Chapter 231 Preparation and Testing
"Go in." Lucian caught a player again, and threw the dog-headed alien player into the red line just like he did with the birdman.
However, this time Lucian did not deliberately release his "malice", but simply attached his mental power to the player, observing the player like a spectator.
The panicked kobold stumbled forward, and when he passed a corner, he subconsciously ran in one direction.
That was the direction away from the core of the Mondoc family mansion.
When this kobold stumbled out to escape, he did not encounter attacks from other powerful players like the birdman before. However, every time he faced a choice, he would choose a path away from Mondoc. The road to the family mansion.
"Alas..." Lu Xian, who had been silently observing the kobold according to the mental power mark, sighed inwardly. Then he sneaked into the shadow space and quickly came to the side of the kobold, and then cut the kobold with a moon blade. A kobold player immediately bowed his head.
"It seems that if there is no obvious hostility or malice, the countermeasures may be relatively mild, but the result is still the same, that is, it cannot violate its core bottom line, which is close to the core of the Mondoc family mansion. area……"
Lucian glanced at the wide-eyed kobold expressionlessly, and casually cleaned away the mental mark that had previously been attached to it.
He was quite satisfied with the results of tonight's test, but now Lucian wanted to try one last experiment.
He gently closed his eyes and quickly adjusted his mental state to the peak through breathing. Then Lucian opened his eyes again, and then the mental pressure belonging to the peak of a first-level wizard was released without any disguise.
Different from the previous concealment where the mental power was used as tentacles, Lucian's aura burst out this time without any cover. The mental power was quickly swept in other directions with him as the center. Even players who were not good at detecting could easily feel the aura emanating from it. .
The outburst of momentum in this situation is a kind of provocation to other players, a kind of demonstration that declares sovereignty.
So the moment Lucian exploded with momentum, he felt the attention of some powerful players around him.
These gazes may be mixed with malice, or they may be mixed with a touch of disdain.
However, Lucian could feel that three of the players began to quickly approach his position with almost no concealment.
"Let's go." Lucian restrained his breath without hesitation, then sneaked into the shadow space and left quickly before these players arrived.
"I can feel their 'malice' towards me, but I don't know whether their other-directed malice will attract the attention of the 'Red Line'." Not far away, on the top of a spire, Lucian silently looked down at the The streets also use their mental power to perceive some special fluctuations that are difficult to observe with the naked eye.
And soon, Lucian looked at the place where he had stayed. He could feel a strong wave of magic erupting there at the moment. It seemed that a strong man had broken out a battle there, and the aftermath of the battle broke out. It seems that this should be caused by multiple first-level wizards at the peak or by powerful second-level wizards.
"Haha... The last test was a complete success." The corners of Lucian's mouth curled up slightly, and then he was covered by the shadow airflow again, got into the shadow interlayer, and moved quickly towards his residence.
…
"Thank you very much for your help..." In front of the temporary camp, Rudy of the Cecilia family bowed to Hercules solemnly.
"When I was wiping out the demon clan, I was too reckless. Not only did I almost die because of my out-of-control talent, but I also almost caused you all to be dragged into the abyss..."
"We just did what we should do." Hercules maintained Roland's usual seriousness on his face and just smiled politely towards Rudy.
"However, I still want to remind Master Rudy that in the following battles, if you are between certainty and uncertainty, it is best to choose a conservative decision. After all, on the battlefield, a teammate who has not performed his role is far less harmful than …”
"I will definitely pay attention!" Rudy's face turned slightly red, as if he was embarrassed by his previous reckless behavior.
Hercules just nodded lightly and said no more. This is also Roland's usual personality, cold-faced, kind-hearted, and not good at words. Only in front of relatively familiar people will he show his unknown side...
"Sister Roland, don't say that about Rudy, haha. I think Rudy is pretty good, at least much better than when I first went to the battlefield!" Rafael laughed and broke the situation on the field. A rather awkward and dull atmosphere.
Hercules glanced at him and didn't say much. On the other hand, Rudy beside him was in a much better mood because of Rafal's change of attitude.
"His blood does not contain any special ingredients. Perhaps what is special is not his bloodline, but his talent..." Hercules silently focused his attention on Rudy, but in his mind He was thinking of some analysis and research on Rudy's blood that he conducted last night using some of the equipment he carried with him. The five brave families... Hercules' eyes flickered slightly, and then he looked at the purple-dressed girl [Sura] who was inside the team and looking at Rafael with a smile.
This is also a "quasi-brave" who has awakened the talent of a hero, but she has been following Rafael, so Hercules is a little restrained.
"It's really troublesome." Hercules muttered in his heart, but he soon regained his composure.
"Okay, the team is about to leave. Master Rudy, if you still want to continue communicating, you can go aside and don't block the entrance of the camp. This will make it inconvenient for other knights to queue in and out."
Then, Hercules glanced at Rafael again, "Raphael, come here after you finish talking. We are not far away from the target Demon Nest now, so I need you as the reconnaissance captain to play your role!"
"Yes, I promise to complete the mission, Captain Roland!" Rafael saluted with a playful smile, causing Hercules to quietly clenched his fists.
However, he did not say anything, but nodded slightly, and then looked at a strong knight standing aside, "Forgan, you lead a small team to assist Rafael in completing this work."
"Yes!" Fulgan glanced at Rafael indifferently, but there was an imperceptible coldness in his eyes.
He had a personal grudge against Rafael. Although it was covered up for some reasons before, fortunately, he has now discovered the real culprit who killed his sister, and now, he seems to have an excellent opportunity.
"Captain... I can go there alone..." Rafael looked at Fulgen with a simple and honest smile, but felt a little reluctant in his heart.
"This is an order!" Hercules sneered in his heart, but he still showed a business-like attitude, "Fulgrim is one of the best knights under my command. With his help, even if you encounter a small group of demons, The clan team also has a high probability of being able to escape intact.”
"Captain, don't worry, I will definitely protect Master Rafael." Fulgen also quickly expressed his attitude, but his slightly urgent voice still made Rafael's heart tremble slightly.
He opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't dare to say anything. After all, Roland and Sura couldn't let Roland and Sura know about some of the things he did behind his back...
"I understand, Sister Roland." Rafael could only lower his head helplessly in the end.
"Well, go ahead." Hercules watched the team leave indifferently.
"I don't know if this kind of hatred from the characters in the plot will attract the attention of Red Line, or will it trigger Rafal's other vigilance?"
Hercules sneered in his heart. As a "reincarnation", he naturally knew the secret relationships between many characters, including the cause of the death of Fulgen's sister.
Because in his first reincarnation, the married young woman he played played a disgraceful role in this time.
And the person in charge behind this is naturally the playboy Rafael.
According to the plot, Fulgrim will probably learn the truth two months after returning to the Trujillo family after the end of this crusade. At that time, Rafael has become one of the war heroes in the crusade against the demons, and He was not a big shot that he could deal with directly. In the end, Fulgrim chose assassination and became the key villain in promoting Rafael's romance with another female character.
But this time, Fulgen knew the truth early.
It was a key clue that Hercules accidentally revealed during his communication with Fulgen as "Roland". Fulgen himself combined some of the information he had and pieced together the truth of the matter in advance.
"The plot and characters are all in line with the direction of the plot. The only difference is the time..." Hercules' expression was calm and serious. He looked at the investigation team that had become a few black spots at this time, and silently felt for Fulgen in his heart. come on.
If we can really take the opportunity to kill Rafael, the guy who pretends to be the master of the dream, it will definitely have a certain vigilance effect on other players, right?
Even then, they will become a help in finding the truth...
Thinking of this, the corners of Hercules' lips slightly raised, and then he drew out his knight's sword, "The first squadron dispersed the alert in the form of small groups. Everyone slow down the marching speed and keep the formation moving forward! Be alert for sneak attacks from the demons!"
"Yes, leader!"
Hercules smiled. As the leader of the Knights, he wanted to leave enough time and space for Fulgrim's revenge.
