"No, it's completely damaged."

Looking at the dull communication crystal in front of him, Conan Knight was frustrated. Communication crystal is a unique communication product of this continent, and its function is similar to video chat. However, because it consumes a lot of energy, has a complex structure and is expensive, only various organizations can afford it, and ordinary civilians cannot use it. And now this communication crystal is even more miserable, it was directly dismantled.

Looking at the communication crystal in front of him, Fang Zheng shrugged. He had also learned from Conan Knight how to use the communication crystal. Its principle was similar to radio communication, but the enemy was not stupid either. They also knew how to suppress communication with electronic warfare... If it were another dimension, this would be a high-tech war.

"Mr. Fang Zheng, please come up with a solution. To be honest, I don't have any good ideas."

"Um……"

Hearing Knight Conan's request, Fang Zheng frowned, then thought for a moment before speaking.

"Under the current circumstances, I think the most important thing for us is to deliver the intelligence here to the front and rear. Since the other side has cut off our contact in this way, then restoring contact is naturally the most important thing. Therefore..."

As he spoke, Fang Zheng looked at the three people in front of him - in addition to Conan, Garrison and Fina had also come here. After hearing about what happened to the base, the two were also shocked, and of course it was their duty to stay and help.

"I suggest that we split into three groups. One group goes to the fortress to tell them about the situation in the rear and hope that they can come up with a solution. Another group goes to the rear to inform the Temple headquarters of what happened here, and the last group goes to track down those cultists. Since they have cut off contact, they must be planning to do something with this. We must find out the purpose of these cultists so that we can be more or less prepared."

“This is a great idea!”

Hearing this, Knight Conan's eyes lit up and he nodded repeatedly. It's not that he hadn't thought of a similar method, but it wasn't as thorough as Fang Zheng's. Of course, Knight Conan didn't have enough manpower at that time, so even if he had thought of it, he probably couldn't do it.

But now there is still a question, that is, how to group them?

"I-I can track down those cultists!"

But to everyone's surprise, Garrison was the first to step forward.

"I'm a local, I'm very familiar with the environment here, and I've been hunting in the forest with my brother since I was a child, so I'm also good at tracking. I can definitely catch up with those cultists!"

"no."

But unexpectedly, Fang Zheng shook his head.

"Tracking the cultists is the most important task among the three groups. All the Order Fortress and the rear need is accurate intelligence. I think as long as both sides realize that something is wrong, they will definitely take measures to deal with it. These measures will only waste time, but the purpose of the cultists is of utmost importance. We don't know what the cultists want to do. But from what Knight Conan said, their actions were obviously premeditated, not impulsive. And you are just an ordinary person. If something unexpected happens, no one can save you, and the clues will be interrupted."

"What should we do then, Mr. Fang Zheng?"

Hearing this, Fina asked anxiously, while Fang Zheng glanced at everyone and then made a decision.

"How about this, Knight Conan, you are responsible for contacting the Order Fortress. You are the only familiar face they have. Only if you go to the Order Fortress in person can you dispel their concerns. As for the rear... I can only trouble Garrison and Miss Fina to go there. Garrison is a local and is familiar with the terrain. Miss Fina is an apprentice priest of the temple. As long as Knight Conan writes a letter and asks Miss Fina to take it to the temple headquarters, there should be a response over there. As for those cultists..."

As he spoke, Fang Zheng pointed at himself.

"Just leave it to me. Although I'm not particularly familiar with this place, I'm still somewhat capable of tracking. And I'm confident in my own strength. Even if I can't win, I can still run away."

"Isn't this... a little too dangerous?"

Although Fang Zheng's allocation made sense, Knight Conan was still a little worried.

"Mr. Fang Zheng, are you really okay on your own?"

"Yes, Mr. Fang Zheng, it's too dangerous for you to be alone. It's not safe here, especially in winter..."

At this moment Garrison also started to persuade.

"Not to mention the Forest of No Return, the Dark Swamp is also a very scary place. It is said that there are many places where even the great knights dare not go deep alone. If you go alone, what if something happens?"

"Um……"

Hearing the two people's persuasion, Fang Zheng also frowned slightly. Although he had considered this aspect, he did not expect that this place would be so dangerous. Although Fang Zheng felt that he had time to manipulate it, plus two soul stones, it was impossible to overturn it. But who knows? After all, no one can guarantee such things, right? Not to mention that Fang Zheng's dimensional teleportation is still in the cooling period. If he encounters some troubles that he can't handle, he will really have nowhere to run.

But at this moment, Fina stood up and raised her hand timidly.

"Well... I have a suggestion. Why don't I go with Mr. Fang Zheng?"

"you?"

Hearing this, Fang Zheng was stunned for a moment, while Fina nodded vigorously.

"Yes, according to Mr. Fang Zheng's plan, two teams need to rush to notify the fortress and the rear, but there are no spare war horses in the base right now. Only the two horses we use to pull the cart are of some use. If Garrison and I go together, it will slow down Garrison's speed. Moreover, according to Mr. Conan, the other side has a destruction wizard... I am a priest of the temple, and I can also be considered a spellcaster. I think I should be able to help a little in this regard."

"this……"

Fang Zheng was a little tempted by Fina's suggestion. Although this trainee priestess was stubborn, she was still capable. And she was right. After Fang Zheng came to this world, the only spellcasters he had seen were Miss M and the Lich Lord, and both of them were more bizarre than the other. Needless to say, the Lich Lord was beaten by Malte and Stone. But that soft girl astrologer was able to tinker with a star spirit in a mysterious way, which was very telling. The other party had a destruction mage and a spellcaster, so he couldn't be too arrogant. Even if he had time to manipulate this ability, if he capsized in the gutter, he would be in tears.

What Fina said was also true. There were only two horses here, one for Garrison and one for Conan Knight, so naturally there was no place for Fina. Now was a time of racing against time, and it would be inconvenient for two people to share a horse and it would also slow down the speed, so Fang Zheng finally agreed to Fina's request. He took her with him, while Conan Knight and Garrison split up and headed to the Fortress of Order and the Temple respectively.

Time was running out, and since the decision had been made, everyone didn't waste any more time. Although the war horses in the base were killed by the cultists, the harnesses were still there. So it didn't take much time for everyone to untie the two horses used to pull the carriage from the carriage, put on the harnesses, and after a simple preparation, they set off immediately. With Garrison and Knight Conan leaving one after another, soon, only Fang Zheng and Fina were left in the entire base.

"Mr. Fang Zheng, when are we leaving?"

"Let's prepare some supplies first. Unlike them, our situation may be a little more difficult, and I... need to make some preparations."

"OK."

Hearing Fang Zheng's order, Fina nodded without hesitation, and then immediately went to the warehouse to prepare supplies. Although these cultists took people away, they did not take away the supplies. Of course, most of the things were burned by them, but there were always some supplies that survived. For a stronghold, it might not be enough. But for Fang Zheng and Fina, it was enough.

"call……"

Seeing Fina turn around and leave, Fang Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, and then he stretched out his hand and looked at the spirit crystal in his hand. This was what Fang Zheng asked Knight Conan for before he left. Although he didn't know what Fang Zheng wanted these for, Knight Conan still gave him all the remaining dozen spirit crystals in the fortress. After all, this is the rear of the Order Fortress, and there are tens of thousands of monsters to kill every year, so of course there are more spirit crystals than other places. Although the reserve spirit crystals in the warehouse have been robbed by the cultists, Knight Conan, as the commander of the stronghold, still has some personal property, so he gave it to Fang Zheng.

Fang Zheng naturally felt embarrassed about this... so he accepted it.

“Transform!”

As Fang Zheng whispered, the spirit crystal in his palm began to gradually decompose into light particles and then disappeared into the air. At the same time, the transformed crystal energy also appeared in front of Fang Zheng.

"485 crystal energy? Adding the previous one... it's almost 575 crystal energy... that's enough!"

Looking at the crystal energy in front of him, Fang Zheng clenched his hands excitedly.

Next, it's time to summon your own angel sister! !
