"You want me to watch over it?" Li Huailin was taken aback.
"Don't worry." Upon seeing Li Huailin's surprised expression, Issac thought that Li Huailin was worried that he wouldn't be able to do it well. "You know that there's a defensive enchantment here. If anyone wants to enter, they have to destroy the enchantment. Of course, I'll be able to sense it and rush back immediately. I'm asking you to stay here just in case. Besides, these tasks will be yours in the future, so you can practice it now. There won't be any problems. "
After pondering for a while, Issac continued. "Although it's an emergency meeting, I estimate that it'll only take a day. You just have to help me look after it for a day. There shouldn't be any problems, right?"
System Notification: Issac has issued a B-rank Hidden Mission: Defensive Enchantment. Do you accept?
Looking at the mission's difficulty, Li Huailin knew that it wasn't a difficult mission. A B-rank Hidden Mission shouldn't be difficult. There shouldn't be any infiltration time. Perhaps it was because the mission duration was slightly longer, so it was B-rank. Li Huailin thought for a moment and accepted the mission.
System Notification: B-rank Hidden Mission accepted. Defensive Enchantment.
Mission Hint: Help Issac watch over the sealing enchantment until he returns.
Mission Reward: 800000 experience, 10 gold coins, 300 Reputation Points.
"I see. I understand." Li Huailin nodded and said. "But when?"
"I'll set off tomorrow. Come here at 8 in the morning and help me watch over this place. I'll probably be back tomorrow night." Issac thought for a moment and said.
"Tomorrow?" Li Huailin nodded slightly. "Alright, I'll come tomorrow morning."
Given the current situation, how could Li Huailin have the time to complete this B-rank mission? There weren't any benefits at all. The reason why Li Huailin agreed to this mission was simple. Of course, it was to embezzle.
Only now did he know that it was not easy to summon the Jade Emperor here. He could just teleport himself in, but he could not summon the Jade Emperor. He probably had to pass through some kind of defensive barrier to enter. He had to make a good plan. He didn't expect that Ishak would be going out and he would be the only one left. Of course, that was the best case scenario.
"Just how big is this defensive barrier?" Li Huailin began to inquire about the situation of the defensive barrier. Of course, Isak wouldn't be suspicious. After all, Li Huailin seemed to be familiarizing himself with the work and seemed to be very serious.
"The entire valley is within the range of the defensive barrier. Of course, that includes the sky. Moreover, you can't see what's going on inside the barrier from above." "Generally speaking, there are only two ways for someone to invade. One is the southern entrance, which is the only entrance on the ground, and the other is the air."
"The south entrance is the one we passed through before, right?" Li Huailin said. The last time they went to the headquarters, they went through that entrance.
"Yes." Ishak nodded. "Of course, there are camouflage spells over there. Ordinary people won't be able to enter at all."
"Is the defensive barrier reliable?" Li Huailin immediately asked. "Didn't you say that someone came in without triggering the barrier?"
"Don't worry, this defensive barrier isn't an ordinary one. Ordinary mages can't break through it." Ishak immediately said. "I've only encountered such a situation once in my life. Do you think you're that lucky? I don't believe it. Generally speaking, if someone wants to invade this place, they can only break the defensive barrier by force. Of course, the strength of this barrier is also very high. Basically, it should be able to hold on for one or two hours. It should be enough for me to rush back. "
"If someone stealthily sneaks into the inside, will they destroy the barrier from the inside?" Li Huailin asked carefully.
"Hmm … That's still possible." Ishak said while walking in a certain direction. Of course, Li Huailin immediately followed. After walking for a while, the two came to the side of a huge stone pillar. It was a huge black stone pillar, about a meter in diameter and a dozen meters in height. The stone pillar was engraved with dense and strange characters, which were probably engravings of magic arrays.
Ishak pointed to the stone pillar and said: "This is the core of the defensive barrier. As you can see, there are more than a dozen magic crystals providing energy, which can defend against most attacks. But this is also the weakest part of the barrier. Once it is attacked, the barrier may break, and then it will be dangerous. So you see, that's my hut. I live there. "
Li Huailin looked to the side and there was indeed a small house made of stone. It was the kind that was less than 20 square meters in size. Just looking at it made Li Huailin feel aggrieved. How could Li Huailin live in it for the rest of his life? No wonder Ishak was dumbfounded.
"If someone really invades, the first thing you have to protect is this place, because there definitely aren't many people who can directly break through the barrier. But once this place is destroyed, more enemies may enter. Of course, it's too early to tell you this. It's impossible to be so coincidental, so you don't have to worry about it." Ishak said with a smile, thinking that Li Huailin was overthinking.
"I see." The corners of Li Huailin's mouth curled up slightly. After going around in circles, he finally heard what he wanted.
"Are there any other questions?" Ishak asked.
"There really is a question." Li Huailin thought for a moment and asked, "What is the attitude of the Divine Sword Guardians towards the invitation of the continent's emperor?"
Yes, this matter could be considered related to him. He could provoke a large group of fierce people at any time, so Li Huailin had to be prepared.
"It's impossible for us to join that guy's team." Ishak immediately said. "The Divine Sword Guardians have always been a hidden organization since its establishment. We don't participate in any activities on the continent. Our mission is to protect the Divine Sword. Now that the continent's emperor wants us to join him, I guess he's greedy for the Divine Sword …"
"You're right." Li Huailin nodded. Yes, he's coveting the Divine Sword in your hands.
"Of course, it's impossible for us to join," Ishak continued. "But … I heard that it's a little difficult. After all, even the Church of Light, which originally wouldn't join, bowed down to him. It seems that the continent's emperor is really not ordinary. In addition to the six major countries, it seems like he's really going to unify the continent. And it's said that … even the Saint-class Alliance has bowed down to him. "
"Not only have they bowed down, they've been torn apart." Li Huailin said in his heart.
"But we definitely won't join him. This time, we're discussing how to deal with the other party's censure …" Ishak frowned. "Huailin, you've been active outside. Have you heard of this continent's emperor? What's his influence like? "
"I've heard of him," Li Huailin said. "But I heard that he's a good person."
"Good person?" Ishak was slightly stunned.
"Yes, ask anyone on the streets what kind of person the continent's emperor is, and 90% of them will say that he's a good person," Li Huailin said. This was really not a joke.
"Hmm … I see." Ishak nodded. "Then I hope he won't make things difficult for us. No matter what, it's impossible for us to hand over the Divine Sword."
"Oh, I see." Li Huailin nodded.
At least he understood the attitude of the Guardian of the Divine Sword, and Li Huailin was a little prepared. In fact, Li Huailin really didn't have the time to deal with them. Of course, it would be best if he could join them, but now it seemed like it would be a little troublesome. They regarded the Divine Sword as more important than their own lives. If he wanted to obtain the Divine Sword, he would probably have to kill them. No matter how high their Favorability was, it would be useless.
"Oh yes, where's the southern exit?" Li Huailin asked after some thought. "I'm sorry, I didn't pay attention the last time I went out, and I've already forgotten where to go. This time, I'll definitely take a good look. You know that this badge has a very long cooldown. Tomorrow, I can only come through the entrance. So I have to take a good look now, or else I won't be able to come tomorrow. "
"Isn't this because you used the Teleportation Badge for no reason? And you just want to do a mission, right?" Ishak shouted.
"Do a mission?" Li Huailin was slightly taken aback.
"Didn't you just say that this place is closer, so you teleported here? Are you in a hurry to get to the mission location from the south?" Ishak's expression seemed to be saying that he understood what Sheyan was thinking.
"Uh …" To be honest, Li Huailin had forgotten what he had just made up. He immediately said, "You've been discovered. The older you get, the more cunning you become."
"Watch your words!" Ishak could not help but shout. "Alright, alright. You adventurers have nothing better to do all day long. Come, follow me."
Ishak obviously had a sharp tongue but a soft heart. Facing a junior like Li Huailin who could be trusted, Ishak only said a few words. After saying that, Ishak brought Li Huailin to the southern exit. At this point, Li Huailin had a rough idea of the place. As long as he remembered the way here, he would be able to bring the Divine Sword over tomorrow.
"Remember the way. There's a disguise outside. Don't go the wrong way tomorrow," Ishak reminded. "At eight, I'll come here to open the barrier for you. Don't forget!"
"Alright, I understand." Li Huailin nodded.
