Chapter 65: 064 Acknowledge a favor here In that instant, including Shane and Tielle who were still conversing privately, everyone in Vivian’s team turned their gaze forward. But in the next second, everyone couldn’t help but pause. “There’s nothing here...” Lu Muya muttered in bewilderment. Yes. In front of everyone, apart from the uniformly worn-out road, there was nothing that could help Vivian confirm the target’s location. ... “Wait...” Only Shane, relying on his “Magic Perception” skill, clearly sensed something peculiar about this place. Vivian looked forward and spoke to everyone. “There isn’t nothing here, it’s just that we can’t see it.” Vivian’s words immediately received affirmation from the mages in the team. “I can feel the magic power flowing obscurely here.” Merica seemed to realize something and said in sudden enlightenment, “Could it be a barrier?” “Correct.” Vivian burst out laughing and said, “There must be a barrier set up here.” “And it’s a very high level barrier,” Tielle said coldly. “Shielding, concealing, protecting, and confusing—just the effects that come to mind surface-wise are already four.” “That means...” Lu Muya uncertainly said, “Is it really here?” The answer was quite obvious. If it wasn’t here, why would such a high-level barrier appear out of nowhere? Without any clues, who would believe it? “So, we’ve found the right place.” Vivian continued looking forward, then turned to Merica and asked, “Merica, can you break this barrier?” “Uh...” Merica suddenly showed a troubled expression and said, “Such a high-level barrier, even in the Elf Country, is rare, I’m not very confident.” “...Well, that’s a common setting,” Shane muttered after a long silence, then sighed, “After all, it involves space, rare and highly difficult seems justifiable, understandable.” Unfortunately, while Shane could understand, the others couldn’t. “If the target is a high-level mage capable of using Space Magic, our trip here might become problematic,” Vivian took on a solemn tone, muttering to herself, “Should we return and make extensive plans?” Evidently catching a glimpse of the target’s strength, for safety reasons, Vivian was reluctant to just barge in. The others likely shared the same thought. “I agree,” Merica was the first to express her stance, saying, “The opponent is a Space Magic user, and we don’t know if they have companions. Rushing in might lead to our complete annihilation.” “...I’m fine with either,” Tielle considered briefly, then said indifferently, “Since even the ‘Magical Sword’ can’t break through this barrier, I have no other ways to confront it.” “I... I also agree,” Lu Muya raised her hand, speaking softly, “Just barging in like this seems very impolite.” Considering everyone in Vivian’s Team was cautious of acting rashly, it was clear just how high Space Magic was regarded in their minds. This scene made Shane scratch his cheek. “That...” Shane hesitantly asked, “Do we absolutely have to meet this person?” That question caught everyone’s attention. “Yes.” Vivian also looked at Shane, and after observing him for a while, she nodded firmly, saying, “We must properly talk with this person.” This was clearly a pressing issue. Shane sensed her determination from Vivian’s tone. Thus, Shane crossed his arms and closed his eyes to think. Remembering the various ways Vivian had looked out for him and even helped hide his secret after discovering it, Shane mused inwardly. (Repaying the favor here wouldn’t be bad.) With that thought, Shane opened his eyes and lifted his gaze ahead. Immediately, Shane took a deep breath. “Checking the water meter—!” A loud shout burst from Shane’s mouth, resonating around, lingering for a long while.
