Don't call me evil god

Chapter 957: Unexpected Cooperation
Just do it.

After entering the silent woodland.

Gray shrank back, held his breath, hunched his waist, and moved carefully in it, being as cautious as possible.

The method for believers seeking knowledge is much simpler.

Master Petunia rummaged through his bag, pulled out a scroll, and tore it open with ease.

There should have been a "tearing" sound, but after a large ball of translucent purple light burst out of the scroll, the surroundings immediately became unusually quiet.

Seeing this, the companion next to him boldly opened his mouth and tried it.

I saw his upper and lower lips opening and closing constantly, as if he was saying something, but no sound came out.

"Nice! As expected! The only downside to expensive things is that they are expensive!"

Petunia happily reported the situation in the light screen group chat.

"The [Silent Field] magic has taken effect. For the next 10 minutes, any movement in the surrounding environment will be silenced, with me as the center!"

“Don’t worry about making any noise!”

Master Pei has always been good at using money to solve problems.

The special 4th-level magic [Silent Field] is a higher-level version of the magic [Amplification].

This magic is quite unpopular because its effect... does not distinguish between friend and foe.

As long as you are within the range of the magic, any sound will be forcibly eliminated during the effect period, entering a completely silent state.

If you want to create a quiet space for secret meetings, this thing is completely useless because you can't say anything.

Unpopular, with a very small scope of application.

Therefore, generally not many wizards would try to master this magic, let alone copy it onto a scroll.

For powerful magic above level 4, no matter how bizarre its effects are, the materials needed to copy the scroll are extremely precious. This alone is a considerable expense. Add to that the timeliness of the magic scroll itself. If you fail to sell it before it dissipates, you will suffer a huge loss.

Therefore, the price of magic scrolls such as [Silent Field] has always been expensive, and one even needs to find a specific high-level wizard to make a reservation.

But what Master Petunia lacks the least now is money.

After the monster red tide ended, his father, Viscount Tostin, finally faced the reality, changed his mind, began to acknowledge the power of the God of Knowledge, and approved of Petwin's choice.

Master Pei had indeed achieved his goal of proving himself to be better than his brothers and sisters, and was now a legitimate Tier 3 professional.

He even got a personal promise from his father that he would inherit the glory of Viscount Tostin.

As long as he informed them, he could use the family wealth at will.

But now Petunia no longer aims to inherit his father's viscount title.

He has witnessed the vastness of the world, experienced great adventures that even his father had never experienced, and experienced the effects of Norman's blessing as an eyewitness.

Pete Twain now realized that the world was changing rapidly and unprecedentedly under the influence of the god of knowledge.

His followers will undoubtedly be the first beneficiaries of this great change.

But that requires them to work hard for it.

If he stayed in the family estate and waited for death, he would probably be abandoned by this change like the corrupt nobles in the royal capital.

To keep up with the pace of change.

He chose to continue his adventure, joined the investigation team, and came to the deep area.

……

The originally tricky "sound" problem instantly became safe with the help of the [Silent Field].

Even if they laughed and danced loudly in the Silent Woods, these actions would not make any noise while the magic was in effect.

My own safety was guaranteed. The next step was to find a way to attract the monster that attacked by sound.

Dolan completed this combination easily.

Dolan took out a bunch of colorful balls from his bag, picked out one that was glowing with golden light, and then threw it hard into the distance!
"Oh!"

The ball came into contact with the dark vines that were everywhere in the Silent Woods and exploded with a muffled sound.

After the muffled sound, all kinds of magical "sounds" began to appear at the explosion site.

“Thump, thump, thump… huff, huff…”

First there was the sound of panicked running, and the sound of leather boots stepping on the ground was extremely clear.

This was followed by the sound of heavy, rapid breathing.

It sounded like a guy was running through there.

The 2nd level wilderness magic [Bait Trap], when the trap is triggered, the sound recorded in the trap will be regenerated to attract the attention of the target affected by the trap.

This divine art is also of a rather unpopular type.

It is not as simple and crude as the second-level [Freezing Trap], [Explosive Trap], [Venomous Snake Trap] or the first-level [Lasso Trap], and has strong versatility.

The effect of "bait" is just to release a pre-prepared sound.

Other than that, there is no lethality.

Most of the time, the effect of this thing is at most to scare people and distract their attention for a moment.

Rangers are basically unwilling to use their precious energy to practice this wilderness magic.

Dolan is an exception.

He has always tried to pursue a comprehensive career, whether it be a rogue, mage, warrior, ranger, warlock, or priest, as long as he can learn it, he will find a way to master something.

This thing is a useless magic for professional rangers.

But for Dolan, whose six-dimensional attributes are limited and who is qualified to learn very few things...it's better to have something than nothing!
Anyway, his main point is to know a little bit of everything, and it never hurts to learn more things!
Now, the [bait trap] comes in handy.

Throw out the [Silent Field] within its effective range, and the sound of the trap will instantly spread throughout the surroundings.

The unpopular divine arts and unpopular magic form a perfect combination.

Gray: “?!”

He was so frightened that his face changed drastically. He prostrated himself on the spot, pretending that he was a dead body lying there. In addition to holding his breath, he even wished that even his heartbeat would stop, so as to reduce the possible noise he might make.

He doesn't want to die here!
The believers who had prepared in advance stared intently at the place where the bait trap was effective.

A few seconds later.

Without any warning, a black shadow shot out from the boundless darkness dozens of meters away!

Jump towards the bait trap!
Its speed was so fast that even the rangers among the believers who had activated the [Eagle Eye Technique] could only barely catch the afterimage left by the monster in their field of vision.

Yes, afterimage.

Gray certainly wasn't exaggerating.

This monster wasn't very big, and it didn't have any threatening aura when it appeared, but based on its extremely fast speed alone, Dolan would bet that it was as threatening as a 4th-level monster!
The believers weighed the issue silently in their hearts and came to the conclusion:
"I absolutely can't react!"

If it really targets you, even if you are well prepared, you may not be able to stop its sneak attack.

It's just too fast!
