As Gofen mentioned, the Death Unit had received orders to help secure the new area acquired during the last battle a few days later. Naturally, they had to move to that place. However, when they finally arrived there, Kentucky’s perception immediately found something.

Rean noticed the change in Kentucky’s behavior as the Minokawa looked in a particular direction.

“This… what’s wrong, Kentucky? Did you find anything?”

*Chick! Chick! Chick!*

Kentucky jumped, excited while using his wings to point in the direction he was looking in.

Roan looked at it and remembered something.

“Isn’t this the same reaction when the chicken found that…”

However, Roan stopped talking there. After all, Kentucky’s abilities were also a secret. Instead, Roan used their Soul Connection to convene his words.

‘Isn’t that the same reaction Kentucky had when he found the Luminun Ore deposit?’

‘Ah! That’s right!’

Rean didn’t have much Luminun Ore remaining. After all, it had already been over a year since they found the Luminun Ore deposit. At that time, Rean got 10 kilograms of that metal. As a Middle Heaven-Quality Ore, Kentucky could eat and digest around 100 grams every five days, which gave Rean a supply that would last five hundred days. By now, he only had 400 or so grams left in the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm.

Of course, he still had Elder Reliance’s stock that could last him another month or so. Reliance himself said that he didn’t mind parting with it. Yet, that would soon be over as well. Kentucky could live perfectly fine without the Heaven Level ores to eat. In exchange, the development of his feathers and scales would be almost halted since Kentucky would only be able to use Spiritual Energy on them.

*Chick!*

Kentucky then tried to run away in the ore deposit’s direction, but Rean immediately stopped him.

‘Stop right there!’

Kentucky then looked behind, puzzled.

*Chick?*

‘You can’t go right now. Stay here. Understood?’

Kentucky couldn’t help but look with a sad expression. However, Rean was adamant.

After confirming that Kentucky wouldn’t run out by himself, the twins finally started to talk.

‘Considering Kentucky’s search range, the deposit might very well be hundreds of kilometers away.’

Roan nodded.

‘Kentucky only noticed that deposit’s presence once we arrived at this newly conquered area. That means we are at the very border of his perception. Also, don’t forget that he is a lot stronger now than when we found him. His perception range has probably increased a lot since then. I wouldn’t be surprised if this deposit was a thousand kilometers away.’

Rean agreed with him.

‘That is well within the Cassen’s army territory. It already took this long to take this area that was only 50km into their territory, let alone conquer all that 1000.’

‘We need to talk with Droman and Mia.’

Other than Reliance, Droman and Mia were the only ones who knew about Kentucky’s real identity. Obviously, they also knew about its ability to detect Heaven Level metals.

Roan then stayed in the area while Rean dashed back to where they came. Rean was responsible for everything related to equipment, so Roan did not intervene and let him do as he wished. 

The Jialin forces were already building another Communication Formation in the new area. Still, it would take a day or two to pass all the cables and connect everything. Without any other choice, Rean had to go back to where the closest one was located. Well, with his Enhancement Ability and Core Formation Realm cultivation, that wasn’t anything hard to do.

Finally, Rean reached the Communication Formation.

“Halt! Who goes there?”

The guards protecting the formation had noticed Rean immediately.

“It’s me.”

Rean finally got close enough for them to see who it was.

“Oh, Rean. What’s up? You need to pass any message?”

Rean nodded.

“Yes. Can I use our communication formation for a second?”

The guards nodded and let Rean pass after he showed his Dalamu Sect badge. Not everyone could use Jialin’s Communication Formations. Only the leaders of each Unit could do so, and they needed to have a good reason for it. However, Rean was Droman’s Disciple, the Formation Master responsible for all communication formations, so he had a free pass.

Rean didn’t say what he found in Cassen’s territory. He simply requested that his Master came to see him as soon as possible. Their communication system was still too primitive. There were no such things as cryptograph or the like. At most, they had a few codes with hidden meanings. It was better to talk with Droman face to face.

Droman didn’t take too long to appear after that. Since he was responsible for all communication formations, he obviously stayed nearby.

“What is it? It is not the time for your Formation lessons yet.”

Rean shook his head before using a Spiritual Sense message to explain everything.

‘Kentucky seems to have found another Ore Deposit with Heaven level ores. This time, he was a lot more excited as well. I believe that whatever he detected is of very high quality, or there is a huge amount.’

Droman was surprised to hear that.

‘That’s great! Give me a second.’

Droman took a Thoughts Transmission Talisman and immediately contacted Mia. Sure enough, Mia also arrived after some time. The good things about Thoughts Transmission Talismans were that they were safe, so Droman already told her everything when he sent her the message.

‘Rean, are you sure about that? Is there really another Heaven Level deposit here?’

Rean nodded.

‘I’m sure. However, I don’t know where it is since it’s within Cassen’s territory. Also, Kentucky is at the very limit of his detection range, so the deposit is definitely far inside the enemy’s ranks.’

Mia nodded, not minding that part.

‘It’s fine. I just need the general direction so that we can focus our attacks on that side. However, you must understand that the spoils will be the property of the entire alliance. We will need to share it with the others.’

Rean already expected that. After all, if they tried to take everything for themselves and were found after, that might start an internal conflict instead. That’s the last thing Jialin and Dalamu needed at the moment.

‘How are you going to tell others about it?’

Mia smiled before saying.

‘Don’t worry, that’s a simple matter.’
