Chapter 181 The Wizard in the Noble Camp
Earl Brad was a very shrewd nobleman, known as the "cunning fox".
He was one of the initiators of this great migration of nobles—he was the first noble in the Kingdom of the Shield to realize that the situation was not good and then rush to the border.
After arriving at the border, he was the first to realize that if they continued to delay, they would not have enough food. So he issued an order to requisition supplies.
Of course, the grain requisitioned from those villages was all inferior coarse grain, which was naturally unfit for the nobles to eat.
So he also oversaw another deal.
They used these coarse grains to trade with the army of the Kingdom of Tallinn for edible food and wine befitting a noble's status.
"And the army of the Kingdom of Tallinn stationed on the border will also receive more supplies," as well as the goodwill of these nobles.
At the same time, it was when Count Brad wanted to negotiate with that village that he issued the order to destroy it, in order to intimidate other villages.
In the darkness of night, Loon moved through the vast camp like a ghost, following the list provided by the knight leader, entering and leaving one barracks after another, taking one life after another.
Under the cover of spiritual power, the sword energy unleashed by the slashing technique is the most terrifying weapon for ordinary people.
Even the lowest power sword energy released can easily pierce the heart of an ordinary person and take their life.
After all the soldiers and knights who had gone on the mission had died, Loon stopped, rubbed his temples, and continued toward the center of the camp.
This vast temporary camp is a huge, multi-layered circle.
On the outermost layer were merchants, servants, and slaves.
In the middle was the camp of the soldiers and knights.
"The innermost part is where the nobles live."
The higher the status of a nobleman, the closer he would live to the very center of the camp.
Within the camp, there were two wide roads specifically reserved for nobles; no one else was allowed to set foot on them.
This was so that if anything happened, they could escape from the center of the camp without being trapped and killed inside.
"what?"
"There are actually wizards protecting the camp inside?"
Upon stepping into the inner part of the camp, Luo Ang couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
—The instant he crossed that inner boundary, he clearly realized that he had stepped into a field of spiritual energy.
Within the field, two different spiritual energies squeezed and collided with each other.
It appears to be a wizard protecting the camp, engaged in a covert battle with a wizard who has invaded the camp.
"Has someone else arrived?"
Similarly, because Luo Ang had been concealing his presence with his mental energy since entering the camp, the two masters of mental energy in the field of mental energy also sensed Luo Ang's presence when he entered the field.
In an instant, the two entangled spiritual energies pressed down on Luo Ang, locking onto him.
Without a second thought, Luo Ang immediately pulled back, breaking away from the field of mental energy, and then spread his own mental energy in all directions, transforming it into another field of mental energy.
A wizard's mental energy field is like an unfolded spider web, and the wizard himself is like a spider positioned in the very center of the field, touching all the changes within it.
When an outside wizard steps into this domain, the wizard who has activated the domain will be able to immediately lock onto the outside wizard and thus gain the upper hand in the battle.
Even though the wizard who stepped into the field was using his mental power to conceal his presence, the mental power he used to conceal his presence would still cause some disturbance to the field itself the moment he stepped in.
The choice between revealing one's presence and taking the initiative in battle depends on the specific circumstances. A wizard's combat wisdom is revealed in this delicate balance of decision-making.
After retreating to the inner ring of the camp and waiting for a while, there was no warning or any other movement inside the camp. The two wizards who were entangled did not chase after him. Only then did Luo Ang carefully maintain the blooming mental energy field and slowly move his mental energy towards the inner ring of the camp, squeezing into the two fields that were still entangled.
As their mental energies compressed each other, the outlines of the other two fields clearly emerged in Luo Ang's perception.
Generally speaking, the mental energy field created by a wizard is a sphere with himself as the center. If it is on an extremely flat surface, it is a standard hemisphere.
The campsite, though not flat, was roughly the same.
Therefore, following the outline of that mental energy field, Luo Ang directly drew two tangent lines and extended them further inwards—
Although his mental power had not yet spread over, and his vision was obscured by the night, the location of the two wizards entangled in the inner ring had already been locked by Loon from a distance.
"What a lively night!" Luo Ang vibrated his mental energy, emitting a unique sound.
"I never expected that there would be two wizards among this group of nobles."
Luo Ang spoke first.
"I'm not a nobleman."
The identities of wizard and nobleman seem to be in conflict, and there is a taboo surrounding them.
As soon as Luo Ang finished speaking, the two wizards who were still confronting each other immediately stopped arguing and spoke up to explain.
Both mental energy fields vibrated simultaneously.
"It's good that he's not a nobleman." Loen made no attempt to hide his purpose.
"I am from Baiguo Village. Yesterday I returned from my travels, only to find that my village had been reduced to ruins."
"It's said that the order was given by someone named Brad."
"I came here specifically to kill him. Do you want to stop me?" Luo Ang said, expressing his meaning by activating his mental power.
Hearing Lo'ang's voice, the two wizards who had just ended their entanglement couldn't help but feel a chill run down their spines.
These two wizards, one of whom was named Wizard Fallon.
A wizard named Greer.
The wizard Fallon made a deal with the wizard Lamina to kidnap Earl Brad.
The wizard Grell made a deal with Count Brad—he would protect Count Brad's safety, and Count Brad would provide him with the wealth and resources he needed.
For example, living people or corpses.
