Chapter Ninety-Three: Forensics

"What are you doing?" Catrina flashed to the side, "Attracting the Shadow Eater?"

"Yes", Tarrant drew his katana and waited for his prey, "enough of being entangled, it's time to get rid of them." ”

"Weapons can't hurt them," Katrina was still puzzled.

A black shadow flashed at the door, coming, Tarrant stared at the ground, next to the shadow of the stone guard, a figure suddenly appeared, it seemed more rational, stopped next to the stone guard, did not attack, was observing the energy source that had just appeared, it seemed to be able to distinguish the difference, it may still retain the wisdom of life.

But that didn't change Tarrant's plan, and the katana stabbed straight down, and the shadow struggled to burst open after a little resistance.

"You killed it?!" Catrina cried out in surprise, destroying a disembodied thing, incredible.

"The show has just begun", Tarrant watched as more and more dark shadows flashed into the room at the door, and the katana stopped on the ground, ready to destroy the next one.

Two black shadows appeared next to the stone defender at the same time, grabbing the armored shadow and swallowing, the katana went straight into one of the hearts, the shadow disappeared, and the other shadow noticed the abnormality, stopped biting and froze in place, looking left and right, Tarrant took a step forward, and the katana ended its life.

Another hungry shadow pounced, merging with the shadow of the Stone Guardian, it must not have tasted energy for a long time, but unfortunately it went to the wrong place, the katana slashed from right to left, and half of the black shadow swept through the fire and dissipated.

"Look there!" Catrina pointed to the doorway, where a dark figure stopped at the doorframe, looking hesitant, perhaps sensing that it was a trap to lure them.

Tarrant hurried to the door, and without hesitation, nailed it to the doorframe.

The Stone Guardian still radiates an enchanting luster, constructing a deadly trap that the Eater of Shadows will not resist, and the Shadows blindly rush to its side, becoming the target of Katana sanctions.

"It's a massacre," Catrina felt like a sudden discovery of her conscience, feeling pity for the shadow of her death.

"I won't say that when you get bitten," Tarrant said resolutely.

After another round of kills, about seven or eight Shadow Eaters were eliminated, the Stone Guardian's energy began to fade, and the blue luster gradually faded, and it was almost over, Tarrant turned his head to look at his teammates, "Will there be more?" His goal was to wipe them all out.

"It's hard to say," Rex smiled wryly and clasped his hands, "I cast spells to lure them." ”

"No", Tarrant still has a trick, he takes out the Tingwu badge to arouse the night vision energy, the priest can no longer be touched, he uses himself as a bait.

The four of them held their breath and stared at the ground, now using their bodies to make bets, and there was no room for slackness.

Two minutes passed, and there were only shadows of the four members of the squad on the ground, and they did not appear.

"No," Tarrant and Rex looked at each other.

Kitty pointed to the crack in the door, "...... over there"

Half of the figure was exposed on the wall, and the other half was hiding behind the crack in the door, it was observing the situation of the food, and sure enough, there was still wisdom, it saw through the energy source just now that it was a trap.

Tarrant walked towards the door, only took two steps, the black shadow trembled, flashed into the aisle, Tarrant chased after him, both sides of the aisle were pitch black, there was no vision, disappeared.

The thing learned quickly, and knowing that someone was going to deal with them, he didn't dare to take the risk lightly, and Tarrant turned around and said, "Ran away." ”

"It's smart, it won't dare to appear again", Katrina reflected on the battle, "you killed a lot." ”

"Grab a bite to eat, get ready to hit the road", Tarrant handed the katana to Katrina, "Is the forensic technique ready?"

"No problem", the mage took the knife and chanted in a low voice.

White energy fused into the blade of the katana, and Tarrant waited excitedly and eagerly, "How?"

The mage looked embarrassed, "I'...... I didn't recognize it. ”

"What? It's magically resistant?"

"No, I can't trace any clues", Katrina stared at the katana with strange eyes, "It hasn't moved in a long time, I can only sense that it has four-star lethality." ”

Chewing on a shriveled fruit, Kitty asked, "Will forensic art fail too?"

"It's not a failure, it's a ...... Identification is very limited", Katrina explained slightly unconvinced, "Identification is a kind of retrospective time, deconstructing the history of the identified object, when the magic energy and the object merge the moment the mage must quickly make all aspects of the source, to find out the relevant situation of the item, I try to find its recent energy production, except for four-star kills, I can not find any other traces of use." ”

"How long is it in the near future?" Tarrant asked.

"For almost fifty years, I can now discern the traces of use in fifty years. ”

In other words, the ranger in the aisle had been dead for more than fifty years, and the sword had not been used again with the departure of its owner, until the iron sword that had cut off the bone golem just now, and Tarrant took the katana in disappointment, "So, it can't play its full role...... By the way, since it is a retrospective of the identified object, how can the mage identify the moral camp of a person?"

The mage thought for a moment, " The moment the magic comes into contact with the human body, the caster will conduct a quick analysis of the body's physical fitness to obtain the physical function value, in addition, it is also necessary to establish a short-term mental link, test the subject's moral response to the event, which belongs to the subconscious intuition of the target's instinct, which cannot be concealed or disguised, the whole process is completed in a very short time, the subject will not be aware of this process, and the fast-thinking prophet can get more information before the magic wears off, and find the weapon use and magic use preferences from the subject's memory. ”

"Use this to know what weapon the target is good at?"

"No, this involves more advanced knowledge", Katrina waved her hand, "I have to say, mage is the most knowledgeable and wise profession of all professions, in order to successfully cast spells, not only to learn to chant, concentrate, and gather energy, but also to understand knowledge other than spells, such as the low-level magic of forensics, when identifying weapons, mages need to understand the craftsmanship of weapons. Utility and even the entire history of weapon development, in order to find a legendary story to match, when the object of identification is a person, the test is the psychological erudition of the mage, only the judgment of the moral camp, different mages may produce different conclusions, as for the weapon is good at, it depends on whether the caster's thinking touch is keen, he must dig out the target's excitement in a short time. ”

"Excited, like this?" Tarrant drew his knife and slashed twice in the air.

"This will not deceive the judgment of the mage, the prophet will look for the excitement points in your past love, when a warrior fights, even if he does not exert his full strength, there will be fluctuations in the emotion, such as hitting the target, splashing blood, hitting the armor, etc., in the subconscious of the person to produce excitement, excitement, fear, as long as you find your relevant memories during this fluctuation period, your mind will tell the prophet that you are good at weapons. ”

"Katrina," Rex, who had been silent, suddenly said, "If that's the case, every time the Prophet casts his discernment, he steals the target's mind?"

"Stealing?" Catrina thought carefully, "It can also be said to steal, but what is stolen is a specific target, your battle memory, and it is very limited, and it is impossible to even know who you are fighting against, who your teammates are, what attacks you are subjected to, it is just a high-pitched moment of the weapon you use, in addition, the identification energy is very unstable and can only be effective for a moment." When I cast my Identification Spell on you, I saw a vast white cloud in my head, my vision was rapidly falling, and by the time I could calmly observe my surroundings, I had passed through the clouds and stood on the ground, and nothing was gained in the process. ”

After the mage explained this, Tarrant realized that the Identification Technique was a high-level low-level spell, and he remembered a person, "What is the concept of if someone can identify a large area of people in the surrounding area with a single Identification Technique?"

Katrina's eyes looked upwards to the right, "First, it is impossible for the identification technique to produce such a large range of energy, and second, it is necessary to detect the thinking of everyone in the range at the moment of energy generation, and its thinking ability is not something that ordinary humanoids can do, are you talking about spirit sucking monsters?"

Tarrant laughed, he looked at Rex and retorted, "What if he had some kind of energy diffusion device?"

"Energy diffusion? It may increase the scope of identification, but it cannot replace the knowledge required for identification, and this process still needs to be analyzed by the mage himself, so in a short period of time, I believe that creatures with a mind of 28 or less cannot do it. ”

The mage's expression was serious, but Tarrant couldn't believe it, "Thinking more than 28?!" He had always thought that it was not difficult to identify a range of targets.

"Yes," the mage nodded heavily, "Conservative estimate." ”

If the mage was serious, Tarrant would have to reconsider the identity of the prophet, "What creatures can have such high thinking skills?" He had seen the prophet walk in a way that was by no means a spirit sucker.

"In terms of humanoids, maybe only the Psionic Monsters, if you include other species, then dragons, lichs and the like, and some ancient races......"

"What are you kidding", Tarrant almost broke out in a cold sweat, "Rex, what do you think?"

The priest was dumbfounded, "Maybe that was the closest we were to death." ”

Tarrant recalled his time with the prophet, and he should have rejoiced that he had been kinder.

"Is there anything else you want to ask?" the mage rubbed his thin waist.

"No, eat something and get ready to go," he said, handing the food to the mage.

The team walked out of the room after a brief meal, and the charcoal splintered in the aisle did not change, indicating that the nearby area was safe, and Tarrant walked at the front and carefully poked the floor forward.

They hadn't gone far before they reached the end of the aisle, where a wall abruptly blocked the team's path.

"It's not a hallucination, is it?" Tarrant patted the wall, solid.

Rex stood behind him, and his body replied well, and he was able to walk on his own, "If it's the end, they can put the door of that room here just now, it's not logical." ”

"Maybe it's a trap," Catrina took two steps back, ready to cast a spell.

Tarrant flashed to the left, waiting for the mage to cast a spell.

The mage didn't gather his energy, "What's that?" she walked towards the right side of the wall, and in the corner, she stopped, "I see", she took a step, her body melted into the wall, and vanished.
