I didn't immediately respond to Zhuang Yan's inquiry, but looked at Wu Buwen, and saw that he shook his head at me quietly.

Eventually, I shook my head and said, "It's nothing, I just made a mistake with Commander Zhuang."

"You go ahead and burn the knot." After saying that, I also began to bow my head and seriously lay out the extinction array.

Even though, I know that this formation may not have any effect at all.

Two hours later, both the extinction array between me and Wu Buwen, and the imperial corpse knot that Zhuang Yan burned with flint fire had all been completed.

Seeing this, Zhuang Yan said, "Thank you for the great help of the Prince of the East, we still have one last task, and we can leave this forest after we are done."

That's right, the name of this forest is the Dense Forest.

We also learned about this from Kudo Kazuka, after all, it is an unnamed forest on the satellite map.

"Commander Zhuang, you don't need to be polite, please say something." Kudo Kazuki smiled gently.

It's just that Zhuang Yan just wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Wu Buwen: "Prince of the East, I don't think it's early today. And it will take a week for our extinction array to be effective. So the last job, we'll do it in a week."

A week?

How long does it take for a formation to work?

I was stunned.

Zhuang Yan was even more, but after looking at Shang Wu's unasked eyes, Zhuang Yan finally nodded: "Yes, the Prince of the East is that I forgot this matter by negligence. So let's do it for today, and we'll deal with the rest in a week."

"By the way, we still need to stay in Toyo Province for the time being, so the prince shouldn't have an opinion, right?" After a pause, Zhuang Yan asked.

"Of course, no." Kudo was obviously stunned, but he still tried his best to keep a smile: "But the three of you have been delayed for so long, especially on the side of the Ma Guoshi, isn't the chief of Middle-earth concerned?"

Oh, there's a problem.

Hearing this, Wu Buwen and I exchanged glances, and then smiled and said, "The matter is important, and the chief will not have an opinion." Besides, with the Prince of the Orient here, our trip is also very safe and smooth, isn't it?"

"Of course." When Kudo said this, he could only answer with a smile.

We then refused to be delivered by Ember Kudo and drove back to our hotel by ourselves.

As soon as he returned to the house and confirmed that there were all our people around, Zhuang Yan couldn't help but speak, "Senior Wu, what the hell is going on? Didn't we discuss that we would finally use the flint fire and your Wu family's secret technique to burn the entire forest?"

"In this way, even if they still have the corpse knot they have prepared, they won't set off any waves, why did you suddenly change your words when you kicked the door?"

That's right, that's exactly what we discussed before.

But judging from the situation I just laid out, I'm afraid that Wu Buwen has changed more than just this kick.

"Why, Master Equestria, you don't have anything to say?" The cold Wu didn't ask, and set his eyes on me.

Do you really want me to say this?

After hesitating for a moment, I spoke, "Old Mr. Wu, I don't know how the extermination array you have laid is, but the few I have laid have no effect."

What?!

Hearing my words, Zhuang Yan couldn't sit still anymore, and immediately stood up from his seat: "Ding Dong, what do you mean by this? Is there something wrong with the formation? Or are you ......?"

Although Zhuang Yan did not say it explicitly, the meaning was very clear.

That is, is it because the formation is not good, or is it because the strength of the person who copied the formation is not good?

"Neither." Unexpectedly, before I could speak, Wu took over without asking, "It's not right where we are."

Yes?

In fact, as soon as Wu Bu said this, I was also a little surprised.

"Old Mr. Wu, do you mean to say that the extermination formation can't work because that forest doesn't have a yin aura at all? Isn't that ...... at all?" The latter words are so bizarre that I dare not and do not want to say them.

But I won't say it, Wu no

Asked, "Yes, what we see today should be a one-to-one replica. The place where the real knot is located is not here at all, so whatever we do in that place is in vain."

"If it's useless, why waste the flint that Zhuangda commands you again."

This is the truth, after all, this flint is not Zhuang Yan's own, but Suiming gave it once, and it will be used less once.

After figuring out the truth, Zhuang Yan didn't blame him too much, but said bluntly, "Senior Wu, where is the real forest? Can we find it in a week?"

Now Zhuang Yan naturally understood why Wu Buwen said that it would take a week for the Extinction Array to take effect.

It's nothing more than trying to delay time in disguise.

But no matter how small the Oriental country is, it is also a country, and it is impossible for us to search for it with all our labor. This will inevitably alarm the King of the East and Kudo Ichimu.

"I don't know, but this is our only chance. I think in a week, if we can't find them, we will be able to do it." What Zhuang Yan and I didn't expect even more was that Wu Buwen actually said even worse news.

After hearing the news, Zhuang Yan and I were stunned.

After a while, I reacted, and even opened my mouth to ask, "Mr. Wu, are you sure?"

If this is the case, then this matter must be told to Lin Yi quickly.

"It's my guess that there is no evidence, but I can't be wrong based on my years of combat experience. I need to notify Lin Xiaozi in trouble, and at the same time ask them to send an unmanned satellite to help me locate and track." Wu Buwen said bluntly.

"Okay, I'll contact the chief right away." Zhuang Yan also knew the seriousness of the matter at this time, and immediately began to get in touch with Kyoto.

And after Wu Buwen and I exchanged glances, I finally spoke first, "Mr. Wu, I don't know if we want to go together?"

Although on the surface, I didn't ask Wu to pretend to be unmatched.

But that doesn't mean we can't be heroes.

Dangerous moves?" Wu didn't ask whether he answered yes or no, but directly said the answer.

"That's right, that's what I thought, too." I smiled and nodded.

After Zhuang Yan passed the news to Lin Yi, he noticed the strangeness of the two of us, and couldn't help but ask, "Senior Wu, what are you talking about?" Could it be that you have some new plans?"

"Yes." Seeing that Wu didn't ask, I simply said bluntly, "Instead of searching for the entire Oriental Country, it is as time-consuming and laborious as looking for a needle in a haystack. It's better to go straight into the tiger's den."

This is the fastest and most effective way to do this.

"Into the Tiger's Den?" Zhuang Yan looked at me suspiciously and asked.

But after a moment, he suddenly reacted, "You're not going to go directly to Kudo Xiaolan, are you?"

"That's right." I smiled and nodded.

At the same time, Wu Buwen also spoke: "Although I don't know if the illness on this Oriental princess is really related to the corpse knot. But apart from Kudo and the King of the East, she should be the only one who can know the location of the real Imperial Corpse."
