Under the deep night sky, bursts of blue light flickered and flickered, hitting the clear water on the side, reflecting a beautiful light.

This light is beautiful, but it is also full of danger.

If a legal professional appeared here, he would definitely cry out in surprise.

Because Paula's current use is the most notorious "soul searching" of all legal professions.

As the name suggests, the so-called soul search is a type of spell that specifically targets the soul and searches the soul. Creatures or ghosts that fall victim to this spell will be forcibly searched for soul memories by the caster.

The caster can look through the soul for what they want to know, while the caster will suffer irreparable damage after the spell ends. In serious cases, even the soul is directly broken, and even the ghost can't do it.

Of course, such a dangerous spell is not available to all mage-type classes. Dylan, for example, won't.

And in Paula's magic spell, there happens to be a magic array that can achieve the same effect.

For a long time······

Poof!

The corpse suddenly fell to the ground, and the magical aura dissipated at the same time, and the forest returned to its original state.

Dylan stepped forward and asked, "How's it going?"

Paula glanced at the corpse on the ground, and the expression on her face was a little gloomy.

"Didn't find any clues?"

Seeing Paula's expression, Dylan asked with some surprise, "Don't he know where the stronghold is?" ”

"There are clues. Paula had a constipated expression on her face and said, "I found something in his memory, maybe, may be ······." ”

"What could be? Don't ramble, say it. Seeing Paula's expression of wanting to speak and stopping, Dylan had some bad premonitions in his heart.

Paula opened her mouth to speak, but Dylan waved her hand to stop her. "Wait! Someone's coming, let's stay out of the way. ”

With that, Dylan waved his hand to summon Rania and had Rania lead him into the Void Mezzanine, while Paula cast a spell of invisibility.

The two of them hid on the edge of the waterhole and waited quietly.

"Hurry up! It's the front that's just glowing. Maybe it's the person we're looking for. ”

A gruff voice came from the forest, followed by the sound of clothes rubbing against the grass and boots stepping into the dirt.

Dylan looked out through a layer of boundary membrane and saw dozens of men in hunting costumes emerging from the woods.

In the bright moonlight, Dylan could clearly see the physical features of these people, and the mark on their chests that belonged to the Dark Council.

"It's the people of the Dark Council, what are they doing here at such a late hour. ”

Dylan wondered how a group of people from the Dark Council could appear in this remote woods dozens of miles away from the city.

Just as he was wondering, he heard a familiar voice again.

"Stephen, are you sure you read that right, that's where the blue light comes from?"

Dylan's eyes widened sharply at the sound of this. "How could it be····· She. ”

Dylan looked in amazement at the figure that came out of the woods.

She was wearing a snow-white dress, with a short silver ponytail casually resting on her shoulders behind her, and a pair of turquoise pupils shining in the night.

This woman with such a beautiful appearance, even exuding a burst of fairy energy, is none other than Emilia that Dylan has not met for a long time.

"Amilia, she came after me in Port of the Americas, and she never left. But it's a long way from Port of the Americas, so what is she doing here? ”

Dylan was puzzled, but he couldn't come out and ask. Now, when he wasn't showing up.

Emilia asked, and saw the formation diagram carved on the edge of the water tank. "Someone has set up a magic circle here. ”

She looked around for a week, but she didn't see any other figures at the scene except for her own group.

"Steve!"

Emilia exclaimed, "Did you just see anyone or animals leave here?"

A big man behind him shook his head and said, "We haven't seen anything alive." Perhaps, we are a step too late. ”

Emilia looked through the corpse first, then walked over to the magic circle and examined it carefully. "This person just died, and the magic array was just drawn today, and even the elemental fluctuations have not yet dissipated. ”

She stood up and said with a determined face: "You guys scattered to look for it, the people who set up the magic circle must not have gone far." ”

Steve asked again, "What do you do if you find it?" ”

"Be courteous, and let me know right away. ”

Emilia said with a serious face: "Those who can use this magic array must be mages who are not weak, and you can only treat each other with courtesy." And..."

She added: "When you see each other, you must inform them as soon as you see each other that you are from the Dark Council. Otherwise, you are likely to be attacked by the other side. ”

"Yes!" Steve nodded in agreement, then directed the others to chase around.

Everyone else left, except for Emilia, who remained where she was. She waited for a moment, then suddenly said into the air, "I've let the others go, I wonder if you'd like to show up and meet me." ”

Emilia wasn't sure if the other had used a spell like Concealment, or if she had actually left before she arrived. She just habitually said something into the air, and if she didn't get a response, she would leave immediately after a while.

This little trick he used a lot, and Dylan was well aware of it. However, Paula didn't know that the other party was cheating on her, so she simply showed her figure.

Emilia sensed the fluctuations of the magic element, and as soon as she turned around, she saw Paula, who had the ability to discern.

"It turned out to be Black Raven Paula!"

Emilia didn't show the slightest expression of surprise, she said calmly: "I didn't expect to see the famous black crow here, it's really an honor. ”

Paula laughed weirdly: "Hehehehehe······ You are so gracious, and Paula is honored to meet you on this quiet and beautiful night. ”

Emilia exchanged a few words with Paula before getting to business. "I beg your pardon for taking the liberty of asking, did you come to this remote woods for the sake of a puppeteer? ”

"A boy playing with a puppet. ”

Paula repeated before replying, "I'm sorry, but I'm not interested in puppets." There are just some personal matters to be taken care of here. ”

Hearing Paula's reply, Emilia secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and then raised her eyebrows to reveal a smile: "You also have important things to deal with, so I won't bother." Have a great evening. ”

As she spoke, Emilia lifted the corner of her skirt with her left hand and bent down to salute.

Paula also politely returned the salute and intended to offer a blessing.

Suddenly······

"Here, he was found. ”

The two were startled at the same time, then looked at each other.

Emilia looked overjoyed, and then hurriedly said, "I still have some things to deal with, so I'll leave first." ”

After finishing speaking, the cyan light on his body flashed, and the whole person flew into the air and fell towards the east of the woods.

It wasn't until her figure completely disappeared that Dylan slowly revealed himself from the void.

"Master!" Paula stepped forward and said, "It seems that the Dark Council has an important event, should we come forward and take a look." ”

Dylan withdrew his gaze from the distance and replied lightly: "Don't care about what you shouldn't care, this is how long you live." You have lived for so many years, this truth should be understood. ”

Paula nodded yes.

Although he said this, Dylan actually wanted to go over and see it very much, not only because of Emilia, but also because in that direction, there was a smell that Dylan was very familiar with.

It's just that what Dylan is most concerned about now is the information that Paula has found out.

He continued with the question: "What you just saw from the deceased, say it immediately. ”

Paula hesitated, but decided to tell the news she had just gotten in her soul.

···········

On the other side, in the woods, only a few hundred meters apart, Emilia seemed to sense something.

She glanced back in the direction of the waterhole and muttered, "How can there be some ominous premonitions, could it be that Paula will cause me some kind of obstacle." ”

"Miss Emilia. ”

Carrying a frightened teenager in his hand, Steve asked Emilia, "Are we going to send him back to the base right away?" ”

Emilia glanced back at Steve, her face changing several times.

Of course, she didn't want to give up this piece of fat in her hands, but on the other hand, she couldn't let go of Dylan's tie-up.

"Miss Emilia!"

Steve urged: "People from other forces may catch up at any time, please decide as soon as possible." ”

"You lead the team to escort him back to the stronghold first, and I will find Dylan first. Emilia hesitated, but made a decision that she might regret.

Steve said with some concern: "Now all the forces are looking for this kid, and the Holy See has even sent thirteen members of the Knights. Only those of us may not be able to guarantee his safety. You know, Dylan wasn't important, but he was the president's own order. If you can't put it on either side, you're likely to get nothing. ”

"I see!"

Emilia interrupted Steve with a wave of her hand, "You're holding out for two days, and after two days, whether you find Dylan or not, I'm going to catch up." ”

Her face was firm, and once she made a decision, there was no possibility of maneuvering.

Steve knows her personality and doesn't ramble anymore.

"Okay, then I'll go back first, please be sure to do it as soon as possible. ”

With that, Steve walked out of the woods with dozens of men. They had to travel overnight until they were back to their stronghold.

Emilia headed in the direction of Harbour City.

In Harbour City, there is also a team of Osborne's descendants, unlike those who are loyal to the Dark Council. Their primary purpose was to find Dylan.
