Dean narrowed his eyes as he looked at the fog of poison gas and illusion.

For him, who volunteered to serve as a bait, interception and killing, that was expected; The only surprise to Dean was that the people of the Ring of Morbius were able to arrange such a magic array so quickly on the path from the Emerald Capital to the south.

With Dean's knowledge of wizards, Dean knew very well the time, energy, and financial resources required to arrange such a large area of magic arrays that enveloped the entire road and the jungles on both sides of the road.

So it was only natural for Dean to have some thoughts-

"Did the Ring of Morbius use a huge amount of manpower to complete this magic array in an instant? Or have you already prepared in advance...... For other goals? Am I just an accident? ”

These two thoughts came to mind from the bottom of his mind, and Dean's narrowed eyes flashed with thought.

He prefers the latter.

Because, if it were the former, the Ring of Morbius would be much more powerful than he imagined.

After all, to complete such a magic array in just one or two days, at least one great wizard is needed as the leader, as well as more than five high-level wizards as assistants and several times as many wizards as low-level assistants.

And with such a large number of wizards, even the royal family of Emerald could not gather them in such a short period of time.

Unless it's in the Free Confederation -

The so-called gathering place for wizards: Mystic Island.

Therefore, this magic array should have taken quite a long time,

"It's definitely not because of me—after all, it's not because of me—after all. A week ago. I'm still an 'unknown' guy...... So. This is the gateway to the south of the Emerald Capital...... South, South, South......"

Almost subconsciously, Dean thought of the Emerald Archduke.

And then think of the assassination that a few months later, the Jade Grand Duke encountered on Midsummer Night......

"In the assassination shortly after, was the Ring of Morbius also involved?"

Dean asked inwardly.

The next moment, the slightly narrowed eyes began to flicker with coldness.

Because, according to the Ring of Morbius. Something like this is very possible.

"Is it Hitty, Gausai, or the Cult of God? The Ring of Morbius is also involved...... Oh, what a big lineup! ”

Dean couldn't help but laugh mockingly.

At the same time, a wave of admiration for the Jade Grand Duke rose in his heart.

How strong must the Jade Grand Duke, who can be dealt with by so many powerful forces in such a situation, have to be in his heyday?

"Sure enough, the gold level is not the end!"

Dean subconsciously thought of the corpse of the conquering king, even if the person died, but the momentum remaining on the corpse of the other party. It makes people's hearts palpitate.

Even a special magic weapon like the [Demon Blood Dagger] is difficult to destroy.

If the other person is still alive......

And also. What about the empresses who were able to fight with each other at that time, the Hermit, the Wind of the Sun, the Emperor of Titans and others?

Dean, who stood inexplicably in place, had a trace of yearning rising in his heart, and then this trace became thick and intense.

Soon, however, Dean suppressed this strong, intense yearning.

Because he knows very well what he should do now.

Even if there is a strong and strong yearning in the bottom of my heart, it will be for the future.

At the very least, he had to repay that person's kindness before he could consider it.

Dean, who had gathered his thoughts, turned around.

The young men of the Knights of the Knights of Fecharon, under the command of the Grand Duke Swordsman, made a few rudimentary 'rockets'—rockets lit by torches with grease-soaked rags wrapped in arrowheads.

"Chard, according to the three points I said before, start the temptation!"

The Grand Duke Swordsman said this.

"Yes, Your Excellency!"

Chad nodded, and then, bent his bow and arrow.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Three ignited rockets burst out of the string and went straight into the mist.

Standing where Dean was, he could clearly see that two of the three rockets were swallowed in an instant, and one of them went away in the fog with a firelight, and finally, inserted into the ground, burning slowly.

Obviously, the direction of the two arrows that were devoured was the place where illusion was rife.

And the place where the fire can still be seen is where the fog is located.

Of course, everywhere there is poison gas.

However, the latter is obviously much safer, at least there are no traps that cannot be seen by the 'naked eye'.

Although, if you enter it, you will definitely be affected by the poison gas, but for the current Dean and his party, there is obviously no better way!

The Grand Duke Swordsman had already begun to prepare—from the side of the saddle, she took out two potions.

"Instructor, I don't think it's a good way!"

Dean disagreed with the Grand Duke's swordsmanship's risk-taking approach.

"Compared to you, I'm much better at dealing with these poison gases - my physique is much stronger than yours, and with the antidote, I can last more time!"

Dean persuaded.

"We don't have a better way, and we're not comparing who lasts longer, but who is faster! Don't worry, with my speed and the antidote, I can get out of it all way! ”

The Grand Duke swordsman waved his hand, rejecting Dean's suggestion.

"What if there are other backhands in it? For example: ambush some manpower! They're going to be desperately pestering you and consuming your time - I think they'll have more antidotes than we do, and even some special magic items to keep them up longer! ”

Dean stepped forward, stopped in front of the Grand Duke Swordsman, and continued.

"I can't, so can you? Just because you have a stronger physique and are able to last more time? ”

Grand Duke Swordsman tilted his head slightly, staring at Dean.

Suddenly, the Grand Duke swordsman discovered. Originally, all that was needed was the usual Dean. I don't know when. She grew taller again, and when she stood closer, she needed to look up.

And looking up is that it naturally makes the Grand Duke swordsman a little uncomfortable.

So, completely subconsciously, the Grand Duke Swordsman took a step back.

However, just after taking a step back, the Grand Duke Sword Master felt that he was acting like this. is showing weakness; Immediately, the swordsman wanted to take a step forward.

Dean, however, was a little quicker.

He smiled and took a step forward—

"You see, do you also think your reasons are untenable?"

Dean said with a shrug of his shoulders.

"I'm ......"

"Instructor, when I volunteered to be this 'bait,' I knew what I was going to encounter, and I was fully prepared for it—both physically and psychologically; So, I think I'm better fit to get into it than you do...... It's not just because my constitution is far stronger than yours! ”

Dean interrupted the Grand Duke Swordsman's words with a stern and serious face. Of course. As the last sentence was spoken, a smile appeared on Dean's lips again. Said: "However, it is a fact that my physique is stronger than yours, and it is also my advantage!" ”

"Do you know you're arguing with reason?"

The Grand Duke Swordsman looked at Dean with blazing eyes.

"I'm just sticking to my guns!"

Dean shrugged his shoulders again and reached out to take the antidote in the hand of the Grand Duke Swordsman.

The Grand Duke Swordsman frowned slightly, and finally, let go of his hand and let Dean take the antidote in his hand.

"What about me? Standing here and doing nothing? ”

The Grand Duke Swordsman asked.

In his tone, there was a considerable dissatisfaction.

"No, no, you'll be busy in a moment - I'm right the main target of the Ring of Morbius, but if they can weaken the influence of the Emerald, they will be happy to do it, like the Countess of Katyu who took us...... Of course, that includes you; So, when I'm gone, you need to be ready, and you know, Chad and they're not going to help much! ”

Dean said meaningfully.

"Okay, I get it - I've been working as a nanny since I left Southport, and I'm no exception!"

The Grand Duke Swordsman finally sighed in compromise, while Chad and the other young people were a little embarrassed, and stood there with their heads bowed and their faces flushed.

"Be careful!"

As Dean gathered his gear and walked towards the mist in the distance, the Grand Duke Swordsman admonished.

Dean didn't respond, just raised his right arm and waved.

Then without any pause, he walked forward briskly.

In a short time, the whole person disappeared into the dense fog of fog, poisonous gas, and illusion.

And just as Dean entered the fog, a man hidden somewhere in the fog let out a burst of gloomy laughter-

"Quack quack...... The target obediently took the bait! It's up to you! ”

Under the cover of the cloak, the man's facial features were obscured by shadows, and in front of him, a palm-sized diamond-shaped crystal was emitting a faint light.

This kind of light not only expelled poison gas and illusions, but also allowed him to contact his subordinates around him.

"Understood!"

More than a dozen voices rang out in unison.

Then, the light on the diamond-shaped crystal began to slowly intensify under the man's control, enveloping a large area around him.

Under the light of the light, the layout of the place was completely revealed.

A huge magic array was on the ground, and the inscriptions engraved in magic words filled the surrounding walls.

It's a room that looks a little special.

Because, it doesn't have a roof.

However, the surrounding walls are quite high, like mountains.

Therefore, the inscriptions carved on the seal are also so numerous that they are too many to count.

However, it seems that this place is not finished.

At the top of the wall, a dozen figures were still busy, and one of them was floating down like a feather.

"Sdel, you're playing. Fire. Self. Burn! ”

After the figure fell to the ground, he looked at the man who was obscured by the shadows, and said slowly.

"Haring, we are comrades-in-arms, partners, and...... Allies, aren't they? Do you think that the high priest still does not know what you are doing because of whom? ”

The shadow-obscured man's voice was gloomy.
