Volume 3 Chapter 13 The Fox and the Hound (I)

May 1730 Solar Calendar Peak No. 1 near Kuruno

Young Saiya was walking through the jungle now, and she thought that it was up to her to turn things around. Hopler and the boys are on standby after setting up camp, and she is the only one who is out on the outside, and her goal is to find the damn necromancer. Thieves are the best at dealing with mages, whether it is sneaking up on them from behind, interrupting their chanting, destroying magic circles, etc. Checking the small bag on his waist, the props are still sufficient, poisons, darts, and some magic powder, which are also one of the guarantees of nightingale's self-confidence. To put it bluntly, the nightingale is a high-level thief, the essence is the same, thieves are not a profession that is good at frontal combat, and it is their style to be good at using everything. Of course, there are people like Natalia who study combat skills, but the advantages and disadvantages of the thieves have not changed.

Saiya cautiously walked between the dead trees, although the shade effect of the withered trees was limited, but the concealment of her outfit was still very good, the clothes on her body were black tight-fitting clothes, as long as she stayed in the shadows, she would not make any sound when she walked through the pile of leaves, and the already weak magic was also deliberately suppressed by her, she was confident that unless she appeared on the face of the necromancer, he would never find out, after all, she was a nightingale, the apex of thieves, how could a mere necromancer be difficult to stop her.

The mountain she was on didn't have a name, but the Adventurers' Guild had numbered each of its peaks. The location they teleported to was Peak 1, followed by Peak 2, Peak 3, and Peak 4, each of which was high or low, but all of them were about the same size. It can be seen that this mountain occupies a large area, and because of this, this mountain is enough to meet the demand for a large supply of spices. In recent years, Pamela's business has grown and the demand for spice raw materials has increased day by day, but the amount they collect is still only a part of the mountain, and the abundant resources have made it one of the pillars of Pamela's spice industry.

But now everything is over, not only this mountain, but also to the periphery of Kuruno, almost to the area as large as the gate of Lozema, all the magic power is affected, and precisely because it is a forbidden demon area, the news is slow to transmit, the kingdom only learned about it through Modrila's reminder, and when Kuruno's messenger arrived, the army was ready to leave.

Palinda had never encountered such a terrible incident at such a close distance from the capital in her life, but Palinda did not show an overreaction, she only ordered part of the capital's troops to drive to Kuruno to maintain order and stability in the area, and she did only that.

The crusade against the necromancer here, she doesn't want to be involved. This is also the most surprising and helpless for Moderea, the incident happened so close to Lozema, and Palinda's attitude is still relaxed, because she knows that Modella will definitely find a way to solve it. However, her "handmaiden group" composed of dozens of archmages still did something, and it was within a safe enough range.

This is actually the attitude of all kingdoms towards the Azrals. This organization was originally handled by the Archmage, so even if it happened in the country, the kingdom would not want to consume resources to deal with the necromancer, except that the kingdom would ensure the safety of the citizens after an accident, so they would just leave everything to the Archmage. demon

Things too, just leave them all to the Adventurer's Guild. The kingdom will pay a fee for this, but this cost will be much more than the cost of using the army.

Of course, this also has a disadvantage, after all, Modrella is not a fuel-efficient lamp, but this time, Modrila is also a little helpless, no matter what, she has to solve this matter first, after all, the two important people of the Church of the Holy Word and the Thieves Guild are now there.

No assistance is available and resources are extremely limited. Saya came out with only a loaf of bread and no water. As a thief, she has long been accustomed to lack of resources, she roughly explored the dead wood forest in the range of Peak 1 while nibbling on bread, and there was no harvest as expected, the necromancer's spare body would not be hidden in the entrance pass, her estimate should be in the range of Peak 2 to Peak 3.

Saiya quickly walked through the dead woods, without making a sound, like a ghost. Her physical strength is amazing, and her breath is not disordered when she moves such long distances. Arriving at the entrance of Peak 2, she felt an enchantment in front of her, which had no protective effect and was only used to prevent her from piercing the hole.

"Great Palmera, please guide me through the fog. With a flash of purple light, Saiya used osmis to pass through the barrier without hindrance, not magic, but a gift from Lady Luck, the most generous of gods, Farmera gave the thieves many skills that were almost "cheating".

Entering the No. 2 peak, Saiya was not in a hurry to move forward, she waited at the boundary for a while, and only after feeling that there was no movement did she quietly move forward, because this place had already entered the area of doubt in her heart, she did not dare to continue to run at high speed, she could only walk quickly.

Since she can't travel at high speeds, the speed of exploration will definitely slow down a lot, but she doesn't have much time, and the seasoned nightingale knows how to bridge the gap. She can climb around every corner of peak 1, and here she moves straight to the top.

Necromancers certainly wouldn't be stupid enough to stay at the top of the mountain, but the top of the mountain is indeed the place with the most expanse of views. Saiya took a moment to climb up, and she looked down at the sight of large expanses of dead wood, chilling as the illusion magic collapsed into its own self. But Nightingale wasn't here to look for the necromancer with her eyes, she was at the top of the hill observing the structure of the enchantment. The enchantment is made up of the creator himself, in other words, the center point of the barrier must be where the necromancer used to be. Saiya felt the magic around her, and although the thieves only knew some simple magic, the perception of magic was extremely keen, and after some meditation with her eyes closed, she determined the central point.

With a small jump, Saiya descended from the top of the mountain to the center of the discovered enchantment. The necromancer certainly wouldn't still be there, but since he had cast spells there, he would definitely leave some traces.

But she hesitated as she approached there, and as she got closer there, she smelled a faint smell of blood, and Saiya immediately slowed down vigilantly, this necromancer seemed to have some experience in dealing with thieves. Saiya, who had been silent, made a tsk-tsk sound. Because she saw through the gap in the dead wood that there were limbs scattered at the necromancer's casting location

Pieces of meat. She didn't know if they were human or animals, but there was no doubt that they must have been deliberately placed there by the necromancer. Necromancy allows these things to sense their surroundings, and Saiya is sure that there must be an eye hidden in those pieces of flesh, and that the eye controlled by necromancy can report to the necromancer everything it sees, and once she gets closer, an army of skeletons awaits her. A necromancer with a lot of magical power no longer needs to prepare bones in advance, as long as he wants, he can summon dry bones from hell and bring them back to life. Although the magic power of the leylines will only be used less and less in his body, and it will pass slowly, but the base is huge, and the magic power that consumes the nightingale and the other three people is still more than enough. If the Archmage was still around, such an attempt would undoubtedly be foolish, but at the moment when the Archmage was missing, there were really not many people who could help Yazlar.

Saya had to give up on approaching that place. But since the necromancer has set this trap, it's unlikely that he'll be here. Originally, the magic felt here was very weak, although it was not ruled out that the necromancer was cheating himself, but Saiya felt that the greedy dead should not have time to play psychological warfare with her, it should just be that he hurriedly stayed in order to stop the nightingale from tracking him.

Nightingale ventured to abandon the exploration of Peak 2 and crossed the barrier again, and she entered Peak 3.

This effort has already consumed a lot of time for Saiya, and the sun is sinking in the west, and it should be almost evening. And the No. 3 peak is already far away from the other three, but the nightingale has no way back. Originally, she wanted to repeat the old trick and use the center point of the enchantment as a clue, but when she walked into the deadwood Linsaya on the third peak, she felt that the magic fluctuations here were much stronger.

It's so lucky, Saiya is happy in her heart, of course the necromancer knows how to hide his magic power, but at this moment, he is casting a spell, in this forbidden demon area, anyone using magic will be as obvious as a beacon, and the fluctuations at the peak of No. 2 are obscured by the enchantment, but when he walks here, he obviously feels a strong magic fluctuation.

This is an opportunity, Saiya doesn't know when he will stop, so she has to hurry, she approaches cautiously in the direction of the fluctuation, she can feel the necromancer doing a long guiding magic, Saiya is watching out for a possible trap as she approaches.

It is true that the necromancer hid some eyes around to keep an eye guard, maybe this would have an effect on ordinary thieves, but it didn't stop Saiya, and after mastering the position of each eye, she judged their field of vision, and a route was formed directly in her mind. This route requires twisting left and right, squatting with high jumps, and then crawling again. Saiya didn't hesitate, she skillfully manipulated her body and easily detoured back to the necromancer's vicinity. What was in front of her now was the protective barrier that the necromancer had built to protect herself.

Although there is an enchantment in the way, the necromancer's new body can already be seen here. Saiya kept her breath to a minimum, for fear of being detected by him, while she carefully observed the new body.

This body doesn't look tall, Saiya originally guessed that this would be a body that is good at hand-to-hand combat, but she was wrong, this body looks thin and rickety, and it shouldn't be threatening in the face of her own surprise attack, and the necromancer used this body as his hole card, which was a little surprising.
