“My Lord, how did you know that they would change their marching route?”

On the other side, after feeling more at ease, Serena slightly puckered her lips and asked with doubt.

Next to her, Stella quickly leaned over, her large eyes full of curiosity as she gazed at Leo Ray.

“It’s actually quite simple…” Leo Ray said with a grin, and soon after, he briefly described his thoughts to the three of them.

“So that’s how it is; my Lord truly has an exquisite and keen insight!”

After hearing Leo Ray’s explanation, Taylor pondered and nodded with admiration.

Then, after thinking for a moment, he asked, “My Lord, what should we do next?”

“Of course, we can’t just let this go.”

With a furrowed brow, Leo Ray looked around at the cheerful Tier 1 Subordinates and lowered his voice, “Based on our analysis earlier, we can confirm that the target of this army’s late-night visit is the Mysterious Barrier Area.”

And according to Merchant Kenneth’s information about the disappearing army, we can speculate that there must be something strange about the barrier.”

So, whether it’s this sudden army or the mysterious barrier area, both could potentially become sharp blades aiming for our vital points.”

At this point, Leo Ray couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.

Well, well, just on the second day of his crossing, he was already dealing with barriers and armies.

It seemed that seeking peaceful growth in this forest would not be an easy task.

At this moment, Leo Ray suddenly felt an immense malice from this otherworld, making him shudder.

However, in an instant, a hint of barely noticeable coldness and sharpness appeared in his eyes.

After all, no matter who or what the opposing forces were, he would never allow them to trample over him.

“My Lord, what do you mean by that?” Taylor promptly asked.

Signaling him not to worry, Leo Ray pulled himself together and addressed the burly man, “Taylor, how long will it take for that army to reach the mysterious barrier area?”

“My Lord, based on their current marching speed, it should be about half an hour,” Taylor replied after some thought.

“How long would it take for us to reach the barrier?” Leo Ray continued to ask, with his right hand on his chin and his left hand supporting his right elbow.

“My Lord, if we fully conceal our presence and avoid being detected by the enemy, I would need about 6 or 7 minutes.” Taylor replied without hesitation.

“I see.” In contemplation, Leo Ray turned to the twin sisters, Serena and Stella, and asked, “And what about you two?”

After hearing Leo Ray’s question, Serena and Stella exchanged glances and laughed. Then, with full confidence on her pretty face, Serena answered, “Reporting to my Lord, unlike the strength-based Senior Taylor,

Stella and I are assassins who specialize in agility and stealth. Therefore, our speed is almost on par with Senior Taylor.”

“Very good.”

Nodding with satisfaction and already having a plan in his mind, Leo Ray said with a faint smile, “In that case, let’s head to the barrier area first and wait for them there, to see what this army is up to.”

“My Lord, you are of great importance; we can handle the task of investigating the enemy!” Hearing this, Serena and Stella quickly chimed in unison.

“Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing,” Leo Ray said, waving his hand slightly before getting up and stretching his limbs.

Without a doubt, the highest rank among the opponents is most likely Tier 3 at most.

On their side, Taylor is a formidable Tier 5, and with his assistance in hiding, Leo Ray wouldn’t have to worry about being detected even though he was just a Tier 1.

Furthermore, they also had the Tier 3 powerhouses Serena and Stella and the Tier 5 Ornament [Blessing of the Southern Cross] as trump cards.

As long as they get there early and find the best observation point, it would be as harmless as picking up soap while wearing metal underwear.

Most importantly, both this sudden army and the mysterious barrier area are their most troublesome and lethal challenges at the moment.

Having the opportunity to observe both at the same location is an excellent chance not to be missed.

After all, if they just rely on Taylor and the others to report back after investigating, there might be some omissions.

With his mind made up, Leo Ray first called the four team captains, who were unaware of the situation, and informed them that he wanted to go out for some fresh air in the night.

He then left the Territory’s Safety Zone with Taylor, Serena, and Stella, who were already waiting at the camp gate, fully equipped.

“I wonder what’s so special about that mysterious barrier area that it would attract an army of thousands to come here late at night?”

Thinking of this, Leo Ray looked at Taylor and shook off his wandering thoughts, realizing that there was still one final issue to be addressed.

That was how to get the other party to take him quickly to the destination several kilometers away.

Five minutes later.

Under the deep blue night sky, two cold moons, one large and one small, hung high, emitting a cold radiance.

Below the night sky, in the dense forest, three figures, one large and two small, were swiftly moving forward without making a sound.

As for why there were only three figures, the answer is simple.

It was because Leo Ray, the Lord, was currently in the embrace of Taylor, being carried in a princess hold!

At this moment, as Leo Ray felt the chilly air brushing against his face, his expression was full of resignation, and the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily.

He had never imagined that he would end up in the embrace of a burly man like this in his lifetime!

“I must say, this is quite a unique experience, unique enough for me to regret coming out,” Leo Ray muttered.

Several minutes later, in the midst of Leo Ray’s bewildered thoughts, their group of four arrived several kilometers away at the mysterious barrier area.

Even Leo Ray could now clearly feel a strange and indescribable power filling the air in this place.

Next, commanding Taylor to land on top of a giant tree with an excellent view, the finally standing Leo Ray narrowed his eyes, silently waiting for the enemy’s arrival.
