Although after coming out of the mountain abyss, there is an endless mountain snowfield, but compared to the deep and precipitous abyss, the snowfield with many pine needles in front of us is obviously more comfortable and more relaxing.

Be more at ease.

After walking out of the mountain abyss, although there were still a few hours until dark, the team did not go out of the mountain immediately. Instead, under the leadership of Balak, who was familiar with the terrain, they found a mountain col that could shelter from the wind and suitable for camping, and prepared to do so here.

Set up camp and rest for one night before continuing our journey tomorrow.

"Aren't you ready to take action now?" Standing on the edge of the snow hill on one side of the mountain col, Leo looked at the fleeing team setting up camp below and couldn't help but ask Su who was standing aside.

"It's not time yet." Su said very calmly.

Leo didn't ask for more details. He turned to look at the abyss that looked like a heavenly gate from which he came out before, and said, "That Barak must not be an ordinary person."

Su Wenyan also turned to look at the exit, nodded, and said: "He may be a Familia who has not inspired his bloodline, but has stimulated his abilities. He just doesn't know who the Familia is."

The reason why Leo and Su said this was because they found that the exit of the abyss they just walked through was not simple. The exit was so huge and obvious that even if they were standing far away, they could see where the exit was.

The mountain peak seemed to be split open, with a straight crack formed in the middle.

It stands to reason that anyone who sees this magical scenery should be curious and want to go forward to find out. In this case, the location of this abyss will definitely spread and be known to others, and this can be climbed over

The secret passages in the Dibia Mountains will naturally become common knowledge.

But in fact, no one except Balak knew about this secret passage before Balak led everyone through it today, and the reason for this was entirely due to the influence of the remains of the Eagle God in the abyss.

At the moment when they walked out of the abyss, the two people who had escaped from the suppression of the Eagle God felt that their imprisoned power was instantly restored. At the same time, they also discovered that an invisible force was penetrating their hearts and their brains.

and their souls, causing them to intentionally or unintentionally forget the experience of just walking through the abyss, and actively ignore such an obvious entrance to the abyss.

Leo, who possesses the will of a ninth-level psyker, and Su, who possesses the divinity of the God of Darkness, can resist this invisible influence on the mind and soul, but for ordinary people, it is obviously impossible to resist the effect of this power.

Under the influence of power, they will gradually forget the location of this secret passage, and even forget that such a secret passage exists. This should be the main reason why the existence of such a secret passage has not been spread to the outside world so far.

However, Barak, an ordinary person, was able to discover this secret passage and remember its location without being affected by the power here. More importantly, Barak had traveled through this abyss secret passage many times and had never encountered it before.

What a danger, it can be seen that Barak is not as ordinary as he seems on the surface.

However, even though Barak had a shocking secret, Leo and Su were just curious and had no intention of taking any further action.

"He should take action tonight." Su suddenly said.

"What do I need to do?" Leo asked calmly.

Su looked at Leo and said: "Same as what the Web Weaver asked you to do, you only need to clear out all the Black Forest Familia and Ancient Beasts near the camp. As for the war between me and him, outsiders cannot interfere.

"

"No problem." Leo responded.

Seeing Leo's calm and indifferent look, Su frowned and immediately reminded: "If you have such a disapproving attitude, you may die tonight, because the Black Forest Familia and Ancient Beasts that will appear tonight will

It far exceeds the number you have seen before, and there are some Familia with real power among them. I don’t want to fail in the end because of you.”

Leo did not become nervous because of Su's reminder. He still said calmly: "Don't worry, I know exactly what I should do."

Although Su was still very worried about Leo's mentality, she couldn't say anything else. Fortunately, she still had some reliable back-ups. Even if there were no problems with Leo, these back-ups would be enough for her to accomplish her goal.

.

Therefore, Su did not further discuss the cooperation details with Leo, and walked directly into the shadow of a pine needle forest and disappeared.

Seeing Su leaving, Leo was not idle. After observing the surrounding terrain, he quickly moved towards one of the key terrains.

Although in Leo's eyes, as long as the psychic level of the coming Black Forest Familia and monsters does not exceed his, they will not bring him any danger, but he will not take it lightly because of this, but will treat it as if it is a life and death battle.

Let's take a look at tonight's battle.

Through his rich experience in positional warfare, Leo quickly found more than a dozen key points for attack in the area around the refugee team's camp. Basically, as long as someone tries to attack the camp, they will inevitably need to pass through these dozen key points, so

He decided to place a large number of traps in these areas.

The traps Leo set were not the kind of instant-kill attack traps, but the riot runes and magic circles he learned from the dream world. In order to avoid accidentally injuring the patrolling hunters, he slightly modified the conditions for setting off the magic traps.

After a while, it is no longer triggered by touch, but needs to sense the psychic reaction at close range.

In addition to magic traps, Leo also arranged some relatively primitive hunting traps and alarm traps in other secondary areas, so that he could detect them immediately when the enemy sneaked in from this direction.

After setting up the trap, the sky gradually darkened. Although it was still early, the sun was blocked by the mountains, causing the area around the refugee camp to enter night early.

Leo carefully checked the traps he had laid before to make sure there were no mistakes, and then began to sort out the combat items he needed to use. After drinking two bottles of potions to restore spiritual energy, he found a place where he could watch the entire area.

The hills of the area are waiting for the battle to begin.

The first battle took place much earlier than Leo expected. Just when the sky had just darkened and the camp fires started to be lit, the trap Leo had set up in a secondary area was triggered, and instead of one or two people setting off, two people set off.

More than a dozen hunting traps were triggered continuously.

In order to cope with the subsequent battle, Leo did not use witchcraft, but ran directly towards the area where the trap was triggered. Soon he came to the secondary area where the trap was triggered.

However, there are no enemies here for him to deal with now, because all the intruders who triggered the trap have died under the sharp wooden thorns of the trap mechanism, and their bodies are supported by these wooden thorns, maintaining their original appearance at the moment of death.

Posture and expression.

Leo didn't know whether these intruders belonged to the Familia or monsters, because they were all big rats walking upright, and they all wore wallets on their bodies and held various cold weapons in their hands.

It looks like an intelligent race that is different from humans.

"These are rat people, a foreign race that should have been extinct long ago." At this time, a black shadow of Su suddenly appeared next to Leo. She looked at the upright rats and said.

"Is this the rat man?" Leo quickly thought of the rat man mentioned in some fairy tales. Because the mention of the rat man in those stories was only mentioned briefly, and because it was a fairy tale, he did not think of this alien race.

Su looked at these dead rat people and asked Leo, "Can you handle it?"

"No problem." Leo responded simply, and ignored Su. Instead, he walked to the rat man's body, dug out the rat man's tail and eyeballs, and put them away, and then put away the weapons on the rat man's body.

Pick it up and find what you can use.

At this time, the shadow created by Su using his innate ability also dissipated, and just when it was about to completely dissipate, Leo suddenly turned around, raised his hand towards the place where Su was before, and quickly drew a magic rune.

The dark spiritual energy remaining in the air instantly gathered in his hands, wrapped in the power of shadow created by his bloodline, and he quickly analyzed the mystery of its power.

"Shadow clone." It was as if the power of shadow produced by the bloodline possessed Su's innate ability. Almost as soon as he analyzed Su's dark spiritual energy, a new one was quickly created in Leo's mind.

The magic of shadows.·

"Here we go again!" Before Leo had time to get familiar with the new shadow witchcraft he learned from Su, the trap he set was set off again, but this time a trap with riot runes was triggered.

"Roar!" Almost at the same time that Leo felt the trap being triggered, a violent roar came from the direction of the trap, and then he saw the trees in that direction falling down one by one, and the accumulation on the ground.

The snow also flew up due to the impact of some force, forming snow and fog all over the sky.

Not to mention Leo, even the people in the refugee camp noticed such a big movement. It was obvious that the ordinary people in the camp were frightened by such a big movement. Panic spread in the camp, and many people gathered in the camp.

At the entrance of the camp, it seemed that they wanted to go out to check the situation.

However, Barak immediately stopped these people's actions. Not only did he not let these people leave the camp, he did not even send out hunters. Instead, he asked everyone to strengthen the guardrails around the camp, loosen and move the tents that had been fixed.

He determined the location so that all the tents could take care of each other. Then he asked the hunters to find existing materials to set up a large number of traps, which could play a defensive role when someone attacked the camp.

However, anyone who is a little smarter knows that if an unknown object that can make such a big noise really comes to attack the camp, it will be impossible to resist it with the current defense facilities in the camp. These arrangements are at best just to seek a psychological

Just comfort.

However, this wave of frightening movement in the camp soon ended, and the flying snowflakes fell to the ground again.

Leo did not go there directly to check the situation, but stood there and used the witchcraft shadow clone he had just obtained.

I saw that at the moment Leo finished casting the spell, the shadow on the ground beside him suddenly swelled up like a bubble, and then a vague shadow struggled to rise from the ground, and soon it

A human form was condensed.

Subsequently, driven by Leo's will, the shadow clone disappeared from the place in an instant and moved to the distant area where the big movement just occurred. Leo and the shadow clone completely shared vision and hearing, and they immediately became one.

The messy scene was visible before his eyes.

After a rough count, there were more than a dozen corpses of various sizes lying on the ground. Leo could only identify three types of Familia and one kind of monster. The three Familia were Dustin Hound, Light Cocoon, and Son of the Hill.

The monster is a human scorpion.

Neither the Familia nor the monsters are recorded in the books in the world of Velen. The reason why Leo knows them is entirely because the information fragments of the Web Weaver contain a large amount of information about the Familia and monsters of the Black Forest.

It's a pity that this information is not detailed. It only tells Leo the value of some organs of these Familia and monsters. As for the formation and origin of these Familia, these fragments of information do not mention it. The only thing Leo can be sure of is the Son of the Hill and Ma

The King of the Hill believed in by the Kingdom of Reese has no connection at all, it's just that the names sound like they are related.

Leo stepped forward and quickly harvested valuable things from these corpses. He also looked at the signs of damage around them and the scars on the corpses, and was basically able to deduce what happened not long ago.

Obviously, from the roars made by the Son of the Hill just now, judging from the scene, the Son of the Hill must have accidentally stepped on the riot rune trap that Leo had arranged in advance, and was hit by the riot rune, thus triggering

The strongest riot in the heart of the Son of the Hill. The Son of the Hill, who lost his mind, immediately attacked all movable objects around him. In the end, he killed many Familia and monsters in the Black Forest, and was also killed by the surviving Familia and monsters.

They were surrounded and killed, but the remaining Familia and monsters who were still alive seemed to be worried that there were other traps in the forest, so they stayed away and did not dare to get even closer.

While harvesting valuable things from these families and monsters, Leo also used the spiritual net to explore the surrounding situation, and soon discovered several monsters that looked like giant arthropods hiding in the snow, but

Judging from the footprints in the snow beside them, it was obvious that they were not the only survivors, but the other survivors had obviously entered that state between reality and reality.

Now that the enemy has been discovered, Leo naturally has no intention of letting it go. He controls the shadow clone to blend directly into the dark shadow and quickly moves towards the hiding monsters before they realize that the enemy is approaching.

At that time, several shadow daggers made with the power of shadow were directly inserted into the vital parts of these monsters.

These arthropod-like monsters died without any resistance under the assassination of the shadow dagger, and their corpses were not preserved as well as the corpses they had seen before. Instead, they automatically collapsed and disappeared, leaving only
