Chapter 30 Tracking
According to the method I explained in advance, all the NPC guards in Reykjavik were mobilized together after the guild war mode was started, so that no NPC would encounter me halfway, and the players all knew that this was a false declaration of war. So there is no possibility of friction with me.
After swaggering into Reykjavik, I met the members of the three land managers' guilds who came to greet me. Although I didn't ask them what their duties were in this guild, I thought they could decide to declare war. There is no need to say hello to others, so among the three people here there must be at least one president and one vice president. If so, the system will not pass.
After the three people saw me, they started to follow me, and their destination was naturally Bing Fist's house. Because Reykjavik has entered a state of war, the invincibility effect of private residences has been lifted. Private residences without invincibility attributes are not even as defensive as those functional buildings in the city. After all, private residences are private houses. , if it were not for the system to protect personal security and set up the invincibility effect, it would be absolutely impossible for them to be as strong as military facilities.
In front of me, the small villa without protection was no better than a house made of cardboard. After walking to the door, I grabbed the door handle and twisted it slightly. With a click, the door opened directly. This is of course not because Bingquan forgot to lock the door, but because I directly pulled the door handle from the door together with the lock cylinder inside.
Throwing away the deformed door lock and pushing the door open, the room seemed to be in a mess, with many things scattered on the ground. It was obviously caused by someone leaving in a hurry.
"Oops, it seems that Ice Fist guy ran away." A player from the Land Manager's Guild said.
"As long as you come in, there is no problem of running away. What we want is a clue not to catch the Bing Fist guy. If he runs away, he will run away."
"But if he ran away like this, what clues would be left?"
"There are many clues, it depends on whether you are willing to look for them or not." I said and snapped my fingers, and the Gate of the Earth appeared on the road outside. Then Scott and the others ran out, and then entered the house one after another and began to search the room. every corner. Moreover, their search method is quite exaggerated. As soon as they see any large items, they are moved directly outside. Then there are my other familiars and Qilin warriors outside who are responsible for dismantling large furniture and other items into pieces to check if there is anything hidden inside. s things.
The players here were quite surprised by our crusher-like search method, but I didn't care about their feelings and continued to command the familiars and other summoned creatures to cooperate with each other to dismantle things.
Soon all the movable things in the room were cleared to the street outside, and there were so many summoned creatures. Almost all of these things turned into piles of fragments, and it was impossible to hide anything anymore.
Looking at the empty room. The three players from the Land Manager's Guild who followed me into the room all frowned. Apparently they were wrong in our judgment and this was not the magical pastry chef's hideout.
"It seems we have found the wrong place." One of the guys couldn't help but say it.
The two people next to me wanted to agree, but I was the first to say, "Looking for clues requires patience. You can't find clues like this."
As I was talking, I suddenly heard a bang from the wall next to me. The three people turned their heads and saw a fist sticking out from the wall next to them, and then the fist was retracted. And soon there was another hole in the wall next to it. In fact, this was just the beginning, as almost all the surrounding walls received similar treatment. There were people digging holes everywhere, and soon the walls inside the house had become riddled with holes.
"Master. There is something discovered here." The three people over there were about to ask me if this would collapse the house, but they suddenly heard shouts.
I ran over as soon as I heard the sound, and then I saw two ring knights expanding a hole. Behind the hole was a vertical passage. As the ring knights demolished it, the surrounding obstructing walls were gradually removed, and soon this passage was completely exposed.
The passage is very narrow and feels like a chimney. There is a metal ladder that goes up and down vertically, but ours is not the entrance to the ladder. The top of the escalator is on the second floor, and the vertical shaft on the first floor is surrounded by several rooms. The depth of the house is used to hide the depth of this passage, allowing people to ignore the space occupied by this passage. space. However, my summoned creatures were not specifically looking for any loopholes. They were just digging holes everywhere. Faced with this completely unreasonable search method, even the best disguise was useless.
"Mira." When I saw the passage being opened, I immediately turned around and shouted.
In her human form, Mira quickly stepped into the passage without touching the ladder, and landed directly at the bottom of the well. With a thud, he landed easily, and judging from the impact and the interval between the sounds, the depth of this vertical shaft should not be very deep, at most only one or two floors high.
"Master, you can come down now."
After hearing Mira's voice, I took a step in, followed by my other magic pets. The three players here all came down behind my magic pets.
There is no passage at the bottom of this vertical shaft. It is directly a room, and the room is quite empty. There are only a few pieces of furniture in total, and you can see them all at a glance. However, on the central floor of this room was something they had not expected at all.
"Teleportation array?"
Seeing the huge magic circle on the ground, the three managers' guild players present were all stunned. Teleportation arrays are not uncommon at all. Every city will have one or two. Even cities like Essinger with many teleportation arrays are not uncommon. However, even if there can be many teleportation arrays in a city, those teleportation arrays all belong to the city managers. There are teleportation arrays that they do not know exist in their own cities. How can this not be allowed to the three people present? be surprised?
The three people came down relatively late. So what they saw when they came over was that several of my demon pets had gathered around the teleportation array, and it seemed that they were busy with something, but they couldn't understand it.
Although I didn’t know what my magic pet was doing, I seemed to be idle nearby, so the three of them came over decisively and planned to ask what we were doing. However, before they could ask, they saw Ling squatting next to the magic circle. He stood up and said to me: "Master, the cracking of the teleportation array has been completed. Do you want to start it now?"
I nodded and said, "Call everyone up there, and we're going to teleport."
"That... President Ziri? What does this mean? Teleportation? Where to teleport to?"
"I don't know." I replied directly: "The teleportation array was used by someone a few minutes ago. Obviously the ice fist was here before. He escaped after discovering that the invincible protection was cancelled. If the teleportation array does not If you make any adjustments, the teleportation array will automatically remember the teleportation coordinates of the previous target, and the next teleportation will be automatically teleported to that coordinate. No other mage is found here, so no one can help him after Ice Fist teleports away. Modify the coordinates. So now we just need to restart the teleportation array, and it will automatically send us to where Ice Fist goes."
"That's it." The three people said so. My heart was in turmoil. They had never even heard of teleportation array cracking before. And I actually saw it today. The most important thing is that the speed at which we have to crack is really scary. They were indeed the last to come down, but the problem is that they didn't delay for long in total. At most, they came down more than a minute later than me. But in just over a minute, we actually completed the cracking of the teleportation array. , which means. If anyone wants to use the teleportation array to run away from us in the future, it will basically be like a dream.
I didn't care about those three guys. Anyway, they just follow the soy sauce. After taking back all the summoned creatures, only Ling Cao was left to operate the teleportation array. After the teleportation array was activated, I also took Ling away. Then he quickly entered the teleportation array. The three people over there saw me entering the teleportation array and hurriedly jumped in. The teleportation array flashed immediately after we entered, and the next second we appeared in a large jungle.
"This is……?"
Looking at the scene in front of us, the four of us were a little confused, because we all thought that this place would be a teleportation array in a certain city, but we didn't expect that it would be in the wild, and it was actually a teleportation point that no one had discovered.
Under our feet is a teleportation array with a diameter of only three meters. Among the teleportation arrays, this is considered a small teleportation array. The array disk is not built on the ground, but is located in the trunk of a big tree. Half of the teleportation array is wrapped in tree trunks, forming a cave-like existence, but it is quite shallow. Only half of the teleportation array is enclosed, while the other half is directly exposed to the outside.
The edge of the teleportation array extends beyond the tree trunk, and is at least one meter above the ground. We didn't realize it when we were standing on the teleportation array, but when we jumped down and landed on the ground, we looked back and realized that the teleportation array didn't seem to be what it was originally. Judging from the situation at the scene, this should be a war teleportation array, which is the kind of temporary teleportation array that is carried with the army. This kind of teleportation array has no foundation, and the magic lines and so on are directly integrated into the array. In this way, the entire teleportation array can be turned into a discus-like thing and taken away. When you need to use it, just put it on the ground, and then Just do some spatial calibration and then start it.
Now looking at it from the side, it can be determined that this teleportation array is not always here. The big tree should have been growing normally, but then the teleportation array somehow flew over from somewhere else and embedded itself in the trunk, like a high-speed rotating round grinding wheel. She pointed at a big tree, and the grinding wheel would be embedded in the trunk as long as the speed was fast enough. This teleportation array was obviously embedded in this way, otherwise it would be impossible to explain why this teleportation array was suspended more than one meter high, instead of being built on the ground. superior. As for the gap in the trunk, this is actually better explained. During the transmission process, the teleportation array is actually performing space exchange, that is, the space on the starting teleportation array is exchanged with the space on the target teleportation array. If there is a person standing with one foot inside the teleportation array and one foot outside the teleportation array during the teleportation process, then after the teleportation array is activated, if the person's own protective energy does not exceed the transmission energy of the teleportation array, then he will It was torn apart by the teleportation energy, and then half of the body was teleported away, leaving the remaining half outside the teleportation array.
This teleportation array is embedded in the trunk, which means that part of the trunk actually enters the transmission range of the teleportation array. Therefore, when the teleportation array is activated, the part of the trunk that enters the transmission range disappears directly.
Although we don't know how this teleportation array is embedded in the tree trunk, this is not what we care about. What we need to do now is to find Bing Fist or the pastry chef as soon as possible. However, judging from the characteristics of this teleportation array, this place is probably the pastry chef's real hiding place, or the place where Ice Fist imprisoned the pastry chef.
In fact, we have thought about this possibility before. Although the magic pastry chef may be an NPC or a player, since Bingquan would pretend to be a magic pastry chef before, it means that he thinks the magic pastry chef is a player and is more credible. But why does he think so? The best explanation is that the Magic Pastry Chef is really just a player.
So, if the magic dessert chef is a player, is it possible that he doesn’t know that the magic desserts he makes are very valuable? This possibility does exist, but it is very slim, so we assume that the other party actually knows that his magic dessert is valuable. Then the problem arises. Since the magic dessert chef knows that his magic desserts are very valuable and of huge value, why would he hand over all his magic desserts to Bing Fist for sale? The information previously investigated by Scott and the others showed that the money Bingquan earned from magic desserts was terrifying. This showed that he did not give all the profits to the magic dessert chef, but took a large part of it himself, otherwise he would not be able to So willing to spend money.
If Ice Boxing has gained a lot of benefits, it means that the profits of the Magic Pastry Chef have been diluted a lot, so why doesn’t the Magic Pastry Chef find someone else to act as an agent? At least others won't be as greedy as Bing Quan.
If the magic dessert chef is a fool, then this is understandable, but if he can make magic desserts, he obviously does not seem to be a person with intellectual problems. Then, there is only one most likely explanation, and that is that the other party does not want to change agents, but is unable to change agents, or that he is simply controlled by Bing Fist. This is the most reasonable explanation for Bingquan being able to impersonate the magic pastry chef. Otherwise, it would be difficult to imagine that the magic pastry chef would turn around and give away all his reputation, status, identity, money, and a series of other benefits to others. Even being stupid has a limit, right?
With the above speculations, we are now more confident in finding the magic pastry chef, because if the magic pastry chef is really under control, then the most likely thing Bingquan will do when he finds out that the incident has been exposed is to run to the magic pastry chef. Move the other party with you wherever you are. Of course, considering that Bing Fist's intelligence doesn't seem to be very good, he may even think that we won't find him through the teleportation array. Maybe he just came to this place where the magic dessert chef is imprisoned to temporarily avoid the limelight. If that's the case, our next job will be simpler. (To be continued)rq
