Regardless, the white cat's suspicions are not unreasonable.

After looking at the intersection of Wotan Village for a few seconds, Link made a decision and spoke to the introverted female mage:

"Shirley, you should have enough points left in your Spell Eye, right?"

The female mage nodded, the Eye of Spell was an active skill she learned early on, allowing multiple Scout Wards to be released at the same time, keeping an eye on a fixed area.

Although it can't directly improve combat effectiveness, it is a very useful skill, but the disadvantage is that it has a long cooldown time and cannot be used without scruples.

"I've learned from the villagers here that there are two main passages in Wotan Village, and only one leads to the northern fortress, but just in case, Xili has fixed scout guards at both passages."

After instructing Xili, Link said to the crowd,

"Next, we split up to search, and in view of the strength of the enemy, we will divide into two groups, each group should not be too far apart, and if the situation is found on either side, we will use the remote communication within the temporary team."

"I'm in a group with Tentacles, and I'm in a group with two ladies, so that no matter where danger happens, at least one person can rush over to help."

After hearing Link's words, several people nodded, while Chu Ge glanced at the two mages curiously.

He hadn't told Link that he was good at speed, but the other party decided that he also had the ability to support quickly.

Then, the only one who can take on this responsibility is one of the two mages.

The white cat naturally noticed Chu Ge's eyes, but she didn't mean to solve Chu Ge's doubts, and at this time, Xili suddenly said to Link:

"Actually, when I got out of the car, I had already cast a reconnaissance guard at the entrance of the passage where I came in advance, so now I only need to set it up at the intersection on the north side."

"In addition, during the search just now, I also deployed reconnaissance guards at two key intersections, which can monitor the overall movement of the entire village."

Chu Ge noticed that when Xi Li said this, the rest of the people were not too surprised, but instead showed a kind of calm that they deserved, as if they were used to this kind of thing.

"Pretty reliable......" he bowed his head slightly, a little more interested in the Tama team.

"Then it was decided. Without further ado, the three of us will go to the north to set up the Eye of Spells now, and you two will search carefully near us. ”

The white cat waved the small silver staff in his hand and walked towards the north.

******

"Hint: The host side quest objective [Escort Squire (1/2)] has died, and the remaining number of the current quest objective is 9."

"Hint: The host side quest target [Farrell Family Remaining Descendants (1/8)] has died, and the remaining number of the current quest target is 8."

"Hint: The host side quest target [Farrell Family Remnant (2/8)] has died, and the remaining number of the current quest target is 7."

"Hint: The completion of the host task has been improved, and the task settlement evaluation has not changed."

Four consecutive Noah chimes rang in the minds of the four at the same time.

“…… What the? ”

"Are those two guys so capable?"

Not only Xili, but even the white cat had a surprised expression on her face.

"What's wrong?"

Looking at Xi Li, who had just completed the Eye of the Spell, Chu Ge asked.

"That's ......"

A smile appeared on the white cat's face, and when he was about to explain to Chu Ge, Link's communication suddenly came:

[Is there a battle over there?] Tell me the location. 】

The newsletter reads.

"Huh?"

The white cat glanced at the message, and the smile on his face suddenly retracted, leaving behind a deep uneasiness after the doubt.

"You didn't do it?" She immediately replied to Link's side.

What are you talking about? 】

The other party's answer made her brow furrow.

As if to fulfill her uneasiness, a few seconds later, Noah's prompt came again.

"Warning: Due to the interference of unknown factors, the difficulty of the host side quest has changed, and the difficulty of the quest has been increased from C+ to B."

"Note: The rewards for this side quest will also be increased by two levels, and the current status of the quest objective will not change."

"B-class? Two ratings in a row? ”

The white cat's face changed, and it seemed that this inexplicable increase in mission completion was not something to be happy about.

The only thing that makes her calm now is that the goal of the side quest has not changed, whether it is a guard or an exiled descendant, the strength is the same as before.

But what exactly happened, and what was the reason for the change in the difficulty of the mission?

"Did something happen?"

Chu Ge asked, he had seen the public communication in the temporary team, but he couldn't get much useful information out of it.

The white cat quickly told Chu Ge what had happened, and because this side quest was Tama's team mission, Xili received the same notification from Noah as the white cat.

After learning what had happened just now, Chu Ge's brows also furrowed, and after thinking for a while, he said:

"The difficulty of the B-level mission...... Generally speaking, they will face opponents in the middle of the third order, and it is not surprising even if there is a late stage of the third order. ”

"If the enemy is in the middle of the third order, the five of us may still be able to try to fight, but the chance of winning is very low, and it is easy to lose personnel, if it is the late third order, even if we are all killed, it is impossible to succeed."

"However, judging from the mission objectives alone, the kills to be completed are now a little easier than before, and the mission rewards have also been increased accordingly, if you dare to take a risk, the success should not be low."

"Although the current situation has not been negotiated in the contract, I will still try my best to complete this assistance, so it is up to you to decide whether to continue to do it."

The reason why Chu Ge would say such a thing was, of course, after careful consideration.

With his current ability, even if he encounters an invincible enemy in the third order, he can drag the opponent for a while with all his might, so that several of Tama's people have time to escape, and then use the power of the active skill [Twilight Raven's Blessing] and the aura skill [Call of Winter] at the same time, it is not difficult to get rid of the enemy under the transcendental.

And if it's an ordinary third-order, then the possibility of cooperating with Tama and a few people to kill it is not low, and it is another SP value income, and it can also make Tama owe him a favor, no matter how it is calculated.

The white cat lowered his head and communicated privately with Link for a while, and then raised his head to look at Chu Ge and said firmly:

"Let's go ahead with this, I'll leave it to you this time. If the task can be successfully completed, we will definitely compensate you extra. ”

Chu Ge nodded to show that he understood, didn't say anything, and carefully searched for suspicious places nearby according to the white cat's instructions.

Boom –

At this moment, a low roar came from nearby, and the ground shook slightly.

Explode!

Chu Ge and the white cat glanced at each other and quickly rushed towards the source of the sound, while Xili immediately notified Link and the others before following the two.

The sound comes from an enclosed space and is very close to oneself.

Chu Ge turned a corner and rushed down a dirt slope to a large warehouse, surrounded by several low houses.

This warehouse should be a place to store harvested grain, but now it is empty, no one is guarding it, and Chu Ge and the others just glanced at the door casually before, and did not go in.

He walked over to the warehouse and crouched down, picking up a few pieces of fallen wall debris and observing.

Because Chu Ge deliberately slowed down a bit, he arrived with the white cat.

He looked at the old walls and said to the white cat:

"These debris must have fallen from the vibration just now, and if there is no accident, the source of the sound is this."

The white cat glanced at the team's communication records and said to Chu Ge:

"Link, they're already coming this way, let's go in when everyone is together."

Chu Ge shook his head and said:

"It's better to be careful, it's easy for a group of people to enter rashly like this, it's easy to be dangerous, I have a latent type of skill, go in alone first to investigate the situation."

The white cat glanced at Chu Ge in surprise, she didn't expect Chu Ge to learn this type of ability, but she didn't ask much.

After thinking for a while, she vetoed Chu Ge's proposal and said:

"Even if you want to infiltrate, wait until Link and the others arrive, and let him cast enough additional stats for you first, and on the other hand, if something happens to you inside, our support can keep up."

"Another point, that is, the tentacles also have latent type skills, so the two of you can enter at the same time, and it will be less dangerous if you take care of each other."

"Okay."

Regardless of whether the other party is motivated by pure kindness or not, there is no reason for him to refuse.

It didn't take long for Link and Tentacles to arrive.

In the previous team communication, several people had already communicated in advance, and after arriving, Link immediately cast two more powerful buff states on Chu Ge and Tentacles.

After the two pure rays of light, the tentacles' defense, ailment resistance, movement speed, and upper health limit have all been significantly improved, but Chu Ge's stats have not changed in any way.

"Hint: The host is affected by the buff skill [Advanced Solidification], and the effect of the skill is ......"

"Hint: Buff Skill [Advanced Solidification] Failed to add!"

"Hint: The host is affected by the buff skill [Pure Radiance], and the skill effect is in effect......"

"Hint: Failed to add bonus skill [Pure Radiance]!"

A look of astonishment immediately appeared on Link's face, and it was clear that he had also received a hint that the buff had failed.

"I forgot to tell you...... The buff effect of the light attribute has no effect on me. ”

Chu Ge pressed his temples and said to Link with a wry smile.

If there is no extraordinary strength or above, then ordinary amplification methods have no effect on him at all, and even if the release is successful, the effect will be greatly reduced.

"And this kind of thing...... It's a pity, my buff skills are all light attributes, by the way, what about the healing effect, will it work for you? ”

Link frowned, and asked worriedly, if the healing effect could not be effective, then this operation would undoubtedly have a lot more variables.

"Don't worry about this, the healing skill can take effect, but the effect seems to be only about eighty percent of that of ordinary spellcasting targets." Chu Ge said.

"Eighty percent...... Forget it, at least it's better than nothing. ”

The pimple in Link's eyebrows loosened a little, and he sighed and said,

"It's only a 20% deviation, but if you're negligent, it's easy to get into an accident, and it seems that you can't be treated empirically as you used to."

"I'm sorry for you." Chu Ge gently pushed the door of the warehouse open again, and when he stepped in, he also turned on the active effect of the ghost step.

The effect of the ghost shadow step in stealth is actually quite good, and the effect has been further improved under the characteristics of the reduced presence of Nevenmore's heart, and the reason for the low evaluation is mainly because the source energy value is consumed too quickly, and it is not suitable for long-term stealth activities.

Tentacles pulled out their one-handed sword and handed it over to Link for temporary safekeeping, and walked in with the scabbard in his hand.

After a burst of light refraction, the vision of several people was distorted in an instant, and the figure of the tentacle disappeared in place, and the aura on the body slowly faded.

Chu Ge was able to sense the existence of the tentacles, but that was due to his preconceived premise that the tentacles were behind him, otherwise, his perception would definitely be easily blinded.

"It's such a strong concealment effect, it seems that the rating of this ability is not low at all......

Of course, he didn't know that this was the harvest of the tentacles' fourth main quest, and to be able to reach this level, in addition to the effect of the skill itself, but also because the scabbard worked, which was the power of the combination of the two.

There are two floors in the warehouse, the second floor is hollow, and there are only a few small rooms, which need to be walked up from the innermost staircase of the warehouse.

The two of them stepped on the stairs without making a sound.

After tiptoeing and searching, the two came to the same conclusion, and several rooms were empty.

'Weird...... Could it be that there is some secret passage on the first floor? Or is the mission objective not in this repository at all? ’

Just as Chu Ge was thinking calmly, the message of the tentacles suddenly came from the team communication.

[Come here.] 】

Chu Ge raised his head and glanced at the tentacles, and found that the other party was staring at a room that smelled musty.

As he walked over, the tentacles pointed to the wall of the room, then to the half-open iron door.

You can't see anything from the front of the gate, but if you look behind the gate, you can see that there are signs of forcible damage, and it must have happened recently.

“……”

Just then, a muffled voice came from somewhere in the room.

Their eyes lit up as they pressed their ears to the wall on the left.

"How about it, Mr. Xilin, this is an invitation from the Woodland Kingdom, as long as you agree, you can become the guest of honor of our elven clan."
