The Lord of the Rings: Lords of Middle-earth.

Chapter 502 The Source of the Curse
Knights' perception is more useful for predicting and calculating the trajectory of enemy weapon attacks in close combat, rather than for searching for enemies from thousands of miles away like spellcasters. Therefore, although heroes may also have very strong mental power, when it comes to mental detection, warriors can never compare to spellcasters. The difference in mental power between the two is like that between a rifle and a cannon: one is an area-of-effect attack, and the other is a close-range attack.

"Boom!" Caslo descended from the sky and landed directly in front of Omsk.

"How is it?" Omske asked, looking at Kaslow.

“Look! Isn’t that what’s behind there?” Caslo pointed to the horizon.

"Hmm?" Omske raised his hand to shade his head and looked in the direction Caslo was pointing. Sure enough, a figure was flying rapidly through the sky.

"Whoosh!" Before the Star Dragon could land, a figure flipped down, rolled a few times in the air, and landed on one knee on the ground. The whole movement was dashing and handsome. Omske grinned and had to admit that he had been fooled.

"How is it now? Still haven't found it?" Iovia stood up and patted Omske on the shoulder.

“Hey! Your Highness! I haven’t stopped yet! Watch out!” Peter Groh shouted.

"It doesn't matter, that little height can't confine me!" Iovia waved her hand dismissively.

“…” Peter Groh pursed his lips.

"Your Majesty Omsk, greetings." Peter Gro greeted Omsk politely.

"Hello, esteemed Star Dragon Knight!" Omske smiled in a friendly manner.

“The situation is unclear, and we don’t know if they’ve found them or not,” Omsk explained to Peter Gro and Iovia with a shrug.

"It's a bit difficult for heroes to find this thing using their mental power. The spellcasters have already dispersed! They'll notify us with magical signal flares if they have any news!" Omske said. Yunfeng had distributed a lot of signal flares to everyone before the operation, so communication was still quite convenient.

"Alright, let's begin then! Your Majesty, please feel free to do as you please." Iovia glanced at Omske. Indeed, the rangers, who were also warriors, had a wider mental range than the knights. It was a tragic thing, to say the least.

"Um, actually I can explore by boat." Omske touched his nose somewhat awkwardly. Although he couldn't explore and sense things in detail, he could still sense things roughly for several kilometers.

"Forget it, there's no need for that. Curses are usually hidden very deeply, and that level of investigation won't find them." Iovia shook his head. In fact, he was only slightly better than Omske. His only useful skill was finding curses hidden in spatial rifts. Although there weren't many people who could hide the source of a curse in a spatial rift, there were still wizards who could do it.

“Your Highness, then Caslo and I will begin!” Peter Gro nodded to Iovia, and then took off with Caslo. As the powerful spiritual energy of the dragons bloomed, countless people looked up. Even Yun Feng in the distance looked up in surprise, after all, he could feel the terrifying pressure of that spiritual energy.

……

"Damn it! I'm going to beat this sorcerer to a pulp!" Yun Feng angrily swept his mental energy across the water, and the occasional aquatic monsters that appeared trembled under his mental energy and had nowhere to hide.

Long Lake has suffered a disaster today. It's never been this grand before! Several powerful spiritual forces are conducting a grid search of the lake, sweeping across it with their energy. The nascent intelligent magical beasts are so frightened that they lie motionless at the bottom of the water. Anyone unaware of the situation would think they've broken some heavenly law…

"Hmm? Hmm!" Yun Feng paused when he subconsciously scanned his mental energy. He suddenly felt an unprecedented resistance when his mental energy swept over it. Although it disappeared instantly, it still caught Yun Feng's attention.

"Break!" Yun Feng's eyes widened, turning into a white-hot color. A surge of spiritual power spread outwards from his brain, instantly lifting Yun Feng into the air.

"Hiss... Crack..." A series of fine tearing sounds came from the unstable space. "Gotcha!" Yun Feng smiled.

"He...he...he ran away?" Yun Feng's eyes widened in disbelief. The cooked duck was gone!
"This curse even has a displacement effect?" Yun Feng's facial muscles twitched, showing extreme anger.

"Bang!" A crimson magic flare rose into the sky, exploded with a unique magic signal, and then slowly dissipated.

……

"Something's up!" Iovia looked up and then ran towards Yunfeng, stepping on the water.

"Wow, who's so lucky to have found it so quickly?" Caslo also turned his dragon head and flew over.

"We found it over there! Let's go!" Ivy said, wiping the sweat from her forehead and panting.

"Have we found it? Let's go take a look!" Peter Gro said casually, patting the dragon beneath him.

……

"What's going on with Lord Yunfeng?" Caslo asked, hovering beside Yunfeng.

"It's the source of the spatial teleportation curse! Someone went to great lengths to do this!" A low-pressure atmosphere permeated around Yun Feng. After all, as a sixth-level sage known for his vast knowledge, it was no wonder that he was in a bad mood after being tricked.

"Is it that troublesome?" Caslo was taken aback, after all, anything with the word "space" in its name was not simple.

"Well, let's wait until everyone arrives. Maybe Iovia can help! I can't find its spatial anchor point anymore, so I've lost track of its location." Yun Feng shook his head. Spatial movement leaves traces of spatial anchor points, and professionals familiar with space can obtain location information by identifying these anchor points.

“That’s all we can do!” Caslo nodded. After all, he could handle simple spatial manipulation, but he was helpless when it came to things involving so much spatial knowledge.

……

"Huh? The source of the spatial teleportation curse?" Iovia's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.

"Have you offended the gods? Why go to such lengths?" Iovia asked in surprise. He was now wondering if someone had defecated on a statue in some temple... Who would go to such lengths to set up a plague curse?

"Stop joking, let's find it first!" Yun Feng pouted helplessly, her eyes filled with anger. How dare a mere curse play tricks on her...

"Mind Slice!" Yun Feng shouted, and his powerful mental energy immediately sliced ​​through the spatial barrier like a knife. A sound like cutting glass rang out as the furious Yun Feng used his mental energy to directly cut through space.

"Find it! Your Highness Iovia!" Yunfeng said to Iovia while holding up the spatial rift.

"Uh, okay!" Iovia nodded blankly. Are spellcasters all this powerful now? They'll just pry open someone's skull without a second thought? Iovia felt a chill run down her spine.

My phone has been having problems these past few days, with updates failing. I'll fix it during the National Day holiday.
