“......”

Seeing that the man at the bottom of the pit had left only a humanoid depression, and that there was no trace of it rapidly turning into illusion and gradually disappearing before his eyes, one of Zoro's faces immediately became gloomy.

No, it can't be said that there are no other traces left at all, because where the person disappeared, there seems to be a faint bubble that exudes a faint hazy mystical light.

The next second that Zoro noticed the bubble, the bubble seemed to be burst, snapped and made a crisp sound, and then exploded directly into the air, leaving only a few misty and indescribable points of light of different colors, like bubbles rising with the wind, some floating to the sky, some directly into the earth, and completely disappeared in this place.

Seeing the process of the bubble's disappearance in its entirety, Zoro frowned deeply, probed a little, and made sure that he couldn't find any trace of the person, so he immediately called, "Brain?"

Needless to say, Zhi Brain immediately answered his doubts.

"Indeed, just now I detected an unknown force breaking through the blockade of our "lock net", and after calculation, that unknown force seems to come from this secret space itself. 』

Hearing this, Zoro's face softened.

"That is?"

"Yes, he didn't escape on his own. Instead, after being defeated by you, it seems that he was judged to have lost his agent qualification due to failure, and was completely expelled from this relic space by the Ethereal Realm Spirit. According to calculations made by several senior intellectuals, there is now a more than 98% chance that this person has been sent back to the outside world. 』

"The different-colored bubble you just saw, according to the scanning and analysis of many Wisdom Brains, including this unit, is basically the same as the power fluctuations contained in the 'Void Spirit Token' used by the Void Spirit Realm Spirit when all the agents were transferred in, so this machine and the superior Wisdom Brain will think that the Void Spirit Realm Spirit has made a move, and the probability is more than 98%. 』

"As for the remaining 2% possibility, it is that there is indeed another unknown being who intervened to rescue that person, and deliberately left this kind of camouflage that can mimic the power of the spirit of the Ethereal Spirit, and also makes it impossible for the brains to discern the flaws, so as to mislead our judgment. However, this probability is too low to be considered. 』

Zoro understands the minds of the Brains very well, because the latter possibility hypothesis calculated by the Brains is really just a hypothesis, but the probability is too low. Not to mention whether there will be unknown enemies who can imitate the unique power properties of the Void Spirit Realm Spirit, just to deceive the scanning and analysis ability of the Brains, and also to have the ability to break through the blockade of the "data lock network" and make it impossible for the Brains to track, such a thing is not something that ordinary people can do.

Sauron, who was a little depressed, no longer bothered about the whereabouts of the minotaur agent, and turned his head to look at the two Dewey who were still left.

He didn't rush to make a move anymore, because the two of them were now being besieged by the four of Rice with an absolute numerical advantage, and they were already in danger, and it was only a matter of time before they were taken down like the Minotaur agent just now.

Without rushing to make a move, Zoro raised his hand and chatted with his own intelligent brain "Thorne".

Although Thorne, as one of the brains that the rules allow to be brought in from the outside, unlike other brains developed from the Ethereal Relic Realm, it can't directly attack the agents of other camps, but at least it can be a spectacle.

Just like just now, when the minotaur agent disappeared, Thorne also mobilized the power of data to scan and analyze the other party's traces, anyway, it was just 'looking', as long as he didn't tell Zoro the information he found that was unfavorable to the agents of other camps, it would not be considered a violation of the rules.

"Speaking of which...... Thorne, I do remember that one of the rules of this Ethereal Relic Conference is that when the agent voluntarily admits defeat or is about to suffer mortal danger, he can choose to give up all the gains he has obtained in the Ethereal Relic Realm, so as to get out of the Ethereal Relic Realm and get out of the crisis. This rule is also that the high-level leaders of the major forces have spent a lot of effort to cultivate the agents for their own purposes, so that they will not be meaninglessly trapped and killed in the Ethereal Relic Realm, right?"

Zoro asked a little puzzled, "But I remember very well that that guy didn't admit defeat at all before he was knocked out by me." And I just plan to take him prisoner and try to surrender further, and I don't mean to take his life, according to the rules of the Ethereal Spirit Conference, why did the realm spirit send him out so quickly?"

As soon as he said this, Zoro's face became extremely unhappy.

You know, if he wanted to, in fact, he could have taken down the three of Dewey in a shorter time, but because of the full resistance of the three of Dewey, in this way, in order to ensure that they could eliminate their ability to resist, Sauron and the others would be a little light and heavy when they attacked.

If he accidentally broke or even killed these three people with too heavy a shot, it would not be an ideal result for Sauron, who wanted to recruit them, and he was counting on a wave of merit by recruiting these three people.

For the Dream Realm, each of these agents who have been cultivated by other forces with a lot of resources has a high value, even if you don't count the harvest in the Ethereal Relic, as long as you can subdue these originally hostile agents to your own camp, it is also a good harvest for the Dream Realm.

Therefore, as long as Sauron's idea can succeed, he will also be able to receive merit rewards from the realm.

Previously, Hal took the lead in co-opting a powerful indigenous alien race for the country, and presumably the merit value could not run, which made Zoro very envious when he knew about it.

For this reason, when fighting with Dewey and the three, Zoro even deliberately asked Rice and the others to be merciful together, just to see if there was a chance for his side to make a profit.

No matter how bad it was, even if Dewey and the three would rather die after being captured, Zoro felt that he could try to squeeze other oil and water out of them, such as some good things that might be stored in the storage containers they carried.

Zoro didn't believe that the agents of the other factions would come in empty-handed, even if the rules for the Soul Mind also restricted the carrying of high-level secret treasure artifacts with 'machine spirits', but other good things were not affected, such as healing potions and healing potions, rare props and materials for arranging magic formations, or other extraordinary things.

Anyway, if you can be brought in by these extraordinary agents who have deliberately put it into a storage container with limited space, it will definitely not go anywhere!

Pity......

"It's a bit rude, but my lord, I think you're taking it for granted. 』

Zoro's exclusive wisdom brain unceremoniously and directly refuted his thoughts, saying, "First of all, under the watchful eyes of the high-level leaders of the major forces outside, even if the other party is successfully captured by you, it is basically impossible to surrender. If the machine is not restricted by the rules, it can still be subdued by the mandatory "data erosion", but now, when the machine directly attacks other agents, the ability of those newly developed subordinate brains is not enough. So this road is not going to work. 』

"Secondly, even if we create a powerful enough high-level brain-type submachine in the future to force "data erosion" on the captured agents, the high-level forces outside the Ethereal Relic are watching us all the time. At that point, the machine didn't think they would watch us snatch away the agents they'd worked so hard to cultivate. 』

"I'm afraid the rule for the agent to leave will take effect at that time. Even if the agent himself has lost consciousness, as long as the high-level leaders of the major forces outside announce their renunciation of the conference on their behalf, they can also ask the spirit of the Void Spirit Realm to send them out in time. 』

"You mean......" Zoro suddenly came to his senses, and his face became a little ugly: "The reason why that guy disappeared just now was because the high-level forces behind him took the initiative to announce the renunciation of his qualifications for him?

"That's how it should be. 』

"Tsk!"

Zoro looked up at the sky, as if looking through the canopy at the group of high-ranking people outside, and he smashed his tongue in displeasure, and even wanted to raise his middle finger at the sky.

According to Thorne's speculation, then no matter whether they can capture Dewey and the others, as long as the group of big people outside do not agree, don't try to squeeze any oil and water out of Dewey and the others?

Judging from the fact that the agent who had transformed into a minotaur just now had nothing left behind after he disappeared, Dewey and the others were afraid that they had collided with them before they could find any valuable gains in this ethereal relic realm.

After the agent is disqualified and forcibly repatriated by the Ethereal Spirit Realm Spirit halfway, all the gains he has gained in the interior of the Ethereal Spirit Relic will be kept. But now, Zoro didn't find any remnants, which only means that the other party came in and found nothing.

This is actually quite understandable, after all, it hasn't been long since their agent came in.

But Sauron, who hadn't caught a single hair, was still very depressed.

He glanced at the remaining Dewey and the two who were still struggling to support themselves, and then said directly to the four teammates on his side: "Rice, you don't have to keep your hands anymore, even if you kill them, it doesn't matter!"

Less held a mechanical spirit blade transformed from the weapon system of the "Spell Armor Spirit Machine" on his body, and slashed the agent who had transformed into a harpy into a vomit of blood and flew upside down, and then took the time to look at Zoro.

"Huh, don't you want to capture them alive?"

"Thorne's analysis, you can also take a look, it's been posted to the team channel just now. Zoro waved his hand and said, "So, there's no need to be obsessed with capturing them alive anymore, anyway, even if we bother to capture these guys, we won't have much to gain, so it's easier to let them leave as soon as possible!"

"Is that so......"

Because they were really in battle, they didn't have the distraction to look at the information in the team's channel, but the exclusive brain they carried on them could still directly transmit the information they needed to their minds, so Rice and the others quickly understood why Sauron suddenly changed his mind.

"I see...... Then I'll try again. After understanding the reason, Rice did not directly choose to give up. He said to the other three teammates, "You hold them back for a while. ”

"Good. The three teammates didn't ask why, and just nodded in agreement.

Then, Les pushed out the battle circle, and with a movement of his mind, he secretly asked the surrounding brains:

"Brain, how is your scanning and analysis of the enemy's data and intelligence?"

"I'm sorry, Lord Rice, these agents all have a lot of strength to protect their bodies, which has caused a certain obstacle to the scanning of our data power, because Lord Thorne and other superior brains can't participate, and our ability is a little insufficient, so the current progress is still a little slow. 』

'I understand, but how far have you done their scanning?'

"Because since the beginning of the war, the attacks on them have broken their protective spiritual power many times, and although they quickly repaired it, we have also taken advantage of these gaps to speed up the scanning and analysis process of the data power. Continuing like this, as long as the two agents are not hiding any hole cards that they have not used so far, it is estimated that it will take another ten minutes to complete the full analysis of the two agents. 』

Zhi Brain replied plainly and respectfully.

Then it also made a suggestion: "Do we need to bring in more brains from other regions?"

'You don't have to do that!' but Rice rejected the brain's suggestion, saying, "I want you to focus your efforts on finding out the location of all the storage items on each other's bodies." Is it possible to do this not only on the surface of the body, but also on the inside of the body that they may have stored and hidden?'

"Yes. What you said is actually within the scope of our scanning and parsing. And there have been some gains. If the brains who are concentrated on the scene have the ability to calculate the power of data, and instead focus on the analysis of the "program" on the enemy's body, and instead concentrate on searching the storage device on the opponent's body, then it is estimated that it will only take 30 seconds to complete. 』

Brain Brain brings good news to Rice.

Very good!

Satisfied, Les jumped up to Sauron and told him what he thought.

"That's a good idea, so let's try it. ”

Zoro, who was originally in a depressed mood, showed a very excited brilliance in his eyes after listening to Les's words, and looked at Rice and grinned: "You can think of this kind of practice, you kid is ruthless enough." ”

Les smiled and said, "Captain, that's too much, I'm just trying to maximize our results." ”

Then, the two looked at each other and smiled, and then looked at the battle circle in the distance again, and then stopped moving, as if waiting for the opportunity.

In the field, Dewey, who incarnated in the form of the wind element, and the agent who incarnated in the form of the eagle man had been paying attention to the movements of Zoro and Rice, and they were relieved to see that the two of them seemed to have no intention of rejoining the battlefield for the time being after they withdrew.

Although I don't know what the other party is thinking, at least, after the enemy side has lost two people, their pressure has become a little less, and they will not be unable to support it in a short time.

It's a pity that even if the enemy has two fewer people to participate in the battle, the remaining three people still make Dewey and them dare not be careless at all. Because they have already confirmed that these five agents on the enemy's side, even if they are the weakest in cultivation, seem to be even stronger than Dewey, the strongest on their side!

Especially after the three opponents were not to be outdone, they each summoned their own contract elves and entered the state of "elf armament", and combined with the black mechanical armor on the other party, which was extremely strong in terms of speed and spiritual power, and the defense was also extremely strong for them, as well as the same mechanical weapons with a sense of technology, as well as the strange interference imposed by the surrounding spiritual brains from time to time......

Dewey's pressure was actually greater than at the beginning.

......

The Void Soul is outside the borders, on the Void Greystone Platform.

The high-level leaders of the major forces all focused their eyes on the battle between the two teams of Zoro and Dewey presented in the secret realm, and many people's faces were a little strange, and among them, the high-level leaders of the Scattered Cultivation Alliance had the most ugly faces.

Some people also swept their gaze to the gray stone platform where the Scattered Cultivation Alliance was located from time to time, because over there, there were two high-ranking members of the Scattered Cultivation Alliance who were engrossed in the changes in the battlefield in the Void Spirit Relic, and their faces were full of hesitation, struggle, and unwillingness.

It is worth mentioning that not far behind them, there is a young man lying on the ground of the hard and cold gray stone platform, unconscious, unconscious, however, at this time, no one pays attention to this poor unconscious young man, everyone's attention is mainly focused on the picture presented in the realm of the Void Spirit Relic and the reaction of the two high-level leaders of the Scattered Cultivation Alliance.

Under everyone's attention, the hesitation on the faces of the two high-ranking members of the Scattered Cultivation Alliance gradually turned into helplessness and firmness, and they looked up at the Void Spirit Realm Spirit above, as if they wanted to say something.

The picture presented in the realm of the Ethereal Relic suddenly changed dramatically.

"What......"

"How dare a thief ......?!"

"Damn ——!!!"

Including the two high-level representatives of the Scattered Cultivation Alliance, the high-level representatives of the entire Scattered Cultivation Alliance all changed their emotions in an instant, and they fell into an irrepressible rage.
