Chapter 2017 How Many People Can Your Bodyguard Protect?
There was black ash in the soil, the ashes of a certain kind of plant that was pulverized and burnt. Although there were very few parts, it was even more difficult to distinguish when mixed in the soil, but he still managed to find this trace based on his experience.
"Trees?" Richard looked at the results of Oro's analysis, and asked in amazement. If some bones, broken clothes and other things were dug out here, it would be easy to understand, and it could be regarded as a burial. Earth, but something like a tree is not right, right?
"It may be something else... Unfortunately, the prophecy detection with that hair can only find here." Oro said with some regret, put away the black ash, and if you continue to look through it, it may be You can also turn over new black ash, but this kind of thing is enough.
A few additional leads can be identified to allow for follow-up investigations.
The tree or other plants hidden in the ground can only be figured out after some new clues are investigated. At least now there is a new direction of investigation.
"That human being is the one who has been threatening your existence. He is quite courageous. He dared to come out at this time." In the distance, an abyss messenger stared at Oro who left, with a faint killing intent in his eyes. From these human betrayers and abyss lurkers, I learned a lot of information about the continent, including the man with the moustache that I now know.
If there is no other party, the cultivation speed of the tree of reincarnation will be greatly increased, instead of the current number that has barely reached the standard, and is preparing to send a powerful existence directly, and at this time the other party has already investigated Some clues belonging to the tree of reincarnation.
Human traitors often suffer greatly, so they are very careful and discover the traces of Oro in advance.
"Master Messenger, do you want to join forces to kill him?"
"Who are you talking to! Are you ordering me again??" The abyss messenger showed a little anger, dealing with such a human being who is at most a high-level existence, who do you look down on, even if the bodyguard is stronger, but He didn't feel much threat from the opponent either!
"No... I'm very sorry, I just want to solve this trouble more safely. You must know that we have taken actions against him before." The fallen man explained conscientiously.
The Abyss Messenger snorted coldly, staring at Oro and his party: "Keep an eye on them!"
Oro used to hide very deeply, and it was not easy to solve, but this time he ran out rarely, so he must not let the other party go. Considering that the other party has shown amazing survival ability before, he is really ready to call someone. Since If you want to kill this guy, you have to do it more simply, and at the same time search for things like ambushes nearby.
After all, Oro's behavior does not rule out the possibility of fishing.
...
"Get rid of one person? This guy? Well, it's true that you can't take it lightly." After knowing who the target is to be solved, the remaining abyss messengers also have ideas. After eliminating this guy, they are in the mainland The action here will be smoother. Oro's main task is to find out about the hidden power of the abyss on the mainland.
With the presence of the opponent, some of their actions will appear passive. The new tree of reincarnation is ready, and the number is larger than the budget, so this time they can directly bring in a lot of high-end combat power, although they belong to the Abyss City Lord. There won't be so many levels of combat power, but they have special combat power support.
Now that the reincarnation ceremony is going on, they have satisfied their curiosity, so they don’t have to stare at things like the reincarnation tree. As for whether the information will be leaked after killing Oro, it depends on the situation. It is enough not to give the other party the opportunity to leak information. The abyss messengers who come to the mainland are all specific existences, and they have the corresponding ability to block some information.
"Then get ready to act. After we get rid of him, our future arrangements will be much more relaxed. At least for the time being, we don't have to worry about the investigation team's interference with us."
When these abyss messengers discussed a simple plan to deal with Auror and found Auror again, they were very cautious. They actually searched the area around Auror. And perception, so it is easy to find some hidden ambushes.
"Hehehe, it really is a bait." An abyss messenger looked at the team that had been exposed to his vision. The other party was a member of the Holy Church, with unified high-level combat power, well-equipped, guns and weapons, and a fate demon. Soldiers and the like, all the weapons that belong to the mainland are available, and it can be said that they are armed to the teeth.
Beyond this level of ambushes, there is a hidden high-end force, the saintess. There is more than one such combination, and some of them can get the information right, and they are all members of the investigation team.
"To get rid of them?"
"These people are very sensitive, and it is easy to expose our purpose if we act rashly, so we don't need to deal with them." The abyssal creature who found the ambushes sneered. It will be too long, but it won't take long to solve Oro.
They also have a lot of information about Auror. Auror has a special "artifact" that was used to fight against the abyss disaster back then. level, but that thing will not be restricted by the user, it is high-level if it is brought by an individual.
Think about it, in a battlefield, a group of ice-type spellcasters with extremely cold power can go forward and output one after another. It is also a terrible combination. It works great.
It's just that no matter how easy it is to use, it is only a high-level strength. Even if Oro's current strength has improved, and he can become even stronger when using the Extreme Cold Embrace, that kind of thing is a backward product after all.
Another troublesome thing is the bodyguard next to the other party. The other party has a super strong defense. It is said that even the witch cannot break the defense of the other party. When Oro was ambushed, Oro was seriously injured, and this bodyguard named Richard Unexpectedly, he didn't suffer much damage, he was simply a freak among human beings.
Of course, there are so many human beings, it is normal for some special species to appear occasionally, just like the abyssal creatures in the abyss, there will occasionally be some existences with extreme attributes.
Although the abyss creature that was able to withstand the flames of the Lord of the Volcano could not completely absorb that flame, the other party, with its unique talent, forcibly resisted the damage caused by that flame. This is a special case.
A human with broken defense but insufficient offensive ability can easily be lured away. Another human named Virgil also has intelligence in the abyss. The opponent's attack method is special. According to the analysis of some experts, his special attack is mainly The knife was brought, if the knife can be restrained during the battle, the opponent is just a stronger professional.
As for the spellcasters in the team, one of them is garbage, not worth mentioning.
"Then, let's do it."
"Do it!"
The invisible fluctuations swept across, and the members of the investigation team accompanying Oro did not notice the changes in the surrounding environment. This is not a mental influence, but directly affects the environment!
"Wait, something is wrong." Richard stared cautiously around: "I think we should go back."
"This... I have found more and more clues, why not go back now?" The spellcaster in the team couldn't help asking, he was amazed at Auror's investigation ability, with a few clues, plus World Defense Council For the support over there, they quickly found additional traces from the black ash, and the support from the World Defense Council was also great.
After all, there is a dragon who is good at prophecy, Gladys, the second elder of the Dragon Clan. The other party relied on prophecy to forcibly pull out subtle clues from the black ash that should have been impossible to find, although there are not many. , but it is enough for Oro, although Oro doesn't like to cheat with divination when investigating something.
Using prophecy for many things is like looking at the answer, which is meaningless, but this kind of matter involves the entire continent, and he will not give up the power of prophecy for the so-called persistence and rejection. To put it bluntly, if Continental has serious problems because of his willfulness in this regard.
He can't bear this responsibility, and he doesn't want to take such a responsibility.
The spellcaster felt that the investigation had reached this point. If he retreated now, many clues would be missed. After all, many clues are time-sensitive, and after time passes, they may be garbage without any information.
"Hmph! I said retreat! Are you doubting my judgment!" Richard, the bodyguard, stared at the caster, and the look in his eyes made the caster feel heavy pressure.
"No, I just think..."
"I don't think so!" Richard said in a low voice. Ever since Oro encountered an ambush and almost died last time, he blamed himself very much for this matter. If he is a normal fighter, then forget it. At that time, he had tried his best, but he was not a professional fighter, but a bodyguard similar to a guardian knight. If the protected person almost died, it was his dereliction of duty.
So after Oro recovered, he took advantage of his spare time to carry out rather harsh training. Regarding the training of catching dangerous smells, this kind of training is very dangerous. There is a high probability of death, let alone ordinary people.
People in his family have also advised him about this kind of training, but Richard still carried out the training here...
"It felt good, but it was too late."
The sudden voice made Richard's face darken. Something really happened. His training has not been completed. To put it bluntly, capturing dangerous smells is a special kind of sixth sense training, which cannot be mastered in a short period of time. a force.
There were ripples in the air, and an abyss messenger looked at Richard with interest, with a bit of wonder in his eyes. They had already reduced the sense of existence to the limit, but this human being still felt abnormal and maintained his protection. Posture can protect Oro from all aspects, and just observing secretly gives them a feeling of being helpless.
So they showed their traces directly. There are a total of four abyss messengers who came here this time, and the rest know about it, but they are in charge of the Reincarnation Tree.
"Abyss Lurker?" The spellcaster next to Oro immediately raised his hand and rubbed out a spell, but before the spell was formed, dense bloodstains appeared on his body, the unformed magic was completely out of control, and the magic power flowed backwards , ripping out his vital organs from inside his body.
This kind of death is quite miserable. Under the deliberate control of the abyss messenger, the torn organs of the caster are very important and fatal, but they are not fatal immediately, otherwise his brain could be destroyed in an instant just now, and now the caster The victim can only scream here, with blood and internal organs spraying from his mouth.
The eyes were twisted into pieces by the magic power of the countercurrent, and the skin and muscles were torn. As he struggled, the bones also emerged from under the muscles. In this struggle, a skeleton slowly squeezed out from the broken flesh and blood. come out...
"..." Oro put away the pipe with a heavy expression on his face. At this moment, he knew that nothing he could do could save him. Even if he moved, he would fall into the trap of these abyssal creatures. In the trap, they are definitely not abyss lurkers, they are waiting for Oro and the bodyguards to show their flaws.
As long as one of them makes a change and breaks Richard's current state of protection for him, then at that moment, he will suffer a devastating blow, from one death to two deaths.
"The means of the abyss are really rich... No, it should be said that it is the legacy of Chromia, the mother of evil gods?" Oro put on a normal cigarette for himself, lit it, and after taking a puff, the cigarette was blown away by him It fell on the minced meat that was still twitching and completely squeezed out the bones.
The caster's body burns with a pale blue flame.
"It's really clever, just by investigating such a little information, you can confirm these things."
"No, it's just a bold guess. The mother of the evil god used a unique method to smuggle to the mainland, so I made a bold association."
"Then this association is really bold, but delaying time is meaningless." An abyss messenger said, he folded his arms and looked at a watch on his wrist: "We can chat for at least three hours now, I'm not in a hurry, but can your bodyguard last that long?"
Richard maintains a guarding state with no dead ends, but this state is not exhausted. Even if his physical strength can last, his energy can't. The four abyssal city masters' fighting power has brought him great pressure.
"Or is it your teammate you count on? How many people can your bodyguard protect?"
Oro glanced at Virgil who was not far away, and sighed a little melancholy: "Then this is really a lore... After so many days, it's really bad luck for me to come out like this officially."
