Chapter 552 Conspiracy
The four people got off the magic carriage and were led by the legendary thief into the maple forest in front of them.
This maple forest is not very big. As soon as Wang Zhifan came here, he used his super perception to confirm that there was no saint hidden inside, but there were faint points of law fluctuations, which seemed to foreshadow something.
He also noticed that after arriving here, the elven wizard in platinum robes and the strong dwarf old man with a longbow on his back became very alert and stayed far behind the team.
Wang Zhifan was very confident in his reconnaissance abilities, so he did not make any such small moves and walked almost side by side with the legendary thief who was leading the way.
"Where is the Saint? Why can't I see him?"
At this moment, Wang Zhifan pretended that he hadn't noticed anything and asked the thin and wretched hooded man beside him, with just the right amount of doubt on his face.
"We're almost there, big guy. You don't think the Saint will just stand here and wait for us, do you? He must have hidden himself a long time ago."
The thin hooded man answered as he walked towards an inconspicuous small opening in the maple forest. He soon stood next to it and turned to look at the legendary elf wizard and legendary dwarf archer who were slowly approaching step by step in the distance.
"Why don't you leave?"
Although Wang Zhifan knew very well that the law fluctuation point he had just discovered was right next to him, he still asked despite knowing the answer.
The legendary thief seemed a little impatient at this moment, and replied with a wave of his hand:
"Don't ask so many questions, big guy. Just wait and see."
After a while, the elven wizard and dwarf archer who had been walking carefully all the way arrived. The dwarf archer carefully observed the surroundings and did not find anything unusual. The elven wizard was worthy of being a wizard, and he keenly noticed the abnormal law fluctuations in the gap.
The skinny and wretched legendary thief then said to the elven wizard:
"Mr. Wizard, I finally found out that the saint is hiding here. It seems that you have discovered something. I hope you can find him."
"I'll give it a try."
The serious-looking legendary elf wizard nodded slightly, and the black staff in his hand slowly gathered powerful energy. Then he suddenly shot all the concentrated energy towards the point where the law was fluctuating!
In an instant, very smoothly, something like a space crack or a portal was exposed in the air, appearing unstable.
"Haha! Success! I knew that guy was hiding here! Everyone, follow me to hunt him! Don't give him a chance to escape!"
Upon seeing this scene, the legendary thief jumped into the space crack without hesitation, as if he was a poor man who had discovered a huge treasure.
But Wang Zhifan and three others did not follow in. They all stayed outside, and some even quickly took several steps back.
Because everyone felt that there was something wrong with this space crack. It appeared so smoothly and naturally that it was hard not to suspect whether it was some kind of trap.
"Sir Warrior, I think you can see that this thief is not normal. I hope you can stand with us so that no one will be deceived by him."
The elf wizard in a platinum robe and holding a black staff was paying attention to the situation on the other side of the space crack while speaking to Wang Zhifan.
Not far from her, the strong old dwarf drew his longbow horizontally, and the sharp arrow emitting a dangerous aura was aimed at the direction of the space crack. There was no doubt that he had joined forces with the elven wizard.
"That's fine with me...but it seems a little late for us to join forces now."
After listening to this, Wang Zhifan gave his answer in a calm tone and turned to look at the outskirts of the maple forest.
The elf wizard's face suddenly changed, and he looked in the direction they had just come from. He found that a circle of constantly fluctuating hazy objects had enveloped the entire maple forest, including the high sky, which was completely blocked out.
"Teleportation!"
She immediately began to mobilize the power of the space system, trying to escape from this cage that had quietly formed at some point in time.
The dwarf archer suddenly released the bowstring from his fingers, letting an extremely powerful arrow fly into the sky and hit the strange barrier that blocked them.
However, it soon proved that their efforts were in vain.
The elven wizard's teleportation spell failed in the end, and the dwarf archer's sharp arrow was like a drop in the ocean, disappearing silently after touching the barrier of the sky, without leaving even the smallest hole or trace.
Wang Zhifan, who was standing not far from them, was observing them without making any attacking or escaping moves.
"Mother Earth! Grant me the power to walk through rock and soil!"
The unwilling elven wizard cast another spell and sank into the ground, trying to escape underground. However, within a few seconds, she emerged from the ground in a panic, having undoubtedly failed again.
"I knew there would be no such coincidence in the world. This is really a trap!"
After the strong old dwarf archer shot several times in a row without success, he expressed his anger with a cold look.
But as soon as he finished speaking, the legendary thief's urgent cry for help came from the nearby space crack:
"Come in and help me! I can't hold on any longer!"
No matter how he listened, it seemed as if he was really in great danger, but the three people outside the space crack were unmoved, and the elves and dwarves even retreated away.
Wang Zhifan was the only person standing still. He focused his perception on the space crack, and soon raised his eyebrows slightly and discovered something, then jumped in without hesitation.
The elven wizard and the dwarf archer couldn't help but look at each other when they saw this. They felt that Wang Zhifan's action was beyond their expectations, but the two did not jump in and remained outside cautiously.
At this moment, Wang Zhifan, who passed through the space crack, came to a closed place similar to a cave. The first thing that caught his eye was a man in long clothes with a strong aura but a dull expression.
The man released extraordinary power from his whole body. He not only resisted the skinny black-clad thieves who kept flashing around to attack him, but also occasionally knocked the thieves back more than ten meters away out of thin air, thus gaining the advantage on the scene.
"Come and help me hold him back!"
The legendary thief was very surprised to find that Wang Zhifan had finally come in. He quickly retreated in the direction where Wang Zhifan was standing, wanting Wang Zhifan to take over his battle and help him hold back the man in long clothes who was suspected to be his target saint.
But Wang Zhifan ignored him. His eyes were focused on the long-clothed man in front of him who had a strong aura but a dull look. Then he suddenly raised the Qingdi Sword in his hand and hit it behind his shoulder. With a clear sound, he used the scabbard to repel the legendary thief who attacked his neck without warning. The thin legendary thief in black clothes with a hood failed to succeed in his attack and did not want to fight. He decisively retreated quickly and escaped from the space crack. At the same time, the saint in front of Wang Zhifan suddenly rushed towards him and fought with him.
Everything that happened showed that there was something fishy about the legendary thief who organized this hunt, but Wang Zhifan didn't care too much.
He kept the Green Emperor Sword unsheathed and fought against the man in long clothes who rushed towards him. In just a few seconds, he completely suppressed this dull guy, and then activated the insight ability of the Thinker Necklace to read the thoughts of this suspected saint.
"His mind is almost blank. He is not a living person at all, let alone a saint... But he does have an aura similar to that of a saint."
As soon as he used his ability, Wang Zhifan came to an accurate conclusion. He looked at the chest of the man in long clothes who was being held down by him with one hand. There, he could sense the source of the saint's aura, a strange crystal that gave him a complex and confusing feeling.
“Godhood? It doesn’t seem right… This thing feels like a defective product lacking in power… And it was pieced together forcefully.”
There was no need to remove the crystal from the man's heart. Wang Zhifan's powerful perception was enough to make an accurate judgment, allowing him to gradually make some inferences in his heart.
"This man without complex thoughts is just a carrier. The crystal in his chest is artificially created. It is probably a replica of the godhead."
After the inspection, he threw the man in long clothes who had become waste aside and turned to the location where the space crack was originally located.
Since the space crack had disappeared after the thin thief left, he drew his sword and cut through the closed space, then walked out slowly.

As soon as he returned to the maple forest, he found that the place had changed.
The hazy magic circle covering the sky turned purple-black, releasing a huge oppressive force everywhere.
The bowstring in the hand of the strong old dwarf archer broke and he fell to the ground with his head tilted, and a large amount of blood flowed.
The elven wizard is not dead yet, but the situation is not optimistic.
She was leaning on her staff to support a white protective shield that had shrunk to the extreme. Outside the shield was the flickering figure of the legendary thief who was attacking continuously. If it lasted a little longer, she would likely follow in the footsteps of the dwarf archer.
But the appearance of Wang Zhifan obviously broke the current situation. The legendary thief noticed that he had stepped into the current area, and his figure immediately appeared on his side without warning and launched a fierce attack.
This kind of high-speed sneak attack based on space means is generally difficult to deal with, but Wang Zhifan, as a swordsman who practices the laws of time and space, noticed the traces in advance.
There was a flash of knife light, and the legendary thief screamed suddenly. His arm holding the dagger was broken at the wrist, and no matter how he exerted his strength, he could not stop the bleeding.
The next moment, Wang Zhifan's figure appeared out of nowhere behind the thief, and without waiting for him to react, he grabbed his neck and lifted him up high.
“Insight.”
The legendary necklace thinker's insight ability was immediately activated, allowing Wang Zhifan to forcefully invade the thin man's brain and learn all his thoughts.
"Sneak into the astral world... collect fragments... research for years to create the most suitable godhead for myself... artificial godhead requires more extraordinary power to complete... set up a trap and find a few legendary professionals... it turns out that this guy is also a legendary wizard, a rare double legendary professional..."
After reading the thoughts of the thin hooded man, Wang Zhifan quickly understood the whole picture.
Simply put, this guy directly invited him to join the so-called god-making plan on the street. He did have a conspiracy. From the very beginning, he regarded the legendary professional partners he was looking for as disposable materials, so naturally he didn't need to select them carefully.
His plan to become a god was not completely false, but it was not at all what he had said in the tavern before. In fact, he had been planning his plan to become a god many years ago, using the special route of artificial godhood.
As for hunting saints, it is all fictitious. This legendary wizard and legendary thief has never thought of hunting saints.
On the one hand, this behavior was too dangerous. On the other hand, when he launched the plan, he did not anticipate that a large number of saints would descend on the main plane, so there was no way to carry out the plan.
Even the advent of the Saint dealt him a big blow, making him feel that the great plan he had worked hard to plan for many years had almost become a clown. Not only did the plan he had persisted on until now still have no hope of real success, but it was also very likely that some lucky people would succeed in hunting the Saint and get ahead of him.
He was extremely depressed and almost mentally twisted, so he designed a conspiracy to deceive people. He planned to use the current trend of hunting saints to become gods in the world to reverse hunt legendary professionals as precious materials for him to complete the artificial godhood, thus directing a plan of becoming a god that was full of loopholes.
All in all, this guy could be considered a lunatic or a madman. He did have a very deep study of the Godhead and knew a lot about saints, but all of this was to serve his unfinished plan of creating an artificial Godhead.
He didn't know the whereabouts of many true saints. After all, the saints had just arrived, and the weak saints must know how to protect themselves, and it was impossible for them to be exposed at the beginning.
"Why are you not affected by the legendary confinement array?"
Enveloped by the mysterious purple-black power, the elf wizard in a platinum robe had her shield consumption reduced by more than half because no one was attacking her madly. She had the energy to ask Wang Zhifan, who was carrying the skinny thief.
The reason why she and the dead dwarf archer were defeated so quickly just now was mainly because there was a legendary confinement array in this place, which severely weakened their strength. It was naturally difficult for them to cope with the attack of the legendary thief.
However, Wang Zhifan was also in the magic circle and acted as if nothing had happened, which almost made her think that he was in cahoots with the thief.
But now it seems that this is not the case at all, because Wang Zhifan has strangled the thief's neck and thrown him to the ground.
"Break it for me!"
Wang Zhifan did not answer the elven wizard's question, but raised the Green Emperor Sword and slashed at the sky. The terrifying sword light destroyed the entire magic circle in the blink of an eye, and the pressure on the elven wizard disappeared instantly.
"We have been deceived by him. There is no saint here at all. There is no need to stay here and waste time."
After dealing with the external restraints, Wang Zhifan spoke to the elf wizard, ready to end this expected disappointing action.
But the elven wizard, who had seen his terrifying strength, did not want to part with him so soon, and invited him:
"My powerful warrior, to express my gratitude to you, please come to my mansion and rest for a while." (End of this chapter)
