I Have a Golden Crow

Senior Sister Jiang Feng is quite a serious person, with a silent disposition and not much of a talker.

After Du Yu inquired about her strength and Demon Pet information, he stopped bothering her and got up to sit back in the row of seats opposite.

In Du Yu’s mind, if communication with Senior Sister was necessary, it was the job of Senior Brother Fu.

After all, they are of the same age and both come from service, so they should have more common topics?

Fu Jianzhou indeed adhered to the master’s orders, taking special care of the newly joined Senior Sister and actively introducing her to the squad’s overview.

”This person is so sad.” Little Fen Yang said out of nowhere.

”Who?” Du Yu was a bit stunned, ”Are you talking about Senior Sister Jiang?”

”Yes, she seems very sad.”

Du Yu glanced again at the silent Jiang Feng and responded uncertainly, ”Maybe she feels a bit sentimental about just leaving the troop?”

Nearby, Lin Shiwei handed over a cellphone.

Du Yu looked at the document on the screen, and his expression gradually became solemn.

Another Ancient Spiritual Artifact rising in the city!

And the commotion it caused was not small, sand everywhere.

The harsh sandstorm weather was totally out of place in Luzhou City, a Jiangnan Water Village.

Flying directly from Ancient Pine Tower to Wanhui Province·Luzhou City took just a short one and a half hours, but every minute and second on the plane was torture.

And the unexpected call from Senior Brother Li Jing only heightened Du Yu’s mental tension.

”Hello?” Du Yu furrowed his brows tightly, answering the call.

”This Spiritual Artifact is a bit strange and hasn’t caused civilian casualties.” Li Jing got straight to the point with one sentence.

”What?” Du Yu was very confused, ”The Spiritual Artifact rose in the bustling urban district and caused such a big commotion, no injuries?”

”Yes, but not to civilians.” Li Jing said gravely, ”Demon Tamers and Demon Pets have suffered from sandstorm invasion, with unknown creatures also appearing within the sandstorm.

But for civilians within the sandstorm area, they just experienced a larger-scale sandstorm.”

”I see.” Du Yu nodded gently, ”If the Spiritual Artifact only attacks Demon Tamers and Demon Beasts... looks like the previous owner of this artifact was likely a soldier from the Human Race Corps.”

Li Jing: ”Maybe, anyway, you guys need to be careful, since this Spiritual Artifact is specifically targeting us.”

Du Yu pursued further: ”Have we discovered what kind of Spiritual Artifact it is?”

Li Jing: ”Not yet, Director Yang instructed that we need to solve the problem as quickly as possible, it should be a swift battle.

Since the sandstorm can harm us, it can naturally harm civilians and buildings, it just hasn’t done so yet.”

Du Yu: ”Got it.”

Li Jing: ”Alright, I’ll notify you if there’s new information.”

Du Yu put down the cellphone, the people around him also cast curious glances.

”Is this Spiritual Artifact specifically targeting us Demon Tamers?” Li Mengnan spoke frankly, asking.

Du Yu said: ”I think the Spiritual Artifact is specifically targeting Demon Beasts. After all, in that era, the Human Race and Beast Race were mortal enemies.

Consequently, us Demon Tamers practicing Demon Breath were considered as fringe doctrines or even corrupt paths.”

Jiang Feng looked at Du Yu’s calm analysis, nodding silently.

Regarding Li Jing calling Du Yu instead of Fu Jianzhou, Jiang Feng was not surprised.

Because when Master Qing recruited her, it was indicated that the leader of the First Brigade is this junior brother, Du Yu.

The captain position is still vacant, temporarily taken by Yang Qingqing.

Master Qing also had some expectations for Jiang Feng, hoping this female disciple could utilize her talent and, after adjusting for a period, assume the captain role.

Jiang Feng was a brigade leader when she was in the Demon Spirit Squad.

Since she led an exceptionally capable special task force, this so-called ”brigade leader” really represented a regimental level.

With Jiang Feng’s personal qualities and capability level, taking the captain position of the Third Department·First Brigade is naturally well within her grasp.

She just needs some time to adapt, that’s all.

Jiang Feng also asked Master Qing, since Du Yu is the leader, why not let him directly serve as captain.

And Master Qing’s response was pragmatic: Du Yu already has enough responsibilities.

”This kind of Spiritual Artifact, it might be challenging to convince.” Li Mengnan looked troubled.

”Ha.” Lin Shiwei snorted coldly, ”If persuasion fails, then just smash it.”

”That’s true, we can’t allow it to keep causing trouble in the urban block.” Du Yu agreed, nodding, ”But let’s still try to persuade it.”

”Okay.” Lin Shiwei gently nodded, her domineering demeanor also toned down a lot.

The trio discussed continuously, while Jiang Feng quietly observed everyone’s words and actions.

With just a few words, Jiang Feng comprehended what kind of personalities her junior brothers and sisters had.

As Jiang Feng continued integrating into the group, the transport aircraft entered a sky covered by dark clouds.

The sound of the warrior’s report echoed inside the cabin, and through the airplane window, several people also saw the spreading yellow sand in the distant city.

”Click!”

The rear cabin door lowered slowly, a gust of wind swept open.

Lin Shiwei took the lead, getting up and heading towards the rear cabin door, as she moved, the black dress she wore surged.

In just a few steps, the black dress transformed into a dark cloak?

Jiang Feng slightly raised an eyebrow and saw further back, Li Mengnan draped in a white cloak?

Amidst the black and white, Du Yu in his wind-imprisoned short sleeves appeared rather out of place...

He looked like a little rookie mixed into the powerhouse team~

Du Yu shouted loudly: ”Let’s go, senior brother and sisters, the plane can’t get any closer.”

As he spoke, the little rookie summoned up courage, turned around and leaped off the plane.

Jiang Feng and Fu Jianzhou immediately followed, and when Jiang Feng stood amidst the wind at a thousand meters high, she couldn’t help but feel a bit dazed.

Below was a bustling city, with streets teeming with traffic.

The citizens in the city all looked up, watching the transport aircraft fly away, as well as the few people descending from the sky.

For Jiang Feng, this method of task was hard to accept.

Coming from a military background, with strict discipline, she would never use Demon Skills in ordinary society.

And having fought for years in the Bottomless, she had never executed a task under the gaze of thousands.

”Keep up, Senior Sister.” Fu Jianzhou patted Jiang Feng on the shoulder, seemingly understanding the female soldier’s inner dynamics, ”This is a task requirement.”

”Got it.” Jiang Feng nodded, heading straight for the sand-covered urban area.

”This isn’t ordinary rain; it’s mixed with Demon Breath.” Li Mengnan in her fluttering white robe flew to Du Yu’s side.

”It’s probably the Wolf Lake Celestial Wail.” The trio of Du Yu plummeted down adjacent to a building, ”Shiwei, negotiate with the soldiers for a few headsets.”

”Okay.” Lin Shiwei descended towards the soldier team, while Du Yu landed directly in front of the sandstorm.

Strangely, the boundary of the sandstorm was extremely clear, like a dome.

Where Du Yu stood, everything was normal, and just half a meter in front of him was an expanse of yellow sand.

”Have you found the Spiritual Artifact?” From behind, a voice came from Lin Shiwei inquiring.

”Report, not yet found.” The soldier stood straight, responding loudly.

”Relax.” Lin Shiwei frowned slightly, ”So, this Spiritual Artifact is inside some building.”

The reason the girl said this was because it was raining in the city.

If this Ancient Spiritual Artifact were exposed outside a building, say on the street or a rooftop, the Wolf Lake Celestial Wail would surely find its target.

”Leader, I can’t give you an exact answer.” The soldier immediately responded, ”The yellow sand blocks the rain from falling, we are not very familiar with the environment inside.

Sound-based Demon Skills also have unsatisfactory effects; our troops are still searching inside the sandstorm and haven’t found it yet.”

Du Yu extended his hand through the yellow sand, probing inside.

In an instant, fine sand layers scraped against his palm but caused no substantive harm.

However, within a few seconds, Du Yu’s Demon Breath Battle Robe began to tremble.

So, this yellow sand has a conscious offensive!

It’s not a passive attack, and it can also distinguish the creatures entering the sandstorm.

However, the attack effect of this yellow sand is quite limited.

With Du Yu’s Demon Breath Battle Robe at the Demon Taming General·Initial Stage, it can fully resist it.

”The data mentions there are unknown creatures inside the yellow sand?” Lin Shiwei continued inquiring.

The soldier replied: ”The unknown creatures are formed from yellow sand, humanoid with grim faces; this should be one of the functions of this Magical Artifact.”

Hmm... it indeed has a bit of an apocalypse sense.

Not only is it full of yellow sand, but there are also demons and evildoers inside?

In the next moment, Du Yu’s eyes turned red, and the whole world suddenly became clear.

”Du Yu.” Li Mengnan stretched her long legs, came to Du Yu’s side, and whispered, ”Should I open the Miaoxiang Bowl and collect all the sand?”

Du Yu pondered for a moment, shook his head, ”That would easily provoke them. Master Qing reminded us that the sandstorm can harm us and naturally has the ability to harm civilians and buildings.

We’d better find this Ancient Spiritual Artifact directly instead of forcing it to come out.”

Luzhou City is a big metropolis, and this is a bustling area.

Within just 1 or 2 hours, citizens couldn’t possibly evacuate completely.

Judging from the current situation, many citizens should still be locked inside their homes, waiting for the apocalypse to pass.

”The Wolf Lake Celestial Wail can’t penetrate the sandstorm.” Fu Jianzhou’s face didn’t look good; the rain-sensing Demon Skills of the Wolf Lake Dog are indeed limited.

”If we can’t beat it, let’s join it.” Du Yu suddenly blurted out.

Everyone turned their eyes and saw Du Yu swipe his hand from behind, sending it to his side.

”Meow.” A massive silver beast suddenly appeared, with an aura of ferocity and brutality instantly filling the scene.

The Desolate Silver Lynx hung its massive beast head low, its fierce beast eyes sweeping over everyone.

Ferocity is only one side of it.

The key is, the Desolate Silver Lynx is a Demon Emperor!

The surrounding warriors only felt chills down their spines, their bodies tensing up.

”Baojun.” Du Yu raised his hand.

”Meow.” The Desolate Silver Lynx looked at the people trembling in fear, satisfied as it lowered its head, nuzzling Du Yu’s palm with its nose.

”In a moment, use the Desert Sandstorm and mix your sand into the yellow sand, find out what exactly is causing the trouble.”

Desolate Silver Lynx: ”Object?”

”Yes, this sandstorm is created by an Ancient Spiritual Artifact.” Du Yu rubbed the big cat’s nose, ”Control the strength of your Desert Sandstorm, don’t let the sand have destructive attributes, to avoid injuring the life inside.”

”Meow.” The Desolate Silver Lynx seemed a bit disappointed, thinking that the sandstorm was caused by a Demon Beast.

As the ”King of Beasts in the Desert,” Baojun was eager to meet and challenge whatever was in the sandstorm to see who the real king was.

Turns out, the opponent wasn’t even on the same system as itself...

”Bring out another one.” Du Yu commanded, turning to the others, ”Senior Brother.”

”Here.” Fu Jianzhou casually handed over the invisible headphones.

Du Yu: ”You and Senior Sister take a Lynx to search the west half. Mengnan, Shiwei, and I will search the east half. Communicate immediately if there’s any discovery.”

”Understood.”

”Let’s move!”

Under the gaze of the soldiers, 5 people and 2 Lynx strode forward.

In just over ten meters, the group was completely engulfed and disappeared in the layers of yellow sand.
