On the Evil Dragon Volcano Island, the Red Dragon King Cecilia Hardy slowly withdrew her magic.
"Enhancing the mana for that elf from a distance truly cost me a lot of magic. Nine-tenths of the teleportation mana disappeared halfway. I've obtained the human item. Now, all that's needed is Lan Hai Aixi's tracking magic to find the humans' location. I'll send dragons to bring them back in three days."
The elf, riding a griffon, had to descend to an elven city every four hundred kilometers to feed the griffon. Every thousand kilometers, the elf would switch to a new griffon to continue the flight.
This elf had been flying in the sky for three days and three nights and still hadn't reached the center of the continent.
This elf, riding a flying horse and flying for days and nights, was naturally captured by satellites. However, since it wasn't a dragon, no further tracking was initiated.
After three days, the Red Dragon King Cecilia Hardy emerged from her lair and used magic to sense the Evil Dragons that were still in their active phase. The Red Dragon King Cecilia Hardy decided to find a fast-flying Evil Dragon to escort the elf.
The Red Dragon King Cecilia Hardy sensed around and finally found an Evil Dragon that flew very fast.
The Red Dragon King Cecilia Hardy flew directly to the front of that Evil Dragon's lair.
The Red Dragon King Cecilia Hardy unleashed her dragon might.
The Evil Dragon inside the lair quickly came out.
"Lord Red Dragon King Cecilia Hardy, what business do you have with me?" This was a green Evil Dragon.
The Red Dragon King Cecilia Hardy said, "Stephen Rechel. I need you to go and meet an elf. He is currently in possession of something very important."
Stephen Rechel asked, "Something very important?"
The Red Dragon King Cecilia Hardy said, "That's right, something very important. You must bring it here."
"Lord Red Dragon King Cecilia Hardy, can you tell me what exactly this important thing is?"
"It's a piece of cloth. A piece of cloth obtained from a human. Once you bring that cloth back, we can then find Lan Hai Aixi and track where the humans came from."
"Yes, Lord Red Dragon King Cecilia Hardy."
Upon receiving the mission, Stephen Rechel spread his dragon wings and flew away from the place.
As Stephen Rechel flew out of the Evil Dragon Volcano Island, many Evil Dragons saw him.
Lan Hai Aixi was lying on the beach of the Evil Dragon Volcano Island, sunbathing.
When Stephen Rechel flew past, Lan Hai Aixi looked up at Stephen Rechel flying away.
"Why did Stephen Rechel fly away? Isn't he afraid of the Red Dragon King's anger? Never mind him. I'll continue sunbathing."
Lan Hai Aixi flipped over and continued to sunbathe there.
After flying out of the Evil Dragon Volcano Island, Stephen Rechel continued to fly eastward.
At this moment, an elf was also flying westward on a griffon, heading towards him.
However, the griffon ridden by this elf was too slow.
The elf chose a griffon because a griffon's stamina far surpassed that of a Pegasus.
However, a griffon's appetite also surpassed that of a Pegasus.
Human Base in the magical world.
A larger red dot appeared on a screen.
The staff member looked at this red dot, which was larger than other red dots. He thought: Could this red dot be some kind of magical creature? A larger griffon?
The staff member enlarged this red dot.
As the red dot was magnified, the object began to show itself.
Finally, at a certain degree of magnification, the true form of this magical creature became clear.
It was a dragon.
The staff member immediately startled and said, "What? A dragon! A dragon. I've found a dragon!"
The staff member immediately used a satellite to lock onto this dragon.
The other staff members crowded around.
"A dragon, we've finally found a dragon."
"Have you locked onto this dragon?"
"The dragon has been locked onto. The satellite will keep tracking it."
"Immediately notify Colonel Chu Shi."
"..."
Upon receiving the news, Chu Shi immediately arrived at the satellite team's location.
Chu Shi watched the footage after playing it back.
"Continue tracking this dragon. This dragon is flying from the western sea. So, you also need to thoroughly scan the sea area here."
Chu Shi then continued to observe the dragon flying in the sky.
"Analyze the flight path of this dragon. See where it's heading."
The staff members used relevant software on the computers to calculate the dragon's flight path.
Soon, over a dozen routes appeared. The highest four routes were all heading eastward.
Chu Shi looked at the routes and began to analyze: It seems this dragon is heading towards the continent. Is it planning to cause destruction on the continent? The current location of the Evil Dragon Volcano Island is still unknown, likely hidden by a magical barrier that can conceal light and shadow. To find the Evil Dragon Volcano Island, we still need to carefully track this Evil Dragon.
As Chu Shi had expected, a few hours later, the dragon landed on the continent.
Meanwhile, the dragon Stephen Rechel, who was being monitored, felt a sense of being watched while flying. However, he looked left and right, even using his magic senses, but couldn't find the entity watching him.
Stephen Rechel thought to himself: What is going on? I clearly feel like I'm being watched by something, but I can't find it. Is it my imagination? No, that's impossible. As a dragon, I wouldn't have such illusions. There's only one possibility: whoever is watching me must be a being more powerful than me. Only the Red Dragon King Cecilia Hardy knows my whereabouts right now. So, there's only one possibility. The one watching me is the Red Dragon King Cecilia Hardy. This way of watching is surveillance. It seems the thing I need to retrieve is indeed very important.
Stephen Rechel was completely mistaken.
Chu Shi instructed the staff members to continuously monitor that dragon.
Stephen Rechel continued to fly eastward. Even when passing by elven cities, he did not cause any destruction. This behavior led Chu Shi to guess that this dragon was not here for destruction.
After two days of monitoring like this, a turning point finally arrived.
Stephen Rechel landed on a mountaintop.
An elf who had been waiting there knelt on one knee and said, "Greetings, Lord Dragon."
Stephen Rechel looked at the elf before him and sensed the magic of the Red Dragon King Cecilia Hardy from him.
"Elf, where is that important item?"
The elf quickly presented a delicate box with both hands. Even in his haste, the elf had used a box for packaging.
Stephen Rechel took the box and said, "Is this the important item?"
The elf quickly replied, "That's right, this is the important item that my master asked me to retrieve."
Stephen Rechel spread his dragon wings, creating a gust of wind, and flew away from there.
This scene was captured by the satellite.
Chu Shi said, "Enlarge the image of that elf. Immediately find out where the elf came from."
"Yes!"
