Chapter 416: Investigation Team (3)

Luo Qi's anxiety was constantly growing, and everything around him was echoing within his Mental Domain. Du Zhengyi's uncharacteristically rude treatment of the Battle Mage also brought him a strange kind of pressure; he vaguely guessed that this might be the internal way of interacting within the Battle Mage group. But his mind had always observed Du Zhengyi very carefully, and the Anchor Point transmitted a subtle vibration from the depths of his soul, beginning to make minute adjustments to maintain consistency.

He subconsciously observed Du Zhengyi, paying attention to every move Du Zhengyi made.

Du Zhengyi had completely refused to accept this investigation by this point; he could sense Du Zhengyi's intent. Even without an Entanglement, due to his unconscious observation of Du Zhengyi, his mental world was subconsciously and continuously recording his mind, and the tacit understanding between them had grown deeper and deeper.

In the outer world, Du Zhengyi had only just reached this stage; he said easily and magnanimously, "I refuse to accept the investigation."

The pretty boy was stunned. No one had ever said such treasonous words so easily. It wasn't that there hadn't been Mages who truly refused to accept an investigation, but most expressed this intent by running away. As for other thugs, after saying this sentence, they would generally start a massacre...

Luo Qi turned his head to carefully size up the pretty boy. Fine beads of sweat had already seeped out on his forehead, and his right hand was clenched nervously, like the small gestures some Mages make before casting a spell. Luo Qi observed him with interest, tracing the source by tilting his head to listen to the echoes within his Mental Domain; Luo Qi's Slime Form finally captured a trace of nervousness and panic.

Just like a great white shark smelling blood, Luo Qi's mind was invigorated, and he leaned toward the pretty boy's panic. In this blank mental world that had originally been concealed, the pretty boy was marked by his own nervous and panicked emotions, vaguely revealing a scent in the blank world.

No matter how thick the barrier against a Mind Archmage is, it ultimately requires a strong heart to cooperate. People protected within a Barrier are best off with a heart as still as water, or at least maintaining a neutral balance. It is best to be like Du Zhengyi, who can control his feelings about life, death, gain, and loss in a relatively static state, approaching a heartless state to cooperate with the way the barrier operates. If Du Zhengyi were not strong-hearted, even with several Great Mages setting up a barrier together, he would likely be unable to wear that set of city walls of his.

Luo Qi gloated as he felt that Du Zhengyi's deterrent power was truly 5A-grade; he approached that panicked soul with a level of agility completely different from his own in the real world.

His family really shouldn't have sent him to the front line of hazing people.

Would Du Zhengyi actually make a move, and would he dare to or not?

Luo Qi stopped to think for a moment, then suddenly realized that neither of the above thoughts were his. He had successfully touched another person's Yajian, finding a breakthrough in the iron city walls.

He perhaps didn't need to attack; it hadn't reached the point of needing to fight yet, but the posture these people were striking was definitely not some fair investigation.

Luo Qi's Slime Form slipped into this person's Yajian like green smoke. First, he searched the shallow Yajian of this unlucky fellow who served as the breakthrough point for the Secret Language they used to bind the barrier; the Magic Array must have an echo in his heart.
