Chapter 197 Blindfold

"I see. A sleight of hand is just an illusion. Hmm. I think I can give it a try."

Li Qiuzhi nodded, then his eyes turned golden and continued to look at the cracks in the mountain wall.

His "Great Illusion of All Things, the Eyes of Madness and Judgment" also has the effect of seeing through illusions, but he has not encountered the corresponding situation before, so he has not shown it much.

Now is the time.

Sure enough, in his field of vision, the cracks in the mountain wall in front of him gradually faded, like morning mist dissipating in the sunlight.

Instead, there was a crack like a starry sky.

"Secret Realm!"

Li Qiuzhi made a surprised sound.

"Secret realm. Well, it seems that the base of these Abyss Mages is hidden in a secret realm. No wonder patrolling knights rarely encounter the base of the Abyss Cult."

Qin said thoughtfully.

"So that's how it is. Should we go in?" Li Qiuzhi asked.

It is a very risky act to rashly enter a secret place knowing that there are enemies. After all, no one knows what is inside.

Qin was silent for a moment. Her wind element mark was very hidden and the Ice Abyss Mage probably had no way of discovering it.

Since we won't be discovered, the possibility of being ambushed is very low.

Moreover, as the acting leader of the Knights of Favonius, she is still confident in her own strength and would not be unable to deal with even a stronghold of the Abyss Cult.

"Honorary Knight, can you let us in without destroying this illusion?"

Qin's fair face was facing Li Qiuzhi, and she asked with her lips slightly parted.

This sleight of hand that hides the portal to the secret realm does more than just cover up the visual aspect.

If you cannot see through the illusion, then everything you encounter will really just be the cracks in the mountain wall that you see before your eyes, and you will not be able to enter the portal to the secret realm.

"Well, please give me your hand, it should be no problem."

Since Li Qiuzhi is not affected by the illusions here, he can easily enter the secret realm portal. If he brings people with him, he should just pull them in together.

"Okay." Qin nodded and shook Li Qiuzhi's outstretched right hand.

Li Qiuzhi held the piano leader's fair hand, which was also soft and warm. He walked towards the secret portal in the crack of the mountain wall.

The space changed, and the two of them appeared inside the secret realm as easily as pushing open a door.

This place looks like a cave, but the road ahead is very flat, as if it has been repaired by humans.

After waiting for a few seconds, no ambush appeared.

It seems that the Ice Abyss Mage did not notice that the two people followed him and sneaked into the secret realm.

Next.

You can follow Captain Qin to continue looking for the Ice Abyss Mage. If nothing unexpected happens, the place where he is should be the base of the Abyss Cult in this secret realm.

"That. Honorary Knight." Qin, who had a golden ponytail, called out hesitantly to the young adventurer in front of her.

Li Qiuzhi turned around and asked, thinking that Captain Qin had some instructions:

"Ah, what's wrong?"

"Well, you can let go of my hand first. I'm not used to being held all the time."

Qin coughed lightly, and twitched her right hand twice, but found that the Honor Knight did not let go. She had no choice but to remind him out loud.

As she loves reading romance novels, she unexpectedly thought of the scene in the novel where the hero and heroine hold hands.

Well, maybe the Honorary Knight is a good romantic partner, but she has to put her responsibilities first. These personal feelings can only be put aside for the time being.

Qin thought of this inexplicably, and also subtly felt the feeling of holding hands. It was an almost unfamiliar experience.

[Qin has developed a favorable impression of you, gaining 200 points of favorable impression, and the current favorable impression level is Lv.6 (90/600)]

"Ah, sorry."

Hearing the prompt from Qinhe's character panel, Li Qiuzhi said a little embarrassedly and slowly let go of the hand he was holding.

The main reason is that Captain Qin's hands are really soft, and the warm body temperature transmitted from his palms gives people the feeling of being wrapped in a "hand warmer" in winter, making people reluctant to let go.

Of course, there was also the reason that he observed the internal environment as soon as he entered the secret realm and ignored it for a while.

"Well, let's keep going."

Qin lifted her golden hair on the side of her face, her expression normal, as if she didn't care too much about it.

The two walked forward along the flat road. Beside Li Qiuzhi, Captain Qin's white high-heeled boots made a slightly dull sound as they stepped on the ground.

He suddenly found that he seemed to be a little shorter than the leader of the piano group, about two or three centimeters.

But he doesn't really care about height, as long as he doesn't look obviously short.

After passing through a long cave-like corridor, Li Qiuzhi and his companions came to a pool of water, in which there were some water slimes, both large and small.

Roughly between level thirty-five and level forty.

"Captain Qin, let me handle it. You can take a rest." Li Qiuzhi said positively.

With his current strength, slimes of this level no longer pose any threat to him and can only provide him with experience points.

"Well, Honorary Knight, I'll leave it to you." Qin crossed her arms and nodded.

Li Qiuzhi took out the Adventurer's Hunting Bow, released the fire element in his evil eye and attached it to the arrow. In this way, combined with the "evaporation reaction", he basically shot one slime with one arrow, and soon cleared out the slimes in front of him.

[Defeat powerful enemies*6 and gain 2231 experience points. 】

Without the slime blocking their way, Li Qiuzhi and the other man continued to walk towards the location marked by the wind element, while keeping an eye out for enemies that might appear at any time.

Perhaps this secret realm had been occupied by the Abyss Cult as a stronghold for a long time, resulting in Li Qiuzhi not seeing a single treasure chest.

They must have been taken away by them.

Soon Li Qiuzhi and the other person came to a fork in the road. Without thinking too much, they just continued to walk in the direction of the wind element mark.

It didn't take long.

Li Qiuzhi and Qin met the guy who blocked their way again.

This time there were a bunch of Hilichurls, all of the same size, and generally around level 30, much weaker than Li Qiuzhi.

"Leave it to me." Li Qiuzhi said with a smile.

It seems that there is no need for Captain Qin to take any action. If this secret realm is just at this level, if he is given some time, he can "pass through it alone".

[Defeat powerful enemies*11 and gain 3679 experience points. 】

When defeating the slime before, I used the fire element to attach the arrows six times, and most of the fire element reserves in the evil eye have been used up.

So this time he used water element arrows made of water ore and arrows attached with wind element alternately, creating a diffusion reaction to eliminate these monsters.

Li Qiuzhi did not waste time collecting the monsters' drops.

After all, there is something more important, which is to find and clear out the Abyss Mage in this stronghold first, so as not to delay time and cause it or them to run away.

Of course, you still have to collect them when you return, as they are worth a lot of Mora.
