The dazzling light quietly sheds light on this vast area, as if it warms the whole world.

　　 However, even the dazzling sunlight cannot illuminate all the darkness in the world.

　　Outside the city of Gloria, in the Altai Mountains, a branch of the Dirros Mountains, tall trees are dense and prosperous, standing among the mountains like a giant sky-high.

　　 At the time just after the cold wave, these flowers and trees all over the mountains have not yet returned to their former vitality, with a hint of weakness.

　　 The tall trees are a little bare, with only sparse leaves dotted on them.

　　 But this is the case. The dense trees are like a continuous curtain blocking the light from the sky, casting a shade and quiet in the mountains.

　　Among the mountains, only the chirping of birds and beasts, the soft moan of leaves blowing in the wind, and the sweet sound of springs hitting rocks.

　　 Everything is so peaceful, everything is so peaceful, here it seems that time has become lighter.

　　 However, among the vast mountains, some unexpected guests arrived.

　　 On the mountain trail, two dim figures appeared.

　　 Mild light spilled from among the sparse branches and leaves, and printed as dazzling spots on the ground.

Many of these light spots were scattered on the faces of the two of them, illuminating their figures. One of them was wearing a golden mask, and the clothes on his body were already covered with mottled dust, but they did not damage the exuberant aura of the other person; the other had a gloomy complexion. , With a frightening atmosphere of the forest.

　　 It is the masked man and Isaac who escaped from the Imperial Criminal Department.

　　 Crackling...

　　 The precious leather boots have become torn in the days of rushing and fleeing, and they are in contact with the dense layers of fallen leaves on the ground, making a popping sound.

　　 However, the two of them didn't seem to care about this at all, but each walked in silence, with a weak footsteps, but firm.

　　 If someone can mark the route they have traveled on the map, then he will find out.

　　 Although these two people are constantly going around in circles, they are evading possible enemies. But their destination is only one.

　　 The northern main city of the empire, Gloria City.

　　 The two spent a huge price, and they carried the danger enough to make them fall into the abyss. After many days of running and fleeing, they finally approached their destination.

　　 At this time, looking from the top to the bottom, the two seemed to have given up all the idea of ​​hiding their tracks, and rushed towards the city of Gloria like a straight line.

　　 And their destination is not far away.

　　 Isaac and the masked man looked at the white light shining from the trees surrounding the mountains, and they couldn't help but express their joy and speed up a bit.

　　 They have reached the foot of the mountain, and they have seen the light outside the forest. They will only be able to walk out of the dark mountain range and see the familiar vast plain in a while.

　　 By that time, returning to Gloria City would only take more than a day.

　　Although the two have no means of transportation, all kinds of fragmentary magic tools and alchemy props have been exhausted in the previous escape.

　　 However, the two of them are not masters who can't stand the suffering.

　　 As a silver-tier spellcaster, even if it is a law system that specializes in the physical body, their physical body has been nourished and strengthened by magic, which is comparable to ordinary black iron-tier fighters.

　　 Maybe they can't compare with the Dark Iron Rank in unarmed combat and other aspects, but if they just use their physical ills to march, they won't be far behind the fighters.

　　 seemed to think of the good time after arriving at the destination, and the smiles on their faces became more sincere.

　　 But at this moment.

　　 hum!

　　 A tall and mysterious spell resounded like a spell from outside the sky, and several light blue light curtains rose from all directions, forming a huge cube that enveloped them.

　　DaDaDa...

　　 Like tactical boots made of metal, they stepped on the ground, making a crisp sound.

　　 From far to near, from small to large.

　　 At the beginning, the voice was still very far away, but after a few breaths, the owner of this voice had already appeared not far from Isaac and the Masked Man.

　　 Indeed, it is not very far, but at this time, this little distance is the difference between life and death.

　　 The light blue light curtain becomes the boundary between life and death.

　　 A very ordinary middle-aged man stood outside the light curtain at a steady pace, watching the two fugitives they had been tracking for a long time.

　　 He was wearing an extremely harsh tactical uniform, with a roaring blood tiger embroidered on his chest.

　　 But because of such an easy-to-watch and even attention-grabbing outfit, his sense of existence is still weak, as if he is standing by the side of ordinary people.

　　 If the other person does not speak, ordinary people will even ignore his existence.

　　 "Mr. Isaac, Mr. Maskman, long time no see."

　　 The middle-aged man nodded at the two in a flat tone, his tone was neither sad nor happy, he could not hear the joy of capturing the two fugitives who had escaped from them again.

　　 "Heh, it's really annoying, I was caught by you hounds."

　　 Before Isaac spoke, he had already heard the depressed words of the masked man who seemed to be grumbling.

　　 There was an extremely unhappy smile on the face of the masked person, but the eyes were full of icy chill, without the slightest temperature.

　　 The middle-aged man's face was still calm, and he didn't seem to be angry at the other party's words. He just looked at Isaac, "Mr. Isaac, if you can catch it now, we will intercede for you before the Emperor as appropriate."

　　 "Do you believe this?" Isaac just chuckled and asked in a trivial way.

　　 At this moment, the gloom on his face seems to have disappeared a lot, with a somewhat rare sense of freedom.

　　 The middle-aged man remained silent after listening to Isaac's rhetorical question. After all, he also knew how unreliable what he said before.

　　 Even his boss, the adult who controls the entire empire's penal department, would not dare to speak such big words.

　　Who is this person in front of him? Isaac, who violated the taboo of the empire, attempted to kill his colleagues, and colluded with illegal forces.

　　 And after that, the opponent did not obey the imperial trial, and the criminal department personnel who escorted the opponent were seriously injured and started desperate.

　　 Just such a crime, you tell me how to wash it, not to mention whether it can be washed, as long as you dare to speak for the other party in front of the emperor, you may be involved.

　　 This matter is now a puddle of muddy water, and it will not end if you get involved.

　　 How could he intercede for each other, after all, he still has a wife and children to raise.

　　 Those words just said are just habit. I hope it can alleviate the opponent's resistance and make their actions go smoother.

　　 But if the other party really agrees, he might even turn his face and refuse to admit it.

　　 Because of this, after trying to understand this, the middle-aged man gave instructions to act through the communication device on his body without saying that he felt insincere to persuade him to surrender.

　　 "According to the plan, start acting."

　　 hum!

　　The scene suddenly shined brightly, and the colorful magical aura appeared from the void and surged towards the light curtain, illuminating the originally dim woods in an extremely colorful way.

　　 The huge cubic cage also began to glow like a energized lamp at this moment, and the surrounding scenery became blurred by the dazzling light.

　　 Looking down from the sky, imperial criminals wearing black combat uniforms appeared on all sides of the cube.

　　 They held different types of standard weapons and stared at the two figures in the cube.

　　唰!

　　 The mana pedestal located in the soil began to swiftly rotate, and the core made of enchanted steel with the best performance in the empire also turned red at this time, as if some could not bear the surging flow of mana particles.

　　 The cubic cage that surrounds Isaac and the masked man shrinks toward the inside at the same time, continuously compressing the vast space.

　　 The middle-aged man stood there, did not follow up with the contraction of the light curtain, but calmly looked at the two people behind the light curtain.

　　 "Damn, can't you just chat with us a few more words, just start the fight, is it so real?"

　　 The masked people chattered like a machine gun, and some rapped words floated in the air.

　　 At this moment, the masked man is like an incarnation of an emotionless Tucao machine, attacking the middle-aged man facing them with trash talking.

　　If Allen and the others could see this scene at this time, they would probably not be sure that this mysterious man with a mask was the enemy they had killed in the first place.

　　 After all, the difference between the two is really huge. It's really hard to say whether or not a person is under the mask.

　　 Although the cube cage envelops Isaac and the Mask Man, it does not block the spread of the sound. Therefore, the middle-aged man can actually hear the Mask Man’s trash talk.

　　 But his expression is still calm and calm, and he doesn't seem to take it all into his heart.

　　 Masked Man did not waste precious time on talking rubbish. At the same time, he was also preparing to cast spells, hoping to get rid of this predicament in front of him.

　　 "No, what did you do?"

　　 The look of the mask man was hidden under the glorious golden mask, but the sudden change of tone showed his inner shock.

　　 The awakened soul power extends in the body, controlling the surging magic power to spread in all directions.

　　 However, at this moment, he was in trouble.

At this moment, the space where he used to travel is like a wall made of steel. Surging pressure is coming from all directions. At this moment, the magic power that used to be like a finger is becoming stagnant at this moment, as if carrying a heavy burden. .

　　 "This is to solidify the forbidden magic field into a portable combined magic circle to achieve the effect of local forbidden magic."

　　 Isaac stood there, looking at the middle-aged man outside the light curtain and said in a calm tone, "Right, Mr. Raham."

　　 Hearing this, the mask man's expression could not help but drastically changed. Even though most of his expression was hidden by the mask, the exposed twitching muscles were enough to explain his uneasy mood.

　　 "Damn, how come there is such a thing, you never told me before."

　　 The masked person couldn't help but burst into a swear word, and his tone was full of grief and anger.

　　 In a sense, the two of them can be regarded as brothers and sisters who live and die together, and there is a lot of support along the way.

　　 It must be a bit worse to say that there are many friendships between life and death, but the trust between the two is absolutely qualified.

　　 After all, they didn't really get out of danger, and they all knew that if they flee alone, they would definitely not end well.

　　 Therefore, it is unlikely that there will be problems with their sincere cooperation before the two are truly safe.

　　 Because of this, Isaac, who once served as a high-level in the empire, became the one who provided the information among the two.

　　 Whether it’s the information of the Criminal Ministry who hunted them down, or the information of the pursuers that may be encountered, and the magic tools that the other party may use, the methods that may be adopted...

　　 These are the main points of the discussion between the two.

　　 After all, knowing oneself and one's enemy will never end in a hundred battles.

　　 Although there is no such saying in the alien world, there are also words with similar meanings.

　　 The reason why the two of them were able to escape safely and steadily before, and escaped during several encirclements and suppressions, was all because of this.

　　 But this time, they seem to be planted.

　　 "Before I was convicted, this magic tool was still in the development stage, even if it was a trial product, it hadn't been developed yet. How did I know that I would encounter this."

　　 "But don't worry, this thing should be a trial work, and it has not achieved the effect of completely prohibiting demons."

　　 Isaac's tone is still flat, but the masked person can hear the restlessness underneath.

　　 It’s just that Isaac’s words didn’t work as they should, and the masked man was not relieved by the comfort of the other party.

　　 After all, although it is said that it has not reached the perfect state, it is not good based on the current situation.

　　Magic power is the search for possibility in the impossible, and the miracle created by the discovery of hope in despair. It is the awakening of the soul, the product of spiritual sublimation, and the concrete manifestation of the extension of vitality.

　　 In that sense, it is an extremely precious existence.

　　And usually, the silver-tier spellcaster will use magic power to mobilize the magic particles in the void, and use one hundred thousand to make his magic power even greater.

　　 This is also the reason why the Silver-tier spellcaster can be called a human-shaped heavy artillery.

　　 But here, in this forbidden realm.

　　 The original lively magical particles in the sky seemed to be frozen by ice at this moment, becoming sluggish.

　　 The empty space at this time seems to be filled with slow mercury, which is extremely heavy.

　　 The strength of the Mask Man and Isaac went straight to three or four out of ten.

　　 It's not that they can't cast spells at this time, but that they can only cast spells by relying on the magic power in their bodies.

　　Furthermore, the effect of the Forbidden Domain is also enhanced as the light curtain prison shrinks.

The Mask Man and Isaac kept simulating the next situation in their minds, and found helplessly, if they could not break the current deadlock, when the light curtain prison squeezed the two into a cube, the magic in their bodies It won't work anymore.

　　 At that time, it is really powerless.

　　 However, since there is still a chance, then the two of them won't catch it with one's hands.

　　 In the temporary communication channel constructed by the communication technique, Isaac and the Mask Man communicated extremely quickly and reached a final decision.

　　……

　　The northern part of the Imperial Capital far away from the city of Gloria ~lightnovelpub.net~In the study of a huge ancient house, an old man with blue eyes sits quietly, as if reading ancient books leisurely.

　　 The water vapor floated from the black tea placed on the desk, adding a bit of warmth to the study.

　　 "Did the people who sent out found the whereabouts of that thing?"

　　 The old man with blue eyes lowered his head and asked as if talking to himself.

　　 There seemed to be another voice in the study room with only one person, which made people feel a little horrified.

　　 But the blue-eyed old man Alec didn't panic because of this, he was still calm, listening to the other party's answer.

　　 "My lord, not really."

　　 "The ten people sent to the Dwarven Demon Battleship were killed before they logged in, and they couldn't perceive the internal situation there."

　　 "The dead man sent to Beit's mansion has also lost contact, but the breath of life has not been extinguished, and he is suspected of being arrested."

　　 Alec didn't look up, took a sip of tea leisurely, and said in a flat tone.

　　 "Then continue to send people. That thing is about whether we can get enough benefits, get the first hand, and whether we can occupy a dominant position in the next great era."

　　 "However, this time, I have to change the method." Alec slowly raised his head, his eyes deep, as if looking towards the far north.

　　 "Yes." A sonorous voice came from the void, and the shadow beside Alec twisted for a moment.
