Led by little Paul, the two soon found the cave again.

As Paul's de facto teacher, Isenas showed a skill in tracking that far surpassed Paul's.

Isenas first identified the original owner of the cave as another spotted leopard.

"The bite marks on these bones in the cave are obviously larger than the mouth of the spotted leopard you brought back, so the original owner of this cave must have another leopard. ”

This is something that little Paul didn't notice.

But that was the end of the clues in the cave, and the two stepped out of the cave and continued to search in the jungle.

Esenus beckoned little Paul to a large tree: "Look at this broken leaf, pay attention to its section, although it has lost some moisture, it is still fresh, which shows that someone touched him a few days ago, and this is a mark that cannot be erased. ”

"And here, there are some scratches on the trunk that they may have inadvertently left behind. ”

Little Paul touched the remaining resin on the trunk, looked deep into the woods, and asked, "So this is the route they left?"

"Not necessarily. Isenus shook his head and said, "Don't jump to conclusions, don't let this clue interfere with your observations." The search process should be to observe all the anomalies and then analyze them one by one, so as to ensure that you will not miss some inconspicuous information. ”

Little Paul nodded, and continued to follow after Isennas.

After a while, Isennas's gaze was drawn to a tall bunch of grass.

He began to push upwards along the roots of the tall grass, slowly reaching the top of the tall grass, and then gently let go of his hand.

"This bunch of grass seems a little crooked?" said little Paul, looking at the tall bunch of grass that had fallen slightly to the side.

"Yes, it was stepped on not long ago and then tried to be straightened, but it didn't work very well. Esenus let go of the tall grass, stood up, and began to search for the next clue.

"Has anyone tried to hide their tracks?" asked little Paul, after him.

"Yes. As Isenus spoke, he noticed something unusual.

It was a broken spider web near the tall grass.

Only a little bit of the web is still attached to the leaves of the shrub at the bottom.

"Look for cobwebs nearby. Esenas commanded.

A few minutes later, little Paul found a cobweb in the opposite direction.

"Here, Isenas, the spider is still on the edge of the web. ”

Isenus walked over, took a closer look at the spider and its web, and nodded in affirmation, "That's right, it's this spider's web." ”

Can this also be seen? Little Paul was full of questions.

Seeing that little Paul was puzzled, Isenas explained again: "If you compare these two nets, the distance between their nodes is the same length. Different spiders have different webs because of their bodies, so I said that these two spider webs were made by this spider. ”

"But what does that mean?"

Isenas smiled and said, "The dynamic reaction of animals is the most overlooked aspect of field tracking. This kind of small animal has a premonition of danger that is often several times or even ten times that of humans, if the web is accidentally broken, the spider will generally repair it, but now it would rather change the direction to re-build the web, rather than repair its original web, it must have sensed the dangerous aura on the side of the broken spider web, and the group of warriors went this way. ”

"What about the broken leaves and scratches on the trunk that you just found?" asked little Paul.

"That's a false mark, the direction of the leaf fragmentation is exactly the opposite of the depth and direction of the scratch on the trunk, and normal walking will not bring out such a trace. And I believe in animal reactions more than physical traces. ”

Isenus said as he walked in the direction of the shattered web.

Less than ten meters away, Isenus stopped again and stared at a bouquet of flowers.

Little Paul followed Isennas's gaze, but couldn't see anything unusual in the flowers.

Isenus stretched out his hand and compared the position of the two bouquets of flowers in the bush, and said, "This bunch doesn't look normal, there seems to be one missing here." ”

Unable to see anything more, Esenas simply crouched down and touched the dirt near the flowers, and at once he found an exceptionally soft place.

He reached out and dug through the soil, revealing many broken rhizomes.

Isenus pondered for a moment, and used his Sanctuary ability to dig up the entire flower bush and put it in the air to observe it carefully.

"What is this, blood?" asked little Paul as he saw Esenas use his Sanctuary ability to separate a small patch of dark red dirt from the flowers.

"It's venous blood, and it's been in the dirt for about two days. Esenus sniffed the bloody dirt and affirmed, "This is it, the gang is going this way." ”

"Can blood make a difference?" little Paul curiously leaned in, picked up a small piece of dirt with blood and put it in front of him to observe.

Isenus put down the flower, buried it in the soil as it was, and said, "There is a lot of knowledge about blood, the dark red is venous blood, the bubbling pink blood is bleeding from the lungs or throat, and the smell is the blood left by the wound in the abdomen, which may be mixed with the contents of the intestines... The length of time the blood is exposed to the air can also change what they look like. This is only involving the blood of ordinary humans, and no one dares to say that they have studied them thoroughly in the knowledge of alien blood, demonic blood, and dark biological blood, and in the realm of divine blood, human beings are even more helpless. ”

Little Leo couldn't help but be amazed.

The deeper they went in this direction, the more obvious the traces left by the group, as if the person in charge of the disguise felt that it was unnecessary, and even left a series of conspicuous footprints on a relatively muddy road.

Esenus called little Paul and said, "Look at these footprints, and if you can see something, I'll teach you another archery technique." ”

"It's like that 'white spiral blast bolt?' I haven't had a chance to use it yet. Little Paul couldn't help but complain.

"Do you want to learn?"

"Learn. Little Paul replied crisply.

If you can learn new skills, why refuse?

Little Paul stared invigorately at the trail of footprints on the ground, but his mind was empty for a few minutes.

The only thing he could see was that the pile of footprints should belong to three people.

"Don't just look, think about it. Estimating that little Paul couldn't see anything, Isenas shook his head, pointed to the footprints on the ground, and said, "You have to think about why such footprints are formed." ”

"This string of footprints is shallow and close, indicating that the owner of this series of footprints is walking steadily, and the middle series of footprints is deep and shorter, which indicates that he may be carrying a heavy object, probably the missing spotted leopard, and this series of footprints, one deep and one shallow, one deep and one shallow, this is the trace that people with injured feet often have, which is also correct with the blood stains we found. ”

"In summary, at least three people found the cave where the spotted leopard was hiding, and after a short fight, they captured it, and one of them injured his right leg in the course of the fight. One of them was responsible for cleaning up the traces of the battle and hiding their whereabouts, but he was not very professional and patient, otherwise he would not have left these footprints. ”

Little Paul silently wrote down the knowledge and reasoning ideas used by Esenas, and asked with some curiosity: "How do you know all this knowledge of field tracking, is it all in the book?"

"It's not all, some knowledge still has to be practiced in person. ”

(But what kind of experience does it take to have such knowledge?) At least Leo and Ent didn't show that ability.) Little Paul thought to himself.

Later in the journey, without Isennus opening his mouth, little Paul also found a large number of traces, rested haystacks, broken branches, mud left on the grass, these traces unmistakably told them that the direction they were following was correct.

After following the trail for a long time, Esenas suddenly waved his hand to stop little Paul from moving forward.

Esenas sniffled and said to little Paul, "It smells of smoke, there's a camp nearby." ”

"What do we do now?"

"Use not only your eyes, but your ears and nose, scouting is a science that involves all the organs of the body. Go this way and try not to leave a mark. ”

Isenus led little Paul down the terrain to a higher rock, carefully exposing half of his head.

A little farther away, in a hollow, a group of strangely dressed people were sitting and resting.

Isenus just glanced at it and immediately pressed little Paul's head.

"What's wrong?" said little Paul dissatisfied, slapping Isenas away.

Isenas didn't care, and said softly: "There are sentinels, one at five hundred meters at twelve o'clock, and one at two hundred meters at three o'clock." ”

Two hundred meters!

Little Paul was horrified, and it was not too much for the sentinels to say that they had almost stepped on their faces.

"What are you going to do?" asked little Paul, in the same low voice, for fear of attracting the sentinel's attention.

"Of course, I continued to observe. Isenus moved his finger, and a finger-thick observation hole immediately broke in the center of the rock in front of him, and turned back and forth with Isenus's command.

I have to say that Isennas's Sanctuary ability is indeed all-round and convenient enough, and he has made an excellent observation position in the dead corner.

This made little Paul look forward to his Sanctuary abilities even more.

After a while, Isenus stopped observing, turned his back and said, "There are fifty-three people in total, wearing uniform heavy armor and the insignia of the Sky Temple tattooed on their chests, with an average rank of fourteen, and the one in the lead has seventeen ranks. ”

After saying the personnel information, Esennaston paused and continued: "There are quite a few corpses of mid-level demonic beasts in the camp, including a spotted leopard's, and there is a large person in the corner of the camp with a bandage on his thigh. ”

Little Paul resisted the idea of turning his head to go out and peeking and asked, "How do you know so many signs?"

"Knowing Heraldry and List of Gods will make you lose your head a lot, boy. ”

Little Paul shrugged his shoulders in the same way as Esenus and said, "Well, you're right. But what's next, are we going to sneak in and eavesdrop on their plans?"

"Why do you want to know their plans?" Isenus glanced at little Paul strangely, and said, "Is it good that the forces of the Sky God are hiding in the hinterland of the Free Realm, hunting mid-level magical beasts? ”

After thinking about it carefully, little Paul had to admit that although Isennas's thinking was simple, it was extremely correct.

"Then I'll go back to Omoni, and you watch them here first. Paul Jr. approved of Isennas' plan and turned to leave.

Isenas grabbed little Paul.

"What are you doing with Omoni?"

"There are fifty-three people here, one more person has more strength. ”

Isenas leaned against the stone speechlessly, "Just like that, you still need to find them?"

"What do you mean...?" little Paul was a little confused for a moment.

"Of course, it was a frontal attack. Isenas said with a look of course.

"Won't they run away?"

"If I ran away, I choked myself with the air. Isenus said lightly: "Leo and Omoni should have told you about the gap between the Sanctuary and ordinary humans, after all, we are no longer a level of creatures, and it is not uncommon to block a hundred with one and defeat a thousand." ”

Seeing that little Paul was still skeptical, Esenas shook his head and said: "It seems that after going through so much, you still haven't changed your thinking from the perspective of ordinary people, no, it should be said that the enemies you have encountered before are all biased towards individual strength, so they didn't bring you enough understanding." ”

Isenus turned around and swaggered towards the recess: "Come with me, this time let you feel the absolute oppressive power of the Sanctuary." ”

Little Paul followed behind Isenas.

The moment Isenus was revealed, the two sentries raised their bows and arrows in alarm, aimed them at Isenus, and shouted at them to stop him from moving forward.

"Stop! One step further we're about to shoot!"

Isenus didn't care about this, and still walked towards the recess with no one in his eyes.

Faced with Isennus's complete disregard for their warnings, the two sentinels could not hold back, and the bowstring in their hands sounded softly, and the two feathered arrows shot at them as fast as lightning.

Little Paul secretly compared in his heart, the speed of these two feathered arrows was almost half as fast as him.

The speed is half as fast, and the power is more than double, and this blow has the power to break through the heavy shield.

Isenus turned a blind eye to the deadly feathered arrows that were speeding in. The two feathered arrows slowed down as they got closer to his body, and by the time Isenus was an arm's length, they had completely stopped moving.

Isenus stretched out his hand and delicately picked off the two feathered arrows, and put his backhand on the condensed air bow, "whoosh" The two arrows shot back, and the two feathered arrows flashed in the air, and the two feathered arrows were already hanging on the necks of the two sentinels, and the blood with bubbles kept gushing out of the wounds.

The troops in the hollow had long noticed this figure, but they had been standing still out of caution, and seeing that Isenas had easily counter-killed the two sentinels, and the hostility was exposed, the leader of the troops immediately gave an order: "Line up and meet the enemy!"

Isenus stepped forward and stood in front of the phalanx.

The leader of the army stood in front of the formation, stood with his sword in hand, and said in a deep voice: "I don't know what your intentions are for finding this place with all your might? ”

The leader saw that Isenas was not a good stubble and tried to bluff him with the name of the gods.

"You also know that you are the servants of the gods. Esenas snorted twice. "What is the intention of the descendants of the gods of the sky to go deep into the land of freedom, and hide in the main transportation routes?"

The leader was silent for a moment, realizing that his intentions had been seen through by the people in front of him, and vaguely threatened: "You want to be nosy?"

"How can this be called nosy?" Isenas raised a palm and said in a good time, "As for the matter of killing the descendants of the gods, it is useless to do it, and it is superfluous to find an excuse. ”

After speaking, Isenas grasped his fist, and a cloud of blood mist suddenly exploded on the bodies of more than ten people in front of the phalanx!

Little Paul screamed in fright, and when he looked at it, the steel armor on the bodies of the dozen or so people was twisted and deformed under the control of the ability of the Isenas Sanctuary, and countless iron thorns stretched out to penetrate their bodies.

More than a dozen elite with good fighting spirit died on the spot under a single action of Isenas!

The troop leader's pupils shrank, and the leader was not only well-informed, but also stepped on the edge of the Sanctuary himself, and recognized this situation on the spot, and immediately shouted to the troops behind him: "Be careful! This is a Sanctuary! Everyone stepped back and took off their armor!"

Isenus sneered, leaned back and sat back, and where his body fell, a chair was immediately gathered from the stones, and he caught Isenas steadily.

Little Paul recognized it as the style of the chairs used for fast passage in Artisan Town.

Isenus sat on the chair with one leg crossed, tapped the armrest, and the chair immediately slid forward obediently against the ground, as fast as a grown man running with all his might.

The troops of the Sky God were wearing heavy armor, and it would take three to five minutes to put them on, even with the help of their colleagues, and now they would not be able to take them off in a while.

Isenus sat in his chair and slid silently into the phalanx, snapping his fingers with his left and right hands in a comfortable manner.

Each snap of the fingers was more than a dozen lives, and after four consecutive sounds, none of the descendants of the Sky God ran away, leaving only the leader standing trembling in the middle of a group of corpses.

The hell or demonic image in front of him made the leader feel a little familiar, and his eyes revealed horror, and he trembled and pointed at Izenus, and shouted in a hoarse voice, "It's you! Golden Fleece Adventure Boy, you're not dead yet!"

"Looks like you've seen me before. Isenus stretched out his right hand again and said lightly. "It's a pity that I don't have much impression of you, so I can't talk about the past,"

"Smack!"

With the last snap of his fingers, the leader of the troops fell to the ground covered in blood.

"Call it a day. ”
