Chapter 541 [Real-time Navigation]

The Seekers of Knowledge over there have been preparing for war in the Stone Fortress.

Bacon received the news from his brother here.

He was scolded on the spot.

[How many times have I said it! Think more before doing things, and consider the possible consequences! ]

[Why are you in such a hurry? Time is on our side, can't we wait until we are fully prepared? If we just rush in, the cultists will definitely be alarmed! ]

Bacon blinked twice.

He thought about it.

What his brother said... seems to make sense.

But thinking about it from another angle, Bacon felt that he didn't seem to have done anything wrong.

Since the cultists buried a hidden bomb here, it will explode one day, and they will try to dismantle it sooner or later.

Bacon, Lancelot, Dolan, Sam and the other four just touched the bomb a few days in advance.

Although according to Pete's idea, if they delay it for a few more days, they will be more fully prepared.

But their enemies, the cultists of the Supreme Truth Church, are not fools!

They must also be trying to detonate the bomb as soon as possible.

Their preparations are more adequate, but the enemy's threat is also greater!

This is just like the joke about Minister Reyak that Bacon and his friends complained about on the airship.

Sometimes, hesitation leads to defeat.

When you rush directly and the enemy is not ready, you may achieve unexpected results.

For example, now.

Bacon and his friends pretended to be caught and were sent directly to the depths of the excavation site, which was equivalent to a barb growing on the heart of the cultists.

If used properly, they have a chance to do more.

Although they tried to attack the gray and shriveled tentacle to no avail, but...the cultists and the bewitched barbarian dwarves, they can still deal with it!

The "twilight moment" that the cultists are waiting for to start the sacrifice has not yet arrived. During this period, they are in the dark and the enemy is in the light.

The premise of alerting the cultists is that someone discovers the abnormality in the stone chamber.

What if they can kill all the cultists here?

As long as no one can pass the information, their actions will be considered a perfect infiltration!

They have tried it in the previous two battles.

There are legendary experience rewards for killing the dwarves in this excavation site!

And the rewards are more generous than hunting monsters of the same strength.

Before they start the action, they need to find the weapons they took away when they were captured, as well as various materials needed to cast divine spells.

"Where will they put our things?"

Bacon was a little worried.

In such a complex underground area, if you wander around like a headless fly, the probability of finding the target is about the same as a blind cat catching a dead mouse.

But if you can't get back those carefully prepared divine spell materials, the strength of the four people will be significantly affected.

Especially Bacon.

Rangers are good at setting various types of traps, but no matter how strong a ranger is, he can't create a dangerous trap device when he has nothing at hand.

You can't just dig a hole in the ground and expect people to fall into it, right?

"This question is simple!" Sam raised his thumb easily: "When you encounter difficulties, remember to pray to the Lord devoutly, He will guide you!"

Among the four people in the team, Sam has believed in Norman for the longest time, and he experienced the Ceylon Eternal Night as a believer seeking knowledge.

When can you use prayer to solve problems and when to rely on your own strength, Sam is now very familiar with how to pray to Norman.

"The Lord will not solve problems for us directly. He is not an omniscient and omnipotent existence, but He will definitely give us guidance and hints to find answers."

...

After consuming a small amount of destiny points in exchange for guidance, Bacon actually got the relevant "clues" and a question about "whether to turn on the [Real-time Navigation] function."

Bacon naturally chose to turn it on. The destiny points consumed by the function are also charged by the hour.

Similar to the consumption mode of [The Secret of All Things], the default time of turning it on lasts for 1 hour. By paying more destiny points, it can be made to take effect continuously.

The clue given by Norman did not directly give Bacon a clear location or position, but a bright golden light spot appeared on the light screen of the illusion magic beside him.

There was another position on the light screen where a green light spot was flashing.

The green light spot was framed by a nearly square figure, and a short line was connected to the edge of the figure.

Bacon observed the content on the light screen.

Comparing the stone chamber in front of him and the alley leading to the outside of the stone chamber, he suddenly understood.

"I understand!"

"The location of the golden light spot represents the destination!"

"The green light spot represents myself."

"The figure and line above represent this stone chamber and the alley connected to the outside!"

"So I just need to find a way to get closer to the location of the golden light spot!"

With the guidance of the map, Bacon was completely relieved.

The intricate underground passages of the excavation site have become an advantageous terrain for Bacon and his team to play.

There are a large number of alleys here, which provide transportation, walking, ventilation and other functions, as well as a large number of turns and blind spots.

They can find every corner suitable for ambushes and sneak attacks.

Even throwing corpses is very convenient!

And they don't have to worry about getting lost, because the light screen of the illusion magic shows their real-time location.

Although the effect of the entire [Real-time Navigation] only shows the stone chamber where Bacon is and the passage outside, as he moves underground, all the intersections and passages that Bacon has witnessed and discovered will appear on this real-time map.

You don't even need to pay attention to the reference objects, as long as you strictly follow the route recorded on the map, you will never get lost.

"Follow me, I know which direction to go to find our confiscated weapons and spell materials!"

Bacon took the lead and planned to open the way.

"Wait, wait!" Dolan raised his hand to stop Bacon.

"What..." Bacon was about to ask in confusion, but saw Dolan made a silent gesture, and the latter then flexibly lay on the ground of the corridor outside the stone chamber, put his ear to it, and listened attentively.

After a few seconds,

Dolan stood up, patted the dust on his clothes, lowered his voice, and spoke softly:

"Someone is moving not far away, about two corners away from us."

"There should be only two people, at most no more than three!"

"They are moving away from us, probably just passing by by chance."

"I suggest waiting for a while before setting off to avoid a head-on encounter with them"

The other three were stunned by Dolan's trick.

"You heard it?!" Sam asked in surprise.

He couldn't just rely on lying on the ground to hear so much information.

Dolan smiled embarrassedly.

"I have learned and tried to locate the position by listening to the sound for a short time before."

"And you know, I just know a little, a little!"
