Nowadays, there are many big families on the mainland who have noticed Zhao Hai and his group. In a place like Montenegro, it is naturally impossible for only the Majidel family to set up an intelligence point there. In fact, many big families on the mainland have
There are intelligence points there. Some of these intelligence points are just storefronts, while others are actually a mercenary group.
Those big families set up intelligence points here not to investigate any major military affairs. In a place like Montenegro, no major military events could happen. There is only one main purpose for setting up intelligence points here, talent!
Most of the great nobles here in Ark Continent are those who have been passed down for more than a thousand years. Such great nobles are naturally very aware of the importance of talents to them, and for a noble, a powerful warrior is still of great help to them.
Yes, so places like Montenegro Fortress where adventurers and mercenaries gather, there will be intelligence officers sent by major families there in order to discover those warriors with potential and bring them into the family to become members of the family.
One point of strength.
It is precisely because of this that when Zhao Hai and others appeared in Black Mountain Fortress, many big families received the news and have been watching them.
But those who were paying attention to Zhao Hai and the others obviously miscalculated. They did not expect that Zhao Hai and the others did not live in the city, but went to live outside the city, and they usually went to the space to rest at night.
This makes it impossible for those who want to track them to discover their whereabouts, which makes them look very strange.
However, the performance of Zhao Hai and others made those people even more sure that he was a black magician. Those people followed Zhao Hai not because they wanted to win over him, but because they were afraid that Zhao Hai and others would be detrimental to their family.
Although ordinary nobles will also recruit some black magicians, they generally know the black magicians thoroughly. No one from Ye Luzi is willing to recruit black magicians, so no one has contacted Zhao Hai and the others.
Zhao Hai and the others didn't know that someone was following them. They still moved forward at their own speed. Now they were not moving very fast. There were too many pedestrians on the road. Of course, they couldn't go too fast, otherwise they might get into accidents.
of.
Even if you ride a horse from Montenegro to Casa City, it will take seven days. Zhao Hai and the others are traveling at about the same speed as riding horses. It will also take about seven days to get to Casa City.
They have been walking for three days now. During these three days, they ran through two small cities and countless small villages. This shows that the Principality of Versailles is still very prosperous.
On the morning of the fourth day, Zhao Hai and the others came out of the space together as usual and hurried on as usual. Fortunately, it was not the rainy season yet, so although the road was a dirt road, it was very smooth, and the aliens walked without any bumps.
Feel.
But today, Zhao Hai felt a little strange as he walked along. How should I put it, something seemed to be missing. Zhao Hai looked around in confusion, wondering what exactly was missing.
When Zhao Hai was puzzled, Meg said: "Master, it's strange. We have been walking for more than two hours, but we still haven't found anyone passing by. At this time every day, there are already many people."
Hearing what Meg said, Zhao Hai finally realized that something was wrong. It had been more than two hours since the morning and they had not met anyone. No wonder he felt so weird, as if something was missing. It turned out to be
There are fewer people.
Zhao Hai felt something was wrong and immediately said in a deep voice: "Stop." The alien stopped immediately. Zhao Hai stood up, held the alien's ribs, and said to Green: "Grandpa Green, did something happen?
Why have we walked for so long and still haven’t met anyone?”
Green nodded and said: "I have noticed it a long time ago, but don't worry, young master, let's go forward. I really want to see what happened. Anyway, the young master can hide in the space, and there is no problem."
People can find you."
Zhao Hai smiled bitterly for a while. He thought that Green had not noticed it. He did not expect that Green had noticed it a long time ago. Moreover, although what he said was a bit irresponsible, it was also reasonable. They couldn't just ignore it just because they didn't know what was going on.
If they move forward, then they don't have to do anything.
When he thought of this, Zhao Hai couldn't help but nodded, waved his hand and said: "Okay, let's go." The alien started immediately and was still moving forward at a constant speed. It really seemed a bit unhurried.
the meaning of.
However, Zhao Hai and Meg became nervous. They were both people who had never seen a big scene. They were not as calm as Green. They were both a little restless and paying attention to the surrounding situation. It seemed that there would be something happening at any time in the surrounding woods.
It's like a monster rushing out.
But what surprised Zhao Hai and the others was that they walked all morning without encountering anyone. Even in the villages they passed by, no one was worried and everyone seemed to have disappeared.
When passing by a village, they went into the village and took a closer look. There was no one in that village. But what surprised Zhao Hai and the others was that it didn't look like they had been attacked. It seemed that all the villagers were there.
He left by himself, but the strange thing is that the villagers obviously left just after getting up. There was no fire in the stove at home, and the quilt was not folded. It seemed that they didn't even put on their clothes before they got up from the quilt.
Just left.
There wasn't even a chicken or a dog in the whole tree. It was completely dead. Coupled with the messy beds, Zhao Hai and the others couldn't help but feel chilled. This village was too weird. It looked weirder than theirs.
The combination is much weirder.
Green looked at the village carefully for a long time, but still didn't find anything, but his face became even more gloomy. He turned to Zhao Hai and said: "Xiao Hai, call your grandma Meilin out, she may be able to see something.
."
Zhao Hai responded, immediately opened the space, and called Merlin out. Merlin had been paying attention to the situation outside, and naturally knew what was happening outside, so after she came out, she didn't say much, and just looked around carefully.
He took a look, then closed his eyes and softly recited a few spells.
A ball of blue light appeared on her body, and then spread out like sunlight. The light flashed for about five minutes before slowly disappearing.
Merlin also slowly opened his eyes, but said to Zhao Hai and the others with a solemn expression: "Young Master, someone here used the temptation technique of black magic to attract all the living creatures in the village. I don't know where to go."
Got there."
Zhao Hai was stunned and said: "Black magic? You mean there has been a black magician here?"
Merlin nodded and said, "Although some time has passed and the magic energy here has almost disappeared, I can still be sure that someone has used black magic here."
Zhao Hai and Green's expressions both darkened. They were certain that the fact that they didn't meet anyone on the road today must have something to do with this matter, and that this matter might even implicate them.
Don't forget, Zhao Hai's current identity is a black magician, and there is a black magician here who uses black magic. So many people have been taken away. This situation must not be hidden anymore. What might happen then?
, Merlin can find out that there are black magicians here who have used magic, and other magicians can also. When the time comes, people will know that the disappearance of people here is related to the black magicians, and then Zhao Hai may also become a target of suspicion.
This is what Green and Zhao Hai are worried about. The black magician who seduces so many people at once will definitely not do anything good. If he does something bad, it will bring a lot of trouble to Zhao Hai. Now
What Zhao Hai fears most is trouble.
Merlin obviously thought of this. He turned to Zhao Hai and said: "Master, why don't we stop pretending to be black magicians, otherwise we will bring you big trouble."
Zhao Hai shook his head and said: "Besides this black magician, if I dress up as anyone else, people may discover our identity faster. In that case, we will be more dangerous. Grandma Merlin, can you feel it?
In what direction did the black magician lead the people here? Let's chase after him to see if this trouble can be solved. If this trouble can be solved, that would be the best. Even if it cannot be solved, don't let the mortals
People from the Purcell family are suspicious of us."
When such a big thing happens, it is impossible for the Versailles family to ignore it. This is their family's territory. The people who live here are their people and they pay taxes like theirs. Naturally, they have the obligation to ensure that they
of safety.
There is only one way for Zhao Hai to dissuade others from suspecting him, which is to find the real murderer and hand that guy over to the Versailles family, so that he will naturally not be suspected.
Although Green doesn't want Zhao Hai to have any interaction with the Versail family, but when things have reached this point, this is the only way to prevent Zhao Hai from being suspected. After all, they are now on the territory of the Versail family. If Zhao Hai really
If he is suspected by the Versailles family, the trouble will be even greater. Otherwise, his identity will soon be revealed to the gang, and now Zhao Hai's identity must not be revealed to the gang.
Merlin was also looking at Green. He wanted to know if Green agreed with Zhao Hai. If Green agreed, then she would find a way to find out the direction of the magician and get that guy out.
Green also knew what Merlin meant, so he could only nod impatiently and said: "Okay, just do as the young master said, find that guy and hand him over to the Versailles family, so that our next plan can continue.
"
Merlin nodded and used the magic just now, but this time it took longer, a full ten minutes to complete. After the magic was completed, Merlin pointed in the direction to Casa City and said: "
It's in that direction, and maybe it's for this reason that we didn't meet anyone along the way."
