That filled him with rage.
He seemed to be a man with feelings after all, capable of empathizing with the tragic fate of his own kind.
Lotie assessed Lu Cang's changing emotions.
Although Lu Cang kept his thoughts hidden, his emotional shifts and the way he handled things still revealed what kind of person he was.
That was also the power of the mind.
The anger and disgust lasted only a few seconds before Lu Cang regained his composure.
He looked down over the island once more.
The entire island was covered in wards. The outermost layer was an illusion ward meant to conceal the island.
But Lu Cang's perception couldn't be blocked.
Effects meant to disorient had little impact on him.
The illusions Lu Cang couldn't handle were those that arose from within the mind.
As for the wards...
Lotie watched Lu Cang as well.
"Skin Shedding Array."
"Skin Sealing Array."
"Skin Severing Array."
Layer upon layer of arrays completely enveloped the island. Wards were the most common and versatile means of concealment in this world.
There was hardly any important location that wasn't covered by wards.
Lotie was curious to see what Lu Cang would do.
How would he break through the wards? The second trial had already tested Lu Cang's strength. He could instantly kill Tier 7 Second Molt monsters.
Perhaps, if he went all out, he could use sheer destructive force to blast the entire ward apart.
But that would inevitably alert the enemy.
If they'd chosen to set up here, they must have prepared contingencies. And with the enemy on guard, destroying their ritual would be even harder.
Combat strength was certainly important.
But... combat strength alone made it difficult to counter most schemes.
Show me.
How exactly do you plan to break through...
