“Don’t move for the time being. This is a special detection method. Don’t worry, 1 won’t hurt you.”

The deep voice sounded again, calming everyone down.

Only Lin Yan’s forehead was covered in sweat.

He could feel the aura of a huge turtle rising from the ground. It spread across the room like a tide and passed through the Black Tortoise Divine Armor on his body.

The Black Tortoise Divine Armor could completely hide his aura, voice, and body. Even if the aura of the huge turtle spread over, it would automatically pass through this Black Tortoise Divine Armor and not be able to discover him inside.

However… the Black Tortoise Divine Armor could not erase his weight!

He was now standing on the ground, inside the giant turtle’s body. Wherever he stepped, the pressure on the ground could not disappear. He had already been discovered by the giant turtle’s aura!

Therefore, the aura of the giant turtle lingered around him again and again. Although it kept slipping past the surface of the Black Tortoise Divine Armor, it did not retreat.

Although the giant turtle could not identify what was here, it was already certain that there was something hidden here!

Seconds ticked by.

Liu Lanqing and Ling Shuangxue looked at each other and frowned slightly. They turned around and looked at everyone as if they were facing a great enemy.

“Something’s wrong. Why did the investigation last so long…”

“Captain Song, could it be…”

The low voice was also mixed with a trace of seriousness as he slowly replied, “Wait a little longer. It’s not over yet…”

Lin Yan didn’t know how to react for a moment. From the sound of that low voice, he hadn’t discovered him yet.

However, this strange aura was probably the way the giant turtle investigated demons. It was obvious that it would not stop until it achieved its goal. If it could not detect him, it would definitely expose his existence.

Just as Lin Yan felt that he definitely couldn’t hide anymore, the Black Tortoise Divine Armor suddenly trembled slightly, emitting a strange fluctuation.

As soon as the fluctuation came into contact with the divine turtle’s aura, they intertwined intimately. The divine turtle’s aura was immediately comforted. It circled the Black Tortoise Divine Armor a few times and stopped drilling into it.

“This… Yes, it’s mentioned in the Black Tortoise Swimming the Mountains and Seas that the body of a divine turtle and the body of a Flying Snake are gathered and forged from the remnant soul of the Black Tortoise. Therefore, in essence, this Black Tortoise Divine Armor comes from the same source as the turtle…”

Lin Yan heaved a sigh of relief. In the next moment, he heard Captain Song’s low voice. “Alright, the investigation is over. There’s no threat from the demons…”

As he spoke, a hole in the wall was suddenly pushed open. A group of more than ten guards wearing close-fitting bright silver armor walked out from behind the door and entered.

Behind them were three doctors in white coats and carrying medicine boxes. As soon as they entered, they walked towards everyone and checked them one by one to see if there were any injuries.

Finally, an ordinary-looking old man in his sixties with a goatee walked out step by step. “…There are a total of 23 people. There are no demons here. Teacher Ling, Miss Liu, and everyone, welcome back.”

He didn’t look young, but his eyes were clear and bright.

Furthermore, his voice was deep and vigorous. His style of dressing was clearly different from everyone in Ding’an City. He was wearing a white coat with a small vest over it. His hands were behind his back that was slightly hunched. He looked like the kind of old rich man that could occasionally be seen in photos of the Republic of China in his previous life.

Everyone heaved a sigh of relief. Ling Shuangxue and Liu Lanqing clearly respected Captain Song very much. They did not dare to be negligent and bowed slightly with everyone.

“Teacher Ling, you guys are in a hurry to return. Did something happen?”

Ling Shuangxue nodded and said in a deep voice, “The Chaotic Fog has appeared. The entire Ding’an City has been enveloped by the Chaotic Fog. I’m afraid… not a single one of them survived.”

Captain Song’s face darkened, and a complicated expression appeared on his face. “Did something happen in Ding’an City too? These are troubled times…”

Ling Shuangxue was stunned. “Captain Song, could it be that something happened elsewhere?”

The old man sighed softly. “I don’t know what exactly happened or how many places are in trouble. After all, the patrol hasn’t ended. We’ve been sailing underwater.

“I just heard from Mr. Zhuge that this time, it’s a Chaotic Fog riot that’s rarely seen in twenty years. Not only Ding’an City, but several other lower cities were also attacked by the Chaotic Fog.

“What 1 know is Xingyun City, Jinshan City, Fengyang City, and… the prefecture capital!”

The prefecture capital!

Ling Shuangxue trembled. The Mr. Zhuge that Captain Song was talking about was the head of the Qianyuan Academy, Zhuge Wuyan. He was knowledgeable and his strength was unfathomable. He also had a powerful background and was a big shot sent here from the imperial capital.

He was definitely right when he said that the Chaotic Fog was rioting.

However, Ling Shuangxue still could not imagine that even the prefecture capital had been attacked!

“However, there’s no need to worry. In other places, the Chaotic Fog is just a small accident. It’s not like Ding’an City where everyone was wiped out. Although it’s a little painful, they have recovered now. However…”

Captain Song suddenly cast his gaze at Liu Lanqing, only to discover that Liu Lanqing’s face was pale. Her pupils had constricted into a needle, and she wasn’t looking at him at all. Instead, she was staring at the others who had just come down from the room.

Captain Song was slightly surprised. “Miss Liu already knows?”

Ling Shuangxue was extremely smart. After thinking for a moment, she immediately reacted.. Something had happened to the Demon Suppression Division again…
