It was determined that the young girl monster entered here from the Dragon City and then rushed to the mountain to cause trouble. Karl's strategy was adjusted accordingly.
He didn't find any clues when he was observing in Dragon City before. In fact, it was because Master Gavin took countermeasures in the dream world, which led him to misunderstand that "nothing happened".
If you think about it from this aspect, why did the little monster persecute the creatures in the shadow world and then exile them outside the shadow world?
This must be because the shadow creatures will hinder its movements.
Shadow world creatures have existed here for a long time, so the possibility of these creatures rashly entering the destination of the young girl monster is very low. The most likely possibility is that some arrangement of the young girl monster in the shadow world will be affected by these guys.
Perhaps the activities of creatures from the Shadow Realm will destroy the ritual, or perhaps its layout does not allow such living creatures to appear there.
In short, things will be much easier to handle if this is the case.
So without saying a word, Carl Fei returned to his original city.
The main reason why he ignored the mountain in front of him and chose to return to the city was because of Master Gavin.
Because of the large-scale spell he launched in the dream world, the original natural landscape or things on the mountain had been destroyed or sunk into the mud inside the mountain. It would be a bit fanciful to find the layout of the young monster in such a scene.
Therefore, compared with this severely damaged situation, the well-protected streets in the city are more suitable for exploration.
At least inside Dragon City, Na and the little girl monster really drove away a group of shadow creatures.
In this way, after spending exactly the same time as when he left the city, Karl once again arrived at the location where he had just appeared in the Shadow Realm. After walking out of the hall with the Pillar of Trial, he would stand directly on the streets of Dragon City.
There is no way to return to the previous place.
At least within the scope of Karl's ability, this is an ironclad fact.
Referring to the fact that Carl and Naiya entered the shadow world together and appeared in the same place, he also believed that the monster girl appeared here.
The next step is to use the position under your feet as a starting point to explore the surrounding areas where this guy may have tampered with.
How to say...
This job is quite difficult.
First of all, the rules of light and shadow in the shadow world are opposite to those outside, which makes it easy for him to overlook some details that may hide things.
For example, if you are chasing a person in the real world, when passing a dark corner, the pursuer will inevitably look at him subconsciously.
But in the shadow world, this is completely different.
The dark corners of the real world happen to be where light shines in. Who would sit idle and stare at the sun and ponder?
People in the secret room will not pay attention to the light bulb above their heads!
In the same way, this is the primary problem Carl faces now.
But even so, giving up is impossible.
Because he knew that this matter was of great importance and would be his last curtain call before retirement, he was now full of energy in searching here carefully.
Karl searched all the hawker stalls and inconspicuous nooks and crannies on the side of the street without missing a single one. He also did not miss any of the things like breaking into houses or shops.
After more than twenty minutes of intensive exploration, Carl's efforts finally paid off.
Two streets away from the starting point of entering the Dragon City Film World, he saw the shadows of many dragon people gathered in the middle of a market, standing shoulder to shoulder as if they were discussing something interesting.
This is it.
Subconsciously, Karl made this judgment.
After all, there is a gap in time between the shadow world and the outside world. After Master Gavin took care of the shadow beasts, it was time for the residents of Dragon City who had nothing to do during this period to come over and add the following words.
Creatures from the shadow world enter the real world, and the city lord takes it upon himself to protect the safety of residents.
This is undoubtedly the greatest possibility of attracting people here.
Moreover, close to the starting point of entering the Shadow Realm, there is also a place where abnormal citizens gather, but this is actually the only place.
After identifying the target, Karl immediately began to investigate the market.
On the surface, it looks like a seafood market selling fresh fish.
Except for the fish stalls that occupy more than half of the shops, the rest mostly sell food such as shellfish or shrimps and crabs. At best, they are small stalls that process raw fish.
And it may be because of the shadow creatures that appeared not long ago. There are several shops here with no one at all. It must be that the boss who escaped without a trace has not dared to come back.
"Come and see..."
Facing this chaotic scene, Karl closed his eyes directly, and then began to expand his spiritual awareness to a great extent.
Such a complex environment is no longer suitable for the method just now. It would be too troublesome for him to go through the fish baskets one by one.
In this way, the range of perception gradually expanded starting from himself. When Karl's perception completely enveloped the entire market, an uncoordinated object appeared there.
It contains magical elements with strange properties, and is also full of strong malice.
"I still found it."
With a smile symbolizing victory on his lips, Karl immediately walked over there.
This is a basket made of woven branches, which contains some dead and not very fresh fish and shrimp carcasses.
Not paying any attention to these messy and dirty things, Karl used his psychic powers as protection and directly poked his arm in.
Soon, he touched a relatively stiff thing.
"It's you!"
After grabbing this thing from the fish basket, Carl's right eyelid couldn't help but twitch.
This is a stone sculpture that has been treated with evil magic. It depicts a strange and strange creature.
The rolled-up tentacles serve as the head, and in the center there is a ferocious mouth studded with layered sharp teeth. Other than that, it has no eyes, no nose, and no ears. It is really a complete monster shape.
The body part of the statue is the darkness hidden under the robe. Apart from knowing that this thing can walk upright, I have no idea what kind of terrifying existence is inside.
Looking at this statue with a strong Cthulhu style, Carl became angry.
In such an important matter, Naiya, a guy who deserves a beating, actually wants to disgust him!
Without saying a word, Karl's remaining hand was raised in the air, and his five fingers were ready to shine brightly on someone.
"Come back to me!"
There was a roar full of anger, and the black magic in the air came from nowhere and densely gathered in front of Karl.
