Chapter 25 Locating it

"I don't know, he didn't come back with me." Faced with her uncle's question about her younger brother, Arya answered truthfully.

After hearing Arya's answer, the young priest's heart beat loudly in his chest.

The palpitating rhythm of his heart made him feel on pins and needles. The rainy day was very cold, but the sweat on his chest still wet his clothes.

After spending a little time, Jacks finally found two scrolls of [Item Locating Technique] that had been gathering dust in the debris pile, and handed them to the blond boy who was sitting quietly aside.

At the same time, in front of Chabron's eyes, new words were appearing in the data column:

【Short break completed】

[Recovery times of channeling divine power (1/1)]

[Consumption of resilience (hit dice), health recovery]

Taking the yellowed scroll handed over by Jacks, the blond boy gently wiped away the dust with his hand, and traced the mysterious symbols with his fingertips.

Taking a deep breath, the priest boy recited a mantra, and a faint light lit up from his body - in order to increase the success rate, Chabron blessed himself with a [Divine Guidance Technique].

With the assistance of the prophecy system, Chabron carefully guided the magical energy at his fingertips.

————————

Chabron knew that [Object Locating Technique] was one of the most practical functional second-level spells.

On the surface, the scope of the spells of this prophecy school is only a sphere with a radius of several hundred meters with the caster as the center, and the coverage is very limited.

But experienced spellcasters know what to do to complete a wide range of searches:

As long as the caster keeps moving during the duration of the spell, wouldn't the spell be able to scan a wider area?

Theoretically, as long as the movement speed is fast enough, the entire world can be within the scope of the spell. Chabron thought.

—————————

Wisps of golden rivers flowed on the scroll, and the shining light penetrated the dust. One after another, the magic symbols that had been buried for a long time lit up on the parchment.

Watching the blond boy in front of him awaken the dusty spell in the scroll, Jacks took a vaccination on the side:

"Hey, my little Chabron, don't be disappointed even if the spell has no effect - when I was an adventurer, the old-fashioned mage in the team always emphasized to me that [Object Location Spell] is not omnipotent, and lead can easily

Isolate its magic detection waves and block the location detection of this spell."

Golden flames were burning on the scroll, highlighting the young priest's delicate cheeks. He raised his head and answered:

"I thought about this situation, and fortunately there are two scrolls here.

"If the iron book is not found in the first scroll until the end of the spell, I will try to activate the second scroll and cast the spell again."

The tall and tall man leaned on the easy chair, obviously a little confused:

"However, even if you cast the spell again, the new spell may still be blocked by the lead box."

Chabron shook his head, his blond hair as bright and gorgeous as the sun not moving in the wind:

"No.

"If the first positioning fails, the second time...

“I would directly target ‘lead products that are larger than a tin book’.”

The blond boy stood there. Behind him, the patter of rain formed the background sound of his calm and calm tone.

It's like saying something natural.

---------------

Lead can resist the detection of [Object Location Spell]. As the spell description says:

[If there is lead of any thickness blocking the path between you and the object being located, this spell cannot locate the object.]

Chabron believes that directly locating the "lead box" itself is an effective countermeasure - if someone is trying to hide something, then he or she will definitely hide items in the lead box that do not want to be detected. A cunning spellcaster

Even if the researcher does not have any clues, he can directly locate the "lead box" itself.

The curtain hiding the truth is the clue itself.

After all, no one would hide a lead box inside a lead box just to cover up a lead box.

Even if a lead box is hidden inside a lead box in order to cover it up, the lead box used to cover up the lead box is just as likely to be discovered as the lead box concealed by the lead box.

---------------

Six seconds longer than eternity are over.

After the spell was cast, in an instant, the scroll turned into ashes in the fluttering golden flames, and the priest boy's perception was rapidly amplified under the influence of the prophecy magic.

Primordial magic answered his call, the stars aligned with him, and the webs of the universe merged with him.

His perception extends along the magic network, extends, and extends hundreds of meters away...

rushing stream.

Falling maple leaves.

Insects on the ground.

Falling raindrops.

Pedestrians walking through the rain curtain.

Everything in the world has become the eyes and ears of the priest.

Then, all these things lost their color and shape and turned into a boundless ocean under the vast night sky. Only the only "positioning target" was the only shining "lighthouse" in the black ocean.

Chabron pictured the appearance of the iron book in his mind - slightly larger than the palm of his hand, with a pure black thick metal cover and no words.

The little priest's brain was connected to the magic network. He adjusted the parameters of the spell, and in an instant set the scope of the search target, the key characteristics and the "fuzziness" of the match, allowing all iron books of the same style to become [Item Locating Technique]

search target.

Any object that meets the criteria will be exposed to his perception.

----------

[Object Locating Technique] When trying to locate a target, you have two options:

One is to locate a specific object, such as a specific mobile phone.

The second is to locate a certain type of object, such as all mobile phones. If you choose the second positioning method, only the nearest target that meets the conditions will be sensed.

Usually an inexperienced adventurer might simply locate "the iron book that just disappeared" at this time, but after careful consideration, Chabron deduced from the fact that "the warlock who attacked him before led him into the woods"

The other party should have allies.

Therefore, it is possible that there is more than one similar iron book!

So he deliberately chose the second positioning method - that is, not only the one lost by the warlock will be exposed to his perception, but also all the iron books of the same style will be located. But only the nearest one can be locked.

.

----------

The perception magnified by magic continued, and the blond boy's pupils tightened. In the perception that stretched for hundreds of meters, a little light from the positioning target was as clear as a beacon in the dark night.

"Hey, our little Chabron, what do you feel?" Jacks looked at the boy with wide eyes.

Chabron's body couldn't help but tremble slightly, his golden hair moved without any wind, and his green pupils suddenly dilated.

The beautiful young man raised his slender fingers gently.

Lift up.

Lift up.

Pointed to...

upstairs!

"That iron book is... right in your new home, right in this room!

"In the northwest corner of the second floor!"

Chabron's eyes were filled with surprise.

Jacks was startled and ran upstairs quickly.

The young man's mind was running at high speed. In his original understanding, the iron book carried by the magician should be a religious and symbolic ritual instrument. It may even record forbidden knowledge from outside the world, and it does not rule out that it is enchanted.

possible.

Could it be that after the iron book was dropped by the magician, it activated itself during the fierce battle with the Scarecrow, moved away, and quietly came to Jacks' new residence?

At this moment, the young pastor thought of another possibility.

He couldn't help but feel a chill on his back and his scalp was numb.

Ignoring Arya's blank look behind him, the blond boy suddenly opened the door, rushed out of the house, and threw himself into the increasingly heavy rain curtain outside.

There is another possibility.

A, worse possibility.
