Maggie's sudden reaction caused the entire team to come to a sudden stop, and the old mage Modile was the quickest to react among them all - specifically, he had already given it to himself before Miss Dragonborn even finished her last word. He put on three layers of shields, and in the next few seconds, he applied several layers of protection to everyone in the team. For a period of time after that, he continued to apply shields to the entire team.
Of course, while refreshing the shield, he did not delay observing the surroundings and communicating with Maggie. He first spread his perception, confirmed that there was only his own team in the entire forest area, and then released it outwards. After two rounds of mental pulses, he frowned and looked at the Dragonborn lady next to him: "There is no one what did you see just now?"
"No, there is someone, I'm sure," Maggie frowned, still staring at the shadow area between the woods - similar shadows can be seen everywhere in the entire forest, which are abnormal dim gathering points, even in It also maintains an almost solid outline in the sunlight, and the exploration team will pay attention to avoid such areas along the way. "Deep in the shadow, I am sure I saw a figure."
"A figure?" Modier frowned and glanced over there, "The surrounding vegetation has no trace of being touched, and there is no magic or biological aura left What kind of figure do you see?"
Although he didn't see anything, Modile did not regard Maggie's words as lies because of this. His rich adventure experience told him that when the teammates around you suddenly say with certainty that they saw something, you will be the last to Let's first assume that it's true - it's one thing for teammates to be wrong, it's another thing to be careless and ignore the danger, not to mention that they are walking in the most evil forest in the world at the moment God knows the night After the lady fell asleep, she left something in the forest.
"A figure wearing a cloak, the whole body was shrouded in a black cloak and hood," Maggie briefly recalled, "I couldn't see the outline of the man's body clearly, I could only feel that the other person's whole body was dark like a shadow, even the hood There seemed to be only a dark and shapeless shadow below. In addition, he was motionless there, and every part of his body was still This was very strange, because it was windy in the woods just now. No matter how steady a person stood, , His clothes should have been blown by the wind, but that figure didn¡¯t even move the corners of his clothes"
"It feels like an illusion projected in the air, but its body is not here," Modier said a guess before the other party finished speaking, and then frowned and analyzed, "Under the clothes, it is completely dark. 'Shadow', which sounds a bit like the shadow dwellers I know, but the shadow dwellers' bodies are bound by a shroud-like substance, which is a very obvious and standard feature except for the cloak. Do you see any other characteristics besides?"
Maggie thought about it carefully and shook her head slowly: "The cloak is all the characteristics of the other party. Apart from that, there are no accessories or weapons Wait, there is something. I remembered it. There is a silver-white emblem. Look. It looks like a pin on the front of a cloak¡±
Miss Dragonborn frowned when she said this, and then continued: "But I didn't have time to see the style of the emblem clearly - the figure of the other party only appeared for a moment. In fact, the other party had already begun to dissipate before I yelled. ¡¡±
"For a momentbut you did see it, right?" Modier thought for a moment, and suddenly confirmed again. He looked into Maggie's eyes with a serious tone, "Do you mind if I use somemagic? A little trick to help you recall the details in your short-term memory? Don¡¯t worry, I won¡¯t pry into your privacy. In fact, I can¡¯t pry into your privacy.¡±
Maggie was startled for a moment, then seemed to react: "You mean 'memory retrieval'? But isn't this spell only the caster can use it on themselves? It's used to assist in learning spellscan you use it on others?"
"The original version can only be used by myself, but I have improved it a bit," Modier said cheerfully. "Sometimes I will take risks with temporary teammates. After all, an extra pair of eyes will make me more thoughtful, but temporary teammates Not all of them are necessarily experienced adventurers, so I will use magic to enhance the abilities of temporary teammates in case of emergencies"
Maggie's expression suddenly felt a little strange. She was quite curious about how many bizarre adventures the great adventurer in front of her had had in the past, so that he could accumulate so many incredible experiences and unimaginable solutions. She was even more curious about this great adventurer. What kind of group of neurotic desperadoes does the so-called "temporary teammates" have to be to have the courage to embark on those adventures with him that would sit at the end of any heroic legend, but these problems are gone at this time. It doesn't matter anymore. At this time 75zhongwen.com Zhang Si
&nbA "Special Section for Counterrevolutionary Affairs" that specializes in dealing with disloyal elements within the imperial government system, but she has never heard of a "Shadow Affairs Section" - judging from the name, this is a quite important department.
And this name came from the mouth of a strange girl who mysteriously appeared on Violet Island and didn't look like a Cecil at all. This matter is even more suspicious.
Not to mention that the other party actually knows his name. 强牺 zhuiyo.com 读牺
"I know you have a lot of doubts, and I also know that you have never heard of the name 'Shadow Affairs Division' - this is normal, because even Director Amber and His Majesty don't know about it," said the silver-haired man who called himself "Morning Star" The girl smiled, but due to her pale face that seemed to have lost all color, the smile looked a bit scary, "I'm sorry to talk to you in this way - but we didn't expect Mr. Adventurer to use it directly. A spell like 'memory retrieval' is used to check your short-term memory. In this way, he will find the 'imprint' left in your mind and probably erase it easily. Then my work will be in vain.

"In order to prevent my work from going to waste, I had to activate this mark in advance while the adventurer was retrieving his memory Please rest assured that this is just a small corner between your memory and consciousness. What you left in the real world Your body and your companions are safe, and our conversation will take less than a hundredth of a second in real life."
"Is this some kind of spell that manipulates the mind and implants thoughts? Just like the magic of the Eternal Sleeper?" Maggie frowned, carefully paying attention to the girl's actions while slightly lowering the tip of the sword. This action was She expressed temporary peace, but did not completely relax her vigilance. At the same time, her eyes fell on the other party's cloak again, and on the emblem representing the Military Intelligence Bureau, "Are you reallyan operator of the Military Intelligence Bureau? Then Why don't His Majesty Gawain and Miss Amber know of your existence? And from what you just said there are many of you?"
"Please don't get me wrong. This is just a small way to interfere with dreams and cognition. It is not the same thing as dangerous mind invasion." The silver-haired girl smiled, seemingly not caring about Maggie's caution. "As for the details behind my identity I'm sorry, there are some things that cannot be disclosed to the outside world before a certain point in time. I can only tell you that 'we' have no hostility, and 'we' are your friends, allies, and comrades-since many years ago From the beginning, we served the Empire, though our allegiance was unknown."
