in surprise.
Ye Li nodded, placed the map in front of everyone, and gestured on it, saying, "Look, these are the places where we encountered monster attacks along the way, and then they extend all the way to this Jiaolong Pond.
We will mark these places along the way, and then connect them with lines for you to see..."
As Ye Li spoke, he used the pen in his Qiankun bag to lightly draw a line on the map. Then an arc appeared on the map.
Ye Li pointed at the arc and said, "The range of the Soul Controlling Bug's mother controlling its offspring is about three miles, so we will use this arc as a basis and push it back about two or three miles in the direction of Qilin Ridge in the north to draw an area, and this area should be where the Soul Controlling Bug's mother may exist.
The reason why they chose to extend a certain distance into Qilin Ridge is because the possibility of their hiding place being inside Qilin Ridge is much greater than outside Qilin Ridge. After all, the soul-controlling insects in Qilin Ridge are naturally cautious and will always choose to stay in safer places.
You see, the area I circled seems to be in a valley, but I don’t know where it is.”
When Ye Li circled a large area with a pen, the captains and the general commander around him showed expressions of sudden enlightenment.
Niu Shan said directly: "I see, I understand, they may indeed be hiding in this area.
This valley is an underground area, and the underground passages are like a maze. If they choose this place as a hiding place, it is really the best strategic location. "
Hearing Niu Shan's words, the general commander and others nodded in agreement.
Finally, the general commander looked at Ye Li with admiration and said, "Young people are indeed formidable. This young man Ye is very quick-witted and immediately found the area where the Soul Control Bug mother body might be."
Upon hearing this, Ye Li immediately said modestly: "Thank you for the compliment, Senior. I just happened to know the habits of these soul-controlling insects and understand their abilities and personalities, so I was able to guess where they might be.
If seniors and Brother Niu can determine based on the actual situation that the soul-controlling insect mother body is indeed in this area, then after rescuing other people, we can go to this area first to take a look and confirm it.
The Soul Controlling Bug Mother Body takes its own safety very seriously. If a large number of high-level monsters can be found in that valley area, it can prove that they are indeed hiding in this valley."
Everyone agreed with what Ye Li said.
Then, the general leader said: "Since we all agree with Brother Ye's opinion, let's do it according to this plan.
Niu Shan, you first use the messenger eagle to inform the city of the situation here, and then we will return along the original route to rescue and search for other survivors.
After that, we immediately rushed to the valley crypt area where the soul-controlling insect mothers might be. "
As his order was given, the captains around him immediately said "Yes, sir" respectfully and began to mobilize their men separately.
Niu Shan quickly wrote down the situation here in a letter, and then asked someone to summon a small eagle-like monster from the sky.
This monster is a spirit eagle domesticated by the guard army and used to deliver messages.
The spirit eagle itself does not have much attack capability, it is just a demon beast in the spirit gathering period, but its advantage is that it can fly very fast and is willing to be tamed by humans, so it is very practical to use it as a communication tool.
After passing the news to the Imperial City, the general commander asked the captains to reorganize the team, and then everyone entered the valley again together and began to return along the same route they came.
The next battle will be relatively easier for everyone.
Although the monsters had been prepared for the guards' direct attacks on the soul-controlling insects, the soul-controlling insects' control range over the monsters was very limited, and it was impossible for them to avoid a distant position during the battle.
As long as the large guard army can find out the location of the monsters in advance, they can cover Ye Li and go forward to eliminate some of the soul-controlling insects first, greatly weakening the combat capability of the monster army.
