After he was completely conscious and made sure that he was no longer affected by the illusion, Duke swept away the outstretched branches and broke them, and then returned to his tent to check on who was in the same place with him.

After all, the first thing he encountered in his dream was that Tiger was missing, and he was still reassured not to really confirm his condition.

Fortunately, Tiger didn't run away like a dream, and he also fell into the illusion, and at this time he was holding his quilt and burst into tears, with a whimpering choking sound in his mouth, and he didn't know what sad things he dreamed of.

Seeing him so sad, Duke couldn't bear to disturb him, intending to make him cry first, and he wasn't sure if it would be a good or bad thing to wake him up.

Anyway, with his two encounters in the illusion, it didn't seem to be too dangerous, so in the end, he only looked at it a few times and made sure that Tiger was okay, and then left his tent in the middle of the camp to check on the rest of the soldiers.

As a result, he didn't take a few steps to find that almost all the soldiers had left the camp, but their eyes were strangely closed.

Some of them are holding their weapons and wooden stakes, some are dancing, and some are shaking their heads and don't know what they are doing.

For a moment, Duke was a little hesitant, not knowing if such a group illusion could forcibly wake everyone up, so he wanted to go to Lenia on duty to discuss it first.

And such a big thing happened, and as a result, Lenia has not warned him so far, which also makes him secretly a little anxious in his heart.

After carefully bypassing a few soldiers who were dancing around, Duke was startled by the sight before him.

He saw that the ten dwarven warriors brought by the anvil were closing their eyes in a circle like the schoolchildren he had known in his previous life, each holding a wooden cup the size of a bowl and half a head high, and gulping down the spring water scooped up from the spring that came out of the next one.

Obviously, what they drank was just the most ordinary spring water, and it didn't contain any alcohol, but as a result, they all had red wine halos on their faces, and even showed a little drunk.

All this made Duke feel strange and a little creepy, and with a flick of his head, he walked around the circle formed by the dwarves and walked straight to the place where Lenia was guarding.

Lenia had been on duty at the campfire in the pre-camp section tonight, and Duke could see a figure sitting by the fire in the distance.

When he got closer, Duke realized that Lenia had also been infested with illusions, but after all, she was strong enough to barely stay awake.

She was now clutching her saber, dozing off little by little like fishing, her eyes not closed like the others, but half-open and half-squinted.

It's just that there is no focus in her open eyes, which means that she is still a little affected and can't be alert and fight back as usual.

To be on the safe side, Duke first sent out his magic around Lenya, hoping to use his own external magic fluctuations to arouse her natural alertness and escape from the illusion.

Lenia's vigilance was too high, and Duke was just using his magic slightly, when he heard a choking sound of a sword coming out of its sheath, and a cold blade almost blinked to his neck.

"Lord!"

Before, it was just an instinctive reaction of Lenia's body, but when she carefully identified the person who was being held by herself, she realized that the person in front of her who was judged to be an intruder was actually her lord, so she immediately exclaimed and put away the long sword.

In a hurry, Lenia felt a little embarrassed, and realized that she seemed to have deserted while on duty at the camp, so she blushed and lowered her head and whispered, "Sorry lord, I didn't know that you came to change shifts, and I made a mistake while on duty, please punish me." ”

Touching the neck that was being held by Lenia just now, Duke could still feel the slight coolness of the blade, and he was still a little afraid in his heart at the moment, but he didn't expect that just a slight release of magic fluctuations would cause Lenia to fight back so quickly.

"Don't feel guilty. He said with some trepidation, "If you think about it now, is it really because you are too tired to doze off at night?"

After Duke's reminder, Lenia seemed to be aware of it, and paced around the campfire for a while before clapping her hands and shouting, "Fortunately, my lord, you came in time, we almost fell for the enemy's illusion, and if the enemy's method is successful, the consequences will be unimaginable." ”

"Don't say it's almost, except for you and me, no one else in the camp has come to their senses yet. Duke spread his hands helplessly, in fact, it can be said that he was succeeded by the enemy, and Lenia, who was the strongest, had almost lost the power to resist just now.

But the only strange thing is that the other party has no follow-up offensive, it seems to be like a prank to trick everyone, pulling everyone into a fantasy and unable to extricate themselves.

If even if you cooperate with some lowest-level magical beasts at this time, it is estimated that no one in the whole camp will be able to survive in the end.

Is it really just to disturb everyone's rest, so that Duke and his men will always be in a state of mental tension until they collapse?

Duke touched his chin and thought it was impossible, because there were less than two days left before Agnes was trapped, and he only needed to rest for two nights at most, which was too short if it was going to make people break down.

"Lord?"

Lenia shook her right hand in front of Duke in a little frustrated, she just heard that the whole camp had been hit by the illusion, and she panicked in her heart, and wanted to discuss countermeasures with him, but she didn't even get a response after saying it a few times, so she had to forcibly pull the lord's attention back.

"Uh, you say, I'm listening. ”

Although the lord's answer was a bit perfunctory, but after he came back to his senses, Lenia repeated again angrily: "Lord, I think this illusion is only hallucinogenic and has a strong effect but no means to hurt people, why don't you just ring the alarm bell and wake up the whole camp?"

"Isn't that really going to leave any bad hidden dangers?"

Duke also considered this plan before, but he was worried that forced awakening would leave hidden dangers. After all, magic, especially the dark magic developed by the Church of the End, always has all kinds of strange limitations and hidden dangers.

"No, I have already checked my condition and that of you myself, and there are no other consequences other than a decrease in mental power, and this effect can be said to be minimal. ”

"Alright then, you go to the front camp first to ring the alarm. ”

After receiving Lenia's affirmative answer, Duke finally let go of the stone in his heart and asked Lenia to wake up the others.

Lenia took the order and left.

Soon, the camp rang with the long-lasting sound of bells......
