Chapter 705 Another Golden Half-Ring

Upon hearing Baron's words, Yu Xia turned to him and asked, "Have you never been here before?"

Although this area is several zones away from Baron's team, they should have made plans before they came and know who is stationed here.

Baron said, "All I know is that this is an area under the Federation's jurisdiction, and their teams change frequently."

Yu Xia paused, "Change it often?"

Baron nodded. "They said it was to reduce manpower costs."

After saying that, he showed a hint of doubt, "These teams are all under the command of General Harrison of the Federation. Most of his sentinels are S-rank or above, which is very strong. There is no need to change teams so frequently."

Most factions don't really disagree with this, and many of them use similar replacement tactics to avoid the sentries accumulating too much contamination.

But Baron still sensed something was off.

Because the Dragons were always at the forefront, almost every time they captured a point, Harrison and Ryan's teams would follow up. This was fine; the Dragons advanced, and they defended the points.

However, the people guarding the point would change each time, and they would basically be replaced by another group after less than a day.

However, the next batch of guards was not similar to the previous batch.

“It’s probably because Admiral Harrison has already sided with His Highness Ryan,” Baron added.

Yu Xia considered Baron's words for a moment and said, "You mean, every time Harrison changes teams, he swaps with Ryan?"

Baron nodded. "Third Prince Ryan only joined the military in the last two years. Before that, he had almost no subordinates of his own. Most of the sentries were handpicked by him, and they were mostly new faces. Moreover, he changed them frequently, so we are relatively unfamiliar with his troops."

Yu Xia and Flock exchanged a glance when they heard Harrison and Ryan frequently switching teams.

Why are they doing this?
Yu Xia thought of Harrison's sentinels, who were basically just his shells, and felt a chill run down her spine.

Could it be that Harrison couldn't control so many sentries, so he sent them back after they finished scouting the area?

Flock couldn't figure it out at first and lowered his head in deep thought.

Just then, a rocket streaked across the sky and flew towards them.

Baron reacted quickly, controlling his mental form to dodge the rocket.

The rocket exploded in mid-air with a loud bang.

After that rocket, more rockets shot towards the dragons flying in the air like meteors.

Yu Xia and his group were surrounded by dragon-affiliated sentries. Baron calmly directed the team with hand gestures, sending a small squad of sentries to lead the way into the safe zone of the area and identify themselves.

The rockets kept launching, and Yu Xia heard a deafening roar in her ears. The smoke also significantly obstructed her vision.

Baron and his team skillfully dodged the rockets, flying low and weaving through the ruins.

Several beams of dark blue energy pierced through the ruins and struck some of the dragon-type sentinels.

Baron asked, "Why aren't there any guards or patrols around them?"

Floch said, "Young man, haven't you realized this is deliberately targeting us?"

Each cleared area will be equipped with various defensive and offensive devices, and detection equipment is also essential; they should be detected as soon as they enter.

Instead of sending an advance team to investigate, the other side launched an indiscriminate attack with weapons, clearly indicating that they knew who it was and were doing this on purpose.

Baron said in a deep voice, "Who exactly wants our Dragon Clan to die?"

He wasn't unaware of it, but he hadn't fully believed that at this point, there were still people who wanted to deal with their Dragon Clan.

It's true that their dragon race is not popular with outsiders, but it's one thing to cause trouble in small ways, but they actually want to use the polluted area to harm them here?
They've been at the forefront all along. Baron isn't an arrogant dragon, but in this situation, without their dragon fire to clear the way, how long can the other Sentinels hold out?
At that moment, a beam of blue light pierced through the ruins and struck Baron's spiritual dragon form.

Despite their protective gear, Yu Xia and the others were still thrown to the ground by the shockwave.

Baron reacted quickly and caught her, landing safely with her in his arms.

"Boom!" A dense burst of blue light blasted apart a sturdy, tall building in front of Yu Xia and the others. Baron held Yu Xia tightly, dodging falling rocks and leaping among the ruins.

Floch followed behind them, his golden half-ring deflecting the falling rocks around them. His gaze pierced through the ruins and rubble, and a murderous intent rose within him.

"Protect her!" Floch whispered in Baron's ear, a pair of round, white mouse ears popping out from his head.

The next moment, he became even more agile and swift, almost turning into a blur and disappearing from Yu Xia's sight.

Seeing this, Yu Xia worried that Floch might get injured fighting alone, so she said to Baron, "Quickly follow Floch!"

Baron immediately chased after Flock.

Floch quickly approached the safe zone, and he could see a ring of defensive fortifications in the distance.

He bared his sharpened teeth, swung his hand forward, and the golden half-ring destroyed all the weapons and cut a hole in the fortifications.

Just as Floch was about to move forward, a crisp "ding!" rang out, and his golden half-ring was knocked away by another beam of golden light.

Floch's mind sensed the attack, and it trembled violently, like a boulder thrown into a calm lake.

He clutched his head in pain, reached out to retrieve the golden half-ring, and looked up at the same time.

At this moment, a golden semi-circle similar to his spiritual body hovered above the breach in the defensive fortifications.

His pupils contracted sharply, and he was about to rush out.

"Floch!"

Hearing Yu Xia's voice behind him, Floch suppressed his emotions and clenched his fist to look at the other half of the golden ring.

It hung there, radiating a faint golden light and powerful spiritual energy, as if mocking him.

"Floch, how are you?"

Upon seeing Floch, Yu Xia jumped down from Baron's arms, climbed over the collapsed wall, and went to his side.

"I'm fine." Floch pulled her behind him and peered over the collapsed wall again. The golden half-ring was gone.

At that moment, a squad of sentries emerged from behind the fortifications and quickly approached them.

Baron noticed the combat uniforms of the sentries and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes. He turned to Yu Xia and the others and said, "They are sentries from the Lion Clan."

Yu Xia straightened up a bit and looked over; it was indeed the Lion Family team.

“Those are the Second Prince’s troops,” Baron added.

Yu Xia was taken aback. The Second Prince? "Darren?"

Baron nodded.

Floch scoffed, "It's this idiot who's here."

Before long, the sentry arrived in front of them.

"Which team are you from? State your name." The team leader coldly swept his gaze across the ruins before him and addressed the people hidden behind them.

A dragon-affiliated sentry angrily retorted, "Didn't you see we belong to the Dragon Clan?"

Before he could finish speaking, the sentry drew his gun and fired at the building next to him, sending stones flying.

"I'll ask you to state your names. Who's leading this team?"

"it's me."

Baron emerged from the ruins.

Instantly, the sentries pointed their guns at him.
