Ake Town woke up to the noise of caravans in the early morning. Li Wen was walking on the streets of West District, his eyes constantly sweeping over the people in these caravans.

She wasn't picking people to steal;

According to Pastor Mog, the connectors of the Moon Worshippers department are running a certain chamber of commerce, and their logo is an arc moon split in two. If they want to collect all the sacrifices needed to promote Witch Disciple, perhaps they are the only ones in the entire Ake Town or even Black Dragon Territory.

The caravan that transported Moonlight Potion was also one of their people.

In order to avoid the risk of exposure, they do not have a fixed base in Ake Town, so if you want to find them, Li Wen must first find their caravan.

And just when she was thinking about how long she could keep searching like this, a figure appeared in the distance and her eyes lit up.

Isn't this Take?

The other party is alone at this time. He must have just come back from outside. Judging from the direction, he is probably on his way to the church. He is probably hoping to find Li Wen in the church. After all, the promised reward has not yet been delivered.

So Li Wen walked straight towards Take. She did not talk to him directly, but bumped into Take like an ordinary passerby, and then turned into an alley corner.

After waiting in the corner of the alley for a while, there were indeed footsteps heard.

"I thought you died there."

Take scratched his face and looked particularly happy. Of course, what she was thankful for might not be Li Wen's life or death, but the promised reward. After all, if Li Wen died, no one would be able to deliver the reward.

Li Wen certainly didn't believe what the other party said. If she really thought so, why would she go to church.

"In the far west of Black Dragon Territory, there is a temple made of red stone at the top of the Askant Mountains. This is the training center built by Bard's White Blade Society. They allow anyone who can climb to the top of the mountain and pass the trial to join the organization, and then teach them extraordinary skills. There is a village at the foot of Ascant Mountain, and the people there know the shortcut to the top of the mountain."

As for what compensation should be given to Take, Li Wen has already thought about it. After all, they played a great role in fighting against Fire Mage.

Bard's White Blade Society is an organization serving the god of Calamity Nightmare lineage - Bard the Severed Blade, and its extraordinary path of practice is Conquest Path.

Take in the previous life was the transcendent person of Conquest Path, which is sufficiently compatible with this path. Bard's White Blade Society is undoubtedly a good match for him.

Take didn't react at the first time. She was stunned for a while and suddenly smiled. Isn't this the reward she needs? Hidden career clues, and it seems that she is not the only one who can use this.

If you sell this piece of information, you can probably make hundreds of thousands of r. Of course, Take would never do such a thing. The reward for this information was earned by her and her water friends, and she should share it with them.

"Ah, thank you very much, this is exactly what we need!"

"Askant Mountains You can go right away, but before that, I have a little thing to ask you."

*

After Take launched his appeal, it didn't take long for clues about Shattered Crescent Moon to be sent to Li Wen - someone saw a carriage with a similar symbol hanging in front of a dilapidated house in a slum area.

Li Wen followed Take and one of her water friends to the southwest of Ake Town.

"Ah, the reward really doesn't matter, we didn't really help much."

Take has always refused to pay Li Wen. After all, she is not stupid. Isn't building a good relationship with this npc better than any reward? Anyway, she has this thigh firmly in her arms. Haven't you seen that such a powerful magician has been given to others?

Since Take said so, then Li Wen must...

"You can take this staff. I can't use it. You can take Black Market to deal with it, but you cannot use it."

Li Wen doesn't like to owe favors very much. Fire Mage This black mahogany stick is useless anyway. There may be hidden dangers in keeping it with you, so it's better to hand it over as payment.

Take There is no other way but to accept it.

After arriving at the destination, Li Wen realized that this "broken house" turned out to be a broken house, not an adjective. It was as if it had experienced a serious fire. There was no roof or door. The walls were burned black, and part of the wall had collapsed or burned into carbon.

And the carriage said to have the Shattered Crescent Moon pattern was staying in front of the broken house.

Li Wen did not step forward rashly, but looked at Take.

"You really don't need help?"

The other party's pupils were staring straight at Li Wen, with some kind of longing in them.

Li Wen shook her head. She was just here to trade, not to brush off her capital. What happened next was not suitable for letting too many people know.

Take left with his companions with a look of regret, and after they left, Li Wen's eyes moved to the carriage again.

The carriage was clearly illuminated by the morning sunlight, but it seemed to be covered by an invisible layer of hazy shadow.

That is the remnant of Night Path's power. Unlike Shadow Path, shadow does not exist in light, but night can exist in light.

Judging from this, she must have found the right place.

Li Wen walked to the carriage. The carriage was empty and there was nothing, so she walked into the shabby house again.

The inside was empty and dilapidated as seen from the outside, but Li Wen found many footprints on the charred floor.

These footprints were almost all over the house, except for a small area in the corner where many footprints stopped.

Li Wen walked forward, pulled out Bone-Gnawing Short Sword and knocked it on the floor.

Judging from the feedback, it was empty inside.

A secret door?

Li Wen tried to insert the dagger into it, but could feel obvious resistance. This was not a normal secret door.

There should be some kind of spell or ritual attached to the other side of the secret door. Only by corresponding means can the secret door be opened, otherwise it can only be broken through forcefully.

Li Wen is not looking for trouble, so naturally she will not use too rough methods, but this does not mean that she has no other methods.

She used her dagger to carve two-thirds of a circle on the secret door, then placed the dagger in the center of the circle and recited the incantation:

"A half-open door, a closed door, a key to nothing, a key to a hole!"

With the injection of magic power, Bone-Gnawing Short Sword seemed to turn into a key that could open any door. He inserted it gently into the secret door, Li Wen turned the dagger, and with the sound of the door lock opening, the entire secret door slowly melted with the dagger as the center until a hole appeared that could accommodate one person through.

Inside the cave entrance is a dark secret passage that leads nowhere.

Li Wen confirmed her status and had 31 magic powers. This was the result of her upgrade and a whole night of meditation.

This magical power is enough for her to handle several battles.

So Li Wen jumped down from the hole without any further hesitation.
