The main force was still in the same formation as before, with Windsor and Olga walking in front, and Sean and his other subordinates walking behind.

It's just that compared to last time, everyone is more cautious.

Sean also stopped from time to time to use the telescope to observe the magic circle.

Although the distance to the magic circle is getting closer and closer, the magic circle is so dark that nothing can be seen.

...

Everyone walked very fast at first, but after approaching the magic circle, everyone's speed slowed down.

When they were still 50 meters away from the magic circle, the team's speed was basically comparable to that of a snail.

Sean also understood everyone’s nervousness and said directly:

"Everyone, please stop for now!"

"call."

Olga, who was walking at the front, let out a long breath, pulled out the water bottle on her waist and took a deep sip:

"Damn it! The closer I get, the more I feel that there is something evil about this magic circle!"

Windsor had a much better attitude than Olga. After all, he had a resurrectable BUFF. He smiled and patted Olga on the shoulder:

"I think it's a problem with your mentality?"

Olga glared at Windsor, held the water bottle again and took a big sip.

...

Sean looked at everyone around him. Everyone was quite nervous and staring at the magic circle.

But when it comes to going forward to investigate, I guess no one has the courage.

After all, two gold-level corpses are still lying in the town. Who can guarantee that the magician who arranged the magic circle did not leave any backup plans?

How about hiring a mercenary who is not afraid of death for a lot of money to go and have a look?

...

While Sean was thinking, Windsor suddenly turned his head and looked over:

"Sir, why don't I go over and check it out! After all, I have the highest defense and life-saving skills. If I encounter danger, I can [Charge] back."

As Windsor spoke, he used the [Copper Skin Iron Armor], and a gray and uneven protective shield of fighting spirit emerged on his body.

Olga looked at the protective shield on Windsor's body with envy. He was indeed a person from Palomia, and he had many high-end fighting skills!

…

After hearing Windsor's words, Sean knew that this was a good idea, but Sean still rejected him:

"No! I think it's too dangerous! There is a big difference between you and Sky Level. This little defense is not enough to guarantee your safety... Well, Windsor, you go to the lake first.

Bring that giant sword."

Sean pointed at the huge sword leaning on the ground by the Moon Shadow Lake and shining with dazzling light.

No matter what, the giant sword must be taken away.

"Okay." Windsor nodded and walked towards the lake.

...

After Windsor left, Olga immediately became nervous:

"Your Highness Sean, you don't want me to be cannon fodder, do you? My defense is far worse than Windsor, and Sophia only has me as a father..."

"Okay!" Sean waved his hand to interrupt Olga:

"Let's test it out first, and then make a decision...Besides, Sophia has more than one father, and I am also her father!"

Olga: "???"

Sean did not explain to Olga, but looked at Zude and patted the bronze longbow he carried behind him:

"Zude, tie a stone to the bow and arrow, remove the arrowhead, and shoot it to see if there is any reaction!"

The bronze-level longbow that Zude carries is Windsor's. Since Windsor gained more skills, it became very troublesome, so Zude has been carrying it.

"Okay, sir!" Zude nodded.

…

Zude picked a fist-sized stone on the side of the road, and then went to the mercenary regiment's logistics staff to ask for two ropes to tie the stone tightly.

Sean used the binoculars to look in the direction of the magic circle, but after waiting for a long time, Sean did not hear Zude shooting an arrow.

So Sean put down the telescope: "What happened to Zude? Hurry up and release the arrow!"

Zude replied awkwardly: "Sir, I can't shoot arrows..."

Sean: "..."

"Forget it, I'll do it!" Olga walked to Zude's side, took the long bow, drew it and released it.

The arrow tied with a stone flew crookedly towards the charred magic circle.

"Bang!"

The arrow landed in the center of the magic circle, kicking up countless dust.

Olga looked at the longbow in her hand with satisfaction:

"I know this long bow! This should be the treasure of the owner Bach Bronze Hammer. It is a bronze magic bow that is comparable to a silver bow. I didn't expect it to be in the hands of your highness!"

After Olga finished speaking, she found that Sean ignored him, and everyone else around him also ignored him. Everyone stared at the magic circle with wide eyes.

Fortunately, although the stones raised a lot of dust, the magic circle was silent for the time being.

...

Two minutes later, Windsor came back with the shining giant sword, but there was still no movement in the magic circle.

"It seems that this magic circle is safe for the time being." Sean breathed a sigh of relief.

Windsor stuck the giant sword on the ground and said happily to Sean:

"Sir, this is indeed a gold-level giant sword! As for the flickering light inside, it should be the fighting spirit that the gold-level warrior injected before his death, and it has not dissipated until now."

Olga looked at the giant sword with some jealousy:

"I think this giant sword is worth at least 1,300 gold coins! Your Highness Sean, do you want to send it to Yoen City for auction? I can contact you..."

"No need." Sean interrupted Olga with a black line: "Can we solve the current problem first?"

Sean pointed hard at the magic circle.

Seeing Sean mention the magic circle, Olga suddenly stopped talking.

Sean thought for a while and said:

"Everyone in the mercenary group, who of you doesn't want to live...wrong, who is not afraid of death and goes to the magic circle in front to have a look, I will give you a huge reward! How about 100 gold coins?"

Mercenaries, look at me and I look at you, no one answered Sean's words.

Seeing that 100 gold coins didn't work, Sean was about to increase the bonus when Olga suddenly walked to the front of the team and looked back at Sean:

"Your Highness Sean, if you can give me that golden-level giant sword, I won't be afraid of dying and will step forward to check... Of course, if I die, help me take care of Sophia!"

Sean rolled his eyes at Olga and was about to say something.

But at this time, the stone that had just been shot at the center of the magic circle suddenly moved, and then flew towards Olga at an extremely fast speed.

"Olga, be careful!" Sean shouted hurriedly.

"What?" Olga turned her head.

But it was too late, the stone flew over quickly and hit Olga in the abdomen instantly.

"puff!"

Olga spat out a mouthful of blood, was carried by the stone and flew 3 meters, and fell to the ground.

"Captain!"

The mercenaries were shocked and rushed toward Captain Olga.

Anduin also walked up to Olga and released [Quick Healing] at the moment Olga fell to the ground.

At the same time, Anduin quickly said to Sean:
Chapter completed!
