Barrett, who found that the situation was wrong, immediately frowned: "Is there really a problem?" ”

Then came Mara. A roar from the bottom of the branch: "Damn it! Those bastards used an extremely harsh spice blend. No, it's not just spices, it's sneeze powder. My little Bush, good girl! Silence hits ......"

"It looks like we can't find any suitable clues here." In fact, after discovering that the traces of his previous appearance had been so cleanly erased, Barrett had this concern in his heart. And now Mara. The performance of the lady at the bottom of the branch is a direct proof that several people are in the worst-case scenario.

It took a lot of effort for Mara to calm her mount. The lady at the bottom of the branch finally breathed a sigh of relief. But the main credit for restoring the big dog's composure so easily was the relationship between the cavalry and the mounts, similar to that between the druids and their animal companions - in a sense, the emergence of these professional riders was the result of learning from the enlightened druids.

Of course, without the druids' many codes of conduct, riders have their own restrictions on the animals they can choose from - they must be able to ride and suitable animals, such as wild boars, horses, ponies or wolfdogs. From this point of view, the pay and the gain are really equal!

Since it is similar to the relationship of druid animal companions, it is natural that there is an emotional connection between the two parties. This makes the dog, named George W. Bush, naturally feel Mara at any time. The emotions of the lady at the bottom of the branch. Same for Mara. Ms. Koji was also able to understand the emotions of George W. Bush, so that whether she understood, directed, domesticated or appeased, Mara Bush was able to understand, command, tamesticate, or reassure. The Lady of the Branch, these cavalry have a great advantage.

After seeing that the big dog was no longer as cruel as before, Barrett stepped forward and asked pretending to be concerned, "Mara! There's nothing wrong with your George W. Bush, right? ”

"A bit of a small problem. It's not serious, though. Wait a few more hours to rinse its nose with water, and it will be fine for a few more hours. "Mara. The lady at the bottom of the branch said as she stroked the top hair of the big dog in distress.

Barrett sighed: "In other words, Bush Jr. will not be of any use in a short period of time?" Then we may not be able to complete our task today! ”

"Why don't we look around here and see if we can find any other clues. This kind of thing doesn't have to rely on the dog's sense of smell! Lalou, who suddenly ran to Barrett's legs, asked.

Barrett, who had long since lost hope for this, had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "Try it!" Anyway, it can be done to obey the destiny of heaven. ”

It's been three full days since the bloodstained Grey Flower were first attacked. With the buffer of these days, it is not easy to find the clues left on the sides of this busy business road. Not to mention what kind of aftermath those attackers will take with such a long processing time. The daily patrols of those caravans alone would have destroyed the original site.

The only thing to be thankful for is that the sun is shining these days, so that the rain doesn't wash away the most likely residual smells. Otherwise, Barrett would not have taken on this task at all, and at the same time applied to the Earl of Boreham for a professional who was good at tracking. But the finishing touches on the attackers were thorough. But it was more than Barrett expected. Even those of you who have received foreign aid are still at a loss for what to do with the situation in front of you.

That's right, Lalu's proposal was supported by the other players. However, as Barrett had predicted, even the sense of smell was targeted. How could other aspects that could be seen and touched could be let go. After digging deep into the ground and searching, it was barely possible to confirm that there had been a fight here in the last few days. And there's nothing left.

After a long search, the sun, which had already moved west, now only had a golden border on the horizon. Most of the players who regrouped in the carriage looked dejected. Barrett, wielding a horsewhip to steer the car, looked at his teammates and scratched his head: "Do you need this?" It's just that you can't find the clues of those attackers. There will inevitably be setbacks in life, and this situation like today is completely drizzle! ”

Barrett was right! Is there anything unexpected about something like this? It's like a security case in the city, and there are still a lot of things that need to be solved by those mages. If those guys in the vigilante were like you who were in a situation like you. I think Poitou is in chaos for a long time. "Mara sitting in the back of the car taking care of the dog. Lady at the bottom of the branch. I don't know if it's a solution or a mockery.

Barrett, who set off on the road, looked back at this time: "A few of them were too smooth sailing after their debut. Without any real suffering. It's normal to be depressed for a while when you encounter this kind of setback! But from what I've learned of them, it definitely doesn't last more than an hour. Mara, you can rest assured! ”

"Is that so?" Mara. The lady at the bottom of the branch looked at the players around her with a little confusion. Then you turned his gaze back to Barrett: "But in this situation, Barrett, do you have any good ideas?" Of course, it really can't solve the problem. I don't think the Earl will punish you for this! ”

When it comes to the punishment for failing the mission, Barrett is not worried at all, because the long career in office during the test has given him the ability to read the thoughts of those in power. So he knew what Earl Boreham valued for his potential now, and as long as he could be promoted to the Black Lead rank (11), most of the rest were dull details.

It's like this mission. Being able to succeed is naturally the icing on the cake. But even if it fails, it's just an itch for ringworm. It can't shake Barrett's fundamentals at all. It is even possible that in the mind of the Earl of Boreham, Barrett's failure in this mission is a normal situation - after all, he has the current strength at such a young age, and most of his energy is spent on improving his strength. Then it's normal to have weak links in other areas. No matter how smart and precocious you are, you can't escape the hurdle of lack of experience.

However, although there were no particularly serious consequences, Barrett was not willing to let the mission fail just like that. Look at the reward given by the system. There is a lot of temptation for Barrett's empty experience pool after the upgrade. Not to mention the threat of those attackers to Boreham Territory, which may affect Barrett's plans to lean against the tree in the future. Besides, although the icing on the cake is not as good as sending charcoal in the snow, why refuse if you have the opportunity!

While weighing the pros and cons, Barrett is also groping in his head for a feasible solution. After a long silence, he spoke without looking back: "It's getting so late now. I don't think we'll be able to get through the gates even if we get back to the city of Poitou. In that case, as Klaymatis had previously suggested, go to the spot where they would later engage with the attackers. If you follow that route, you might find some useful clues! After all, with such a large area, it is not as easy to clean up as the previous battlefield. ”

"I said it a long time ago! Go to the last battlefield we had before. "Claymatis. Bot suddenly leaned excitedly on Barrett's back.

At this time, Rieli immediately stepped forward and pulled her best friend back to her from Barrett's body: "Clematis, don't mess around! It's going to be dark soon, and even if there are really any clues in such a dark light, I'm afraid it's easy for us to ignore it! ”

"I don't think Barrett meant to search at night. Anyway, he couldn't enter the city, so he probably wanted to get to the place first now. Wait until early tomorrow morning to begin an extensive tracing check. Noodles played with the crossbow in his hand and put it back in the bag.

Suddenly, Barrett asked without looking back, "Rielly and Klymatis, what are the chances of success for the two of you using the Level 3 Spell Scroll?" ”

"Reels? If not the opposing schools. The chance of success is about 75 to 80 percent! In the case of opposition, only about 30 percent remained. Rielly was stunned for a moment, and then immediately told the truth.

And Clematis. Bot looked at Rielly and said with some embarrassment, "If I use the Divine Scroll of the Three Rings, I probably have less than a seventy percent chance of success. ”

"Enough! If you can't find any clues this time, prepare to go back to the city to buy scrolls to solve the problem! Barrett continued to ask, without looking back, "If I'm not mistaken, you must have the spoils of those attackers on you!" If this path doesn't work now, it will be the key to the success of the mission. ”

"What spell are you going to use?" Rielly immediately found the key to the remedy.

Barrett, who groaned slightly, spoke: "If I'm not mistaken. The Dance of Tracks is probably the most effective spell at this stage. ”

"But the Dance of the Trajectory gives only one direction!" Speaking of this, Rielie suddenly added: "That's right." There is also the state of consciousness of the other party. ”

"That's enough." Immediately afterwards, Barrett looked back at his foreign aid, "The rest is still left to Mara and Bush Jr. to assist!" ”

"No problem! As long as you can point in the right direction. We won't let you down. "Mara. The lady replied confidently.

After getting the answer he wanted, Barrett suddenly asked, "Who knows what to do next?" I don't know how many of you fought before. ”

"Wait!" Immediately after saying this, Rielly stood up. It's a pity that the wilderness after dark is actually not in line with his own memory. Feeling powerless, she turned her gaze to the halfling wanderer, who was relatively good at this: "I remember that you have a record of this before!" ”

"But now it's useless to have a record if the black light is blind! I'm not a smart navigator. Dough shook his head again and again, and then proposed, "Otherwise, just follow this business path all the time!" Anyway, Barrett, you know where the patrol range of Poitu is! Once there, stop at the side of the road, where our final battle will be. It will definitely be easy to find tomorrow morning. ”

"Good. Then go with your plan! Barrett said and swung his whip vigorously, and then the flatbed was much faster.

After a night's rest, and just after dawn, the players went to the final battle site without being welcomed. As Noodles said before, it's not difficult to find there. Frustratingly, just like the previous battlefield, there wasn't even a single piece of paper left for the players. As a last resort, a few people just need to go back to the city to seek the help of the magic scroll.

Returning to the decisive battle, Rielly asked in confusion, "Why use scrolls here, isn't it better in business?" ”

"You'll find out in a moment." Barrett is clearly not prepared to explain now.

"Alright! You're the captain, and you have the final say. Immediately after saying this, Rielly began to stir up the effect of the scroll. Immediately after that, a circular line appeared in front of her. Rielie herself danced at every point of the circle as if she had been overtaken by something. When she finished the spell with a wide view that could see in all directions, Rielly stopped in the southwest direction and held out her finger - indicating where the target was now. You will be able to face and point out the direction of the creature you are looking for.

Seeing this, the players all had smiles on their faces. Because I was preparing to divinate the current position and condition of another creature. Although the use of this spell requires first-hand knowledge of the Creature in the Dance of Tracks in order for the spell to work, the clothes torn from the opponent during the battle, and the loot snatched, are the best medium for casting spells.

Also, if the creature is alive and in the same zone as the user, this spell will cause you to face in the corresponding direction. And it can make him aware of the state of the other person's consciousness (healthy, injured, helpless, or other). Of course, if the creature dies in another realm, the caster will not be able to feel anything.

It is clear that among the previous attackers, the guy who players speculated to be the leader of the team is still alive. His existence is like a torch in the darkness, guiding players to find the truth. (To be continued.) (lwxs52０。 om))
