Chapter 534: Action Plan

ring snow from the roof and the yard, otherwise, the roof is likely to collapse. Most households in the village are also doing the same thing.During this time, the sounds of children's laughter and pl...Corlia Nasi was now certain that this thing was definitely in the hands of those bastards. If it were family, they wouldn't have had her come to rescue them at the first sign of trouble; they would have told her to run! Her own kin knew full well she wasn't capable of rescuing them.

Next, we split into two groups. Grey's beast will take Laya and Glia to the bandits' lair you investigated earlier. Using a wind element magic circle, we'll silently deliver the sleeping agent to them.

Leia, you use magic to disguise yourself as Corlia. Gray and I will pose as your assistants and slowly walk in the direction they indicated, drawing their attention.

Raul trailed far behind us, keeping out of sight and acting as our backup. He would provide support or call for help depending on the situation.

Everyone agreed with the arrangement of ripples and it was considered the best way to utilize everyone's strengths.

"Raul, do you have anything to counteract the sedative Don't let us be knocked out too, this wouldn't be fun."

R ripples turned to look at Raoul.

Here, one person has a leaf. When crushed, the transparent sap applied under the nostrils and around the eyes can keep you awake.

Raul gave everyone a small, brown leaf about the size of a quail egg and explained how to use it. Everyone carefully took it.

And at this moment, Leia had arrived before Golya and asked for two strands of her red hair. Then, she opened her magic circle, placing the red hair in its center. The magic circle instantly emitted a burst of red light, shrouding Leia directly. Once the magic circle disappeared, two Golyas appeared before everyone.

Miss Leia's disguise is very successful. To avoid being exposed, I'm afraid you'll have to wear my clothes.

Golia, shaking off her previous sadness and frustration, was now full of spirit. With the help she received, she was ready to follow her plan and, with all her might, rescue her family.

Leia smiled and didn't put up any pretense, she changed into Corlia's pink dress, and then the two parted ways.

Watching the black panther disappear again into the sky, aided by its phantom beast, Leia withdrew her gaze and said to Ripple:

Let's go too!

Next, Leia disguised as Corlia entered the forest under the protection of Ripple and Gray. Raul acted as backup, staying a kilometer behind Ripple and the others. If the plan failed, he would call for help from his family, ensuring that not everyone would be implicated.

As they ventured deeper into the woods, Gray soon felt like they were being watched. He coughed, and everyone instinctively rubbed the pulverized, transparent liquid around their nostrils and eyes.

Leia then deliberately lowered her voice and said:

"My relatives told me through the blood mirror that they should be brought to this area."

"Golia Miss, are you sure this isn't a trap"

Ripples asked intentionally.

"He shouldn't. My family wouldn't lie to me."

"However, so far no traces of anyone have been found. We should still be careful."

On the other side, Grey spoke up, his tone clearly unconvinced by this "Miss Golia" seeking help.

As soon as he finished speaking, a magic circle lit up beneath their feet, encircling all three of them. Then, a muscular, tall man accompanied by six burly men appeared before them.

"Miss Golia, thank you for bringing them here!"

"Humph! You were indeed deceiving us!"

Grey's sword was already at "Gallia"'s throat.

You bunch of bastards, I'll never cooperate with you, what did you do to my family

"Haha! They are doing very well, staying with us. Miss Golia, let's go with them!"

The man laughed loudly.

This time, they're really going to make a fortune. Besides Miss Galia, they've attracted a big fish, clearly from a wealthy family. As long as they control the other party, they won't be short of gold coins.

But he was a little too cocky. The next second, the people behind him fell down one after another without warning. When he turned back to look, he also fell headfirst to the ground and lost consciousness.

Grey quickly retracted the sword from his lady's neck, charging out first. His blade flashed, ending those men in a few strikes. Then, he searched their bodies for spatial equipment and tossed it into a leather pouch at his waist.

Immediately following, “Golia” summoned a fire elemental magic circle, incinerating the corpses and erasing all traces.

Grey closed his eyes and sensed for a moment before speaking to the two of them:

"My beast, Black Cloud, has reached the cave. The people inside should be down by now. He urged us to meet up there as quickly as possible."

Because of the contract connection, Gray received the message from Black Cloud transmitted through the contract seal immediately.

"Let's go!"

This time, Gray led the way, with Leah trailing behind, holding her skirt up. Ripple brought up the rear and even took a moment to whistle at Raoul, who replied with a birdcall. Then they picked up their pace and dashed towards the bandits' lair.

Lara was afraid there might be stragglers. As the black cloud folded its wings and landed, she immediately cast a containment spell, enveloping the entire cave before helping Coralia leap down from the cloud.

After Golia landed, she retracted her beast spirit, Aein, and was about to rush in immediately, but was stopped by Layla.

"Miss Corlia, the situation inside is unclear. If there are any quick reactions and people who haven't been drugged, you going in would be walking into a trap. We should wait for Young Master and Miss Lyra to arrive and then go in together."

Goli knew Leah was right, she could only suppress her anxiety and wait for the other three.

About half an hour later, the three ripples arrived at the cave and met with Coralia.

Looking at the empty cave mouth, Lian Ri's brows furrowed, and she directly asked:

"Isn't there even a single soldier standing guard here"

We didn't see anyone when we arrived.

La Ye gave an affirmative reply.

At this time, Gray retracted his beast and came to Lyra's side. He also had the same question as Ripple, so he immediately said:

Beware of scams!

"Cori"

A cry suddenly came from the cave, but it was cut short, clearly having been silenced by someone.

With a flash of her amethyst eyes, she lowered her voice and said to Corlia:

"Have your beast companion A Yin assist Sir Grey by going in first. Through the contract, relay what your beast sees to us so we have a clear picture of the cave's situation before we make our move."

I guess most of them were probably drugged, otherwise they wouldn't be hiding inside luring you in for an ambush. They would have just rushed out to grab you already.

The ripples' words soothed Corilia well. She nodded, releasing her mythical beast from between her brows. Aein immediately wrapped around Gray.

"Plus one for me!"

In the end, Ripple took a step to Grey's side, letting Corlia's beast hide both of them.

"Lyra, protect them!"

This is the last sentence that ripples left behind before they disappear.d intelligent eldest prince."Master Huiyuan, thank you so much for your help this time.""Amitabha! As long as the crown prince enters Guoshi Temple, this old monk will ensure his safety."Huiyuan imme...
