“Could it be that my whereabouts have been exposed? How could it be such a coincidence otherwise?”
As Noland Lee pondered the possibility of his cover being blown, he followed the troops into the tunnel leading to the prison cell.
The coal lamps hanging on the walls emitted a dim flame, illuminating the square walls made of stone bricks. A thick layer of dust coated the floor of the tunnel, and bullet marks were clearly visible on the walls. It seemed that battles had taken place in the Empire’s narrow pass.
The accompanying soldiers began to converse.
“We have to cooperate with the Second Place again to catch spies… Ugh, it happens every two or three days.”
“I don’t understand why the higher-ups sealed the fortress? In the past, when we caught spies, didn’t we just check their names and identities?”
“I estimate that the entire border defense line in the east must be on high alert.
For the Death Notice spies to leave the Boundary Land, they’d have to cross the Blade Mountain Range and take boats back to the Empire from the Golden Federation’s illegal crossing. Such incidents have happened quite a few times. Haven’t those famous senior members of the Death Herald Guild done it like this before?”
“The people of the Death Herald Guild really have some skills, just flipping over such hizh mountain ranqes like that.”
“Hey, be careful not to let the Second Place hear you say that, or you will suffer. But don’t think the Death Herald Guild people are too amazing either. The price they paid for forcibly crossing the mountains is huge. I heard that they must first use magic to turn themselves into Skeleton Warriors, and then jump off the clifftop. After reaching the ground, they find their heads, arms, and thighs, and put them back together. If they’re missing a few bones, then transforming back into human form is painful, half dead, and could even be
fatal. ”
“Tsk, what do the Death Herald Guild people want by going through all this trouble?”
“What else can they want? Of course, it’s to bring important magical items back with them. I’ve heard that the thing that led to the fall of the Korabo Corps Fortress is a genuine magic wand. Don’t you think the Death Herald Guild would want to bring it back?”
One of the soldiers praised:
“Wow, mate, I never thought you’d know so much.”
Noland Lee also thought that the talkative soldier knew too much. Unconsciously, he glanced over and then froze.
It was because that soldier was looking at him with a deep gaze, a faint smile playing at the corner of his mouth:
“Hehe, of course, I know more, much more than all of you combined. Don’t you think so, Private Second Class Isa?”
Noland Lee’s heart trembled.
Just as he was about to create confusion and flee the scene, he was suddenly struck by a transparent lightning.
Invisible heavy pressure came from all directions, pinning him firmly in place.
[Warning!]
[You are affected by the “Unknown Magical Effect” and are rendered unable to move!]
[System Reminder:]
[“Magic Shield” can effectively block this magical effect!]
In Noland Lee’s mind, he outlined the casting blueprint of the “Magic Shield” spell.
“Crack, crack, crack.”
Three crisp sounds came from his body.
The “Magic Shield” blocked the immobilizing magical effect.
The heavy pressure on his body subsided significantly.
Noland Lee twisted his body forcefully, breaking free from the pressure, and turned to run back down the tunnel they had come from.
The casting soldier looked surprised:
“Huh? Interesting. You can actually cast a ‘Magic Shield’, breaking free of my
‘Paralysis Spell’. You’re indeed not Isa! Who are you?”
The other soldiers and Sin Soldiers were confused by the scene before them, not knowing what had just happened.
A few soldiers were about to chat with the casting soldier when they saw him raise his hand toward them, flicking his fingertips several times, releasing a series of transparent lightning.
The soldiers and Sin Soldiers were struck by the transparent lightning on their brows, their eyes becoming empty and their expressions dazed, standing rigidly in place.
The casting soldier flicked his wrist, pointed at Noland Lee’s retreating figure, and calmly uttered a single word:
“Freeze.”
An even greater pressure fell upon Noland Lee’s head than before.
He continuously cast several “Magic Shields” but couldn’t counter the pressure on his body, and was forced to hold still.
The casting soldier slowly walked past the transfixed soldiers and Sin Soldiers
“Your disguise is very convincing, mysterious wizard. But my understanding of your team is better. I know the habits and details of each one of you, including the ‘Isa’ you disguised yourself as. Perhaps you haven’t realized that from the moment you appeared before me, I have found many flaws in you…” He lifted his right hand and pinched Noland Lee’s face a few times:S earch newn0vel( 0rg) on g00gle
“Oh- you didn’t use a makeup technique to change your appearance. I can feel very slight energy fluctuations on your skin. Your control over the disguise spell is quite good, being able to compress the energy fluctuations on the skin surface and not letting it dissipate. No wonder I didn’t notice the energy fluctuations on you until now… Let me remove your disguise.”
The man’s fingertips rubbed Noland Lee’s forehead a few times, sprinkling a layer of hazy fumes.
A chill emerged on Noland Lee’s skin.
His brows furrowed as he couldn’t move but still noticed the change in his body.
He knew that he had changed from Isa’s appearance back to his original form and was forced to return to his normal size. The system sent a warning message at the same time.
