I raise elves in Florian

Donster looked at everyone and said.

"That was my plan from the beginning."

Duncan looked at Donster and said that he had initially wanted everyone to work together, but few people listened to his advice. Shi Yichen and Frilian were of course not needed because they were already very strong. Besides them, Duncan was the strongest among the candidates.

"Metode, could you please help treat him?"

Duncan looked at Metoley and said, "Metoley is the only part-time monk here, so I can only ask her for help."

"Now you can tell me, right?"

Duncan looked at Donster and said, "If you get some useful information, it will increase their chances of winning."

"That's right. When Miss Edel encountered Miss Jane's clone, she intended to use mental magic to control the clone and create an opening..."

Donster told everyone present about their ordeal and Edel's speculation.

"I see, the clone has no heart."

No wonder Frilian always felt that the clones behaved strangely.

"Yes, according to Miss Edel's judgment, the clone only precisely imitates the functions of the heart, but does not have a real heart."

Donster addressed the crowd, saying that since it was a collaboration, there should be no reservations.

"These can't be easily eliminated; we need to develop a battle plan based on this."

Frillie knew that dealing with something like this was going to be difficult.

"That being said, Frilian, there are still too many uncertainties. Without knowing its nature, there's no way to proceed."

Duncan spoke to Frillian, but his gaze was fixed on Shi Yichen, who was the biggest uncertainty. It was hard to imagine how difficult it would be to deal with a human who had lived for over a thousand years.

"Indeed, even if it's not a perfect copy, it's still very powerful. It's not only a mage but also a powerful warrior, which is a serious problem for us."

Frillie agreed with Duncan's words, saying that even without the goddess's blessing, Shi Yichen was a very powerful person, and he was also skilled in both magic and martial arts.

"In particular, it has the weaknesses that clones have. If we act rashly, we may suffer casualties."

Richter added that the four of them had been injured in a single exchange, and that they could sense that Shi Yichen's clone hadn't used its full strength.

Richter's gaze fell on Jian Ze, who was sitting to the side. As the examiner for the second round of testing, she certainly knew what was inside. Now it was no longer a question of whether to take the test or not, but whether they could survive.

"I'm not going to tell you."

Jian Ze looked at Richter. Since Flame had said to trust Shi Yichen, she must also trust Shi Yichen, so it was impossible for her to say anything.

"I think so too."

Richter was not surprised by this, as it had been mentioned at the beginning of the test.

"That guy has no weaknesses. The one who controls the clones is a monster from the mythological era, the Water Mirror Demon."

Suddenly a voice came from the passage, and Lavigne and Connie came out.

"How did you know?"

Duncan looked at Lavigne with some surprise; he hadn't expected this little girl to have such important information.

“My older brother is a member of the advance team for the Zero King’s Tomb raid of the Continental Magic Association, so I know.”

Lavigne looked at Duncan and said.

"So you already had intelligence all along. No wonder you got here. But I think it's too illogical. If that's the case, you should have shared intelligence with us from the beginning and cooperated with each other."

Richter looked at Lavigne and spoke, but his tone wasn't particularly friendly; they clearly disliked each other.

Of course that's to be expected, because in the first round, Richter wanted to kill Lavigne and Connie. Who would be nice to someone who wants to kill them?

"The atmosphere at the time didn't seem like one that could work together."

Lavigne was not going to give Richter a friendly look, and besides, how could she possibly reveal such important information from the very beginning?

"And when I came to my senses, Frilian and the others were already gone."

Connie chimed in, saying that they had originally intended to go with Frilian and the others, but in the blink of an eye, Frilian and the others had already entered the maze.

"And uncle, if it weren't for the rules, you would definitely abandon your companions without hesitation, right? Who would dare to cooperate with you so easily?"

Lavigne looked at Richter with a knowing eye; she was very good at judging people. From the first round until now, Lavigne was certain that Richter was definitely that kind of person.

"Humph."

Richter smiled helplessly and did not refute, because he was indeed the kind of person who would do such a thing.

"You're disliked."

Duncan also looked at Richter and said.

"I am indeed an older man, but being told this to my face still makes me feel quite emotional."

Richter was helpless in the face of Lavigne's words; after all, he really was an old man.

"Wouldn't it be better if you apologized?"

Connie whispered to Lavigne.

"Sorry, sir."

Lavigne's apology was worse than no apology at all.

"According to the advance team's investigation, the Water Mirror Demon is behind that door, inside the treasure vault. It has no offensive capabilities and is a very fragile monster. Once it is defeated, all the clones will disappear."

Lavigne ignored Richter and continued to tell everyone present about the Water Mirror Demon. As long as they killed the Water Mirror Demon, they could pass the second round of testing.

"In line with our magical detection results, the demon's true form is inside the gate, but that gate has been powerfully sealed."

Duncan addressed the crowd.

"I've also confirmed that seal. It's the 'Guardian Magic of the Treasure Vault Gate' cast by my clone. In folk magic, it's the highest-level sealing magic. The gate won't open unless the caster dies."

Frilian looked at everyone and said, "Although this is just a folk magic, there are two ways to break it. The first is to kill the caster, and the second is to break the seal with absolute power."

"Is this the level of power that folk magic can achieve?"

Duncan looked at Frillie speechlessly. He had also seen the sealing magic, which he knew he couldn't break with his strength. He had thought it was some kind of profound sealing magic, but it turned out to be just a simple folk magic.

"There is a way to bypass the main gate and break through the wall, but my clone should also have a countermeasure."

Frillian is very confident in her magic pool; she has so many spells that even she has to think before using them, but her clones don't need to think and can use them directly.

"And what about its clones?"

Duncan looked at Shi Yichen beside him, which was also his biggest worry.
