When Shado led the two goblins to the previous battlefield, Uk had already led his men to tie up the tail. Goblin corpses were scattered everywhere on the ground, and the villagers were temporarily driven into the olive grove.
Next, it was time to look at the two goblins captured. Xia Duo poked them with the tip of his sword again and scolded: "Where is the 'delicious food'? Find it quickly?"
I saw these two goblins being submissive, looking at the sword-carrying humans around them who were looking at them maliciously, and they became honest again, stretching their necks to sniff the air.
Soon they seemed to have discovered something and were about to run over. Then they subconsciously glanced at Xia Duo for the first time. After receiving Xia Duo's signal, they ran over on their two short legs.
"Wow wow - wow -"
As soon as they arrived at their destination, the two goblins screamed excitedly. This was a clearing between bushes. Of course, the bushes had long been cut down and the scattered branches had been trampled into the soil.
When Xia Duo looked at the surrounding environment, there was nothing strange about it. He entered the spell-casting concentration state, and there was nothing unusual about the magic network. He somewhat doubted the goblin's judgment.
However, looking at the relaxed expressions of these two goblins at the moment, as if they had forgotten the fact that they were threatened, and were enjoying something with their eyes narrowed, it was obvious that they had indeed discovered something.
Sha Duo turned his attention to Uk who was following him, "Captain Uk, what do you think?"
Uk's expression was extremely serious at this time. He carefully observed the performance of the two goblins, and then solemnly said: "Master Xia Duo, I think we should report it immediately. These goblins were obviously attracted deliberately.
.”
It's natural to be happy to find the reason for the goblin's abnormal behavior, but reporting it is the most important thing in Uk's eyes. This can not only wash away the mistakes of the past few days, but also maybe get a reward.
"I'm not busy, Captain Uk. I'm just sure that someone is doing something wrong, but I haven't found the real reason. I think it's not the right time to go in."
In fact, achieving this level is enough for Uk and others, but it is not enough for Xia Duo. Is it worth 20 gold coins just to go around and find some abnormalities?
Then these gold coins are very profitable.
After calming down Uk's turbulent mood, Shado was ready to take the goblin to the olive grove to see if there was anything unusual there.
He just let him poke him with the tip of his sword several times. The goblin who seemed to have become more honest before now completely forgot about Sha Duo's threat and just continued to be intoxicated by something invisible.
"No. 1! No. 2! Get down immediately!"
When the codes "No. 1" and "No. 2" were called, the two goblins reacted, their bodies shook unconsciously, but then they stopped responding.
The effect of words was minimal. Xia Duo penetrated the palm of Goblin No. 2 with a sword. The severe pain immediately brought it back to reality. Seeing Xia Duo's unkind expression, he immediately fell to the ground, trembling.
No. 1 seemed to have noticed something unusual in the atmosphere, and glanced at Xia Duo. Looking into Xia Duo's emotionless eyes, No. 1 was also frightened and fell to the ground.
"Go over there!" Xia Duo pointed in the direction of the olive grove and ordered.
No. 1 and No. 2 immediately stood up and walked slowly towards the olive grove, but Xia Duo could see that their movements were very resistant, "Stop!"
The two goblins stopped and even stepped back. Xia Duo pointed in the direction of the olive grove and asked the goblins, "Is there anything 'delicious' over there?"
"Woah woah -" The two goblins danced and gestured back and forth. It took a while for Xia Duo to understand that the so-called "delicious food" can only be found here.
So why do these goblins attack olive groves and even destroy olive trees when they gather in a certain number?
For the time being, Xia Duo could only attribute it to the influence of magic, but he still didn't know what kind of magic it was, and he didn't even notice any abnormalities in the magic network here.
Since he was like this, it was conceivable that other people would come over and probably clear out the gathered goblins, and then there would be nothing more to do.
"Captain Uk, take these two goblins elsewhere and I will check them again."
Xia Duo wanted to use magic. Although "only magic can deal with magic" is not a universal truth, it is a rule of thumb in many cases.
After Uk drove the two goblins out of the way, Shado began to try.
Although he can't see anything abnormal in the magic net now, when he casts a level 1 spell and pulls it to the first layer of the magic net, the mutual interference of magic may reveal some flaws in the mysterious magic.
Xia Duo currently has two level 1 spells, or to be more precise, only one, which is [Steam Ray] which he researched and created by himself. The warlock's spell is more of an ability than a spell.
Although it can also pull the magic net for the first time, this ability does not have a clear specification. Instead, with Xia Duo's thoughts, the magic net automatically generates feedback, and the spell structure and elements are different every time.
However, the scope of these spells is limited to water-related, so Shado calls this ability "Water Control".
This ability can be used at will, and does not need to be cast in strict accordance with certain rules like a mage's spells. Sha Duo's temptation is to use this ability.
A huge water ball appeared out of nowhere in front of Sha Duo. As soon as it appeared, the magic net was strongly "tugged" in Sha Duo's magic vision.
Xia Duo controlled the water ball to sweep back and forth where the two goblins were lingering just now, and the source of the magic network's fluctuations also moved back and forth with the water ball.
But at this moment, Xia Duo's attention was not on the effect of this spell, but on the background fluctuations of the magic network. He was keenly aware that the magic network he was observing was not natural, and seemed to have undergone some kind of man-made process.
Interference seems a bit "rigid".
He didn't feel much about it before, but when Xia Duo added the factor of his own interference with the magic network, the sense of violation became stronger and stronger. Finally, he discovered an abnormality——
A set of elements that were completely operated on the surface of the magic network, but successfully connected the first layer of the deep magic network, and were hidden in the fluctuations on the surface of the magic network.
Xia Duo has never seen such a precise and complicated operation. Originally, if he had not awakened his bloodline, he would have used a similar method to break through the surface of the magic network and enter the deep magic network.
However, before Xia Duo's idea could be truly realized, he had already awakened his bloodline and could directly "observe" the first layer of the magic network, so there was no need to be so cumbersome.
But here, Xia Duo's idea is really realized. Of course, it is not to break through the magic network, but to hide the fluctuations of the magic network, or to hide the magic aura.
There is such a magic that is continuously working. If it is not hidden, then any apprentice can find it. What is the point of all the hard work of setting up the magic?
But now these have been revealed in front of Xia Duo, and the secrets inside are what Xia Duoji wants to know. He carefully maintains the bloodline spell to keep interfering with the nearby magic network.
At the same time, Chateau quickly took out the notes he carried with him and called Uk over to help him hold the ink bottle.
