Zhang Ting recognized what those bottles and jars on the tables really were, not some ordinary potions but liquid explosives that could only be seen in records. These materials wouldn't react in a stable environment, but the slightest change in the external environment, such as a bit of sunlight, would trigger them to spontaneously react and then boil and explode. It must have been the entry of the special forces that had caused a change in the environment.

"Retreat, quickly." Zhang Ting shouted loudly, and the special forces immediately rushed towards the exit.

Almost there, almost there, Zhang Ting was the last to run. Just as her back foot stepped out of the doorway, a loud explosion erupted from inside the factory. The flames shooting up into the sky blew the metal roof of the factory away, and the massive shockwave flung Zhang Ting into the air like a kite, violently tossing her to the ground.

"An explosion has occurred inside the factory."

"What?" Song Tian and Jin Li walked out of the command vehicle, the previously abandoned warehouse was now engulfed in flames.

"There are injured officers, hurry, rescue them." Some special forces saw Zhang Ting injured and rushed over immediately.

"Ting, are you all right?" The special officer named "Chen" turned Zhang Ting, who was lying on the ground, over. Zhang Ting's wheat-colored pretty face had turned black from the blast.

"Cough cough, I'm fine." With everyone shaking her, Zhang Ting coughed twice, as if she was choked, and everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief seeing that she had woken up.

"Sss." Zhang Ting moved her body and suddenly felt a sharp pain.

"Ting, don't move, you've got a fracture. The medics are on their way."

"I'm okay." Luckily the special forces' equipment was quite comprehensive, which significantly mitigated the impact of the explosion, otherwise Zhang Ting might have disintegrated.

"Carry away the injured."

"Extinguish the fire."

Jin Li looked at the sea of ​​fire in front of him, his face sinking even more, the liquid bombs proved one thing: the video was indeed real, Boss Xing's base had been here, otherwise it would not have been possible for anyone to develop liquid explosives, but now, this clue was also lost.

"Damn, those people must have already retreated." Shen Wu looked frustrated, Boss Xing and the base's relocation had resulted in a fruitless endeavor on their part and caused losses.

"Let it go, let's continue the investigation." Tianjing sighed softly.

South America, Mili Forest.

"So, you're saying, two thousand years ago, a Ye Shikai promised to marry." Mona tenderly recounted the events to Ye Shikai.

Two thousand years ago, humanity had entered an era of expansion. At that time, although the elf race was scattered all over the world, they were in full conflict with humans. On one hand, the elves were proud and scornful of humans, never taking human words seriously. On the other hand, human cultivators were emerging like bamboo shoots after the rain, talents were appearing, and their strength was growing stronger. Coupled with territorial expansion, conflict with the elves was inevitable. Under these two reasons, humans and elves were like fire and water, sworn enemies. At that time, Mona was just an elf warrior, and it was the dispute with humans that led her to meet Ye Shikai.

..................

Two thousand years ago...

"Mona, there are human soldiers in the rear, you quickly lead a team to deal with them." The young Mona, a fine warrior, was highly valued by the elf elders.

"Yes, Great Elder Primordial Soul." Mona led dozens of elf warriors, hiding in the woods at the rear.

Mona instructed the elf warriors to spread out and hide behind the big trees around, carefully observing the movements in the surroundings.

"Crack." The sound of branches being snapped underfoot came from the ground, Mona drew her dagger from her waist, vigilantly watching ahead.

"Be alert, someone is coming." Mona raised her dagger and said indifferently, as over twenty figures slowly emerged from the fog, dressed in tattered clothes and wielding weapons like long spears, broadswords, and shields.

"Mona, should we fight?" asked an elf warrior.

"Wait a moment, let them come a bit closer." Mona's eyes were like hooks, the dagger in her hand faintly gleaming. To her, any human was an enemy of the elf race.

"Fire the arrows." Suddenly, Mona shouted, and over a dozen arrows were shot instantly, stabbing into the chests of the humans as both sides immediately clashed.

"Charge." The elf warriors leaped down from the trees, with Mona leading the charge, rushing straight towards a human, her sharp dagger immediately piercing the heart.

"There are elves." By this point, the remaining humans had also reacted, taking up their weapons to engage the elf warriors.

"General Ye, why does the government order us to patrol so frequently?" Meanwhile, not far away on the main road, a squad of armor-clad cavalry was patrolling, and the General leading at the front would be unbelievable to Ye Shikai if he saw him, because this General looked exactly like Ye Shikai.

"Recently bandits have been rampant, our duty to keep the peace is paramount."

"Have all the brothers pay attention, this area is where banditry is most severe."

"Yes, General Ye." The Deputy General turned his horse around, galloping in the opposite direction, loudly proclaiming, "By General Ye's orders, banditry is rampant in this area, be on guard."

"General Ye, I think that Mr. Liu from the government seems to be conspiring against you, you must be wary." Another Deputy General spoke up.

"Vice General Shangguan, no need to speak of this further, I only have to perform my duties, the rest is not of concern." Ye Shikai spoke indifferently, his tone somewhat frigid with a slight chill flickering between his eyes.

"Yes, General."

"Thud, thud." Suddenly, from the far-off woods, came the clashing of weapons and faint cries for help.

"General, it sounds like there's noise coming from over there." The Deputy General surnamed Shangguan pointed towards the woods nearby.

"Let's go, take a look." Ye Shikai didn't hesitate at all, kicking his horse into a gallop, with the cavalry quickly following behind him.

"Mona, only this one person is left." After a fierce battle, only one of the humans remained and he was now surrounded by the elf warriors.

"You... don't come near." The human wielded his longsword, face stricken with fear, his limbs trembling incessantly. He did not notice a stone beneath his feet, stumbled, and fell headlong, dropping the longsword.

"Let me finish this." Mona's expression was blank, her hand gripping the dagger tightly, as she step by step approached.

"Don't... please, no." The human scrambled backwards in terror, closing his eyes in a final prayer.

"Meet your end."

"Thwack." Just as the dagger was about to strike, an arrow shot from a distance hit the blade of the dagger. Mona's grip loosened, and the dagger fell to the ground.

"Who is it?"
