Chapter 280
Sorry guys, I was unable to post last night . But I'm posting four chapters today, so please forgive me :p
. . .
We arrived at the center of the forest after half a day of walking .
When we arrived there, the scene we saw surprised us .
Hundred of beasts were gathered surrounded a hill .
Strangely, the beasts were very tame . You could see wolves standing beside deers, rabbits with eagles, and boars beside crocodiles .
To be honest, the scene was a bit creepy . Even more when each and every monster was looking in direction of the hill, as though entranced by something .
"T-The beasts, w-what is happening?" Iris was a bit nervous .
To be honest, I found this scene a bit underwhelming . After all, I recently saw an endless sea of monsters where the weakest was at the sixth or the seventh layer, and the strongest ones were a bit weaker than a god . Therefore, when I saw a group of monsters with the strongest being just an eight-layer lizard, to be honest, I could not even get excited .
But for Iris and Daisy, who had never seen something like this, this scene was already terrifying enough .
"Y-Your Highness, what now?"
"Lower your voices," I said and fell deep into thought . A few seconds later, I came to a decision . "We will continue?"
"C-Continue?" Iris looked at me as though I was crazy .
"Calm down, it's not as dangerous as you think," I said with a smile . "Look there . "
The girls looked at the place where I was pointing and saw a man standing in the middle of the monsters .
"T-That is…"
"One of Alan's men," I replied . "If I'm not wrong, the beasts are in a kind of dazed state right now . They probably will not react unless we attack them directly . Of course, we need to be careful either way . We don't want to be discovered by Alan's men . If they had an unknown method to control the beasts, we are screwed . "
Iris and Daisy looked at each other and nodded .
Although my method sounded risky, both Iris and Daisy knew it was necessary to understand more about Alan's plan .
Whatever he was planning with these beasts, it was obvious the answer was in that hill . Thus, we needed to go there .
"Keep close to me," I said as we entered the forest of beasts .
Just like I expected, none of the beasts paid attention to us . Daisy even touched one accidentally, but the beast just glanced at Daisy briefly before turning towards the center of the hill again .
Such a situation relieved the girls, but at the same time, it made them more nervous about whatever the thing in the hill was .
The fact that it managed to put so many beasts under its control spoke of how dangerous it was .
The infiltration went smoothly . We used the beasts to hide from Alan's men and continue forward .
Normally, something like this would have not been so easy . But I stealthily used a spell called [Sight Vector Interference] . It was a mind interference spell that worked emitting a signal that subconsciously influenced its targets and made them look anywhere but the place where the caster was .
A very useful spell for infiltration . And the best part is that you don't need to hide yourself purposefully . Just by casting it, everybody would subconsciously avoid looking at you .
With the help of that spell (although the girls did not know of its existence), we reached the hill in less than half an hour .
But once there, we faced another problem .
The hill was strictly guarded . There were powerful people on each side of the hill, and they were very vigilant to stop anything from coming closer to the hill .
Even the monsters seemed to know that they could not continue forward, and every monster had stopped at least two hundred meters away from the hill, creating a clearing that would allow the guards to see anyone that wanted to enter the hill .
Actually, such a setting was not a problem for my spell, but even an idiot would realize that something is wrong if we run for two hundred meters under the gazes of several guards and all the guards look in another direction .
"What are we going to do now?��� Iris asked .
