I will swear to protect the beauty with my life.

Fang Wuwei and his three companions sat at the table, looking at the magic crystal on the table, thinking silently.

They had been here for a few days without any clues, and now something like this suddenly appeared, which really gave them a way out.

The castle was impossible to enter, and no useful information was revealed from inside. All that came out every day was some gossip.

Fang Wuwei even tried to use illusion hypnosis to control and obtain information, but those people......It seems that they know nothing. They don’t know how to break the barrier, how to bypass the barrier, and they don’t know any inside information.

The only thing they know is that Ye Tian has been in the castle, and other than that, they know how to fish.

The other four families in the central city also implement policies similar to the royal castle, but they are not as closed as the castle.

The four major families often communicate with each other, and various noble ladies also go out shopping.

But the people below don’t know, and the people above don’t come out, so there is nothing they can do.

They also planned to find the right opportunity in a few days to sneak into one of the four major families to survey, but now......There is another way to go, which seems to be safer

"The old man was saying that magic crystals were now considered strategic materials because they could store and release a large amount of magic power. They were not easily passed on to others. The production location of these things was......Somewhere outside the city.

Fang Wuwei pointed to the magic crystal, and then pointed to a corner on the map. That place was already outside the central city, and seemed to be in a dense forest.

Chi Nei Dongyan touched his chin, his face full of confusion.

"The production of magic crystals is closely related to the blood of the Chi Nei family. There is a special magic in our blood, so we can make these things, so the child’s mother can’t make them either.......What's more, making these things also puts a certain burden on our bodies. How can Ye Tian achieve mass production?"

Chi Nei Dongyan picked up the magic crystal that did not belong to them and looked at it carefully.

"Moreover, both the color and quality are excellent......."

"That means we need to go there now?"

Ikeuchi Maki looked at the map and calculated the distance. It was not far.

"yes......But for safety reasons, we still need to check the situation first."

"when?"

"tonight......"......................................................

The moon was bright in the sky, shining brightly, and the silvery moonlight was sprinkled in a dense forest.

Although it was not midsummer, there were still countless insects in the woods making long chirps, bringing a breath of life.

Deep in the dense forest, there was a huge steel house, buried deep in countless trees, and difficult to detect.

It was clearly late at night, but the house was still brightly lit, and countless patrol law enforcement officers were wandering outside, some holding knives and guns, or carrying magic wands.

"Hey, Chichuan, would you like one?"

"No, the boss saw me and I got fined."

Two of the law enforcers were leaning against the wall, and one of them took out two cigarettes from his pocket, seemingly slacking off.

"Tsk, you are so timid."

The man who took out the cigarette put one of them back in his pocket, picked up another one, put it in his mouth and started to smoke.

"Didn’t we always slack off together before?"

"That's different......I said I don't want to smoke, but you really won't give it to me?!"

Chi Chuan reached out and took out a cigarette from another person's pocket, lit it up amid the man's laughter and scolding, took a deep puff, and exhaled the thick smoke.

"Cool......Oh, now I am afraid of being caught even when I smoke a cigarette"

"yes......It didn't matter if I just fished casually before......."

The two of them just leaned against the wall. There was little light outside the house, so they huddled in the darkness, with only two sparks flickering.

"Those people in the Far East......It's really disgusting. We can't even touch the fish now."

"............Come on, who could have thought that someone would come here in the middle of the night to steal crystals?"

"well......That old witch is making trouble again. We have tightened the guards and said that if the crystal is lost again, we will lose our jobs.......How about quitting?"

"Losing our jobs is still a good thing. If the Brun family knew about this, we would lose our heads. If it weren't for the old witch who suppressed us,......Besides, resign? You can resign if you want, but I can't. This is a stable job. I have an 80-year-old mother and a 3-year-old child waiting for me to take care of."

The atmosphere suddenly became a little heavy, and then Chi Chuan took a deep puff of the cigarette, threw the cigarette butt on the ground and stomped it out.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore, let's go on patrol......."

"Alas, when will this day end?~~"

Another person watched Chi Chuan leave, sighed deeply, crushed the cigarette butt in his palm and extinguished it, then threw it on the side of the road, tilted his head back and wailed, and walked away in the opposite direction.

Countless law enforcers were still patrolling, but it was obvious that they were not patrolling seriously. It was already late at night, and most people were sleepy, yawning and looking listless.

Some even curled up to take a nap.......It can be seen that they are really relaxed at ordinary times.

It is better to say that they have actually increased their vigilance.......In terms of magic.

The law enforcers, including the senior executives inside, rely on magic mental perception to detect whether anyone has sneaked in.

Now the law enforcement patrols have already followed the rules and fully opened the magic mental perception. The range is still very large. Not to mention people, even a mouse can be sensed.

Even those who have fallen asleep and slacked off have secretly opened up all-round mental perception. Just sitting or sleeping in that area, as long as someone comes in, they will find and wake up at the first time, and then go to encircle and suppress them.

This is the way magicians patrol. With powerful mental perception and a perception barrier, as long as such a thing is turned on, they don’t really care about their bodies slacking off.

The premise is that they don’t relax the release of mental perception.

With the dual protection of magic barrier and mental perception, the entire house and the surrounding area of dozens of meters have long been covered. In fact, most of them don’t care even if they sleep. They only need to be responsible for their own area.

But unfortunately, when magic appears, there will naturally be corresponding nemesis.

Not far from the dense forest, just outside the perception range, two little heads are staring at this place through telescopes.

Fang Wuwei and Ikeuchi Maki lay on the grass, each holding a telescope to observe the situation outside the house.

According to the intelligence, that was where the magic crystals were produced, and it was also where the old man came to steal things, but why did it seem so strange?......Doesn't the security seem to be very strict?

It was just robbed once not long ago, and now it doesn't learn its lesson again.......No, the old man said that their patrol method is actually through spiritual perception as a means of surveying.......This method is much more effective than observation with the naked eye, and it is like a human radar.......

Fang Wuwei tilted his head and looked at Ikeuchi Maki who was lying beside him, and suddenly felt funny.
