Chapter 20 - Parker Had Been Tracked

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Jiang Chen walked out of the manor.

Everyone knew what they wanted to do without Jiang Chen’s supervision in the morning. They’d long since been engrossed in their day’s work.

Parker walked over at this moment.

The Giant Wolf Fenrir was still asleep.

“Lord…”

Ah Ke bowed to Jiang Chen.

“Why aren’t you resting?”

Jiang Chen looked at Parker’s resolute face and asked with concern.

He saw Parker shake his head.

“Your Lordship, I have an uneasy premonition in my heart.”

There was a worried expression on his face.

“Why? Is it because of the Goblin tribe during the day?”

Jiang Chen asked with concern.

Parker nodded.

“This goblin tribe is very powerful. Although I was able to shake off my tail when I escaped, I still felt as if I was being watched…”

“This feeling lingered in my heart and made me restless.”

Jiang Chen also furrowed his brows when he heard Parker’s words.

“Could there be something wrong with Parker’s body?”

He began to think that Parker’s strength was strong, and there was no doubt about it at the present stage.

Generally, people like him had a sense of danger. Parker, who had been through countless battles, was definitely not speaking without reason. There had to be a reason behind it.

Jiang Chen suddenly remembered that he’d seen a tool in the system before.

It was called the eye of truth.

Jiang Chen had only seen it briefly and hadn’t paid much attention to it, because the use of the eye of truth was truly of little value.

Jiang Chen opened the suzerain’s system and found the eye of truth.

[ eye of Truth: a microscopic object that is difficult to discover. ]

In Jiang Chen’s understanding, this might be similar to the function of a magnifying glass.

But now, Jiang Chen didn’t think that way anymore. Perhaps he could use the eye of truth to check if there were any problems with Parker’s body.

Having made up his mind, he immediately spent ten gold coins to buy the eye of truth.

“Investigate!”

Jiang Chen activated the effect.

[ Parker has been placed with a tracking beacon by a Goblin Wizard. This kind of beacon will continuously locate his position for a day. The tracking beacon can only form a vague direction in the caster’s mind. ]

In the next moment, a piece of information emerged.

Jiang Chen’s expression also became grim.

The Goblins had placed tracking beacons on Parker’s body. They were definitely trying to trace the source and eliminate the root of the problem.

His territory might have already been exposed.

He had to make plans as soon as possible.

“Parker, a tracking beacon has been placed on your body.”

“It’s very likely that the goblins have already discovered the location of our territory.”

“Leave the camp immediately and advance forty to fifty miles north. Wait for me there. I’ll meet up with you after daybreak.”

“We have to keep moving to confuse the goblins.”

Jiang Chen Thought for a moment and thought of an idea.

According to the information from the eye of Truth, a tracking beacon, as a magic beacon, would only form a vague position in the caster’s mind.

In essence, it wasn’t a very clever tracking spell.

Therefore, as long as the position was kept moving, stopping, and constantly changing, it would have the effect of confusing the caster.

It was six o’clock in the morning.

The Sky in the East had already turned white, and the darkness around them had gradually dissipated.

It was estimated that in another hour or two, the sky would be completely bright.

Outside the territory, the excited wild beasts that had been howling for half the night had also disappeared without a trace.

There were dense footprints all around the territory.

Hearing Jiang Chen’s words.

Parker didn’t dare delay.

He hurriedly roused the giant wolf fenrir.

He mounted the giant wolf and was about to leave the territory.

Jiang Chen took out two portions of jerky from the warehouse and handed them to him.

They were to be used as rations for the road.

Parker took the jerky and bowed once more before riding the giant wolf Fenrir towards the north.

Jiang Chen watched Parker leave.

Lucy came to Jiang Chen’s side.

Jiang Chen turned his head with a faint smile on his face.

Wasn’t this world just like that? It was filled with dangers and opportunities.

Only by constantly exploring and constantly becoming stronger could one resolve the dangers one faced.

“Don’t you want to sleep a bit more?”

Lucy shook her head.

“I’ve already advanced to become a mage. I can recover my energy by meditating. I don’t need to sleep too much.”

“Lord, do you have any plans for today?”

Jiang Chen’s gaze looked towards the north of the territory. After the grasslands had spread for over a hundred Li, there was a stretch of low mountains.

Hearing Lucy’s question.

He only spoke two words slowly with a deep gaze.

“March North.”

“Today’s goal is to explore the north of the territory, especially that mountain forest.”

Jiang Chen pulled out his sword and pointed.

Lucy seemed to have sensed something as well.

Then, Jiang Chen spoke again.

“Lucy, your mission today is to protect the territory. I’ll bring Zhang Fei and a few spearmen north to meet up with Parker first.”

“You’ll be in charge of supervising these farmers in the collection of resources. You’ll need all the basic resources.”

“At the same time, help me keep an eye out for the conditions of the plantation. No one is allowed to set foot on it.”

The exploding potatoes would ripen in one day. If anyone were to recklessly barge in, they wouldn’t even know how they died.

At the same time, that was also one of Jiang Chen’s trump cards. It was fine if the goblins didn’t come, but if they did, they would definitely face a nightmare.

Jiang Chen gave some instructions.

He left behind a dozen or so pieces of fresh wolf meat.

He called over the leader of the spearmen, Zhang Fei, and brought along the two strongest spearmen.

Each of them held a piece of jerky as they headed north of the territory.

..

Jiang Chen didn’t rest during this period of time.

It was as if the Japs had entered the village along the way.

He dug to the east and took a look to the west.

He really did pick up a few things.

The vast majority were all sorts of money bags, copper coins, and so on

He picked up eight or nine hundred in all sorts of ways, and there were about seven or eight gold coins in total.

It was better than nothing.

He walked and stopped along the way.

An hour later, Jiang Chen saw Parker resting under a large tree in the north.

At the same time, Parker also noticed Jiang Chen.

“Parker, is there anything unusual?”

Jiang Chen came to Parker’s side and asked.

“Your lordship, everything is normal!”

“Where are we going next?”

Parker bowed.

“Let’s go northwest. Take Me to see the ruins of the temple in the forest that you discovered yesterday.”

Jiang Chen’s goal was very clear.

According to Parker, he’d found an abandoned temple in the northwest of the territory.

He’d found an abandoned temple in the dense forest by the path into the mountains.

There seemed to be two treasure chests inside.

There was nothing more pleasant than opening a treasure chest.

“My Lord, please follow me..”
