Chapter 2017 How many people can your bodyguard protect?
There was black ash in the soil, and the ashes burned by a certain plant after being powdered. Although there were very few parts and it was even more difficult to distinguish when mixed in the soil, he still found this trace based on his experience.
"Tree?" Richard looked at the results of Oro's analysis and asked in surprise. If something was found here, it would be easy to understand. It would be considered a place to bury the bones, but something like a tree would be wrong?
"It may be something else... Unfortunately, the prophecy detection performed by that hair can only be found here." Oro said with some regret, put away the black ash. If you continue to flip through, you may even be able to find a new black ash, but this kind of thing is enough.
Can identify some additional clues to follow-up investigations.
If you investigate some new clues, you can find out what the trees or other plants hidden underground are, and at least you have a new investigation direction now.
"That human is the existence that has always threatened you. He is very brave and dares to come out at this time." In the distance, an abyss messenger stared at Oro who was leaving, and a faint murderous intent flashed in his eyes. They learned a lot of information belonging to the mainland from these human betrayers and lurkers of the abyss, including the bearded human whom we know now.
If there is no other party's existence, the cultivation speed of the reincarnation tree will increase greatly, instead of just reaching the standard number now, and being prepared to send the powerful existence directly, the other party has actually investigated some clues belonging to the reincarnation tree.
Human betrayers often suffer great losses, so they acted very carefully and discovered Oro's traces in advance.
"Sir, should you join forces to kill him?"
"Who are you talking to? Are you commanding me again?" The Abyss Envoy showed a little anger. He was at least a high-level existence among humans. Who would he look down on? Even if the bodyguard is more powerful, he did not feel much threat in the other party!
"No... I'm very sorry, I just want to solve this problem more safely. You must know that we have acted against him before." The fallen man explained conscientiously.
The Abyss Messenger snorted coldly and stared at Oro and his group: "Look at them!"
Oro had hidden deep before and was not easy to solve, but this time he ran out rare, so he definitely couldn't let the other party go. Considering that the other party had shown amazing survival ability before, he was really ready to call people. Since he wanted to kill this guy, he had to do it a little bit and search for any ambush nearby.
After all, Oro's behavior does not rule out the possibility of fishing.
...
"Did you solve a person? This guy? Well, you can't take it lightly." After knowing who the target to be solved, the remaining Abyss messengers also had their ideas. After eliminating this guy, their actions on the mainland will be smoother. Oro's main task is to find the hidden power of the abyss on the mainland.
With the presence of the opponent, some of their actions will appear passive. The new tree of reincarnation is ready and has a higher amount than the budget. Therefore, this time, it can directly bring in a lot of high-end combat power. Although the combat power at the level of the Abyss City Lord will not be so much, they have special combat power support.
Now that reincarnation ritual is underway, they have all satisfied their curiosity and do not have to stare at things like the reincarnation tree. As for whether the information will be leaked after killing Oro, it depends on the situation and not giving the other party the opportunity to leak information. The abyss messengers coming to the mainland are all specific existences and have corresponding abilities to block some information.
"Then prepare to take action. If we solve him, our subsequent arrangements will be much more relaxed. At least we don't have to worry about the investigation team's interference in us for the time being."
When these abyss messengers discussed a simple plan to deal with Oro and found Oro again, they were very cautious. They searched the area around Oro. This range was very large. Among them, these abyss messengers were good at reconnaissance and perception, so they easily found some hidden ambushes.
"Hahaha, it's really a bait." An abyss messenger looked at the team that had been exposed to his vision. The other party was from the Holy Church, with unified high-level combat power, excellent equipment, guns, destiny magic weapons, etc., and all the weapons that are characteristic of the mainland. It can be said that they are armed to the teeth.
In addition to this ambush, there is also a hidden high-end power. It is a Saint. There is more than one such combination. Some of them can still use intelligence and are all members of the investigation team.
"Do you want to get rid of them?"
"These people are very sensitive. It is easy to expose our purpose when they do it rashly, and there is no need to solve them." The abyss creature who found the ambush sneered. Although they do not need to solve these ambushes, they can use other methods to confuse their perceptions. Although it will not take too long, it will not take long to solve Oro.
There are also a lot of information about Oro. Oro has a special "divine weapon" that fought against the Abyss Demons back then, called the Extreme Cold Embrace. Although that kind of thing can only make people's strength reach a higher level, that thing is not restricted by the user. If you bring it with you, it is higher level.
Think about it, in a battlefield, a group of ice casters who can release extremely cold powers to continuously output is also a terrible combination. What's more, ice-type forces are good at limiting and affecting terrain and have a great role in war.
But no matter how easy it is to use it, it is only high-level strength. Even if Oro's current strength has been improved and he can become more powerful when using the Extreme Cold Embrace, that kind of thing is ultimately a product of backwardness.
Another thing that is more troublesome is the bodyguard next to the other party. The other party has super defensive power. It is said that even the witch cannot break the other party's defense. When Oro was ambushed, Oro was seriously injured, and this bodyguard named Richard did not suffer much damage. He was simply a freak among humans.
Of course, there are so many humans, so it is normal for some special species to appear occasionally, just like the abyss creatures in the abyss, and occasionally some existences with extreme attributes will appear.
Although the abyss creature that could bear the flames of the Lord of the Volcano could not completely absorb that flame, the other party with his unique talent to withstand the damage caused by the flames. This is an exception.
A human with an extraordinary defense but insufficient offensive ability can easily lead it away. Another human named Virgil also has intelligence in the abyss. The opponent's attack method is special. According to the analysis of some experts, his attack special is mainly brought by the sword. If the knife can be restricted during the battle, the opponent will be a more powerful professional.
As for the caster in the team, it's not worth mentioning.
"So, let's do it."
"Do it!"
The invisible fluctuations swept through, and the members of Oro's investigation team did not notice the changes in the environment around them. This was not a mental impact, but a direct impact on the environment!
"Wait, something is wrong." Richard stared cautiously around: "I think we should go back."
"This... there are more and more clues to be found. Isn't it good to go back now?" The spellcaster in the team couldn't help asking. He was amazed at Oro's investigation ability. With a few clues, plus the support from the World Defense Association, they quickly found additional traces from the black and gray. The World Defense Association's support was also powerful.
After all, there is a dragon who is good at prophecy. Gratis, the second elder of the Dragon Clan, relied on prophecy to forcefully find subtle clues from the black and gray that should have been impossible to find. Although there are not many, it is enough for Oro. Although Oro does not like to cheat with prophecy when investigating some things.
Many things are like using prophecy, which is meaningless, but for the sake of the entire continent, he will not give up on the power of prophecy for the sake of the so-called persistence and rejection. To put it bluntly, if the mainland has serious problems due to his willfulness in this regard.
He can't afford this responsibility and does not want to take such responsibility.
The caster felt that he had investigated here. If he retreated now, many clues would be missed. After all, many clues are time-sensitive. After time, he found them, it may be garbage without any information.
"Hmph! I said retreat! Are you doubting my judgment?" Bodyguard Richard stared at the spellcaster, and the expression revealed in his eyes made the spellcaster feel very heavy pressure.
"No, I just think..."
"Don't think!" Richard's voice was low. Since Oro encountered an ambush last time and almost died, he was very guilty of this. If he was a normal warrior, then forget it. After all, he had done his best during the battle, but he was not a professional soldier, but a bodyguard similar to a guardian knight. The person who was protected almost died, which was his dereliction of duty.
So after Oro recovered, he took advantage of his spare time to conduct quite harsh training. Regarding the training of catching dangerous odors, this kind of training is very dangerous. Even if he has the ability to fully enhance his defense, there is a high probability of dying, let alone ordinary people.
People in his family have advised him for such training, but Richard still trained here...
"It feels good, but it's too late."
The sudden voice made Richard's face dark. Something really happened. His training was not completed. To put it bluntly, it was a special sixth sense training, not a kind of power that could be mastered in a short period of time.
Ripples rippled in the air, and an abyss messenger looked at Richard with interest, with a little amazement in his eyes. They had lowered their presence to the limit, but this human still felt abnormal. The maintenance of the protective posture could protect Oro from all aspects. Just observing in secret gave them a feeling that they could not start.
So they revealed their traces directly. There were a total of four abyss messengers who came here this time, and the rest knew about this, but they were responsible for the reincarnation tree.
"Abyss lurker?" The caster beside Oro immediately raised his hand and rubbed a magic. However, before the magic was formed, dense bloodstains appeared in his body. The unformed magic completely lost control, and the magic power flowed backwards, tearing his important organs from the inside of his body.
Such a way of death is quite miserable. Under the deliberate control of the Abyss messenger, the torn organ of the spellcaster is very important and deadly, but it is not deadly immediately. Otherwise, he could have completely destroyed his brain in an instant, and now the spellcaster can only scream here, with blood and internal organ fragments sprayed in his mouth.
His eyes were thorned into pieces by the anti-current magic power and left behind. The skin muscles were torn apart. As he struggled, the bones also emerged from under the muscles. In this struggle, a skeleton slowly squeezed out of the broken flesh and blood...
"..." Oro's expression was heavy, and he put away his pipe. At this time, he knew that no matter what he did, he could not save him. If he moved, he would fall into the trap of these abyss creatures. They were definitely not lurkers in the abyss. They were waiting for Oro and his bodyguard to reveal their flaws.
As long as one of them makes a strange move and breaks Richard's current protection of him, then in that moment, he will be subjected to a devastating blow, from one person to two deaths.
"The abyss means are really rich... No, it should be said to be the legacy of Cromia, the mother of the evil god?" Oro replaced himself with a normal cigarette, lit it, and after taking a sip, the cigarette was bounced and fell on the minced meat that was still twitching nerves and completely squeezed out the bones.
The caster's corpse burned with light blue flames.
"So smart. Just by investigating such a little information, you can confirm these things."
"Not it, it's just a bold guess. When the mother of the Evil God smuggled into the mainland, she used a unique way, so I made a bold association."
"Then this association is really bold, but the act of delaying time is meaningless." said an abyss messenger, holding his arms, looking at a watch on his wrist: "We can chat at least for three hours now, I'm not in a hurry, and can your bodyguard last for that long?"
Richard maintained a guardian state without dead corners, but this state was not consumed. Even if he could hold on, his energy could not hold on. The combat power of the four Abyss City Lord level brought him great pressure.
"Or it's the one you're counting on to your teammate? How many people can your bodyguard protect?"
