The cultists had been away from their stronghold for some time, but this was not a big problem for Fang Zheng. Through the keen sense of the Zerg, he quickly smelled the faint smell of sulfur remaining in the air. And followed

The smell pursued them all the way, and it didn't take much effort for Fang Zheng and Fina to find the remaining traces of the cultists.

This is actually not difficult. According to Knight Conan, excluding the cavalry patrolling outside, there are a total of thirty Templar warriors in the entire stronghold, which is not a small number. And the cultists did not kill them all, but

It would be impossible to capture him and leave without leaving any traces with so many people acting together.

Therefore, it didn't take much time for Fang Zheng and Fina to determine the direction in which the cultists left, and then followed them all the way.

Fang Zheng is mainly responsible for tracking, and Fina is not idle either. Although this rookie priest is a bit dogmatic, the advantage of dogmatism is that at least everyone knows what the book teaches. Therefore, along the way, Fina is responsible for detecting the possible residues of the other party.

Magic mark. According to Fina, in order to avoid being discovered, cultists often release warning marks where they pass by. This is a very simple spell. As long as someone passes through the mark, the releaser will immediately be affected by it.

warn.

Because this spell is very convenient and lasts only half an hour, it has become a signature spell used by many spellcasters to warn. As a priest, Fina has certainly learned to use this spell.

And how to detect and sense it. At the moment, she is responsible for analyzing and finding the mark to prevent Fang Zheng from running into it and activating the alarm, which would cause trouble.

So the next step was that Fang Zheng was responsible for tracking down the remaining traces of the cultists, while Fina followed him, guarding the surroundings and searching for magic marks. The cooperation between the two parties was pretty good, and what made Fang Zheng even more interesting was that this trainee priest

Although she looks soft and frail, her physical fitness is excellent. It has been more than half a day since they set off from the stronghold, and even the mountains have been climbed, and Fina beside him is still faceless.

Hong was out of breath and seemed to be at ease.

Fang Zheng himself has a Zerg physique, so of course he has no concerns about physical strength. However, the trainee priest actually has such a physique, which really surprises him. However, when he thought about it, people in this world seemed to be exercising the power of the stars.

It’s not surprising that he came to temper his body.

Of course, this also has disadvantages. Just like Stone and Malte, they usually seem to be invincible, but they are immediately defeated by a DEBUFF thrown by the Son of Chaos...

Perhaps the cultists felt inflated after defeating the stronghold, or perhaps they had other important things to do. Therefore, they had no intention of covering up their traces along the way, and with Fina beside them responsible for guarding the magic marks, Fang Zheng used

The search speed was also much faster. Finally, the hard work paid off, and at dusk, Fina finally made a new discovery.

"There are fluctuations of magic marks ahead, Mr. Founder!"

"Magic mark?"

Hearing Fina's warning, Fang Zheng stopped hurriedly, and he was also happy in his heart. Because according to Fina, the magic mark lasts for half an hour. They had not seen the magic mark along the way before, although they did not

It is ruled out that those cultists are not alert, but it is more likely that the maintenance time of the magic mark has expired, so the spell effect disappears. If this is the case, it means that there is still a long distance between them and the other party, and now there is a magic mark.

This means that Fang Zheng and Fina have closed the distance with those cultists, and the distance between the two parties should not exceed half an hour.

"Is there any way?"

Hearing Fang Zheng's question, Fina nodded confidently.

"Of course, I can temporarily block the power of the magic mark. Although I can only last for about ten seconds, I think it should be enough."

The display form of the magic mark is linear rather than circular, which means that it is more like a transparent wall formed by magic. As long as someone passes through the wall, it will be discovered. Because of this, the magic mark is difficult to

was bypassed and thus used for tracking and warning.

But for spell casters, there are naturally ways to deal with it.

Fang Zheng looked at the priest girl beside him, and saw Fina taking two steps forward, staring at the empty air in front of her, then she took a gentle breath, and then raised the scepter in her hand.

This is something that Fina has been holding in her hand. It is about as long as a person's forearm. It is silver-white in color and is engraved with strange patterns and characters. The top of the scepter is inlaid with a round white crystal.

Fang Zheng didn't know if this was the standard equipment of a priest, but judging from Fina's appearance, it seemed like it was the case.

"Holy light of order, please give me the power to hide the truth!"

While chanting in a low voice, Fina raised the scepter in her hand and tapped the air in front of her. Soon, Fang Zheng saw a white beam of light shooting out from the top of the scepter and hitting the air.

Immediately afterwards, the air in front of him suddenly began to produce ripples like pool water, and then a strange wall appeared in front of Fang Zheng.

It showed a transparent aqua color as a whole, with mysterious runes flashing on it. These runes were combined together to form a wall that was more than ten centimeters thick and stretched out, as if a tall city wall was blocking the two people.

In front of me. But although this city wall looks tall, it is not thick at all. It looks more like a set for a play.

Under the beam of the scepter in Fina's hand, the originally shining wall gradually became dim. Soon, Fang Zheng watched the light of the suspended runes extinguish one by one. Then, the originally aqua blue walls

The barrier turned gray.

"Now, Mr. Fangzheng!"

"good."

Hearing Fina's words, Fang Zheng nodded, then he looked up at the barrier in front of him, and then walked in.

Crossing the entire barrier was just a blink of an eye for Fang Zheng. What surprised him was that he had clearly entered the barrier, but he didn't feel anything at all. Even with the keen senses given to him by the Zerg, he didn't notice any movement.

.This made Fang Zheng even more curious and dignified about the magic in this world.

It seems that I have to find a way to find out what is going on with the magic in this world.

"strangeness………"

Just when Fang Zheng was thinking about his future plans, Fina also passed through the barrier. However, there was no excitement on Fina's face at this moment. On the contrary, she turned her head and looked at the person with doubts on her face.

road barrier.

"What's wrong? Miss Fina?"

Looking at Fina's puzzled expression, Fang Zheng also asked in time. Although the other party was not a mage, he was still a spell caster. It would be good to get a little more information from her. Fina didn't think much about it.

What, he said quickly.

"Just now, Lord Knight Conan said that the other party must have a Destruction Mage."

"Yes, he said that."

"But it's strange...I don't feel the breath of hell on this magic mark..."

"In other words, the other party still has a spell caster?"

Hearing Fina's answer, Fang Zheng was stunned for a moment, and then he quickly thought of something.

"Could it be a necromancer or a lich? They have always been very close to the cultists..."

"This is different, Mr. Founder. You are not a spell caster, and you may not understand this situation. Although many professions can cast spells, there will definitely be residual breath in the spells when they cast them. Just like the Destruction Mage, there will be a certain amount of breath left in the spells when he casts them.

There will be the breath of hell, and the spells released by necromancers and lichs will be mixed with the breath of death. Even the divine spells released by our priests and bishops will have similar sacred breath contained in them. But the magic just now

The breath of the mark is not evil, nor does it have the feeling of death and destruction. It gives me a very sophisticated feeling, more like..."

"More like?"

This time Fina hesitated for a while before answering in a low voice.

"It's more like the spells released by the mages of the Order School... Moreover, the opponent seems to be of a high level..."

"Approximately how many levels are there?"

"Judging from the power of the magic mark, it is at least an elite level."

"I see."

Hearing Fina's answer, Fang Zheng nodded. He also had a good idea of ​​his own strength. Before traveling to "Edge of Tomorrow", according to Shi Dong, his usual strength should be around the middle of the elite. And now.

During the battle in Shadow Canyon, Fang Zheng could be sure that if he fought with all his strength, the ordinary Templars were no match for him. Even against Stone and Marte, he was still capable of fighting. If he activated the soul stone, the two of them would be able to fight.

He must die. As for the Lich Lord, Fang Zheng felt that he could only fight with him by activating the soul stone. Of course, the outcome of the battle was not certain.

Now, Fang Zheng has the ability to time, and his physique has also been greatly enhanced, which means that he already has the power of the elite peak. If he activates the skills of the soul stone, he will definitely be able to enter the Grand Master, and activating the soul stone will be perfect.

Legend has not escaped. This is why Fang Zheng volunteered to come here to track those cultists. As long as there are no strong men at the level of the Lich Lord among the opponents, logically speaking, taking care of these guys by himself is the same as taking care of his grandson.

Moreover, Fang Zheng also wanted to try the performance of time ability in actual combat.

"Let's move on."

Although he was a little curious about the emergence of a mage from the Order School among the cultists, Fang Zheng didn't think much about it. Instead, Fina had a solemn look on her face, not knowing what she was thinking.

Next, the two of them passed through the barrier of magic marks several times, and finally, they stopped in front of a forest.

The reason is simple. This time...even Fina can't do anything.

"No, there are very powerful illusion wards and alarm wards set up in this forest."

After some attempts, Fina had no choice but to tell Fang Zheng the very bad news.

"I tried to block it, but these enchantments are interlocking. As long as there is a problem with one enchantment, the other enchantments will be activated immediately and cause a chain reaction... I think this should be the camp of the cultists.

."

"It seems they do have a problem..."

After hearing Fina's report, Fang Zheng also frowned. If there was no problem, how could these cultists set up such a complicated thing with such fanfare?

No matter what, there must be a ghost inside!

But... Fang Zheng cannot enter this forest at all. Although he can use time ability to accelerate, according to Fina, those barriers will react immediately as soon as traces are detected. Fang Zheng's ability does not involve space, so

As long as he enters the barrier, the most he can do is delay the barrier's reaction time.

"Damn it..."

Through the Zerg's life sensor, Fang Zheng could clearly feel that there were indeed several life reactions deep in the forest. It seemed that they were cultists and prisoners. However, the dense forest blocked his sight, so that Fang Zheng

No matter how good your eyesight is, it is impossible to see what the other person is doing.

If there was a drone doing aerial reconnaissance... hmm?

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng's eyes suddenly lit up.

Didn't he produce a summoning soul stone in ten consecutive rounds before? If he remembered correctly, it should also be an angel.
Chapter completed!
