From Wild Mage to Wizard King

Looking at the requests on the same type of exploration communication device in his hand, Mino organized his language while marching, replying one by one to comfort them.

As the highest-level explorer in this team, Mino naturally discovered the changes in the surrounding environment. Moreover, as a superhuman and a master of superhumans, he saw more information.

Although some of these cave spiders are local spiders in Area 5, most of them are not like the cave spiders that the explorers had cleared and expelled in Area 5 before.

They are obviously larger than the cave spiders in Area 5, and the patterns on their bodies are also obviously different.

Obviously, a larger number of cave spiders with larger bodies came to Area 5 and swallowed up the local spiders that were cleared and expelled by the explorers.

However, these new cave spiders are just a little larger in size. Perhaps, for ordinary people, they will be more lethal and deterrent.

However, for all the superhuman explorers, whether they are big or small, it doesn’t make any difference. What can ordinary beasts do to fight explorers?

However, although ordinary beasts are not a threat to explorers, in the Dragon Ridge Passage, there are basically some extraordinary creatures in the biological communities that can develop.

For example, when they were cleaning up Area 5 before, they encountered several cave spiders with one ring and a cave spider leader with two rings.

Relying on the terrain advantage and sneak attacks, they still caused some casualties to the explorers.

No one can guess whether some extraordinary creatures will be born in this new spider community?

Mino silently looked at the red eyes in the darkness without any fear.

However, even if extraordinary creatures are born, what does it matter? Even the lowest-level explorers will not be afraid, let alone him.

No matter how many come, they will kill as many as they can.

Mino is not worried about the existence of extraordinary creatures in the new spider community. He is mainly worried about whether this new spider community will affect the exploration plan of Area 5.

After all, the number of explorers is limited. If an explorer who is exploring independently is besieged, it is still possible to get back the Fountain of Life and other means of resurrection. Moreover, the undead creatures responsible for some simple tasks are not very strong. Under the same number, the undead cannot beat the cave spiders.

If the undead responsible for simple tasks are demolished by these cave spiders, the exploration plan of Area 5 may have to be postponed.

In addition, this new spider colony is obviously not an honest creature. Even Mino and his group dared to follow and stare at them during the march.

Dare to follow today, dare to attack undead creatures tomorrow, dare to do anything in the future, dare not think about it.

Mino frowned slightly, looking at the cave spiders that followed them without fear, he cursed in his heart.

What is Calvin doing? Such an obvious thing, didn't he find it?

As the highest-level explorer in the fifth camp, it is impossible for him not to find the problem of these cave spiders.

If he found it, why didn't he have any news at all?

Mino frowned. It was impossible that all the explorers in Camp No. 5 had died.

Even if they had all died and were waiting for resurrection at the Fountain of Life, the Fountain of Life should have sent him a message.

He turned on the communication with the Fountain of Life on the communicator. Looking at the death list reported by the Fountain of Life, Mino did not see Calvin's name.

However, the frequency of explorers' deaths seemed to be a little higher.

Mino frowned and looked at the death list fed back by the Fountain of Life, and noticed something wrong.

Starting from the death list seven days ago, the frequency of explorers' sacrifices has increased a lot.

Camp No. 5 should not have any large-scale exploration plans recently. According to the previous plan, they should wait until they reach Camp No. 5 and the number of explorers is enough before starting large-scale exploration.

If there is no large-scale exploration, then why did these explorers still sacrifice, and the Fountain of Life has not found any abnormalities.

Is it Calvin's order?

Something is wrong, there is definitely a problem.

Looking at some familiar names on the death list, Mino frowned slightly.

These people were all explorers under his command. Under his orders, they should have stayed in the camp. Even Calvin could not have mobilized them without asking any questions and asked them to go out to explore. So how could they suddenly die?

Mino raised his head slightly, and quickly ordered the entire team through the exploration communication device, silently ordered everyone to be on alert, and activated the strange equipment on his body as if nothing had happened.

After activating the strange equipment on his body, Mino also began to contact Calvin at Camp No. 5 and sent him several messages in succession.

However, no matter what Mino sent, all the messages seemed to sink into the sea, and no response was received.

After not getting a reply from Calvin, Mino did not continue to send messages to Calvin, but sent a message to the Fountain of Life, asking the other side to send the death records of all people on the death list in the past seven days.

According to Roland's order, everyone who was resurrected in the Fountain of Life must record his own death record.

The main thing is to record why you died.

This is Roland's mandatory requirement. Even if you can't read, you have to dictate and have someone write it down.

Compared to Calvin's silence, the Fountain of Life responded very quickly.

After Mino sent the message, the Fountain of Life quickly sent a death report to Mino in less than a minute.

Looking at the death reports sent by the Fountain of Life, Mino frowned.

These death reports did not seem to have any problems. They were no different from other dead explorers. They all died suddenly for various reasons during external exploration.

The reasons for sudden death were all force majeure factors, such as: ground collapse, falling into the ground and dying; channel collapse, the whole person was buried alive; or activated some traps left by the dwarves and was killed by the trap.

These reasons are not surprising, because many explorers died for these reasons, so the Fountain of Life did not notice any problems.

Even if the frequency of explorers' deaths increased, the Fountain of Life estimated that it would only mean that the explorers had begun large-scale external exploration.

However, these death reports may deceive the staff of the Fountain of Life, but they cannot deceive Mino.

Looking at the dense red dots on the communication device on his wrist, Mino felt a deep chill in his heart.

Since they died while exploring, why are their exploration devices still in Camp No. 3?

Even if the explorers in Camp No. 5 will recover the devices, how can they recover all the devices that fell into the ground and were buried deep in the collapsed passage so quickly?

Did those who died and resurrected in the Fountain of Life lie? !

There must be a big problem at Camp No. 5.

Mino immediately summarized everything that happened and reported it to his superiors, and marked the information as an emergency notice.

Less than a minute after the emergency notice was sent out, Mino received a new order from his superiors.

Evacuate Area No. 5, build a defense line according to the situation, wait for support, and report all information including coordinates and enemies regularly.

After receiving the order, Mino immediately sent the order to retreat to everyone in the team.

After receiving the new order, the people who were on alert according to Mino's order decisively followed the order, changing the front row to the back row, and the back row to the front row, and began to evacuate.

As explorers who have received military training, obedience to order and rules has deeply influenced them.

Without questioning or complaining, they quickly executed Mino's new order.

However, their camouflage ability was relatively poor. Before they received the alert order, they were still talking and laughing along the way, but after receiving the alert order, they quickly fell silent and became silent.

The changes in the entire team were very obvious.

When the team was preparing to retreat from area No. 5 to the relatively safer area No. 4, a group of cave spiders following behind them did not make way.

Even though the light disc of the strange machine drove away the darkness and illuminated their bodies.

The cave spiders, who were somewhat uncomfortable with the light, twisted their bodies and did not retreat.

Looking at the cave spiders blocking the team, Mino calmly gave orders.

"Kill!"

His order was quickly passed to every explorer in the team.

The explorers in the front row looked at the cave spiders twisting in front of them, not adapting to the light, and took out flares in unison.

Start, throw.

More than a dozen flares were thrown above the cave spiders, and then the extremely dazzling light instantly illuminated the entire nearby area.

Under the stimulation of the strong light, all the cave spiders closed their eyes and waved their limbs randomly.

While they were confused in the strong light, the explorers who had already put on the eyepieces held weapons and began to slaughter mercilessly.

Behind them, an explorer holding a strong crossbow and wearing eyepieces also began to shoot accurately.

At the same time, in the Fountain of Life area closest to the Silver Gate, a city defense army and legion recruits were urgently mobilized.

After the city defense army and legion recruits surrounded the entire Fountain of Life, all the personnel of the Fountain of Life also received orders. They were ordered to stop some work and stay where they were for inspection.

For the sudden inspection, the personnel of the Fountain of Life were naturally very surprised and unexpected.

The Fountain of Life is a building of great importance to the War Committee. Those who can work here basically have to undergo a lot of assessments before they can come in to work.

Why do we have to be inspected suddenly? Is there a traitor sneaking in?

Thinking of this, the staff of the Fountain of Life consciously obeyed the order, put down their work, and stayed where they were to be inspected. At the same time, they looked at each other with vigilant eyes, looking for possible traitors.

Under the order of the military, the city defense army and the legion recruits quickly took over the entire Fountain of Life.

Among them, the explorers in the Fountain of Life recovery area were the focus of inspection, and all of them were gathered in an open space.

Around the open space, the legion recruits held various weapons and watched them very vigilantly, and behind the recruits, the city defense army pushed the elemental cannon and also watched them vigilantly.

Under the order of the military, the city defense army and the legion recruits did not have any contact with them. Even if they were asked to gather in the open space, they were far away and shouted at them to gather.

Just as the explorers were in panic in the open space, several rays of light flashed across the sky and flew over here.

The three commissioners who received the news arrived at the scene.

Looking at the three commissioners who were watching them vigilantly in the air, the explorers in the open space were numb.

Even three commissioners came in person, what crime did they commit?

After the commissioners came to the scene in person, the explorers no longer thought about whether they were mistaken, but began to think about what crime they had committed one by one, which required such a big fuss, and even the three commissioners were so nervous.

However, even if they dug up their memories, they couldn't figure out what crime they had committed.

"The explorers who were last in Camp No. 5, all come out."

Under the order of the commissioner, the explorers who were last in Camp No. 5 in their memory came out honestly.

A commissioner slowly landed in front of them, and the remaining commissioners stared at them, ready to take action at any time.

The commissioner who landed in front of them showed the evidence provided by Mino and spoke to the explorers in front of him.

"There is a problem with your death report. Now, I'll give you a chance to tell me what you really saw before you died."

The explorers looked at the evidence in front of them and looked at each other in bewilderment.

After all, they were not fools. After seeing the evidence, they also realized the problem, especially those explorers who remembered falling into the abyss or being buried alive. They were even more aware of the problem.

They were all resurrected in the past few days. Even if there were people in the camp responsible for recovering the strange equipment, it would be impossible to recover all of them to Camp No. 5 so quickly.

"I have checked. When you died, the strange equipment was located in Camp No. 5. Tell me, what happened in Camp No. 5? How did you deceive the inspection?"

The committee member said coldly.

If all the spellcasters were not busy now, either plastering the northern wall or deciphering the ruins at the Silver Gate, no spellcaster would have time. Otherwise, the committee member would not even ask, and would directly let the spellcasters extract their souls and forcibly check their memories.

Listening to the committee's words, a second-ring explorer frowned and muttered to himself.

"Have I been in the camp all along?"

"Yes, yes, I should have been in the camp. Why would I go out without orders?!"

"My memory, my memory has been tampered with!"

He suddenly shouted, and quickly cast a spell with his hand.

At the moment he cast the spell, several committee members immediately looked at him. Just when a committee member was about to kill him, the committee member who heard the explorer talking to himself stopped him on the other side.

"Wait, see what he is going to do."

Under the gaze of the committee members, this rare spellcaster explorer cast a second-ring spell, soul shock, and smashed it hard on his head.

Under his full output, his face instantly became a little hideous.

He had just been resurrected and was still in a weak state. He became even weaker. He knelt on the ground, and blood began to flow from his eyes and ears.

After lowering his head and being silent for a while, he suddenly raised his head and shouted loudly.

"I know, I know, it's the Dream Weaver Spider!!! The Dream Weaver Spider attacked Camp No. 3, we died in its hands, all are false memories, we were all deceived by it!"

"Dream Weaver Spider?"

After hearing this name, the false memories in the explorers' heads were shattered, and they recalled their real memories one by one.

A void.

Throwing away the false memories, their real memories only stayed a few days ago, when they were working in Camp No. 5, and suddenly their eyes went black, and then they were resurrected here.

In the past few days, they have not woken up at all, and they have no idea what happened. The so-called memories of these days are all false.

In this case, only the Dream Weaver Spider in the precautions for dangerous creatures in the Dragon Ridge Mountains issued by the Executive Committee can do it.

Since they all reacted, the committee members naturally thought of this.

Several committee members looked at each other for a few times, and after a brief exchange, one committee member stayed and placed all the explorers in front of them under house arrest in an area, prohibiting others from contacting them.

Although after the mention of the Dream Weaver Spider, these explorers may really have been deceived by the false memories woven by the illusion.

But, what if? What if it wasn't the Dream Weaver Spider?

So, for the sake of safety, it is better to isolate the explorers from others first, so that if there is any unexpected situation, it will be easier to deal with.

While the explorers moved to the area designated for them according to the order, and the committee members and soldiers were watching on the side, on the other side, several committee members also led a group of legion recruits to the Silver Gate, ready to go to support Mino.

At the same time, the committee members who were in contact with Mino immediately sent the possibility of suspected Dream Weaver Spider to Mino, asking them to be more vigilant and not be caught by the Dream Weaver Spider and fall into the dream it wove.

Fortunately, the two sides have been in contact, and Mino did not go to Camp No. 5, but chose to retreat. Therefore, they have not encountered the attack of the Dream Weaver Spider. When the committee members sent them a message, the awake Mino saw the message in time and responded.

Afterwards, he immediately distributed the information about the Dream Weaver Spider to everyone in the team and ordered everyone to remain vigilant.

Although Camp No. 5 is likely to have fallen, Mino at least discovered it in time and did not foolishly go to Camp No. 5 to fall into the trap. Now he still has the ability to fight.

The current situation is not the worst possible.

Gu, there should be another chapter in the afternoon.
