The long fairy road is wonderful

Chapter 291 Tracking
The composition of adventurers is complex. It can be said that there are all kinds of people. Although there are some bottom lines compared to mercenaries who have milk and mothers, do you expect all adventurers to be good people?

It is obviously unrealistic to receive a task from the tavern, cut monsters outside, and come back. The style of painting that can be warmly welcomed by the whole town is obviously unrealistic.

Another example is to accept the entrustment of the king of a certain country, run to rescue the princess who was captured by the dragon, and finally tie the knot with the princess and go to the pinnacle of life.

——I'm afraid I've heard too many stories about bards.

Adventurers need to face many dangers, because when traveling in the wild, everything is possible.It is similar to the grand travel event that Lin Tianci and the others participated in in Eastern China, but adventurers travel without any scripts and no security guarantees. Everyone who becomes an adventurer either grows up quickly from a rookie or is treated as a leek Karma off the same.

In addition to facing monsters, dangerous wild environments, ruins full of traps, and even bandits who occasionally rush out to make trouble, they may deal with the government and even some gray forces when they enter the city.

How could it be impossible to be ruthless?
Regardless of the fact that Leticia and Alma are soft girls who don't feel disobedient when they put on evening gowns and go to the ball, the blood on the hands of these two girls can definitely scare Brother Lin.

But in the end, Kegel didn't chop off the little boss's finger and let him eat it himself, not because his conscience found out or because Lin Tianci was disgusted to stop him, but because Mistro discovered a secret passage through magic.

As usual, Kegel did the damage. With a few strokes of his axe, he split a bookshelf into firewood, and found a secret door almost integrated with the wall behind the bookshelf.

Later, Leticia exerted her supernatural power again, and pierced through the secret door with a stick, revealing the deep tunnel behind.

There was no lighting in the tunnel, and it was short and narrow. Lin Tianci, the tallest, had to bow his head to walk in. It was also very deep, and I don't know how long it was.

Fanning the smoke and dust, Mystra raised his hand and pointed into the tunnel:
"Show footprints."

A row of green fluorescent footprints spread deeper along the passage, and there were four or five people in the shoe prints.

"This channel has been used recently and was just passed through about 10 minutes ago."

Footprints that have been too long cannot be displayed by this spell. The intensity of the green fluorescence can be used to judge the time passed by the other party. The longer the time, the weaker the fluorescence.

Alma lay down at the entrance of the cave, looked around and said:

"Catch up and have a look. It's best if you can catch someone, but if you can't catch it, forget it."

Originally, according to the entrustment agreement, their role was to disrupt the situation, arresting people was extra work, and they would be paid extra if they caught Desha, and it didn't matter if they couldn't.

So Kegel rushed in with a stride, and Mystra let the peeping eyes follow in to explore the way in front, followed by Leticia and Alma holding the lighting spell, Lin Tianci After the break as usual.

At first, everyone thought that this was an ordinary escape tunnel, and they should not be able to see the exit after walking for a long time. However, the length of the tunnel was far beyond everyone's expectations. They all trotted all the way for almost half an hour without any sign of exit.

If it weren't for Mystra's swearing guarantee that there would be no illusions or any magical effects, everyone would have thought they were spinning in circles.

"From the perspective of distance, we have almost passed through less than half of Canso City."

What Elma said was the straight-line distance. If you walk normally on the surface, you need to detour a lot.

"Did the Peeping Eye find anything?"

"No, but one of the footprints has not been broken, so it is estimated that the other party is also running forward."

Mistrow had just finished speaking, and then said:
"I saw the exit, about 200 meters ahead."

This shocked everyone, and walking for half an hour in a tunnel that was not much better than a sewer was a bit painful.

It didn't take long for them to follow the footprints and Mystra's guidance to the exit of the tunnel. They could see a row of ladders made of metal rods nailed to the wall, and a square exit above their heads.

There is now a large piece of wood covering it, which should be a camouflage for the exit, but it may be because the person they were chasing was too anxious when they came out, a large piece of wood was exposed, as if it was not tightly covered.

Mystra stretched out his hand to grab Kegel who was about to climb up the ladder, raised his hand a little, and let the translucent peeping eyes the size of a ping-pong ball fly out along the gap first, as if to confirm safety.

Then everyone crawled out of the tunnel one by one, turning their heads to look around.

They seem to be in a building with a very high roof, and the area is also very large. You can see rows of long pillars supporting the beams of the house to prevent the roof from collapsing. .

"We're probably in a warehouse somewhere near the docks."

Leticia looked at the surrounding environment and said.

Kegel poked the ax on the ground and echoed:
"It's really dignable. From the new city to the warehouse, it must have passed through half the city."

Lin Tianci also saw a large pile of wooden crates not far from the exit. He looked around and found no danger, so he walked over and reached out to lift the lid.

All the boxes were dry straw, but the straw must be just a buffer. Almost all the boxes had a lot of sunken marks, as if some heavy objects had been placed in them.

He noticed these boxes, and the others were not blind, so of course they saw it too. Alma looked at the straw in the box and said:

"Is this the warehouse where the auction will store the auction items?"

Immediately, she reached out and grabbed a straw, denying herself:
"No, it's not an auction item, it's probably a weapon or armor."

The empty weapon box was supposed to be a gathering of rich and powerful, but only the underground auction with few guests today, and Desha's commission.

The three key words swirled in Alma's mind, and her expression became serious for a moment.

Lin Tianci next to him didn't think about it at all. He was wondering what Erma was thinking about, and only heard Mystra, who was in charge of using the peeping eyes to find targets and guard, said loudly:

"There is an ambush nearby!"

Everyone was startled, and quickly formed a back-to-back circle. At the same moment, a black light shot from a dark corner of the warehouse, pointing directly at Alma standing beside the box.

The latter raised his hand and released a rotating green barrier, but Lin Tianci moved faster. He saw the opportunity and stretched out his hand to grab it. With his wrist turned, he grabbed the shot thing in his hand.

Only then did everyone see that what was shot was a feathered arrow that was deliberately blackened to avoid reflection.

"Where is that guy?"

Kegel stared around, but saw nothing.Mistrow responded:
"The Peeping Eye cannot see him, it may be invisible or stealth."

Peeping eyes are similar to small drones that can send images of what they see to the caster, the problem is that they can't see through invisibility or illusions.

But another spell does.

"Mysterious eyes."

This time, what emerged from Mystra's hands was a translucent spherical object the size of a volleyball, which had the ability to see through magic aura and detect invisibility.

The secret magic eye rose rapidly, and reached the height where the entire interior of the warehouse could be clearly seen in an instant, but only a crisp sound was heard.

Mystra felt a pain in his temple and lost contact with the Mystic Eye.

"Front left, behind the pile of boxes 20 meters away."

Although the Mystic Eye was shot down, it managed to see the target.

Lin Tianci immediately made a sword with his fingers, and activated the flame killing technique with his fingers.

A thick three-meter-high pillar of fire popped out directly from under the box that Mystro said. The rumbling sound and flames ignited the wooden box, and at the same time, everyone saw a translucent guy emerging from the scorching air.

"Magic Missile!"

Leticia immediately aimed at the target and fired three missiles burning with arcane energy, and Elma also reached out and grabbed it:
"Ice Javelin!"

A javelin made of solid ice appeared in her hand, followed by the magic missile.

The magic missile has its own tracking effect, and it doesn't need to be aimed too precisely to hit the target. However, Erma's ice javelin has calculated the lead time. If it is pinched by two spells, the opponent will hit one of them no matter what.

But at this moment, Lin Tianci on the side pushed Alma aside who had just thrown the ice javelin.

- choke

The whisper of the sharp weapon sounded instantly, and a transparent figure half-kneeled at the position where Alma was just standing holding the sharp weapon. If Lin Tianci hadn't pushed it, Alma would definitely have been stabbed right now.

With a turn of his body, Lin Tianci turned around in a circle with the remaining kinetic energy of the evasive movement, just in time to kick the attacker on the shoulder.

His bones are not good, and his physique and physical strength are weak compared to ordinary monks, but whether he is weak or not is a comparison.

This kick sent the man flying. In addition to the strength of Lin Tianci's legs, the man himself just retreated to relieve his strength, so it looked as if Lin Tianci had kicked him several meters away.

"Sneaky bastard, eat me with an axe!"

Kegel next to him just swung the ax once, but the man who was sneaking up was more nimble than expected. A lazy donkey rolled to avoid the ax blade, and disappeared into the air again.

The other figure targeted by the two spells ate a set of magic missiles solidly in order to avoid the more powerful ice javelin.

It felt like being hit by a car, slammed into the air, and hit the wall opposite the warehouse.

But before everyone could make up their swords again, several figures appeared again from the shadows created by the surrounding wooden crates, some with long swords, some with machetes, and even a barbaric man holding a door-like sword. People, but these people are not invisible.

"There are five in total. They should be the target's bodyguards."

"Ha, too little, not enough points."

That's what he said, but he cared more about the guy who just made a stealth attack than the group of people who rushed over.

Invisibility is a considerable advantage. Although it is impossible to have a particularly perfect invisibility, it is too energy-consuming to pay attention to the outlines and details that may appear in the air all the time in the ensuing battle.

Lin Tianci looked around and said:
"Leave that guy to me."
