The light of dawn once again enveloped the ancient city. Fang Sheng stood up and walked to the window, just like yesterday, feeling the warmth of the light pouring down on him. He squinted his eyes slightly, enjoying the tranquility and beauty of this moment.

At this time, Armand knocked on Fang Sheng's door on time and brought food. After returning to the city last night, Armand told Fang Sheng about his situation, but the result was disappointing. Despite his efforts, he still did not find any useful information.

All the extraordinary people of the church were dispatched, some cooperated with the guards to guard the city gates, while others cooperated with each other to conduct a carpet search in the city, trying to catch the mysterious suspect. However, despite their best efforts, they still failed to gain anything.

Fang Sheng's mind flashed back to the scene of entering the city in the early morning. At that time, he could still see several extraordinary people from the church patrolling the streets. However, the efforts of these people did not seem to bring about obvious changes. Instead, the whole city was shrouded in tension and panic.

Fang Sheng stood quietly in front of the window, staring at the street outside the window, with a lot of thoughts in his mind. Compared with yesterday, the streets today were obviously much quieter, with only a few small vendors gathered on both sides of the street, with a trace of sadness and uneasiness on their faces. This was in sharp contrast to the bustle of the past, as if the whole city was shrouded in a depressing atmosphere.

Fang Sheng couldn't help but sigh softly. He knew that all this was caused by the church's actions. Although the church's original intention might be good, their approach seemed too arbitrary and did not take the feelings of the people into consideration at all. Even if we don't start from the perspective of the people, just from the perspective of the extraordinary, we shouldn't act like this.

Today, the people of Julianum are increasingly afraid of the unknown because their peaceful lives have been suddenly disrupted. If this situation continues, Fang Sheng has no doubt that the panic of the people will cause greater chaos and may even attract the arrival of demons or monsters.

By then, the situation will undoubtedly be difficult for the church to control.

After taking another look at the street outside, Fang Sheng was thinking about leaving and heading to the Adventurer's Guild to wait for Yawen. But at this moment, in front of a stall, Fang Sheng noticed an octogenarian with gray hair.

Although the old gentleman looked frail and as if a gust of wind could blow him down, Fang Sheng could keenly sense the faint traces of magic power and the aura of an old scholar emanating from him.

The extraordinary person of the Church of Knowledge? Fang Sheng thought to himself, narrowing his eyes slightly, and the idea of ​​leaving was instantly dispelled. He stood quietly by the window, seemingly nonchalantly casting his eyes at the old gentleman with a bookish air.

From his perspective, he saw the old man with a kind face, chatting happily with the stall owner. His smile was very kind, as if he was just an ordinary old man chatting with an acquaintance. But the magic he had sensed earlier made him prick up his ears and listen attentively to the conversation between the two, trying to capture more valuable information from it.

Time passed by minute by minute, and after a while, Fang Sheng had a general understanding of the situation. He gave up the idea of ​​listening, turned to look at Armand, and said calmly: "There is an old man downstairs, try to follow him, but remember not to alert him. If you are discovered, don't force yourself to follow him, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble."

Armand nodded, walked to the window and took a look at the old man's appearance, then answered Fang Sheng firmly: "Mr. Julian, don't worry, I will try my best to catch up with him." After that, he turned and left the room and went downstairs quietly.

After giving the instructions, Fang Sheng did not stay there any longer. He put on his coat and left the room.

……

In the Julian Forest, Fang Sheng, ready to go, followed behind Yawen and Helimina.

There was no... not no conversation along the way.

Fang Sheng looked at Helimina, who was chattering in front of him, and Yawen, who occasionally replied to him. Helimina's laxity made Fang Sheng a little puzzled. If it weren't for the armor on their bodies and the sharp weapons in their hands, people would believe that the three of them were here for tourism.

Helimina excitedly told her story, and Yawen, who was leading the way, would occasionally respond with a helpless expression on his face. Fang Sheng followed silently behind, observing the surrounding environment.

Although Fang Sheng didn't feel good about Helimina's behavior, considering the orcs' incredible intuition and the fact that a wild beast just tried to launch a sneak attack and Helimina reacted even faster than himself, Fang Sheng gave up the idea.

In such a pleasant atmosphere, the three of them soon arrived in front of a small cave. Fang Sheng stood in front of the cave, staring at the entrance, and kept recalling the width of the green-footed dragon snake in his mind. His brows knitted slightly, and doubts surged in his mind.

Yawen's expression also turned serious. He looked down at the golden-haired mouse in his hand and called softly, as if asking if there was really no problem.

As soon as he finished speaking, the golden-haired mouse immediately stood up, pointed its little paws at the cave, and made a squeaking sound from its mouth.

"This should be it." Fang Sheng suddenly pointed to the sides of the cave, with a hint of certainty in his voice. Yawen looked in the direction of his finger and saw fresh marks of falling and gravel on both sides of the cave. These marks seemed to be forcibly stretched by something and looked very rough.

"I think the Green-footed Dragon Snake has slightly expanded it." Fang Sheng's eyes flickered with thought, "But from the looks of it, he probably hasn't completely renovated his 'new home'."

Yawen nodded, a hint of worry in his eyes.

"Here, a magic potion that can remove the aura on your body." Fang Sheng took out two bottles of crystal clear potions and handed them to Yawen.

Fang Sheng's expression turned serious, and he explained earnestly: "This thing can only eliminate the aura on us. As for the movements under our feet, we still have to pay special attention ourselves."

After hearing Fang Sheng's instructions, Yawen and Helimina opened the bottle together and drank the potion that emitted a mysterious glow.

As the medicine went down their throats, they felt as if their bodies became lighter and the aura on their bodies gradually dissipated.

After everything was ready, the three of them entered the cave silently like ghosts.

Fang Sheng looked at Helimina in front of him. Her movements were agile and silent, like a cat on the hunt. Although she looked a little out of tune just now, she showed the qualities of an adventurer in her actions, which changed Fang Sheng's opinion.
