After spending 10 minutes checking Živkovychi's Spirit Sea, Connor shook his head with disappointment. He then collected everything on Živkovychi's body, including his interspatial ring. After that, Connor poured kerosene on Živkovychi's body and destroyed it.
Živkovychi didn't lie. Someone had indeed set up a restriction in his Spirit Sea. This restriction was different from any other restriction that Connor had seen before. The style of this restriction was completely different from the Kaman Restriction that Connor had learned.
Although Connor wasn't sure what this restriction was, based on his alchemy experience, Connor was sure that it was a restriction in Odin's style. It was used to restrict and monitor the Spirit Sea of the person who set it up. The wizard who set up this restriction in Živkovychi's Spirit Sea must be very skilled. Even Connor, who was a spiritual-type wizard, wasn't sure if he could break this restriction.
Moreover, even if Connor was lucky enough to break the Spirit Sea's restriction, Na Po wouldn't be able to do it in a short period of time. Now that Zhivkovic was dead, his Spirit Sea could only last for half an hour. After half an hour, his Spirit Sea would completely dissipate. Therefore, in terms of time, it was almost impossible for Connor to break the restriction in his Spirit Sea.
Also, because the restriction in Živkovychi's Spirit Sea was Odin's style, Connor wasn't very familiar with it. Therefore, Connor wasn't sure if the person who set up the restriction would be able to sense it if he tried to break it like Živkovychi said.
However, judging from Connor's proficiency in setting up the restriction in his Spirit Sea, Connor was willing to believe Živkovychi's words. If that was the case, there was a risk that he would be tracked down. Therefore, Connor decided to send Živkovychi on his last journey.
After dealing with Živkovychi's corpse, Connor cleaned up the traces of his battle with Živkovychi. After doing that, Connor quietly left the wooden fort, leaving behind the raging fire.
Five hours after Connor left, a bearded man and another bearded man accompanied each other to the wooden stronghold in Kuit Canyon. At this time, all the Golovin tribesmen had already left the wooden stronghold, leaving behind only the aftermath of the fire.
Although the two who came to the wooden fort were wearing ordinary clothes and looked like two ordinary middle-aged men of the Odin Empire, if one paid careful attention, they would notice that although they were concealing it very well, they were still faintly emitting the energy fluctuations of official Wizards.
Looking at the burnt wooden fort, the bald man seemed to have discovered something. He found some ashes in a corner of the wooden stronghold and studied them for a while. He then turned to the bearded middle-aged man behind him and said in a deep voice, "Jacob, this fire is man-made. The culprit seems to be an alchemist with some skill. He skillfully placed a type of extremely flammable kerosene all over the wooden stronghold and then created this fire!"
The bearded man called Jacob seemed to trust the bald man's judgment and nodded. "Golovkin, I have a bad feeling. Živkovychi's death wasn't simple!"
The bald man, Golovkin, helplessly shrugged when he heard Jacob's words. "Jacob, you stubborn bull, aren't you a bit too slow? Did you only realize this now? "
"You and I both know Živkovychi's strength very well. No matter which one of us went up against him, we wouldn't be able to gain any advantage. Judging from the environment here, even if the culprit removed the traces of battle, it's still too clean. This means that the battle between Živkovychi and the culprit wasn't fierce at all, and it ended in a short period of time. This also means that there is a difference in strength between Živkovychi and the culprit!"
After hearing Golovkin's analysis, the bearded man, Jacob, once again looked around the surroundings. He seemed to want to say something, but in the end, he didn't say anything and only sighed.
Golovkin patted the ashes off his hands and pointed in the direction of the wooden house in the center of the wooden fort. "Let's go! If I'm not mistaken, Živkovychi died near that wooden house. I can feel his aura from there! "
When Golovkin and Jacob arrived near the wooden house and saw that the surroundings were extremely clean, they couldn't help but look at each other. Rubbing his nose, Golovkin looked around and shook his head with a bitter smile. "The culprit who killed Živkovychi seems to be an expert in killing and robbing. He destroyed the corpse and cleaned up the scene very skillfully. It's very difficult to find any valuable clues!"
"Then how do we report to the culprit when we go back?" Hearing Golovkin's words, Jacob also realized the seriousness of the matter. He frowned slightly and asked in return,
"What else can we say? Just tell us the truth!"
"Not only did the culprit kill Živkovychi, but they also destroyed his corpse. It has been several hours since Živkovychi's death. Under the influence of the wind in Kuit Canyon, his ashes have been blown to god knows where. Although my Book of Wraiths is magical, it can't summon him in this situation!"
"But fortunately, although Živkovychi's mysterious death has caused a huge change in our plan, from the information in my Book of Wraiths and the situation at the scene of his death, Živkovychi's Mind Sea Seal was not triggered. This means that the culprit did not get any useful information from Živkovychi's body!"
"That's enough. Jacob, do you think that the culprit cares so much about Živkovychi's life and the survival of this small Golovin tribe?"
"That's impossible. In the eyes of the culprit, whether it's Živkovychi or you and I, we're just chess pieces on the chessboard. As long as there's a need, we can be sacrificed!" Golovkin's tone was calm, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him, but a self-deprecating smile appeared on his face.
