Like the battlefield not far away, the ground in the darkness was covered with debris, whether it was there or brought in by outsiders like them.

It was clearly part of an underground complex, perhaps it was made of beautiful marble, with a sleek exterior that could be recognizable, and perhaps some beautiful patterns, such as oil paintings and delicate metal torches, but now, it didn't matter how it used to be to Gehr, it was just a space dark enough to hide his figure.

Gehr walked quietly and quickly in the darkness, nimbly avoiding one obstacle after another, like a bat dancing nimbly in the dark, while his body was surrounded by a slight flow of wind, and it was the operation of this energy particle that allowed him to block out any movements that might cause an external reaction, allowing him to pass through one gargoyle warrior after another without attracting any attention.

These gargoyets are supposed to be based on sound perception or energy perception, and as for vision, Gehr is not sure, but it is certain that they do not possess the skill of dim vision. In front of him who used the Wind Concealment Technique, as long as he didn't directly bump into them, even if he walked past them, there would be no problem.

So getting through these gargoyle arrays wasn't a problem for Gehr, otherwise Luke wouldn't have hired him over, but the gargoyles were just a minor nuisance, and the real trouble was yet to come.

Pie-in-the-sky is just a beautiful fantasy, and in reality it is more cold and cruel. 50 standard spars. This is not a small amount, and it can be regarded as a life purchase for an apprentice. If you want to get this commission, then you must have the consciousness that you may die.

At the time of accepting this task. Gehr knew very well that Luke wasn't sending him money to travel.

Of course, Gehr also has his own judging criteria, and if he really dies, he will naturally not rush forward stupidly. What's more, he's just an apprentice, but he's actually a member of a group of sworn enemies of wizards.

From the very beginning, Gehr never considered himself a wizard's apprentice, even after he came to the world of Veris in the strict sense of the word. Spending most of his time on the wizard's side had been in this world, and on the patron's side, he had actually only spent more than half a month on the float, but he never thought he should be a wizard now.

Gehr thought about this idea and finally came up with an answer, which may be due to a preconceived system of acquired power, but more often than not, it is a sense of identity.

The Sorcerer and the Patron are the two top powers in the world of Veris as Gehr now knows. But compared to the native-born wizard community, the patronage community formed by exiles from Kunak made Gell feel closer.

Maybe it's because of the body that occupies it. Gehr already regards Konatas as his second homeland, so he has a better affection for those who can be said to be from the same origin, and his psychological inclination is greater, if he has a choice. Naturally, he would choose the side of his patron.

The gargoyle warriors passing in front of him began to become scarce, and Gehr estimated that the distance he had traveled was about the same, and his destination was in front of him.

Unlike the Gargoyle warriors' footsteps, the sound came from the darkness ahead. The footsteps were heavier, and each time they landed, the ground trembled slightly. The dull sound could be heard far away.

Gehr paused and listened quietly. It's the sound of metal and stones crashing. But it is not bulky, which means that the owner of the sound not only has great power, but also does not lag behind in terms of flexibility.

Continuing to grope his way forward with the sound, Gehr soon saw a faint light coming from the front, illuminating a small area, just in time for two huge black shadows that were constantly moving.

It's a brass golem.

Compared to the height of the gargoyle warriors, the two brass golems are about half the height, and the size and thickness of their bodies are also much larger, their brass-colored bodies are covered with all kinds of runes, like bright protective colors, and the sound of thunder coming from the pace of progress gives people a very difficult first feeling to deal with.

In the center of the light source, Gell saw what Luke was talking about—a space recessed in the walls, and now the two brass golems were walking back and forth around an area outside the room's doorway, seemingly patrolling.

Gehr adjusted his position and tentatively moved forward for some distance, and when he noticed that the brass golem did not notice him, he continued to move forward. Several times in a row, as he approached the range of the light source, suddenly, a brass golem close to him seemed to sense something, and suddenly stopped, its red eyes scanning the surroundings with the rotation of its head.

Taking a cautious step back, Gehr leaned down and carefully observed the movement of the brass golem to determine his next move.

Fortunately, the brass golem was only vigilant for a while, probably thinking that nothing had been discovered, and quickly resumed its previous patrol method.

Three meters.

This is the closest distance that Gehr has tested to be able to get close to brass golems without alarming them.

Gehr carefully moved around the brass golem along the distance, adjusting his angle to observe the room.

It was a small room, roughly square, with a width of about two meters at the opening, and with the brass golem's patrol, it was impossible not to alarm the two big guys when they entered.

Looking over from Gehr's side, one can see a gray circular altar in the room, and on the altar floats a pale golden crystal rune, which should be the one Luke said. This rune is circular as a whole, with four patterns of sun, moon and star rings hanging on the four sides of the top, bottom, left and right, respectively, surrounding the eye image in the middle that looks like a three-dimensional eye.

The light came from this rune.

Gehr estimated the distance between Xia and the rune, about less than twenty meters, and it was not difficult for him to shoot with the crossbow he was carrying, but after observing it, his heart faintly told him that this was not a good idea, so after thinking about it, he still did not shoot rashly and continued to observe.

It took him less than five minutes to sneak here from Luke, but it took him fifteen minutes to observe the situation around the altar room and the patrol patterns of the two brass golems.

With only a third of the time Luke had said he would retreat, Gell finally moved.

Moving to the edge of the wall outside the brass golem's sensing range, Gehr touched the wall, then gently pressed his hands on the overall smooth wall, and silently recited a few phrases in his mouth.

Wind energy particles swirled gently around his hand, and the resulting fluctuations were masked by the concealment spell he had blessed his body, without attracting the attention of the brass golem.

A suction force suddenly generated from the contact between his hands and the wall, so that he didn't have much effort to grab the wall with both hands and bring his body into the air, and then his feet also stepped on the wall, which also produced suction, so that his body was firmly attached to the wall, and soon climbed along the wall to the top, silently sticking to the ceiling, like an agile gecko.

It's not a spell, it's just a simple use of energy particles. Through the simple manipulation of wind energy particles, all the air in the gap between the contact position between the hand and the wall is drained, and a simple vacuum environment is artificially formed, and a strong suction force is naturally generated by using the pressure outside, and Gehr still has this kind of adsorption device in the standard equipment that he had when he was a soldier in the last days, and now he has the ability to manipulate energy particles, but it can also be simply simulated.

Gehr began to move around the ceiling, but soon stopped, as he was about to enter the brass golem's alert range.

The ceiling was more than five meters from the ground, and crawling along the ceiling could not completely avoid the brass golem's range of perception, but Gehr was not worried about it, he had prepared before he acted.

There are thirty seconds left, and there will be a gap of ten seconds.

Based on the pattern of movement of the two golems obtained from previous observations, Gehr determined that a patrol gap would create a near-blind spot every once in a while, and this was his chance.

While Gehr waited, the two brass golems were still patrolling unhurriedly according to the established procedures. They don't walk very fast, stopping and looking around every three steps, carrying out their master's orders precisely - though their master now does not know whether they are dead or alive.

The two brass golems patrol in the same direction, but in opposite directions, causing them to cross paths every once in a while, which is exactly the opportunity that Gehr was waiting for.

As if manipulating the Golem's actions, the moment the countdown in Gehr's mind was completed, the two brass golems passed by, their backs to each other, heading in their respective directions.

Now, start counting down!

Gell used his hands and feet together, extremely fast and extremely quiet, and began a somewhat strange charge along the ceiling.

10、9...... 3、2、1。

At the moment of countdown to zero, Gehr managed to reach his destination, the ceiling next to the room, and the two brass golems just turned around, but as Gehr expected, he was not found.

Very good.

Gell praised himself for a moment, and looked at the altar room again, exactly as he had observed outside, without any surprises, and without further delay, he prepared to climb straight down the ceiling into the room, and then leap down to finish the task.

But the moment he climbed down the ceiling into the altar room, an inexplicable sense of danger suddenly came to his heart.

Gehr immediately looked in the direction where the sense of danger was generated, and suddenly an eye that was looking at him suddenly jumped into his eyes, it was the rune in the shape of an eye floating on the altar!(To be continued......
