Unfazed, Aurora lifted her hand and pointed aimlessly into the distance. "They have already relocated to another site, just over there."
"Hm? Where?" Wang Xiao turned his head, his eyes searching the desolate landscape, but all he found was a stark expanse of ice and a scattering of twisted, eerie trees that seemed to shiver in the cold.
"..."
Then it dawned on him: this woman was once again weaving her intricate games!
How could he possibly see as clearly as she did in this fog-enshrouded environment?
A sigh escaped his lips as a sly, knowing smile crept across Aurora's face.
"You don't need to worry. Valen was Gabrial's trump card, kept in hiding; not even his own army knew about him. He was always held back, and this time he must have been sent here to search for clues about what caused the mountain to collapse. Afterward, his mission was to scope out your military base and launch a surprise attack from behind when no one was watching," she explained.
