…
The atmosphere gradually became heavy.
Facing Roger's question.
Cindy was silent for a long time.
Then he responded with a sense of loss:
"I have no idea."
"My memory is still incomplete. I can feel that part of the knowledge from my bloodline is still covered up."
"Your inference is very likely to be the truth..."
"But until the day comes when the real truth comes out."
"It's all just meaningless speculation."
Roger nodded.
In a sense, Cindy's response was not much different from his current state of mind.
Even though he had many speculations about the matter of time travel.
But before getting to the truth.
There is really no benefit in speculating too much.
only.
Roger's intuition told him:
Cindy must have a deep connection with that alchemy game.
Maybe as long as he finds the remains of Red Valley.
Many shocking truths will be revealed.
But the other side of his perception of authority told him another thing.
The truth may be something that is hard to accept.
Any exposure to information related to Red Valley Alchemy is likely to bring him bad luck.
These two possibilities form a huge contradiction in perception.
They were like two little men fighting madly in Roger's mind.
Fight until later.
Roger thought of the word Red Valley.
He will have a severe headache!
This was the first time this situation had occurred since he gained control of the power of perception.
It can be seen that there are indeed many strange things about Cindy's life experience.
Now.
They both pondered for a while.
After a moment.
It was Cindy who took the initiative to stop thinking.
She whispered:
"There are more than just the remains of the Red Valley deep within this continent."
"There is also a power active from a higher star orbit."
"I am still unsure of the nature of its power, but it is very similar to that of some ethnic groups in Yggdrasil."
Yggdrasil?
Roger's heart moved.
Isn’t that the only seedling of the third star track?
It is also the planet where the Asgard is located!
"Could it be that Asgardian traitor?"
Reminiscent of Hediwala's commission.
Roger just felt his shoulders getting heavier.
For a while.
He felt as if he had become a lonely boat caught in two rapids.
There was a powerful force quietly guiding him towards the depths of the continent;
But deep in his heart, there was a voice that kept warning him:
It's very dangerous there.
Stay away from it all!
Roger didn't understand what other power above the binary stars could threaten him.
But he never underestimates any potential opponent.
therefore.
Deep inside he was in a rare struggle.
Cindy next to him seemed to notice his hesitation.
Then he said softly to comfort her:
"It doesn't matter if you don't go."
"We have another plan. We just need to find an evil person who is strong enough. As for the process of tricking him into becoming the master of the scavenger, you can just treat it as the process of execution..."
"My power cannot maintain the second form for a long time, but I will help my childhood self deal with the affairs of the White Cat Authority in the dark , please rest assured."
"That's it for now. Goodbye, Roger!"
After saying.
Her figure slowly disappeared.
Instead.
It is a chubby little elf with a confused look on his face.
Roger pinched its cheek calmly.
Then he turned and left with her.
…
The resurrection of Cindy's second form was just a minor episode for Roger.
The information she provided was important.
But it cannot influence Roger's current decision.
About Baiya.
He has always been more of a believer.
Even if there is a projection of a big villain like the Eternal Snake behind this incident.
Roger would not easily doubt his allies.
so.
Pine Plains.
He will definitely go.
And a week's time.
It was enough for him to do a lot of things.
For example.
Decide whether to thoroughly investigate the clue of "Red Valley Alchemist";
For example.
Whether to take advantage of the situation and get involved in tracking down the Asgardian traitor.
And of course the most important thing.
First, let’s brush up on a wave of Star Protoss!
For Roger.
This is the most practical task.
It's much better than just sitting there and daydreaming.
So he is very motivated to put it into practice.
That night.
Roger used the information scroll to successfully copy a character with almost 1/10 of the skill library of Hunter Sophia.
As for the appearance and smell.
Naturally, it is 100% identical to Sofia.
Under the cover of night.
Roger attacked decisively.
This is different from Sofia who always chooses to attack the strong ones among the star gods.
However, Roger chose to attack the weak ones among the Star Gods with a heavy blow.
After all, it's in the algorithm of sin marking.
There is no essential difference between strong and weak.
Killing a star god only increases the health points a little.
Roger certainly wouldn't make his job more difficult.
That night.
He was firing on all cylinders.
The Star God Clan near the Ice Dragon Canyon was in a panic after being killed.
The large force that White Cat was in was ordered to retreat to the plain 10 kilometers below the foot of the mountain and station there.
daytime.
Roger followed the White Cat God in a low profile and mingled among the large group.
He obeyed his superiors' orders very loyally.
It was discovered that the 'God Hunter' suddenly did not act according to the previous rules.
The exasperated Star Gods intensified their search efforts.
The entire Ice Dragon Canyon is almost filled with totem arrays and starry sky eyes.
But I just can't find Sophia!
This also surprised Roger.
So the second night and the third night.
He increased the force of his brushing.
Especially the third night.
He was at full throttle at one point.
One time, the monster was lured in and almost brought together about 20,000 Star Gods.
Even though they are all the lowest level "God's Blood".
But it also caused him some trouble.
Fortunately, Roger is more skilled.
After killing 1/3 of the "Blood of God".
He walked away.
Not a trace was left.
then.
Daytime of the fourth day.
The star gods came out in full force.
The last less than 1/20 of the uncovered space in the Ice Dragon Canyon was also filled up.
This time.
Forget Sophia.
Roger didn't dare to act rashly.
The Star God Clan's surveillance network is not just for show.
On the first three nights, he took the initiative to avoid those places and committed the crimes by force.
In terms of efficiency.
It's just so-so.
I kept brushing for three days, risking being discovered.
The progress bar has only risen to 1/10.
I can only say that the road to increasing health points is still very long!
Roger still needs to work hard!
certainly.
When Roger was checking the progress bar, he had another thought in his mind:
"If I have the Zero Knife in my hand..."
"Now it's done!"
Although Roger does his own ideological work every day.
But the Zero Knife has always been the artifact that he has been longing for.
In addition, three days of impersonating and killing people in succession failed to lure out Sophia who was hiding in the dark.
Roger finally decided to change his mindset——
"If we continue like this, chasing after the people of the Star God Clan and killing them is not a solution."
"Sophia is very patient."
"It would be bad if the Star Gods were forced into a corner and used their ultimate skill on me."
"Looks like I have to visit the God Hunters tonight!"
Think of this.
He couldn't help but glance at the data column.
…
"Fragrance (Ambergris Special Effect): The coordinates of the fragrance have been analyzed... Ice Dragon Canyon XXX.YYY.ZZZ!"
…
"Ultimate Hunter: Do you want to start tracking?"
…
Activating the Ultimate Hunter means greatly increasing the possibility of the "Leaving Fragrance" backup plan being discovered.
Under the premise that Roger would never teleport there rashly.
This might give Sofia a chance to fight back.
But the situation did not allow Roger to hesitate any longer.
It was dusk on the fourth day and it was not yet night.
He followed the Ultimate Hunter's senses and arrived at a low-lying pool of water in the Ice Dragon Canyon.
There is a waterfall over the pool.
With the help of elevated perception.
Roger successfully found a very hidden cave entrance behind the waterfall!
This cave is extremely deep.
Roger used his heavenly vision and earthly hearing to sense it.
I found that there is only one one-way exit here!
And in the deepest part of the cave.
There is indeed a living being that is very slowly recovering its physical strength and energy.
Her heartbeat was so slow that it was almost unnoticeable.
Traces of body temperature and breath were also wiped out very well.
"No wonder the people from the Star God Clan couldn't find her!"
Roger nodded secretly.
In fact.
If he didn't have the strange fragrance to guide him.
It's impossible to find such a disgusting place!
Wandered at the cave entrance for a while.
Roger was about to go in.
But he stopped again.
…
"It stands to reason that a cunning rabbit has three burrows. Even if this place is very hidden, she should have left herself a way out..."
"Is there a trick?"
Roger hid outside the cave.
I was filled with doubt and uncertainty.
There was another factor that prevented him from breaking in decisively.
That is the purpose of the God Clan!
These days.
Roger thought deeply about Sophia's purpose in coming here to stir up trouble.
Just judging from her behavior.
It looked just like the behavior of young people seeking revenge for a family feud.
But Roger didn't believe that the gods would really allow such a talented hunter to carry out meaningless killings.
Considering that Beiya mentioned the "God-Slaughtering Day Festival" of the Celestial Gods.
Roger always felt that there must be a deeper story behind Sophia's appearance in the Ice Dragon Canyon.
There is a hidden story.
This means there is a high probability of a trap.
"Maybe she didn't come to Ice Dragon Canyon alone."
"Perhaps the killing spree is just a cover-up for something..."
Roger guessed secretly in his heart.
Now.
He lay patiently at the entrance of the cave.
Use the power of sight, hearing, and perception to explore again and again.
As for the wolf cubs.
He had even sent them out early to collect information.
In less than 20 minutes.
New information appeared on the data column.
…
"The Slanderous Wolf: Updated with new information on the hidden cave!"
…
"Your followers have discovered that there are 16 extremely dangerous traps and barriers in the upper part of the secret cave. These traps and barriers are enough to bury most careless thieves or assassins.
…
And near the cave entrance.
A group of imperceptible 'Ether worms' are active!
They are the stealthiest of reconnaissance guards.
Once an outsider approaches.
The owner deep in the cave will discover the abnormality first!
…
In the middle of the hidden cave.
The seemingly single channel was randomly moved to 99 space-time cracks.
These space-time cracks point to different space-time turbulences.
Anyone who gets involved in it.
In the next second, you may appear in places such as purgatory, abyss, starry sky, sea of ​​ruins, etc.!
warn!
These space-time rifts are extremely dangerous.
And uncontrollable.
At the same time, there is a tendency to spread to all directions!
…
The lower part of the secret cave cannot be surveyed! 」
…
Sure enough, there was a trap.
And more than one place!
Roger sneered.
But the next second.
He realized something was wrong.
"Such a complicated channel trap design..."
"And it's clearly displayed right under the noses of the Star God Clan?"
"Aren't you worried that people won't be able to find you?"
In an instant.
Roger flashed away.
Until his figure appeared above the pool of water and the waterfall.
After staring carefully below for dozens of seconds.
A new red light appeared in his vision!
…
"Hint: You found 'Semi-artifact: Claustrophobic Cave'"
…
"Cloustrophe: a portable cave dwelling.
You can freely design the levels and traps inside the cave.
Highly concealed and adaptable.
You can blend into the environment at any time so as not to be discovered by anyone..."
…
Another semi-artifact!
Roger couldn't help biting his lip.
Is this rich young lady from the God Clan engaged in wholesale of semi-divine artifacts?
Including the zeroing knife.
This is the third semi-artifact Roger has seen on her!
Although the appearance of this thing further strengthened Roger's intention to rob the rich and help the poor.
But the semi-artifact is here.
He didn't dare to act recklessly.
Now.
Roger pushed one kilometer away with great forbearance.
I found a place and started "hiding".
He wants to guard Sophia's cave!
"I don't believe you can keep your composure!"
With this thought in mind.
Roger began the boring squatting operation.
He originally thought.
With the patience and composure Sophia had shown before.
I'm afraid I'll have to wait for a long time before I can catch her.
But who knows what will happen in the second half of this night.
There was a slight noise coming from deep in the cave!
3 minutes later.
A nimble figure leaped out from the waterfall.
Under the moonlight.
She cautiously checked the surrounding environment.
After confirming that there is no danger.
She quickly erased the traces of her walking.
And then melted into the night!
One kilometer away.
Roger held his breath.
Followed calmly.
…
After leaving the cave.
Sophia didn't go far.
She quickly arrived at a very shallow valley in the western part of Ice Dragon Canyon.
Entrance to the valley.
A tall dark figure was waiting for her.
The moment I saw her.
The dark shadow asked coldly:
"Are you here? Where are they?"
Sophia said calmly:
"Right behind me!"
Next second.
The two of them almost simultaneously launched a surprise attack on Roger's hiding place less than 300 meters behind Sofia!
whoosh!
Several flashes of lightning streaked across the night sky.
The air froze at that moment.
But it quickly returned to normal afterwards.
Under a giant dead banyan tree.
The dark shadow looked indifferently at the dark shadows scattered on the ground.
Then he slowly put down the knife in his hand:
“He’s very cautious.”
"What came was just a projection."
"I killed him."
Dozens of meters away.
Sophia frowned.
Although I killed that perverted projection.
But she always had an uncomfortable feeling in her heart.
It's hard to describe that feeling.
It was as if something had gone away from her...
"etc!"
Sophia woke up suddenly.
She subconsciously touched her waist.
Next second.
A scream exploded in the shallow valley:
"Where's my knife?!"
The shadow was stunned when he asked.
In an instant.
The two looked around.
But I saw it on the hillside not far away.
A figure is running at full speed!
He was about to run away and disappeared!
"Chase!"
The shadow finished.
The whole person disappeared on the spot.
Sophia also gritted her teeth and followed!
…
