Time never shifts by human will, but stubbornly moves forward towards the end of the story.

The convoy returning from the outskirts of the city of Gloria resembled long serpents, sending waves of dust on the barren land.

And the people sitting in the vehicle can already see the gloomy sky in the distance through the muddy air, and see the dim city wall under the gloomy sky.

The city of Gloria is near.

As if perceiving the arrival of his destination, Allen slowly opened his closed eyes, awakened from the shallow sleep, and looked into the distance.

"Wake up, I will go back soon, and I can have a good rest."

Leonard didn't seem to be surprised by Alan's waking up. He glanced out the window casually and said to Alan.

"I think it might not be that simple."

However, after hearing Leonard's words, Alan didn't show a slight smile, his face was slightly bitter.

To be honest, he didn't wake up because he sensed that he was about to return to Gloria City, but only because he had a bad premonition.

The feeling was very shallow, but it was real, the kind of ominous premonition that Allen was most familiar with.

That kind of premonition that Allen had felt and experienced several times.

Hum!

Hearing Alan's answer, Leonard raised his eyebrows, and his somewhat wilted eyes covered by dark circles could not help but suddenly opened, exuding a bright brilliance.

The terrifying silver-gray magic power rose up in Leonard's body, and then spread out quietly, silently, but extremely terrifying.

One spell model after another was formed in an instant, spreading in all directions.

【Life Detection】【Danger Perception】【Magic Peeping】……

Leonard, who broke out with all his strength, was extremely terrifying.

After all, let's not talk about others, how many people can release several detection spells at the same time in the case of prompt non-spell casting.

Even Ms. Kelly, who is also a silver-tier spellcaster, is estimated to be slightly worse.

No way, although he respects the seniors, the opponent is not a strong man who has gone up the orthodox mage route, but a bloodline wizard who is dictated by his talent, and he does have some shortcomings in this respect.

However, in other respects, Ms. Kaili is terribly strong, worthy of her veteran silver rank powerhouse.

The terrifying magical energy fluctuations were extremely obscure, sweeping in all directions, but did not attract too many people's attention.

Of course, this refers to ordinary transcendents.

Although Leonard's methods are extraordinary, the silver ranks in today's team are either powerful bosses or rich treasure boys.

Regardless of the situation, it is extremely uncomfortable.

Therefore, although Leonard's methods were cryptic, they were still perceived by the opponent.

Of course, because of the previous greeting, it did not cause too much fluctuation.

The terrifying mana wave swept across, and the area within a radius of Leonard as the center was very clear. However, he did not find the "wrong place" Allen said.

"Come up, although I don't know what happened, but I don't think it is far away."

Alan looked at Leonard's puzzled eyes and didn't explain much. He just sighed and looked at the city wall that seemed to be near as the two sides approached.

The bleak sky is getting deeper and deeper, and the black clouds continue to press down. The good thing is to cover the entire city in darkness.

The bright silver lightning roared like a dragon among the gloomy clouds, but it only added a bit of silence and weirdness to this sky.

...

"Hey, can you think of a way? If you don't have any more ideas, we will be properly arranged by the other party." The masked man supported the half-worn man named Isaac towards Gerry, who was not far away. The north gate of Asia City continued to move forward, and said urgently.

"What's the hurry, it's useless for you to urge me." Isaac went back unceremoniously, his words full of untimely calmness.

"Did you get along?"

However, although Isaac's words are full of unreliable scents, the masked person who has been with the other party for a long time understands the confidence of the other party's unreliable words.

"Well, maybe I have some ideas."

Isaac also knew that the current time was pressing, so he didn't waste time and went straight to the subject.

"Turn, turn left at the intersection ahead."

"Are you sure?"

The face of the mask man has been indifferent for a long time, but there is unstoppable joy in his eyes.

Although he was still asking the other person in his mouth, the steps of the mask man had already begun to follow Isaac's words.

"You know, if we change direction now, there will be no turning back."

"When we turn now, we have lost the last hope of escaping from Glia City."

"If your method fails, we will most likely fall into the opponent's hands because of the serious injury, and we will cut off our last hope."

He kept saying this, like a murmur, but the mask man faithfully implemented Isaac's orders.

Of course, it may be a bit too much to say that the order is, after all, the two are not related to subordinates.

But the mutual trust between the Mask Man and Isaac almost surpassed ordinary limits.

Just like now, even in such a critical situation, the mask man still did not question the other party's decision.

It is true that this is because he has no better way, but also because of the friendship between the two of them.

On the other hand, this is also the little guilt of the Mask Man for Isaac.

Although the two agreed that they flee together and support each other, they are often taken care of by the masked person on the way.

Of course, this is not because of Isaac's unspeakable hobbies, but because of a simple reason.

You know, the reason why the two did not choose to escape from the border of the empire after escaping from the imperial penal department, but returned to the city of Griya.

Mainly because they want to take chestnuts out of the fire and get the "thing" that the Pale Council and the forces behind them desire.

After all, it is more joyful for them to live in the sun more openly than fugitives who have been wandering and panicking all their lives.

However, to achieve the latter goal, the requirements for strength will be greater.

Isaac and the Mask Man joined forces, in addition to having enough strength to protect themselves, but also because they both had the same desire for "that thing".

However, the difference is that the mask man only knows the general news of the thing, but there is no real clue.

But Isaac is different, not only has substantial clues, but has also found the target item.

To be honest, if it weren’t for the mission to kill Alan, Isaac should return to Gloria City as soon as possible after the completion of the Frozen Fortress support mission to take out the good items hidden by him, and then quietly turn on that A huge treasure.

For this purpose, Isaac even dared to take the risk of offending the huge power behind him to grab food.

After all, such a risk is nothing compared to the huge benefits.

To be honest, Isaac's arrangements and calculations are not bad, he perfectly avoided all risks, even the Pale Council and the mysterious force did not discover his small actions.

This mind, this kind of method, can be called a heifer standing upside down, arrogant to the sky.

However, Isaac counted all the possibilities, and the only thing he didn't expect was that he overturned the boat in the gutter.

Not only did he fall into the hands of the Imperial Penalty Department, but he also lost the opportunity to advance with his life.

How can this make him reconciled?

So, with a little help from the old school, he and the masked man escaped from prison together.

Even if he knew it, the other party was just using them to attract firepower.

It is also for the above reasons that although the union of the two seems to be equal, there is a division of importance.

Isaac knew the location of that thing, so it must be impossible to abandon it.

Otherwise, why did the Mask Man spend so much effort running back to Glia City with Isaac, leaving the border of the empire, and living in another place where it is not fragrant?

But the Mask Man himself is at a disadvantage at this point, and he has always had deep concerns about his situation.

Isaac also understands the other party very well, changing places, his allies hold the key to the final treasure, but he has only brute force.

When they are still useful, the two can naturally get along well and support each other.

However, if you are injured, will the other party abandon yourself.

After all, this is simply a good way to kill two birds with one stone. It not only gets rid of the burden, but also reduces the "harvest" that one might spend.

In empathy, this kind of worry is very likely.

Therefore, in order to dispel such doubts of the other party, it is also to express one's sincerity.

On the way to escape, Isaac took the initiative to take the damage most of the time, just to stabilize their unreliable alliance.

However, how should I say that before surpassing human beings, they are still emotional creatures after all. Even if they know that the relationship and relationship between the two are mixed with many interest considerations, but after many lives and deaths, they can no longer be simple. Abandoned the other party.

This is also normal. After all, pure feelings are beautiful but also very fragile. Even though interests are mixed, it seems a little realistic, but it is the most reliable guarantee.

Perceiving the chattering on the mouth of the masked person next to him, but the honest behavior under his feet, Isaac seemed to have thought of something, and the corners of his mouth evoked a slight curve.

However, in the next moment, this tiny smile disappeared without a trace.

"Don't worry." Isaac still said calmly, but at the end, there was a slight smile in his tone unconsciously, "In the worst case, it's just that the two of us died here."

Hearing Isaac's seemingly irresponsible words, the forehead covered by the golden mask wrinkled involuntarily, a little speechless towards the other party's untimely performance.

I don't know if it is because of too much life and death recently, Isaac, who was originally taciturn, seems to have a liberating nature.

In most cases, the other party still has that gloomy face, but occasionally, the other party will act completely inconsistent with his own temperament, making people wonder what expression to face.

"Okay." Taking a deep breath, there was no extra question, the mask man just responded in a deep voice, suppressing the weird feeling in his heart that he didn't know what language to describe, and started to speed up following Isaac's instructions.

...

The dry branches swayed from side to side in the strong wind, and the yellow leaves sparsely dotted them, exuding the silence of everything in the cold winter.

The fierce wind gradually increased, and even the withered yellow leaves that had been devastated by the winter but still clinging to the stubble branches were a little unbearable, making a rustling sound, as if they were about to dance in the sound of this violent wind.

Click!

There was a sudden sound of undetectable cracking, and before the leaves surrendered, the dry branches were the first to defeat.

The branches that were dry and lacking in moisture couldn't bear the mercy of the strong wind, and broke away from the place where they grew.

Phew! Huh...

The heavy and tyrannical wind was raging heavily, like an invisible dragon roaring around.

Leaves, branches, dust, discarded newspapers, meaningless decorations, small cards that don’t know what’s written...

These things that lived in the corner of Gloria City in the past have returned to the big stage of Gloria City today, seeming to evoke people's forgotten memories.

The invisible mad dragon passed through the streets in the city, but with the support of these things, it had a rough shape.

The wind is strong or weak, and there are also more or less debris floating in the air.

Those floating things can sometimes be swept by the strong wind and attached to the other person~lightnovelpub.net~ sometimes they fall to the ground because the wind changes direction.

These things came and went, but the invisible "crazy dragon" became clearer.

These inconspicuous things whirled and hit the wall. The windows and doors made a faint but clear sound, and then hit the ground by the hard brick wall.

Then, the next moment, these things whirled up again, drifting along the wind in an unknown direction.

However, in this, there are some very weird pictures.

For example, those debris gathered together, riding a strong wind, raging on the streets and alleys without people, and rushing forward unstoppably.

However, the next moment, when the debris passed through the street that looked empty, as if there was nothing, they seemed to have encountered something and slipped over an invisible smooth surface.

Or, hitting an invisible wall, reflecting back towards the way it came, and then advancing under the wind.

Until the other party bumped back again, or finally crossed the invisible barrier in the cycle of not knowing the number of times, and finally got rid of the terrible "destiny".

"Everyone once again determined the location of the'prey', checked the equipment, and recalled the battle plan. After a minute, we officially started to act."

In this swaggering gust of wind, on the information channel built along the magic communication ritual in the void, a calm voice suddenly ordered the start of the final deployment.

In the invisible team, the middle-aged man stands at the forefront, his calm sight seems to be able to see through the barriers of the wall, he can see the "prey" that he and others are thinking of.

His pupils seem to be as calm as water, but below that deep, what is burning is the hottest fire.
