Chapter 88 Grouping
  While Ms. Lisa was preparing, the blonde girl Michelle held up a crystal clear vial, lowered her head and sniffed the specially prepared aromatic essential oil inside, and quickly entered a strange meditative state.

Her eyelashes trembled slightly, her eyes were blurred, and her pupils seemed to have lost focus, looking towards the unknown world.

"Michelle!"

Ms. Lisa's drink came, and the girl's eyes narrowed as if conditioned by reflex, and she looked towards the water mirror in the silver basin.

The brilliance floated in the water mirror, as if there were scenes of broken images flashing rapidly. Zhu Mingyao stood not far away and squinted his eyes for a few peeks. He felt dizzy and couldn't distinguish anything.

"Sure enough, he specializes in the art. It seems that he really doesn't have any talent for divination." The young man thought to himself that he should practice honestly and wait until he reaches a higher level to naturally awaken his magical powers on a whim.

Unlike his confused look, Michelle in front of the silver basin looked attentively. The girl's lake-like eyes reflected the changing brilliance on the surface of the water mirror, as if she was searching for something carefully.

However, judging from the slight beads of sweat that silently appeared on her face, this move was obviously not as easy as it seemed.

After a moment, the girl suddenly moved slightly and whispered:
  "found it!"

The people who had been waiting for a long time perked up and immediately gathered around.

Michelle didn't bother to wipe the fine sweat on the tip of her nose and raised her head excitedly.

"I saw him! It's in the mountains ahead, about thirty or forty kilometers away."

"What's the specific location? What's the surrounding environment like?"

Charles looked solemn, with a somewhat capable look on his slightly chubby face, and asked for details seriously.

"It's dark, the light is very dim, and it's hard to see clearly. It's surrounded by rocks. It doesn't look like it's in the open air. It seems to be underground or semi-underground..." The girl frowned slightly and said with some uncertainty.

"Like underground or semi-underground?" Agent Charles thought for a moment and recalled the information.

"I remember that several towns around here were famous for their mining industry a long time ago. After the minerals are exhausted, there should be many abandoned tunnels left..."

"It's very possible." Ms. Lisa heard the implication of his words and nodded in agreement.

"Although Michelle is not very proficient in using her abilities, and the details of her 'seeing' are not very clear, she is generally correct."

She patted the remaining spice powder on her hands and continued:

"Besides, I also secretly conducted a quick divination as a reference. Although the feedback results are a bit vague, they also indicate that the target is right in front of us."

"Miss Michelle, are you definitely the suspect in the information?" Charles cautiously confirmed again.

The girl's little head was buzzing like a chicken pecking at rice, and her golden hair flickered up and down.

"Tall and thin, with an aboriginal appearance. I felt blood and death in him. He had obviously killed someone not long ago. His appearance and aura matched him!"

After hearing this, Agent Charles no longer had any doubts. After a brief exchange with Ms. Lisa, he began to assign tasks to everyone.

"Mr. Bob, I leave the pursuit to you. I will send a team of armed agents to coordinate the operation."

Charles paused and continued: "We will conduct supplementary divination at the temporary station here every once in a while to correct the position. Please keep in touch at any time and do not go alone rashly to avoid unnecessary danger."

He turned his head and turned his gaze to Zhu Mingyao.

"As for you, MR Zhu, please lead the remaining team of agents here to protect the two diviners." The young man raised his eyebrows when he heard this, with a look of surprise on his face: "Am I not going to participate in the battle?"

——Hey, if you don’t let me go, how can I get reward points?
  Do you really think of me as a mere bodyguard?

He complained in his heart, but with a sincere suggestion on his face:
  "I think it's safer to go with the two Mr. Bobs..."

Zhu Mingyao raised his left hand slightly and said, "In this rugged mountain environment, if the target is bent on escaping, it may be difficult for those agents wearing heavy equipment to keep up with the two voodoo masters. It is best to leave them alone." An extraordinary person will follow and provide support.”

He paused for a moment and then added:

"And according to the information obtained from divination, the target is likely to be hiding in an abandoned tunnel. I happen to have some means suitable for searching and fighting in dark and narrow environments."

What he said was so sensible that Charles couldn't help but feel a little shaken. He originally planned to be cautious and protect the precious newcomer "Prophet" first, but now it seems that he was a little too conservative.

Didn't Michelle say that the target is at least twenty or thirty kilometers away from where they are now?

This is a mountainous and hilly landform. It is not on flat land. There are no roads at all. Especially here, there are ravines and undulations. There are steep slopes with exposed rocks everywhere. A group of ordinary agents relying on equipment are thrown in. It doesn’t take half a day. Kung Fu might not even be able to complete the distance. If the target is discovered and flees in advance, pursuit will be impossible.

Charles couldn't help but hesitate. Although the main purpose of this mission was to train newcomers, so many people were dispatched. It would be unjustifiable if the mission failed without success.

His position was responsible for external coordination and liaison, and improvising command was not his specialty, so he was hesitant for a while.

While he was trying to find a solution, he suddenly felt a shadow shaking in front of his eyes.

"It's not necessary!"

The old black warlock who came over at some point said in an indifferent tone.

"It's just a fugitive, so there's no need to go through so much trouble. Besides—"

He glanced at the young man and then said coldly:
  "We brothers are not used to partnering with other extraordinary beings, especially... some inexperienced little guys."

To Old Bob's surprise, after hearing these unkind words, Zhu Mingyao did not get angry, but his eyes flickered slightly, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he smiled slightly, without any argument.

Old Bob had already thought of his words, but when he saw that the young man didn't say anything back, he felt a little stuck for the time being.

He simply stopped continuing the topic, turned to Charles and said in a deep voice:
  "If you are worried, then send a few more armed agents, and I will find a way for them to keep up."

As he spoke, the old black man's face twitched, as if he was heartbroken. He took out a small bag from his arms, stretched out his thin index finger, picked out a handful of dark red crystal sand from the bag and flicked it.

The crystal sand instantly vaporized and turned into a trace of red air, floating towards a team of agents standing behind him.

As he cast the spell, the agents suddenly took a heavy breath and became energetic. They felt a steady stream of strength coming from their muscles. Not only did they move much more quickly, but even the equipment they carried on their backs seemed to become lighter. Nothing.

"It's okay now, I will continue to support them until they catch up with the target."

Several people tried to jump twice and nodded slightly to Charles to indicate that they were not feeling any discomfort.

Seeing that most of Charles' worries had subsided, he no longer hesitated. He looked around and said seriously:

"Then send four more people to join the battle order, Mr. Bob. I'll leave the rest to you."
