#2076 - Clue
Fang Heng immediately seized the opportunity and nodded, saying, "Yes, I've found some traces, but I'm not entirely sure. If you guys aren't in a huge rush, I'd like to temporarily suspend the mission and wait a bit. I want to go outside the Demon Cave and look for relevant clues."
The Lindro team didn't suspect anything and immediately nodded in agreement, asking, "Okay, do you need our help?"
"No need, I have a special skill. It's easier for me to act alone." Fang Heng said, glancing at the entrance of the Demon Cave, and continued, "There are still 5 hours and 35 minutes left until the end of the trial mission. Estimate the time. If I don't make it back by then, you guys can directly complete the remaining tasks."
"Okay, no problem, leave it to us."
Lindro nodded in agreement.
Fang Heng had already completed ninety-nine percent of the mission, they could definitely finish the last bit.
"Okay."
After saying that, Fang Heng immediately flashed into the maple forest behind them, completely disappearing from the sight of Lindro and his team.
One troublesome thing was that he was still locked onto by the Eternal Holy City under the trial environment, so he didn't dare to risk using the vampire's bat form.
He could only rely on his legs to run.
His movement speed was naturally greatly reduced.
It took him over an hour to leave the maple forest area and enter a village near the forest.
Entering the village, Fang Heng's heart sank.
Not good.
It looked like a medieval-style village.
The world's technology wasn't advanced, meaning that transportation wasn't convenient, and the hope of finding a teleportation array instantly dwindled significantly.
...
[Hint: The player team has completed the trial mission].
"What a pity."
More than five hours later, receiving the game notification that the trial was complete, Fang Heng sighed softly in his heart.
A slowly rotating sacred magic array appeared beneath his feet.
Fang Heng's figure gradually disappeared in the center of the magic array.
Opening his eyes again, Fang Heng returned to the Eternal Holy City.
[Hint: The player has crossed the world barrier. The investigation team sent by the God Domain will re-attempt to lock onto your position in 7+14 (extra time added due to the artifact skill) hours].
[Hint: The player team has completed the Holy Crusader Trial Assessment (A). The player receives 5000 Holy Crusader experience points and 500 Holy Crusader points].
He spent half a day of effort, but the result wasn't good.
And the time he had to escape the God Domain's pursuit was reduced by another 5 hours.
"It's okay."
Lindro emerged from the magic array. Seeing Fang Heng's expression, he thought Fang Heng was blaming himself for not finding clues to the hidden mission, so he walked up and gently patted Fang Heng's shoulder to comfort him.
"Hidden missions are inherently difficult, it's normal not to discover them."
"That's right, if hidden missions could be found so easily, what would be the point of calling them hidden?" Sack also stepped forward to encourage him, "We can just come again next time."
"Yeah."
Especially being restricted by his Holy Court faction identity, he couldn't do anything illegal or disruptive.
In short, he did manage to reach the main city in the end.
But unfortunately, he didn't find a teleportation channel in the main city as he had hoped.
All that time and effort had been wasted.
Fang Heng quickly digested the negative emotions.
After all, it was just one failure.
Bad luck.
It had nothing to do with his own strength or his judgment of the situation.
Thinking this, Fang Heng looked up at the others again, "Everyone, if you still have time..."
The Lindro group already knew what Fang Heng was going to say and immediately nodded.
"Okay! Let's try again!"
They had just rested in the game for more than five hours, only becoming active when the mission deadline was approaching, so they didn't feel tired at all.
"Brother Fang Heng, what level should we choose this time?"
"Let's go with A-level," Fang Heng nodded, "The difficulty of S-level cannot be guaranteed. Besides, I still want to observe more and increase the team's coordination a bit."
The team members looked at each other upon hearing this.
Team coordination?
Did they really still need such a thing?
"Cough cough."
Lindro felt that Fang Heng might have always been cautious, so he coughed lightly to refocus everyone's attention and nodded, "Brother Fang Heng is not without reason. Alright, let's do as Brother Fang Heng said and carry out another A-level trial."
...
Dun Cha game world.
God Domain's Holy Arbiter - Okni and the Holy Court executives gathered in front of the Central Prophecy Magic Array.
The magic array slowly stopped operating.
Okni opened his eyes again.
The Great Prophecy's tracking of Fang Heng was interrupted again.
This meant that the other party had once again entered a new world.
In these short twenty-odd hours, the other party had completed 9 spatial world jumps.
So he wanted to use this method to avoid their tracking.
It had to be said that Fang Heng had indeed given them a difficult problem.
Let's see how long you can run!
Okni said silently in his heart, glanced at the executives, and nodded, "Continue."
The others nodded and restarted the magic array.
At the same time, Fang Heng and the Lindro team once again completed the mission and exited the game world.
Everyone looked at Fang Heng.
As always, Fang Heng's expression was a bit bitter.
Lindro and the others also looked at each other, all feeling speechless.
In more than 20 hours, they had completed four missions in a row, which could be considered top-notch efficiency among all players.
It was just that Fang Heng's operations were incomprehensible to them.
Every time, he could find some strange reason to choose an A-level mission, and every time he felt like he had found some clues to a hidden mission and ran off to pursue them.
What a pity.
Every time, it ended in failure.
However, they couldn't raise any objections.
After all, Fang Heng was too powerful in combat.
They couldn't find any fault with him.
There was even one time when Fang Heng could kill the trial boss until it only had a sliver of health left, and then temporarily control the trial boss, leaving it until ten minutes before the end of the trial mission before killing the boss.
With this kind of operation, Lindro and his team had nothing to say, they just followed along and reaped the benefits.
Fang Heng was also feeling a bit bitter in his heart.
He had tried twice more in a row.
He couldn't find a way to break through and leave the game world in either game world.
Was it because of bad luck?
Or was it because of the game's settings? Did the restrictions of the trial game make it impossible to leave?
Thinking carefully, 6-7 hours was indeed a bit tight.
Fang Heng patted his cheeks to keep himself calm and continued to think.
At least he still had a lot of time to think of a solution.
With continuous spatial jumps, the God Domain's pursuers couldn't catch up with him for the time being.
