Tonight's operation was a success, hehe.

Seeing that every human being present owed Rexor a favor, Xia Zuo began to arrange the retreat of the strange demons.

The Blood Wax Lemurs were divided into two teams, one more and one less.

A large team of blood wax lemures circled around the master demon hunter and the family guards, forcing the enemies back with their bodies that were about to expand and explode.

The smaller number of blood wax lemures took advantage of the enemy's sight being blocked to steal an alchemy device from the edge of the battlefield.

When the blood wax lemures, who had left with the alchemy device, arrived 100 meters south of the underwater melting cave, the blood wax lemures left in the cave immediately blew themselves up, blocking the pursuit of the pursuers with a series of bloody explosions. Way to go.

A huge mouth as dark as an abyss opened on the bottom of the sea.

The blood wax lemure carrying the alchemy device jumped in, handed the alchemy device to the figure in the giant mouth, and then turned into blood and disappeared.

The huge mouth of the abyss closed, and amidst the swaying of sand and rocks, the huge No. 13 vest, the Abyss Walker, got into the soft seabed sand bed and swam quickly farther to the south.

Swimming in the sand bed can reduce the noise caused by churning sea water and avoid being discovered by the witcher master and family guards.

At the same time, the sand of alien time mixed in the sand bed can also effectively create disordered areas and interfere with the tracking of time and space spells.

The two effects were superimposed, which directly caused Rexor and Chixa who were chasing after them to lose track of the enemy. They could only look at the endless darkness ahead and let out a long sigh.

"Master, thank you for your help." Chiksa was wearing a diving suit with excellent protective effect. When he spoke, his voice came out through the alchemy sound device installed on the glass mask, which seemed particularly dull in the deep sea environment.

Rexor glanced at the other party, then turned to look at the messy underwater melting cave. The family guards there were cleaning the battlefield and cleaning up the blood of strange demons stained on the melting cave and alchemy equipment to prevent the blood of strange demons from being infected. The toxin caused the transmission channel to close unexpectedly.

"What are you doing here?" Rexor's expression was rigid and serious, with no trace of the joy of winning the battle.

"We..." Chiksa recalled the words he had prepared a long time ago, "We are carrying out a top-secret mission."

"Top-secret mission?" Rexor's mouth twitched, revealing a sarcastic smile, "Then as a master demon hunter, I have to protect you and prevent the top-secret mission from failing."

After speaking, Rexor took the lead in swimming towards the underwater melting cave.

Chiksa hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, opened his arms and stopped Rexor halfway, and said quickly:

"Wait a minute, Master. This top-secret mission has additional confidentiality rights. All unauthorized temple members are not allowed to approach the mission site. Not even the master demon hunter."

"Oh? Really?" Rexor walked around the opponent's side, still maintaining the posture of approaching the underwater melting cave step by step:

"Then take out the task order. If you can't see the task order, I will just treat the mission you mentioned as a normal top-secret mission.

"Although you verbally mentioned the additional confidentiality authority, according to the special provisions of the Temple Law, Article 22, Paragraph 4, when the Demon Hunting School intervenes in a desperate mission with additional confidentiality authority due to its responsibilities, it enjoys certain rights. Immunity of Liability.”

Rexor stopped and looked at Chiksa, who was following closely beside him, and read a lot from the fearful expression on his face.

Rexor said with an emphasis:

"The immunity from responsibility granted to me by the Temple Law allows me to protect all people and things related to top-secret missions on the premise of doing my duty. This is the privilege and responsibility granted to the Demon Hunting School by the Temple Law. You still have to block Are you following me?"

Chixa opened his mouth, but he really couldn't find any reason to argue, not to mention that the other party had just saved him and asked the family guards to control Rexor, which obviously violated Chixa's conscience.

“After muddy water settles, dirt will always float on the surface, or dirty things will sink to the bottom.”

Rexall said a famous saying commonly used in the temple territory. This sentence is usually used to persuade members of an evil organization to become one's spies or tainted witnesses:

"Some people need to pay for what they have done. Do you want to be that person? Or do you want to draw a line with them?"

Chixa's expression flickered, with light and dark overlapping, and he no longer stopped Rexor from approaching the molten cave on the seabed.

At the same time, in the Western Continent, in a secret base in the western mountains, Xia Zuo was tinkering with the alchemy device sent by the vests.

When the transmission channel transmits objects, it will inevitably generate some excess energy fluctuations.

The alchemy device Xia Zuo got is the [Remaining Energy Collector] that collects energy fluctuations and stores them.

Before the alchemy device was sent over, it had been disguised by the vest and the time and space information had been tampered with, so there was no need to worry about the device being tracked by the Augusta family.

Xia Zuo can safely dismantle it and look for the core component-the energy ripple identification module.

Just like what is said in the classics that introduce teleportation knowledge, in order to ensure the accuracy of teleportation, at least two teleportation channels with the same teleportation code must be arranged in advance.

This transmission principle directly leads to a major hidden danger:

As long as you have the identification code of one transmission channel, you can try to contact other transmission channels with the same identification code.

If the Augusta family did not do any additional processing on the transmission identification code, then Xia Zuo would probably directly search for other secret transmission channels.

Unfortunately, the Augusta family is not a fool. They have a large number of tower scholars specializing in teleportation. The teleportation identification codes woven by this group of people come with ultra-high-strength encryption methods.

The transmission identification code that Xia Zuo obtained from the Yuneng collector contained a mask of tens of thousands of words. Theoretically, it would take at least three years to decipher the real transmission identification code.

But with the help of the [Space-time Phase Simulator], the cracking process was compressed to ten minutes.

When Xia Zuo's colorful light dissipated, his mind recorded the real transmission identification code obtained from the future timeline.

After obtaining this identification code that was enough to cause trouble to the Augusta family, Xia Zuo did not choose to find other transmission channels himself. Instead, he copied the identification code to an alchemy card, intending to use his vest and fort to Mage, turn over to Rexor.

The specific delivery time of the identification code is yet to be determined. When the time is right, it will naturally appear in front of Rexor.

At the same time, the ocean depths in the southern part of the Western Continent.

Chixa followed closely beside the Demon Hunter Master, and he coyly prevented Rexor from touching the alchemy device. He did not dare to stop him forcefully, and could only repeat words such as "The alchemy device in the top secret mission is protected by law" and so on. , hoping that Rexor would stop, turn around and leave here.

Rexor ignored Chiksa who was like a fly. He emptied the seabed cave and stared at the oval transmission port of the transmission channel.

After all, he was not a knowledgeable tower scholar and could not judge all the functions of these alchemical devices on the spot, let alone directly lock the key devices and take them away under some excuse.

All he can do now is record the scene with the Image Orb hanging around his waist, and wait until he returns to Starry Night Academy to find helpers to interpret the images in the Image Orb to see what important clues can be found.

Today, Rexor probably understands what happened in the Western Continent.

It is obvious that the Augusta family betrayed the temple to some extent and leaked a transmission channel involving the safety of the Western Continent to the Strange Demon Church.

During this process, members of the Augusta family directly related to this case committed at least three felonies:

The first is the crime of privately constructing, maintaining, and using illegal transmission channels. This crime is often related to the crime of liaison with the Strange Demon Church, but it will not be sentenced together with the crime of liaison with the Strange Demon Church. Instead, it will be punished as a separate crime.

The second felony is collaborating with the enemy. Providing funding to the Strange Demon Church in any way can be regarded as a crime of collaborating with the enemy. The act of providing a transmission channel for the Church of Strange Demons will result in an additional level of crime and a severe punishment.

The third sin is treason. Betraying the temple, betraying the laws, betraying the camp, any violation will result in expulsion from the temple membership.

The more serious the crime, the more difficult it is to collect evidence.

On the one hand, this is because felons are often experienced and will not easily leave behind traces and hidden dangers, which makes the tracking of the demon hunting school more difficult. On the other hand, felons are ruthless and will usually die together with the demon hunting school.

Rexall no longer has to worry about his own safety for the time being.

Just look at Chiksa's appearance and you will know that this guy is an alchemist with a strong aura of alchemy. He has received a formal academic education and will not kill someone just after saving his life.

Of course, it's not entirely without danger.

Rexall must collect evidence as soon as possible and leave before the help of the Augusta family arrives.

With Bovaru Augusta's temperament and ability, he would definitely send a more powerful team of family guards to intercept the master demon hunter when Chixa performed poorly.

At that time, the person Rexor will face will truly be called decisive in killing, and he will definitely not have any scruples because of his status as a master demon hunter.

Rexor stood by the teleportation channel for a while, waiting for the image orb in his waist to fill up the image screen, then walked to the entrance of the molten cave with a calm expression, nodded to Chiksa, and said calmly:

"It seems that you are indeed performing a top-secret mission to protect the transmission channel. Although the path of this transmission channel is unclear, I choose to believe what you said."

Rexor left calmly, leaving Chiksa with a back that gradually shrank and finally merged into the black sea water.

The master demon hunter had just left for less than three minutes when a voice came from the communication device on Chiksa asking about the progress.

Chiksa dealt with the family's inquiries in a very awkward manner.

He failed to successfully close the transmission channel, nor did he drive away the master demon hunter, and he also lost an alchemy device to collect excess energy. No matter what, he would not be able to escape a lesson, and he might even lose the right to meditate deeply on the Yunhai rooftop. .

Chiksa, who was in a state of anxiety, lost his mind amid the questions. He looked around in the sea cave with blank eyes. The last one shook violently, came to his senses, and called up the timer that came with the diving suit. The machine looked at it.

A look of joy, like the aftermath of a disaster, suddenly appeared on his face!

It's only 2 o'clock in the morning!

Bovaru once clearly stated that the exact time Rexall found the molten cave was between 3 and 6 in the morning.

The actual time when Rexor appeared here far exceeded Bovaru's prediction.

Chiksa became as excited as if he had found a life-saving straw. He found the best excuse to shirk responsibility:

There was an obvious deviation in the intelligence provided by Bovaru, which directly caused Chiksa to close the transmission channel slowly, and then he was bumped into by Rexor who arrived here in advance.

Chiksa argued with the voice in the communication device, and the questioning and counter-questioning between the two parties bought Rexor precious time to escape.

After some pushback from Chiksa, it wasn't until 20 minutes later that another team of family guards arrived.

At this time, apart from the sound of gurgling water, no uninvited guests could be seen in the surrounding sea.

While the Augusta Family Guards were searching for the whereabouts of the Demon Hunter Master, Rexall had already arrived on the southern coastline of the Western Continent and joined Xia Zuo who was guarding here.

Rexor told Xia Zuo not to ask any more questions with a serious expression, and then hurried on, flying in the direction of Starry Night Academy under the cover of night.

Xia Zuo knew that tonight's operation went smoothly, so he only showed appropriate confusion on his face and did not ask Rexor what he did tonight.

The two flew silently in the sky, minimizing their own energy fluctuations, bypassing the temple army stationed outside Starry Night City, crossing the top of the mountain from the back of the Storm Mountains, and landing on the tower of Starry Night Castle.

"Xia Zuo, please go back first. If I need your help, I will tell you through blood induction."

Rexor waved his hand towards Xia Zuo and walked directly to his temporary residence.

Xia Zuo watched the other party leave and showed a meaningful smile.

The dark dormitory, Rexall's temporary residence.

When the bald man pressed the door handle, he sensed the strange figure in the house who did not conceal his energy fluctuations.

Rexor immediately clenched the blood magic sword in his hand, thinking about the stranger's purpose waiting for him in the room.

Transparent water flowed out from the crack in the door and gathered on the door panel outside the door.

Rexor retreated slowly as if facing a formidable enemy, lowering his body's center of gravity, ready to resist sudden attacks at any time.

The water flow on the door did not explode, but quickly changed color and shape, forming a sentence written with water energy:

We have a common enemy, Rexor. Let's have a good chat. Maybe we can come to an agreement and become secret allies.

Thoughts were surging in Rexall's mind. After hesitating for a few seconds, he decided to walk through the door to see who the other party was.

"Click..." Rexor turned the door handle and walked into the dark room.

"Who are you?" Rexor looked sideways at the figure beside the window sill. The demon hunter's senses told him that the other person was a strange creature made purely of energy, like a high-level elemental servant, but without any The characteristic dullness and stiffness of the elemental servants.

"We actually fought against each other, Rexor."

The figure next to the window sill lifted his hood:

"You may not know my name or codename, but you must have some idea of ​​my abilities."

The two parties began to move, circling around the center point between the two. The stranger walked half a circle and came to a place close to the door, while Rexor walked the other half circle and stopped by the window where the stranger was originally. .

The frosty moonlight passed through the window, leaving Rexor's shadow on the floor and illuminating the stranger's face without features.
