Chapter 15: Strange Fluctuations

The Shadow Realm is a dark plane that is both connected and coexisting with the main material realm, glowing with ghostly light. The way it overlaps with the main physical realm and resembles the front and back sides of things, the plane traveler can make swift long-distance jumps through the Guò Shadow Realm. The Shadow Realm also borders other planes, and spellcasters can use guò magic to use the Shadow Realm as a springboard to visit many of the planes.

It is a malevolent realm of darkness and power.

It is a hidden place that hates the light.

It is a desolate frontier land far from the unknown.

It is a paradise of exile devoid of order.

But if you're determined to take a trip through it, don't worry, it's a place for all kinds of life, food and water are plentiful, and there are few dangerous creatures, and the only thing you need is to wear a few extra clothes to avoid getting a headache from the shadow cold - the Plane Travel Handbook

Leo thought back to the Shadow Realm in his mind, and at the same time didn't doubt Boyd's statement, and even his grandson was pressed, so he couldn't hesitate any longer. So he replied, "I see, and I'll do my best to find what you say." ”

Boyd nodded in satisfaction, then looked back at the wiki.

"I accept that, but what exactly are you looking for?" asked Wiki.

Boyd touched the two metal bracelets that he had prepared earlier, handed them to the two of them, and said, "I'm sorry, I don't know what that thing actually looks like, but if it's nearby, the bracelet will get hot, and I'll give you a hint." ”

Leo nodded, put away the bracelet, and asked, "Then when are we leaving?"

Boyd replied, "The Shadow Realm is vast, and the coordinates of the ruin's entrance are not in our possession, but we have already found a contact, he will appear at the auction in a few days, and you need to meet him." As for the next qiē action, you just need to follow his arrangement. ”

Leo asked again, "How are we going to recognize him?"

"After entering the auction. Bring me the bracelet I gave you, and he will come to you on his own initiative. "But I also need to remind you that this man is hired by us, so we can't fully trust it, and you have the right to make your own choices when you think it is necessary." ”

Vicky suddenly showed a surprised expression, but quickly reacted: "In other words, we have the right to choose to abandon the mission?"

Boyd smiled, "Yes, the number one priority is always to protect yourself. ”

Hear them out. Leo suddenly remembered John, and said, "Can I bring our friends with me?" ”

Boyd pondered for a moment and asked, "Is it credible?"

Leo replied without thinking: "Totally believable." ”

"Yes, but you'd better not tell him everything. Boyd looked at the magic hourglass on the side and continued, "It's almost time now, you should go back, and I'll let Lienit send you out." ”

............

At dusk, an unmarked carriage drove out of Lore and galloped north.

The city of Lore has no walls. But there are still city guards, and according to the regulations, when the sun sets, no pedestrian and vehicle are allowed to pass.

Today, though. All the guards, including the captain, stood inside, not knowing where they had gone, not even the surrounding residents. They all remained at home honestly, and the whole pass was unimpeded, and the carriage that had just passed guò. It's already the first of a handful.

Half an hour later, as night fell, and the carriage had just entered the narrow passage of a valley on the northern outskirts of Lore, two burly masked men in black suddenly appeared in front of the carriage.

The coachman was startled and hurriedly tightened the reins, and the two horses he pulled at the same time whined violently, but the huge inertia of the carriage made it difficult for him to stop quickly.

The distance quickly narrowed, and seeing that the horses were about to hit the two men, the coachman was frightened, and shouted sharply: "Don't die!

However, the two men in black still stood peacefully as if they hadn't noticed anything.

"Get out! don't fuck me!" the coachman scolded again.

As a veteran driver who has worked in the Hawley family for decades, he knew that the place he was going to was unusual, but if he hit and killed two people before he arrived, God knows what would happen. And now, the valley is flanked by rocky cliffs, and it is impossible to pull the carriage out of the way, if there is any mistake by the few young masters in the carriage, his few lives are not enough to compensate.

"Fuck, you are looking for death, but you can't blame me, even if you become an evil spirit, don't come to me!" In order to protect himself, the coachman made a decision.

In the same way, the two horses pulling the cart were not stupid, and of course they would not hit people directly with their heads, and seeing that the distance was already close to a few meters, they suddenly got up and stepped towards the obstacle in front of them with their hard hooves.

The coachman couldn't bear to see the cruel scene, so he couldn't help but close his eyes and muttered silently: "Holy light protection, my Lord bless...... Let justice endure, but justice lasts forever......"

As the most powerful of the main gods, the god of justice, Tyr, has a large number of followers, and they are all over the world, and the coachman is also an ordinary shallow believer, but he has forgotten that in the current situation, the gods he has enshrined may not be of much help.

In the next moment, there was no sound of bones shattering, but two horses let out a mournful cry at the same time.

"Huh?" the coachman opened his eyes and found that the two men in black were still standing in front of him, but the carriage had completely stopped, and the reins on the horse's head had fallen into the hands of one of the men in black.

Another man in black said in a bland and somewhat cold voice: "To participate in the auction, please get off here again and show the invitation." ”

"Do you !! you know who's in the car? Get out of the way!" The coachman suddenly felt that he was being teased, although he was just an ordinary person without any professional rank, he was able to drive for the Hawley family, and his background and eyes were good. But the thrilling situation just now made him almost lose his mind, so he roared angrily.

A cold glint flashed in the black-clothed man's exposed eyes, and then he disappeared, still calmly: "Anyone must enter the manor on foot, or they will leave." ”

Feeling the coercion exerted by the other party, the coachman chuckled in his heart, but he didn't want to lose face in front of his young master, so he was stuck in the distance for a while, and he didn't speak, and he didn't say it.

At this time, an equally calm voice came from the carriage: "Since we are here, of course we must abide by the rules of the master, and we will get off the train." ”

With this voice, the faces of the two men in black changed at the same time, because they found something very unusual.

Both of them were people who danced on the tip of the knife all year round, and their perception was extremely keen, and just now a strange fluctuation hit, and then quickly subsided. They were sure that it was not detection magic, but they couldn't tell what it was.

The two couldn't help but glance at each other, and they both seemed a little vigilant, doing their job, the unknown is the biggest danger.

The car door opened, and a handsome young man wearing a long black trench coat with silver-rimmed eyes jumped out first.

The two men in black could tell from the movements of the young man that the other party did not seem to be very strong, but he was definitely well-trained, and his body contained explosive energy. But the blue collar exposed in the black trench coat is definitely a magic robe, and the glasses are also magic items, which means that the young man in front of him should be a mage.

Immediately after that, three young men and a woman walked down the carriage, all of them were dressed in ordinary clothes, but they were obviously not ordinary people in terms of temperament and demeanor.

The first young man to get off the car was Leo, who walked a few steps to the man in black, took out the invitation letter from his arms, and handed it over: "Please take a look." ”

The man in black took it and opened it, and when he saw the bronzing text on it, his originally stiff voice suddenly softened a little, and said, "You are a VIP, you can walk through the special passage over there, and there will be servants to lead you into the auction venue." Your carriage and coachman will be arranged and you will be picked up on time after the auction. ”

Hearing what the other party said, Leo couldn't help but secretly say that the Holly family was really influential in this area, and he actually received a VIP invitation. He nodded with an unchanged expression and said, "Okay, what about my friends?"

The black-winged man pulling the reins glanced at the side of the carriage and replied, "Of course they can be with you." ”

"Thank you. Leo greeted him politely, and beckoned to some of his companions, and walked into the valley.

After walking dozens of steps, Sanders, who was really uncomfortable, said angrily: "Isn't it just a black organization, it seems to be a big deal, hmph, I don't think they want to mix in Lore City." ”

He already knew the general situation from his father, and he also knew the wiki that he had joined, but his father clearly demanded that everything should be arranged by Leo, so it didn't come out until now.

Leo shook his head and said in a low voice: "Don't underestimate them, those two people just now, one is at least a level 4 assassin, and the other should be level 5, so that people of this level can watch the door, the strength of this organization can be imagined." ”

Sanders couldn't help but be surprised, "Huh, how do you know their rank?"

Vicky, John, and the warrioress Nirei all looked at Leo, apparently curious, as they were pretty sure that Leo wasn't casting any magic.

Leo replied with a smile, "I guess." ”

At the same time, the two men in black were whispering.

"What just happened?"

"I don't know, but I have another feeling of being naked and exposed. ”

"Me too, damn it, the kid with the glasses just did it, right?"

"It should be, that kid is not only a mage, but also has received combat training, and his level is at least level 2 or above, maybe he has some special talent. ”

"Who is he?"

"I don't know, but it's an invitation from the Holly family, and it seems that the Holly family is going to have a big name in this generation. (To be continued......)
