Seeing Alyssa start to use the Wind Ears, Alan immediately fell silent, and even breathed as lightly as possible.

"Oh, it's already ...... Have you run so far?" said Alyssa after a moment's time.

"Is it far from here?" asked Allen.

"Hmm...... It's not very far, but if we really want to chase it deliberately, it will delay our trip today......" Alyssa frowned slightly, thought for a moment and said, "But it's not a big problem, I have a countermeasure......"

"What?"

"He was now on the road at Gate Six, but the road was the same as the roads that came nearby, not straight, but inclined to the left, and eventually converged in the same spot in front of the swamp...... That's the intersection that must be taken from the left side of the swamp. So I suggest we move quickly, get there before him, and wait for him there. I'll keep track of him, and don't even think about running away as soon as he shows up. ”

"However, he can use Starlight, which should be a lot faster than us......" Alan said.

"Why, after staying in that time barrier for a long time, has your mind started to slow down?" Alyssa said with a smile, "Starlight is convenient, but it's not omnipotent...... No one has ever been to that swamp, and if you just follow the outline of the map and imagine the scene around it, you may be sent to some strange place and never come back......

"Ah, ......yes too," Alan smiled sheepishly and said, "Without further ado, let's go now!"

"Hmm!"

The two quickly sorted out their belongings, and after extinguishing the campfire, they were back on their way.

Due to the need to detect Ficheno's movements, Alyssa simply used the Wind Ears the whole time, and even listened to the wind and grass around them, so this time their speed could be increased without any scruples.

However, to Alyssa's surprise, things didn't go her way......

"This guy ......" Alyssa suddenly stopped after tracking for a while, and said, "This mode of action ......"

"What's wrong?" asked Allen.

"It seems that he is still good at playing tricks...... "Alyssa listened carefully again, and said, "this mode of action of teleportation from one place to another is indeed starlight...... Although the distance of each move is not long, it is frequent...... Probably aware that we were going to track him, he was constantly using the starlight to move as far as he could see......"

"If that's the case......" Alan frowned as well.

"Hmm...... It's mana-intensive, but he'll get to the edge of the swamp faster than we do. ”

"What to do...... If the Wand of Stealing falls into the hands of someone else, or let him know that its previous owner was the long-missing Negris Winslow, he will bite back then......" Alan couldn't help but be a little worried, "With his character, we might ...... risk being recognized by the security department to report it."

"Yes...... It's a bit tricky...... "Alyssa said, "but now we're going to have to go as fast as we can...... Fortunately, he had just been injured, and he had to rest a little every distance he moved...... Hope to catch up with him!"

After a brief discussion, the two of them set off again.

Only this time they were almost on the verge of running...... In order to be as fast as possible, and to save physical strength and magic power, Alyssa did not dare to use the Ears of the Wind so unscrupulously.

In this way, I don't know how long I ran, when Alyssa slowed down again to detect Ficeno's location, she found that they were only a few hundred meters away from the swamp. It's just that the view is blocked by the dense water vapor and dense bushes in the vicinity.

I had never exercised so vigorously that I could exhaust these two honor students enough.

"Tsk......" Alyssa opened her mouth after a short break, "Still a step behind him...... He's here now. He didn't dare to use magic rashly, but if he kept moving at this pace, we would only be thrown farther and farther away, especially after moving away from this swamp......"

What can I do...... Do you want to catch up......

After learning the news, Alan also had no idea.

If they chose to catch up, it would be almost impossible for them to join Cynthia and Frey again, and Fedeno would be able to be dragged down if they had enough food, but if they didn't, the Wand of Stealing would fall into Ficeno's hands completely, which could cause them big trouble......

What a dilemma......

It's like two glasses of wine, both of which are highly poisonous, and you are forced to choose one of them......

"What to do...... What to do......" Alan was anxious, but he couldn't think of any other way.

But at this moment, Alyssa suddenly spoke again: "Wait...... There are other people on the edge of the swamp......"

"Who?"

"In ...... Waiting for you ......" Alyssa seemed to hear something.

"Waiting for me?" Alan felt like he saw hope when he heard this, and quickly asked, "Are Cynthia and Frey already here?"

But Alyssa looked at him a little hesitantly, shook her head again, and said, "No......"

"Then ......" Allen's excitement was immediately extinguished, and he asked again with a little nervousness, "Is it ...... The mysterious man who hid around here in the first place?"

"It's not ......," Alyssa shook her head again.

"Who's that?" Alan was completely confused, "friend or foe, is it dangerous?"

"This ...... I don't know......" Alyssa didn't know what she was thinking, she looked a little embarrassed, and she couldn't say anything.

After looking down and thinking for a moment, Alyssa suddenly spoke again, "I suggest we go around the right side of the swamp now. It may take a little more time, but with Frey's abilities, it should be easy to find us. ”

"From the right?" Alan was momentarily stunned, "wait...... It's not like you haven't looked at the map carefully, this swamp is not too big, but it spreads far to the right, if you go from that side, ......"

"Yes. Alyssa interrupted, "As things stand, we'd better choose to detour from the right. ”

Alan looked at her with a puzzled expression, wondering why she insisted on changing the plan they had made all along.

"Who is the man waiting for me on the edge of the swamp?" asked Alan after a moment of silence, "what did you hear?"

Although Alyssa was reluctant to say it, he still vaguely sensed that the reason why her attitude suddenly changed must be related to this person.

"You...... I won't think of it......" Alyssa whispered, "at least not yet...... If you believe me, listen to me, and come with me around from the right......"

Alan was even more curious when he heard this...... How special is this person's identity that can make Alyssa avoid it again and again?

"I believe in you, always. Alan hesitated and said, "But now, I just want to know, who is the person who is waiting for me?"

Maybe it's curiosity, maybe it's just a whim, and Alan is rarely a little stubborn.

Hearing Alan's answer and looking into his eyes again, Alyssa knew that she had to say the answer to this question......

"It's Riel. Alyssa sighed, lowered her head and whispered, "It's the person we know best...... Rare Connor. ”
