After a pause, Richard continued: "So, from these several explorations, the other party should be able to clearly notice that the explorers are getting stronger every time. This is the fourth time we have come here. Although the number of people is very large, Less, but according to logic, it is definitely more powerful than the previous three times.
Therefore, the other party began to be unable to accurately determine our true strength. In order to ensure its own safety and ensure that it can eliminate us again, it had to adopt more conservative methods. Before, the surveillance I mentioned was one method, and the other was the temptation to drive the moose to attack us this time.
More than thirty demonized moose are indeed not too strong, but they are not too weak either. At least a single ordinary third-level wizard would not dare to confront him head-on. He would have to use some smarter means to solve the problem in a roundabout way. In terms of combat effectiveness, it is almost equivalent to one-half of the previous third batch of Silent Forest Exploration Team.
In this case, more than thirty demonized moose are undoubtedly a good benchmark of combat effectiveness, which can be used to test our true level. "
"Is that so?" Holo nodded.
Bobo Bo Vicki was still hiccupping, but the hiccups did not affect his talk at all. He raised his hand and objected: "If the culprit really tested our strength through the demonized moose, hiccup, then how did it know the outcome of the battle? , Hi burp!"
"Generally speaking, if the other party wants to achieve this goal, there are two ways. One is to stay nearby and observe - but this method is too dangerous. If the other party is wise enough, they will never choose it." Richard said.
"Another method is to let the eyeliner observe here and then report to the other party - this is relatively safe, and if the eyeliner is discovered and killed by us, the other party can further deduce our strength from the side."
"So, there is an informant of the other party near us? Then as long as we find the other party, can we follow up quietly and find the culprit? Hi!" Bobo Bo Vicki said. At the end, in order to prevent being heard, Cover your mouth with your hands and try to lower your voice.
"Theoretically, it is indeed feasible." Richard nodded and said seriously, "For this reason, I have been paying attention to the situation nearby since the middle of the battle."
At this point, Richard paused and frowned: "It's just that until now, I haven't found any clues about the eyeliner, and I can't help but think about what went wrong."
"Perhaps this spy has some special means and is too hidden. So as long as the other party doesn't take the initiative to expose it, we won't be able to detect it at all," Holo said.
"In this case, how can we find each other?" Popo Bo Vicki asked.
"I don't know." Holo shook her head, and then she noticed that Richard and Popovich looked at her at the same time, specifically, at her left hand.
She raised her left hand without warning, stretched out a finger, and pointed straight in one direction to the side.
"Where is it?" Holo looked over with confusion. Richard and Bobo Bo Vicki looked over together, and then saw a black shadow running out, bursting out at an unimaginable speed, and escaping deep into the forest.
"It's the eyeliner!" Holo's eyes lit up and she jumped up to catch up.
"Hurry up and catch it!" Bobo Bo Vicki said urgently, and then let out a long burp, "Hi-burp-"
"It's too fast!" Holo said worriedly as she burst into speed to catch up. "It's impossible to lock the figure, and the trees will block it, so it's easy to lose it."
"No, I will keep looking at it!" Richard said at this time, his eyes flashed, and he had used the perspective function of the Gazing Eye.
A large amount of free energy elements flow out from the source of the law, are injected into the eyes, and then released to the outside world, penetrating many obstacles and turning them transparent.
As more and more free energy elements are consumed, the area of perspective continues to increase, allowing Richard to successfully lock on the blurred traces of the black shadow.
At this time, the world in Richard's eyes was gray, and there were many chaotic lines right in front of him. Behind the many lines, an irregular spot moves quickly, hiding towards a place where the lines are denser.
"Let me see what your identity is." Richard murmured in a low voice. He stretched out his hands, and a large number of bright light spots appeared, covering his whole body, forming a set of shining armor.
Armor of Achilles!
This is also what Richard learned while studying the magic materials of the Truth Society. It can be regarded as a combination of Longtonik's Spear and Emslie's Shield, which has both powerful defense and powerful attack.
The powerful defense is easy to understand, but the powerful attack is a bit twitchy.
However, in Richard's understanding, this kind of attack is very efficient when used to do one thing, and that is...
"boom!"
Richard bent his legs slightly, jumped up, locked on the trace of the escapee, and chased after him at high speed. Encountering trees and rocks along the way, we stayed in a straight line and shortened the distance without turning at all.
Doing so can save time on the one hand. On the other hand, after opening the Eye of Gaze, all obstacles are lines. It is too troublesome to distinguish them one by one. It is better to penetrate directly through them roughly.
In this way, Richard, who started later, slowly overtook Holo, who started first, and was getting closer and closer to the escape route.
As for Bobo Bovich, he was hiccupping while trying to keep up, and fell behind.
…
A few minutes later.
Under Richard's command, Holo and Bobo Bovich were on the left and right, cooperating with him to semi-surround the escaping informants and force them to a low-lying area, preparing to capture the other party.
As a result, just when the final effort was about to be exerted, the ground suddenly cracked open, and multiple black shadows rushed out like pythons, wrapping around the bodies of the three people. Taking a closer look, there are several blue-grey demonized vines.
This vine was obviously intended to intercept the three people and help the informant escape.
Richard knew this very well and shouted decisively: "Don't worry about them, get rid of them quickly and continue chasing!"
Both Holo and Popovich were smart people. After hearing this, they didn’t need to say it a second time and responded with actions.
Bobo Bovich suddenly drank a piece of grass-green potion. As soon as he stopped hiccupping, except for his hair, eyebrows and other hair, his skin was dyed a layer of light green.
Therefore, Bobo Bo Vicki's strength increased greatly, and he forcibly broke away from the demonized vines wrapped around his thighs, and rushed towards the eyeliner.
Holo twisted her body, and her figure disappeared out of thin air. She dodged the vines and appeared a few meters away, rushing towards the eyeliner.
Richard let more free energy elements flow into the Achilles Armor on his body. His whole body lit up, his speed increased dramatically, he shook off the vines and rushed towards the eyeliner.
The eyeliner is getting closer...
At this moment, there was a "crash", and a crack appeared again in the ground in front of Richard and the others.
…
