Chapter 343 Murder in the Mist I

Dean narrowed his eyes as he looked at the mist mixed with poisonous gas and illusion.

For him who voluntarily served as the bait, it was expected to intercept and kill; the only thing that surprised Dean was that the people in the Mobius ring were able to so quickly pass the emerald capital to the south. On the only way, such a magic circle is arranged.

Based on Dean's understanding of wizards, Dean is very clear about the time, energy and financial resources required to set up such a large-scale magic circle that covers the entire road and the jungle on both sides of the road.

Therefore, Dean naturally had some ideas——

"Did the Ring of Mobius use a huge amount of manpower to complete the magic circle in an instant? Or had it been prepared in advance... for other goals? Is it just an accident?"

These two thoughts emerged from the bottom of his heart, and Dean's narrowed eyes flickered with thinking.

He prefers the latter.

Because, if it was the former, the Ring of Mobius would be much stronger than he imagined.

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

And with such a large number of wizards, even the emerald royal family could not get together in such a short period of time.

Unless in the Free Commonwealth—

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

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

"The magic circle that took such a long time to set up is definitely not because of me—after all, a week ago, I was an 'unknown' guy... Then, this is the only way to the south of the emerald capital. The way... south, south..."

Almost subconsciously. Dean thought of Grand Duke Emerald.

Reminiscent of the assassination that Grand Duke Jade met on Midsummer Night a few months later...

"Assassination not long after. Was the Mobius ring also involved?"

Dean asked inwardly.

The next moment, in those slightly narrowed eyes. It began to flicker coldly.

Because, according to the Mobius ring, such a thing is very possible.

"Whether it's Xiti, Gao Sai, or God Cult? The Ring of Mobius is also involved... Oh, what a big lineup!"

Dean couldn't help laughing mockingly.

At the same time, a wave of admiration for Grand Duke Emerald rose from the bottom of my heart.

How powerful was the Emerald Duke in his heyday who could be dealt with by so many powerful forces in such a situation?

"Sure enough. The gold level is not the end!"

Dean subconsciously thought of the corpse of the King of Conquerors. Even though he was dead, the aura remaining on the other's corpse made people palpitate.

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

If the other party is still alive...

Also, what about the female emperors who were able to fight with each other at that time, the hermit, the wind of the sun, the emperor of the titans, etc.?

Dean, who was standing there inexplicably, felt a little longing in his heart, and then. This trace became thicker and stronger.

However, soon, Dean suppressed this strong, strong yearning——

because. He knew very well what he should do now.

No matter how strong and strong yearning is in my heart, it will be a matter of the future.

At least, he must repay that kindness before he can consider it.

After sorting out his thoughts, Dean turned around.

Under the command of the archduke's swordsman, the young people of the Fei Chalun Knights made a few crude 'rockets'-the arrows were wrapped with rags soaked in grease, and the rockets were ignited by torches.

"Chad, follow the three points I said before. Start exploring!"

The Grand Duke Swordsman said so.

"Yes, sir!"

Chad nodded. Then, bend your bow and nock your arrow.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Three ignited rockets. Leaving the string, it went straight into the mist.

Standing where Dean was, he could clearly see that two of the three rockets were instantly swallowed, and one of them went away in the mist with flames, and finally, it was inserted into the ground and burned slowly.

Obviously, the direction of the two arrows that were swallowed was the place full of illusions.

And the place where the fire can still appear is the place where the fog is.

Of course, there is poisonous gas no matter where it is.

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

Although, entering it would definitely be affected by the poisonous gas, but for the current Dean and his party, there is obviously no better way!

The archduke swordsman has already started preparations - from the side of the saddle, she took out two potions.

"Instructor, I don't think this is a good way!"

Dean didn't agree with the Grand Duke's swordsman taking risks.

"Compared to you, I am better at dealing with these poisonous gases - my physique is far stronger than yours, and with the antidote, I can last longer!"

Dean persuaded.

"We have no better way. Moreover, we are not comparing who can last longer, but who is faster! Don't worry, with my speed and the antidote, I can escape completely!"

The Archduke Swordsman waved his hand, rejecting Dean's proposal.

"What if there are other backhands among them? For example: ambush some people! They will desperately pester you and consume your time-I think they will have more antidotes than us, and even some special magic Items, so that they can support more time!"

Dean took a step forward, stopped in front of the archduke swordsman, and continued.

"I can't, so can you? Just because you have a stronger physique and can last longer?"

The archduke swordsman raised his head slightly and stared at Dean.

Suddenly, the Grand Duke's swordsman discovered that Dean, who only needed him normally, had grown taller again at some point. If you stand close, you need her to look up.

But looking up, naturally made the Grand Duke's swordsman a little uncomfortable.

so. Completely subconsciously, the Archduke Swordsman took a step back.

but. Just after taking a step back, the Grand Duke's swordsman felt that his behavior was showing weakness; immediately, the swordsman wanted to take a step forward.

However, Dean wanted to go faster.

He smiled and took a step forward——

"You see, do you also think that your reason is untenable?"

Dean shrugged.

"I was..."

"Instructor, when I voluntarily became this 'bait', I knew what I would encounter. And, I had already made full preparations—both physically and psychologically; so, I think I am more suitable than you to enter it... not only because my physique is far stronger than yours!"

With a serious face on his face, Dean interrupted the words of the Archduke Swordsman seriously. Of course, as the last sentence was spoken, Dean smiled again, and said: "However, it is a fact that my physique is stronger than yours, and it is also my advantage!"

"Do you know that you're making excuses?"

The Archduke Swordsman looked at Dean with piercing eyes.

"I'm just sticking to my guns!"

Dean shrugged again and held out his hand. Take it towards the antidote in the hands of the Grand Duke Swordsman.

The Grand Duke's swordsman frowned slightly, and finally let go of his hand. Let Dean hold the antidote in his hand.

"What about me? Standing here, doing nothing?"

The Archduke Swordsman asked.

There was considerable dissatisfaction in his tone.

"No, no, you will be very busy soon - the main target of the Mobius ring is me, but if they can weaken the influence of jade, they will never tire of it, just like the Kaqiu who took care of us Countess... Of course, including you; so, after I leave. You need to be prepared, you know. Chad and the others can't help much!"

Dean said meaningfully.

"Okay, I get it—since I left Nangang County. I've been working as a babysitter, and I'm no exception now!"

The archduke swordsman finally sighed in compromise, while Chad and other young people were a little embarrassed, standing there with their heads down and blushing.

"be careful!"

When Dean sorted out his equipment and walked towards the fog in the distance, the Archduke Swordsman gave instructions.

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

Then without any pause, he walked forward quickly.

After a while, the whole person disappeared in the mist that was densely covered with thick fog, poisonous gas, and illusion.

And just as Dean entered the mist, a man hidden somewhere in the mist let out bursts of gloomy laughter——

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

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

This kind of light not only drives away the poisonous gas and illusion, but also allows him to connect with the subordinates around him.

"clear!"

More than a dozen voices rang out in unison.

Then, the light on the diamond-shaped crystal began to increase slowly under the man's control, covering a large area around it——

Under the radiance of that light, the layout here is fully revealed.

A huge magic circle was on the ground, and the inscriptions engraved with magic characters were densely packed on the surrounding walls.

This is a room that looks a little special.

Because it doesn't have a roof.

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

Therefore, there are too many inscriptions carved out of the seals to count.

However, it seems that it is not finished here--

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

"Sidel, you are playing with fire. Self-immolation!"

After the figure landed on the ground, looking at the man covered by the shadow, he said slowly.

"Harlem, we are comrades-in-arms, partners, and... allies, aren't we? Don't you think the high priest still doesn't know what you did, because of whom?"

The man covered by the shadow spoke in a gloomy voice.
