Peacock Lord's eyes narrowed. "What did you see?" he asked the panicked man.
The man took a deep breath, trying to steady himself. "A hundred thousand monsters. I think they might be more," he began, his voice trembling. "I saw them in the south. They're moving fast, and it looks like they'll reach Divine Bird City in about two to three hours."
Peacock Lord stood up, his expression turning grave. "Are you certain of their numbers?"
The man nodded vigorously. "Yes, Your Lordship. The ground was shaking with their steps. It's an army, the likes of which we've never seen before."
"So it really came from the south, huh? They didn't want to hide the truth at all," Feng Luotian commented.
Silver Fox City lay to the south of Divine Bird City, just across the vast Boundless Plateau, a distance of a few hundred kilometers—a journey of about two to three hours for the approaching horde.
