Chapter 1128: Tagaroka
Leo, who had just left the woods, turned back and reappeared in the woods, his face was a little gloomy at the moment, and his mood seemed to be very bad, and he also used the dual abilities of the spiritual network and super long perception at the first time, carefully inspecting every inch of this land, and soon he was standing in the place where the middle-aged man who had just disappeared from the phantom illusion.
The middle-aged man just now thought that Leo had left, so he didn't disguise himself when he fled, and the place where he last stayed had energy fluctuations that were completely different from the surroundings, as eye-catching as ink spots on white paper.
"Sure enough, I was tricked!" Leo said, the gloomy expression on his face quickly dissipated, replaced by a self-deprecating smile, and he muttered to himself as he controlled the spirit net to catch the remaining energy fluctuations in that place.
In fact, after leaving, Leo quickly felt that something was wrong, this kind of wrongness mainly stemmed from the fact that the existence was too obedient from beginning to end, almost cooperating with his actions and words and deeds, at that time Leo felt that the other party was fearless, but in hindsight, the other party was more like knowing that Leo was strong, and he was weak, so he behaved obediently.
Once there is suspicion, things that seemed normal before become very abnormal, for example, Leo has been so sure from beginning to end that the other party is a spiritual life form in the universe, and he has never suspected that the other party is another mysterious existence that can affect the spirit, and the reason why he is so sure is only because he thinks that the power that can silently affect him, a seventh-level psionic being, can only come from a cosmic life form that has never been determined, such as a spiritual life form.
Almost blindly believing in his own arbitrary speculation, and this speculation is full of loopholes no matter how you look at it, so that after Leo left, after a little retrospection, he felt that the whole process was so ridiculous, and then realized that something was wrong.
And now this special energy fluctuation he had captured was like unmistakable evidence that he had just been tricked by a mysterious being who possessed a powerful psychic influence ability, but was extremely weak himself.
The reason why that mysterious being is so powerful is because the other party's mental manipulation ability is so strong that it can easily guide Leo's thinking, making him unconsciously believe everything he sees and thinks, and even if even the most obvious loopholes appear in front of him during the influence period, he will not have any suspicions, such as the indescribable relief on the stone throne.
After Leo saw the relief, he immediately subconsciously thought that this was the mysterious existence, thinking that the mysterious existence tried to search for his memories and was swallowed up by the stone throne built by the spirit world, but if you think about it carefully, the changes on the stone throne are more related to the various encounters in the Poseidon world than the devouring unknown mysterious existence, especially when facing the Poseidon incarnation, under the pressure brought by the Poseidon, Leo and the Stone Throne have a closer connection.
However, under the spiritual guidance of that mysterious being, Leo saw a little change on the stone throne, and immediately connected with the disappearance of the mysterious being, without considering other reasons, and thinking about it in hindsight, only the same power could have an impact on the stone throne, that is to say, at least it was an omega-level high-level lifeform, and obviously that mysterious existence could not be an omega-level high-level lifeform, or even a high-level lifeform.
Because if the mysterious existence itself is really powerful, even if it is just a high-level life form like Leo, there is no need to entangle with Leo in this way, and even in the end, he does not hesitate to trick Leo into leaving by faking his death, so this mysterious existence has extremely powerful spiritual abilities at the same time, but it is not particularly strong itself.
This can also be seen from the way the opponent attacks the caravan, if the opponent is really extremely powerful and can easily destroy a heavily armed caravan head-on, there is no need to use methods such as creating illusions and controlling spirits to break through the caravan's defenses one by one.
Being teased like this, and saying some secret things, Leo was naturally unwilling to let go of that mysterious existence like this, so after completely recording and capturing the energy fluctuations of that mysterious existence, Leo adjusted the perception range of the spiritual network to deal with that energy fluctuation, and looked for the location of that mysterious existence in the surrounding forest, and the camp of the Kata tribe not far away was naturally the focus of his search.
However, that mysterious being was obviously very careful, even if he had deceived Leo before and let Leo leave by himself, he did not continue to stay here, nor did he return to the caravan, but fled as fast as he could, so Leo's spiritual net only caught that special energy fluctuation in a few places far away from this forest.
Although from the location of the energy fluctuation, Leo can deduce the direction of the other party's escape, and if he wants to chase, he can also catch up with the other party, but after careful thinking, Leo chooses not to chase the other party, but marks the unique energy fluctuation on the other party's body in the perception sequence of the spirit network, and once this mysterious existence appears within the scanning range of his spirit network, it will be discovered as soon as possible, and the spirit network will spontaneously leave a psionic imprint on his body.
However, Leo did not fully believe in the energy fluctuations left when the mysterious being left, because judging from the other party's cunning behavior, the other party may also have guessed that Leo would return, deliberately leaving some traces to make Leo believe that he had escaped, but in fact he was still hiding nearby, such as the camp of the Kata tribe.
Leo didn't choose to leave directly as he did just now, but walked towards the camp of the Kata tribe, he chose to still go with the caravan, not only because he also suspected that the mysterious being was still outside the caravan or camp, but also because he hoped to find clues about the mysterious existence from the caravan's side.
He felt that the appearance of that mysterious existence in the Fire Dancer Caravan might not be an accident, and even from the people he attacked the caravan, he was more like he was targeting the Fire Dancer Caravan, so there must be a reason for the Fire Dancer Caravan to be attacked, and as long as this reason is found, he may be able to find out the other identities of that mysterious existence.
When Leo returned to the caravan, the misunderstanding between the caravan and the Kata tribe camp had not yet been resolved, and the leaders of the two sides were still talking in front of the gate of the Kata tribe, but judging from the fact that the warriors on both sides did not hold weapons, but did their own things, it was obvious that the misunderstanding had been almost explained.
Both sides were frightened just now, one side suddenly found that the gate that should have been closed was open, and there was an armed caravan outside the door, while the other side found that the originally empty camp had many more people out of thin air, and everyone had weapons in their hands, in this case, both sides still did not move, and it was already considered very lucky.
However, the reason for not doing it is also because the positions of the two sides are still separated by some distance, and there is also a protective wall of the campsite, although the gate of the camp is open, there is a spare door mechanism at the top of the gate, which can be lowered at any time to block the gate, so the safety of the camp is not too much of a problem.
If the caravan had entered the camp at this moment, and the two sides suddenly appeared in front of each other, then someone would have instinctively attacked the stranger who suddenly appeared around them in panic, and then the fire dancer caravan would inevitably have a desperate battle with the people of the Kata tribe camp without warning and without reason, until both sides calmed down at the same time, or one of them was completely killed.
Leo, who returned to the caravan, instantly thought of this method that was enough to completely destroy the fire dancer caravan, and he couldn't help but suspect that this might be what the mysterious being was going to do next, and it was no exaggeration to say that if he hadn't been in the caravan, then the camp of the Kata tribe would be full of corpses by now.
The people of the caravan did not know that they had just escaped a danger of destruction, and they did not show any anomalies about Leo's return, and they did not even realize that Leo, an outsider, had just left, and all their experiences were now focused on entering the camp to recuperate.
Although they have not encountered any monster attacks along the way, compared to other business routes, it can be said that it is extremely smooth, but they don't know that they will not encounter monster attacks on the road, so they are missing and are concentrating on the surrounding situation, plus walking on the mountain road, the physical exhaustion is far beyond walking on the normal road, so the caravan can be said to be exhausted at the moment, just thinking about a safe place, eating a little hot food, and then sleeping well.
Soon, with the loud order of the caravan supervisor Bran Fire Dancer, the members of the caravan who had already been prepared began to enter the camp one after another under the annotation of the warriors of the Kata tribe camp, and under the guidance of the camp manager, they went to the camp arranged for them, and began to camp and repair according to the normal procedures.
After arranging all the things, Blanche asked his assistant if Leo had returned, and after receiving a positive answer, he handed over the matter to his men, and he hurried to the camp arranged for Leo.
"Mr. Leo, ...... just now" Bran was about to ask something when he saw Leo thinking about things in the tent, but the question got stuck in his throat before he could say it, because his mind was blank at the moment, and he couldn't remember what question he wanted to ask, but he had an urge to ask, and this abnormality made him can't help but say, "What do I want to ask? Why can't I remember?"
Seeing Bran's appearance, Leo was able to guess that the other party's current performance was probably a side effect of the mysterious being's mental influence, obviously a lot of memories had been erased along with the mysterious being's removal of the spiritual influence on their bodies, but because the other party acted in a hurry, it was not erased cleanly, which made Bran have this abnormal situation.
Leo motioned for Bran to sit down, who was still struggling to remember what question he wanted to ask, and then quickly recounted the mysterious being that could affect the minds of other people and some of the things that had happened before.
"Tagaroga!" Bran had a look of horror on his face as he listened to Leo's account, and couldn't help but say a name in an ancient tribal language.
There are thousands of tribes in the Moisan continent, not counting those primitive tribes hidden in the wasteland, although their language is common in some places, most of them are completely independent, and no one in the world can understand all the tribal languages, and Leo is no exception.
But now the name that Bran is talking about, Leo can understand, because this name is a fixed voice and tone among most of the tribes in the Moissanite continent, which means that these tribes attach great importance to this name, and it is also the hidden meaning behind the name that they are extremely afraid of.
According to legend, Tagaroca is the embodiment of death in the wasteland, where he appears, there is death, and death is not one by one, it is a group, and even a whole tribe dies overnight.
If it was just death, it would not make all the tribes in the Moisan continent afraid, the reason for the fear of these tribes is that all the people and tribes who died because of Tagaroka died inexplicably, such as a couple who originally loved each other suddenly killed each other as if they were enemies, and the expressions on their faces while killing each other still looked like they loved each other deeply.
Death is not something to be feared by the tribes of Moissan, in their opinion, their death is not death in the true sense, their death is just a return to the arms of Mother Nature in the wasteland, and they are reborn by the Mother Nature in another way.
However, in their opinion, the souls of all those who have been killed by the dead spirits in strange ways will be taken away by the dead spirits, and it is impossible to be reborn according to the normal procedure, but to die permanently, and this is what they are really afraid of.
This fear has been rooted in all the tribes of Moisan since childhood, and because various legends about Tagaroka have been compiled into bedside stories that every tribe's children have heard since childhood, and they are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so that in this era, people born in the tribe will still be afraid of Tagaroga.
For a while, the whole kingdom of England was obsessed with these tribal stories, and wrote these stories into books, plays, etc., among which the story of Tagaroka has been adapted into many kinds of plays, and it can be said that it can be said that it is a household name.
At this moment, Leo also found the information about Tagaroka from the database in Bran's suggestive exclamation, and immediately reacted after understanding why Bran heard his own narration, because some of the legends recorded in Tagaroga's materials were strikingly similar to what he narrated.
I just don't know if that mysterious being is the legendary Tagarica, or if the other party just drew inspiration from the legend of Tagaroga and created his own method of using his abilities.
