A consensus was quickly reached, and the team did not waste any time. They immediately returned to the sewers along the same route, and marched quickly towards the planned second route.
However, at this time, the sequelae of Felin's escape had already begun to take shape.
The monsters entrenched in the sewers are not only patrolling everywhere, but there are also quite a lot of them. They seem to have received clear orders and are heading towards the secret passage in groups.
Even though Isaac and the others left fast enough.
It didn't take much time, but it still encountered several waves of impact one after another.
Moreover, following these encounters, it was obvious that the monsters seemed to have roughly located their location.
It can be predicted that the encounters that will follow will inevitably be more frequent and larger in scale.
Regarding this…
"Ai Lin, wait a minute, give me the map first!"
Just as he was clearing out the new wave of monsters encountered, marching continuously, and fighting continuously, Otis, who was already a little out of breath, suddenly called everyone to continue marching.
map!
Aileen's map, this is from Efraska's Hunting Hall.
Because Efraska has always been in seclusion, the city and the sewers are all under their control.
So, the sewer route map, it's very comprehensive.
Unless it is a newly opened area after the Felin Demon Kui occupied it, basically everything in the sewers is on this map.
Otis suddenly wanted to look at this map...
With a thought in his heart, everyone knew that he must have discovered something from the monster's constant attacks.
After all, this person is an "indigenous" of Efraska, and he knows everything about Efraska better than everyone else, which is normal.
"good!"
Ai Lin quickly took out the map and handed it to him.
Otis unfolded the map, determined and circled the area where they were now and the location of the previous encounter, and then connected the lines on the map a few times.
He closed his eyes, and many thoughts quickly passed through his mind.
When he opened his eyes again, Otis had already confirmed his previous suspicion, and then said: "I think I know where they are going!"
"This is the location where we've been hit by attacks one after another."
"This is the direction those monsters come from every time they are attacked."
"We extend this direction in the opposite direction, and then consider the time difference between each attack..."
As he spoke, Otis used his fingers to circle dots on the map, and continued to connect and extend the lines. In the end, these lines roughly converged on a route.
This route pointed to the northeast of the sewer, and there was a big angle difference from the east direction they pointed to the Magic Martial Arts Academy.
However, after confirming this direction, Otis looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "If the attacks of these monsters are due to the direct orders of the Phaylings, then I think the destination of these Phaylings is
, it’s time to be here…”
Point your finger directly on a line-intensive area on the sewer map.
The voice did not stop: "Yunguan Palace!"
Cloud Crown Palace, where the Royal Court of Efraska is located, is also the core place where monsters reside in the royal city.
This time the elves are preparing to launch a war, and none of the three major targets of the initial battle are directed at it.
These Felin Demon Sunflowers fled from the "Hidden Palace", and if they were heading towards Yunguan Palace...
"Yes, that's exactly what it should be."
"They are lurking in the 'Hidden Palace'. If they are a monster army secretly manipulating the surface of the earth, Yunguan Palace is the most critical place."
Danilo nodded. Of course, he did not want to change his goal. He wanted to complete the reconnaissance mission of the Magic Martial Arts Academy first. This was always the first goal of him and Aililin.
so……
He first agreed with Otis's judgment, but his voice did not stop, and he continued: "Yunguan Palace, this nest, whether it is on the surface or in the sewers, is where the monster army is most densely populated. Even us,
To pursue them, there will be many obstacles, and there may even be possibilities designed for them.
However, this was just normal times, just before.
The great lord has launched the 'Ten Days Decisive Battle', and the legion's attack and recovery of the royal city will inevitably disrupt all their arrangements.
Therefore, we still need to cooperate with the strategic plan first. After recovering the 'Magic Martial Arts Academy', 'Tower of the Moon', and 'Tower of Star Meadow', we can then join forces from three aspects to launch the final siege of Cloud Crown Palace.
Thinking about it, when that time comes, with the habits of these phaerimms, they will inevitably be the first to escape.
However, since we have already identified their location and made arrangements in advance, it will not be so easy for them to escape the next time they encounter!"
Complete the reservation plan first.
After conquering the three important areas, we will launch a decisive battle and siege on Yunguan Palace.
Once the military strength here is taken, if the Felin Demon Kui withdraws again...
Isaac nodded slightly, and some admiration flashed through his eyes.
After all, the cheap nephew was trained by the old thief Kelben. The reaction speed of his brain and the agility of his thinking are a bit like his early demeanor.
"Danilo makes sense."
"If we pursue him directly, the possibility of falling into their plan is not small."
"On the contrary, when the three-sided siege on the royal city takes shape, it will be time for them to fall into our design."
"Continue the reconnaissance mission."
Isaac expressed his approval of his eldest nephew.
With his statement like this, it was naturally impossible for Arilyn and Elise to object, and the Shadow Mage also had no intention of confrontation.
At that moment, everyone nodded in agreement.
They continued their rapid march towards the secret passage of the second route.
Along the way, there are still attacks from groups of monsters, which happen constantly.
There was even an attack by a large team composed of three-digit monsters.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! After a series of fierce battles, in fact, by this time, both Ai Lin and Otis, including Eles, are already full of strength.
In decline.
However, Isaac overcame all their decline.
Such continuous fierce battles would appear to be very intense to others.
But for him, it is a real "walk in the garden".
Not to mention that he only used the spell a few times. Along the way, except for stepping on the demon soul corpse, he used some strength. At other times, he just used it casually.
Therefore, when he started to get serious, he exerted a little more energy, and also used the spell-like abilities acquired through the Barlow Fire Demon form...
After rushing all the way, not long after, the entrance to the secret passage of the second route also arrived.
However, it is even worse than the secret passage leading to the "Hidden Palace".
That secret passage, for the purpose of hiding it, at least did not destroy anything.
The secret passage here doesn't even have a gate.
It can be seen at a glance that it is the work of the beholder's "dissociation ray". The gate of the secret passage is now a large cave entrance.
However, even Aililin was not surprised by this.
The ability of the Phaerin Demon Kui, as well as the numerous beholders and illithids, were discovered even in the "Hidden Hall". It is naturally not an unacceptable thing for this backup secret passage to be discovered.
"There are signs that monsters often come in and out. This secret passage should also be occupied by monsters, or it may be one of the direct communication channels between the academy and underground monsters."
At the entrance of the secret passage, Aililin only looked at it for a moment, and then her eyes wrinkled slightly.
From this point of view, it would be a bit difficult to sneak into the academy unnoticed, or even make as little noise as possible.
Fortunately, after burying the "Hidden Hall" and roughly grasping the location of the Felin Demon Sunflower, it was not without results.
Danilo was also observing and thinking.
Stopping for a moment at the entrance of the cave, he suddenly turned to look at Isaac and said: "Uncle Lei, do you think we should continue on this route, or...you think, if we change our route now
Would the ground route be better?"
Judging from the growing momentum in the sewers, once the monsters are confirmed and their destination is the academy...
Danilo had a premonition that if they really broke into this secret passage, they would probably encounter an overall attack from the monster army entrenched in the academy along the way.
In addition, the monsters in the sewer are also chasing...
Under such a flanking attack, I'm afraid that by then, I'll have to rely on Uncle Lei again.
Instead of counting on Uncle Lei at that time, why not ask him for instructions now?
If this secret passage is not feasible, then is it possible to simply jump out of this level of thinking and take the surface route instead?
At this time, no matter how bad the surface conditions are, it won't be more difficult to infiltrate than here, right?
"Take the ground route instead?"
Danilo's words made everyone's expressions move without realizing it, and they all showed a look of deep thinking.
They all looked at Isaac.
Isaac thought about it for a moment, then looked at Arilyn: "Give me the map, including the city map on the ground."
Eileen quickly took it out.
Isaac unfolded both maps. On the sewer side, he just briefly observed the distance of the route, and then focused on the city map.
The location of the Academy of Magic and Martial Arts, the surrounding environment, and the map also include many places marked with red circles that have been destroyed and reduced to ruins.
With a high degree of intelligence, he can grasp most situations by observing in a blink of an eye.
Isaac looked at the Ghost Mage again: "Sir Ilki, if you transfer to the ground, where can you teleport directly to?"
Teleportation, this cannot be done with accurate coordinates.
Only with advanced teleportation skills and knowledge of the destination can accurate delivery be achieved.
As one of the guardians of the "Shadow Shield", Ilki can teleport within it. His caster level has already mastered the "Advanced Teleportation Technique". Moreover, against most people under the shield,
There is understanding in every place.
However, even so...
Ilki said lightly: "Direct teleportation is not possible within the academy. The Academy of Magic and Martial Arts already has many barriers, and Felin Demon Kui has performed evil rituals there. Even now, there are still powerful people there.
Repulsion effects, prophecy and teleportation spells cannot be directly located.
Near the college, all I know are these places..."
He drew a few circles on the map with his finger, and then continued: "However, if I go to these places alone, I can evade the other party's vigilance to a certain extent, but if I take you to teleport together, it will still be
With things like this now, they must have heightened their vigilance, and it is almost impossible to keep this secret!"
If you go alone, he has the natural abilities of "Shadow Leap" and "Shadow Teleportation", and can maintain sufficient privacy under the "Shadow Shield".
But to transport people together, you need to use "advanced teleportation".
"Shadow Shield" has no cover for "Advanced Teleportation".
Isaac looked at the places he circled one by one, and then he had a number.
In fact, if he is willing to reveal the "Legendary Hidden" effect of the protection card, he only needs to use the "Invisibility Technique". Except for a very small number of elders, there is basically no possibility that anyone else will notice the abnormality.
However, the most important reason for the Yin Hun people, even those Yin Hun Princes, is that he has revealed his "Warlock" level and is not prepared to expose the constant effects of legendary spells.
So, currently...
With a flash of thought, Isaac said calmly: "In that case, let's move on. I'll take care of this first!"
As he spoke, he waved his hand and began to cast the illusion barrier.
The environment of the secret tunnel entrance is still maintained, but there is a "suggestion" effect woven into it.
In this way, whenever a monster approaches here, after investigation, a confident determination will be made that the target has not entered here.
Such hints will certainly not last long, but as long as it is enough for them to complete the investigation of the academy, it will be enough.
When the subsequent war actually breaks out, it won't matter what kind of reaction there is.
"gone!"
With the completion of the barrier and another call, Danilo and the others no longer cared about indulging in appreciation and deliberation, and entered the secret passage one after another.
Quick, transformation after transformation, invisibility through invisibility.
Moreover, since we walked this secret passage, we were bound to encounter more monsters. This time, Isaac walked directly at the front.
It only takes a while.
In the perception of the soul's will, some abnormal auras appeared in front.
evil!
confusion!
Fall!
There is also an extremely vicious curse!
With a slight thought in Isaac's mind, he knew what was going on over there.
"Beholder, and the useless giant!"
In such a secret passage environment, coupled with the beholder's anti-magic field ability, the threat level of the ruined giant is much higher than that of the soul prisoner demon.
With such a combination guarding here, this secret passage has indeed become the connecting passage between the Magic Martial Arts Academy, the sewers and the underground.
