Don't call me evil god

The old-fashioned dwarven oil lamp, the lamp base and lamp head are made of copper. As long as the wick is slightly lit, it can burn for 4 or 5 hours with sufficient fuel, and then the brightness will gradually decrease.

Gale rubbed his fingers calmly.

Carefully rubbed out an arcane spark.

In terms of difficulty, this thing is not even a magic trick, let alone magic.

But it is a trick that only a serious wizard can play.

Because its essence is to interact with the magic network, borrowing a very small amount of arcane energy, allowing them to restrain sporadic fire elements and create beautiful sparks.

This is the true meaning of "burning in the air", without any combustibles.

Casting magic near the Spirit Wing Wetland.

The activity of arcane energy is much more intense than normal.

Originally just sporadic sparks, this time it can burst into a small cluster of flames in the air.

The flames fell accurately on the nearest tapestry!

Brandon used his body to block the scene in time, so that the dwarf clerk who had been staring at them without saying a word since Pete and his friends entered the store did not see it.

"Whoosh!"

The flames quickly surged!

Miranda immediately screamed in cooperation, her expression became extremely panicked:

"It's on fire!"

While shouting, she enthusiastically pulled down the burning tapestry, and then swung and slapped it hard, pretending to try to put out the fire.

If it was in an open space outdoors, it might be useful to put out the fire by slapping it.

But this was a narrow room.

And - there were flammable items suitable for burning everywhere around!

The number of tapestries that were ignited increased instantly.

Originally, only one tapestry was on fire, but now all the tapestries around were burned!

Pete, Gale and Brandon immediately pretended to be frightened and began to shout in panic:

"Help! Help!"

"Put out the fire!"

"Where is the water! It's on fire!"

While shouting, they slapped around in a panic.

Pete even "accidentally" dropped the old-fashioned dwarf oil lamp on the ground, breaking the windproof lampshade and letting the grease fuel inside flow out.

The flames burned even more!

Now, the silent dwarf clerk could no longer stay at the counter and do nothing!

He rushed to Pete and the others anxiously, picked up the burning tapestry and ran out.

Most dwarves are not afraid of flames and high temperatures. He obviously planned to abandon the burning tapestries and throw them outside the store so that they would not ignite more tapestries during the burning.

Pete saw this and immediately winked at Brandon.

Brandon understood.

He stretched out his right leg while screaming, and by chance, it just blocked the dwarf!

The dwarf tripped and fell flat on his face!

"Ah!!!"

During this period, Miranda's screams never stopped, one after another, and the noise made by Pete and Gale made the tapestry shop a mess.

The chaotic sound just covered up the noise made when the trap door was lifted and then fell.

Pete noticed the change of the trap door behind the counter from the corner of his eye, and knew that Reina had successfully sneaked in during the chaos!

Then what they had to do next was to delay time as much as possible.     Let the chaos last as long as possible, delay the dwarf, and give Reina a chance to investigate!

Pete immediately pretended to inhale burning smoke, his steps were disordered, and he stepped hard on the fallen dwarf twice, and then he cried out "Ouch", using the dwarf as a cushion and fell on him.

"I feel dizzy! I feel so uncomfortable! Oh! I can't do it anymore!"

While screaming, Pete tried his best to put all his weight on the dwarf to prevent him from getting up quickly.

The other three took the opportunity to expand the fire!

...

Pulling open the trap door in [Stealth], as Reina expected, there is a stone staircase leading to the lower part.

The lighting conditions on both sides of the stairs are much better than those in the tapestry shop, and even small-volume fluorite is used to provide light.

This is not particularly friendly to Reina, because her stealth effect will be discounted.

The "invisibility" effect provided by the shadow magic is different from the "invisibility" produced by the magic of [Invisibility] used by mages.

The latter has a stronger distortion effect on light, while the former focuses more on covering up breath and sound.

In places with high enough brightness, using the shadow magic can achieve the effect of [Stealth], but it will leave a very light shadow.

If someone is careful enough, they can see the shadow directly with their naked eyes and then realize that there is a stealth person.

Reina carefully moved down along the stairs quickly.

She could clearly smell a strange "stink".

It was a bit like the smell of rotten eggs, and every breath made Reina's nose irritated and uncomfortable.

After walking up about a few dozen steps, there was a 90-degree turn in the middle.

Reina estimated that she should be 7 or 8 meters below the tapestry shop.

The scene in front of her finally became clear!

There was indeed a secret room of about 30 square meters under the trapdoor, but... there was no one in this secret room!

She walked in carefully with light steps, and then checked carefully.

Rena was sure, there was really no one here!

"How is that possible?!"

Simply canceling the [stealth] state, Reina took out a handful of night crow's flight feathers, a gold coin, and a small amount of powder extracted from monster materials from the package in her arms.

"Witness of night and shadow, patron of shadows, the hidden secrets are all under your control!"

Reciting softly the prayer corresponding to the divine spell.

Level 3 Shadow Magic [Secret Pursuit]!

This magical technique can reveal secret passages, mechanisms or traps in a nearby area for the stalker, and it can ignore many middle and low-level encryption and disguise methods.

A necessary skill for sliding doors and picking locks. After mastering this magical technique, stalkers can often easily pass through trap rooms or find hidden secret passages and rooms, except for some extremely heavily guarded places.

The material in his hand turned into a small purple-black shadow and disappeared, indicating that the magic was working.

A scene that surprised Lena then appeared.

The result she got was: there are no other mechanisms or secret passages in this secret room!

This is just an ordinary basement.

"Where's the dwarf who went in earlier?!"

Reina was 100% sure that while she was waiting outside the tapestry store to meet up with Peter and the others, no one had ever entered or left the store.

But the dwarf who once had a conflict with Peter just disappeared into the secret room under the trap door!

…

And, and more!
