The Investigations Begin

While Lin Mu and his beast companions were having their meal, another set of events was happening far away from them.

A large man with horns was standing upon a broken ridge. A frown was on his face, while an aura of confusion surrounded him. Behind him, several men wearing the armor of the Holy Topaz Dynasty were working.

They seemed to be doing several different tasks. Some were gathering soil, stones and other materials from the ground, while some were analyzing the change in the topography. There were scorch marks, ravines and slash marks left everywhere in the area, which these men seemed to be analyzing.

"General Niu, the initial reports were correct." One of the men wearing the armor of the Holy Topaz Dynasty approached the horned man.

"That was expected. But what more did you find? Any traces of a Demon?" General Niu Juo questioned the investigator.
