Chapter 1125: Soul and Flesh Division

Although the Kata tribe is a hidden tribe living deep in the mountains, it still has strong ties with the outside world, not only arranging council commissioners in the Kuishan Alliance, but also conducting a lot of trade with the Kuishan Alliance.

In order to facilitate communication with the outside world, the Kata tribe has set up a number of strongholds and camps in the Kuishan League, and the camp located in the mountain passes of the Newsky Mountains is one of the strongholds for communication with the outside world.

This stronghold is located in the middle of the mountain pass, and if you continue to walk further, you need to enter the Blade Canyon, and after passing through the Blade Canyon, you will have crossed the Newsky Mountains to reach the eastern foot of the mountain, so this stronghold is usually a resting point that the caravan must stop.

It's just that the purpose of the Kata tribe to set up this stronghold is not to provide a resting point for caravans, the main role of this stronghold is to sell the skins and medicinal materials collected by the Kata tribe, and this is actually a commodity distribution center for the Kata tribe.

Because of the mixed dragons and snakes in the caravans, and the fact that the camp itself hoarded a large amount of goods that could be exchanged for goods at any time, the Kata tribe had already considered that there would be outlaws who would take risks to raid the camp when they established this camp.

For this reason, many tribal warriors and hunters were stationed in the camp, and two shamans with extraordinary powers were also arranged here to ensure the safety of the camp.

In fact, it was so well arranged that several subsequent attacks on the camp were easily tackled by the warriors and hunters, and because of the shaman, the camp remained intact even in the depths of the monster-infested forest.

For those caravans traveling by land, the Kata tribe's camp is a safe night's rest in a dangerous environment.

However, the sanctuary was now an eerie sight to the eyes of the Fire Dancer caravan, the doors of the camp were completely open, and the interior of the camp that was supposed to be a large number of people was now empty.

Normal people who know how to think a little bit will think of this scene at first glance, and the people who are similar to the camp may have been transferred back by the Kata tribe, and the Kata tribe has given up speculation about this camp, but the lighting torches that are still burning in the camp, and the large number of prey furs on the ground that have not been sorted out and stored on the ground, remind everyone all the time that the actual situation here is completely different from their guess.

If the Kata tribe plans to abandon this camp, no matter how urgent it is, they will inevitably notify the Torch Harbor Hunter Rest Area located at the other end of the mountain road, not only because of their close relationship with the Kuishan Alliance, but also because the Kata tribe has also arranged a team of hunters to stay there for a long time in the Hunter Rest Area to assist Torch Harbor in dealing with the monsters and beasts in the forest.

However, judging from what the Fire Dancer caravan saw as it passed by the Hunters' Rest Area, the Kata Tribe hunters stationed there were still carrying out their duties normally, and there was no sign of receiving the revocation of the camp order from their words and deeds.

If you insist on saying that those hunters are deliberately acting, then the acting ability of those hunters is definitely at the master level.

Compared to the ordinary members of the caravan, the situation was very unusual, and those who knew that someone in the caravan had disappeared could not help but have an idea in their minds, that is, the camp had been attacked, and the attack happened so suddenly and forcefully that almost everyone in the camp was taken away by the attackers before they could make any resistance.

Therefore, the torches used for lighting in the camp will still burn, and the large amount of fur goods used by the Kata tribe to trade will be piled up on the ground untied.

Bran ordered the caravan to remain on alert, and then summoned the caravan's top brass to discuss countermeasures.

The caravan captain spoke first: "Judging from the burning of the torches, they disappeared not long ago, if it is really because of the attack of an unknown monster, then the monster must not have gone far, this place is still very dangerous, I suggest that you set off immediately, do not stay here, and cross the mountains overnight." ”

Hearing the captain's proposal, everyone agreed, whether the attack happened not long ago, whether the monster was still here or not, the empty camp was an unsettling place, not a good place for the caravan to recuperate.

However, in the face of this proposal, one of the squad stewards of the caravan suddenly reminded, "Could it be the same monster that attacked the camp and the monster that captured those people?"

After this reminder was spoken, everyone immediately fell silent, this is not to say that the steward of this squad is extraordinarily careful and calm, in fact, everyone thought of this, but no one debunked it, because they still had a glimmer of hope, hoping that the situation would be different from what they had guessed, because if the conjecture was true, then it meant that the monster that attacked the camp had been eyeing them from the beginning.

"Don't you think it's strange?" At this time, Leo jumped down from the back of the mountain he was riding, walked to the side of the people who were discussing countermeasures, and suddenly said: "Compared to your caravan, the defense force of this camp should be stronger, right, if the monster staring at the caravan and the monster attacking the camp are the same monster, then it is fully capable of swallowing the entire caravan on the previous road, why let you come here?"

"Yes, yes, if even the camp of the Kata tribe can be solved silently, what is the difficulty of solving these people in our caravan!" Hearing Leo's words, everyone immediately showed a look of shock, and the gloom on their faces quickly subsided.

"If that's the case, it's even more troublesome, then it means that there are two powerful monsters entrenched here. But then Bran's words pulled everyone back to reality.

After realizing that the situation was not getting better, but worse, everyone fell silent again, and their faces were full of worry.

Just one monster was enough to make them difficult to deal with, and now that there were two monsters staring at them, they felt like they couldn't get out of the mountains anymore, and they couldn't help but feel a trace of despair in their hearts.

"I think there's really just one monster here, not two. Leo suddenly uttered a diametrically opposed speculation, which contradicted his previous warning, and made people feel dazed when they heard it. Then Leo was heard to continue: "Sometimes the eyes, body, mind, and even soul can deceive yourself into believing that everything you see is real, but if you think about it, is it true?"

Naturally, the crowd understood that Leo meant that the camp they saw before them was an illusion, an illusion created by a monster, and it was difficult for them to agree with it.

Because all the people of the Fire Dancer tribe in the caravan knew and were close to real about what the illusion looked like, almost every adult of the Fire Dancer tribe had taken a fire potion prepared by the tribal shaman and entered the fire illusion to receive the baptism of natural fire, and those who could not recognize the fire illusion had to stay in the tribe and do all kinds of labor.

Later, during their long trading experience in Mozambia, they also saw all kinds of monsters and enemies with extraordinary powers, and they also encountered illusions of extraordinary powers, but because they had been trained in fire illusions, they were easily able to see through illusions that were extremely real to others.

If the camp of the Kata tribe in front of you is just an illusion created by a monster, then even if some people in the caravan can't distinguish these illusions, it will definitely not be impossible for everyone to distinguish them.

So after Leo uttered his speculation, no one thought it was right.

Leo didn't intend to explain anything further, he told Bran that he wanted to walk around the caravan, and then turned around and walked towards the rest of the caravan without waiting for Bran to agree.

Unlike other high-level leaders in the caravan, Bran had many conversations and other contacts with Leo on the road, which reduced the suspicion in Bran's heart to the extreme, and also made Bran feel even more that the other party was not an ordinary person, or more accurately, not an ordinary magnate.

So when Leo calmly stated his judgment that Bran didn't think the camp in front of him could be an illusion even like the other caravan leaders, he didn't completely deny Leo's speculation.

And he also felt that Leo asked to walk around the caravan because he found something, and he wanted to follow Leo to see what Leo was going to do, but as the head of the caravan, he couldn't leave everyone who was now discussing countermeasures, so he could only look at Leo's back regretfully, quickly consult everyone's opinions, and make a final decision.

As Bran had guessed, Leo had indeed brought up the reason why he had moved around the caravan because he had found some clues, and he only needed to actually confirm his guess, not through the spirit web.

While on the way, Leo discovered that the unknown existence staring at the caravan may have the ability to disable the spirit network, because he used the spirit network to infiltrate the bodies of everyone in the caravan and scan their physical conditions, which also made him know the physical condition of everyone in the caravan well, even more than the person himself.

However, no matter how much he scanned, he couldn't find anything out of it, but when he analyzed the feedback that was all right, his instinctive perception always reminded him that something was wrong, but he just couldn't see what was wrong.

It wasn't until the caravan arrived at the camp of the Kata tribe that everyone saw the strange situation in the camp, and almost everyone fell into a state of panic, worry, and even despair, that Leo realized that something was wrong.

According to the normal situation, if the mood swing is so huge, their body will have corresponding physiological reactions, such as rapid heartbeat, increased blood flow, sweating, muscle tension and so on.

However, through the feedback information after scanning the spirit network, Leo found that when all the people in the caravan showed obvious panic, worry, and other expressions on their faces, the organs of various parts of the body remained in a calm state, as if the caravan people's spirit and body were cut off, becoming two independent individuals that would not affect each other.

In addition, the Fire Dancer Caravan is a caravan that travels all over the year round, except for a small number of members in the caravan who are newly recruited, most of the others are veterans, and they can survive monster attacks again and again, which proves their strength, and also tempers their will more strongly.

Although these veterans will also feel fear and fear when they encounter danger, but no matter how afraid and afraid, their firm will will definitely make them have the corresponding fighting spirit and hold the weapons in their hands to deal with the attack of the source of fear.

But now the fire dancer caravan was all caught in inexplicable fear and worry, although they held weapons and made a corresponding state of vigilance, but none of them showed any fighting spirit.

There is no doubt that in such a state, if the caravan is attacked, the people of the caravan will either run away screaming, or they will be completely crushed by fear and will not be able to make any resistance.

It is clear that there is a force influencing the spirits of all the people in the caravan, slowly accumulating the negative emotions such as fear and worry in their hearts in a silent way, and will eventually crush them completely.

And the purpose of the other party's doing this, Leo was also faintly aware of it just now, and its purpose was probably to come to the negative emotions in the hearts of everyone in the caravan.

Although Leo's spiritual network has been unable to produce the desired effect under the influence of unknown forces, his perception has become particularly sensitive at this time, and he can often find some anomalies that he cannot find under his sane situation, so now he is walking around the caravan to use his perception to find out the source of the current situation.

Leo, who was walking around, changed the direction of his movement by virtue of the change in the strength of his perception, shuttled through the crowd of the caravan, and soon came to the logistics team in the caravan, most of the people here are recruiters, and their job is also very simple, that is, to provide services to the rest of the caravan in terms of food and daily life.

These people were acting even more unbearable than the rest of the caravan at the moment, they were completely controlled by the fear in their hearts, one by one curled up together, looking around worriedly, although they were also holding weapons, but those weapons were more like decorations to them, and some even fell to the ground several times because of their weak bodies.

The only thing they can do now is to pray to the gods they believe in, praying that the gods can help them through this difficult time, and some of them complain about why they joined the Fire Dancer Caravan and leave their hometown, and some even feel that if they are really attacked by monsters and they die under the sharp claws or sharp teeth of monsters, then it must be the fault of the Fire Dancer Caravan.

Leo stopped as he walked here, his eyes swept over the support staff in front of him, and finally stopped at a woman in the team who appeared to be pregnant.
