Penis's mecha lay on a small hill, as he carefully observed the mine in front of him. This mine wasn't very large, but Penis noticed that there wasn't a single living person inside; only magical beasts and undead beings were present.
The magical beasts were of a type they had never seen before, covered in scales. Their figures weren't particularly tall, but they appeared very powerful and were quite fast.
The undead beings all resembled skeletons, yet Penis didn't regard them as weaklings like mosquitoes; instead, he believed these undead beings were quite high-level, though not as strong as themselves.
After all, they were the elite of the O'Neill family, each using a divine-level mecha. Producing such a mecha was extremely difficult within the O'Neill family, so it was only natural that the undead beings were of a lower level than them.
Penis was very experienced; unlike Taiwu, who had never been in a real battle and was a recent genius in the O'Neill family, Penis had climbed from the very bottom to his current position. He had participated in hundreds of battles, so his experience was tremendously rich. This was why he led the reconnaissance team, while Lushiming held the real authority in Taiwu's squad.
Penis didn't dare to underestimate this mine. Although it seemed like there were no defenses, he noticed that the distribution of undead beings inside was very reasonable. They were all engaged in fixed tasks, appearing harmless, but Penis believed that any attack from any direction would immediately alert those undead beings, and the one who set up the mine's defenses must be a master.
What surprised Penis even more was that these undead beings were continuously working without any replacements or anyone seen directing them. There wasn't even a single building in this mine, only many tunnels where magical beasts and undead beings came and went, making it impossible to see any humans. This left Penis quite puzzled.
In his impression, undead beings needed a mage to command them, and a mage wouldn't allow them to stay outside indefinitely, as that would consume too much magical energy. Even the divine-level mages from the Atlantis Continent wouldn't keep undead beings close by daily; they would only summon them during battles and dismiss them afterward.
However, Penis had been lying on the hill for over two hours, yet the undead beings in the mine continued their mechanical tasks without showing any sign of rest. This puzzled him and also weighed heavily on his mood.
The number of undead beings and magical beasts in this mine might not be great, but Penis had noticed something unusual. This mine was certainly not the only one of the enemy's, which meant they had more magical beasts and undead beings. Moreover, the enemy's undead could operate outside for extended periods, indicating that their endurance in battle was much stronger than theirs. After all, once the mecha ran out of energy, it would be finished.
After observing the mine for a while longer, Penis decided to retreat. There was no need to look any further; he wasn't planning to attack this mine because he was well aware that most of the ones working there were undead beings. Although he hadn't seen anyone directing these undead beings, based on past experiences, these undead beings would maintain a mental connection with their master. If he attacked them, it would undoubtedly draw the enemy's attention, and he didn't want to be noticed.
What Penis didn't realize was that his every move had been watched by Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai admired this O'Neill family scout. If it weren't for his space ability, he wouldn't have been able to detect Penis at all. Penis was shrewd in his actions, and such a person was the hardest to deal with.
Actually, while Zhao Hai was keeping an eye on Penis and his team, he was focusing more on the O'Neill family's scouts who were operating in the southern part of the Ark Continent. Those scouts were advancing quickly and were close to the border between the Pagoda Empire and the kingdom of light.
