Chapter 424: Continuous Tracking
In fact, the location of the incident was not difficult to find, and the speed of the Somersault Cloud had been greatly improved due to its previous evolution. In just a few minutes, they had arrived at the place where the Tuxin believers last appeared.
While Yang Tian was carefully searching for clues according to the tracking method taught to him by Wu Chi, he also hurriedly asked Meng Jiaojiao to go to Fuli Manor to call for support.
But after this search, Yang Tian and his friends felt inexplicably heavy-hearted. There was no doubt that the ambush was carried out by the Tuxin Cult. The various corpses of magical animals that had been drained of blood that were found along the way explained everything.
They should have hurriedly cleaned up the battlefield after the pursuit. Perhaps the battle was too intense, and there were too many corpses left by the blood sacrifice magic; and these Tuxin believers didn't seem to care much about these corpses being discovered; so it was not surprising that these corpses were found by Yang Tian and his team.
"How long has it been since they gave up the pursuit?" Yang Tian looked at the Petil sisters beside him as he searched forward.
"It shouldn't take long, maybe fifteen minutes at most," Padma replied uncertainly.
"Then let's speed up. Maybe we can actually catch them." Yang Tian responded casually, and his pace of searching couldn't help but speed up.
On the other hand, after receiving the message from Yang Tian, the Five Idiots also hurriedly followed Meng Jiaojiao to the scene of the incident. They were accompanied by a spy from the Free family who was helping them deal with other matters.
They first came to the place where Yang Tian had stopped before, then sat cross-legged and started the exploration work with white jade slabs.
"No, they are actually divided into two teams?" Drunkard asked hesitantly.
"Yes, I can understand the large army withdrawing, but where is this small team of four going?" The painting maniac also looked puzzled.
"What should we do? Should we chase them separately or focus on one search route?" Tea Maniac was obviously undecided.
"Let's go after this mysterious little group. They move extremely secretly. If we separate, we will most likely lose track of them because we can't perform a combined attack formation... I suspect that this four-man team is the leader of this operation." Jiuchi explained his thoughts seriously.
"Okay, I agree." Hua Chi quickly expressed his support, and after a pause, he added, "But we also need to let Meng Jiaojiao inform the young master of the situation here. After all, that large force may disappear without a trace soon. The young master's current tracking skills are still a little immature, and it is difficult for him to make an accurate judgment on their tricks."
"Don't worry, we know what's going on." The others echoed and immediately started to move...
Although the Five Idiots had already made a prediction, when Meng Jiaojiao caught up with Yang Tian, they had already lost the trace of the main group. After such a long pursuit, they were frustrated to find that the bodies of those magical animals no longer had any signs of being cleaned up, but were randomly discarded on the next route.
"Damn it, how could they be so crazy? Abandoning the corpses of magical animals on such a large scale, aren't they afraid of causing unnecessary trouble?" Penelope shouted angrily. She totally couldn't understand their stupid behavior.
"This place is far away from the city." Yang Tian frowned and said thoughtfully: "If it were in India, they might still be worried about the various forces digging deep into the ground, so they would be more cautious. But this is Britain, they are just carrying out their mission. Once this matter is exposed, more responsibility should be borne by the Ministry of Magic, right?"
Hermione asked unwillingly: "So what should we do now?"
Yang Tian did not answer Hermione's question immediately, but opened the letter on Meng Jiaojiao's body. As he read the letter, his brows gradually relaxed and a smile appeared on his face again...
When Yang Tian and his friends, led by Meng Jiaojiao, caught up with the five idiots, they were all dumbfounded. Because they had actually arrived at the entrance of Diagon Alley. The five idiots had already entered the block with the help of the Furley family's spies, and the rest of them were quietly waiting for the young master's arrival in the Leaky Cauldron.
"Damn it, they've come to Diagon Alley after all these twists and turns." Neville cursed in a low voice, unconvinced.
"Okay, stop complaining and let's go in quickly." Yang Tian and others also put on their hoods tightly and led the remaining Free family spies to walk to the back of the bar.
As they walked, Furong lowered her voice and asked, "Didn't the Five Idiots tell you that they can see each other's faces clearly? There are so many people in Diagon Alley right now. If there are no obvious features, it will be very difficult to find them."
"Lord Jiuchi asked me to tell you all not to pay attention to the other party's face. It must be a disguise. It is impossible to attack from this aspect." One of the spies said calmly.
"Then what should we do? Are we just going to wait like this?" Furong asked anxiously.
Yang Tian gently patted Pai Furong's shoulder before saying softly, "You can continue talking."
"Master Jiuchi wants you to divide all the people who can be mobilized into groups of two, so as to ensure maximum safety. Afterwards, have everyone pay more attention to groups of two or four. When you find a group, report it to Master Jiuchi... Although it is easy to fake faces, they will always have clues to look for due to habit. And Master Wuchi is an expert in this area."
"Good idea! I understand." Yang Tian nodded, and the other friends naturally agreed...
As soon as Yang Tian and his companions met up with the remaining friends, they immediately acted according to the Five Idiots' request. In an instant, small teams of two people continued to join the crowd and spread out in all directions.
In the end, only Yang Tian and Astoria were left. The others all had some combat experience, but this little girl was powerless now, so it would be safest to keep her by his side for the time being.
In fact, at this point, Yang Tian was more or less mentally prepared. He had been tricked for a long time, and now it was already a slim hope to find the opponent. But when had Young Master Yang, who had been busy all morning, ever suffered such humiliation? It was inevitable to continue the investigation.
Unlike the other friends who were wandering around the shops in Diagon Alley, Yang Tian held Astoria's hand and quietly walked towards Knockturn Alley across the street...
