The silent man glared at Reina, his eyes carrying a trace of killing intent. Reina looked at him without fear, then snapped her fingers. Suddenly, balls of red flames appeared around the two of them, and the four hurriedly took a step back.
"A magus! She's also a magus! "
The bow-wielding bear hunter said in surprise. His eyes were wide open, as if he had seen something strange.
"Fire magic. Although it's still lacking a bit of maturity, it's already quite powerful. Little girl, when did you start learning magic?"
The shifty-eyed Guruwa asked.
Reina half-heartedly replied, "Three years old. Since you don't know how to get to the Wussen Empire, then I won't disturb you any longer. Goodbye."
After saying this, she turned to leave. The four looked at her, as if they wanted to say something, but stopped.
Suddenly, Guruwa walked in front of her and said, "Although we don't know where the entrance to the Wussen Empire is, we've already thought of a way to get in. If you want to go through that tunnel, then I suggest that you don't waste your energy. The powerful barrier magic has cut off all methods of entry. Unless they come out and take you in, no one will be able to enter the Wussen Empire."
Reina stopped in her tracks. She knew that the other party wasn't lying. She was also having a headache over this.
"What method?"
She turned around and asked. Hearing this, the four looked at each other.
"Unless you agree to cooperate with us, we won't tell you."
The silent man said in a low voice. It seemed like he was the boss.
"We need manpower. Please forgive us."
The bow-wielding bear hunter shrugged, but there was no apology on his face.
Reina pondered for a moment. She sized up the four of them. If they were to fight, they definitely wouldn't be a match for her.
"Based on your method, when can I go in?"
Hearing this, the four of them seemed to let out a sigh of relief, and their expressions relaxed quite a bit.
"Well, we can't say for sure. Maybe tomorrow, maybe next month, but I can guarantee that as long as the plan succeeds, we'll be able to go in. Do you agree to cooperate with us?"
The bear hunter asked.
Reina took a deep breath.
"Let me think about it. It would be better if you could tell me your plan."
Hearing this, the bear hunters looked at their boss, the man of few words. His eyes were as sharp as a knife. Reina still didn't know who he was, but he was definitely not a good person. She noticed a wound on his right hand that looked like a crack. It was definitely not a normal wound.
He nodded and turned around to look at Baglik. The latter seemed to understand what he was trying to convey with his eyes. He then turned around and walked towards the ridge.
Then he glanced at Reina and pointed at the forest.
"The view here is wide, so we can observe every movement in the forest. Of course, this is only limited to winter. When you came out of New Stone, we have been watching you."
Reina looked back. Sure enough, their footprints could be seen. But so what? This could only mean that this place had a good geographical location.
"It is indeed very safe here, but what does that have to do with your plan?"
She asked in reply.
The bear hunter smiled and said, "I don't know if you've noticed, but there's not a single evil spirit around here, not even a shadow."
That was indeed the case.
"Has it been cleared by you?"
Reina looked at him.
The bear hunter smiled and shook his head. He looked at his feet awkwardly.
"A few are, but most are not."
Guruwa interrupted.
"It's the people of the Wussen Empire. They will wipe out all the evil spirits nearby."
"They will sweep the front of their house clean, hahaha."
The bear hunter laughed. Although Reina didn't know what he was laughing about, she roughly understood what they meant.
"As long as we know where they came from, then we can find the entrance."
She rubbed her chin and pondered.
"Not bad. As expected, magicians are very smart."
Guruwa nodded.
"That's not right."
But after thinking for a while, Reina frowned.
"What's not right?"
Reina thought of something. She didn't think that things would be so simple.
"They might have teleported out and not from an exit. Then it's useless for us to keep waiting."
"That is indeed a possibility, but we plan to set a trap …"
In his excitement, the bear hunter accidentally let it slip. But that taciturn man glared at him, and he shut his mouth.
"You want to capture one of them and force them to tell you how to enter the Wussen Empire? If you do this, aren't you afraid that the Wussen Empire will come after you? "
"Perhaps, but we believe that they will forgive us. We know that their leaders are very kind and empathize with the weak, so they will definitely understand our actions. I think that once you see them, you will definitely join us. Come with us."
The bear hunter gestured for Reina to follow them, and the three of them turned and walked away. Reina looked at Bai Ling behind her. She didn't want to reveal her identity.
"Let's go take a look."
As she spoke, she grabbed Bai Ling's hand and led her up the mountain.
Unexpectedly, there were quite a few people on the mountain ridge. In the messy camp, there were many Kalise refugees and merchants who had stayed behind. Most of them were sitting in the camp, their eyes filled with fatigue. The camp was mostly made of wood, and the merchants were sleeping in horseless carriages. Where did the horses go? When Reina saw the horse bones around the camp, she knew.
There was a lack of food here. Everyone looked at Reina, thinking that she had food on her.
Indeed, Reina had something to eat on her back. They had probably smelled it.
There were children and women in the camp. Bai Ling looked at them and bared her teeth.
Reina finally understood why they had said that the Wussen Empire would forgive their actions. It turned out that they had the support of these refugees. But the Wussen Empire didn't even let them in. Clearly, they planned to just stand by and watch. So how could they forgive them?
This wasn't something Linnai should be thinking about. She followed the three of them into the cave. This place was eerie and terrifying, so much so that not many people were willing to stay here. Only a few armed men were guarding this place.
Suddenly, a curse came from within. It was the muscular man who had left first, Baglik. His arm was injured, as if it had been clawed. He cursed as he walked out.
"These damned things aren't obedient at all. Alright, I've locked those up. You can bring her in now."
Hearing this, the three of them turned to look at Reina.
"Perhaps it's better to let the little girl stay outside. The things inside might scare her," Guruwa said.
Guruwa said, his gaze sweeping over Bai Ling from time to time. Linnai was somewhat dissatisfied with this.
"No, I don't plan on going in. We've already seen enough evil spirits."
Reina said.
With her spatial perception, she only needed to concentrate to know what was going on inside. There were two rows of wooden cages in the cave, with over ten evil spirits locked inside. Most likely, these four were planning on using these evil spirits to draw out the Wussen Empire's soldiers.
"Alright then. Since you've already guessed, how about it? What do you think? Do you plan on joining us? If you can help us, we'll carry out our plan tonight. The moon will definitely be very bright today. The Wussen Empire definitely won't be able to escape our sights. "
The bear hunter laughed as he asked.
Reina pondered for a moment. For now, she couldn't think of any other ideas, so she could only agree.
"Then let's give it a try."
