Death… And Me Chapter 1061 - Ambush

Chapter 1061 - Ambush

"I'm being tracked?" Langara was surprised to hear that. "How? I can't feel anything in my body."

"Since you can move souls to your descendants, you probably understand your soul very well, right?" Rean asked before continuing. "However, there's a small flaw that you probably didn't notice. I'm using my Light Element to highlight it. Check your soul right now."

Langara closed her eyes and focused on her soul. Normally, it would be hard to do that due to the cultivation level, but she was an exception to this rule. As Langara checked her soul, she was able to see a small stream of light coming from it, highlighted by Rean. "Wh-what is that?"

Rean pondered over it for a bit before telling her, "Seems like they got you, huh? I can't tell the exact generation you got this through Soul Succession, but it seems like this was a trap left in the body of one of your descendants. It's using your own Soul Power to create a beacon. However, the amount used is so low that even you wouldn't be able to notice it."

"Those ungrateful b.a.s.t.a.r.ds! Is that how they treat their matriarch?!" Now that Langara knew where to look, she was able to check that stream of light by herself. Without a doubt, that was her own Soul Power, and it wasn't her who was using it at all.

Roan was obviously more concerned about something else. "Since they can track her down, the enemies shouldn't be too far. If all the remaining 17 hunters appear and they're all in the Saint Realm, we'll be at a huge disadvantage."

Roan pondered over it a little more before asking Rean, "Rean, how precise would their tracking ability be?"

Rean looked at the beacon for a bit more before saying, "Whatever it is, it uses very little Soul Power so that Langara doesn't notice. I don't know how the tracking device of the enemies works, but if it was something made by me, it would probably have a range of around 300 to 400 kilometers. The enemies would have to look for us until they get into this range, which they probably are already."

Roan nodded after hearing that. "We flew four days straight. Considering no one appeared during this time shows that their speed isn't much different than ours. In any case, we should think that they also have their own Demon Birds for traveling. In that case, I believe we have at most one or two hours before our location is found."

Rean also added, "There's also the fact that they are concerned about the previous three hunters' deaths. They wouldn't charge straight at us if they have the least bit of intelligence."

Fatax immediately looked at Rascal and told them, "Then let's fly! We can't stay here for much longer."

Rean shook his head in response, telling Fatax, "No can do. Rascal worked a lot already. Let him rest."

"But..." Fatax couldn't understand why the twins looked so calm.

Langara couldn't help but ask, "Do you have a way to get rid of this tracker in my soul?"

Rean nodded. "Sure. I can target the source of the Soul Power consumption and use Roan's Dark Element to destroy it."

Roan shook his head. "You can do that later. Now, let's prepare for the visits."

Langara and Fatax didn't understand what Roan meant by that. "Shouldn't we get rid of the tracking thing first?"

"It's fine, it's fine! If we destroy the tracker right now, those friends won't come to us anymore." Rean told them with a smile. "Since we know they're coming, we can make more than enough preparations. Besides, the last guy gave us five thousand Rank One Divine Stones! Perhaps the others also have a few more. How can we let such huge coffers escape so easily?" Right after those words, a lot of materials appeared beside Rean.

Roan glanced at Rean before saying, "I'm not good at formations, but I can help with some simple tasks."

"Sure," Rean was going to ask Roan anyway. "Fatax and Langara, do what I ask you to do."

"You're going to build a formation? Now? Don't you know how long it would take to make something good enough to deal with the hunters?" Langara didn't feel any confidence in that kind of plan. They simply didn't have enough time.

"You underestimate the Royal Family way too much." Rean then pa.s.sed a few materials to Roan, Langara, and Fatax. "Just do as I say. Now, Langara, head to the northwest side, 110 meters. Fatax, you go to the south, 113 meters. Roan..."

Roan immediately left, leaving Fatax and Langara behind.

"What are you two waiting for? Move, move! We don't have enough time." Rean obviously complained, making those two give up and follow their orders. Without Rean to control Rascal, they wouldn't be able to fly anyway, so they might as well bet on Rean and Roan.

Rean had a reason to be confident, the Circuitry Formation Runes! Besides, he got a lot of Divine Stones from Sutil's group, which would be more than enough to power up the formation. Not to mention that Rean really wanted to try a few ideas that he learned during the a.s.sembly.

Roan was right about his prediction. The group of hunters coming after them was around an hour away. They could arrive much faster, but they were indeed concerned about the death of the first three.

That one hour quickly pa.s.sed before one of them took out something that looked like a crystal compa.s.s before pouring their Soul Power inside. A moment later, the compa.s.s showed a specific direction and vibrated at a certain frequency.

After that, he looked at the group behind him and used Divine Sense to pa.s.s his orders. 'Matriarch Langara is just ahead. We will divide into five groups of four and three and surround her and her group. However, wait for my signal before attacking as we don't know who we're up against.'

The other hunters nodded and quickly separated. Once everyone was in position, their leader used a technique to conceal his presence as he got close. Eventually, he was able to see Rean's group. 'Hmm? No Saint Realm cultivators?' He carefully looked around, but he couldn't see anyone else other than Rean's group and the sleeping Golden Rascol. It didn't seem like they noticed his group either. 'We can't wait much longer..' With that, he released the signal, which made all the hunters move at once.
