The moment the scout guard disappeared, Nick felt it.
He didn't answer Law right away, but stared at the position where the scout guard disappeared with a strange look on his face.
After a while, he explained: "For a moment, I felt like I was being peeped."
At this time, everyone's eyes were focused on Nick.
"Peeped?"
Law frowned and looked at the place where Nick was looking, it was a bush.
Immediately, he subconsciously wanted to use Sphere to cover the bush, but the next second he sighed.
He forgot that with the current degree of opening, it was difficult to use a more difficult telekinesis skill like Sphere.
In desperation, he turned to look at Dong Ba, the latter understood and shook his head: "There is no situation, before we came here and after we came here, there has been no movement in the bush."
Dong Ba's ability was always in the active state, in order to increase the duration, he would shrink the range, and in his ability perception, the bush only about 60 meters away did not move.
Law nodded, then looked at Nick and asked: "Just a feeling?"
Nick hesitated for a moment and nodded: "Yes, but I am very sensitive in this regard."
"I know, so I haven't made a conclusion yet." Law said.
For some reason, when he heard Law say that, Nick had a comfortable feeling of being surrounded by [Trust].
In fact, if one had to choose between Dong Ba and Nick's ability and statement, they would basically choose Dong Ba.
However, Law knew what kind of ability Nick's [Invisible Things] was, so he reserved some room for Nick's feelings.
"Let's go and see."
Law walked towards the bush, and everyone followed.
After a careful inspection, they didn't even find a bug, just a common bush that could be seen everywhere.
All the possibilities were inclined to Dong Ba's conclusion that there was no situation.
Nick stood in front of the bush, his eyes locked on a position.
That was where the scout guard was, but now there was nothing.
"Is it an illusion?"
Nick frowned.
It should have been a fact that had been completely concluded, but he always felt that it was wrong.
But the fact was, he couldn't rely on his feelings to convince himself.
"I'm sorry, it should be my illusion." Thinking of this, Nick apologized.
Biscay and the others didn't say anything and assumed that it was just Nick's imagination.
After all, in this short week of exploring the forest, Dong Ba's detection ability had already been recognized by White and the others. As for Nick … well, his ability to find fresh grass was top-notch.
Law looked at Nick and said, "Should?"
Nick was stunned for a moment. When he came to his senses, he smiled sheepishly. "It was a slip of the tongue. That was definitely my misconception."
Law was silent for a long time and said seriously: "Even if the conclusion has come out, you still insist on your judgment in your heart?"
"…"
The corner of Nick's mouth twitched a few times. He wasn't the kind of person who liked to get into a dead end. Wrong was wrong, right was right.
However, the feeling of being peeped at was definitely there.
However, the reality before his eyes made him question his feelings at that moment.
"Facts speak louder than words."
His tone sounded weak.
Law patted Nick's shoulder and didn't answer the question. "I've always thought that your mind is very interesting, and there are many types of monitoring mind beasts. Just like your invisible things, you can set the mind beast used during 'monitoring' to have an invisible attribute."
"Then, there may also be types that can set the attribute to be undetectable."
Nick's eyes narrowed slightly. If there was such a possibility …
"I'm not saying this to refute the result of Dong Ba's detection for you, but I think that your 'feeling' is worth verifying."
Lawl paused for a moment before he continued, "So, do you choose 'truth' or 'feeling'?"
Listening to Law's words, Nick's doubts about himself in his heart disappeared instantly.
He looked at Law and grinned. He didn't know why he smiled.
Then, he replied firmly, "Feeling."
Whether the result was right or wrong, it was not a bad thing to have confidence.
Law nodded and immediately looked at the crowd. He said calmly, "From now on, we have to assume that there is something spying on us. Please note that it is an assumption."
"It's a bit superfluous." White shook his pipe.
"I don't deny it, but it's the same principle as always being vigilant." Law said.
"Okay."
Senior White shrugged and didn't speak any further.
After that, the team did not continue to stay. They left the edge of the forest and headed for the mountains.
Regardless of whether there was an area worth exploring or not, Law would only cultivate again and again, compressing the time of unsealing again and again.
After they left for a while, the bushes had been calm and there was no change.
Night fell.
They took out a white eagle's nest on one of the hilltops, and the eagle eggs and eagle meat in the nest became tonight's dinner.
In a situation where they could obtain food locally, the team basically would not waste the supplies stored in the fourth-dimensional apartment.
If conditions permitted, they would also make salted jerky from the hunted prey that had been stored for a long time.
After dinner, Law went to a boulder on the hilltop and prepared to continue his cultivation.
Miss Cookie had to be on the spot to assist Law in his cultivation, so Biscay was also there.
"Why did you deliberately 'comfort' Nick in the evening? We are not children on a spring outing." Biscay lay on the cold stone and looked at the bright stars in the night sky.
Law sat cross-legged, looked at Biscay and said, "I'm not comforting him."
"Is that so?"
"You know Nick's ability."
"Well, but the truth is more trustworthy than the feeling."
"You're right." Law smiled and did not want to continue on this topic.
Biscay shook her head slightly. She also mentioned it casually.
"Law, if someone is really spying on our movements, what kind of existence would it be?"
"I don't know."
.....
Imaginary continent, south.
The wall-like Great Wall lay across the earth.
On the empty land inside the wall, there was a towering tree that reached into the sky.
The canopy was lush, and a large wooden house was built on the thick branches, like a lookout.
In the house, a humanoid creature about four meters tall sat at a wooden table.
There was a rimless mirror about fifty centimeters in diameter on the table. At this moment, a red figure was reflected in the mirror, and the humanoid creature sitting in front of the mirror was blue.
"The clan is making a lot of noise about the change of the 'rules'."
A deep voice came from the mirror, and the language used was not available in the six continents.
"Is it because of that?" The blue figure said in a deep voice.
