Chapter 447: Arrival at the Xiyang Continent (2/2)
”Think about it, although we want to face off against a group of experts, a whole ship full of them might be more than we can handle,” Lan said. ”At least more than you guys can handle.”
Xue Wei thought about it and found that what Lan said made sense. The ships sailed at specific dates, only being limited by the number of spots that were available. Hence the ships were always full to the brim.
Xue Wei had to admit that Lan had a good point. Even if they wanted to be able to handle a full ship later, now was not the time to take such a significant risk.
”Then let us hurry to the Xiyang Continent so that we can engage in battle with someone.”
Lan nodded his head. ”I have set the coordinates to land us on a deserted area, but not too far away from another military camp. I think your first goal should be to exterminate that military camp.”
Xue Wei's lips twitched. Exterminate a military camp? Lan made it sound so easy, but the truth was that an army camp, even a small one, had thousands of soldiers. If they wanted to exterminate it, they would need to really work hard.
But at the same time, he could not help but smile. This was a good challenge. If they could, somehow, wash it in blood, then it would be quite a success.
Xue Wei smiled wryly. He was tempted by Lan's words and knew that while it was a rather lucrative suggestion that, if successful, would make them end up with lots of merit points and battle experience, there was also a high risk involved in this.
Lan knew what Xue Wei was thinking, and he did not pressure him to make a decision. The coordinations had already been plotted into the ship, so no matter whether or not he wanted to fight against that military base, they still had to arrive there first.
The rest of the time on the sea was calm and relaxed. They kept a lookout for other ships. Not for the sake of fighting the other continent's soldiers, but for the purpose of arriving safely.
The Luan birds continued to observe the surrounding area. Sometimes they would fly out for a bit of a distance before they returned to the ship.
A few days later, they finally saw land in front of them. The land was not that different from the Demon Phoenix Continent. It looked very similar, but that was only the land.
What they saw in front of them was a vast plain. The lush green grass stretched as far as the eye could see, and no living creature could be seen.
Where the plain and the sea met each other was a sandy beach; it was simply too idyllic and beautiful.
Unfortunately, as the waters got shallow, the ship could not advance further, so Xue Wei and the others flew into the air, stored the ship, and flew towards the land in front of them.
Although it was immensely beautiful, none of them were carefree, all of them were alert and observed their surroundings with vigilance in their eyes.
As they landed on the plain, they started looking around. There was no place to hide, no place to relax. But there was also no place from which others could ambush them.
