Chapter 16 Tracking

"You've got something to hide from us," Haim affirmed as he looked at the silent Rhaegar "something is bothering you, and as friends, I hope we can share your worries." ”

Rhaegar was speechless. This seasoned elf, with his keen insight, was undoubtedly a good thing to have such a companion most of the time, but now, it caused him quite a problem - according to the laws of the universe, he could not tell the other party everything he knew in definitively, which would make the future even more unpredictable, and even in ancient times, the gods could only remind the believers of what to encounter in the future through some hidden allegory.

Rhaegar took a deep breath and regained his composure. The next moment, as he was about to find an excuse to answer his partner's question, a strong uneasiness suddenly came over him. The geist, who had never panicked even in the face of the most formidable foe, suddenly appeared in shock, his body rising from the ground like an arrow, flying at lightning speed in the direction in which Willy had left.

A few seconds later, Rhaegar was at the same tree where Willy had been staying, just over two kilometers away, where the only trace of the female warrior was the grass she had overwhelmed as she sat down.

The raging anger burned in Rhaegar's heart: as an eighth-order archmage, an existence that could wipe out countless people with a single move, it was a great shame that someone had taken the companion he cared about the most in front of him, but compared to the anger that might arise because Willy might be harmed, this anger due to shame was simply insignificant.

The geist didn't lose his mind in anger, and he quickly calmed down. From the time he sensed Willy's danger to the time he arrived, it was no more than five seconds, and in that time, it was impossible to get out of his sense range unless the opponent who captured Willy was far faster than him, and no one could do that except for a few magical beasts known for their speed and those who were also archmages.

Rhaegar closed his eyes, and the huge spiritual power used the surrounding Origin Energy as a medium, continuously spreading in all directions, and at his request, those Origin Energy particles also began to activate, constantly sending various information within a radius of five kilometers to his mind.

This kind of exhaustive search is an extremely exhausting task, it requires not only a lot of magic, but more importantly, Rhaegar needs to conduct precise and detailed analysis and calculation of the various information fed back to determine what kind of thing it reflects, even for an archmage, it is a heavy burden, and after two minutes, sweat began to slide down Rhaeggar's forehead.

However, to Rhaegar's disappointment, even after this kind of search, which was even more rigorous than combing his hair with a comb, he still failed to find any clues related to Willy, and after another three minutes, the geist who had already exceeded the limit of his mana consumption had to stop.

"What's wrong?" While Rhaegar was searching for Willy's whereabouts, Heim also arrived at the scene, and although he didn't know what was going on, the experienced elf immediately consciously acted as the geist's guard, until the other party opened his eyes, and Haim asked his own question.

"It's Willy," Rhaegar said a little tiredly, "someone has captured her, but I can't find any clues, I need help." He took a breath, then said eagerly, "Tell your Demon Eagle to search the mountains in this area." ”

To avoid unnecessary trouble, before entering Noren, Haim released the Eagle into the surrounding wilderness, ready to summon it if needed. After being controlled by the Confusing Divine Technique, the Demon Eagle, who was in touch with his soul, keenly sensed the change in his master, and took the initiative to cut off contact, until the elf was unrestrained, and then found his pet again, and now, the overlord of the sky is soaring freely over the Hornfest Mountains.

Although there was no evidence to prove it, Haim did not hesitate to believe Rhaegard's words, and he quickly closed his eyes and gave the command to the Eagle through a telepathic connection.

"You go and inform Tomahawk and Nack and tell them to split up and look for them," Rhaegar said, "We need everyone's strength now. ”

"What are you going to do?" Haim looked at Rhaegar with some concern, his face was still pale, it was clear that his mana consumption had not fully recovered, and there were still many ferocious beasts in this mountain range.

"I'll be back soon," Rhaegar said in a deep voice, "and, don't forget, I'm more than just a mage. His legs burst out with incredible bounce at this moment, and while talking to his partner, he had already completed several jumps, appearing in the forest twenty meters away.

This unique way of traveling existed in the fragment of the soul that Hector possessed, and in the age of the gods, only warriors with great physical strength and agility and a deep knowledge of martial arts could master it, and at short distances, it could even give a person the speed of a leopard.

"I'll be in charge of searching the west," Rhaegar said to Heim before leaving, "you split up and search for other directions, and if you find something, crush the alarm crystal I gave you, and I'll be there in the shortest possible time." ”

By the time he uttered the last word echoed through the air, the geist had vanished from Heim's sight.

The search lasted nearly a day, until night covered the entire Hornfest Range, and the team had to abandon the operation in frustration and return to their camp. However, no one, including Rhaeggar, noticed that at the same time as they returned to the camp, in the place where Willy disappeared, a large hole with a height of one person suddenly appeared silently, and then, a person wrapped in a black tights walked out of it gently, holding in his arms was Willy, who was still in a coma.

The killer from the organization hired by Hano originally wanted to hide in this hollow tree, and with the help of the treasure given by the organization, which can make soul fluctuations and all life characteristics merge with the surrounding plants, he could observe these powerful opponents and find an opportunity, but even he couldn't believe that this opportunity could come so easily - the female warrior who was immersed in sadness completely relaxed her vigilance around her, and the place where she sat was the tree where she was hiding.

The killer who took the risk to subdue Willy and then hid back in the tree was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief: he could clearly feel the strength of those explorers, especially the mage, he had no doubt that once the other party found out, he would be crushed to death like an ant, and his remorse for his recklessness and fear of the enemy almost broke him, if it weren't for the terrible punishment of the organization, he might have given up his prey and fled alone.

But now, those feelings are a thing of the past, and in the killer's mind, the joy of mission success and the hope of the reward that is about to come make him forget about the squad that was camped not far away. He looked down greedily at Wei Li, who looked like a sleeping fairy in his arms, tried his best to suppress the desire in his heart, and walked quickly to the west according to the prior arrangement.

"She's there," Rhaegar suddenly opened his eyes in the camp, who was in the middle of meditation and was closely connected to the surrounding primordial particles, and said to his companions, who were not sleepy due to Willy's disappearance, "I can feel that she is in that direction." ”

Without waiting for the refreshed companions to inquire in detail, Rhaeggar's body lightningly passed through the gap between the crowds, came to the outside of the cave where he lived, and then flew into the sky.

"Tell your eagle to follow me. He shouted loudly in the air and flew off into the distance at high speed.

Ten minutes later, when Haim and the others arrived at the location where Rhaegar was under the guidance of the Demon Eagle, they saw a geist in a daze.

"Where is she?" the dwarf looked around, "where is the girl?"

"She's out of here," Rhaegar looked thoughtful, "and when I was about to arrive, I suddenly couldn't sense her presence anymore, and apparently, someone had once again disguised her breath of life and soul fluctuations. ”

Rhaegar turned and looked at his companions, "We're stepping into a trap," he said, "someone is using Willy as bait, ready to lead us into the designated place." He was suddenly touched by his own words, and a premonition about the future reappeared in his mind, and at this moment, he was almost 100% sure that the danger that the team was about to face was ahead.

"We can't leave Willy behind," said Heim firmly, "and whatever danger lies ahead, we must find her." ”

"That's right," Tomahawk yelled, "we'll find the girl, and when the time comes, I'll use my axe to turn those who dare to hurt her into sticks!"

"She's our partner," Nack said without hesitation, "the sub-giants never abandon their partners. ”

"Alright," Rhaegar sighed softly, looking around at his brave and loyal companions, "since you insist..."

With a sudden flick of his hand, an invisible rope bound everyone but him, and then, under the team's horrified gaze, the geist quickly drew several magical symbols around them, and then placed a transparent magical shield on the inside of them.

"It's only a temporary bondage," Rhaegar explained to his companions, "two hours at most, and you'll be free, and after that, I promise you that this magic won't leave you with any after-effects except for a brief moment of discomfort." ”

He turned to look at Heim, who had already understood his intentions, "These magical symbols can make anyone who finds you think of you as ordinary plants in the mountains, and that magic shield will protect you from harm when you lose your freedom." His figure gradually blurred, "I will bring her back, this is my promise to you." He said to his companions, then disappeared into thin air.
