Vol 5 Chapter 218: Before leaving

   Deep in the silent forest, in front of the entrance to the secret realm.
  According to the clues sent by Fei Rui, the two witches and the black cat did not take too long to find the entrance to the secret realm, two crooked ancient locusts. At the foot of the locust tree, there is a cluster of other flowers on the left and right.
The two ancient locusts have independent feet and entangled branches and leaves. The trunks seem to have been squeezed hard by people. They are a bit flat and put together to form a long and narrow gap. When you look at it, the inside is dark and black, like a cave directly under the ground. Not to end.
  But Zheng Qing clearly knew that the diameter of the two ancient locust trees was only about one meter at breast height, and the gap between the trees should not be invisible at a glance. The only explanation is that the long and narrow gap is the target he is looking for this time, the entrance to the secret realm.
  Standing on the glade in front of the entrance, the two had a meeting before the last adventure.
  The host of the meeting is naturally the leader of this adventure team, classmate Colmar.
"This is the first time we have explored this secret realm, and we need to be extra careful." The witch's attitude is very conservative, maintaining her always cautious style: "Everything is premised on ensuring safety...Under this premise, the tentative goal is Two."
"First, confirm that the clues we have obtained are true and effective. This includes determining whether the tree hole behind the tree hole is really a'secret door'; if it is true, we also need to set up an array and construct an enchantment to ensure that we enter and exit smoothly and' The secret door is not discovered by other wizards who pass by by accident."
  Speaking, she raised her head and glanced at the gap between the two ancient locusts, and raised her hand to pull the hood on her head.
  "Second, if time permits, we can simply explore the secret realm and collect basic information about the secret realm. Including the size of the territory, the number and state of animals and plants, determining the basic constants of the secret realm, and determining the main threat sources in the secret realm."
   "With so much work, are you planning to go in and work separately?" Black Cat questioned.
   Colmar shook her head.
  "The above-mentioned exploration content does not necessarily need to be completed. You can choose to complete a part of it to lay a good foundation for the next exploration. The specific content can be determined later."
  "During the exploration process, we must always maintain the formation of the'Little Three Talents' formation, and we must never act without permission."
  "The whole operation is centered on me, I am in charge of command, and you have the right to make suggestions."
"Although it is only a secret realm, in theory there will be no existence above the registered wizard level, but just in case, if there is a high-risk goal, retreat is the first option. When retreating, I will be responsible for the queen, and'faceless' will go first. "
  The black cat nodded after hearing the words. In taking risks, we often encounter situations where the plan cannot keep up with the changes. In this case, a flexible but stable decision-making mechanism is very important. Colmar's arrangements can be described as sophisticated.
  At the end of this small-scale meeting, Colmar also made detailed arrangements for the adventure gains:
  "Hunting is not the primary goal of this exploration, and no gathering or hunting is allowed without the permission of all members. If you encounter a monster or other creature that actively attacks, deter the opponent is the primary goal."
  "All the hunts are kept by ‘faceless’ and distributed evenly afterwards...regardless of the contribution."
  'Faceless' is Jelena, because she always wears a white mask on her face when she meets during this period, so Kolma gave her a codename of'faceless'. Correspondingly, Kolma gave herself the code name ‘Captain’, and the black cat’s code name was ‘Black Cat’-she originally wanted to call the black cat ‘Black Cat’, but she reluctantly gave up after the black cat’s strong opposition.
  As for hunting, regardless of contribution, it will be distributed equally, Zheng Qing also thinks it is understandable.
  Because according to this distribution method, it is possible to prevent a member from acting without authorization for hunting purposes. Even a wizard, no one will do things that are not good.
   "No problem." Irina nodded.
  The black cat also pulled his beard and nodded in agreement.
  Clarify the plan and the way of hunting and distribution beforehand, which can avoid entanglement during exploration and contradiction afterwards. This is a practical problem that every temporary hunting team needs to face.
  From this point of view, Colmar is doing very well.
   "Last comprehensive inspection before entering."
  Korma pulled out her own books and reminded them in turn:
   "Let's check... the spell entry is valid, the state of the book is normal, and the casting effect is good."
  "Basic chemical inspection."
  "Amulet check."
  "Talisman inspection."
  Because the black cat only hung a jade pendant around his neck from head to toe, and had no other equipment, when the two teammates checked their outfits, it could only squat by the side and stared blankly.
  Until Elena started to check the talisman that the black cat sent out not long ago.
   "Where did you get these runes?" The gypsy witch suddenly spoke, and asked the black cat casually: "It feels very effective."
  While speaking, she immediately drew a talisman and threw it to the edge of the glade. Dozens of vines flared their teeth and danced claws out of the void, binding a soul-returning Yang on the edge of the open space into rice dumplings.
  A trace of complacency appeared on the black cat's face. When he first wanted to answer that he painted by himself, he was suddenly blessed to the soul, and a sensation in his heart, thinking of his current identity.
  He is just a cat now.
  Black cat's heart is secretly lucky. If he admits that these talismans were painted by himself~EbookFREE.me~, then the witches can easily guess their identity with a little care. What's more terrible is that, unlike Kolmar, Irina often asks him about Talismanic knowledge, and she must be very familiar with Zheng Qing's habits and skills when drawing Talismans, as well as the breath remaining in the talisman paper.
  She must have determined that these Fuluos were painted by Zheng Qing.
Thinking of this, the black cat evened his ears, calmed down, took a quiet breath, and then slowly replied: "Oh...I bought these talismans from the wandering wizard. There are many on his side. Good. You can buy it without a license."
  Ilena frowned, nodded slightly, then flipped her wrist, and put the talisman paper into her arms.
  She did hear Zheng Qing mentioned selling talisman in the Wandering Bar. And she got acquainted with Zheng Qing first, in the bar of the wandering wizard. So Black Cat's answer sounded no problem. It was a coincidence at best.
  Korma’s voice interrupted the witch’s thoughts:
  "Report inspection results."
  "The inspection is complete, and the condition is normal." The black cat immediately raised his ears and replied very seriously.
   "No problem." The Gypsy Witch also nodded gently.
  Korma showed a satisfied smile on his face, waved his arm, pointed at the gap, and said nothing more:
"set off!"
