The team moved forward in an orderly manner, and at noon, the team came to a stream to rest.

On the one hand, it can replenish physical strength, and on the other hand, it can give teams that have not kept up with the opportunity to catch up.

"Captain Hager is such a good person. If it weren't for them, we would probably have to pay a considerable price to pass through the Black Stone Jungle." Everyone couldn't help but sigh that there were indeed more monsters encountered along the way than before.

Under normal circumstances, monsters will not attack so actively when they see strong enemies, and most of them will only choose to take the initiative. At this stage, monsters are a little different. They become more impulsive and irritable, and they want to attack when they see the enemy and their strength has also been improved.

Chu Yun's lunch was still raspberry, and he felt a little strange. As he advanced, the monsters he hunted not only did not increase, but instead decreased. This did not conform to the distribution rules of monsters in the Black Stone Jungle, and the Knights also sent more scouts to investigate.

"Pamon, have you discovered anything?" Chu Yun asked his partner.

Paimon conveyed its words through the contract, and this communication was smoother: "Yaya~ there are so many powerful auras over there~"

For monsters, powerful aura usually refers to higher-level monsters that are stronger than themselves. Chu Yun looked in the direction pointed by Paramount, and there seemed to be nothing special there.

Take out the map and roughly determine the place where Paimon said based on the location of the stream and the walking distance.

"How far is it from here?" Chu Yun continued to ask.

"Paimon doesn't know~Paimon's strength is too weak, yah~"

Paramount could only roughly sense that there was a powerful existence in that direction, and the specific situation exceeded its ability.

At this time, the scouts of the Black Stone Knights seemed to have noticed something abnormal and hurriedly reported to Captain Hager.

Seeing this, Chu Yun first returned to the carriage, then entered the mirror world and headed to the location where Hagrid was.

In the real world, you will be stopped when approaching the Knights. In the mirror world, you only need to maintain a safe distance and eavesdrop on their conversations with Chu Yun's hearing.

"Report to the leader, there are a large number of monsters gathering on the edge of the Black Water Lake in the northeast..."

"Monsters gather? Is there any treasure in the lake? It shouldn't be that adventurers often appear in the Blackwater Lake, and this situation has not been discovered before." Captain Hager was very confused.

The new deputy commander of the Black Stone Knights is a military mage. He was very interested in guessing: "Captain, the riots of monsters must be related to the fall of stars. Now these monsters are gathered by the lake..."

"Maybe this is also related to the fall of stars!"

Hagrid was a little moved and wanted to find out: "It is said that someone appeared near the meteor's falling point that night, but no falling meteor was found."

The deputy commander asked the scouts to retreat first, and then said with a smile: "That's not a meteorite. In fact, our Truth Society is also studying this incident. Many people speculate that those who fell into the mortal world are actually the divine natures of the gods."

"What? God's character?!" Haeger was shocked.

"Yes, if the prophecy is correct, I'm afraid many gods have lost their corresponding divine nature. According to ancient ruins, divine nature cannot be kept intact without a carrier, and will usually be broken into many divine fragments."

"As long as you collect these divine fragments and transform them into your own power, even mortals may become gods!" The deputy commander said excitedly.

There are many gods in the Pantheon who were originally mortals, but the ordinary methods were too difficult. Only those savior heroes or evil villains in chaotic eras, who have many followers and believers, have the opportunity to condense their own divine nature.

But now it is different, so there is no need to be so troublesome. Just collect fragments and you can first obtain the complete divine nature by taking advantage of tricks and then reap the steadily improved faith.

Hager was worried when he heard the words of the deputy commander: "If your Truth Society's guess is correct, then will this world be in chaos? Although the original divine fragments are good things, they will also cause disaster for themselves."

The deputy commander nodded: "You are right, and this news will probably spread throughout the mainland soon. So Captain Hager, what is your choice?"

Hager did not answer the deputy leader's words, but continued to ask: "What are the conditions for absorbing this divine fragment? Those monsters gathered in the Black Water Lake and wanted to absorb the divine fragments?"

"These divine fragments usually retain some of the divine nature before the breaking. If they are the divine nature of the goddess of life, it will be easier for people who are orderly and kind and close to their beliefs to absorb it. If they are evil and chaotic people, it will take a lot of time to clear the remaining divine nature to absorb it."

"You should know that sometimes there are magical techniques in the fragments, which can be used directly or comprehended and learned. If you clear them, it would be a waste."

"As for monsters, it is very difficult to absorb, and the divine fragments have a great impact on them. The strength of monsters will be improved, and they will spontaneously protect the fragments from being taken away."

"This is related to the origin and birth of monsters. If you are interested, please tell you in detail. Now let's make a decision as soon as possible. If someone takes the lead, it will be troublesome." The deputy leader urged, "Even if you don't want it, you can dedicate the fragments to the gods. I believe the gods will definitely give you great rewards."

Although most of the gods are lost at this stage, there are still some gods that can be worshipped.

Haeger looked at the deputy commander curiously: "Don't you want the divine fragments?"

The deputy commander gave him a blank look: "Of course I want it, but those monsters are not something I can deal with alone. I can't order them when you are the commander."

"Even if you wait until you return to Blackstone to find help, those guys may not give me the fragments, so you might as well get the fragments."

"You try to absorb it first, if it doesn't work, then leave it to me, how about it?" The deputy leader made his request.

This is an event outside the Knights' mission, so even the leader has no right to ask him to cooperate forcibly. A third-level magician has a huge advantage when facing the monster group.

If there is no magician's scope magic, I'm afraid that the members of the Knights will suffer a lot of casualties, so it will be difficult to explain to the city lord at that time.

"The abnormality here will be spread soon, and it will be too late." The deputy commander was actually very anxious. Even if the commander did not agree with this action, he planned to try it himself.

Hagrid was in a dilemma. He was a real knight who abides by the rules of knights, and using public for personal gain is a taboo.

"Sorry, I can't let the Knights participate in this battle."

"But... I will take the guards to go with you!" Hager said gritting his teeth.

The personal guards were not organized by the Knights, but a team composed of his family's escorts.
