The place where Jiang Ling asked Ember and Luoshui Yiren to investigate was a small town that seemed to have been abandoned for a long time.

After arriving at the coordinate point marked in the mission description, they checked the town from south to north. No suspicious clues were found. Ember said, "Find a place with a good view and just use that thing."

"OK."

Luoshui Yiren nodded.

The two arrived at the center of the town, at the top of a tower overlooking most of the town. Luoshui Yiren took out a scroll from her storage space.

The unknown spellcaster who appeared at No. 10081 came to this town several years ago.

This time is not long, but it is not short either.

At least in this kind of uninhabited abandoned town, it is not impossible for some originally clear traces to become blurred or even disappear directly.

So before the two set out, Jiang Ling gave them three scrolls.

The effect of the scrolls is to show traces of the action of magic with a specific frequency in a certain area, and these three scrolls were inscribed by the nameless spellcaster before he embarked on his journey.

As Luoshui Yiren tore open the scroll.

A ball of light green magic power that was sealed in it spread instantly and turned into a point of light covering a radius of several kilometers centered on the two people.

Then, in the same direction as when the two entered the town, eye-catching red light spots converged into a roughly human shape.

That is the image of the unknown spellcaster.

Through the activity trace of the photo, Ember and Luoshui Yiren noticed that when the unknown spellcaster arrived a few years ago, the town did not seem to be as abandoned as it is now.

In several places, the photos show deliberate pauses and small turns, as if communicating with people, and you can also see the behavior of avoiding pedestrians while traveling.

And the place where the photo finally disappeared...

"Church?"

Luoshui Yiren looked at the spire building not far from the tower.

"Let's go and have a look."

I saw with my own eyes that the photo disappeared after entering the church. I waited until the magic power sealed in the scroll was exhausted and the light spots all over the town dissipated, but I didn't see it coming out, Ember said.

The two descended from the tower and walked towards the church they had briefly inspected before.

Unlike last time, when they just took a quick glance, this time, the two of them checked more carefully.

"Here...there seems to be traces of battle?"

The side door connected to the living room. Luo Shuiyi pointed at a hollow in the corner that didn't look obvious.

Since this trace has been simply repaired, it is easy to miss it if you are not careful.

Following this line of thinking, the two continued to observe, and soon found similar, processed traces of battles in many places in the church.

He looked to Ember for advice, and after he nodded.

Luoshui Yiren took out the second scroll and tore it open.

Light green magical light spots cover the church.

It can be seen from the photos that after entering the church, the unknown spellcaster first walked around the hall and stopped for a moment when he came to the pastor's podium. He may be communicating with the pastor or someone else, or he may simply be Observing something.

After a moment, she turned and walked towards the door.

Everything was fine when we got here.

But just when she was about to walk out, the nameless spellcaster suddenly turned back. From the trajectory of the light spots that formed the upper body part of the picture, it can be seen that she was probably fighting something at this time.

As for the place where the light spot finally disappeared, it overlapped with the stone statue in the hall behind the pastor's podium.

"I can't move, it seems to be locked by some mechanism."

Luoshui Yiren went over to try it, shook her head at Ember, and her eyes fell on the irregular patterns on the stone platform at the bottom of the stone statue: "When I inspected the church before, I saw similar patterns on a wall behind it. This You probably want us to decrypt it?"

"Take two steps back and let me try first."

Ember waved to Luoshui Yiren.

When she came to her side, Ember raised a finger, and a cluster of flames jumped up from her fingertips.

"Huh~~~"

Blow out in one breath.

The flame, which was originally only two or three centimeters long, suddenly expanded to the height of several people.

The stone statue wrapped in this flame melted at a speed visible to the naked eye, revealing a passage leading to the ground.

Click, click, click——

Stupid!

Before Ember could observe further, the sound of springs turning and the sound of metal and stone ringing could be heard.

Looking around, the two of them discovered that the doors, windows and other exits in the entire church had been sealed with iron bars.

"Why don't you outsiders just take a look around and pretend you didn't find anything and leave?"

A hoarse voice that seemed to have not interacted with anyone for a long time and was not very fluent when speaking came: "Since you have discovered it, let's stay... It's really troublesome. We have to clean it up again soon."

The words fell.

On the beams at the top of the church, there were more than a dozen figures that were still humanoid, but crawled on all fours like wild beasts. With their sharp claws, they could easily move the wall to the ground and surrounded the two of them from all directions.

[You are affected by the [Demon Suppression Array]...]

[You are exempt from this impact]

The effect of the demon-suppressing array is to indiscriminately interfere with the smoothness of energy dispatch in the bodies of all units within the range of the array. It is no exaggeration to say that it cuts the main artery of the caster.

If you are a veteran spellcaster with rich combat experience and some experience in dealing with various dangerous situations, falling into this situation will not be a big problem.

But if it is a newcomer, such as the unknown spellcaster...

Fortunately, my talent can directly exempt me.

Before those humanoid beasts could approach, Ember raised her hand.

A ring of fire protected him and Luoshui Yiren.

-3688! (Your fire intensity has exceeded the upper limit that [The Sinker] can withstand, and this attack is converted into fatal damage)

[You killed [The Sinker] and gained 175 experience points]

More than a dozen identical prompts popped up instantly.

Although the tactic of attacking the target from all directions and multiple angles at the same time is simple, it can directly catch the target off guard, especially when the target is a spell caster and the battle field is engraved with a demon-suppressing formation.

From this point of view, the person who designed this trap obviously knows the caster well.

But if the target is not affected by the demon-suppressing formation, or even if it is affected, but still has the strength to end the battle in an instant, this operation will be reversed into a moth flying into the flame.
