Chapter 231 Preparation and Testing

“Go in.” Lucian caught another player and threw the alien player with a dog’s head and a human body into the red line, just like he did with the birdman just now.

However, this time Lucian did not deliberately release his "malice", but simply attached his mental power to the player, observing the player like a spectator.

The panicked ogre stumbled forward, and when he turned a corner, he subconsciously ran in one direction.

That was the direction away from the core of the Mondok family residence.

When this ogre stumbled out, he did not encounter attacks from other powerful players like the birdman before. However, every time he was faced with a choice, he would choose a path away from the Mondok family mansion.

"Sigh..." Lucian, who had been silently observing the kobold based on the mental mark, sighed in his heart. He then sneaked into the shadow space, quickly came to the side of the kobold, and then beheaded the kobold player with a moon blade.

"It seems that if there is no obvious hostility or malice, the countermeasures may be relatively mild, but the result is still the same, that is, we cannot violate its core bottom line, that is, the core area close to the Mondok family mansion..."

Lucian glanced expressionlessly at the now wide-eyed kobold and casually cleared away the mental mark that had previously attached to it.

He was quite satisfied with the results of tonight's test, but now Lucian still wanted to try one last experiment.

He gently closed his eyes, and quickly adjusted his mental state to the peak through breathing. Then Lucian opened his eyes again, and then he released the mental pressure of the peak of the first-level wizard without any concealment.

Unlike the previous concealment of using mental power as tentacles, Lucian's aura burst this time was not concealed. The mental power quickly swept in other directions with him as the center. The aura he exuded could be easily felt even by players who were not good at detection.

In this situation, an outburst of momentum is a provocation to other players, a demonstration to assert sovereignty.

So when Lucian burst out with momentum, he felt the gazes of some powerful players around him.

These gazes may be mixed with malice, or perhaps a hint of disdain.

However, Lucian could sense that three of the players were rapidly approaching him without any concealment.

“Let’s go.” Lucian restrained his breath without hesitation, then sneaked into the shadow space and quickly left before these players arrived.

"I can feel their 'malice' towards me, but I don't know if their other-directed malice will attract the attention of the 'Red Line.'" Not far away, on the top of a spire, Lucian silently looked down at the street below, while also using his mental power to sense some special fluctuations that were difficult to observe with the naked eye.

Soon, Lucian looked towards the place where he had stayed before. He could feel a strong fluctuation of magic energy erupting there at this moment, as if a battle had broken out between strong men there. Judging from the aftermath of the battle, this should have been caused by several first-level wizards at the peak or second-level wizards.

“Haha… The last test was a complete success.” Lucian’s mouth curled up slightly, and then he was covered by the shadow airflow again, drilled into the shadow layer, and quickly moved towards his residence.

……

"Thank you very much for your help..." In front of the temporary camp, Rudy of the Cecilia family bowed solemnly to Hercules.

"When I was clearing out the demons before, I was too reckless. Not only did I almost perish because of my lost control of my talent, but I almost dragged you all into the abyss..."

"We just did what we should do." Hercules kept Roland's usual seriousness on his face and just gave Rudy a polite smile.

"But I still want to remind Master Rudy that in the next battle, if you have to choose between certainty and uncertainty, it is best to choose a conservative decision. After all, on the battlefield, a teammate who does not play a role is far less harmful than..."

"I will definitely pay attention!" Rudy's face turned slightly red, as if he was ashamed of his previous reckless behavior.

Hercules just nodded lightly and said no more. This was also Roland's usual personality: cold-faced, kind-hearted, and not good at speaking. He would only show his unknown side in front of people he was familiar with...

"Sister Roland, don't say that about Rudy. Haha, I think Rudy is pretty good. At least he is much stronger than when I first went to the battlefield!" Rafar laughed, breaking the awkward and dull atmosphere on the field.

Hercules glanced at him and said nothing. However, Rudy, who was standing next to him, was obviously in a much better mood because of Rafar's indirect comfort.

"There is nothing special in his blood. Perhaps it is not his bloodline that is special, but his talent..." Hercules silently focused his attention on Rudy, but in his mind he thought of the analysis and research he conducted on Rudy's blood last night using some equipment he carried with him. The five great brave families... Hercules' eyes flickered slightly, and then he looked at the purple-dressed girl [Sura] who was inside the team and smiled at Rafar.

This is also a "quasi-hero" who has awakened the talent of a hero, but she has always been following Rafar, so Hercules is somewhat restrained.

"What a trouble." Hercules muttered to himself, but soon he put on a stern face again.

"Okay, the team is about to set off. Master Rudy, if you still want to continue the conversation, you can go to the side and don't block the entrance of the camp. This will inconvenience other knights from marching in and out."

Then, Hercules glanced at Rafar again and said, "Rafar, come over after you finish talking about things. We are not far away from the target demon nest now, so I need you, the reconnaissance captain, to play a role!"

"Yes, I will ensure that the mission is completed, Captain Roland!" Rafar saluted with a playful smile, causing Hercules to quietly clench his fist.

However, he did not say anything, but just nodded slightly, and then looked at a sturdy knight beside him, "Fugen, you lead a team to assist Rafar in completing this task."

"Yes!" Fugen glanced at Rafar coldly, but a barely perceptible coldness flashed in his eyes.

He and Rafar had a personal grudge. Although it was covered up for some reasons before, fortunately, he has now found the real murderer who killed his sister, and now, he seems to have a great opportunity.

"Captain...it's no problem for me to go alone..." Rafar looked at Fugen, who had a simple smile on his face, but felt a little reluctant.

"This is an order!" Hercules sneered in his heart, but still put on a businesslike attitude, "Folgen is one of the best knights under my command. With his help, even if you encounter a small group of demons, there is a high probability that you can escape unscathed."

"Don't worry, Captain. I will definitely protect Master Rafar." Fugen also quickly expressed his attitude, but his slightly hurried voice still made Rafar's heart tremble slightly.

He opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't dare to say anything. After all, he couldn't let Roland and Sura know about the things he did behind his back...

"I understand, Sister Roland." Rafar could only lower his head helplessly.

"Well, go ahead." Hercules watched the team leave indifferently.

"I don't know if this hatred from the characters in the plot will attract the attention of Red Line, or in other words, will it trigger other vigilance of Rafar?"

Hercules sneered in his heart. As a "reincarnation", he naturally knew the secret relationships between many characters, including the cause of death of Fugen's sister.

Because in his first reincarnation, the married young woman he played played a not very glorious role in this time.

The mastermind behind this is naturally the philandering Rafar.

According to the plot, Fugen will probably learn the truth two months after the end of this crusade and his return to the Trujillo family. By that time, Rafar has become one of the war heroes who fought against the demons, and is not a big shot he can deal with directly. In the end, Fugen chooses to assassinate him and becomes the key villain who drives Rafar and another female character to fall in love.

But this time, Fugen knew the truth in advance.

It was a key clue that Hercules accidentally revealed during his communication with Fulgrim in the identity of "Roland". Fulgrim himself pieced together the truth of the matter in advance based on some of the information he had.

"The plot and characters are all in line with the plot, the only difference is the time..." Hercules' expression was calm and serious. He looked at the reconnaissance team, which had now become a few small black dots, and silently cheered for Fugen in his heart.

If we can really take the opportunity to kill Rafar, the guy who is the master of the dream, it will surely serve as a warning to other players, right?
Even then, they will become a help in finding the truth...

Thinking of this, Hercules' mouth curled up slightly, and then he drew out his knight's sword, "The first squadron will disperse in small groups to be on guard. Everyone slow down the march and keep the formation moving forward! Be alert to sneak attacks from the demons!"

"Yes, leader!"

Hercules smiled. As the leader of the Knights Templar, he had to give Fugen enough time and space for his revenge.
