Translator: 549690339
In the blink of an eye, as everyone realized that Bianca White, who had been closely following Leo Ray, suddenly disappeared into thin air.
They all subconsciously showed a solemn expression, bringing their senses to the maximum and gripping their weapons tightly.
However, due to the chaos of various auras within the Mirage.
It was impossible to locate any potential enemies through their senses alone.
On the other side, Gideon Black and Scarlett, positioned at the head and tail of the team, showed faces full of confusion.
In principle, this naturally formed Mirage would follow certain patterns when operating.
It would not cause a single person in the team to leave and vanish out of thin air.
It was clear that there was something unusual going on here.
“What on earth is going on?”
As everything had happened in the blink of an eye, Leo Ray’s sharp gaze moved left and right amid his confusion, while he surveyed his surroundings.
By now, their location was very close to the heart of the Mirage—the eye of the illusion.
The illusions they encountered were on a completely different level from what they had faced in the forest at the beginning.
Therefore, even if they tried their best to focus, other than making the scene before them slightly blurry, it would not have any other effects.
Just then, a clear and puzzled voice suddenly reached everyone’s ears: “My
Lord, what has happened?”
Hearing this, the subordinates all showed astonished expressions. Without a doubt, this was Bianca White’s voice.
On the other hand, upon hearing the voice so close to him, Leo Ray was momentarily stunned, then revealed a suddenly enlightened expression.
It seemed that, unless something unexpected happened, the answer was already obvious.
That was, Bianca White did not disappear into thin air but had been there all along.
However, due to some unknown reason, she suddenly became invisible.
“Apart from the Blessed Invisibility Cloak I gave to Jasper Richardson, I have the other two Invisibility Cloaks with me. How did this girl turn invisible?” Confused, Leo Ray described the situation to the seemingly empty air.
“My Lord, are you saying that I am invisible? But I didn’t do anything.”
Immediately after, Bianca White’s surprised clear voice sounded once again.
Then, her voice clearly became more frantic, continuing: “My Lord, will I not be able to turn back to normal?”
“So that’s how it is!” On the other side, Scarlett’s eyes brightened up, as if she thought of something, and her expression turned to one of sudden realization.
At the same time, because she pressed too hard, her finger, which had been placed on the tip of her nose, punctured a pimple, causing blood to seep out.
While wincing in pain, Scarlett took a pink handkerchief and frantically wiped the redness from her nose.
At the same time, she spoke: “Shouldn’t Wolf-girl have been wearing an Illusion Cloak the whole time? Try taking off the hooded cap and see.”
“Understood, I’ll give it a try.” The clear voice rang out.
As expected, following Scarlett’s instructions, when Bianca White removed her hooded cap,
A slender figure with fluffy ears appeared before everyone’s watchful eyes.
At this point, Bianca White had returned to her normal state.
“So, that’s it.”
Seeing this, Gideon Black adjusted his glasses, revealing an enlightened expression, and explained: “It seems that this Illusion Cloak itself has resonated with this Mirage, resulting in the additional invisibility effect.”
“That’s right, that’s it.” On the other side, Scarlett furrowed her brows, touching her slightly red nose.Continuing, they said, “Before this, since we were far away from the eye of the mirage, we didn’t notice any abnormalities. However, as we got closer, this resonance effect unconsciously reached a critical point, leading to the sudden occurrence of invisibility.”
Scarlett added with a grin, “Of course, this additional invisibility effect is purely accidental. If we leave this mirage or move away from the eye of the mirage, it will naturally cease to exist.”
“I understand. I didn’t expect the Illusion Cloak to have such a magical effect when combined with this Mirage.”
Upon hearing this, Leo Ray nodded thoughtfully.
In this way, the entire sequence of events became clear.
After leaving Milan Town, everyone, including Leo Ray, stopped wearing the Illusion Cloak.
Only Bianca White, at Leo Ray’s command, continued to wear the cloak to hide her werewolf features, which ultimately led to the invisibility incident.
“In that case, just in case, let’s all put on the Illusion Cloak,” Leo Ray said after a brief moment of pondering.
Without any doubt, it was still unclear whether there were any other people or Demon Beasts present in the location of the eye of the Mirage.
Therefore, this would be a safer option.
“Yes, My Lord!” All the subordinates saluted simultaneously and put on their Illusion Cloaks again, immediately disappearing from sight.
Seeing this, Leo Ray also put on an Illusion Cloak with a flick of his mind.
Since Illusion Cloaks of the same batch could not interact with each other, Leo Ray could still see his subordinates once he put on his hooded cap.
At this point, everyone on their side entered the state of invisibility.
“Alright, let’s continue,” Leo Ray made a gesture to move forward.
They crossed the bustling commercial street, and not far away, a gigantic black castle appeared between the towering buildings.
Judging from the distance, this majestic black castle was located in the center of the city, which was clearly the power center of this mysterious city.
“We’ve only encountered ordinary civilians and soldiers on the streets. I wonder if there’s anyone surprising inside,” Leo Ray said while squinting, an expectant look on his face.
It was hard not to be amazed by this Mirage that closely resembled a real city.
Although the people they encountered were not real, they could still sense their breath and heard their voices, making it quite special.
“My Lord, the Eye of the Mirage is inside that castle,” Scarlett, who was at the end of the group, approached Leo Ray and informed him.
“Then let’s head straight there,” Leo Ray nodded and waved heroically.
In this way, after passing through several bustling streets and neatly arranged residential areas, the large black castle started to become clearer in everyone’s eyes.
However, just as they were about to approach the area where the castle was located, they found several mysterious figures in black clothing on the square ahead.
At this moment, Leo Ray could clearly sense that these mysterious individuals were not illusions but real people who were actually standing there, just like them..
