At 1:30 in the night, energy fluctuations of about the strength of a level 3 magic circle erupted simultaneously from three points with a radius of about 300 yards, with Lu Ming Church as the center of the circle. Even without the use of magic crystals, all awakened people could sense it.
This kind of battle fluctuation that was indistinguishable from provocation touched Pollitt's arrogant nerves, and Kellogg, who was filled with anger because of his frustration, was even more angry. Without waiting for Pollitt's order, he took his personal guard out, vowing to
Hang the heads of these ignorant dogs on the camp flagpole.
The Inquisition, as the only official body with jurisdiction over supernatural powers, was even more prepared and immediately sent three Lawspeakers to follow Kellogg to capture those daring criminals.
As for the monastery, which had been keeping its barracks closed, there was no movement due to Ian's order, as if the entire camp was empty.
"Master Hyde, they are taking action!" Jasmine had discussed with Ian and immediately knew what the situation was.
Ian nodded and said nothing. He pressed the magic crystal with one hand and poured all his considerable mental power into it. He relied on the power of the magic circle to detect these fluctuations and distinguish the differences in order to find the real owner.
But what confuses him is that these three energy fields seem to be measured, and the intensity of the fluctuations is almost the same, leaving him without a clue.
"As expected, I came prepared."
Ian couldn't help but sigh.
"What, can't you tell the difference?" Jasmine asked.
Ian nodded: "Yes, they are all continuous energy fields of similar intensity. It has been six minutes and there is no sign of calming down... But, wait!"
He suddenly became silent and his eyes lost focus at the same time.
A weak and short-lived energy wave suddenly erupted about 1,000 yards southwest of the Luimu Church. Unlike the powerful wave that could only be caused by offensive positive energy magic or fighting skills at the beginning, this time it disappeared in a flash.
The energy field is more like a burst of negative energy magic, secretive and short-lived. If he did not rely on magic crystals, magic items that increase mental power, he would not have been able to discover it, let alone other awakened people in this area.
I have to say that the timing and strategies chosen by the Hand of Justice are very good.
"Jasmine, do you still remember where the conflict between our families was?" Ian suddenly asked an unrelated question.
Although Jasmine was puzzled, she pointed in a direction, which was exactly where Ian discovered the new energy field.
"Sure enough, they are making false claims in the east and attacking in the west." Ian retracted his hand and said excitedly.
"Have you discovered it?" Jasmine saw this and knew that Ian must have discovered the traces of the Hand of Justice, otherwise he would not have said such a thing.
"Hmm. I just discovered a new energy field. It lasted for about ten seconds and then disappeared. I guess this is what the previous energy fluctuations were trying to cover up."
Jasmine didn't believe it immediately after hearing this, but continued to ask: "What's the reason?"
Ian's train of thought was not blocked at all, and he immediately said: "First, the new outbreak

The energy field is at the place where the two families fought over before, which is very suspicious. Secondly, don’t you think the sudden burst of energy field is more like some kind of deliberate? It is evenly distributed in the three directions of our station.
, or broke out at the same time, this provocative battle is more like deliberately luring us over. Think about it, have the people from the Inquisition and the Royal Family taken the bait? If we had not fallen out with the Royal Family, we would definitely be one of them now.
member.
The combination of these two points makes it difficult not to suspect that all this is not done by the Hand of Justice to attract our attention and then secretly seize the treasure. I have written down the specific location. How about it, Miss Phoenix, do you want to come with me?
Let’s take a gamble? If the bet is right, we will really have no worries about food and drink, and we can win all the way to the talented person. If we lose the bet, it will just be a waste of a night.”
Jasmine's bow and arrow are a sharp weapon against knights, especially when the enemy is overt and we are hidden. With her, Ian's chance of success will increase by at least 30%, so he spared no effort to invite the other party to act with him.
"What should we do here?" Jasmine asked instead of answering him.
In response to this, Ian patted the magic crystal and said confidently: "With it hosting the magic circle, no one can invade. Besides, our current task is to stick to the camp. As long as we go back quickly, no one can find it, right?"
"That's no problem, Master Hyde!"
"Hey, let's go then!"
The two walked out from behind the tent without disturbing anyone, but they also did not notice a pair of eyes staring at them in the dark night.
Relying on the guidance of their spiritual power, they quickly shuttled through the darkness, just like the drow who were born to adapt to the darkness. The ruined walls and thick dead leaves did not cause them any trouble.
The place where they stopped was a pile of ruins. According to Ian's induction, the brief burst of energy field was here.
The two people's spiritual power permeated the past, and no life forms were found among this piece of wood and bricks. This means that there is no ambush here, or they have arrived too late.
"It seems they have already entered." Jasmine regained her mental strength.
"What do you think is causing this fluctuation?" Ian passed on his mental power perception to Jasmine, hoping that this noble lady would be more knowledgeable than him.
But the perception of the awakened person is inherently vague. Even if there is a magic crystal to increase it, it cannot be too detailed. Therefore, Jasmine had no idea and just casually said: "Maybe it's a magic lock."
The only race in the main plane that likes to build treasures is the dragon race that once dominated the continent of Geos. The magic lock is also an original creation of this race.
Different from the elf system that uses various characters as the basis of magic arrays, the magic array of the dragon family uses various intuitive natural forces as the medium for casting spells, such as the blazing sun, the bright moon, the Titan Peak, etc. These existences are related to the natural forces of the world.
It is inherently more powerful than the true meaning of the characters created for each race, so the dragon magic based on these powers is naturally the best in the world.
Magic lock is a defensive magic, but it has no lethality. It will only connect the caster's mind when a thief breaks in, and lock the door at the same time.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
It makes it impossible for anyone to get in or out, including the person with the key. The access will not be opened until the caster removes the magic. And its power is based on the bright moon. The bright moon is immortal and the magic is endless, so the caster does not have to worry about charging.
A question of performance.
This can be considered one of the great contributions made by the Dragon Clan to the prosperity of magic.
This kind of infinitely rechargeable magic circle-like magic naturally caused headaches for thieves of countless races, and it soon spread among the major high-level wizard groups and was used to strengthen their magic towers or laboratories.
After all, there were not many thieves of various races in that era, especially goblins and drow.
What is shocking is that when this magic spread to the hands of human wizards one day countless years later, the magic lock known as "nothing is locked" was quickly cracked by a human wizard, and in the following three thousand years, the dragon clan
The top ten treasures in the territory were stolen one after another. The Dragon Clan immediately asked the high-ranking people in the clan to conduct divination, and pointed the finger at the rising human race. The arrogant Dragon Clan did not have any communication and immediately declared an all-out war with the human race. It was known in history as "the first
The Battle of Guevara".
Back to the topic, the magic lock is a high-end magic that cannot be deployed by non-domain people, and Ian and the others are not qualified to know how to crack it, but obviously, the two of them do not believe that this is the fluctuation caused by the magic lock being cracked - after all, that
Too high-end.
However, wherever the breeze passes, there must be traces. Ian soon found a floor that was too clean. Looking at the desolate weeds and broken bricks around him, he had the answer in his mind.
He walked over quickly, inserted a hunter's dagger into the gap between the floor tiles, and then pried it off little by little. The bricks were loose as expected. Soon the floor tiles were completely taken out, revealing the dark hole.
"Sure enough." He turned back and waved to Jasmine and said with a proud smile, "Look, there is no problem with my reasoning... The tunnels below are all made of obsidian. No wonder we can't find any abnormalities when we scan them with our mental power. It's so big.
Handwriting."
Jasmine stretched out her hand and felt the cool breeze blowing gently across the back of her hand. She knew there was a vent in the corridor, so she took out her bow and arrow and looked at Ian: "Are you going down, Master Hyde?"
Ian nodded without thinking much and said: "Of course, if there is another exit, obsidian blocks mental power, we just need to pay attention to the distance and be alert." After that, he jumped down first.
The corridor was not high, almost 3 yards, so he stepped aside a little and said to the top: "Just jump, pay attention to the buffer."
Then there was a muffled sound and Jasmine was already in front of her.
The two of them were rarely so close, so that Ian could smell the fragrance of each other, which made him a little uncomfortable, so he quietly took two steps back, turned his back and pointed to the other side where the breeze was blowing: "
Let’s go, Raiders of the Lost Ark is officially launched!”
After saying that, the two of them quietly moved towards the other end. Because they could not expand their mental power, the knight's perception here was much stronger than that of the wizard. Therefore, the two of them had to move forward cautiously, not daring to speak except for breathing.
Any sound.
On the ground, a wizard with his entire body hidden under a black cloak appeared at the entrance of the cave the two had just left, and soon jumped into it and disappeared.
