The Truth of Magic Chapter 183: Goal Altar (2/4)
At this time, the middle-aged mage with advanced "spell guard" also looked puzzled, his eyes hovering on Lei An and Zhao Xu, wondering whether it was true that the young mage in front of him had inferred it himself. ?
instead of what Lei An revealed to him.
At this time, Zhao Xu's eyes were brighter and brighter, and the entire logical chain in his mind was connected at this moment.
This kind of dopamine secreted by the successful deduction of the results instantly wiped out his frustration after witnessing the death of the four young men and women.
"Let’s return the problem to the beginning. It is understandable that the ‘Deep Purgatory’ does not go back to Mystra, but why the other party wants to do it here, and there is no trace of it even after the killing."
Ordinary people may not be able to deal with it, but with the devil's means, even if it is hundreds of people, the other party has the ability to cover up those corpses.
"You can't guess what choice the chaotic evil demon makes, but the lawful devil does so, it can only be attributed to the other party having to do this."
At this time, Zhao Xu's eyes were full of confidence, and the other priests and the three floating city magic guards all looked at him, waiting for his next speech.
At this time, Lei An lowered his head slightly, pondering what Zhao Xu said.
" Originally it could control Andy and directly chose'Advanced Teleportation' to escape. But the existence of these four people, and my witnesses, prevented him from concealing traces and taking Andy away. He even looked back at my request. They will all go to the church of the goddess to worship. Even if the four are secretly killed, but one of them has the son of the secretary of the Mystral Administrative Office, he will definitely bring investigation."
"So it simply took four people as sacrifices, creating a killing that would be discovered by others, spreading fear, and bursting power to support this ritual to hide its location. At the same time, it chose to be near the stream. I guess it was also to expand the ceremony. Scope."
"This shows that the absolute coverage of this ritual is limited, and that'Deep Purgatory' is around here."
Zhao Xu said confidently.
At this time, Lei An shook his head deliberately, "This is not necessarily true. This kind of concealment ceremony can only last for a period of time. With the passage of time, the hidden power will eventually disappear. At this time, the deep Hell Fiends no longer have the power to block the'perceived location'."
"This is just to let it slow down its exposure for ten and a half days.".
Zhao Xu smiled when he heard this.
If he didn't see the limited duration of this ritual, then he might still question himself.
But he has seen through this at the very beginning, and this point will become a strong chain of evidence for his speculation.
"This shows that there must be altars of related demons around here."
After Zhao Xu said it, he found that the faces of everyone around him were still calm.
At this moment, with a clear mind, he immediately understood.
A similar case happened in "Rosic Cross"!
"Flap, pop, pop." Lei An couldn't help clapping his palms. At this moment, he looked at Zhao Xu's expression, no longer the original scornful gaze, but a straight face.
"Dawn Era, in 1724, the prince of the Casa Empire disappeared. At that time, it was discovered that all twenty followers who followed him were all killed. The blood stained the nearby streams red. That was exactly the same time. The "Deep Infernal Demon" used killing as a ritual and hid in the altar nest deep in the hunting ground. Later, after the legendary mage was specifically asked to intervene, the existence of the "Deep Infernal Demon" was searched for."
Lei An looked at Zhao Xu with satisfaction, "Now your stage is about to come to an end for a while, and leave it to me next."
After he finished speaking, he looked heroic and looked firmly at his hands, "Contact the Mystral City Guards, with this stream as the center, within a radius of 20 miles, search for me."——
Zhao Xu gently took off the VR simulation helmet and turned over from under the bed.
It is almost two or three o'clock in the morning, the power lights of the VR helmets of Zhang Qi and Chen Sinan have been turned off, and the standby lights are flashing.
showed that they were also asleep at the moment, but they didn't take off the helmet. Another roommate, Liu Hanqiang, snored slightly.
Zhao Xu walked on tiptoe to the balcony of the dormitory softly, turned on the faucet to keep it under a small amount of water, and took a handful of water to wash his face and wake up.
The balcony of the dormitory is not big. On the left is a sink and a washing machine purchased by Zhao Xu and the four of them. On the right is the door to the toilet and bathroom. The middle position is about three square meters.
Zhao Xu lightly leaned on the stone brick guardrail of the balcony and looked through the lush branches of the banyan tree in front.
In the next two days, "Rosicrucian" will summon forces to search that entire area.
Even Wang Ningwei and their team of wizards that were originally going to kill the bandits will be called up again as soon as they go online tomorrow to directly participate in the search for the demon altar on the spot.
Naturally, these people are not going to participate in the hunting down of the demon, but just looking for the traces of the altar.
The task of Zhao Xu that he brought with him has also directly become part of the search.
This is also Zhao Xu’s suggestion to Lei An from the "Rosicrucian" trainees.
Zhao Xu really wanted to complete this matter by himself and participate in solving it by himself, so after considering his next guardianship task, he directly suggested Lei An to make changes.
Needless to say, Lei An agreed.
And Zhao Xu also unknowingly discovered that he has also become an existence that can affect the player's mission.
Maybe one day, it will be his turn to post tasks to the players.
But in this way, the mutual understanding that Zhao Xu finally established with Wang Ningwei was in vain.
In fact, the novice wizards will not know tomorrow. The original source of everything is because Zhao Xu searched for them to find nearby unexpected conditions, and they accidentally encountered a demon possession and killing incident, which caused their own mission to be killed. change.
According to Lei'an, the ownership of the two magic items, the "Eternal Wand" and the "Invisible Ring", can already be obtained with the discovery and prevention of his actions.
But the other one will be given to those who find clues to the altar as a reward.
This also saves Zhao Xu a little bit, but it also means that he must seize the opportunity in the search team next.
The value of the two magic items in Zhao Xu's hand is among the top ones among the magic items currently obtained by players.
The only regret is that the devil, an alien creature, is naturally immune to fire element damage, so his "fireball eternal wand" is really useless.
At this time, Zhao Xu had no need to keep secrets, so he took out his mobile phone, and briefly posted tonight's experience to the group and told Wang Ningwei and Eswig.
Especially about the cause and effect of the ritual and the power of "Deep Purgatory", he specially emphasized it.
Tomorrow "Rosic Cross" will naturally re-divide them into groups. At that time, Zhao Xu will also need two women to help him, so that he can obtain the remaining magic item.
After finishing these, Zhao Xu also continued to stand.
Unconsciously, he had a slight influence on Arthur, especially the city of Mystra.
Tonight’s incident will surely be abbreviated as a report by the "Rosic Cross" book, which will be secretly sent to the major churches of good gods and major organizations for notification.
Speaking of it, the "Infernal Purgatory" was also unlucky enough to meet Zhao Xu, otherwise the other party should have successfully completed the ceremony tonight, and continue to go to Mystra to hide, and then secretly develop the **** power.
Suddenly, a vibrating sound came from Zhao Xu's cell phone.
【Eiswig: Your experience tonight is a bit weird. I would have known that I would not go offline and go on patrol with you. 】
【Wang Ningwei: Mr. Midsummer is really great, like an unsung hero, stopping the hiding of the devil. 】
Both women are smart people~ IndoMTL.com~ From Zhao Xu's brief words, I can feel how many confrontations Zhao Xu has experienced tonight.
and being able to directly cross the floating city, let their group of players directly change tasks and be called up, but also because of a suggestion from the person in front of them.
In fact, ordinary people, even in the cemetery in the game, will feel fear just by approaching.
It’s also a warrior like Zhao Xu who has hacked the undead in his previous life, so that he is so fearless, sitting next to the cemetery and slowly flipping through the newly acquired notes.
【Eswig: In a few days, why you are participating in a mission that is already at the safe level of saving the world, and we are just staying at the eradication of bandits. 】
[Midsummer: Blow lightly. 】
【Wang Ningwei: Haha, it's rare that Mr. Midsummer is so humble. 】
And after Zhao Xu and the two women had commercial exchanges, and then after the two women's explanation, Zhao Xu also understood why the two did not act when they met the goblin group during the day.
So everyone thought of going together.
But this incident was also turned over directly, and the three of them began to carefully communicate the specific plans for tomorrow.
In the process of communicating with Lei An later tonight, Zhao Xu had a clue to the map, and he was sure to focus on those places first, which was why he needed the assistance of the two women.
His gaze fell on a watch tower on the edge of the stream in the sketch map drawn for the two women.
