"Didn't I say that Fleur should not be suspicious?" Zhao Xu said.

There's no telling what might be in the girls' room. In addition, Zhao Xu doesn't have that kind of hobby. If he finds anything weird during a rash search, it will only make him embarrassed when he sees Fleur in the future.

"That's what I said."

Antinoya said softly, "Just because she's fine, it doesn't mean that Tang De didn't lay any plans. Especially after listening to your story, I'm afraid the relationship between her and Tang De is not as fatherly and filial as the outside world thinks."

"Then let's go." Zhao Xu also nodded suddenly.

And Antinoya also took the opportunity to add an eight-ring "mental barrier" spell to him.

[Adventurer Zhongxia, you are affected by the eighth-level spell "Psychic Barrier". You ignore detection, magic that affects perception of thoughts or emotions, or devices with the same function, time: 24 hours]

Seeing this news, he felt a little more relaxed.

This means that from now on, he blocks all magic and effects that affect the mind, and also blocks the detection of prophecy spells and effects.

In this case, even if someone uses the "area detection" spell, he will seem to disappear.

Only the kind of "single detection" aimed at him, just like the one he used to search for the "Kuluoze" before, would be possible to be discovered.

But after hearing what Antinoya said, Zhao Xu also sounded the alarm in his heart.

If he had been an eighth-ring mage just now, he would have put a "psychic barrier" on himself without a second thought, and then used teleportation to break in.

This happened to fall into the eyes of the demon lord Graz'zt, and he even became prey again.

It seems that no matter how strong he is in the future, he will have to be more cautious. For example, he will teleport near the destination first, and then plan slowly.

"When I just saw you, I thought you broke in after applying the third-ring magic 'avoid detection' to yourself. You are quite brave." Antinoya commented.

"It's definitely a risk."

Zhao Xu nodded, after just doubting the possibility that Fleur was "in danger" and "a devil believer".

Because he was worried that he would push the opponent into the fire pit, he was a little anxious and did not use all the protective spells before starting the teleportation.

Otherwise, although the "avoid detection" spell cannot be immune to detection and still requires a caster level confrontation with the detection spell, it is also a powerful tool for him to fight against the entire command house's "spell monitoring network".

Immediately after Antinoya added a few more spells to Zhao Xu, they quietly left the underground sentry tower.

Although there was a large-scale attack by the Flaming Red Lips last night, the atmosphere in the commander's mansion was still very calm, and the servants were still preparing for the "grand party" that would be held later tonight.

As for the patrol frequency of the guards, it is not much different from when Zhao Xu was in the previous life.

"Teacher, don't we choose the spell 'Transformation of Spirit Body'?"

At this time, Zhao Xu and Antinoya were walking along the brick path in the backyard of the Commander's Mansion, paying attention to avoid pedestrians while conducting latent operations.

When Zhao Xu was conducting tests in the final scroll space, he tried to simulate a powerful mage from a certain period of history to take revenge.

At that time, when he sneaked into the castle, he chose to use the seven-ring spell "Transformation Spirit Body", so that his entire body was hidden in the spirit world.

Although his vision of the main material plane was blurry at that time, and his field of vision was also limited, compared with being "invisible", he would not even be "touched".

Entering any room will not be blocked by obstacles.

And now they are wearing the most powerful version of the nine-ring "ultimate invisibility". Although they will not leave any traces when they walk on the road, they will not be affected by being sprinkled with powder or water, and even the ability of "tremor perception" will not be able to reach them. Capture.

But if you really put a big net bag over your head and face, you can still notice it.

"It's very simple." Antinoya explained, "Because in the main material plane, the degree of freedom is greater, and it is very convenient for me to cast any spell."

"True Seeing can originally see through the existence of the 'spiritual world', so it has the same fatal flaw as the invisibility spell. But what if I am really discovered now?"

As she spoke, Antinoya looked at Zhao Xu with interest, "Even if someone does notice us with the 'True Sight' gem."

"His shouts are definitely not as fast as my 'Swift Burst' spell."

Zhao Xu also suddenly realized.

In the backyard of the Commander's Mansion, he was like a passerby in a zombie survival game with a knife, who could only keep avoiding dangerous points and moving forward.

But Antinoya came in with a submachine gun and fired at her every time he saw her. The "invisibility technique" was just to avoid trouble. If he was really discovered, he would just kill her instantly.

Whether a spell is powerful or not depends on its current ability.

After a while, Zhao Xu also found Fleur's bedroom by relying on the vague memories of his previous life.

Fleur's residence is located in a key location in the Commander's Mansion, and the courtyard itself is a separate building with a specially arranged small garden surrounded by inner fences and walls.

After getting together with several maids who were watering the water here, Zhao Xu and Antinoya quickly sneaked into Fleur's house.

The living room in the front is connected to the study, and the master bedroom is a little further back.

Although it was daytime at this time, because Fleur was not there, the internal environment seemed quite dark with the doors and windows closed.

"True Knowledge." Antinoya blessed Zhao Xu with this spell.

In an instant, all the darkness in front of him lost its effect in Zhao Xu's eyes, and even the secret door hidden by magic was revealed.

After just a cursory inspection and search, Zhao Xu could only shake his head and found nothing.

Even the daily record of small things that Fleur put on the table contained mostly trivial things.

Fleur obviously wants revenge, but in the environment controlled by the alliance leader Tang De, she will not reveal her true intentions.

Now that Zhao Xu wanted to look for clues, he asked Yu Blind.

"Teacher, change place?"

Zhao Xu had already walked into Fleur's bedroom with Antinoya, which was somewhat beyond Zhao Xu's expectation.

When I met Fleur once, the other person was dressed very hotly. He was wearing a low-cut top and even his long legs were exposed on the spot.

But at the moment, her bedroom is very simple, and there is not even a hint of lace that little girls like.

At this time, Antinoya also opened Fleur's clothing display window and opened the row of dresses above. She gently placed her fingers on the corners of the clothes and brushed them, as if feeling the material.

At this time, Zhao Xu's ears twitched slightly and he sent a message to Antinoya's mind on the spot.

"The maid outside said that Fleur doesn't come here to stay here very often. She has a yard outside the city. She doesn't come back very often unless there are special celebrations."

When Zhao Xu passed by the maids just now, he put down the monitoring coin. Unexpectedly, he actually heard some inside information.

This also explains why Tongfrei was able to secretly leave and participate in the attack with him.

"No, that's just right." Antinoya replied.

"Although it's subtle, I feel that the devil's aura in this area is a bit stronger."

After hearing this, Zhao Xu couldn't help but open his eyes and take a closer look.

But when he came back to his senses, he realized that the "detect evil" spell was only effective with magic items.

"Idiot." Antinoya looked at Zhao Xu's ready-to-move expression and couldn't help laughing, "As long as you have fought with demons, you can feel it to some extent, but you don't have much contact, so you don't feel it deeply. "

"But?" Zhao Xu said and rubbed the dressing table beside him with his hand. Under the influence of his secret vision, there were only a few magic items in the room full of things.

And these furniture, if intruded by this demonic aura for a long time, can easily turn into demonic objects.

After all, he was the one who had fought against the Demon Lord "Graz'zt" twice, but he didn't notice it at all.

"Isn't it strange that these tables don't have demonic aura attached to them? Logically speaking, the style of these tables has been there for a year and a half, but they haven't been contaminated at all. Isn't it a bit strange?"

"Yeah." Zhao Xu nodded.

"It's very simple. When this room is cleaned regularly, it is wiped with holy water to cover it up." Antinoya explained.

"Isn't this too cautious?" Zhao Xu chuckled.

Then he immediately pulled aside the dresses that Antinoya had touched just now. His fingers touched them lightly, and he immediately felt a strange sense of familiarity.

If Antinoya had not reminded him just now, he would not have been able to remember what it was.

Maybe he just turned a blind eye.

But now, he understands.

After the house smelled of demons for a long time, the furniture was wiped and cleaned regularly so no traces were left.

But the same cannot be said for these dresses, which cannot be washed with the furniture.

"These dresses will naturally be ironed with holy water before wearing them, so they won't be visible. But now, naturally there are flaws." Antinoya explained.

Generally speaking.

The only things that can continue to exude this demonic aura in Arthur's world are the demon's temple altars and the like.

At this time, Zhao Xu also looked at the black and white carpet on the ground. He walked to the corner and opened it.

A burst of dust was rolled up along with the ripples of the carpet, but what caught their eyes was a brick and stone floor that was tightly built without leaving a few gaps.

There is no secret door, otherwise there would be nothing to hide from his "true knowledge".

"You guessed it right." Antinoya said, "The devil altar is underground. There used to be a secret passage here, but it was blocked by mud long ago. If you want to get down, you can only rely on magic. .”

"Teacher, how do you know?"

Zhao Xu finally had a family business in a "brick burning factory" in his previous life, so he didn't even notice that the ground had been deliberately aged, so that there was no trace of the secret room being sealed.

"It's very simple. I have lurked through the construction archives and change history of this inner city."

"After Fleur was recognized, this place was renovated. Then, I checked the whereabouts of the craftsmen who participated in the renovation. As of today, most of them are dead."

After hearing this, Zhao Xu couldn't help but sigh.

This shows that his mentor had doubts from the beginning and came directly to the target.

"Zhongxia, this is another lesson to teach you."

"Whether your spell is effective for the strong is another matter, but it is a great weapon for ordinary people."

"And the most important part of Arthur's human beings are these ordinary people who have no ability to fight or defend at all."

"The intelligence they obtain can sometimes allow you to get twice the result with half the effort and find the key directly."

Antinoya said loudly after landing.

Seeing Zhao Xu nodding in agreement, she also looked satisfied.

Naturally, she would not tell Zhao Xu now that what she was talking about was actually information provided after searching and sorting out the dark disk.

Even though she didn't have this information, when she saw the ground, she could still detect signs of wear with her search skills.
